Humanity achieved FTL travel fifty years ago, in 2116, and joined the galactic community. Most of the sentient races were collectively governed by the Republic, a group of senators that debated intergalactic laws and policies and helped maintain peace and order from the planet Corvais. The Human Alliance refused to join, not wanting to be barred by unnecessary laws and Republic politics.

Human expansion was left unchecked, and they quickly colonized habitable worlds that would have otherwise been given to the Republic races. Those races who were halted by human expansion and opposed the Alliance were let down by the Republic, who failed to stop the humans growth. Before long, dozens of systems and races seceded from the Republic, forming the Federation. A cold war was effectively in place between the Federation and the Alliance, and the Republic's power diminished.

Five years ago a terrorist attack on Corvais prompted the Federation to attack the Alliance, who in turn defended themselves and declared war. The Corvais Wars only lasted for 3 months, but it was devastating to both sides. Whole colonies were destroyed and once-beautiful planets deemed inhospitable. The Republic finally convinced both sides to sign a treaty. When the war ended, the Federation and the Alliance retreated and started to rebuild.

Name: Taleste Jot-Anne

Age/Race/Gender: 24/Human/Female

Appearance:

Occupation: Professional Thief-turned-Skaldrum Pirate

Weapons:

-Camelid PP10 handgun, silencer attached. Non-automatic, ballistic.


-Vibro-Axe (picture needed)

Armor:

-Taleste does not wear metal or powered armour, preferring the lightweight, mobile approach of not getting hit in the first place, but her clothes themselves are made of a special, super-dense carbon fibre which will protect her from a light ballistic attack, such as stray bullets. It will not work against concentrated fire, stabbing or bludgeoning weapons, explosives or for, or lasers, however.

Items: Taleste's effects are as follows (besides weapons); One lockpicking multitool, one miniature yet powerful drill, binocular sunglasses, and the usual toiletries, clothes, make-up, ect, which would usually not be worth commenting on but for Taleste, can be tools of crime also.

Skills: Taleste is an accomplished thief who can flawlessly pickpocket, pick mechanic locks, crack safes, and is very good at being light on her feet and unnoticed. She's also a very good actor, if the need ever arises for her to go undercover. Related to this, she has a talent for makeup, able to make herself look like she's spent her whole life in the slums, or in the aristocracy, or young and pretty, or old and ugly, merely by clever presentation of face, hair and fashion.

Powers:None

Combat Class/Role: Pirate. Most effective at melee range. Specializes in both close quarters combat and sneaking around to flank the opponent. Isn't actually the most useful person to have in a firefight unless getting behind the enemy and getting close is an option.

History: Taleste joined the crew of the Revenant after being arrested for a heist gone wrong. Several missions later, she was captured by Skaldrum Pirates whilst attempting to infiltrate their ranks. Instead of death, she persuaded the Captain to let her stay as a concubine. She learned their ways and became one of them, before getting arrested by the alliance once again some time later. She helped Grayson and others escape the prison transport ship they were on together, and rejoined her old crew.

Other: She speaks in a heavy, strange dialect, possibly from one of the many multiracial slums around the galaxy, where humans and aliens live side by side and pick up each other's vernacular habits.

Name: Sadaet Kodana

Age/Race/Gender: Human male, 32

Appearance: Tall, and with messy black hair and a trimmed beard that looks like it sees more care than his haircut, Sadaet appears to be of South Asian or Indian heritage. With a confident, matured look, he intimidates if he needs to but mostly appears to be a good business partner. He bears a half-sleeve of traditional art on his left arm. His daily wear consists of subdued, almost tactical cargo pants with boots and a fitted, modernized leather jacket. In the cold, he’ll wear a beanie and can often be seen roaming the ship in flip flops, shorts, and a military silkweight top.

Occupation: Black market contact, electronic warfare mercenary

Weapons: When walking out and about, Sadaet conceals a compact revolver in his waistband. This revolver can have its barrel changed to a longer version if concealment is not required. If engaging in direct action, he will utilize a battle rifle. On his hip, he wears the traditional straight fighting shortsword of the Shahani System: mostly for show, since swords aren’t great in a gunfight.

