read it. Zhùhǎo enjoyed the exploding bit at the end, but thinks she could've done better. Needed more flair.

Roen

Kingmaster1 and myself are still working on our character applications for the Overwatch and The Heavy, so you know. Sorry for holding you back :P

I have in mind as a heavy, but I could change her weapons/skills to a support role, like a medic.



Player: vin26m
Name: Valorie Sinn , aka "Malice," aka "Mistress"
Actual Age: 30
Apparent Age: 30
Gender: Female.
Sexuality: Bisexual.
Appearance: 5'2", 110 pounds, brown hair, brown eyes, tan skin, lean, muscular.
Nationality: Confederated America States (CAS), Mexican-American
Languages spoken: English, Spanish
Modifications: Military grade cranial impant.  Boosted senses and reflexes.  Muscle augmentation and toner.  Bone lacing.  Dermal armor.  Two retractable Wolverine claws.  Cybereyes with low-light, thermograph, flare compensation.  Biomonitor with adrenaline autoinjector. 
Specific skills and abilities: Malice is a qualified expert with all small arms and heavy weapons in terms of their usage, maintenance, modification and repair.  She is also a combat veteran with experience in multiple environments.  Her interrogation methods are ruthless, barbaric and effective.
Weapons and/or equipment: M57 Smartgun with articulator arm, weapon harness and guided projectiles with settings for explosive, armor piercing, incendiary, slug and stun ammunition.  Tactical shotgun with net, bola, stun, slug and shot rounds.  Tactical pistol.  Small case with electrical and surgical instruments.
Weakness: Malice's abrasiveness and ego often get her into trouble.
Personality: Malice is arrogant and proud, doesn't take shit from anyone, and loves to pick fights of the verbal and physical kind.  She hates incompetent leadership and foolish risks. 
Bio: One of a set of triplets, Malice grew up in a rough, poor, urban hellhole in the southeastern United States with a single mom and a deadbeat dad.  Her only way out was to join the Marines with whom she got to travel the world, killing the new people she met and destroying the property she set foot on, visiting old hellholes and creating new ones, just like her home.

With her impressive physique and pretty face, she became a poster girl for the corps to recruit women.  She has trained in jungle warfare, arctic warfare, desert warfare, mountain warfare, and SERE (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, Escape).  Malice has gotten her hands on nearly every model of weapon the world has ever known, many times having taken them from dead enemies when she ran out of ammo.  Malice has also fed her dominant, sadistic nature by learning techniques in anatomy, physiology, restraints and torture.

On her last mission with the Confederated American States Marine Corps, her commanding officer insisted on calling in unnecessary danger close fire missions on "suspicious" villages which risked the unit, wasted air strikes, and leveled unoccupied buildings for the sake of earning the CO medals and commendations.  When Malice saw the coordinates the CO was calling in, she told the CO that the coordinates were invalid.  She moved the rest of the men to safety while the air strike landed on the CO.  She was dishonorably discharged and became a mercenary for hire.

She spends her time firing weapons, fixing weapons, lifting weights or sexually dominating multiple sexual partners.  She lives for combat, and plans to die in it.


Roen

Right, here is my submission for the role of Overwatch, a sniper. To be followed with Kingmaster1's submission of a heavy :P


