@HowlsOfWinter ..... Your "Sloppy" and "low inspiration" post still blows one of my regular posts out of the water. And especially due to the fact you do this all on a phone its crazy! I totally understand the school aspect and I don't think it will be a major problem as I see this slowing down a bit now that summer is coming to an end. Thank you for sticking with it!

Arm Mounted Weapon Tether - An Electrical jack on Thane's right wrist that can connect to his rifle interfacing with his Ocular Implant allowing it to access a scope like camera mounted on the gun's barrel.

Tactical Knife - Nothing fancy just a knife Thane keeps in case of close range combat

Bio:

As a young boy Thane was literally groomed to become part of the Gracian military with both of his parents serving in some form of the armed forces and undergoing genetic enhancement in an attempt to produce the perfect soldier as an offspring. And the product of these enhancements was no failure. Even at a young age it was clear that Thane was faster and stronger than the other children his age. And while most others were sent to grade school Thane was off to the Military Academy.

It was at the academy that Thane really grew to appreciate his enhancements as they put him at the top of his classes. Thane was stronger, faster, smarter, and more agile than any of the other cadets and it made him a target for the other classmates. But still Thane pushed on ending up graduating at the top of his class and was selected to join a special forces division of the Gracian Military "The Black Blades".

Thane's boot camp for the Black Blades was unlike anything he had seen at the academy and he was pushed to his limits every day. It was here where his proficiency with a rifle started to show. It seemed that his reaction times and calculating skills went beyond even his enhanced abilities and it was set so that he would become the "perfect" marksman. But this was not an easy path, it was on his first field operation with the Black Blades that Thane lost his right eye and the first time he had to fight to survive.

Tasked with assassinating a Imperial Admiral, Thane thought he had the easy job of just taking the shot. But things never go as planned the glint of his scope was spotted by a counter sniper who quickly sent a bullet down Thane's scope. Luckily the Scope itself deflected the bullet, but the scope itself basically exploded and lodged glass shards into Thane's eye. One slip up and the mission was aborted the other Blades disappeared leaving Thane alone behind enemy lines and injured. After Two weeks of running, avoiding his enemies, and nearly starving to death Thane finally made it to safety and was picked up by the Black Blades, but by that time it was to late his eye had become infected and would have to be removed.

This was the first time Thane would come to alter his body. He decided to take on a cybernetic eye implant so he wouldn't have to use a scope and risk this kind of failure again. He even went as far as to add a tether line on his arm so he could interface with his rifle better. By the time of his next "failure" Thane spent 276 years with the Black Blades taking on vital missions to "End the War" and in this time there were many times when Thane would be left to survive on his own after a mission as it seemed the Black Blades never really had an exit strategy for their troops.

Thane's second failure was finding out the truth. After a sting of assassination missions against targets that seemed to be advocating for peace Thane decided to do a little investigating of his own and used his time abandoned by the blade find the truth. After a few hints and tracking down the Political Rival Thane saw it, An Imperial Politician in communication with his commanding officer in the Blades. The two spoke for a bit on a well done operation and how the will of a "Bal Collective" had been done. Having a piece of information he could use Thane retreated needing to learn more of this Bal Collective.

Thane would spend his free time in the next three years researching into this Bal Collective but never found much. Although he was able to tie them to assassinations and accidents on both sides of the war that would end up killing or incapacitating those who seemed to be on the path for peace. But the day came when apparently Thane had not been careful enough in covering his tracks while researching and the Bal Collective found out about him. While on route to a mission Thane's squad turned on him attacking him mid flight. Thane's superior strength and ability allowed him to come out the victor, but there was a contingency. An Explosion from within took down his transport it landing somewhere in the Middlelands and gravely injured Thane.

Luck smiled on Thane that day as some human farmers pulled him from the transports wreckage and nursed him back to health. When Thane came to he thanked his rescuers and quietly made his way back to Gracian territory. Upon his return it seemed that Thane had been Blacklisted from most of his contacts, but some old friends owed him a few favors and Thane was able to get himself a cybernetic arm to replace the one he lost in the crash. He also learned that all records of Thane had been erased from the Gracian records. Knowing this wasn't a good sign Thane left the Gracian lands disconnecting himself from the grid to prevent him from being tracked and returning to the Middlelands to plan out his next action.

Thane would spend the next 50 years laying low in the Middlelands acting as a farmer and a bit of hired muscle to keep pirates away. It was after he was sure that the Bal Collective would assume his death that Thane decided to return to civilized life. Luckily the 50 years he had spent as a farmer had tanned Thane's skin and his prosthetics were easy enough to hide allowing Thane to blend in with most of the Empire's culture. Needing a steady source of income to replace his failing body parts Thane began work as a hired gun within the Empire starting to make a name for himself. For the next 200 Years Thane would hide himself making new aliases, never taking off whatever stupid mask he downed for that name and ended up taking 20 different aliases over the span.

Finally 18 years ago Thane ran into Murdoch a kid with a good head on his shoulders and even let Gracian's into his group. So Thane took a chance deciding he might of found a place to settle for a bit he handed over his full "Resume" and opted for a position among the crew. Not being an idiot and looking a gift horse in the mouth Murdoch accepted the proposal and Thane has been a member of the crew since. Still pulling his weight even at his old age.

