Dangerous Game, Recruitment Thread Options

[Abschalten]

The whole dodge/gymanastics thing is giving me an issue, if only stylistically.

Running, Climbing and Swimming are all soldiery skills, to me at least. As is Dodge. Gymnastic dodge not so much but if you're taking Athletics with Synthacardium anyway, taking Dodge on top is somewhat inefficient.

Dodge is a little more useful overall, and more versatile than Gymnastics. And having a high Gymnastics doesn't just mean you're good on the parallel bars or doing flips. It's also knowing how to fall and how to perform an efficient jump, stuff like that.

[Zyerne]

Oh, I know. I'd happily take both.

If I had the points.

[Rastus]

I personally never quite understood why people completely eschew Dodge in favor of Gymnastics. I mean, sure BP gets tight real quick, but your kinda just throwing away extra dodge dice. It's not as if you're forced to choose one skill over the other when making a dodge test.

Plus, you know, Gymnastic Dodge is a Full Defense-only option.

[Zyerne]

I think synthacardium is a big reason to be honest, although there does seem to be two camps, the dodge camp and the gymnastics+melee camp.

[Zyerne]

Take 2, Essence isn't calculated as bioware isn't finalised but there's still some room (and cash) to spare

Made a few tweaks, dropped Athletics group a little and got Dodge, changed some negative qualities. Added gear, but still need to detail Contacts.

"Bishop" - Slavko Emil Radko

Description:

[ Spoiler ]

Towering over 2.6 m tall, built like a bull, with reddish-green eyes, bright golden-red spiked hair and a pair of prominent curved ram horns, Bishop is an intimidating troll of legendary proportions. He wears camouflage armor; a massive helmet specially built to accommodate his prominent horns, combat boots and carries a Stoner Ares 202 Medium Machine-Gun on a sling around his broad shoulders. He regularly chomps on a disgusting, foul cigar and has an obvious right cyber lower-arm.

Character Background:

[ Spoiler ]

The blast ripped through the crowded marketplace and shrapnel tore into the soft bodies of women and children enjoying a warm summer day at the Sarajevo Open Market. The shock wave threw Slavko fifteen feet away from his mother, her warm hand squeezing his small one…

Seeing the unattached arm holding his hand, little Slavko starting screaming, screaming, screaming…

He sat up in the small, sweat-drenched, humid little bed… The smell of tobacco, sweat, and garbage mingled with the sweet smell of meat burning on a grill. The hunger pangs came first, quickly followed by the dull ache of a hangover and the sweet Betel after-taste. He slowly got out of bed and spat into a corner of his room. He has to crouch slightly so as not to hit his head against the thatched roof.

Six months already in Africa… Six months is the dreadful heat, spending the days dodging bullets, mosquitoes, grenades and mortars. The nights were not much better. He missed the cool, jagged peaks of the Balkans, where he had grown up… Fraggin’ U.N. and fraggin’ Blue Helmets!!, what did they know about war? Genocide? Bullshit! Should get a medal for killing ragheads and their spawn… Should be rewarded… I’m a fraggin’ HERO!

Following Coronel Miloslachenko to Africa was the only option. Fighting this faction today, friends tomorrow… Cred was good, and that’s all that mattered… He missed the Coronel however… Blown up by an ancient landmine is no way to go… At least he had found a new company which did not ask too many questions about his past…

[ Spoiler ]

Bohlale is the chief of a major tribe in Somalia. He also works as a fixer, capitalizing on the natural resources that surround him to accumulate wealth for his business and his people. The two met after Ramiel's walkabout, as they attended the same college for a short time. Afterward, Bohlale returned to his tribe to lead them while Ramiel stayed in UCAS and became who he is today. A few years ago, Ramiel visited Bohlale with some of his "friends" and helped Boh out. The tribe had been hit with the same affliction as other natives in the area, a disease called Ifrit Industries. Ramiel and his group helped prime the tribe's wells, etc. all pointed towards helping the people get back on their feet.

