JOSHUA VANDERGILD
Also Known As: Josh, but only to close friends and family
Occupation: CEO of Vandergild Megacorporation
Specialty: Business

Origin and Background: Joshua was born the son of business mogul Maximillion Vandergild. 

Ten years ago, he was kidnapped by a shadowy organization A.N.N.E.X., now well believed destroyed by MI6.  He was held for several days by a woman known only as Anna before Pippa Royce rescued him, and he rarely speaks of the experience. 

Despite Maximillion staying well out of the limelight, Glam Squad files indicate that he was injected with Agent Zed a few years ago, a chemical toxin that allows for a sort of mind control in the short term, leaving the individual open to suggestion, but usually breaks down the victim's psyche.  Now receiving extensive therapy, whether he'll recover is a question that will only be answered with time.  Joshua wasn't the oldest, but out of Maximillion's five children, he was easily the best candidate to take over as CEO.

When Pippa later wanted to start up her own agency, Joshua was all too happy to provide the funds, though she's insisted on paying back every penny, and has.

Although he hasn't met many of her agents yet, he hopes to, and each has an open invitation to meet him on his private island.

Abilities/Skills/Gadgets:

Wealth - The only reason Joshua isn't an outright billionaire is because of the money he's spent on upgrading his island.  Even so, his various bank accounts measure up in the hundreds of millions.

His island - Veridian Isle - has an elaborate mansion (with all the beautiful amenities one might expect, including a swimming pool), a beautiful beach, a private jet and airstrip, various sporting areas such as a boxing ring and shooting/archery ranges, and an elaborate hedge maze obstacle course that's constantly being upgraded, rebuilt, and improved upon.  As agents of Glam Squad send in various requests, he does what he can to accommodate.  The few staff on the island have been very carefully vetted, and are told to make sure anyone from Glam Squad has as perfect a stay as possible.

Connections - Part of the reason money gives power is because everyone wants it, and anyone who owns a business is able to nudge the employees in any particular direction he might like.  Political candidates who receive donations know that those donations can evaporate if the candidates don't follow "polite requests," and while Joshua rarely makes his own selfish requests, he's known for asking for various things without having it be easily traced back to Glam Squad.

One of his subsidiary companies, The Ivory Mask, specializes in creating false identities and fake businesses that can provide airtight cover for Glam Squad members.  A handful of other rich and elite privately use the business as well, with the employees of The Ivory Mask under the impression that they're covering for unscrupulous elites.  Various employees pretend to be receptionists for businesses that don't exist, maintain websites, even pretend to be coworkers or old flames.  When dealing with exceptional shadowy organizations, a few fake identities have been designed to be pierced just so as to convince the investigator that the Glam Squad agent is really just yet another fake identity, which The Ivory Mask firmly believes.

Cutting-Edge Tech - Joshua maintains the height of his own personal security and cybersecurity, and it's not uncommon for a Glam Squad agent to be requested to test Emerald Isle's safety.  His hope is to create a secret communication network that Glam Squad will be able to use for the next twenty years, and as technology improves and it becomes obsolete, eventually sell to the public when Glam Squad has even better.  True abilities are limited, but he's got a neural transmitter that can send and receive heavily encrypted text messages without having to do anything but think.

Appearance: Now in his mid-twenties, 6'1", preferring well-pressed suits but rather buff beneath, usually clean-shaven but sometimes he lets himself go a bit while he doesn't have any meetings.

Personality: The first impression he gives is one of kind, friendly professionalism.  Certainly he loves to meet various other Glam Squad agents and welcomes them to Veridian Isle even without warning.  His detractors claim that he's only interested in sleeping with all the agents, and he's certainly not uninterested, but it's not all he wants for them.  Others speculate that, ever since being kidnapped as a teenager, he only truly feels safe with an agent of Glam Squad nearby.

