It probably wouldn't be flush with his wrist, or the rest of his gauntlet of that's what you were wondering, it'd be pretty easy to attach a weapons platform to the top of his wrist. It would kind of look like the contraption on that gi Joe, except instead of a pair of gatling guns, it'd just be a single barrel with a 5 round magazine.

Of course, for all that trouble, a pistol would probably be more practical. I just like the idea of wrist weapons

The remote practicality of wrist mounted weapons is that it frees up your hand to carry another item or even another weapon.

or if you're disarmed.

In regards to the minigun mount... IIRC Viets back space is taken up by a jetpack.

Aaray Reem Ray Human Female Basilisk 24-Hair Color/Style: Light Brown/straight and in a ponytail -Facial Appearance: plain but naturally beautiful-Eye Color: Brown-Body Appearance: muscular and slender Personality: Bright, energetic, attractive, but tough as nails—Ray is definitely the stereotypical femando tomboy, though through the tough shell there is a sweet sensitive lady underneath the armor. Ray pretty much believes she can overcome any challenge and doesn't fear any being in the galaxy. Her humor is sarcastic and witty, and she isn't afraid to speak her mind. She can be very blunt at times. Like most true and honorable Mandalorians she values family, honor, and duty above everything else. She is one of the most loyal individuals. Ray has a passion for the hunt and mission. She loves adventure and seeing new worlds and cultures. She doesn't like to fool around and idiots tend to piss her off, like most femandos... you don't want to be around her when she's pissed--all mando hell breaks loose.Biography: Aaray was born and raised on Basilisk by her Mandalorian parents. Aaray was trained as a Mandalorian warrior. Her father taught her to be one of quickest fighters. She never let her gender hinder her (often outmatching males). She is a skilled marksmen and great gunslinger. A veteran of many Mandalorian strikes/battles, she served in the Mandalorian Cavalry for 8 years. After the war, she became a mercenary doing business for the Black Sun--mostly as an agent and assassin. She has entered several fight clubs and shooting matches in the Outer Rim, and has won many. She is the reigning gunslinger on Nar Shaddaa. Recently she took on bounty hunting, she has done work for the Sith, Republic, and several criminal and private organizations. She was engaged to a Journeyman Protector and famed Bounty Hunter—Aran Fett. Fett was also secretly working as an Imperial Agent doing the Intelligent's work in the Underworld. It was Fett's career with the Sith that caused Intelligence to look into Mandalorian recruits in which Aaray became another candidate. Aaray accepted the offer as soon as the Imperials contacted her, but to her disappointment, Intelligence Command separated the two because of their intimate relationship. Aran was posted as an Imperial asset on Coruscant. Ray's current whereabouts are unknown Mercenary/Bounty Huntress custom made Mandalorian Shock Trooper Armor/complete with an assortment of weapons and attachments--Maroon with Black and Gray markings--black Clan Reem Emblem with white mythosaur skull Mandalorian Ripper, Vibro-cutlass, vibro-whip heavy blaster pistols, gauntlets, power-glove/crushgaunts assortment of tools, gear, weapons


So... you're on Sith Payroll? Also if you check out the OP it's been well over 50 years since the Mandalorian Wars unless you were in one of the clans that decided to still be a little bit violent. The last war too, was about 50 years ago. The working for the Sith bit prior to Crusades secret appearance eight years ago can work as long as you realize they were just enclaves/cults and many of them were no more than Dark Jedi

Though I guess this is a CS you've ported over from something else by the looks off it :P.

Name: Choruk Reem
Species: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 34
Homeworld: Mandalore



Appearance: 2 meters tall, gold-brown hair, blue eyes, light skin, shriek-hawk tattoo on back, full armed sleeves

Personality: Cocky, sarcastic, rude, and known to shoot first and ask questions later--Choruk Reem is a highly motivated warrior, experienced pilot, and charming soldier of fortune. Devoting his time and energy into his Clan, family, and namadic culture, Reem is professional and honest man. Good in a fight, Reem works to get the job done often bounding headfirst into battle, quick on his feet, and reacting to danger, Reem is swift. He doesn't trust the Jedi and the Republic anymore than he could throw a Hutt. His flirtatious personality gets him in trouble, as well as his mouth when it comes to speaking his mind, though Reem is devoted to his wife and sacrifice anything for his family. He also had an affinity for drinking and gambling. He often boasted of his achievements he made and is a very competitive individual. He was the starter and finisher of many fights, not afraid to jump into fights he didn't start. Reem is quite the mechanic, having made countless modifications to the Wyrry's modified freighter, the Ryyk. His ability to think up inventive and often extremely unorthodox solutions to problems on the fly proved to be a constant source of frustration to all enemies he encountered (and often his friends). He is, however, a man with insecurities as well. He was overprotective of his ship, partner, and family.