Background

[ Spoiler ]

A mob of trolls and other "officials" walk down the street, collecting money from anyone and everyone they find. Child prostitutes litter the streets, offering themselves for a hot meal and a handful of nuyen. Vendors and hawkers shout at the top of their lungs, each trying to drown out the others. As for their wares, nothing could be more different. One sells weaponry for self-protection, another sells "fresh" fish that has likely lain there for well over a week, and yet a third is a Hawala, exchanging nuyen for "respectable" coins. Just another day in Africa. The relative tranquility of this scene is suddenly marred by the arrival of well-dressed officials. A rarity here. Most "officials" are little more than, or in fact are, thugs that have been slightly cleaned up. These men are from Ifrit Services, here to take and take and take what they can from the country until nothing is left.

Shaking his head slightly, a Wakyambi elf stands back up and looks out at the desert battlefield. It had been during his walkabout that IS came to Somalia. Ramiel hadn't actually been around except to see the aftereffects, something that has haunted him and will continue to haunt him for the rest of his life. At the time, he was actually living off the money raised by his tribe on another continent. To supplement that money long enough to get through college, he worked as a low-level analyst for Ares Macrotech. after a while, he began to really look at the data, not just mindlessly process it, and he was disgusted with what he saw. He quit his job, but he still needed the cash. So, he turned to the shadows. He ran with a group of friends all throughout his college years, mainly as tactical support and analysis in an attempt to minimize risk. After his school years, he began to look for legitimate work. Well... somewhat legitimate work. He joined a mercenary organization in the same basic function. Here though, his skills were somewhat more useful as a scout. Using his natural Wakyambi speed, he could run about a large area as a living recorder and collect data. Even more helpful, he could filter through data for the most useful tidbits. After a few years of working in a larger merc company, he finally decided to set out on his own, easier that way, you see.

I have a name! I always suck at figuring out names and usually default to something I pulled out of randomly typing with my eyes closed and adding vowels as needed. Kindol Armand. This time I'll be playing Eldon McCoy, aka Hatfield.

Plus, you know, Gymnastic Dodge is a Full Defense-only option.

It's the same for Dodge, unless you defend against melee attacks, but then you have your Melee or Unarmed skill to help out (if you have one, that is).

Though I don't completely understand the reason for the request, I'll reformat it for Dumpshock later today. (One or two minor changes still in the pipe: might swap out a point of edge for a few more skills, might get a cheaper car in favor of more drones -- because everyone loves a steel lynx with a grenade launcher -- and may do a few other gear tweaks to pick up wired 1.)

Putting a placeholder for a repost of backstory with minor adjustments and contacts included. Realized the Tir and Britain were different places and am going to adjust some nationalities accordingly.

Oh there's plenty of reasons. First, it doesn't require me to click a link everytime I want to review it. It's easier to read. It's easier to copy into notepad so I can look at it offline. I'm lazy and prefer to only have to scroll up and down. So on and so fourth. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

Your wish is my command, master of game.

That aside, a quick question: I paid for ECCM (and autosofts separately) for each drone. Is that how you want it priced out or should those costs only be paid once?

Lsoing my net overnight gave me time for a bit of a rethink on the 'ware. However, after getting the issue with the ISP sorted, comp stopped recognising my modem so I've had to rebuild this morning.

Ok, it was wishful thinking that my previous version of Requiem was correct...will teach me to do things in a rush!

So here's V3! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

Requiem

Character Sketch: Here

Character Background:

[ Spoiler ]

You can call me Requiem. Although I’d never admit it to a potential client, with you I can freely say I’m damaged goods, fragged over by my superiors and the experiences they put me and my unit through. That’s not to say I’m not lethal, I’ve honed my edge since those days and I can be a vicious, cold bastard when I need to be, it’s just that I need to disassociate myself from it all, blank it out, become less human, something that doesn’t sit well with me or my ex wife.

I started out as a good corporate citizen for the Man, in this case Ares, and it was clear from the outset that I was bright and athletic enough for certain aspects of corporate life but that I didn’t have the right mental framework to make it as a functional wage slave. I was recruited to the security programme and after excelling at that was given the chance to join the Firewatch training school at the tender age of twenty three. Naturally I leapt at the chance to become one of Ares’ best and I strove to prove myself again and again during the rigorous training regime. They modded me to the point where I didn’t really recognise myself anymore but there was no doubt that I was a new and dangerous fighter. The move-by-wire system is a marvel of engineering but given that my wires are an early model I’ve never really worked the kinks out of them and they still require regular overhauls to keep me in check, one of the reasons I got my little friends installed later on to mitigate the stress on my system. Beyond that I have faster muscles and an onboard computer that keeps me sharp and knowing where I am at all times.