Armor: Sadaet typically only wears a set of dark-grey plate armor under his jacket, purchased off the black market. Careful to avoid Kotayki military kit, this one is sourced from private companies and has the mark of a defense contractor across its chestplate. When he needs space to carry fighting loads, he wears a battle belt with magazine pouches, a few utility pouches, and a medical pouch.

Items: Generally carries around a smartphone/tablet device which acts as the main device for his cyber and electronic toolkits. In addition to that, he carries around items like bugs, sensors, and surveillance devices. Uses a contact-lens electronic display derived from RKAF military equipment that links to his tablet device. When out in the field, he’ll wear a backpack with general equipment in it. A small drone called the Sentinel can be carried and launched for reconnaissance or light attacks with its small-caliber gun.

Skills: Owing to his service as an officer in the RKAF’s Signal Corps and as a detachment commander in the 7th Special Support Actions Regiment, Sadaet has been trained in communications (including establishment, jamming, tracking, encryption/decryption), cyber operations (offensive and defensive), drone operations, and other facets of electronic warfare. He maintains some basic military proficiency despite the fact that he was never in a main combat role.

Powers: None

Combat Class/Role: Communications assurance and deception/electronic warfare specialist

History: Sadaet hails from the Shahani System, a binary star grouping with a somewhat recent colonial history. While not the frontier by any means, the planets are considered “second world” and are ruled by the remnants of a royal house. Sadaet is from a well-off family who supported the largest faction in the system, the Kotayki House. As part of House Kodana, he served in the Royal Kotayki Armed Forces at the start of the Shahani System Conflicts, a brutal eight year war fought between the human majority against alien minority populations. The conflict dragged on as RKAF forces became bogged down clearing alien population centers and insurgents in the tough terrain of the many moon systems near the system’s gas giant. This would be a forgotten war, all but glossed over by the Alliance as part of “colonial troubles.”

Towards the eight year mark, allegations of war crimes were thrown as the Kotayki House came under Alliance scrutiny. A peacekeeping force stopped hostilities and began a postwar reconstruction of the system. Investigations into ethnic cleansing turned up results of organized plans to clean the system of alien life to allow human expansion. Sadaet, while a member of the Signal Corps and thus removed from ground combat operations, was still a member of the military forces and disavowed. The planetary government was dismantled and his system was subsumed by the Alliance’s central control: Sadaet went into hiding shortly thereafter, feeling fear of retaliation by the Alliance and guilt at the revelations that had shaken the Kotayki society to its core.

With the end of the war erasing the Kotayki House’s hold on any sort of power, Sadaet withdrew his money into secret accounts before Alliance government agents could freeze it. Many of his former compatriots, some more guilty than others, turned to crime syndicates to sell their skills. As a signal officer who worked on much of the “invisible war” in cyberspace, Sadaet offered his skills as an electronic warfare mercenary. His fortune was sustained by an expertise in enabling black market operations. He slipped into the shadows, to the Helios System, a known hotspot of mercenaries and criminal activity.

Somewhat ironically, Sadaet found himself working for the Alliance as he was picked up by the crew of the Revenant at Helios Station. Offered a contract by Stryker, he tagged along for their first operation: an attack on a military outpost to kill or capture several important personnel. Following the failure of that mission, they were captured and confined to a prison ship on their way to parts unknown. Luckily, the Revenant’s crew was able to escape and run. While they are wanted and hunted, they are still alive. What comes next remains to be seen…

Other: None (TBD)

Standing a fair sized 180 cm, and seemingly quite trim, her outward appearance belies significant weight. While it’s plain she’s had some cybernetic work done, what most folks don’t realize is that the only thing truly ‘human’ left of her is her brain, brain stem and spinal cord; all sealed in a very well armoured life support unit mounted in the chest cavity.

For clothing she’s generally seen in a blue/black skinsuit; in reality the suit is merely an ‘appearance profile’ of her dermal covering. The covering can replicate everything from ‘nude’ to ‘formal ball’ to ‘combat armour’ though its defensive capabilities remain largely the same.