-All over his travels Reem learned many languages as cultures he is fluent in over a dozen languages (being able to read, write, and speak) including Basic, Mando'a, Arkanian, Bocce, Bothese, Durese, Ithorian, Miralukese, Rodese, Selkath, Snivvian, Aqualish, Huttese, Ryl, Shyriiwook)

Weapon(s): Mandalorian Rippers, personalized wookiee bowcaster
Armor/Equipment/Clothing: custom Mandalorian armor, gauntlets, helmet, military boots, gloves

Flaws:
- Stubborn, non-conforming
- Lack of trust in Jedi, Republic, outsiders

- Does not take time to consider other perspectives
- Domineering; too focused on doing it "my way"
- Sarcastic

Bio: Choruk (meaning "stone" in Mando'a), grew up on Mandalore in the territory of clan Reem. He lived and was trained by his family in Keep Reem. His father was a Mandalorian martial instructor/ ex-gladiator and a veteran of the Mandalorian military. His mother was a skilled duelist and ex-jedi knight. His "uncle" Rawr (full name Rawrawaraak) was a wookiee warrior, and one of the most skilled agents in the galaxy, that owed a life debt to his father, who then trained the wookiee to become a Mandalorian and accepted the Mando way of life. Choruk was trained by his family and became a great warrior andhunter, but, like most Reems, he was a fighter. He bested all his mates in fighting matches. He took on anyone who dared to stand in front of him. He challenged any mando to sparring matches and fights. He loved a challenge and proved himself to be a great warrior. At 17 he traveled around the galaxy with his best friend Wyrry (short for Wyrryshrook) a young female wookiee who supported her father's life debt to the Reems by becoming a mando and befriending Choruk. They would engage in fight clubs and arenas across many worlds. Choruk also learned many different fighting styles at this time. Choruk and Wyrry would also hunt for sport in the dangerous jungles and forest on dozens of worlds. At 19, Choruk was given a Bes'uliik from his father and following his father's footsteps he served in Mandalore's defense forces. He was known for busting some of the most violent criminals on the planet. He became an officer at 23 years of age. Choruk fell in love with a stunningly attractive mandalorian female. Her name was Keena (fully Kihnaast). She was a tough, black haired mando and the best shot on Mandalore, debatably the galaxy. The two were quickly married. Reem bought some land and settled down in the forest of Mandalore. He continued to serve in the Defense. A year later, Reem was contacted by Wyrry who had become a famous Mando/wookiee bounty hunter and mercenary. She wanted Reem to help her track down a rouge jedi on Telos IV. Reem agreed but his wife argued against it. She wanted to come, but Choruk wouldn't allow his wife to be endangered after he found out she was pregnant. Choruk and Wyrry caught the jedi and split the reward, the two then became a well-known pair of mercenaries. The two mandos were an inseparable pair, traveling in Wyrry's modified light freighter, the Ryyk. As mercenaries for hire they did all sorts of tough work and odd jobs. Choruk captured the ex-Mandalorian and terrorist called Neran responsible for bombings on Coruscant and collected a fancy award from the Chancellor himself. Shortly after he broke into Republic Prison, Kiffex, Azurbani system to free a female Mandalorian, Vanna Ordo, and friend who needed assistance. Reem was granted pardon after providing the Jedi with intelligence on a cult of Sith, and with the help of Wyrry, Vanna, and Jedi allies defeated the cult led by a powerful trio of Sith Lords: Mortarious, Angron, and Balthnazaar.

