Name: Veronica Valentine.
Role: SWAT
D.O.B. 12/19/2009 (Age: 22.)
Height: 5'5"
Weight: 130
Nationality: American.
Appearance: Geared and ungeared

Background: Veronica was born late 2009. She grew up on the streets and took part in a handful of gangs to make a living. She had always dreamed of escaping the gritty world, and the stories she was told of how nice everything used to be filled her head with idealist notions. Veronica wants the world to be a better place, and she knows that it's going to be a hard fight to get there. Veronica found here moment of freedom when she was busted as part of a security raid by the Neo-Bay police department at age fifteen. Taken into custody, she faced several years in prison but won her freedom by taking a deal that she would serve in their SWAT team instead of rotting in a cell. The training she faced was harsh. Harsher than most, since most of the team didn't look fondly on her for taking what they considered an honorable position as a way to squeeze out of a proper punishment.

When her time was up, she turned around and joined the SWAT team almost immediately. She knew Mack for a short time, but they never really spoke much. When the Neo-Bay police department was disbanded, Veronica wandered without a job since SWAT was all she really knew how to do. She didn't want to go back to a life of crime, since that was the one thing she wanted out of more than anything. She had browsed through some of the various security positions, but none of them really spoke to her. When Veronica heard of COPS being formed, she joined almost immediately once she saw Mack on board. A familiar face in a sea of mystery was a welcome relief.

Background:

Born in the Russin city Vladivostok alongside her identical twin Natasha. Varya was raised in loving caring family. As children, Varya and her sister shared a very close bond and very rarely seen apart from one another. The two doing nearly everything together. Be it good or bad. Growing up Varya parents made sure to do everything possible the sisters had a good upbringing and where good little girls. Sadly for Varya's and Natasha's parents, those efforts didn't bear fruit a the sisters from a young age loved nothing more than pulling pranks and picking fights.

Varya parents desperate to get their kids under control before they ended up being arrested or killed tried everything to get the girls to behaviour. Tried everything but had little luck so in 2015 now aged now 13 parents tried one last effort to get the girls under control sent Natasha to live with her grandparents in had moved to Neo Bay City when it was taken over by a Japanese security firm they held jobs with.

This separation bred a lot resentment in Varya who continued to misbehave. Even with both her parents now able to focus on her and try to put her back on the right path. It took most of Varya time in high school and military youth program and some very harsh parenting. To put Varya on the right path, who graduated in 2020 with some of the highest marks for her year. The now 18-year-old Varya now a somewhat well-behaved law abiding citizen.

Having finished school, Varya decided to join a Japanese owned security firm's private army. During her training, she impressed her instructors with her high level of marksmanship, both thanks to her time in the military youth program and raw natural talent. She was offered training as a sniper after a short stint as a basic soldier. Seeing no harm in taking the training having found life as grunt quite unsatisfying. It was during the company's brutal sniper training she found her calling.

Once she passed her training, Varya found herself staying with the security firm until 2024. In that time she participated in multiple small skirmishes with rival companies all over the world. Merely going where ever she was sent. She even spent some time in Latin America when war was declared by the Latin America's drug cartels. But, as 2024 dawned Varya found herself struggling to take pleasure or pride in her job. So when on leave in Neo City, visiting her sister. She quit her job and moved in with her sibling, liking Neo Bay City, despite its problems. Who over the years had become a police officer following in her grandfather's footsteps.

While living Natasha. Varya took an interest in her sibling's line of work. Finding the idea of being a cop appealing after probing Natasha about. Working to protect the community and uphold law and order sounded nice to Varya. Much better than working for some company's bottom line where law and order merely by-products. Thinking it might be interesting and be a good fresh start she applied to the Neo City police. And due to her experience, she was offered a job a police sniper. Provided she passed the police academy. Using her sister to help her, Varya did so quickly.

