I was thinking it was going on to long

@Raptra Haha I'm sure it will crop up as a running joke at another point in the RP but I am happy to sacrifice it for not to get some action going!

@Raptra
Sure I get to writing something.

The group's gonna get to the CBD (at least most of them), hopefully soon.

CBD sounds like a tv channel, an illicit drug, or a disease.

Ain't illicit though.

Ain't illicit though.

I wouldn’t do business with a doctor that prescribed it

Will be back in a couple of days to move the whole thing along. Meanwhile, you peeps will have the time to decide who travels by what means XD

Update: Post tomorrow if there's nothing else.

Hey guys, just to let you know i’m writing Zack out. I’m not going to carry on with the RP anymore - hope you guys have fun anyway! :)

Hello all! Let me know if this Hero is accepted. I know I posted this in the character tab earlier and, upon receiving feedback from another forum user, corrected my mistake. Thanks for understanding!

Name: Samus-007

Universe: Halo (OC)





Age: 20 (Biologically), 32 (Chronologically)

-[Born 2511]

-Age at conscription: Seven [2517]

-[Active 2552-present]

Sex: Female

Affiliation: United Nations Space Command (Formerly), Office of Naval Intelligence (Current)

Personality: Samus would be described as cold, calculative, mechanical and nearly emotionless toward any military or authority figure from the resentment and resistance she actively displayed while under conscription by the UNSC. Only those who manage to befriend the silent, stoical Spartan will see a different side altogether. In the presence of Civilians, allies or children, the Spartan is known to behave much more remarkably social in an effort to show that she is still Human- whether this is an attempt to cope with the trauma of her abduction is yet to be deciphered. Those that threaten human lives, including the lives of her allies, will almost always be met with immediate hostility.

Powers: Samus possesses multiple augmentations standard-issue to all Spartan II personnel. These include:

Occipital Capillary Reversal: Surgery is performed on the occipital lobe of the left cerebral hemisphere of the brain; the occipital lobe is the visual processing center of the brain, containing most of the anatomical region of the visual cortex. The surgeon performs a procedure on the capillaries, the smallest of the body's blood vessels, to reverse the direction of blood flow in each capillary to boost the blood flow beneath the rods and cones of the subject's retina. The rods and cones of the eye are light-sensitive receptors located in the back of the eye. Together they are able to detect movement, light and color, and relay that information back to the brain. This procedure produces a marked visual perception increase.

Carbide Ceramic Ossification: The candidate's bones are exposed via surgery or procedurally sequential surgeries. An advanced carbide ceramic material is grafted onto the skeletal structure to begin assimilation into the upper layers of the each individual bone. This results in the bones being virtually unbreakable. The coverage of this procedure does not exceed 3% total bone mass due to significant white blood cell necrosis: effectively, the carbide ceramic can only comprise a thin outer "shell" bonded to each bone without interfering with bone functionality as organs.

Catalytic Thyroid Implant: A platinum pellet is implanted in the left thyroid gland; this pellet contains a human growth hormone that is released into the body to boost growth of skeletal and muscle tissues. As the hormone is released into the body the pellet dissolves and is absorbed. The hormone targets and stimulates the growth of fast and slow twitch muscle fibers, effectively producing significant gains in muscle mass. The hormone also targets osteoblasts to help boost bone tissue formation and effectively strengthen the bone structure.

Muscular Enhancement Injections: In addition to the growth hormone catalyst, a protein complex is injected intramuscularly that targets the muscles' intracellular molecular machinery to help increase muscle strength and endurance. These injections target the muscles' molecules increasing the density of the connective tissues and fibers, the more visible result being the muscles quivering and contorting over one another, making connecting tendons stronger and decreasing lactase recovery time.

Superconducting Fibrification of Neural Dendrites: Alteration of bioeletrical nerve transduction to shielded electronic transduction. 300% increase in subject reflexes. Anecdotal evidence of marked increase in intelligence, memory, and creativity.

Gear:

Generation-One [GEN1] Mark VI Powered Assault Armor /Shadow/ Variant: This armor was a substantial upgrade over the Mark V; which provided hundreds of technological updates to the suit. The Titanium Alloy Outer Shell bears extreme resilience to most conventional small arms, the plating capable of withstanding about a magazine of concentrated 5.56x45mm fire per plate, 12 7.62x51mm shots per plate or 3 12.7x99mm AP rounds per plate. The refractive coating heat allows the chassis to withstand background heat and twenty direct strikes from Covenant plasma. Mark V shielding is capable of withstanding up to 1.45 gigawatts of energy before breaking; equivalent to one direct hits (torso or below) from a 14.5 APFSDS round or shell. They'll protect against directed energy, projectiles and melee strikes. Upon draining, a 5.45-second delay kicks into effect before the shields begin a 0.85-second recharge to one hundred percent. Frictionless surfaces make for very difficult grapples if one were to attempt to grab them. Lastly, by default, the powered assault armor doubles the user's strength (which is already three times their body weight by default) and multiplies their reaction time by a further factor of five. Perhaps the biggest feature of all was the automatic biofoam injector ports.