His Glam Squad file lists a story where one of the earlier agents named Nicole Xeres (now unfortunately deceased) told him flat out that she was only interested in women.  He smiled, told her, "Hey, me too," and offered her a fistbump in solidarity, remaining entirely friendly and keeping her welcome but avoiding making her uncomfortable with further flirting.

Flaws:

Zero Combat Training - While still tone, in shape, and more than capable of regular exercise, he knows next to nothing of martial arts.  Even a basic agent of Glam Squad, fresh from training, could mop the floor with him without breaking a sweat.  He never carries weapons and has zero interest in learning either armed or unarmed combat.

Psychological Damage - He doesn't talk about what happened to him with Anna, but it's not hard to tell that he sees her as his first teenage crush.  There's a tiny hole in his heart that most people are able to fill with love, and his psych evaluation isn't certain whether it will fill with time, though it likely will.  An agent getting him in bed is easy, but winning his heart may not be possible.

Virtually Sterile - Likely as the result of a chemical given to him during his kidnapping, Joshua appears to be incapable of siring children.  Doctors estimate the possibility of his causing a pregnancy as roughly the same as getting struck by lightning on the drive to turning in a winning lottery ticket.  It's well known that if he ever does cause a pregnancy, and the mother is willing to get a DNA test to confirm it's his own child, he'll be exceptionally happy to ensure that the child is properly raised, cared for, and perhaps even take their place as the CEO of Vandergild Megacorporation someday.  However, no doubt his siblings would also surreptitiously step in, wanting to coerce the woman into an abortion so that they, or their own children, have the option of being selected for the opportunity. 

Ons/Offs: https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=102977.0

Extras: Even if your character hasn't met Joshua yet, it's more than possible that he's heard a personal request for a particular addition to the island weeks or months back, and has since had it added.  Thus, if you want Veridian Isle to have a climbing wall, a technology lab full of half-finished gadgets, a beach patio with a bar, a room in the mansion specifically for yoga, or whatever else, I'm happy to say it's already there if it's something one of the agents would want.  It's more fun to leave things open and let the PCs have whatever they want rather than try to design a highly-specified location before I know what all the PCs would even want. 

If your character mentions the place not having something, I'll assume that it's because you the player don't want it to be available yet.  If that's the case, it's possible one of the agents had a drunken bender and accidentally burned it down.

Similarly, I'm more than happy with other PCs controlling staff members under the assumption that they're loyal, reasonably friendly/polite, and have had their backgrounds thoroughly checked before being hired onto the island.  (Naturally, Foxy has permission to say that particular unscrupulous staff members somehow got through the cracks in accordance with whatever stories she might invent.)  Having a wo/man ready with a fresh mimosa after practicing at the shooting range, or a chauffer/chauffeuse to drive the agent from the airstrip to the mansion, or a technical assistant whose job it is to grab a 3/8" screwdriver off the rack ("No, that's not a 3/8", that's a 1cm!  Give me a 3/8!") is more than welcome.  However, a butler who gets fresh and smacks an agent on the butt will be fired in the amount of time it takes for her to suplex him. (I guess you can write one of those if you want to, but he won't be a recurring character unless the agent explicitly requests he be kept on.)

[Nowherewoman]

Does he have maids?  A pretty chef?  Tali will be ALL over the staff...   


I'm kidding. Mostly.

...mostly   /e Newt


Sounds like a cool place to hang out- and for the Boss to meet potential clients at swank parties

[AndyZ]

Definitely has maids.  Most likely has a pretty chef ^_^

I'm toying with the idea that he's got a hawt but somewhat vacuous sister who'd never make it into Glam Squad but has an interest in the ladies.  I'll have to pitch it to Foxy later if I decide to go for it.

[AndyZ]

And yes, posting that various maids keep sneaking into/out of Tali's guest room is totally okay ^_^

[Nowherewoman]

For those wondering, Tali's nickname 'skux' is a Kiwi slang term roughly equivalent to 'playah'. It's usually applied to guys, I gather, so it's kind of a joke with her.