• SinoArms S Type 40/A3 20mm Mass Driver - The SinoArms Type 40 is a more modern equivalent to the chemically fired ‘shotgun’. A multi-bank capacitor set up allows the user to fire a wide variety of rounds, out to several hundred meters for some single piece types of ammunition.
• Nikomas Mod. 9 D.E.A. - The Mod. 9 Directed Energy Attachment is an under barrel laser add-on for any ballistic weapon with the correct rail set up. Fall off of the beam limits it’s effective range to a little over 100 meters depending on local conditions, but inside that range it is capable of disabling most standard types of powered armour. (The Type 40 and under slung Mod. 9 both draw power directly from her body so in the event someone disarms her, her weapon becomes inert.)
• Nikomas Mod. 2/L D.E.D - The little sister to the Mod. 9, the Mod. 2/L Directed Energy Device is designed to fit into compact spaces and function as a ‘hold out’ weapon. (Val’s Mod. 2 is mounted in her left forearm.)
• SinoArms P Type 3/A2 C 5mm - Type 3/A2 is a compact machine pistol firing the potent 5mm APDSFS Group 2 caseless ammunition. The ammunition itself is popular for use against light to medium un-powered armours, especially when used in a GPMG. The Type3/A2 however was a commercial flop as most users found the Group 2 ammunition too ‘hot’ to be controllable in a single-handed machine pistol; the semi-auto only Type 3/A1 is still a very popular pistol. (Val carries her Type 3 in a ‘holster’ in her left thigh)
• Durandal Industries Model R CQB Blade - A 25 cm carbon steel knife. (Stored in a ‘sheath’ in her right calf)

Cybernetics

• Cyberdyne Systems Total Cybernetic Mobile Frame - A high-end and fully customizable artificial body. Capable of withstanding light to moderate ballistic and laser attacks, it is powered by a class 3 micro fission reactor. All though the reactor does exceed the body’s power consumption needs, it is just enough to run the power hungry AD4 Processor and her weapons.
• TruSkin Dermal Covering - An re-configurable nanotech outer layer that is capable of limited self-repair, its defensive capability is factored in to her body’s ability to resist damage.
• Neural Interface Unit - A nano-mesh implanted throughout her organic systems, it collects, sorts and feeds all relevant data from the Mobile Frame directly into her nervous system allowing for total body immersion.
• AD4 Quantum Processor - Separate from her body’s CPU and the NIU, the AD4 and its 3 petabytes of data, it runs her cyberwarefare suite and stores a legion of nasty virus’, worms, trojans for her to inflict on hostile networks.
• ‘Gellar’ type Psi-amp - A fairly common, but high end psionic amplifier

Other

• A medal of St Expeditus - Worn around her neck, she keeps it for personal, rather than religious, reasons.

A top tier hacker, she was once one of the Alliances most wanted until she did a little ‘editing’. Until quite recently she’d had to make to with second or third rate cybernetics and as a result she ended up a half-decent, and mostly self-taught, mechanic. Can mix a a good cocktail too.

Barrier - Creates a psionic ‘bubble’ that can resist most physical and energy strikes against it. Under optimal conditions it can be sustained for about five minutes.
Pulse - A strong ‘push’ that will knock back most unsecured objects. Can either be focused or omnidirectional.
Psi-blade - Only visible to herself, it is a ‘blade’ of pure psionic energy that will bypass any physical barrier. It does no physical damage, but can induce significant electrical charges into the target stunning organics and overloading computer systems.

Psionic/Crowd Control - Using her psionic powers she is best at close to medium ranges, using Barriers and Pulses to restrict enemy movements or defend allies; that said, mental fatigue brought on by over/continuous use of her powers may cause her to blackout.
Hacker/Cyberwarfare - As a hacker she can drag information out of the depths of almost any network she can access, and her ability to harass, delay or destroy hostiles is really only limited to the scope of the network she has hijacked and the quality of her connection to it.

Under a previous series of alias’ she made quite the name for herself as an independent contractor in the Expanse. Bit by bit, as she made enough capital, she either replaced or upgraded her hardware until only the organics she still has right now, remained. Unfortunately her wants usually exceeded her means and she had to do with lower-end components; but that changed a few months ago when she was hired by some Expanse kingpin to ruin a rival. She took the rival for everything, though she may have lied to her employer about exactly how much that was.

With a generous payout from the individual who hired her, and her own careful ‘redistribution’, she bought the hardware she currently has, along with some more nasty software, and was promptly broke again. Needing a source of income, and stuck on a nowhere space station, she talked her way onto the Revenant one day when it docked for supplies.

She changes names frequently, having abandoned her birth name with her original body.

