Bu- but I didn't! D: I kept it!

[GingerBoi123]

can I apply as a martial?

[Barrett]

@GingerBoi123
Like the title says, the final decision is tomorrow evening. So you can put a character sheet in the running for martial and if the GM decides it's better or more suitable for the RP than the other applications for Martial, then you get in.

All this is in the first post of the OOC though.

[GingerBoi123]

Name: Archie "Hornet" Smith
Role: Martial
D.O.B: 31st July 2010
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 152 pounds
Nationality: England
Appearance:

Out of Gear (pre-accident)

In Gear

Background: Archie was born in Kent, England, and enjoyed a pretty normal life in the countryside. His father was a Royal Marine, and despite his mother’s wishes, Archie wanted to follow in his Dad’s footsteps. After finishing school, it was barely days before Archie enlisted into the British military. Becoming a marine was one of his toughest challenges, and his proudest. After gruelling training, Archie became an SAS (Special Air Service) Commando at just 18. His squad, the "Hornets", were a squad that specialised in Stealth Operations, and Archie's aptitude for stealth and CQC quickly became apparent when he survived in hostile territory for three days and three nights, completely undetected and with nothing but his combat knife. The motto "Who Dares Wins" was a saying from the SAS, a saying he'll never forget. The SAS emblem can be found inscribed onto his left shoulder.



However, what was meant to be a simple operation quickly turned into a disaster that changed his life. The mission was to infiltrate a terrorist stronghold at night, recover intel and extract What wasn't mentioned was a huge night patrol, landmines around the perimeter and spotlights on almost every corner. It was simply impossible for normal soldiers. His closest friend in the squad was almost killed if it wasn't for Archie, as he had pushed the man out of the way of an RPG. That explosion did, however, took away his legs and left him completely scorched and almost unrecognisable. He should have died. He was quickly rushed away as soon as possible, and on the next flight to America, where their cybernetics was the only way to save him.

With no future in the British military, Archie turned to the rumours of C.O.P.S. Combining his skills and new cybernetic enhancements, Archie set out to become an effective and terrifying Martial, striking and fading in the dark like clockwork. Adopting the callsign of "Hornet" after his squad, he aims to be the best Martial there ever will be.

[Xandrya]

Is it okay for my character to say some words or random phrases in Spanish? Like when you call someone names behind their back or something?

[Dolerman]

Valeriya Ilyushin

Name: Valeriya Ilyushin
Role: Wheeler
D.O.B. : October 16 2006 (24 Years old)
Height: 5 ft 4 inches (1.63 meters)
Weight: 163 lbs (73.96 Kg)
Nationality: Russian-American (Neo-Bay)
Appearance:

Appearance

Warning: Part of her backstory (the Incident hider) contains a dark theme, if you feel uncomfortable with darker themes, I suggest you read around it.
Background: Valeriya's parents were immigrants into the US. Having saved up the money to legally immigrate into the country, they sought out to make a new life for themselves in one of the last countries with an actual police force. On top of that, Valeriya was only 3 when they immigrated, and her young age had given them more incentive than they'd ever need to move to Neo-Bay. Once settled, her father looked for work. Her father was a mechanic in Russia, so he put his talents to use immediately, setting up a shop. Her mother had agreed to care for Valeriya until she was old enough to look after herself. But luck smiled upon them, as her father's talent became popular. He even had to move his business into a bigger building, and hire a few people to help him with the increased work flow. Things felt comfortable for a while.

Incident

Then Valeriya got her entire life changed in one blur of a moment.

A month after her 16th birthday a neighborhood boy who she had been friends with for 3 years attacked her. Commiting a series of crimes, with assault and kidnapping being two of the charges placed against him. It turns out he had been subtly hinting that he had a crush on her for 3 years, but she never picked up on it. So he snapped, kidnapped her, and beat her for not picking up on his hints. Not to mention that he had raped her. Once the police finally found them. They placed the boy under arrest, then thrown threw him in jail after the court deemed him guilty. However, that incident changed her forever. She had been a semi-social person who enjoyed reading and working with her father in his shop. Now she had become a very closed in person, who kept her face buried in either a book or a vehicle. And seldom ever interacted with people.

And now her typical clothing consists of pants, long sleeved shirts, or anything that covers up enough of her body that only her head, hands, and feet are seen.