Personality:

An old soldier at heart. Thane is very rough and has a bit of a dark sense of humor. He isn't afraid to speak his mind and wont sugar coat his words. That said he is loyal to his companions refusing to see one of his own left behind as he once was. Full of old war stories Thane is always willing to spin a tale in his free time.

Relationships: (Once everyone completes their character sheets, share a few words about how your character feels about each of the other major characters.)

Tales of the Crimson Legion - Galaxy at War

Silas had gathered the crew in the briefing room to go over the last bits and details of the mission before they went away. And of course before the briefing could even start Gerad posed his question. Silas gave a sigh and grinned. "Now if things actually go our way and by some miracle we don't end up having to shoot our way out of that ship, I have zero qualms on snagging some of that fine military grade equipment. But that's probably not how its going to go." he continued while pulling up a holo of the derelict Balrog. "So as everyone can see the ship has no power and probably no life support. That means no oxygen or gravity once we get inside. That being said our first job will be to head to the generators and start up auxiliary power." Silas said while pointing at the holo and it spun zooming in and highlighting a path from the hanger to the generators. "After that's done hopefully life support will kick back in and we can make our way to the command bridge, because there has to be some sort of log on what the secret project the Balrog was working on there. But that is where things will probably go bad. Once we turn on the Aux Power the ship will start showing up on sensors around the sector drawing this nice little war strait to us." He continued as the holo projected the route to the bridge. "Gerad, you and me will work on combing through the ships logs for a clue while Cyne, Macklyn, and Gaz give us cover whoever decides to board the ship. Once we find out what the ship is hiding we then move to secure it. After that depending on the resistance we might stop by the armory and pick up some be goodies, then we get off the ship make our way back here and hopefully jump out of the system before getting blown to bits." Silas wrapped up his plan. Knowing the last bit was probably going to fall to improvisation once they got in the field but it was nice having a little baseline of a plan to go off of. "Now saying as we are expecting to head into an environment where normal weapons won't work I'll open up the armory for a bit. If you need something that will work in Zero-G pick up something before we leave. Now if there aren't any questions you are all dismissed everyone be ready to leave in ten minutes, we are already working against the clock." he said ending the briefing and as the others filed out to prepare Sven came up beside Silas, "Noticed you didn't have me doing anything in your plans there. You know I could probably find those files faster than you and the monkey." Sven said in a kinda hurt tone. "Yeah, but someone has got to stay on the transport keeping it ready to leave at a moments notice, also I trust the ships targeting computer more than yours at least I was able to program us all as friendlies into the ship's system." Silas shot back while he made his way to the armory getting himself his Carbine and a pair of plasma pistols leaving Death's Grasp in its holster for this run. After grabbing his weapons Silas would make his way back to his quarters to change into his combat suit and ready himself for the mission.

The ten minutes would go by and the team would ready themselves before it was time to head out. Sven would lead the way piloting the Fang with Macklyn and his Lancer close behind. "Watch yourself kid, asteroid fields are kinda tricky you can't just follow my trail if you do you might end up flat against a rock." the old pilot said over the comms, he hadn't had very much of a chance to fly with Macklyn before this and was kinda worried about the rookie going threw the belt. Meanwhile Silas sat in the back of the Fang with the rest. "Alright so bets on what the secret on the ship is?" Silas asked trying to make the journey pass a little faster. "I'm going to say that the SSA stole alien tech and it pissed them off, they came crippled the ship and left it for dead. Hell probably even took the tech back. But our bounty is for the ship itself anything it is caring is a bonus." he speculated not having any idea what happened to the ship.

@Lyla it's no worries take your time. Life happens and will always take precedence over the game

There gave Sven his relationships, and updated Silas' to a better format type (totally not stolen from Sector)

Tales of the Crimson Legion - Galaxy at War (Casual Galactic Mercenaries) - Still accepting members of the crew

<The Hook>

It has been thousands of years after man fist set out onto space and started its colonization of space. Mankind soon colonized the entirety of the Sol system and soon reformed itself under the SSA (Sol System Alliance). And when mankind reached outside its home system it wasn't long before they made contact with extra terrestrial life and as is mankind's way that soon lead to war. The First Contact War ended after 50 years with signing a treaty to avoid either side from being annihilated, and with the SSA weakened by war and unable to retaliate several of the outlying colonies broke away to govern themselves. And thus the UGC (United Galactic Conference) to establish communication and peace between all the factions. Time passed and humanity continued to expand, new alien races were discovered and brought into the UGC and the galaxy seemed to be at a time of piece.

But recently things have been changing, the UGC is little more than a puppet to be controlled by the SSA and moves to support their goals. This has caused a great amount of tension among the factions as the SSA asserted its control over weaker factions. And just a week ago the Kingdom of Tallos accompanied by many of the Anti-SSA factions dropped out of the UGC claiming it had become corrupt and unfair. And now the two sides sit and wait preparing for war.

<Who are We?>

We are the Crimson Legion. A Mercenary group who has yet to choose a side in the upcoming war. In fact staying out of the war as much as possible. The legion is currently taking jobs from both sides for simple things like guarding a supply shipment through Pirate territory or killing off Gang leaders to stabilize the local government. The kind of jobs the Military should handle, but don't have the time to deal with while preparing for war.

<What I Need>

Just a few more players before we start. Desperately in need of a medic of some sort but will take a few more regardless of battle role (other than non-combatants)

Thanks for your time