Name: "Ronin"; no other name given

Age/Race/Gender: 45/Human cyborg/Male

Appearance:
Occupation: Mercenary, bounty hunter, assassin

Weapons: Muramasa-class combat blade, Himawari (Sunflower); "Prominence" Plasma Wreath system installed.
Armor:
"Black Hawk" Hi-Mobility Combat Armor- Light, mobility-focused combat hardsuit; ballistic weave capable of stopping most small-arms fire, but weak to higher caliber/laser weaponry. Built-in HUD allows for visibility enhancements and IFF-targeting in all scenarios.

Items: Repulsor Drives- Built into both boots and installed on the shoulder blades of the Black Hawk; designed for short bursts of speed and long/high-altitude jumps. Flexible placement allows for superior maneuverability.
Mag Clamps- Magnetic inserts and clamps built into the Black Hawk's boots and claws to allow running or hanging on metal structures such as walls or even ceilings briefly.
Cybernetics (Right Arm)- Ronin's right arm has been replaced with a cybernetic prosthesis; durable and reinforced for speed and shock, designed to increase draw speed and strike strength.
Full Subjectivity Sync- A series of nerve implants that allow for full integration with the Black Hawk armor, greatly reducing input lag between the pilot's thoughts and the armor's actions, to near-zero levels.

Skills: Ronin is a master swordsman, extensively trained in both sword-fighting and maintaining his equipment. He is also extremely capable of parkour and traversal techniques, in or out of hardsuit. Has some engineering know-how when it comes to combat tech, having designed Himawari's "Prominence" subsystem, as well as the combat reinforcements on his cyber-arm. He's a fair hand at interrogation, especially where intimidation is involved.
Powers: Hi-Performance- An internal psionic discipline. Increases subject's physical speed and strength and/or reflexes and perception to plus-baseline levels in short bursts. Safe usage of enhancement does not last more than a few seconds; trying to force it to continue will cause subject to tear himself apart through exertion (physical), cause headaches and/or even cranial blood vessel trauma through extended use (mental). Cannot be used several times in succession without risking accruing the same penalty. Using both physical and mental enhancements at the same time greatly increases strain on the subject.

Combat Class/Role: Close-range skirmisher/assassin; Ronin's strategy is to use his superior mobility and hit-and-run tactics to pierce the enemy's defenses and cause chaos on the enemy backline, as well as quickly neutralize priority targets.

History: From backwoods game hunter to a notorious hunter of men, Ronin has had his share of experience when it comes to taking lives. Experience that, unfortunately, did not save him from recently being caught in a Federation crossfire, barely escaping summary execution, and finding himself with a life sentence in the inescapable Kyln. Defeated, broken, and missing his purpose in life, Ronin settled back for the long haul...

...Until some nice people decided to bust into a supposedly-inescapable prison to bust out their friend, and as many other criminals and cutthroats as they could gather. One of them being Ronin himself, of course. Reacquiring his armor and blade from the prison's "evidence locker," he jumped on board with the Revenant crew and set out for greener pastures. Three months later, despite being part of the most hated crew in the galaxy, he hasn't regretted his decision at all. After all, if it's a choice between dying in a prison cell of malnutrition or old age, and dying in a blaze of glory with Himawari in his hand, well...

...That's not really a choice at all, is it?

Other: ?

Name: “Benny Boomer” (Actual name: Benjamin Hannigan Quincy)
Age/Race/Gender: 28 – Human (Scottish descent due to colony origins and culture) - Male

Appearance: A young Caucasian male with short messy black hair (often made blacker with soot and explosive residue). Has wide blue eyes and rough skin that’s often gets riddled with bruises, burns, and explosive powder (whenever he decides a bath isn’t important). Face is mostly clean shaven but with the shadow of a beard often growing on it.

Occupation: Technical Mercenary. Experienced with explosives, sabotage, theft, cybernetic systems intrusion, and physical breaking and entering.

