The Odyssey Expedition (Sci-fi/Futuristic RP)

Janos gave Cadence a polite little nod before picking up the metal case again and briskly making his way to the shuttle bay. The sight that greeted the man was rather... out of the ordinary. A woman was more or less hugging what he could only assume to be a weapons case. Again he brushed his hair back with his fingers and shook his head while examining his surroundings. He deduced that the Santerian was the... Yamesh fellow he was looking for.

Though Janos had arrived in time to hear the comment about humans being useful for manual labor, still he chose to keep quiet for now and concentrate on making sure his gear had arrived. After a brief examination the explosives expert had procured the rest of his combat gear - a rather heavy looking suit that by first glance resembled an old bomb defusal suit, but only much heavier and better armored. It looked like something he'd be needing help getting in to.

Aaaaand I have posted

The Odyssey Expedition (Sci-fi/Futuristic RP)

Being late was something Janos did not have a habit of doing - though this time he indeed was late. The man arrived to the ship and exchanged a few words with the soldiers standing guard before making his way inside. He adjusted his messy hair a bit and took a better hold of the large metal case he was lugging around.

Janos managed to get to the agreed upon meeting place just when the actual meeting had came to an end. With a little mumbled "Damn it..." the explosives expert forced a little smirk to his lips and approached the person he assumed to be in charge. He did not bother with a salute, or even standing in attention as he stepped in front of Echo. "You must be the boss 'round here - Summers, right? The name be Kalpa - Janos Kalpa - though if that's too difficult to pronounce you can just call me Tsar like the guys back home used to." His tone was polite, but the rather odd accent and drawling way of speaking gave it a bit of a strange edge. "M guessin' I'm late - sorry about that."

Janos paused for a moment to place the large case on the floor and the smirk of his widened a bit in to something that could be considered either a smile or a manic grin. "Guess you already read all them reports, but guess I'll still inform you that I'm the best damn explosives expert humanity has to offer." He spread his hands slightly - serously, if he'd let out a maniacal giggle you could think he's a super villain or something.

The Odyssey Expedition (Sci-fi/Futuristic RP)

Name: Janos 'Tsar' Kalpa
Age: 34
Weight: 220 lb's (100 Kg)
Height: 6'8 (210 cm)
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Class: Gunnery Chief, Explosives expert specialization

Appearance: Janos' short brown hair seems rather unkempt even in the best of conditions. Some slight balding can be noticed on the temples and he has a very prominent widow's peak. His eyes are bright green in color and there is a small scar just under his left eye. He has quite high cheekbones and a slightly jutting jaw with noticeable underbite.

His left arm has some still visible burns here and there - most likely from one of his very rare botches with explosives.

While off duty Janos always seems to wear the exact same white t-shirt and the same black jeans - though sometimes he does add an old fashioned pilot jacket to the mix.

Personality: Quite a joker and a charmer. Janos likes to act like a sort of a mad bomber - mostly to throw people off balance. When he really puts his mind on something he'll always do his best to accomplish the task at than - be it explosives related or not.

Biography: Janos spent his early years in relative peace gaining a quite an assortment of skills - mostly chemistry and other such. He joined the military at the age of 18 and was soon noted to be quite gifted in 'enhancing' explosives - or jury rigging them from all sorts of components he happened to have on hand at the moment. His unorthodox and at most times rather dangerous - though admittedly always working and at least in his own hands safe - little projects soon got both the ire and admiration of his superiors. The ire came in the form of Janos being relieved of military duty, however the admiration on the other hand meant that he was transferred to S.E.U where his work could serve a greater purpose and hopefully put less people in danger.

Weapons:
Colt 1911 with a blackened finish and stylized lion emblems on the handle plates, it has an extended magazine and slightly shortened barrel.

Modified M32 Multiple Grenade Launcher - the weapon has been modified to hold 9 grenades at a time, it has an added range calculating sight and has been stripped of excess components to make it as light as possible.

Incendiary grendades
Frag grenades
Armor piercing grenades for the MGL (Self improved ammo)

D6 - A rather unnervingly efficient derivative from the common C4 plastic explosive that Janos has in his usual manner improved. He has not given away the full list of ingredients, but those who have seen a pound of D6 go off - and know their explosives - can at least attest that it has some added phosphorus and magnesium in it. Due to the fact that lobbing the stuff around can be at times rather dangerous - the chemical mix can have a nasty side effect in certain conditions - Janos only prepares and carries the stuff with him if there is enough intel to warrant seriously blowing something up.

Janos is also able to use the D6 - admittedly with some minor modification to the formula - as the explosive agent of the grenades he launches from his MGL. Admittedly he dislikes using the modified compound due to it becoming unstable and rather dangerous - for instance even dropping a grenade with the modified D6 can cause an explosion.

Awesome! So, I should probably move my CS to the characters tab, right? ^^

I hope there is room for one more ^^

Treasure & Treachery

The pale elf watched Calvin work and smiled faintly as she silently noted that at least the young man was good when it came to butcher work. As she was handed the cuts of meat Cyriana went to prepare the campfire again and soon the crackling of wood and warmth of fire was back.

The dark haired woman tilted her head at Calvin's question and flashed a little smile. "I'm not quite sure really - there are so many things in the bag..." Cyriana kept her eyes on the meat that was coming up nicely, but made a quick glance towards Straw. "Straw, would you be so kind and bring my bag over here?"

Treasure & Treachery

"I'd say this'll last for more than just a day." Cyriana smiled slightly and rolled her eye while glancing at Straw. "I sincerely doubt the lord will miss one little deer." She turned her attention to Calvin and grinned. "I assume you have a knife with which we can skin and cut the catch of the day." The frail elf seemed quite proud of the results of her little hunting trip. "If nothing else at least we will be well fed for a few days."

Treasure & Treachery

Jeezh...

Responding with hostility towards the GM over a very simple and polite question?

Really?