MA5B Assault Rifle: An air-cooled, suppressed, magazine-fed, gas-operated, selective-fire rifle with a bullpup reloading system. It sports a 3x magnified combat optic and fires a 15-round mag of 7.62x51mm NATO ammo.

M6G SOCOM Personal Defense Weapon System: A Semi-automatic, recoil operated, mag-fed large caliber pistol. Packing a total of eight rounds per mag, it fires a devastating 12.7x40mm M225 SAP-HE (Semi-Armor-Piercing, High Explosive) round.

'Ahab': This 'Smart' AI is Samus's Tactical Battlefield Assistant; a middle-aged war scarred male dressed in what appears to be a form-fitting muscular armored bodysuit with an eyepatch over his right eye. In addition to several scars lining the majority of his face, a prominent metallic horn sticks out of the right side of his forehead. He speaks with a gruff, soft-spoken yet serious tone of voice.



Power rating: 70

Background: Born on Eridanus II in the city of Luxor, Samus was the only child of parents Marcus and Elizabeth Hayes. Marcus, a retired Marine Lieutenant of the UNSC, insisted that his daughter was raised orderly and with discipline; but also to be taught the values of family, love and appreciation. Elizabeth, a retired early childhood education teacher, backed this to a degree; suggesting that their daughter be homeschooled for a more interpersonal and structured educational regimen. Five years later with both parents continually employed in full-time jobs, they sought another solution and ultimately hired a young, experienced and abnormally qualified babysitter to look after the young girl, who in reality was an undercover Naval Intelligence agent. For the next two years, Samus was covertly evaluated by the undercover agent alongside receiving education from her parents, as well as the agent herself. The relationship between Samus and her caretaker was rocky throughout the first year with suspicion and mistrust, however by the second, the toddler had begun to regard her caretaker as a friend. That trust was subsequently betrayed on the morning of her seventh birthday, where Naval Intelligence officers raided the house and kidnapped the young girl by force; knowing full well she wouldn’t come along willingly. Having been sedated and replaced with a flash-clone, the conscription operation had been a success. The agent stayed at the house until the clone’s death, and still acted as an outlet of support for the grieving family years later.

Like the other Spartan-II candidates, Samus was captured from her home by force and replaced by a flash-cloned version. However, throughout the young girl’s conscription, the proved to be more trouble than she was worth. Despite her age, Samus was quick to piece together why she had been taken from her family; proceeding to channel her strong emotional response into a dedication go along with the program she was forced into, all the while actively resisting military conformity, indoctrination and preferring to operate on her own method. Despite the young teenager’s rebellious nature, Samus proved to be exceptionally capable of what she was taught; surpassing the educational expectations as well as displaying elite field skills. The UNSC were quick to pick up on this, and despite the numerous disciplinary infractions she received, they devised one last plan and decided . Midway through her education at the age of ten, the young Spartan candidate was pulled from her class and trained independently at the hands of numerous Naval Intelligence instructors for the remaining four years leading up to the augmentation procedures.

When the time came, the Spartan underwent surgery and successfully received all five sets of augmentations. However, she was covertly placed into a medical coma and declared deceased; being passed into the hands of ONI to later be “resuscitated” one month later and issued MJOLNIR Mk. IV Powered Assault Armor, painted a black finished with a red visor. For the next twenty-eight years throughout her service to Naval Intelligence, the mostly controlled freelance Spartan’s whereabouts were highly and heavily classified so that only a few key members of Naval Intelligence truly knew her location at all times. On October 2nd, 2552, Samus was adorned in MJOLNIR Mk. VI Powered Assault Armor, and the cycle continued.

Or so she thought.

What was deemed to be a routine Slipspace jump to Mars ended in failure, as the ONI Prowler she was traveling on stopped transmitting its signal on the morning of November 11th, 2552. All hands were lost, and Samus was declared Missing in Action.

No worries! Welcome to RPG. As for your character, did you mention her being an OC?

<Snipped quote by DisturbedSpec>

Aye. I've noticed that OC's seem to be disallowed on some chats. If this is the case, I do apologize. Having only signed up two days ago I'm still attempting to navigate around the area.

@DisturbedSpec while my characters are all canon most of them are basically ocs.

@DisturbedSpec No probs, although I like the detailed CS. Is she based off of a canon character? Though, if you think this RP isn't for you, I hope you find something you're looking for :)

[@all] Also, this is supposed to be a sandboxish thing and the NPCs may become less active as we go along, but do let me know if you peeps require more to work with, and your characters are still free to interact with the NPCs at any time.

@Raptra You know Link will interact with anyone. ;)

Except the two that nearly killed her while she was trying to hook up with the shower guy.

Raptra has approved a new character for me.

Unfortunately, nope. I am glad you appreciate the detail, however. Good luck in your future endeavors!

I'm guessing this needs a nudge. Will see what I can do.

@Lightning@Metatrooper are you still in this its been 13-14 days since you posted?

Sorry, school has been rough on me the past few weeks, I thought I would have time but it seems I need to drop out.

Again, really sorry@Raptra
