I hear its amazing when the famous purple stuffed worm in flap-jaw space with the tuning fork does a raw blink on Hari Kiri Rock. I need scissors! 61!
I haven't the foggiest idea of what you people are talking about.
Kyle Kruger sat along one of the walls forming the cramped belly of the armored transport, amidst six of his men. Despite their airborne origins, they hadn't been inside of an aircraft for quite a while now. Wasteful of fuel and time, he was told, when operating within the borders of the US. Instead, today's vehicle was an M7 Schwarzkopf, a bit of a rust bucket by the standards of the day, but it suited them fine. Trailing behind them was another M7 Schwarzkopf with seven other men, and behind it, a similar vehicle. Kyle grinned to himself as he thought about it. Out here, he was the only one that knew its purpose, and he loved frustrating his men with its mystery. With no soldiers riding it, it wasn't an ordinary M7 Schwarzkopf, that much was clear. When he brought it up, he merely referred to it as "the special one." All they knew was that it wouldn't be going as close to the operation area as they would be, but would be called in during a later phase of the mission.

Intelligence wasn't able to squeeze out any further information about the enemy. Disposition, levels of Hexes involved... hell, they didn't even know if they were Hexes at all. It could be some unaffiliated terrorists, who have seized up the opportunity presented by the chaos made by the breakout in progress. Medburn, population 135 or so. Probably nowhere near that high anymore, he grimly noted during the briefing. "One less mutie means ten - maybe even hundreds - less of our own dead." he thought to himself. He shook his head, reflecting on the absurdity of the situation. How the fuck had the police bungled so hard that an entire town was able to be seized, hostages and all?

National Guard had been deployed, but their role was a delaying, diversionary one. They had established cordons choking all roads leading in and out of the town, and were attempting to contact the rebels under the pretense of negotiation. In reality, they were just buying time for Kyle and his men. Apparently it was working well, and the rebels and National Guard were presently staring each other down at the southern edge of the town, while bullhorns crackled and barked their exchange. If they were indeed concentrated down there, it would make things a hell of a lot easier for the Storm Hounds, who were closing in from the north through the woods.

The vehicle suddenly halted. The ramp to the rear of the vehicle fell, and the soldiers took it as their cue. Kyle's squad met up with their counterpart team from the other Schwarzkopf, and they began their methodical approach as they stalked through the thick woods enveloping the town of Medburn.
Name: Kyle Kruger
Age: 27
Gender: Male

Race: Human

Status: Field operations leader of "Storm Hound", a military task force formed from paratroopers of the 101st Airborne Division to perform counter-insurgency warfare. Storm Hound and counterpart units represent an escalation of the growing war against Hexes, the military growing frustrated with the inability of the police to adequately deal with the threat, as well as repeated incursions against their installations.

Bio: Kyle Kruger has served in numerous wars prior to his latest deployment back home and against the Hex menace. Wracked by economic decline, world hunger, and a fuel crisis, the world saw numerous nations allied to the US fall into civil war, societal collapse and general disarray. In response, US military personnel subsequently found themselves being shuffled from one destination to the next, year after year, to try and combat this chaos.

While these wars proved even more costly and futile than their antecedents a century in the past, they proved influential for Kyle Kruger's later work. Through the course of his service, he compiled his observations and theorizations into a primer on the nature of unconventional warfare and combating guerrilla tactics. Eager to put his doctrine into practice against the new threat blossoming within his very nation, the emergence of the Hexes, he appealed for the creation of a new unit to deal with it. These plans manifested in Storm Hound, formed from around 50 other paratroopers from his battalion.

As an individual, Kyle Kruger has garnered something of a reputation for his exuberant eccentricity, earning him the moniker of "Smiles". His excitability is held to be unusual, and those close enough to him to be aware of them describe his views as "questionable." Despite efforts to whitewash his image, there remain many hard to squash rumors of past scandals and controversies he has been involved with. Regardless of these problems, he has proven himself to be a reliable and dedicated soldier.

Powers/Abilities:
- Power armor operation: Like all soldiers in his unit, Kyle Kruger is outfitted with an M62A2 "Petraeus" armored exoskeleton. While derided before the emergence of the Hexes as being prohibitively expensive and unsuited to the nature of America's latest wars, these suits are now looked upon favorably as a way to increase the survivability of ordinary humans when going toe to toe with the likes of these super beings. However, numbers are still required to deal with Hexes reliably, even with this advantage. The M62A2 "Petraeus" system provides superior mobility, protection, and weight carrying capacity to its user. One particular modification to the system for its service in the Storm Hounds, as per Kyle Kruger's personal request, is a rebreather piece that is used to administer various combat stimulants in a vapor form to the user.

- Proven in combat: As a veteran of several conflicts, he has more than a bit of an idea of what he's doing. Generally proficient at fighting.

- Tactician: A capable leader of his men, among whom he has instilled respect through his consistent ability to get results.



Ok, good! Thank you. I'll get on that now.
Howdy. I'm interested. Here is my character sheet so far.
