The Fall of LV-6329: An Aliens Universe Survival Game

[Urbanzorro]

Heeeeey... by any chance are you looking for a player to be an Alien?

If not, I'm still interested. Just wondering.

Sadly no, there isn't any opportunities to play a xenomorph, though I am glad you're still interested.

@CmdrRenegade

Am I too late to bring back my Seargeant?

I'm not going to step in and make a definitive decision I think it would be better if you and Kevben Battleheart talk it out between yourselves. If you guy's can't agree (which I doubt will happen given I've found you each to be nothing if not agreeable and courteous) then I'll step in .

[Kevben Battleheart]

Nahhh, no discussion will be needed. I shall back away from the position and instead make a normal squad member, unless enough members join, then I shall be the Sergeant for Squad 3. And as I said with Kuroneko, there definantly is enough badassery to go around.

[Michael Corvus]

I'd be interested in bringing Rome back to play, but I see someone else has already spoken for his smart gunner position.  Thoughts?

[Xenolord]

*Cry*

Anyhow... I think I'd like to take up the rank of a new squad member, either another gun, or an electronics expert, if you have need of one. Here's teh character sheet.

Image: Reference Picture.

Name: Arca Fields

Age: 23

Position in platoon/rank: Squad Member (or) Electronics Expert

Personal history: Arca joined the USCM when she was 20, fresh out of the academy. Though her chosen field is electronics, she has not shied away from combat training. While not the most accurate member of the squad, she is no chump with pistol or rifle, and isn't afraid to defend herself, or others. Volunteering for the LV-6329 Expedition, Arca hopes to lend her talents to her new squad, as well as hoping to survive.

I wasn't sure how Ranged Attack panned out, so I bs'd it. Hope it's right.

[Urbanzorro]

@ Everyone: I'm going to work out a little roster to see just who we have where, It should be up in a min or two Then I'll decide if we have grounds for a 2nd player character squad.

[Kuroneko]

Character Sheet

Image:

Name: Riska Danko

Age: 28

Position in platoon/rank: Smart Gunner/Gunnery Sargeant (E7)

Personal history: Riska is the youngest of five siblings and the only daughter in a career marine family.  With three of her four brothers in the Corps and her father highly placed in the enlisted ranks, it was only natural for her to join up as well.  Her natural ability with guns of all kinds brought her first to the sharpshooter and sniper ranks where she excelled in long-range weapons and target accuracy and then to the point gunner position in the platoon. She not only uses the weapons well, she understands how they work, how to take them apart, put them back together and how to repair or modify them when needed. 

Tall, strong, ahtletic and physically fit, Riska is always aware that as a gunner she is filling a role usually taken by a man, but long ago decided that she has already proven herself better than most other gunners, men included.  So now, she simply doesn't take any shit.  Growing up with four brothers taught her more than enough hand to hand skills to prove she has a right to her place in the platoon.  Seeing plenty of combat has made her cool under pressure, reliable and shown she's damn good at her job.  Besides, she gets to shoot the big gun and blow shit up.  What's not to like?   Loyal to her fellow marines, she always does her best to work with the other platoon members, and to cover their asses. However, lack of committment or stupidity on the part of her teammates makes her a bit twitchy. Riska gives 110% at all times, and expects the same from everyone around her.

Ok here's the roster as is so far.


1st Squad(Required)
3rd Squad Leader: Aiden (Mengsk)
3rd Squad's Sergeant: Cmdr Renegade (O'Shay)
1st Squad Smart Gunner:Kuroneko (Riska Danko)
1st Squad Flamethrower Man: Shihong(Character Name TBA)
1st Squad Member Ebb(Cooper)
1st Squad Member Kevben Battleheart (character Name TBA)
1st Squad Member XenoLord (Arca )
3rdSquad Synthetic: Haibane (Senjo)

3rd Squad (Optional)