I wasn’t directly involved in the infamous creation of the Chicago containment zone in ’55 but as Ares responded to increasing pressure to clean up the mess our unit was deployed against at least six nests in the next three years, culminating in "Operation Extermination" in ’58. I will never forget the things I saw over those years and my dreams are still haunted by those images today. The doc says my fear of insects is understandable given the circumstances, although I think he’d prefer it without the overwhelming rage that fills me at the same time!

I won’t say that Ares weren’t good to those of us who were less able to cope with events. I saw a stream of shrinks and quacks in an effort to purge all my fear and self loathing, all at the company’s expense. But it never seemed enough. I withdrew from the world and for a while became next to useless to myself and everyone around me. My wife was a psychiatric nurse that I met during my extended convalescence and plenty of people have told me it was a mistake to marry someone in those circumstances. But she did manage to pull me out of my despondent pit and help me sort my life out. We lasted six years together which is no mean feat and I’m impressed she put up with me that long.

Once I was back on my feet Ares put me on the fledgling Firefight programme as an instructor. Here was something where my martial skills, anger and problems with disassociation could be safely channeled. Ares did an excellent job of creating a functioning martial art more or less from scratch and I am proud to have been a part of those initial stages. Apathy still struck me every now and again and I would relapse in to a semi fugue state but more and more I was able to hold it together.

When the crash happened at the end of ’64 everything was going to shit, Claire had left me and Ares didn’t seem like a safe haven any more. I took the opportunity of a glitch in records to slip away from the corp and head out for new horizons. I know now that the corp had an eye on me all along and I’ve worked for them several times since, but I guess that they no longer wanted a liability on their official books and I was more useful to them as a freelance operative.

I made my way to Seattle eventually, pitching up in Redmond a couple of years ago. Although I plied my skills as a shadowrunner from time to time I preferred to have a steadier income and found work at a dojo in Touristville, keeping street kids out of trouble and helping the odd fellow runner to up their game. It was from here that I hooked up with the Stillwater group and was on hand to see it all go to shit when a merc force blew them to hell. I even took a couple of bullets in the fallout despite the fact that I had told myself not to get too involved. I stuck around long enough to get a real attachment for the place, even when things were falling apart and it was there that I met first Aria and then Silk.

Now I may still look twenty, (my gods do I not feel young any longer), but I really should have known better than to get involved with someone as young as Silk even if she did make me feel youthful again. Although it didn’t go far as Aria ‘stepped’ in and sorted me out. Now Aria is like the daughter I never had, as ridiculous as that may be given what she is, and I had no choice but to heed her advice. I decided that a warmer climate would do wonders for my aches and pains and I signed on with a merc team bound for Africa.

…and this is where I am now. Taking in the sun and trying not to get dead.

Rastus - I would have loved to get the Thunderbolts but damn those things are expensive!!! I hope you won't have to check too much against RAW now, I think I've got it right this time!

Everyone else - I have to appologise for the Milspec armour as it may draw some nasty sh*t our way! Ah well, loot some bodies and we can equip everyone in it (without the restricted quality gear too)! Or just get a very good APC...and a tank...and an attack helicopter...must stop reading the War! gear list now... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Ok, you know what Aria? I changed my mind. You can keep the Milspec armor, I was mistaking it for it's incarnations in previous editions. I'll just bomb Thanee instead. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) Seriously man, heavy? For a sniper? I mean I can understand not wanting to die and loving goodies, if you actually need that armor then you fail so very hard at being a sniper. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/silly.gif)

True. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I don't think she would have had such armor (more like light) in the military. But as a merc, you get the most badass stuff you can lay your hands on, right? At least, I would think so (the Barrett has to wait until it can be afforded, though). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Besides, I somewhat doubt, that she will be able to just snipe... that would be kinda boring, or wouldn't it?
The armor is for when she cannot just hang back and snipe, and when that happens, you need all the protection you can get. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I would have picked up different kinds for different jobs, but they are too expensive for that (this beast costs over 60k), so I just settled with the one big armor and a regular set in addition.

Bye
