FALLOUT: ALOHA (RP)

Andrew Rivers

All right, time to be the do-gooder, Andrew thought as he observed the foes arrayed before him, walked up to the wiry man behiind the leader, and tried to punch him at the back of the head, hoping against hope that this fighter, whom he had inferred to be stronger than this gang's 'boss', would be caught by surprise - He wasn't.

At least he knew that the 'Scout' was trained in combat as the latter had boasted; the kid was prepared to defend himself. Problem was, without the element of surprise, the strongest fighter, the one with a wicked-looking baling hook, was more than a match for an unarmed Andrew. So now, the youth had to draw his gun and risk alerting the crew and maybe being punished, or take on this guy and hope for a miracle win or for the scout to use the distraction he had offered to deal with the gang 'boss'.

He grinned and said to the wiry guy with the baling hook as he took his own boxer's stance, fists raised, "Oi, muscles, you think you're hot shit? Using your weakling of a boss as cover so you can do whatever you want? I and the kid can beat you any day..."

Andrew was going to have to rely on his Trooper Armor and the viciousness of his bluff to survive - For this was a bluff. But by spelling out the weaknesses of the gang and revealing their strengths, the youth was hoping to get others to pitch in, others who, even if not interested in helping an NCR Trooper and a Wasteland Scout (?), would be interested in shanking these gangsters for loot and getting the corpses thrown overboard. Not that jumping these folk was the smartest thing to do; he can admit that.

This was not how he had expected the trip to go; Andrew had hoped to accompany some sort of NCR dignitary on that same mission he was in - After all, this was an official mission set by the NCR military, as far as he knew. He had hoped that he would be around someone he can recieve orders from and also have a general idea of the challenges they faced when looking for a McGuffin to save the NCR in Hawaii. Instead, he had found himself alone, which was a very bad thing to be when in a mission that can affect the fate of civilization. And now, he might die at the first hurdle!

But it was not the time to complain that life was so unfair; he was no weakling despite not being strong enough to win his mission alone. Thankfully, if he won this battle and saved the kid...

It all depends now. On what everyone else would do.

Fate/Dark Heritage

NPC Master for @ManyThings

Name: Oleg-Marie Animusphere
Age: 22
Aliases: The Discarded.
Titles: Heir of the Animusphere Family.

Height: 165cm
Weight: 80kg

Family Backstory: Canon Info from the Type-Moon Wiki

Personal Backstory: Abandoned and left to be raised by a branch family member by his asshole of a father, Oleg-Marie Animusphere soon learned that he had to prove himself to get any positive attention other than pity. The metaphorical jackals were baying around the Animusphere Family, and Oleg knew he had to fend them off or lose everything; that and prove himself to be someone worthy of continuing his father's research, which required a huge amount of resources, not even Magi normally had.

Oleg's father, the infamous Marisbury Anuimusphere, before abandoning him forever, had ordered an agent to investigate the Fuyuki Holy Grail War, only to find out that the Fuyuki Grail was corrupted and thus worthless to him. But then, after finding out someone made an Imitation Holy Grail in Kyoto, he suddenly contacted Oleg, asking the latter to participate in the Kyoto Holy Grail War. In exchange, he was willing to see him again.

By then, however, Oleg had already found out about some of Marisbury's plans and the culmination of the Animusphere Magecraft; CHALDEAS and CHALDEA and a plan that required massive deaths and destruction to make Humanity the top dog of the Universe yet also the most disgusting aspect of it, and decided to agree only so that he could betray his father.

Unlike his counterpart from a parallel timeline, Oleg was not so dependent on his father he was willing to join a plan that was mad even by Magus standards. No, he was going to kill his father, then find a spouse and raise children (if his spouse was male, he'd just get a surrogate mother from a strong bloodline whose family was in dire financial straits) in a way that was better than he had been raised!

