Liz Brooks

I did my best- isn't that what counts?

Name: Elizabeth 'Liz' Nicole Brooks
Age: 23
Appearance:

Fairly timid, normal-appearing girl in her early 20s. Typically wears casual clothes such as sweatshirts, sweaters, and light jackets, with either jeans or sweatpants, depending on the situation.
Height: 5'6.5" (169 cm)
Weight: 104 lbs (47 kg)
Likes: Caffè mocha, earl grey tea, cold & cloudy days, warm sweaters, understanding people, 80s/90s pop culture (Star Wars, FRIENDS, Animaniacs)
Dislikes: Liars, alcohol, smoking, overly loud things like metal and sports cars
Zodiac Sign: Cancer (June 30, Chariot Tarot)
Special Talent: Although she never really put too much faith in herself or got a high level of praise, Liz is a great cook- especially when it comes to noodles. She herself doesn't know why in particular, but hey, whatever works..
Profession: Unemployed at the moment
Bio: Liz grew up in Madrid, Iowa, a small town in the Midwest with a high school football team as the local pride. The daughter of a policeman and a librarian, she grew up looking up to her elder brother, who aspired to one day become the next Steve Jobs or Bill Gates. Liz didn't really know much about computers or business, but what she did pick up is that she wanted to see more than a sleepy, tiny town every morning. After graduating from a home economics class in a local community college, she moved out to Sol City to meet her brother- only to find that he had moved to Japan. With nowhere to stay, no job, and not much money, Liz is hoping to get her act straight soon.
Personality: Honest and straightforward, Liz prefers to do things neatly and clearly, without lies or complication, which she strongly dislikes. She is rather timid at first, but easily opens up to anyone who proves to be kind and trustworthy. She tends to be more of an introvert, although she is not afraid to speak her mind, when necessary.

a-ha - Take On Me

Hiroya Mochizuki

Minimum effort, maximum result.
Name: Hiroya 'Black Lightning' Mochizuki (望月広也「黒い稲妻」) (黒田大輝)
Age: 29
Nationality: Japanese (Shinjuku, Tokyo)
Appearance:

Biography: Born and raised on the streets of Shinjuku, Hiroya learned that the world wasn't fair early on. Strapped for money to support himself as a young adult, and his younger sister Miyuki's school tuition, he was caught in a desperate situation, culminating in low-life jobs for the Inagawa Group, one of Japan's largest Yakuza gangs. Eventually, a confrontation with a bosozoku gang led to them kidnapping his sister. Enraged, Hiroya stole an MP7 and HK417 from the Inagawa stronghold, sneaking into the bosozoku base and killing the gangsters who had held Miyuki hostage. Rather than offer a stern reprimand, his superiors saw his potential, promoting him to a clandestine assassin's role. After some years of performing covert operations for Inagawa, Hiroya (codenamed 'Black Lightning', or '黒い稲妻') was noticed by XCOM's recruitment divison. Come 2015, an alien attack pod had landed in Tokyo, with Miyuki presumed dead. Not soon after, an XCOM mole, serving as an Inagawa director, ordered Hiroya to perform a counter-assault on Thin Men, posing as Yakuza members assassinating Prime Minister Abe in Tokyo, and linking up with the remaining alien elements. The alien spies were easily outmatched by the vengeant Hiroya, who knew the streets like the back of his hand and wished to avenge his fallen sister. With minimal time wasted or public notified, the Thin Men fell one-by-one, and in moments, Hiroya had done the job, as usual. Before he could tell his superior of his most recent victims' odd blood and patterns, he had been spilled the beans: the Council liked his audition.
Base of Operations: Asia
Squad:
Class: Scout
Rank: Squaddie
Personality: While Hiroya is able to take orders and cooperate if necessary, he is very much a 'lone wolf'- give him an objective, directions, and supplies, and he can produce an effective result all on his own. Still struck by grief over the apparent loss of his sister, he tends not to open up about his past, especially given his most recent occupation.
Other: Theme
Strengths: Stealth, recon, quick & short encounters
Weaknesses: Drawn-out battle, being flanked
Psionic-Potential: Y
Mech Soldier Candidate: N

@Ookawa
Good job, but I have a couple points of info.

• While it does fit the character, I am a bit taken aback by the height.
• Can't find a reliable reading for your kanji, but you can use '瀬尾' for Seo

@Ookawa
It all depends on whether other characters are willing to join the team too. If it's something actually present in terms of attendance Sola and I will add it to the list for Club Day _{woo, spoiler alert}

Silently judging his classmates and taking their names, Ryunosuke watched intently behind his 'dead fish eyes'. Although it was almost a given to do such a thing for him, he could hardly explain it with words. Or, rather, he would refuse to admit such a reason- that being wariness- against a possible 'threat'. While there wasn't any real threat to the normal person, he saw anyone willing to annoy or needlessly interact with him as a threat that needed to be left be, even more so than his normal distance from others. As for what caused such a mindset, he did not care to even think about that.


Kurihara-sensei. Seen her around, can't make an impression yet.
Oshiro Hiroshi. If she leaves me alone, I'll leave her alone.
Genjo Arata. Nearly seventeen, good for him...
America One-no, Jonathan Harper, nudging America Two, rather, Thomas, on. Decent Japanese, but a bit formal. I guess that's what they teach.
Saito Ryuji. I wonder if he's trying to be like Sasuke, or Jotaro. Try a little less hard.
Well, damn. Looks like it's my turn.

Scanning the room, Ryunosuke realized in horror that the others stared back. Be it fate or groupthink, he was expected by 'society' to go up, and it wasn't like he could fight back. Despite his disdain for the situation at hand, Ryunosuke still wasn't keen on having a strong tatemae- 'social face': as much as others could try to please others or smile unconvincingly, he would never feel a need to bend to another person's will. But regardless of how much he wanted to stand up or not, again, did he really have a choice?

Readjusting his glasses with his right hand, and using his left to help him stand up by pushing off the desk, he did it. Looking around for a moment to see if anyone had awkwardly gone up at the same time as him, he was silently relieved to be alone. Finally, he began.
"Ahem. Suzuki Ryunosuke. Don't bother me and I'll do the same."
He sat down, thinking of anything but how good of a job he did.