Weapons:

- RWC-BR7 Modular Battle Rifle (“The Boomstick”): A versatile weapon designed by the Rovik Weapons Corporation. It is a slow-firing, fully-automatic ballistic rifle with multiple firing modes (semi-auto, 3-shot burst, and full-auto) and a 30 round magazine. It can be equipped with both a reflex sight and adjustable scope as used by most common firearms. The BR7 was made for use in mid-range fire support. It is usually carried by designated marksmen in conventional Law Organizations and Special Forces units. Designed to eliminate targets wearing most common physical armor, it was created with the intention of being used against criminals and poorly-equipped insurgents. It has limited use against more high-tech defenses such as shields and powered-armor. The barrel of the gun can carry a single interchangeable attachment for the fulfillment of different purposes

- Grenade launcher RWC-BR7 attachment: Can fire a variety of different grenades meant for use in many other conventional grenade launcher models. Designed for both lethal and non-lethal munitions. Each grenade must be manually loaded prior to firing.

- Compact Shotgun RWC-BR7 attachment: Fires shotgun pellets in a spread with enough force to send most unarmored targets staggering backwards and fires independently of the main rifle. Used for close-quarter engagements often by SWAT or Special Forces operatives who carry the RWC-BR7. Can be loaded with both lethal and non-lethal shells as used by most compact shotgun models.

- Laser-cutter RWC-BR7 attachment: Generally used for slicing through hardened surfaces, it can also be used as an emergency weapon against shielded targets, though it is prone to overheating from sustained fire.

- L32-PDD arm-mounted laser pistol: A small personal defense device worn on the arm like a gauntlet, designed by Las-32 Enterprises, that functions much like a standard automatic laser pistol (firing small bursts of laser energy) though it overheats faster than most laser-based weapons due to its small size. The trigger is located on the arm, behind the gun itself and is pressed downwards to fire. It can fire 10 shots in full automatic before needing a cool down. The rechargeable magazine installed into the weapon can fire a 100 shots before being completely drained and requiring a long recharge time from power stations. In emergency situations, the battery can be solar-charged, but it takes 10 minutes of exposure to charge a single shot.

- A bionic arm (See Items)
- Removable scope with adjustable zoom (4x minimum - 12x maximum)
- High-Explosive grenades
- Flashbang grenades
- Tear Gas grenades
- Sleeping Gas grenades
- EMP grenades (for temporarily disabling systems, weapons, and shields)
- Incendiary grenades
- Cluster grenades (breaks apart into smaller less potent fragmentation grenades, poor at breaking through armor but lethal to soft targets)
- Fragmentation and Incendiary Tripmines (sticks to surfaces and detonates when internal sensors detect movement)
- Remote Explosive charges (conventional concept with his personal designs)
- Thermite charges (for breaking through reinforced metals)
- Acid Bomb (device meant for melting through some hardened surfaces but can double as a bioweapon)

Obviously he doesn't carry all these explosives at the same time, but he chooses the ones he believe might be necessary for his job.

Armor: (Armored)

Produced by Bulwark Defensive Technologies, it is a sealed environmental helmet complete with a heads-up display (that can be modified to display specific kinds of information on its interface) and vision modes that include Night vision and Thermal Imaging. Designed for use in hazardous environments by both soldiers and civilian militia with engineering or technical duties.


Sealable suit made by Bulwark Defensive Technologies as an engineer/technician suit that doubles as civilian ballistic body armor for use in violent or lawless zones. Contains various pockets and compartments for carrying gear, as well as activatable magnetized sections for attaching large objects such as rifles or welding torches.

Items:
- Bionic Arm (“Ol’ Skelly”): Used as a powerful throwing arm for grenades, a personal computer, and a general melee combat weapon. It also contains the “Skeleton Key” software designed by Benny that allows him to interface with almost any widely known computer device or electronic system to manually hack into their functions using a holographic display projected by a device just underneath the arm’s surface. More exotic and unique systems will require him to manually update the software with the necessary codes and files.
- Toolkit: A compact box usually attached to his suit but can be detached as needed. Contains small amounts of chemicals, and simple tools such as screwdrivers and small wrenches. Used both in his own time and out in the field if needed.
- Box of spare parts: A small box containing bits and pieces of scrap either collected from the field or salvaged from failed devices and/or experiments. Kept around in the field in case he needs to jury rig something on the fly. Useless for anything more complex than a dirty bomb, but Benny believes one can never have too many munitions.
- Jade turtle keychain: Carried out of sentiment

Skills: Knowledge in almost every form of explosive device and software system in Alliance space, and then some.
- Is aware of the various utilizations and blast radii of any explosive.
- Has a thorough practical grasp of physics and architecture which he often uses for his job.
- Can break into any cyber security system known to man (Time and level of success varies depending on security measures). Mostly for the sake of disabling or even reversing security protocols. His area of expertise is more on intrusion and disruption than general cyberwarfare.
- Has moderate skills in repairing and maintaining weaponry
- Can create improvised explosives with scrap as long as he has the right parts.
- High IQ and the ability to quickly analyze and multitask due to a case of ADHD
- Also due to his ADHD, his brain pumps out an abnormally large amount of adrenaline during stress situations, which increases his pain tolerance to high levels.