[Levi]

This is looking like so much fun but I just dont think I can dedicate the time right now. Might follow the rule of 4 and make one to add later :)

[Foxy DeVille]

Okee doke, I really like the characters thus and I'm getting pretty excited. Now in addition to office peeps I gotta have a lil' fun in the field too so here's what every elite espionage unit has... a teenage stoner chemical weapons expert.

LUCY SCHUYLER-DIAMENT
Also Known As: Ellis Dee
Cover Occupation: Make-up artist
Specialty: Chemical weapons and countermeasures

Origin and Background: Born and raised in Palo Alto, California, Lucy’s mother and father are a renowned painter and medical doctor respectively. Both have been very active in charitable causes and social justice efforts. They have been very supportive of their daughter, who proved to be quite gifted creatively and academically. When she was just fourteen Lucy started attending UC Santa Cruz, majoring in biology and chemistry. Although the campus was only 45 minutes away from home her parents decided to let her live in the dorms so she could have the full college experience. This may not have been wise because although she excelled in her studies Lucy also became immersed in the counterculture environment of the university. During her junior year when she was seventeen Lucy was arrested for manufacturing and distributing designer drugs on campus.Although she gave a very detailed summary about the safety of her product, Lucy was expelled and sentenced to home confinement. During this time she started a YouTube channel doing make-up tutorials under the name Ellis Dee, a play on her initials, in order to pass the time. It gained a decent but not exceptional following. On her eighteenth birthday her cords were sealed and she was free to go where she wished. A British woman was waiting outside her house to offer her a job. For the last ten months Lucy has been employed as a beautician for Glamour International but her real worth is concocting a variety of useful chemicals for the Glam Squad.

Abilities/Skills/Gadgets:

Better Living Through Chemistry: Lucy is a genius at coming up with a variety of chemical substances… tranquilizers, antitoxins, hallucinogens, aphrodisiacs, truth serums, etc. When on a mission she typically has a small arsenal on her disguised as cosmetics.

  Let’s Play Doctor: Her general interest in the human body led Lucy to take some medical training, making her the equivalent of an EMT or combat medic. Also her doctor dad is always happy to take her calls.

  Easy Breezy Beautiful: Lucy inherited her mother’s artistic touch, which she has used to become very talented at make-up. She knows other skills of the modern cosmetologist too… hair, nails, skin care, aromatherapy, massage, etc.

  Rock Your Body: Her parents placed her in voice and dance lessons as a child, which she currently utilizes in her band Lucy and the Sky With Diamonds, a shoegazing Beatles cover act. Other fave physical activities include yoga, hiking, and swimming.

Appearance: Lucy is a pale redhead, although her hair color does change on occasion. She is of average height and slim with a pretty good physique. She typically dresses like she just woke up after a hard night of partying, which is frequently true. A lot of her outfits are pretty revealing, showing off her tummy and teasing with some underboob or sideboob. Lucy has several piercing and small tattoos that she got clandestinely when she was younger as even her open-minded parents were iffy on their child permanently marking herself.

Personality: Many people think Lucy is high all the time when really… OK, she’s high all the time. She comes across as flighty and distracted , yet remains very efficient at handling her responsibilities. Lucy’s personal politics are pretty far to the left, Pippa was able to convince her to join her black ops agency by stressing her desire to do what governments wouldn’t. The free reign Lucy has to develop her concoctions also appealed to her. In general her mindset has been heavily influenced by the 1960s hippie movement and the 1990s rave scene. Lucy collects music and memorabilia from those eras.

Flaws: As shocking as this sounds, being a chronic drug user sometimes makes Lucy unreliable. She’s fine at her normal level of intoxication but every once in a while even she has a bad trip. In spite of the fact she’s employed by a freelance mercenary unit, Lucy doesn’t like violence. She won’t take hand-to-hand training or even touch a gun if she can avoid it. She also tends to see the best in people, giving some the benefit of the doubt they don’t deserve.

