(moving this here :D) ---- [u][b][center]Character Sheet #1[/b][/center][/u] [hider=Robert Sinclaire] [b]Name:[/b] Robert Kruschev Sinclaire [b]Age:[/b] 40s [b]Appearance:[/b] Robert Sinclair is like a vintage automobile, exuding a peculiar form of class in a modern world. His manner of dress is almost always defined by a well-tailored suit, and apart from being six feet tall, appears rather normal for a human being. Amidst the genofix and augmentation craze, Robert Sinclair is a nonconformist in that regard. He is quite proud of his natural genetics, and maintains a fairly disciplined diet and exercise routine.

The public loves him -- but that's only because he puts politicians like me through the wringer. What can I say? He's a magnificent piece of ****."[/b] [i]-Quote from BESC Representative Illugia Faux taken from CTCCV LiveNetworkLink interview with Reporter Lesita Morana[/i] In the corporate-political wheelhouse of greedy sharks and conniving back stabbers, Robert Kruschev Sinclaire exists as the most devilishly sly jackal of them all. Fear not his incalculable demeanor, nor his manipulative charisma; such tools of the trade come standard for those of his profession. No. Fear his ambition; his indomitable will to succeed against impossible odds. To play the game of Babylon politics requires the sharpened tact of a brilliant mind, and Sinclaire is no lesser man of the sort. His presence is simply magnetic, commanding respect even amongst his most austere critics and nay-sayers. In truth, only Robert knows who he really is, what he stands for, and what his true motivations are. He can be courteous when required, become ruthless when necessary, and most especially vengeful when pursued. [b]Occupation:[/b] CGB Politician [b]History:[/b] Robert Kruschev Sinclaire. Former C.E.O. of Multinational Corporation Yggdrasil Industries, current politician in CGB office, and a constant thorn at the BESC's side. Quite the resume for a kid that grew up selling e-cigs and hackware at the lower east coastline of Babylon. There was nothing special about Robert; no hidden power that one day made him the unstoppable force that he is today. Nothing was handed to him either - not his multinational corporation, nor his ascension into politics. Everything he ever accomplished, he did so with rolled up sleeves and hardworking grit. Yggdrasil Industries has made positive contributions to the world, most notably doing so without harming the environment in the process. Touted as an eco-friendly conglomeration, Yggdrasil Industries was one of the first corporations to start shelling out alternative forms of cost-effective energy. Their manufacturing of waste atomizing machines accounts for the world's substantial decrease in garbage landfills, toxic waste, and biohazard dumpsites. Many other technological wonders were destined to improve the overall quality of life on Outremer, but the BESC stepped in and started putting up the red tape. Citing laws, regulatory fines, and jurisdictional hoopla, whatever they could find to stop Yggdrasil dead in their tracks, they used, unsparingly. Sinclaire didn't need an investigator to find out what was going on. Clearly the big businesses weren't too fond of their profit-loss, contributed by Yggdrasil, who was clearly dominating the market at this point. So they fetched the BESC puppets they had lined in their pockets and started a ruckus. They even went as far as hiring mudslingers from the press to promote an anti-Yggdrasil smear campaign. Robert knew that if he bowed down now, they'd never get another foothold anywhere. So he played it smart and let it all settle out. He resigned as C.E.O., and urged the board to negotiate with their competitors. Five years later, Robert Sinclaire is now knee deep in CGB public office, relentlessly combating with BESC legislature in a strategic war of politics. You see, Robert realized that if he wanted to make any real changes in Outremer, he'd have to venture into the belly of the beast himself. The government's hounds may have sniffed out his intentions, but they have nothing but intuition to go by. And while they speculate with twiddled thumbs, the politician amasses a network of powerful connections; swindling bureaucrats and fiddling with ploys of grandeur that work toward his ultimate goal. They have a saying in Outremer that goes something like: [center]"He who makes a beast of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man."[/center] To those daring souls that stand in Robert's way, pray the bite from his fangs be quick. For he is a man who wears his pain like the reaper's cloak.[/hider] ---- [u][b][center] Character Sheet # 2 [/center][/b][/u] [hider=Dr Ayah Lau] [b]Full Name:[/b] Dr. Ayah Mei Lau [b]Age:[/b] 32 [b]Race:[/b] Human Appearance: [img] http://s.cghub.com/files/Image/355001-356000/355501/236_max.jpg[/img] [b]Personality:[/b] Dr. Lau is incredibly well-schooled, delightfully well-mannered, and insatiably well-dressed. She gives off a pristine vibe that alludes to a prissy, high maintenance-type lifestyle, but that couldn’t be any further from the truth. In reality, she is a hands-on field officer that finds physical labor as the most rewarding part of her job. Puss fuming epithelial sores from a sexually transmitted tindrel disease wouldn’t make her flinch any more than an insufferable public formality would. And don’t let her charm fool you; her snarky attitude and sarcastic undertones aren’t just meant for social fluff. She didn't gain the infamous title of "Ice Queen" by sitting pretty. [b]History:[/b] She originally worked as a Hazard Consultant at Yggdrasil Industries for ten years before she was offered the job at Epidemic Intelligence Services (EIS) as a Lead Field Epidemiologist Officer. The EIS are contractually assigned to consult BESC with Disease Prevention and potential outbreak risk from deadly pathogens on a global scale. Dr. Lau takes credit for preventing six cases of what could have resulted in genocidal outbreak; Three in Babylon, one in Edessa, and two in Reunion. The constant influx of immigrants and trade imports and exports off-world puts Outremer in a constant state of vulnerability that Dr. Lau hopes to change in the coming future. [b]Occupation:[/b] EIS Science Officer [b]Weaponry:[/b] [i]BAAC Personal Beam-Focus Blaster[/I] - Laser-Firing Handgun, short-medium range, 10 shots before reload, powerful at short range, energy decreases with range; medium recoil.

While Dr. Lau is uninformed on the specifics, she is aware that they are both graduates of a rigorous augmentation program that was recently green-lit at BESC's advanced military academies.[/hider] [u][b][center]Submitted Faction[/b][/center][/u] [hider=EBS Inc] [u][b]Faction Name:[/b][/u] Emeritus Broadcasting System, Inc.
