PILOT
Name: Angus Brown
Age: 24
Height: 6'
Weight: 210
Background: Mercenary
Bio: Angus's Father was a tank gunner when the wars broke out and he couldn't understand what his mother meant when she told him he would see his father anymore one day. A list of men tried to take his fathers place after that but none of them would be his father, none of them were anything like his father. He was strong and brave while the pretenders acted sophisticated and charming. Angus would brood and never accept who ever tried to put themselves at his mother's side till the day she passed on quietly from illness. After that he was on his own, became a thug, and eventually joined a few of his gang in a mercenary corp. Whether it was luck that put him in that CFV or some heavenly intervention that gave him the short straw Angus was stuck with J9, the Frame with 'only one gun'.
At the time none of them had any canisters to use so J9's best close range feature was the free hand. But even without the canisters J9 and Angus were a lethal pairing and managed to make Ace before any of the others in his gang. It was during an ambush that Angus discovered the canisters when a J8 attacked them with it's spray and nearly melted their SMG. For the most part a J8 and J9 are very much the same machine, but the J8 lacks certain safety features put into the J9, such as a lock a loaded canister to keep it from being removed by other Model J Frames. It was exactly that lack of safety features that allowed Angus to gain the upper hand and start using the chem's in combat. Angus proved himself a worthy warrior and earned some reputation for ripping a canister right out of another Model J, eventually taking his name and reputation to work freelance in the Midwest where protection is always needed.
Description:
FRAME:
Name: Hjertz Model J9 - R055 "J9"
Description:
Weight Class: 6 Unit
Weapons Descriptions: J9 carries into battle at all times his heavy caliber SMG, mainly because it acts as his left hand but also because of its ability to also act a sprayer of chemical acid or fire via canisters attached to the gun. Acid is designed to melt the metal of a CVF and while it may not destroy the frame it can easily disable a weapon or expose an internal part. Flame canisters were originally designed as a way to clear bunkers and wipe out infantry on the ground, today it is more commonly used to distort gun barrels and cook pilots stuck in their cockpits.
Notes: When emptied a canister must be removed and replaced by another within J9's chest compartment before he can use the chem-spray function on his SMG again. The combination of either gun play or chem-spray make J9 a deadly foe in medium to close range and his free hand allows it to use melee weapons given the right circumstances. J9's SMG unfortunatly gets in the way of ANY chance at using long range equipment and is thus unable to return fire on frames too far out. During j9's canister reloads his chest compartment filled with volatile acids and pyrotechnics is exposed and one well aimed shot may spell disaster for this CVF and his Pilot.
Hjertz manufacturer built and sold CVF's to many during the wars and continued to sell their stock until their factories shut down. Hjertz would develop 5 Models for their CVFs: Model H "The Sniper", Model K "The Warrior", Model A "The Cannon", Model J "The Hunter", and lastly Model P "The Tank". Hjertz Model J's were designed with the intent of using CVF like squads of Infantry, fighting together as a group and being versatile for many situations and terrain. Later models like the J8, J9, J10 scraped the needing a team to be effective and rather make them super soldiers within their range.