Ons/Offs: Lucy is pansexual and polyamorous, firmly believing that all pleasure is good as long everything is consensual and nobody gets hurts. She’s something of an exhibitionist that enjoys being nude whenever she can as well as group sex. Lucy even has an OnlyFans account under her screen name Ellis Dee as she is turned on by the thought of people watching her. That’s her reward, the money she makes from it is donated to charity. Lucy loves rough sex where the people involved give into their natural urges and get wild. She is an anal aficionado and connoisseur of watersports, but messier kinks than that don’t appeal to her. Thanks to her genius in chemistry, Lucy has designed a number of sex enhancing drugs.

Ok, but why male models?

Rough draft of Anastasia. I'm willing to tweak most of it, just let me know.

Anastasia Valentine
Also Known As: The Librarian, Heels, know it all, Queen of Hearts
Cover Occupation: Cultural and geopolitical advisor, sometimes model.

Side job as a research specialist for Jeopardy!

Specialty: Knowledge.

Origin and Background: The product of a Russian KGB agent and a CIA analyst, Anastasia has spying in her blood. Portions of her childhood are classified to this day. Anastasia attended Yale from ages 16 to 23. She claims to have degrees in psychology, computer science, and history, though sometimes she jokes that her entire college career was spent at the midwifery program.

It wasn't at all hard for Pippa to flatter Anastasia's ego enough to get her to join the team.

Abilities/Skills/Gadgets: Communications, finding things quickly, trivia, knowing a lot. Good with computers, and a decent hacker. For some reason has an almost encyclopedic knowledge of bomb disposal techniques. Better than average at aikido, but far from an expert.

Uses a dart pistol with sleeping drugs. Often carries a stun baton, and loves her wrist mounted tranquilizer dart launchers as well. Typical gear includes an electronic lock unscrambler, various bits of computer thingamajig,

Appearance: Tall pale, really red headed and usually dressed to kill. Not that she believes in killing. Enjoys being looked at and attention, but has immense disdain for the people who drool all over themselves. Yes, the tight or very loose top IS a test.

Personality: Anastasia prefers to listen over talk, but can expound at great lengths on her favorite topics. She is confident in her abilities, but very used to being off in her own little world. Sometimes she comes across as standoffish or even bitchy. Her sense of humor can be as dry as a bone in the desert, or cutting like the sandstorms.

Flaws: Needs her glasses or contacts to see. Too squeamish to put in her own contacts.
Absolutely not a front line fighter, and won't kill.
Very susceptible to dominant women, especially if they show some persuasion and brainpower skills instead of just relying on looks or physical touch or sluttyness. Addicted to heels, dresses, and corsets.

Ons/Offs: Women, femme women with skills and brains, soft butch ladies with a kind heart. Being seduced by sapiosexual ladies.

Bondage, locking clothes, being locked in a cage with books, anal, fancy dresses, not being in charge in the bedroom, cooking in an apron, being cooked for by a beautiful woman in an apron. Ponyplay.

Offs: Blood, guns, gore, violence. People expecting her to debate the minute of computers or cars. Car nerds who talk about it past when her eyes glaze. Getting dirty. Forgetting her book, or worse, her Kindle.

AMANDA DE WINTER

Also Known As: Mandy; Milady
Cover Occupation: Fashion Model
Specialty: Hurting and killing people—specializing in doing so unarmed

Origin and Background

A military brat with two career Marine Corps parents, Mandy spent most of her life on East and Southeast Asian military bases. From an early age, hapkido taught Mandy the value of discipline, and she never became the stereotypical rebellious teenager though her severe dyslexia made school a lifelong challenge for her. Gifted linguistically, she quickly picked up the local languages wherever she traveled, and if not for her struggles in school, she would have made an excellent intelligence analyst. Leaving school at sixteen without a diploma, Mandy spent a year backpacking throughout Southeast Asia, working odd jobs and staying in hostels, before stumbling into freelance wetwork for various American alphabet agencies looking for plausible deniability. After two years as a government contract killer, nineteen-year-old Mandy found herself recruited by newly formed Glamour International, as one of their first models—and assassins.

