I really hate the different timezones...

__________________

Name: Abel Kincaid
Gender: Male
Rank: Journeyman
Common Equipment: One .500 S&W Magnum
Two S&W M29
Preferred Style: Abel is not a subtle assassin, he is more like the hammer used when a large number of people need to be killed with no need to consider the implacations; this is both a strength and weakness in that it opens hm to alot of fire and prevents him from rising in the ranks of the guild, but allows him marginally more freedom in terms of getting the job done.
Biography: abel was recruited into the guild by his father, one of the families who have had previously a large quantity of thier children and relatives join the guild, unlike his brothers however Abel was unable to quite grasp the finer points of assassination, prefering the use of brute force to complete a job, this lead to him spending much more time as an initiate than his relatives, and reciving less jobs when he had finally progressed, this is not somethign Abel cares to think upon however.
Though Abel recives relativly few jobs he has managed to specialise and advance to the rank of Journeyman, invariably recieving jobs where near total death is required for all within a given premisis, Abel has shown an aptitude for cutting off communications and retreats this greatly aids in his manner of assassination.
Physical Description: Abel is not a small man, he stands 6 foot 2 with grey eyes and similar hair falling to his shoulders.
He is a muscular man, with large biceprs and chest muscles, his legs however are not as powerful as many other assassins.
Other Important Info: Abel tends to wear a large amount of armour on his torso and often a helmet shaped like a skull, a black trench coat often accompanys his wear.
Due to his lack of the more subtle arts of stealth, It is not uncommon for Abel to be dropped on top of the target via glider of other soundless air carrier, or to have a second assassin open the way for him.

Im aware this is far from a conventional assassin, however as the saying goes Variety is the spice of life, therefore if this is unaceptable feel free to tell me to change it.

Or perhaps you are just like me, that simply, this is the only thing you have left.

No, there's not problem here! While I wouldn't allow more than one "Abel", I am willing to let you vary the idea here. You seem to have put good thought into how such a character would function in the assassin's guild, and as long as you can keep him believable and workable, you are approved.

Also, this.

Name: Alexander Johnathan Kaine (Jonny)
Gender: Male
Rank: Dealer
Common Equipment:
A brace of throwing knives.
A dozen darts or so.
Poisons, both on his weapons and for more subtle means of assassination.
Electronic lock picks and infiltration equipment.
2x Baretta 92FS
P90 (when on missions that might require it)
Preferred Style: Johnny isn't subtle about his preferred methods-up close and personal is his thing, and he's very good at it. A wizard with knives and close quarter weapons, either thrown or not, and in unarmed combat, his accuracy with handguns outside of a close combat range is rather lackluster in comparison with many others in the guild.
Biography: Johnny's an old hand at the guild, having been recruited when he was about Balir's age and been working his way up for the last eight years or so due to a rigorous and focused sense of accomplishment. Fairly well known within the corporation by now, he has almost fanatically mastered several disciplines of unarmed and armed martial combat, and when it comes to close combat he walks even among his fellow assassins confidently (though he's a bit touchy about his marksmanship).
Physical Description: 5'9'' and with the perfectly toned but not bulging muscles of a gymnist or a martial arts expert (of which he is both), he has several tattoos here and there across his body and a general spread of scars.
Other Important Info: Nothing that I can think of, but if it comes up I'll add it in.

This work out? I was planning on either going for the experienced assassin or the total newb, so lemme know if you'd prefer me to switch to the latter.

While you are probably one of only a select few that would be willing to go Recruit, the more I read your sheet and thought about the implications, the more I began to like your character. You are hereby approved as is. If you want to try and run a Recruit in the future as well as Jonny, you can go right ahead (if you think you're up to running two characters at once, that is).

My first time RPing here, so let's see how it works out...

Name: Stephen Harlan
Gender: Male
Rank: Recruiter
Common Equipment: Note: He doesn’t ALWAYS carry the full load, this is just a list of his personal favorite weapons of different mission types.
Colt M19A11 x2
HK MP7 PDW
Franchi SPAS-12
M249 SAW
Barrett “Light Fifty” MA283
Benchmade Model 158 - CSK-II, 6” fixed blade
Preferred Style: Steve Harlan is a brilliant tactician, and likes to plan surgical military style strikes; and if that doesn’t work, infiltration or a straight out gun battle will due.
Biography: Stephen “Hard-Boiled” Harlan has been with the Company for fifteen years, though it must be mentioned there was little AGI has been able to teach him; forty five years old, he spent eighteen of those years in the military, nine of those being under special operations command. After a brief tenure with a CIA taskforce, he retired into the role of a private investigator; this was true for a year, until an AGI recruiter with more muscles than brains tried to muscle him into the organization.

