@Foster Sure, but what would she pay with? And cats would make the best contraband.

The Three Kings (High Casual)

Nah. He empathizes with them, having been a stray aswell. He wouldn't move them regardless as he knows firsthand how hard is to sleep well being a stray.

@AtomicNut

True, true. Still wanna see cat ears somewhere though....

The Three Kings (High Casual)

Stray kittens sounds adorable...
Those freeloaders in his bed wearing car ears so he'd be less inclined to move in the morning?

:/ a lot of effort, a few scrapped ideas, and more time than I care to count: this is the fruit of my labor

Faction: NARVA

Appearance:
Red eyes, white hair and pale complexion.
5'0" at ???lbs

Clothing:
When incognito or otherwise she is often seen wearing oversized pants and hooded sweatshirt.
Underneath this, however, is a jumpsuit designed for high-mobility activities. The suit is black, in contrast with her pale face and crimson eyes, and offers lightly padded joints that stretch even more lightly onto her arms and legs. Her torso is padded both front and back with similar padding but wrapped with a thin layer of Kevlar, knife resistant mesh.

Personality:
Minerva's inability to speak and her brain damage from testing often make it difficult for her to develop new social relationships. Also due to her brain damage, she cannot consciously recall her past prior to waking up during the escape. She is used to operating alone, teamwork being delicate and difficult with her muteness. She communicates through facial expressions and general hand gestures, occasionally whistling to catch attention or show affection.

Weapons:
10mm SQ-05 "Smart" Pistol
Optional suppressor latched to right side of barrel.
Tactical flashlight underbarrel built in, extending from trigger guard.
Left side I the barrel is a 'nerve center' that identifies acquired targets down range and will 'jerk' the operator's aim to meet targets. Unable to compensate completely unless SQ-05-2 "Smart" Bullets are loaded. Standard 10mm amunition compatible.
"Smart" bullets seek out humanoid targets and aim for vital hits (head, heart, etc.), normally equipped for avoiding certain IFF tags in friendly humanoids, often implanted in military troops and authorized SWAT teams.

SQ-04 "Long Lance" .308 sniper rifle
Bipod underbarrel. Range and trajectory in HUD of the scope, as well as estimated outline of targets.
Optional suppressor attachment.

Equipment:
Minerva carries nothing more than a single spare set of ammunition for her firearms and only one magazine of SQ-05-2 "Smart" Bullets on her person at any time. She relies on NARVA's goodwill and her private stashed supplies to keep her fed and watered and supply her with further ammunition. Due to this system she has become very thrifty with her ammunition and very accurate.

Bio:
Minerva can recall nothing of her life before waking up in the laboratory during the escape. While escorting younger, mostly unmodified girls to one of the narrowing, if not disappearing, escape routes she fended off a single special forces combatant. The man called out "Minerva spotted!" As he moved to intercept her little batch of ducklings. She took to the name almost as well as he took to her new pistol he so generously donated to her cause.
As the majority of girls spread into the slums of what hiding places they could find, Minerva began to wage a guerilla war against search parties, making contact in odd places so as to throw their bulk searches behind them off the trails of other girls.
Since the formation of NARVA, she has taken back to the inner slums, becoming the exemplary reason why night guards are not allowed to attend the porcelain throne all by their lonesome.
Her prefered targets are the most patient ones, snipers. She acquired her rifle from a specific sniper who had her glued to the walls of an under construction building for 3 strait hours before forgetting to check the sky bridge between their buildings.

Oh good gracious deity of choice, this is no where near complete and I most likely forgot a thing or five, feel free to point things out that might not make sense.

Also, would multiple characters be acceptable or would it be too much
(T-T) please tell me

@converge

I've spent the last day expanding on the character I have in mind.
I've reached the word limit on the notepad I've been using :(

Edit: Hell, I even started a new notepad from the view of a Doctor's report on her enhancement progress! WHY AM I SO OBSESSED WITH THIS!

The Three Kings (High Casual)

@vietmyke

Awwww, I had that kind of idea too.... oh well, I'll see what else I ended up with on the drawing board, no problem.

The Three Kings (High Casual)

Fascinating idea, where do I sign up?

Mecha Carta Institute

Mecha Carta Institute

The Wolf growled and jumped slightly when Evan evidently read John's mind, then looked to John himself.

John's expression darkend sourly. He recalled his Father's blue eyes and Mother's green looking back at him. He recalled his cousin playfully teasing him. And Susana's smile...

No. There were other reasons to remember family names and titles besides petty, societal worth.

He again re-envisioned the flames.

"I... will always... look back..." John stated through gritted teeth.

"Thank you, Ms. Starr," John said after a small silence, then he turned and walked back to the entryway.

Mecha Carta Institute

John silently let out a breath he didn't know he'd been holding. Harv mentioned the Starrs came from a small town, small family. He couldn't hold everyone to his standard on familial knowledge, after all.

"Thank you, but it never hurts to hope," John said, barley managing a smile to show his sincerity,"If you do ever hear of an 'M. Starr', I might still be very interested in making their..." He searched for words. "Aquaintance."

This certainly put a damper on his mood. No known engineer to at least repair the buffer meant that he could never truly risk moderate damage to the CX-66. Hell, if he stressed it too much it may as well implode on him as it was, he hadn't nailed down the exact power coefficient for mass transfer.

John felt the hopes he had tried not to hold crash on him reguardless. This mood change provoked his spirit, the Lone Grey Wolf, to present. It manifested next to him, its ears at perfect scratching height, and John began to do so absentmindedly.The Wolf looked up at Evangeline and tilted its head slightly.