Abilities/Skills/Gadgets

Me hurt you! An expert in hand-to-hand combat, Mandy is a fifth dan black belt in hapkido and has also trained in jujutsu, aikido, and karate.

Awake at five! A strict diet, in combination with regular combat training, keeps Mandy in excellent physical condition.

Never know! Maintains a small arms qualification, though she prefers to kill with her hands and feet, and rarely carries a gun.

Doesn't bother me! Mandy is aware of remorse as a concept.

You don't say! In addition to English, Mandy speaks several South East Asian languages at a fluent level.

Appearance

Tall for a girl and attractive enough to turn heads, Mandy has long dark brown hair and eyes that can appear blue or green depending on the light and what she's wearing. On her own time, when not undercover or playing at being a fashion model, Mandy adheres to a philosophy of less is more: no jewelry, a t-shirt or crop top, jeans sans panties, and, if shoes are absolutely necessary, a pair of Keds without socks.

Personality

Fun-loving and irrepressible mischievous, Mandy is a known prankster among the agents she works with at Glamour International—a reputation seemingly at odds with her chilling ability to commit cold-blooded murder and gratuitous acts of violence with no remorse.

Flaws

Severely dyslexic, Mandy is a slow error-prone reader and prefers to receive briefings verbally. Due to her dyslexia, she also did poorly in school, eventually tuning much of it out, and has eccentric and sometimes startling gaps in her academic knowledge. Despite her lethality, Mandy isn't as physically strong as a man and tries to avoid situations that rely on strength.

Ons/Offs

While Mandy will flirt aggressively with men, she is a lesbian and will only sleep with other women. If she goes into the bedroom with a man, chances are, he isn't walking back out. With sexual partners, she is assertive and domineering, enjoying light BDSM play such as blindfolds, handcuffs, hot wax, and ice.

Really dig her and feel a strange kinsmanship over wearing glasses because of being unable to put in contacts. Both me and my lil' sis nope out when it comes to putting anything in out eyes. 

One wee quibble is that she should have a cover at Glamour International. The Jeopardy! job does make me giggle so she could still do that while having another gig. With all the traveling models do maybe some sort of consultant on countries and cultures so the pretty faces don't get into trouble. Or whatever you might think up.

I'm still grinning over that.

NAME HERE Carmen Ortega-Ruiz
Also Known As: Sunshine
Cover Occupation: Driver / Courier
Specialty: Transport

Origin and Background:

Born and raised on the streets of Miami, FL she was around cars her entire life.  Both of her brothers and father were shade tree mechanics catering to the less savory racers and gangsters of the area.  Carmen's mother was dancer at nightclubs in the area.  She split her time between the impromptu garage of her father and the coat rooms of dance clubs for much of her youth.  Fearful of child services in a new country her parents kept her out of school for much of her life.  In truth her first formal education came after she was sent to jail for joyriding in a police car.  From there she was in and out of jail as she kept being released into foster care, running away to her parents and then back to jail for once offense or another.  Eventually she was simply released to her parents with a promise of sending her to school. 

School lead her into more trouble as she started to run with what would be called "the wrong crowd."  People heard about her exploits and wanted her to drive for them.  This spiraled into a career with the criminal elements as a street racer and also a get-away driver.  For a time she even made her racing career onto legitimate areas with drift competitions, small racing circuits and even a stent as a car model but eventually she always fell back to the criminal elements.  The final came when she was part of a bank robbery, leading the Dade County Sheriff's department on a wild chase that nearly killed more than one person.  From there she went to the adult prison.

Glam found her as she was coming out on parole and has extended her a job along with legal services to keep her out of prison again.