Powers: Has exhibited no signs of Psionic potential.

Combat Class/Role: Combat Engineer/Demolitionist: Above all else, Benny loves causing chaos in a fight. From breaking fortified enemy positions and forcing them to scatter and re-think their plans, to drawing enemies into explosive and sadistic traps. His job is to ensure no structure is safe and no hostile attack will go unpunished.

History: Pulled into the Revenant project after undercover Alliance agents posed as a gang hiring him for a bank heist. They trapped him and blackmailed him into joining project Revenant by threatening someone they care about. Was put into a coma due to a technical accident as part of the crew. Later on, Stryker promised him they would find a way to remove the Alliance’s leverage over him, after which he was more than happy to turn on his former masters and joining the crew in their bid for freedom.

Other:
Neo Eden – Benny’s original home colony, Neo Eden is a human colony within Alliance Space inhabited primarily by people of a Scottish heritage. This was due to the race of the colony ship’s crew that had arrived and founded it. The planet itself is a lush and verdant world, rich in resources from its flora and fauna. Mining is limited as the colony was converted into a primarily agricultural world, cultivating various crops and breeding different species of animals for export into Alliance space and beyond.

Others:

• Juz’ is written with the apostrophe and said differently (Jooz-daa).
• He tends to seemingly wander aimlessly than anything so it’s unlikely for him to be seen in the same place twice in a row unless he’s doing something there.
• The most reliable way to contact him is by pinging him on his holo or leaving him sticky notes in his room since that’s likely how he will talk to you anyway.

Personal notes from Dr. A█████, Head of Psionic Research and Development, [REDACTED]:

Name: Varrus
Age/Race/Gender: 63 /Illithid/Male
Appearance:


Occupation: Varrus was a chief medical officer specialising in chemical warfare and genetic research . Varrus is known throughout the alliance for making agents that liquefy lungs and could even melt your face off straight through your suit. He has also experimented with genetic augmentation to create the Federations deadliest soldiers. However, he was captured and transferred to be forced to work with the crew of the Revenant.

Weapons: The P.E. 01 is a classic rifle used by the iIllithid empire. While an energy based rifle, it is capable of using ballistic based ammunition if needed. This rifle is truly special in its ability to siphon psionic energy form its wielder in order to super-charge its rounds for extra damage. It is a semi-auto rifle with deadly accuracy and is a highly desired weapon on the black market. EMP grenades followed by canisters containing various toxins and poisons as well as 'other' chemicals. These other chemicals act as boosters to allow average specimens to perform incredible acts of physical prowess outside their range on normal abilities.

Armor: While both of his suits posses advanced filters and are suited well against harsh environments and extreme climates, they are different in function.

His first suit is worn primarily on the ship and when out on none combat missions. The appendages on the helmet are linked telepathically to Varrus' brain. This allows them to help Varrus when it comes to holding tools or various chemicals. It possesses decent shielding and works extremely well as a hazmat suit but would certainly be rather unreliable in combat situations. It is rather lightweight and flexible allowing the wearing to move comfortably and quickly.


His second suit is worn specifically during combat situations. It possesses decent shielding and armor along with advanced filtering equipment. It possesses several devices that allow Varrus to both inject himself and disperse various chemicals. The suit is not very flexible and is rather heavy but allows Varrus to perform tasks his fragile body would not normally be able to do.


Items: Aside from surgical equipment and a variety of secret chemical cases, Varrus carries nothing of interest except a list of names written on paper.

Skills: A science officer and medical expert. Varrus is capable of performing surgery on an alarming amount of species that are not limited to humanoid. His study of most forms of life has lead to to experiment with a variety of chemical agents. His skills as a chemist are also very noteworthy and have allowed him to develop a variety of chemical agents that the alliance has come up against.