After the fight with the Sith, Choruk spent time on Mandalore returning to military service so he could spend more time with his wife. He took commission as commander of a training regiment training of Mandalore's recruits in defense tactics. He reorganized the Mandalorion 6th Hunter Squad into an elite unit of warriors. He assisted in a joining Clans Reem and Fett build up strongholds on Mandalore, including the fortress city of Dral. Around this time he became Clan Leader of Reem. He used his authority to infiltrate the Jedi Temple, steal information, and break the criminal Neran from his cell. Reem restored Neran's honor and named him Dralshy'naak (Dral). Reem began orchestrating a plan to extend the Mandalorians power and influence in the galaxy, until the Republic tracked him down. A team of Jedi along with a Republic a officer confronted Choruk threatening to arrest him if he didn't accept an offer to which "he could not refuse." Although the Mandalorian and the Jedi had history they never saw eye to eye, and now they were going to arrest him for breaking into the Temple and stealing secret information, he had no choice but to accept the offer to aid the Republic.

They told him of they would pardon his crimes if he committed his skills and service to special group, called Taskforce Episilon 217. Choruk agreed, he had a family and he would be held responsible for clearing any "crimes" against the Jedi, as much as he hates to admit it, he always admired the peacekeepers of the Order, though never out loud anyway. Choruk had no idea what he was getting into.

Couple of problems, though you probably know more about Mandalore than me the military was disbanded after the Mandalorian wars by Revan and Malak, besalisks were all destroyed and they used most their Beskar to rebuild sets of armour IIRC. Not to mention the scattering of clans prevented any real cohesion in terms of military might, more likely a couple of clans banded together to defend the planet or is that what you meant?

In terms of the Task Force if the Jedi enlisted you it was only in the past eight years as before that they didn't even know about it.

Also while I applaud you for having 10 skills, 10 flaws. Most your skills help you with your equipment, or killing people. Whereas all your flaws stop you from making friends :P Bit of balance pl0x.

Revan commanded the Mandalorians to destroy their Basilisk mounts as part of the terms of their surrender. However, not all complied with Revan's demands, and numerous Basilisk droids continued to survive with Mandalorians who refused to give up their beast-like companions.

Same with the Mandalorian military it was "disbanded" in the large sense of its armys and navy... but Mandalore still had a small defense force. of course nothing close to it's might before. The clans on Mandalore for the most part protected themselves, controlling with own provinces.

Also the clans were scattered in the sense of in-fighting and power, Mandalore was divided among the clans and after Mandalore was killed the clan leaders went their seperate ways many even left Mandalore completely. Yes, some clans formed alliances to defend the planet and attempt to unify the people, some even fought each other, but there wasn't unity among clans. This is how factions and rifts started. Even the New Mandalorians who gave up the warrior culture completely after the end of the war.

Also about the Task Force, why does the years matter?

I wanna see some combat flaws. Because yes i understand the concept that mandalorians are less than friendly badasses who are unstoppable warriors, it's tiring. But we all know every warrior isn't a perfect soldier. When you get that done, i will look it over once more but it looks good so far.

I wanna see some combat flaws. Because yes i understand the concept that mandalorians are less than friendly badasses who are unstoppable warriors, it's tiring. But we all know every warrior isn't a perfect soldier. When you get that done, i will look it over once more but it looks good so far.


No offense is meant by this.

Choruk isn't unstopable idk what combat flaws you want to see, I even took a look at your character plus previous accepted characters (to include another mando) as a reference and almost all or them (at least all the ones I looked at) didn't even touch on combat flaws.

Obviously Choruk isn't going to win an Arm wrestling contest with a wookiee or out swim a Mon Calimari. He has no Force sensitivity, I said he was an expert marksman, skilled in unarmed combat, and is an skilled pilot as far as combat skills.

I was about to point out, Sep and Ena, that under the criteria you two just put down, I wouldn't have expected Kast to pass the inspection either..

Also, I usually feel that combat flaws are fairly unnecessary... if a character is Overpowered or too perfect, its because the person writing them wants it that way, Even if you impose restrictions on them, if they want to be OP, they'll be OP. I've seen many times when a person is told to remove some of their abilities- for example marksmanship, and they do so, but on the In Character, still act like their character is thoroughly skilled and competent in the field of marksmanship, only, instead of straight up bragging about how good they are, its more like... humble bragging... and 'modestly' implying that they are quite talented. Typically because immature people will be immature...

I'm of the belief that mature, competent writers will always find a way to keep their character balanced, because its more entertaining, fair, and overall much easier to relate to and empathize with.

I wasn't taking a crack at you btw, I'm just putting my 2 cents out in the air-er web. Why its only 2 cents as opposed to... ionno, some sort of monetary value that can actually be used to purchase something, I have no clue.