4 months after the incident she joined up with the Youth Army Cadets. That's where she met Mack Yancy, although he left about a year later due to graduating. So they hadn't become friends, but were decent acquaintances, as she had only talked to him on a few occasions. But never let on about the incident to him, or anyone else she actually talked to. Her next 3 years in the Youth Army Cadets was spent in near solitude, studying and training hard until her graduation. Where she graduated honors and top of her class.

She did not apply to the Police department after he graduation. In fact, after she graduated, she went back to her father's shop to work for the next year before she joined up with an official racing circuit. Raced with them for 2 and a half years as the best driver in the league before leaving. But she hadn't raced with just the league, she also raced in underground circuits, and even worked with some of the security firms as a free lance driver. Hired for a job, and once the job was finished, she went about her usual business.

@Dynamo FrokaneOkay, I've edited it. I hope he's good to go now

[Penultimate_Pi]

Hey, folks. I was recommended to this RP by @Dynamo Frokane himself after another of his RPs closed down. He offered me a potential spot here, so I'm just offering a character in return.

Jamie

Name: Jamie "Jay" Packard
Role: The Sharpshooter
D.O.B.: May 17, 1999
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 189 lbs.
Nationality: Finnish

Appearance:

Normal

Full Gear

Background:
Jamie Packard hasn't exactly had the best of luck in his childhood. When the turn of the millennium saw the Anarchist movement erupt, his family found themselves caught in the heat, what with Nora Packard being a small-time cop in Imatra. Unprepared to fight such a major outbreak, and yet unwilling to turn away from her duty, Nora fought her best and was ultimately beaten down and publicly executed alongside ten other members of her brigade. This was just before little Jamie was even five years old yet, barely even able to grasp the idea of what was happening in the world and why her mother was so suddenly gone.

As the time of the 'Revolution' began to rear its ugly head, Jamie's father Gustrav found himself being drafted into the military. Fearing the worst after seeing his wife die, Gustrav had his son sent to live with his uncle in Switzerland, where Jay could hopefully live and grow up in safety. Though the boy did end up quite safe, Jamie's uncle couldn't help but concern over his brother, unwittingly exposing Jamie to the many evils and violence of the modern freedom movement.

Come age 8, and the poor child had an equally poor outlook on life ahead. Even as some semblance of order would return, the machinations of the world remained changed. Taxes were long exhausted, stock fluctuated wildly, private defense and major corporations boomed and dominated. Even after the war was over, Gustrav gave no signs of returning. Jamie's uncle went into depression, the remainders of his money spent drowning himself in cheap alcohol. Jamie couldn't help but be lost and alone, unable to yet act for himself and yet unsure of what he could even do.

At age 12, Jamie Packard was taken into government custody after a court ruling decided his uncle was unfit to remain a legal guardian for him. Any extensive care plans that would've taken the child in were long gone now; the only place willing to put forth the effort of taking him in happened to be one of the seedier private military corporations. They would teach him that the most common, the most well-paying, the only business worth pursuing at all in this new world had to be security detail. As much as Jamie would reject and resent their teachings and training to turn him into another of their corrupt soldiers, he simply had no other option lef to him as an individual, and could only force himself to accept that.

In 2012, one year later, the private industry housing Jamie is compromised after the Anarchist movement exposes their criminal practices and undermines several of their operations. Unfit to continue, the company attempts a merger with a more localized security firm in order to regain a foothold, only to be subsequently absorbed. By this stroke of luck, Jamie is able to come in contact with his father, who had quietly transitioned into work as a security agent without sharing the news with his family. This certain revelation leads to Jay attempting to formally disown Gustrav as his father, utterly disgusted over the man's apparent selfishness- alongside the fact that he seemed to be fooled into the same mindset that private security was the best job to pursue.

Fast-forward several decades, filled with strife, training, controversy, and war. Jay Packard, age 32, is now one of the top marksmen in his branch of the agency - but only begrudgingly so. He works as a skilled assassin and watchman, skilled enough to take on the more dangerous and expensive of operation with little strife and cost. Jay's aim in his field is the money, not to fight for any particular side. For as swiftly as he works, he too is silently dissatisfied with the politics of the world and quietly longing for the power to change that.

In early August, Jamie was extended an offer to join the Combat Operative Private Service program, and help take Neo-Bay City back from the rings of corruption and violence that now governed it.