Powers: Despite his frail body, Varrus possess a powerful mind. His psionic abilities allow him to speak telepathically and link multiple minds at once. When unarmed, he can also charged up psionic energy for energy based attacks. Due to his field of expertise, Varrus has taken particular enjoyment in peering into the minds of his victims to for interrogation. Strong willed individuals can resist but don't worry, Varrus has chemicals that will make them much more compliant.

Other: Varrus has a very specific reputation as a cold blooded murderer. His agents have allowed the Federation to make entire Alliance colonies disappear in a single gas attack. Make no mistake, Varrus is a killer and enjoys it more than any one.

Other:The Illithid Empire stands as a technological marvel. While some worlds have advanced more in weapons, armor, and instruments of war or space travel, the Illithid Empire stands unrivaled in medical advancements. Their naturally fragile forms helped bring about their need to develop a strong medical based technological system. What makes the Empire so dangerous is their natural affinity for psionic abilities. This enables their entirety of the Empire to function as a makeshift hivemind, operating only to advance the species and it's Empire. While their tech and psionic abilities make them troubling in combat, their understanding of genetic mutations allows the Empire to create massive monstrosities to ravage the battlefield. The Empire is not an aggressive one however, often buying dead or extremely hazardous worlds from other governments and terraforming the planet to enable a rich evolution of life. This enables a new world thought unbenifical and new species to emerge to join the Empire. The Illithid Empire remained neutral throughout the conflict between the Federation and the Alliance though the Empire wished to have a hand in it. Sending diplomats to meet with representatives and both governments. The objective was to offer medical and relief aid by donating doctors and advanced medical supplies. They had no intention of being aggressors in the war. While the Alliance unwillingness to work with 'aliens' declined the offer with rather rude comments, the Federation accepted. With the relief aid of the Illithid Empire to back them. Casualty rates dropped dramatically. Neutralization of alliance chemical warfare also helped the Federation tremendously. When the alliance caught wind the the Illithid Empire was giving relief aid to the Federation, they began to specifically target medical outposts in hopes to make the Empire back off.

Name: Jonah Browning
Age/Race/Gender: Jonah is somewhere in his mid to late thirties; Human (cyborg) Male
Appearance: Jonah wears a long leather coat, a blue shirt, black jeans, and a bandana around his neck. He also decided to lean into the cowboy aesthetic and wears a wide-brimmed hat.
Occupation: Jonah works odd jobs but he primarily works as a hired gun or bounty hunter, whichever job he thinks is better. This does have a tendency to make him turn down jobs he finds detestable.
Weapons: Jonah’s tool de reguer is his LAPA 12-.30 Experimental Frontier Weapon. The gun is both lever-action and pump-action, allowing it to load both conventional rounds and shotgun slugs from one of two feeding tubes located either within the pump or the stock. The hunk of metal is best described as someone took drugs, looked at two guns, said “why not both?”, and drew the plans while on said drugs. When they woke up and redrew what they made before, this was the result. The barrel has been specially treated to resist near all wear caused by firing.

He also carries a more conventional (for him) pistol in the form of a high caliber pistol akin to a 21st century Desert Eagle. The high recoil and kickback is compensated for by his cybernetics, allowing him to use the thing without being hit in the face every time he fires. Jonah keeps a hunting knife in a sheath if he should lose his main weapons or wants a more stealthy way of taking down opponents.
Armor: Jonah uses simple armor. He strapped metal plates on, threw his jacket on, and called it a day, resulting in a very wastelander look. His metal arm does protect a bit, but no more than anything else made of metal.
Items: His weapons, his biomods (right arm, right eye, some neural implants) and the clothes on his back.
Skills: Jonah can handle his guns very well since he would have died a long time without learning. He also knows how to do more “ranch-y” things, like handling sheep and riding horses.
Powers: Jonah doesn’t any inherent powers (he’s just a human), but his augmentations do grant him enhanced strength in one arm, as well as several different vision types (UV, infrared)
Combat Class/Role: Gunslinger. Jonah is focused on shooting, and with his cybernetics, he is a crack shot.
History: Jonah was in prison, having gotten a deal for the government in exchange for finding some old gang members. When Revenant broke in, he realized what was happening, broke out, and helped cover the escape.
Other: The first thing Jonah did when he came on board was flop down on a bed in room 9 and sleep for 12 hours. He speaks with a Southern accent.