Abilities/Skills/Gadgets:

Anything with an engine: While at home on the road, she has applied her natural skills to both the sky and the water under the tutelage of Glam.  She has no fear when it comes to driving and has lead lengthy police chases to distract entire departments along with outrunning mobster on busy streets.  She seems to  have an intuitive nature when it comes to driving and what the vehicle is able to do under her control.

Urban Jungle: She is at home in the city.  Born and raised in Miami she knows how the manuever club scenes, busy streets and the urban sprawl.  Catching her out in nature would be by accident.  She is also proficient is simply disappearing into a crowd.  People describing her in passing just remark that she was a pretty, young girl with dark hair.

Brawler: She isn't formally trained in any style but she has been in enough fights to know how to take a hit and give one in return.  She is also prone to using whatever is around as a weapon.


Appearance:

Most people notice her wide smile and bright eyes.  Carmen earned her nickname Sunshine from both the state she comes from and her habit of always smiling.  Standing at five feet and five inches she is not an imposing woman.  Typically, she wears baggy clothing or what some might consider urban chic with yoga pants and beanies.  Such clothing fails to reveal an athletic body obtained from a daily regiment of running and exercise.  Often her dark hair is kept long, cinched only in a pony tail.  Carmen has done work for Glam on some of their more urban outfitter contracts but prefers to keep herself in the driver seat rather than in front of a camera.

Personality:

Happy-go-lucky with mood swings is pretty much where she rests.  Sunshine has deep passions for family and friends which can cause her to become intense and emotional very quickly.  Usually though she just takes life as it comes figuring that everything will work out in the end.  A life of hardship has taught her that the only thing she can control is herself and so she lets Fate, God, or the flow of the universe take the rest.

Flaws:

Carmen can be quick to anger if she feels her friends or family are threatened leading to some rash behavior that she then shrugs off later.  This has gotten her into a lot of trouble in her life and cost her many a job.  So far she enjoys her work enough to keep her calm but even she knows that the clock is ticking. 

There is little in the way of formal training for Carmen.  To say discipline is lacking for her would be a harsh understatement and outside of cars little else has kept her attention over the years.

While no longer on parole she has a lengthy record.

Theo Santiago
Also Known As: Teddy Bear
Cover Occupation: Model/actor
Specialty: Martial arts, weapons expert

Origin and Background:  Teddy Bear is an orphan and an only child who grew up in multiple foster homes.  He was a troublemaker in his youth until he found discipline in martial arts.  After high school he went on to join the Marines, was selected for Marine Recon training, and served in the Middle East for multiple tours doing special ops missions.  After leaving the military as a sergeant, he capitalized on his looks with modeling and acting, including playing himself in a miniseries about his platoon.

Abilities/Skills/Gadgets:

Peak physical condition: Thanks to a strict diet and intense exercise regimen.

Unarmed combat: Teddy Bear's a champion martial artist, able to subdue or kill with his bare hands.

Marksman: He can use pistols and sniper rifles, but prefers automatic weapons like assault rifles and submachineguns.

Explosives expert:  Teddy Bear's favorites are bags of c4 with remote detonators, RPGs and LAW rockets.

Stealth: He can blend into a crowd and sneak around in shadows. 

Insertion: He can use parachutes and diving equipment.

Appearance:  Teddy Bear is 6 feet tall with a lean, muscular frame.

Personality:  Teddy Bearis full of bravado but shows lots of enthusiasm for his team, too.  He comes off as a braggart but compliments those around him even more.  In his 40's, he has plenty of war stories and tall tales.  He's a charismatic leader but not the tactical or strategic type to be put in charge of an operation.  He's always happy to spend time with the team, particularly doing physical training, sparring, hitting the gun range, and going out in nature.

Flaws:  Teddy Bear is more of a soldier type and not much of a spy.  His combat skills are publicly known.  While he can sneak around, his expertise is really for situations that get loud - blowing stuff up, creating a distraction, and covering the exfiltration of other agents.

Ons/Offs:  Bondage.  Rough sex.  Dirty talking.  Cuddling.  Snuggling.