Although her time as a cop was short, Varya enjoyed being a police sniper, although she often complained about the pay. It was that during that time she meet a one Ray 'Mack' Yancy and the two became very well acquainted (need to work out) As the police force was dissolved Varya, helped Yancy campaign to get their jobs back. However having no luck, Varya found herself going back to the security firm that first trained her. Working for them as a training instructor in Neo Bay City. Only sniping for them if they needed a sniper in Neo Bay or in Russia
Varya finding no job in her work. But, having little choice as without a job she couldn't feed herself.

Over the next year, she watched Yancy develop a drinking problem, often sharing a drink with him. But, after a year she simply stopped talking to him. During that four-year period, Varya did a little vigilante work. Picking off some criminals, as it reminded her of the short time as a police sniper and it amused her.

In 2031, when approached to join the C.O.P.S. Varya eagerly accepted once it was explained to her, although was a little hesitant about working with Yancy.

Bᴀᴄᴋɢʀᴏᴜɴᴅ
Tronstad was born in mid '98, just in time to see the government collapse. He doesn't remember much of his childhood besides the hardships. Being born into a middle class family doesn't help very much when the scope of the state crumbles a little more everyday. The financial burden grew heavier on Tronstad's family, but his father persevered and pumped his naive son with optimism. Tronstad remembers witnessing a hand full of violent incidents involving anti-government radicals and militarized police in the streets and how increasingly volatile they became. His father was a part of the police force himself before late into the protests he turned turned in his badge and joined his colleagues in a revolution against the state.

When Tronstad was a little older, he found himself living in the streets with his family. This lasted a few years until his father started taking on private contracts with various security firms to finally obtain a permanent residence. It became more and more obvious that conglomerates were gaining power. Despite this, Tronstad did not see his father very often as he had to work long hours in order to keep the family stable.

By 2018, the 20-year old Carter Tronstad was ambitious and wanted to follow in his fathers footsteps. Both his mother and his father caught a very deadly illness and it took his mothers life very quickly. His father, on the other hand, held out for a few more years. Tronstad managed his own life and decided it would be better to mourn elsewhere so he decided to turn his attention eastward and settle out in Neo-bay once the world events seemed less violent. Neo-bay wasn't exactly a picture perfect city, but Tronstad liked it better like that. He was interested in what it had to offer, even if what it was offering was dangerous.

There, he did work for an organized crime family as an associate. He spent a few more years extorting private companies and businesses for money, and expanding the territory that the crime family dealt with. Tronstad was shown the ropes by a few guys who were in the business for a while. He was taught everything: carjacking, lockpicking, drug dealing, extortion, you name it. He enjoyed the sense of freedom that it gave him; he liked not being tied down with the law, though he still had some concerns with rival firms. At the age of 25, Tronstad grew somewhat notorious, being known for his methods of intimidation and his effectiveness when it came to his job. His associates thought he had reached his power threshold and decided to whack him. Tronstad was beaten and had his right arm crushed by a truck. He was left for dead, but in the nick of time he was saved by a private military police force that had investigated the disturbance due to a call someone reported. With the technology available at the time, he was able to get a prosthetic limb for his right arm which he would later enhance to a cybernetic arm. Tronstad was tried in court and given the choice to be thrown in a private jail for life, or work as an informant for the private company. He took the duty of being an informant, and other security firms started to notice Tronstad's value of having criminal knowledge. He started doing contract work for various private military companies and security firms in attempts to retain some degree of order in Neo-Bay.

Carter continued taking the law into his own hands for 8 years working alongside private security companies. In a few instances, he became well acquainted with Mack Yancy, whom he had shared a few contracts with here and there. He knew Yancy as someone, who like Tronstad, wasn't drafted into the security business, but rather enlisted on his own accord. Yancy often called Tronstad in like a pundit when he needed some sort of key information on a local gang, or whether he just needed some extra muscle summoned. It would only be a matter of time before Carter Tronstad received his next call.