Player: Roen
Name: Eve. Also Subject Eve203948.01
Actual Age: 21
Apparent Age: About 17
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Deducting from the vast number of copulation partners she have had during her life (1), she's empirically a heterosexual.
Appearance: 5'4" tall, at a weight of 117 Lbs, she has a long pitch-black wavy hair, though originally a redhead, which you could notice by the paleness of her ivory skin, No piercing, one tattoo- a micro barcode on her inner navel skin. 
Nationality: Apple Inc.
Languages spoken: English, French, German, Italian, Chinese (mostly Mandarin, but she can understand Wu and Yue), Japanese, Arabic, Hebrew and the occasional Klingon (one of the developers' idea of a joke)*
Modifications:
-Untraceable cranial implant, extensively modified with advanced marksmanship strategy nerv-catalysts, optimizing her real-time strategic algorithms, probability assessments and the various required calculations, speeding her perception in times of intense battle to see everything in slow motion, thus making her able to react almost inhumanly fast and focus on and execute multiple objectives in a shorter period of time- almost simultaneously. Basically, it turns her into a walking-talking computerized and extremely versatile sniper rifle.   
-Telescopic optic implants embedded into her Cornea, allowing her the option of zooming in on distant locations. It would also serve to enhance night and thermal vision.
Specific skills and abilities:
-Built in night/telescopic/thermal vision.
-Extensive sniping training, she's thoroughly versed in most sniping rifles, single-shot bolt action rifles, her favorite rifle of choice is a variation of the L115A3 AWM, though she has been known to use one of the AA-12 sledgehammer when stealth is less needed. She was trained with Laser guns, mostly experimental developments of the company, but seeing as those are not very practical for mobile units, let alone an agent designated to working in the shadows, she classifies it as irrelevant.
-Agile. She is extremely agile and acrobatic, easily able to find her way out of sticky situations that require a quick and sometimes impossible escape, which also means she can avoid blows in close quarters, even though not very effective in landing them.
Weapons and/or equipment:
-Light body suit, with Kevlar plates located where they won't impair her movement.
-Her guns: L115A3 AWM, AA-12 sledgehammer, Beretta 92 with a silencer, a Taser Gun and a sawed off M16 (because you can't beat the classics)
-A basic burglar's kit, so she could infiltrate her 'nests' (the high spots which she settles in to do her sniping), along with a mobile and very basic security system hack, in cases of emergency extractions where the resident Sys-Op won't be available.
Weakness:
-Unstable: she's a bit of a wild card; she was extracted from the Apple institute prematurely, at the middle of her psychological profile reconstruction process. Sometimes she can be a bit out-there, prone to panic attacks. What she needs during those times is her big brother to calm her down and reassure her.
-Physically Weak: her hand-to-hand and melee training programs haven't been completed before she got bailed out of the institute. Disarmed and cornered by a physically capable individual, without her brother there to protect her, she will be completely defenseless.
-Not of nature's design: She was designed exclusively by and for the Apple corporation, they modified her genes extensively, and manipulated her mind as well, planting all sorts of psychological triggers and physical anomalies that could be set off at any given moment. The possibilities are countless as they are unpredictable. I will leave that entirely up to the GM, respectfully :) 
Personality: Eve is mostly a pretty quiet young women, keeps to herself, prefers small and closed spaces, a bit of an agoraphobic individual, you could say. She can come off as intense at times, and unresponsive at others, depending on her current psychological state of mind. She can be sweet, mostly to her older brother, and those she trusts- although she's extremely picky about them. To say she is ruthless would be an overstatement; she does what her brother asks of her, and takes orders from those that he has asked her to obey. She will get the mission done, without any sentiments this way or the other. Objectives must be achieved- it's as simple as that.

Bio:
Apple Corp.'s genetic laboratories and training facilities are the only home she has ever known. Throughout her young life she has been poked and prodded at. Sleeping, eating, undressing and effectively living behind glass walls, inside of a see-through cage, with at least one individual in a lab coat watching her at all times, usually taking notes. Every test score, every statistic, every response, every sigh, pant and cry of pain, every breath and blink all registered and analyzed by a platoon of scientists, behavioral specialists, special force trainers etc. It was her father that did this to her. Of course, she never knew him as her father; she called him "Professor D". He was the head of the team that led the 16 years long project to create the perfect soldier: A spy, a hacker, a sniper and a warrior, all in one genetically modified individual, programmed to hail in the next generation of trafficked mercenaries, superior in many fields, but mostly by the fact of their morally uninhibited methods of acquirement (genetically engineered, not "real humans") and the versatility of the projects. Apple's new line of products- The iSoldier.

After created in the labs, using cells from her older brother, Eve was immediately introduced to a world of cruel testing and training, psychological manipulations, various unpleasant diets, countless and relentless lessons, uncompromising expectations and the cold and inquisitive stares of the scientists that were her handlers, teachers and wardens. That was probably the most damaging injustice she suffered by the hand of the company, the lack of human warmth, not a kind eye- let alone a kind touch- throughout her life at the institute. She didn't miss it, she never knew any better, but the same thing wasn't true about Professor D. He, who only agreed to manage the project in order to grant his dead wife's only wish, to birth a daughter, had to witness her suffering for a long time, evidently too long, long enough for the pragmatic and cynical scientist to grow remorseful and sentimental.

