I'm volunteering myself for a lot of stuff around here pretty quickly, but I figure some of these RPs will take longer to start up than others, and I'm eager to try out every type of story I can.

Basically, I'm looking for combat - fast-paced, any length of post. I prefer normal, human combatants with modern weaponry, but I can accommodate crazy flying psychic dudes and whatnot, provided I get a clear enough outline of what you'll be playing. The main idea is to make this no holds barred to the death nonstop action. I'll roll with all comers if more than one person is up for a tussle.

i'm game. I think Vance fits the modern weapon and normal human style you're looking for here's his sheet-

Name: Vance (AKA "The Laughing Devil")
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Class: Mentally unstable, armed and extremely dangerous

Appearance-
Tall with a moderate to somewhat "bulky" build, messy pitch black hair, and one red and one dark blue eye which are barely visible through the lenses of his gas mask. Riddled with scars from growing up in a constant war zone.

Personality-
Seriously deranged, suffers from PTSD as well as a number of other mental defects that are yet to be properly diagnosed in a clinical setting. Enjoys killing and watching others suffer.

Equipment-

Armor/Attire:

Ballistic/Tactical Vest and armor of the same type covering most of his legs.
A modified GP-5 Gas mask with a refined respiration system and extremely fine filters

Weapons:

Two Taurus Raging Bull Model 500's (both holstered on his lower back)
Two RGO Hand Grenades
Two Tear Gas grenades
A Type 87 Grenade Launcher with a 12 round drum magazine (slung across back if not already being held)

Ammunition/ Other:

A small ammunition pouch attached to his belt holding .50 caliber rounds for his Raging Bull revolvers.

Two 12 round drum magazines for his type 87 grenade launcher attached to his belt on his back.

A pair of scissors each blade being about 4.5'' long and the handle 3'' long. sheathed on the outer thigh of his right leg.

History-

Vance was born into a war torn country, a civil war that had been going on long before he was even born would determine his fate. When Vance was still a very young boy a squad of rebel soldiers "commandeered" his home, after ransacking the home of any valuables and food they proceeded to kill his family one by one as he watched. When they tried to kill him something in him snapped and he murdered one of the soldiers by driving a pair of scissors into his neck (a pair of scissors he still carries to this day, as a sort of a "security blanket"). Instead of killing him though the commanding officer of the squad ordered that he'd be taken alive and reformed to fight for their cause, seeing promise in the young boy, he stated that he had "The eyes of a killer", and a "Strong survival instinct".

The years passed as Vance was raised on the battlefield his senses sharpened as he honed all the skills necessary for survival in a war zone, he was drugged and brainwashed into believing that the troops of the totalitarian government killed his family and so he would take it out on any enemy troops he would come across. He became something of a legend amongst the rebel soldiers and the government troops came to know him as well, as "the laughing devil" due to his loud fear inducing laughter echoing just before or after an intense battle.

For some reason or another, amidst a heated firefight Vance lost all control. Perhaps it was all the stress the years of fighting had put on his already extremely damaged psyche but nobody will ever know. Vance ended up killing any living thing he could get his hands or sights on; Rebels, government troops, or even civilians. It didn't matter to him anymore, to this day everybody is an enemy to him.

That's quite a load-out, but like I've been saying, I'm looking for a challenge. I'll write up a character in a bit. Do you have a preferred setting for this - urban, rural, hot/cold, anything?

[tamefisher]

Name: Jo Gargano
Age: 30
Gender: Female
Appearance: Unverified.
Personality: Decisive, incisive, and downright divisive.
Equipment:

Two Aeryon Scout UAV units with IR camera payloads, GPS-enabled tablet PC/controller with storage pouch and hands-free mic wired to helmet.

Armor/Attire:

H-harness with munitions pouches and NBC suit over single front steel plate armor and hardened Kevlar helmet.

Weapons:

4.6×30mm MP7A1 with reflex sight and 20-round magazine on single-point sling.

.357 Glock 33 holstered on left hip, 9-round magazine.

Ammunition/ Other:

6 x 20-round magazine for MP7A1, in stacks of three on either shoulder strap of the H-harness.

2 x 9-round Glock magazine in belt pouch on lower back.

History: Josephine Gargano is a fixer of broken things, and a breaker of things unbroken. She instigates war then terminates the warriors. Intelligence files on her alternate between richly detailed combat reports from across the world to blank sheets depending on what her superiors feel like sharing any given week. Most of what you hear is true, except for one, lingering rumor - she doesn't take prisoners.