It must be noted that he was pardoned of his murder of an assassin, for something about his character caught old Jack’s eye; he liked the sob, for some reason he couldn’t explain. The Assassin King had him approached once more, very respectfully, with an invitation to meet with him; during their private discussion, Harlan was convinced it was in his best interest to join the AGI… and had given the King quite a shiner for something he’d said. To this day no one knows what was said, as neither ever saw a reason to divulge it.

Stephen took the death of the King without as much as a shrug, his career having reached the level of Dealer at the time; it had not taken long. Yet there was no professional pride shown, no ambition; promotions and accolades came, but they seemed to be merely distractions to the contract killer. The man was a machine… or so everyone had assumed, when they gave him a case to kill a little girl.

The Assassin had been quicker than people supposed he would be for his age; he’d come across the table and had a hand full of his handler’s shirt before he could blink. Steven, upon later interrogation, does not remember beating the man nearly to death, but does reflect upon the bone fragments pulled out of his knuckles. It was then decided he was not fit for work if he could not follow orders… but yet again, he was given another reprieve; demoted to recruiter, he has found some very promising but divergent individuals to live the life.

Thus we find him now, taking on the occasional hit, blending with the masses… never knowing when someone may test him again.

Physical Description: Standing at 6’2 of average height and tight build, Harlan looks every bit a man of weathered stone. His hair is kept short, though not as tight as it was in the military; it was once raven black, but has now aged to salt and pepper. He normally wears turtlenecks and slacks, overlain with a trench coat; he can give the impression of a fatherly figure or professor type at the drop of a hat, especially if he puts on glasses.

Other Important Info: The best word to describe Stephen “Hard-Boiled” Harlan is Noir.

Alright Takeshi. Originally, I would have argued that Balir may not have let you live after such an infraction, but the more I thought on it, I figured that Balir would recognize your skill as a valuable assassin and demote you as punishment. Just be aware that you're probably on Balir's bad side right now

Approved.

I'll take that last slot please! I'll get straight to work on my character now but I’m going to go with civilian. I like playing the weak crappy characters that really need luck to get anywhere. This RP sounds really good man and thanks for all the effort you put into the background. You pretty much had me at ‘The Assassin’s Guild’ but after reading your posts I’m even more enticed. I'll edit this post with my sheet.

EDIT: Here's my sheet. I wasn't sure if I could make a random ordinary citizen with no talents at all who could get picked up by the guild, so I went for someone who could be considered 'useful' by them

Name : Gary Molloy
Gender: Male
Rank: Civilian
Common Equipment: Nothing yet.
Preferred Style: Hand to hand, short range.
Biography: Gary is a street fighter. He grew up as a good kid but got picked on by the other kids in his classes. There was nothing they didn’t do just to make his life hell. He got beaten up, beaten down, thrown around. He got food, drinks, water balloons, rocks, wet toilet paper thrown at him. His first few years in school he was nicknamed ‘The Wuss’. He began to hate life and hate people. He wanted to do something to end the torment. He enrolled in a Karate class and learned a little a bit of how to fight back. That’s how it started. A lot of training later and he now earns a living fighting on the streets in an underground league. He’s known for his speed and fast reactions, and his ability to change his fighting style to mess with his opponents. Gary works an evening shift in an accountants office to show on his tax forms.
Physical Description: Gary is short and fit, but not incredibly muscular or broad. He is thin but not lanky. He has a shaved head with a few days black stubble. He has no facial hair and is of average looks.
Other Important Info: Gary isn't close to his family or friends and has no girlfriend or wife.

2nd EDIT: In my rush to get this finished I forgot to put in his usual attire.

Attire: Gary can usually be seen in fitted jeans and faded t-shirts. He puts very little thought into his appearance. For his desk job he wears simple black cords and a white shirt. His brown tie would match his hair colour if he let it grow.