He wanted to free her, liberate her from all the cruel experiments, the inhumane expectations and monstrous fate the Apple Corporation has designed for her once she was 'done'. Knowing that the company would never allow it, he worked hard to make preparations to her escape… too hard, it seems, as the company was soon on to him and had him eliminated. Professor Dewitt, however, was clever, clever enough to be crafty, crafty enough to realize they were never going to let him free her, so he made arrangements to make sure someone would follow in his footsteps in case anything happened to him, namely his son, Adam DeWitt.

Following his father's plans and using his contacts, Adam was able to rescue Eve, and meet his younger sister for the first time. The two had an immediate connection, a bond like no other. He was her rescuer, her angel, with kindness in his eyes and softness in his voice, he treated her like a fragile china figurine, but his warmth promised more, much more. The protective bond soon turned into a more passionate one, her guardian angel also became her lover, slowly and patiently teaching her the subtle ways of love and carnal pleasure, and she indulged every last second of their stolen heated moments, while still on the run. Five years have passed since they first started to run, doing as best as they could to make sure Apple has lost their scents, before trying to find a new home. That home could never be a respectable legal one, so they went with the next best thing- a secured one, the Iron Fist organization, joining in as a team of two: a tank and his young sister of a sniper.     

*I know you wanted us to take on mostly languages we can actually speak, but Eve was designed as a universal soldier, being fluent in multiple languages is sort of a given. I'll try and live up to that overreaching standard.

kingmaster1


Player: Kingmaster1

Name: Adam DeWitt

Actual Age: 25

Apparent Age: 21

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Bi-sexual

Appearance: Adam holds a muscular build, standing at 6"4' with dirty blonde hair and short, blonde stubble across his jaw. His eyes are a deep blue color with hints of grey circling on the sides. A scar also decorates the center of his chest, traveling from one side of his chest straight to the other. It's large and very noticeable when he's shirtless, otherwise, of course, it's hidden.

Nationality: Apple

Languages spoken: English, French, and Japanese

Modifications: 1. Standard cranial implant with software to stop it being tracked.
2. An exoskeleton armor that covers over his abdomen, front to back and also heals damage taken to it like his normal skin.
3. Gatling gun extension for his arm and ammo pocket in his upper bicep, holding 2100 rounds of standard M50 ammunition.

Specific skills and abilities: High tolerance for pain. Bullets will not stop him in combat nor will a knife in his chest. He will be able to shrug off pain, but, of course, not the damage they deal. He can't mend the wounds, he can simply ignore them. Of course, a bullet through a key area will have the same effect on him as on someone else.

Knife fighting

weapon repairing. Adam knows a great deal about the design and creation of weaponry. He's learned how to assemble a normal hand gun, blindfolded, in less than five minutes. He especially knows the abilities of heavy weaponry, fixing jams or breaks in a matter of moments. He will gladly fix someone's gun if they give the right price.

He's also a decent cook.

Weapons and/or equipment: Gatling gun attachment, .45 magnum kept strapped to side, one brass knuckle knife strapped to thigh for close combat.

Weakness: His sister will persist to be a weakness for him as he will put himself on the line for her protection, often getting badly injured in the process of it.

His high tolerance for pain will also prove to be a double edged sword as, while ignoring bad wounds, they will still pile up, forcing him to get medical attention before he looses too much blood.

Personality: Adam is a normally easy going and calm man, trying to stay that way in an effort to keep his sister sane. Everything he does that he has control over will have the underlying goal to keep Eve safe and secure. Her mental state is always on his mind. He is a brave man and will always do what he must to finish his assignment. Though his worry could be a double edged sword for the length he will go on account of his sister's well being.

Bio: Before his birth Adam's parents were scanned for genes of their child and, after Adam's own abilities came to light, the corporation decided to act. The day of his birth they took a sample of his DNA to a laboratory and began working on something. Adam was, of course, kept in the dark about all of this and lived a normal enough life with his father. His mother died giving birth to him.