3rd Squad's Sergeant:
3rd Squad Smart Gunner: Michael Corvus (Rome)
3rd Squad Flamethrower Man:
3rd Squad Member
3rd Squad Member
3rd Squad Member
3rd Squad Synthetic

As you can see we actually have 1st squad filled up already, which is very surprising considering how short an amount of time this interest check has been up for. SO I'm going to go ahead and open up 3rd squad. BUT each player will, for now at least, only be allowed 1 character. So if you'd like to switch to a position in 3rd squad please say so now and I'll switch you on my roster Also 3rd squad doesn't need to be 100% filled before we start the game. It can be, but given some of my plans it doesn't need to be

Age: 40

Position/ Rank: Platoon SGT/Master SGT

Personal History:  A Corp lifer, he doesn't know or want to know much else.  He's seen enough war and death to help him stay cool under pressure.  He tolerates no weakness in his men or in himself, but those who meet that standard see he has their best interest at heart.  He gets the job done and tries to bring home as many of his people as he can.

[Urbanzorro]

@Aiden, Cmdr Renegade, Kuroneko, and Ebb Characters Approved

@XenoLord You've only used 11 of your 20 Kit points, are you sure you wish to do this? Given that your pistol adds to your Attack and not Ranged Attack you currently have a Ranged Attack of zero.

[Kuroneko]

Awesome!  And now I must to bed.  Looking forward to starting the game 

[Michael Corvus]

Awww.... Rome got moved out of 1st squad and separated from the gang. :( Ah well,  he's a one man wrecking crew anyway. As Rome would say, "Bring it on baby! This shit builds your immune system! WOOO!"

[Urbanzorro]

Also it should be noted that the squad break up listed is not necessarily how the squads will be divided i.e. just because you're in 1st squad on my lil chart right now doesn't mean you'll be in it IC. I'll divide it as best fits the plot, right now this chart is just so that people can know what is and isn't open

[Haibane]

Hi Urban, the backstory we agreed on to cover Senjo's return is now redundant I think because most of Kilo Platoon under Mengsk survived "Jackie's Hope" so we need to rethink what happened on LV-1875.

Perhaps they were just lifted out once the computers determined the colonists were all dead and Jane and the - uh - interesting lifeform we met (whom I shall call 'Bob') came out with them?

I'm not sure what else we can say happened seeing as so many of Kilo are around.

(You know, I did say to you that if you simply reopened Kilo Platoon again, we'd most likely all just play on!)

[Xenolord]

It was 12 by my count, but yes, I'm sure. There's nothing else in that listing that would fit an electronics expert, but other then that, yep, I'm good. If there's something else you can recommend, I'll certainly consider it.

[Urbanzorro]

Well I'd recommend a pulse rifle. Even electronics experts would have received rifle training and would have needed to qualify with it to finish boot camp. Just as in the real life USMC. Also A slight edit for your back story is needed. At this point in time the xenomorphs' existence, and the existence of other aliens for that matter,  is not common knowledge and as such only those who are very high up on the USCM command chain, those involved with xenomorph research or those who had had first hand experience would be the only ones to even know of their existence much less any real info on  how they fight/work/ect.

If there is a change like that then we need to take all the returning characters to a PM...since something happened to Ceaser that he ended up changing his name to "Tychus"

[Zillah]

I would love to play Yui again, if that's at all possible. :)

EDIT: I didn't realize the roster was virtually filled already! :( So just please keep me in mind if someone drops out, then.

[Haibane]

There are positions free in 3rd Squad, Z, darling. Yui could have moved around in the platoon as Rome seems to have done.

I'm sure Yui will love being in 3rd Sqd with Rome for company... such a refreshing conversationalist!

[Urbanzorro]

Lol, there's also the fact that I may mix up the squad rosters a bit, the ones up right now are just to show which slots are open i.e. how many marines, flamethrower men/women, smartgunners, ect are open.

[Zillah]

Okay, sounds good. :)

Then please, put Yui in one of the flamethrower slots.
