@PhoenixRising Np. And remember. Once you make your CS, make sure to post it here in the OCC first for review. If everything goes well, you may then post it to the CS thread.

Digging Deep

In-Depth Appearance

Sean is 6'2 with a more muscular body, having been toned from his different martial arts training. His dark brown hair is normally disheveled to the point of where his light green eyes are near impossible to see due to him not putting much time into his appearance. Sean normally wears a loose fitting t-shirt and shorts on his off time, opting for comfort over style. His field gear consists of loose fitting black pants, a black shirt and a light Kevlar jacket, choosing to wear as little as possible so he won't be slowed down.

Habits and Quirks

• Tends to zone out quite often
• Often paces around when stressed
• Doesn't know when to stop talking
• Fiddles with his hands when nervous
• Trains religiously

Likes

• Socializing with others
• Working out
• Binge watching series
• Reading
• Video Games

Dislikes

• Mistreatment of others
• Being tricked
• Smoking
• Drugs
• Overcomplicating things

Fears

• Being betrayed by someone he trusts
• Death, or the death of his teammates
• Heights
• Open Ocean

Personality

Sean does his best to be as friendly with others as possible. Due to the fact that he didn't really have many friends growing up, he ended up not being the best at socializing, and often overcompensates by being a pushover in hopes of pleasing others. Sean lacks confidence in what he does, which causes him to doubt his own skills at times, as well train constantly to be as good of a fighter as he can. He is quite hard to anger, but if you do get him angry, the most likely thing he will do is simply ignore you, since he isn't one to insult others. Sean respects authority, and has very strong beliefs in what's right and wrong. In missions, he follows orders quite well, and has devout trust in his teammates, and is willing to put his life on the line for them.

Origins

Background

Sean didn't have the best home environment growing up. His dad was a member of the military, discharged after taking a bullet to the spine and losing control of his legs when Sean was only 4. Due to this, his father fell into depression and dealt with it through alcohol, meanwhile, his mother was a workaholic and although she loved her son, she was hardly eve home, meaning that Sean was constantly home alone with his father, who would very often get mad over the smallest of things, and take out this anger on Sean. With an abusive father, and a mother that he hardly saw, Sean tended to be in his own world most of the time in an attempt to cope. This carried over to when Sean was in school, causing him to constantly zone out, and when paired with his social anxiety, making friends wasn't too easy, and he came off as awkward, which naturally caused him to be a target for bullying, and after coming home covered in bruises multiple times, his mother eventually signed him up for self defense classes, which would start his love for martial arts.

One thing that was a light in Sean's life was the sentinels, who Sean looked up to, and loved to read about, and he constantly fantasized about being one of them. At age 13, Sean's father died of alcohol poisoning, leaving him with only his mother. Rather than being home alone, Sean got his mother to enroll him in boxing, which he had found he was incredibly good at, and soon started to begin pursuing other types of fighting. When Sean was in college he found himself lacking direction, and when he heard about the sentinel program being restarted, he quickly left college to become a sentinel, planning on putting his fighting skills to use.

Place of Origin

Detroit, Michigan

Family

Sean's only living family is his mother, Sarah Black.

Abilities

Passive-Fighting skill - Sean's proficiency in boxing and various other fighting styles allow him to best near anyone in hand to hand combat with skill alone, although that doesn't mean he will always be stronger physically, yet this is useless if he can't reach his target.
Passive-The Road Less Travelled By-Sean is very agile, allowing him to use parkour to cover ground faster
ULT-Physical Enhancer Sean injects himself with a serum made to enhance his strength and speed for a short period of time, allowing him to hit harder and faster, and also ignore pain for the duration, lasts for 30 seconds

Weapons

Sean has gauntlets with metal at the knuckles, causing him to pack quite a punch

Extras

Reinhardt is my favorite character, I also made a really bad pun in the weapons section.

[PhoenixRising]

So I couldn't figure out how to make the separating lines, because I'm an idiot, and I have a feeling I missed something, because I'm really tired, so if I need to change anything, please tell me.

[Cello]

@PhoenixRising

You can make the separating lines by using [.hr], just remove the period. Hope that helps.

[PhoenixRising]

Thanks. I kept putting the dot and nothing happened and I was so confused. I'll put them in soon. Bit busy atm

[Lmpkio]

@PhoenixRising Yeah I was meaning to change some of the original CS' "glitches". Regardless, I should've fixed them.

And character looks good. Accepted.

Also, for everyone else, I just want to put this out. As much as I originally planned for us to continue from where the RP last started, considering that pretty much half of the other original members decided not to return, I've been thinking on ultimately starting right from the beginning. I'd like to have a vote on that. If you guys want to reboot, I'm down for it. (In fact, I may even have the old players copy and past most of the old structure if they want). If you guys just want to continue from where we left off, I'm also down for that. Again, let me guys know via voting on this, and once I get the majority vote, we'd go from there.

[Cello]

@Lmpkio It didn't seem like we were that far in before. Let's just go from the start. Less confusing.

[PhoenixRising]

Let's do it from the start

[Awesomoman64]

@Lmpkio

I vote complete restart for a few reasons. As you pointed out most of the original players are gone and really all that was done in the last RP was establish their characters. Since we'd either be pushing them to the side or killing them off the whole intro becomes moot. Be easier to just wipe the slate clean.

Another, and this is just a completely personal opinion, the first mission the team got felt like way too big a leap. Taking out one of the terrorist leaders feels like something the team should earn, having all three handed to them right off the bat just feels cheap.

[Lmpkio]

@Awesomoman64 I was even thinking of that earlier today too. While it would be epic and all, the heroes wouldn't be ready at all. Maybe the Ex-Sentinel leaders, but then again, I agree it's a big stretch. And of course the half being gone it'll be pointless.

So yeah, I agree. We need a complete reboot of this RP and start from scratch. I'll find a way to make the first post later today and then continue from there.

[Argetlam350]

Just forewarning, if this starts up this weekend I won't be able to post until Tuesday, going to be out of town until then. Leaving in a few hours.

[PhoenixRising]

@Lmpkio So when are we starting? Unless we're waiting for more people.

My Hider

When you're excited to rp after a long period of time. Lol

[Lmpkio]

@PhoenixRising Ik that feeling. And I think I'll start a day after the 4th of July. That means people can still make profiles if they hadn't made any already and then have people not be so busy. But I promise you that it will be on the 5th.

Also, you might wanna make a character ASAP.