Background
Michael was born in Canada to working class parents Grant and Ima Yancy. Michael was always a well behaved child but his peers would always mention how 'intense' he seemed, he was very focused and always had a strong sense of responsibility and duty. His main vice was his desire to compete and to better himself, so Michael became very engrossed in sports, particularly fencing and kendo where he loved to take on strong opponents with sharp technique and reflexes. But soon even this wasn't enough, and his desire to challenge himself lead him to joining the youth army cadets in america at age 16 and graduating with honors at age 20. Instead of joining a private army like most of his collegues did, he went on to join the Neo Bay police force immediately. He took to the job as his true calling and made sergeant in 2 and half years. The fastest promotion ever at the precinct.

Sadly in 2027 the Neo Bay police force was dismantled by the council and a decorated 24 year old 'Mack' Yancy was without a job and without duty. The other officers from the Neo Bay precinct went on to join security, the secret service, or even the army. But Mack didn't want to do anything else. He needed the challenge and the duty of upholding justice. It wasn't enough to just shoot guns for a paycheck. So Mack began drinking for the next 4 years trying to numb the pain of losing the life that he truly loved.

Until Mack was approached by Tim Taggart, who wants Mack to lead the new C.O.P.S. initiative......

Background: Jessica was born and raised in Toronto, a city that like any other, struggled to maintain peace amongst its citizens as the years went on. Being raised by a single mother wasn't easy, especially in a one bedroom apartment where your next-door neighbours were drug dealers and pimps with prostitutes going in and out on the daily. The fact that her upbringing was surrounded by nothing but chaos and struggles led the young girl to mature very fast, especially after her mother disappeared, never to be seen again, when Jessica was just 14. To this day, she still doesn't know whether her mother is dead or alive.

When Jessica turned 16, she moved to Neo-Bay for a fresh start. Not that her life would be that much better, but hopefully it wouldn't be worse than it already was. When she arrived, she took it upon herself to develop some fundamental hand-to-hand combat skills in order to be able to defend herself better than the average Joe. She trained every single day, unless she was extremely ill or had a serious injury. Over the years, Jessica acquired various skills such as free running, Krav Maga, and some close-range weapons training.

At the ripe age of 22, Jessica's small apartment which she had called home for so long was burn down by a local gang. Maybe it was a mistake, or maybe they were targeting her, but Jessica vowed vengeance once she learned that the only picture of her mother she usually carried with her was in the apartment that evening. With this new powerful thirst for revenge, Jessica stopped at nothing to find the perpetrators responsible for the arson. Over time, this obsession changed the young woman for the worse. She started turning to crime to get by, making any easy target into her victim despite their age, gender, or disability. Jessica simply didn't care about anyone else but herself, and the simple thrill of her new lifestyle kept her going.

This went on for a few years until one night, Jessica broke into the home of no other than Tim Taggart. Despite her regular use of stealth in burglaries, she was caught as she was about to exit the second-story window. Jessica jumped despite Taggart's threat to use force, but he nonetheless delivered. He shot her with a non-lethal projectile, leaving her lying on the ground below, cringing in pain. Ironically, despite her disabled state, Taggart calmly made his way downstairs to compliment her skills. She had almost gotten away with it, and he'd never had anyone one-up him like that. It was then he offered her a deal: suffer the [additional] repercussions of breaking into his home, or join his new team of crime fighters.

Background:
Rohan was in the foster care system from a young age, never really knowing his parents. That was fine by him though, if they wanted to drop their son off in some strangers care than he didn't exactly care to meet them. His foster parents were nice enough anyways, even if they weren't exactly strict. Ro could leave all night without a word and come back and they wouldn't question a second of it. He appreciated that, even if he did take advantage of it sometimes. He would get mixed up with what some might call the wrong crowd, but he was smart about what he did and how he did things so that no one had anything on him. Besides, it wasn't like he was a bad kid or anything, just a bad place. The border town he grew up in was basically lawless and he had to watch everyday as drugs, violence, and money tore the place apart, tore families apart. He hated seeing it, and he had no doubt it was what tore his parents from him at a young age but he couldn't escape it.