Oh, right; he has met with Lorenzo Calungsod Emiya before in secret illegal negotiations to give Noritaka's bones back to Kiritsugu and Shirley (who are still alive in this timeline).

Personality: Rebellious, aggressive, and prone to overconfidence in his Magecraft and his mundane abilities, Oleg-Marie Animusphere nevertheless has the conscience of his female parallel counterparts, and is willing to cast aside his dreams and die if someone else's wish can foil his father's malign plots, which are abhorrent even by Magus standards. A born fighter, Oleg also wants to make it so that killing him would be a challenge, an epic fight worthy of the heroes of old. He does not want civilians killed, if only for pragmatic reasons, but is willing to sacrifice criminals and gangsters because they are scum and do not qualify as innocent; the hypocrisy of this approach is something he is well aware of.

Oh, he also likes cats, dogs, cockatoos, and lions.

Magical Parameters:

Magical Circuit Quantity: E-
Magical Circuit Quality: EX
Composition: Abnormal

Magecraft: Identical to Canon, due to this sheet being for an NPC Master, a full description of Magecraft is unnecessary for now.

Mystic Codes: See the above link.

Skills: See the above link, but Oleg also knows Parkour and Modern Pankration, Boxing, and Marksmanship.

Equipment:

- A lot of money.
- Fine Clothes.
- Casual Clothes.
- A Traditional Japanese House/Mansion.
- Retainers and Bodyguards provided by the various Animusphere Branch Families.

This is my hello

Welcome!

My very totally 100% formal hello

Hey, hey.

Noble Arms - The ASEAN War, Second Thread

Not a GM Post

As the meeting began, Noel turned towards C. Chea and her entourage replied, "Lieutenant, we thank you for your well-wishes, but with all due respect, the provocation is unsubtle and the threats made are out of order for a member of China's most public team of Arms Masters. Huo Ren and Yulian Suburov have made claims deserving of investigation and so under my authority, they are authorized to look into them. Add that to the fact that they have threatened one of my subordinates and me and I think we can build a case."

Myron, meanwhile, had finished communicating with the Philippine Ambassador, and pocketed his PDA, before approaching Berto and Koichi, then looking for Aoi before saying, "You two, let's move a few steps away; maintain some thin veneer of discretion."

This was not a request, but rather an order, and once the two had followed his instructions to move a few meters away, the Intelligence Officer said to them, "Specialists Williams and Suta, and Scout Mikoto if she's watching; a piece of advice - People like Huo Ren keep sensitive data on their phones. If you two - or three - are serious about the investigation, keep that fact in mind. Aides and servants are also rich sources of info, especially if they appear to be treated shabbily."

What was he hinting at? They either get their hands on Huo Ren's phone and expose him that way or they find a way to approach Huo Ren's aide and try and talk him into revealing the 'Paper Dragon' and the Avatar of Superbia's plans, open and secret. His minimal attempts to hide his own schemes and endorsement of what was undoubtedly a breach of etiquette were deliberate too - No one came after his brothers-in-arms (and sisters-in-arms too).

Just Another Hero

Kazuki Yamagata

Kazuki decided to ignore the brewing fracas for the sake of his sanity and instead kept reading the files he had gotten over and over until he had fully understood them. It seemed Endaevor was angling for them all to join his Agency. Sure, why not? It's not as if he hadn't already gotten everything he wanted from that internship with Hawks - Including a license to kill he made noises about using but didn't want to unless it was absolutely necessary.

As he looked at Rin, Kazuki decided to give her a chance, raising his hand to ask, "Miss Himura, forgive the doubts of my classmates; they do not know that you would have been chosen for us for a reason. Also, Endaevor's Hero Agency, with an invitation from his son - I am honored that someone such as me would be seen as acceptable for such an exalted post."

After reviewing the context of Yusuke's behavior, Kazuki turned to the other youth, looked him in the eye, and said, "What a backhanded way to defend our new teacher, while attracting all the negative attention for yourself. I almost got up to punch you in the face before I got that it was what you're doing."

