R&D

"I like the boys in R&D. All they care about is knowledge - I respect that."

- Richard Drake

Research & Development is a division of the SOA that exist to study supernatural entities and objects, and develop effective countermeasures against them.

Unlike other divisions, there are two division heads. Benedict Meriweather is head of Magical R&D - appropriate for a 600 year old wizard. They do all the SOA's enchantments and magically investigate the nature of the universe. Rupert Biggs is head of Technological R&D. They use mundane science to figure out how things work, and make the gadgets.
