So, I thought I might share them with all of you for your reading enjoyment. These are a pretty incomplete list (especially for the last character, whose player was a late joined) and I hope to expand. If you have any suggestions, feel free!

"Mimsy" is an investigator of the occult with a whole heap of eccentric mannerisms. Also carries a set of magical bellows that have the ability to capture and store incorporeal beings. She's pretty great at picking up people's secrets and is often puzzled and frustrated why people don't pick up on 'such obvious' aspects of others (such as John's sexual preferences)

Jon made a bargain with infernal powers to learn the art of magic to seize control of the criminal underworld. He slew the demon who gave him his powers, however a minor clause meant that he inherited the office of that demon in the infernal hierachy. Jon seeks to use his powers and underworld influence to control what he sees as the 'necessary evil' of crime in London, but faces problems with both running an ethically sound criminal empire and not getting caught up in his new demonic nature. Most people know about his criminal career or his demonic abilities, but very rarely do they know of both.

Catherine Vandeermark aka "The Fat Lady" aka "Mistress Invulnerable"

A danish heiress who ran off to join the circus to escape complications at home. An experiment gave her near invulnerability to harm, allowing her to shrug off a direct cannonball blast to the face and merely shrug. Often acts in her costumed identity as "Mistress invulnerable". Also known for being quite rotund, as the fact that taste is the only physical sensation she can feel causes her to eat copious amounts.

Has the ability to crawl into people's skulls and control them, but also unlock the strange potential of normal humans, granting them strange powers.

The rest shall go to the stars: Unlock the strange abilities of ten humans.

The E.T solution: Visit Mars.

Creating Achievements
I made them entirely on my own, then I sent the entire list to the players and explained the point. I stressed that the players didn't have to pursue any of them and that it was mostly just for fun.

My aims in creating these were the following:

Suit the player's tastes
The Sontum of Qualace, The Thingy of Whatsit and The Something of Boris are all references to this video (well, actually another video for the same song, I just can't find the original) which the player really loves. I tried to make achievements that would lead to awesome gaming moments that the players would enjoy.

Reward the characters for using their abilities
I tried to make sure the achievements covered a wide range of skills and powers so they wouldn't just use the same thing all the time.

Reward the characters for working together
This is the basic aim of the achievements which require the character to enlist the aid of another. I'm also looking at making a few more that explore the relationships between characters as they evolve like It takes a thief (Miriam and Jon have found themselves working together despite having careers that would seemingly put them at odds with one another).

My own personal enjoyment
Th exercise of writing these was a lot of fun in itself and seeing players work towards them or watching people groan in reaction to Alien vs creditor is pretty much the icing on the cake.

Optional Rule: Unlock Bonus
The player don't know what the achievements are. They are created beforehand by the other players at the table. Then passed across to them when they've earned them. The GM can put in the 'unlock bonus' on the back of the achievement card.

• Get an XP bones or give them a specific kind of boost. +1d Hyper-Body if you're the one to go swimming in the Saurian Survivor's vats, and successfully retrieve the Eye of Carmindego from the polymorphic ooze.
• Session-level achievements thrown out for anyone to grab and try to play through. 
• "Fool for love - allow yourself to be seduced, and unquestionably at least one favor for your new lover." 
• As a way to push sub-optimal story-driving actions, this is so sweet and exploitable.