He was happy, though a bit lonely being an only child. He was always close to his father, who would often treat his son to sights from atop the Apple building, beautiful sights that always stayed in his mind. He would live his life in ignorance of what apple was doing in their laboratory for most of his life, at least until his father died.

One morning he awoke to an empty home and he went to look around, he decided his father had gone to work early and planned a day relaxing. When the time came for his father to come home, he didn't, instead came two men in black suits giving him the news of a terrible accident. His father had been hit by a runaway semi and crushed, he was dead. At the news Adam felt like he would go into a nervous breakdown, he had no family now.

In memory of his father he went to the top of the apple building for another view of the city and, when he got up there, he was treated to the amazing view he always loved. He stood there for hours, thinking of his father, thinking of the life he'd lead. When suddenly he noticed something, a white envelope stuck under a brick in the wall. He pulled it out and read it, it was from his father.

The letter read as such:

Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide
Dear Adam,
If you're reading this, then I am dead. I couldn't live with the lie that I'd been feeding you for so long, so I've decided to tell you the whole story. When your mother passed, I was devastated, I'd lost her in gaining you but there was still a hole. To fill it, I agreed to an experiment the corporation put forward. It was a genetic manipulation program designed to build the perfect assassin. The reason I agreed to this was...well, your mother always wanted a daughter, so I wanted to give her one in her memory.

They took some of your DNA when you were born and began the process. When you turned five they labeled this girl, "Eve" they call her, alive. The experiment was a success. For the last twenty years she's been trained in the art of combat and murder, she is the ultimate weapon. Or, she would be if it weren't for her mental state.

Adam, I promise you that I've wanted to free Eve, let you have the sister you always wanted. They wouldn't allow it. She was their property and they wouldn't let her go. I tried to free her, make the experiment public but I think they're on to me and they'll probably try to have me killed. I'm sorry for all of this son. But please, please rescue your sister

Sincerely, Professor Jason DeWitt.

The letter shocked him to say the least. After that he made it his goal to rescue his sister, by any means necessary.

In a bloody conquest of the building he succeeded, stealing an arm modification of the company's own design and using it against them with is own modifications to it. He shot his way into the laboratory and found her, his sister Eve.

That was the beginning of their life together and he doesn't regret anything.

This is mine! I will fight to the death for it's involvement!!

Love it!

I am definitely approving both characters - but you sort of knew that from our PM discussion.

I'm trying very hard to look for things I don't like in both of them.

As discussed, Adam will be keeping his sister's weaknesses from the team, because if they come to light, there is likely to be blood!

@ Vin

I'm somewhat reluctant to approve a character who wants to be called "Mistress", especially with that line about hating incompetent leadership... Not that Maj. Laughton is incompetent, but she has an over-inflated opinion of her own abilities...

Please note that this is my game and I will be running it my way. With so few players, it is crucial that everyone work together, and I will not appreciate attempts to take over or re-direct the game.

Please check out my latest A/A post.

Malice is her combat name.  Mistress is her name in the bedroom.

Malice will support Laughton as long as Laughton puts the soldiers and the mission first.  Laughton is a combat vet which Malice can respect.  Malice will give Laughton some slack, but won't do something suicidal.  Her previous commander put his own career ahead of his men's safety, which was unacceptable to Malice.

I like how you run games and I plan on working together with you and the other players.  I've played other group games and I've gotten along fine with the players and GMs.  The events that happened in Millennium were specific to Haibane.  Basically, she and I clashed in a way in which I have never clashed with another RPer.  She's a gifted writer, but she and I just can't RP together.  I can go into my side of the story in PMs if you want - what you saw in OOC is the tip of the iceberg compared to what happened in PMs.

I understand your misgivings, but I'm still very much interested in a violent, somewhat amoral game in which inactive characters are eliminated.  How about if you accept Malice, we'll see how she fits in in terms of how I play her?  And if you find that you don't like her or the way I play her, kill her off and we'll go our separate ways, no hard feelings.



Chrystal

In fact I had already pre-approved Roen and king as we were discussing their characters by PM.

You are not the only player to be disappointed.

If a place opens up I will consider you.