He had worked jobs all across town so that when he was old enough to he got his license and bought a car. Sure, he had drove before that but doing so legally was far more convenient and it meant that he was definitely experienced. Driving just came naturally to him, he had some sort of knack for it and with it he was very useful to the people who called this place their home. He ran drugs, he ran weapons, he just ran. He was smart too, and her learned the landscape and town better than anyone else, knew the ins and outs and knew them well. He was fast and maneuverable, no one could catch him, hell they couldn't even see him coming. It was a good setup and he put some of the money towards his foster parents. They deserved some for housing him and he was sure they turned a blind eye to what he did. The rest of the money went to his car and stuff like a TV for his room, kid stuff. Eventually gang culture broke out and the town turned on itself and the gang rivaling the one Rohan did work for said that if he didn't get out of the game his foster family was done for. He took it to heart and realized he needed away from the place. He told his foster parents he needed a fresh start and after a somewhat tearful mostly understanding goodbye, he was off on the road.

Rohan had heard of Neo Bay, moves being made there and it was tempting, especially since no one knew him there, no one had anything on him. He had no place else to be so he figured he might as well check it out, it was about time for a road trip anyhow. It was a great place, sure and there was plenty of opportunities for someone like him to make money. First off, the street racing scene. This was where he started making moves, making cash. He learned the city over time and as he did he found that no one could match him in a car or any other vehicle really. He weaved and drifted like no one else even dared think about doing, so needless to say he won a lot. Secondly, once his name got out there it turned out corporations were willing to shell out a lot of dough for someone who could 100% get what they needed where they needed. Turns out when there's no law, people aren't above trying to sabotage companies by ramming their deliveries off of the road and trying to sabotage them by stealing the product in transport. Luckily for him, Rohan never got caught. He became pretty popular in both scenes, and that was just fine by him. Not to mention sometimes they persuaded him to jack a rival car, and get it back. He knew a car inside and out, and it put money on the table and that's all he cared about.

One day he finally got caught, a branch of a company that didn't look kindly on him sabotaged the vehicle they were having him drive. They thought he would die in the crash but he lived with a few injuries and crawled from the wreck. He wasn't so much caught as he got out of the game playing around with corporations. He heard of a new organization, a force called C.O.P.S. Rohan figured he had the perfect resume to get in and was willing to do just about anything to get in and get out of the politics game of mega-corporations and maybe make the difference he wished he had seen in his old border town.

[Lady Selune]

Role: Demo
D.O.B. 1st April, 2005
Height: 6'1
Weight: 170 lbs
Nationality: Scottish
Appearance:

'Juggernaut' Fire Support Suit

Her face

Background: If you've ever wanted someone who will turn an entire building to concrete and rebar rubble and walk away whilst smoking a cigarette, Rachel is your woman. Alternatly known as 'Richie,' 'Racket,' 'Claymore' or 'Breakdown' (if you want to piss her off,) Rachel is a born and raised military girl. Both of her parents were Private Security soldiers, her father specialising as a sapper in order to put up buildings, and her mother a demolitionist specialising in tearing down buildings. This unique 'two sides of the coin' childhood meant that when it was her chance to join the forces, she was uniquly placed to tear down everything.

Her training was pretty by the book, at least when it came to her soldier training. Her knowledge of demolitions, and a degree in civil engineering meant that almost everything she knew about explosives came from either her parents or herself, including what would become her most famous gadget, her own take on the claymore. Sending out small sound pulses, the device can be planted on the ground or even drilled into doors and windows, and as soon as the sound is disrupted, they will go off.

Theme Song: Drop It (and by 'it,' she means the entire building.)
