Before I get started, a military man's gotta have his team. If I may have NPCs.
25 | Female | Phade | Mercenary
Description: Born and raised on the Nocturnian streets, Anna was originally from one of the more middle-class districts. However, early troubles with the Mafias displaced her and her family, leaving them to survive in a pooerer part kf the city. Growing into her own, Anna turned to petty crimes of theft and con-artistry to make ends meet. Eventually, her Gyft manifested; this only escalated her criminal activity. Soon thereafter she would add murder to her rapp sheet, and the thirst for action set deep roots. With her Gyft gaining her a degree of fame within the city, she turned attention to hiring herself out to police and mafias alike for short term contracts.
Gyft:
28 | Female | Sneak/Del Guarde
Description: Formerly employed by the US Navy, and later an operative for the CIA. Her CIA tenure revealed her aptitude for stealth, wherein she excelled in espionage and reconsisance. Sylvia has a prior working relation with Sergeant T. Eren Glyde-Savion, having briefed him regarding multiple missions and operations, and cooperated in joint operations throughout their careers. She was thoroughly involved in the investigation into the Incident that killed Glyde's former team; Glyde remains unaware of this fact, and that Sylvia is privvy to the truth of what transpired. The higher ups selected Sylvia to join Del Guarde in part to monitor the Staff Sergeant's actions; stated reasoning credits the pair's history of proven results when cooperating.
Gyft: Cloaking Field.
29 | Male | Title/Alliance
Description: An ex-military man, formerly of the Marine Corps. He was honorably discharged following an incident that resulted in the loss of his right hand. He was later utilized as a test subject for experimental robotic prosthetics, through which his hand was replaced with a fully-function polymer appendage. Following the success of the surgery, he was offered a return to duty to better test the efficiency of the new technology in practical situations. It was hardly a fair offer, as he would be stripped of the new hand if he refused. He was assigned to the initial infiltration by Del Guarde alongside Staff Sergeant Glyde-Savion and Agent Sylvia Madore, among at least two others. As with his two partners, Dar has since manifested a Gyft, and has gained quick competence with it.

Anna D'Rochelle
25 | Female | Phade | Mercenary

With her Gyft gaining her a degree of fame within the city, she turned attention to hiring herself out to police and mafias alike for short term contracts.
Gyft:
- Phasing. Can alter her body and anything in contact with it (clothing, weapons, etc.) such that she can pass through physical matter. With this she can move through walls, and evade physical harm from conventional weapons. She can extend this effect to others so long as she maintains comtact with them. Can be disrupted by electricity, causing Anna to return to her more corporeal state.
- Teleportation. Can instantaneously move through space. Limited to short ranges within her line of sight; the exception is for places that she is familiar enough with to properly visualize, such as her home and frequent places of visitation. Long-distance teleportation causes physical strain and fatigue if overdone.
Special Operative Sylvia Madore

Sylvia can create a small area of effect around herself that renders her invisible and muffles routine sounds such as footsteps.

Darian can generate protective energy shields. These can range from simple walls to full spheres typically measuring up to ten feet in diameter. They are robustly solid, enough so to block bullets an small artillery fire, though repeated bombardment can compromise this integrity; energy projection can also be used to break through them. They are difficult to maintain for extend time frames. Dar can expand his area of effect, though this comes at higher costs and can't be sustained as long.
