Soft reboot and semi-continuation of GEARs Silent Line. Continuing after some time has elapsed.

Silverwind and Max have been seconded to a new direct action, fast response unit, optimised with the best technology for use against high-value targets and infrastructure, acting as a 'silver bullet' against emergent threats and situations. Still focused on eliminating the shadowy, dangerous and frightening organization known as the 'Silent Line', they are poised to strike across Arvara's surface at a moment's notice.

Setting info here - 1drv.ms/u/s!Ah_XMfA4YqeyhTvoeKTMBDDmC…

After the operation to assist resistance fighters, intelligence uncovered from the captured Silent Line informant revealed that they had begun to establish a network of caches, bases, installations and equipment all across Arvara, apparently building toward some final strategy, the nature of which is still unknown. Uncovering the nature of the operation and stopping it before it happens is of the utmost necessity, resulting in the deployment of advanced prototypes and the formation of the 'Silver Bullet' units for rapid deployment into hotspots across the planet.
Rapidly organised, Silver and Max are prepped and ready to go within a few short days.

Looking good! When I'm home tonight I'll add my bits- feel free to already kick off the IC, as it'll just be Max and Anna I'll add in when back!

Got something up as a start, just a gentle opener to catch up on elapsed time and set up our first mission - something small but interesting to get us going. I have the idea that this first mission could be used to hint at a recurring antagonist and set up the mystery of what Silent Line's project is; maybe give us a name but no more info on it just yet, and then subsequent ones start unveiling more of the mystery, and pitting us against some recurring villains. It would be good to have rivals/nemeses for our characters.
Just ideas at the moment, but I'd love to get an epic plot going with high-stakes action and adventure, starting off small and building up into a balls-out full-on conflict with huge set-pieces and larger-than-life events and situations.

Looks good! I like this lots! All works for me- I think I'll keep Max with a more defaulted GEAR, though he might have some extra tricks up his sleeves!

Only comment- it's Anna, not Alicia :P

EDIT: Just finished her CS. I enjoyed writing her up- I feel she's a female Sam Fisher meets a more gritty, urban character, in the last RP she probably doesn't show her entire colours I feel as a stealthy operator- here she just might.

EDIT EDIT: Boomshakalaka, post is up. I'm gonna try and stick to my three paragraph rule here, just so I can keep my replies tight!

I have no idea where I got Alicia from xD
I should remember Anna - it's my wife's name... >.> <.<
I'll edit that so it's correct

Haha, no worries! Really liking the new design introduced- it's a little more versatile/cool to work with! I see it in Max's eyes as basically a dream machine- but something very experimental/odd to the use. Thinking through some loadouts already!

Glad you liked it; some people can be a bit iffy about transforming mecha, but they've always been a favourite of mine when they're done well, anyway. I love fighter jets and I love mecha - have one that turns into the other is like having reece's peanut butter cups, but in roleplaying form.

It's no issue to me- so long as it's played straight (they aren't dominant in either field, just more a jack of all trades that's really difficult/unwieldy in most combat operations)- Max is a guy who fits that ethos well, and I think Anna might have something up her sleeve too haha.

A bit exhausted tonight- short post of exposition, just setting up the team and what Max is up to. I'll post again hopefully on Sunday night!

No worries, I'll get a reply of something similar up myself today or tomorrow during the day, likely tomorrow as I'll be busy this afternoon.

Apologies for the delay in the post! Just putting together something took me a while- got back super late on Sunday so going back to ordinary from today hopefully haha. Posts from me might be a tad shorter after, I'd hope!

Oh man, I had some fun writing up Anna on this one- you almost can't tell :P

Believe it or not, the thermal-imaging tech Anna uses already exists (the resistant weave)- and that can be expanded upon quite nicely if this continues along (and you're happy with it)- I've recently come across a few ideas that can make her even more frightening that fit the lore!

I'm back home now, so will try to get something up tomorrow - will be good to get back into it after a little break. Was nice to visit my folks and see the old home grounds again. Gave me a bit of a jazz up I needed to get back into things.

Gonna throw a curveball in next post! I feel a bit screwy doing this, but hey, it's the perk of writing for characters with a little prior setup!