He was not the only one skilled with computers; Kazuki had taken the time to improve his skills in that area of expertise precisely because the digital sphere was more accessible to Quirkless and it was easier for them to be recognized there. Typing into his own Hawkpad, the young man brought up Eirei's privacy and data protection policies to see if looking into Yusuke's records would get him expelled (it turned out it would, so he stopped after a few seconds).

I think I can have friends here... was his latest string of thoughts.

Quirkless but not worthless; weak but not irrelevant. That is Kazuki's motto in a world where equality is a myth but symbiosis isn't. Where even the weak are needed for the functioning of a greater good, but not everyone sees the necessity of compassion and cooperation to preserve life as we know it. Thus, Kazuki has contempt for those who believe that might makes right, that society and civilization deserve to be torn down so that the strong can prey on the weak. Those people who believe that a state where they cannot do anything they want is corrupt? Fuck them; he'll enjoy civilization till the very end.

He was born to an ordinary family in a world where the Symbol of Peace is dead. Born in a world that was steadily getting worse, where those with power stewed in their hypocrisy. All his life, he struggled with envy of other, luckier children, went through phases of wanting to be like them, enduring their bullying, fighting back, and getting pummeled with verbal and physical abuse, and all that kept him from killing himself were two things: One, his loving family, and Two, his discovery of weaponry. In a world without Quirks, to carry weapons in school, much less use them against other students, would have been a sign of psychopathy, even criminality. For Kazuki, it was his salvation.

It started with the realization that most sports equipment can endure handling by a Quirk user and thus can harm them if they were hit by it. Then it turned out that knives were easy to hide and even easier to use. Then, he searched on the Internet and found out that (in this divergent timeline), gun control laws were relaxed for Quirkless folk so that they could protect themselves, and this was worldwide (again, divergent timeline). Of course, there were limits, but Kazuki learned to present himself as the victim and make sure that the situation can always be spun as though he were not the aggressor.

His expertise with weapons and fascination with power armor gave him a niche in Eirei Academy after passing its entrance exams, and he immediately went to work building his magnum opus, a suit of non-bulky, compact Power Armor form-fitting enough to allow him to fight in the streets of Japan's cities, while securing permits to use guns with Quirk-dampening bullets and other Anti-Quirk weaponry acquired by entering an internship in Hawks' Hero Agency, which had a monopoly on such dangerous technology. This internship lasted for more than the required five years because he genuinely enjoyed being there.

Nevertheless, the suit of PA that he built is his pride and joy, especially after he made sure it was proof against most environmental hazards and forms of physical damage. Also, he discovered he likes both men and women at some point.

So now, his goal is to fight amongst his heroes; Power Armor that can be hidden under normal clothes helps with that. A secondary goal is also to find a boyfriend or a girlfriend; and that means having to moderate his flaws, namely his tendency for extreme aggression towards perceived enemies...

The Hidden Suit - A thin, almost skintight suit that nevertheless is made of carbon fiber and dura-ceramic plates with a layer of strength-enhancing artificial muscles powered by miniature fusion reactors; a testament to what Quirkless science can achieve. Also resistant to extreme heat and cold and EMPs, and contains a biometric system.

The Otomo Sorin - A modified American carbine that uses an electromagnetic propulsion system, aka a mini-railgun, that propels bullets at a speed faster than sound, and which can also fire globs of explosive jelly at the same speed and is EMP-hardened just in case someone tries to interfere with its system. To prevent excess collateral damage, the Otomo Sorin can lower its output so that it can fire rubber bullets or globs of high-expanding sticky foam at a slower velocity than usual.

Quirk-dampening Bullets - A limited number of special bullets that dampen Quirks, derived from one Eri Kisaki, and further modified to dissolve in 15 minutes after blocking the target's Quirk pathways upon a successful hit.
