Username: The_Sane_Hatter Name: Greg Kozlowski Age: 34 Gender: Male Race/Nationality/Species: American born to Scottish and Polish parents. Human. Orientation: Straight Personality: Greg's a bit of an oddity among those in his line of work. He holds his honor and professional reputation above all else, and it's come to be the mainly selling point for his goods. Which is handy, since he's not exactly a people person, or a convincing liar. He's a bit stubborn once he's set his mind on something, and could be described as mentally unhinged. His patience wears thin rather quickly, and he's been known to snap on occasion. Terrible sense of humor. Rank: Former contractor for the U.S. Government, currently head of a less-than-legal export company. Occupation: Arms, Armour, Logistics, Manpower, and Information Supplier. He's had to diversify in recent years. Education: Two engineering degrees, and a whole bunch of hands-on experience with weapons and their respective manuals. Picked up combat advice from the military groups he's worked with. Factions: Though he's made friends among various militias and rebel groups, he's not well-liked in respectable or law-enforcing circles. Religion/Philosophy: Non-religious. Greg believes armed revolution to be a right, and obligation, of men. A government is more likely to listen to the demands of a population of well-armed citizens than to those of a population armed solely with votes and strongly-worded letters. Political Ideals: Greg went into the arms business for a few reasons. He felt guilty helping the United States and other countries expand upon their preexisting advanced arsenals, and wanted to do something to put more power in the hands of the people, in an attempt to balance the scales. A staunch advocate for personal freedoms above all else, he couldn't care less about what people believe in or do in their own homes. If they want to try and push their beliefs on others, then the other side should become equally as armed. Biography: Born to a mechanic and an accountant in the American Midwest, Greg could be described as adequately middle-class. He hung around his father's workplace as a kid, learning how things worked, and how to keep them working. Living in peaceful America, he'd only catch snippets of the state of the world from whatever was on currently bothering the news enough for them to report on. He never really invested himself in politics or world affairs, so it came as a bit of a surprise when he set his mind to developing tech for the military. Perhaps he wanted to keep things the way they were, peaceful. And for a while after college, that's how his mind was, peaceful. But the longer he worked with the military, the more he realized what a one-sided fight the world had become. Practically using the nuclear option on cavemen, from a technological logistics viewpoint. Crushing armed revolutions in the name of peace and order, despite the United States being birthed from such a revolution itself. The disconnect between ideals and reality grew too large for Greg to handle, and in a sense, it broke something inside him. In an effort to try and tip the scales back to an equal point, he betrayed the government, stole plans and secrets, and went rogue, selling them to various groups around the globe. Over the past few years, he's made his way around the globe, establishing connections, transporting goods, scraping together tech from various superpowers, and backing the insurgent sides of various conflicts. He sleeps better at night. Skills: Manning, manufacturing, and maintaining weapons and weapons systems. Avoiding arrest and capture. Acquiring things he shouldn't. Can defend himself if need be. Transportation: Shipping is vital to supplying arms, and as a result he's aquired quite a few contacts in various fields of transport. Be it by land, sea, or air, Greg will find a way to ship it there. Home: Though his profession requires him to move about quite a bit, his base of operations is located in Central Asia. Likes: Well-maintained equipment, arms and armor, quiet countrysides, small towns, the ever-advancing state of technology, personal freedoms. Dislikes: Government types, peace-lovin' hippies, backstabbing snakes, the color blue, people who have no idea what they're doing handling things they shouldn't, corporations sticking their fingers where they don't belong. Weapons: Though he has access to a wide array of weapons, Greg has a personal fondness for a Pernach automatic pistol and OTS-14 GROZA with an underslung grenade launcher he picked up in Eastern Europe a while back. Clothing: Greg tends to avoid armor, and stick with his trusty jacket. Due to lack of proper facilities in some of the locations he sticks around in for work, he tends to wear the same clothes for extended periods of time. Theme Song: The Glitch Mob - Fortune Days

Username: Phoenix347 Name: Akuro Spade Age: 26 Gender: Male Nationality: American, although he has moved internationally to various countries. Orientation: Heterosexual Personality: Akuro is an oddity of a person. While some might diagnose him with social personality disorder, Akuro doesn't like the idea. Generally he's in persona similar to high class business men or politicians, befitting his position within the Union, but not always. Much of the time his personality differs with the person, but he very much values first impressions. His is cunning and manipulative enough to elevate himself to a Union Council seat, and retain it despite his relatively young age. He favors listening to orchestral music and playing the piano. Rank: Union Councilman, President of: Yakigima Heavy Industries, Khaddor Arms, Celestial Cybernetics, Orion Transportation Occupation: Head of heavy machinery and weapons development in the Union Education: Various Engineering degrees, Biology degrees, Physics degrees Factions: The Union Philosophy: Athiest Political Ideals: Akuro calls himself a 'cybernetic reformist'. Essentially, he is very supportive of incorporating cybernetics and advanced technology into daily life. Within the Union, he is one of the more adamant politicians, and prefers legitimate business. The Union's advantage of the black market contacts, underworld connections and under-the-table deals generally keep him more satisfied than he would be a legitimate business man or politician. Biography: Born in America to an English father and Chinese mother, whose backgrounds touch almost half the major countries in Europe, Asia and the Americas, Akuro was a protege raised within a strict household. For his rebellious years, he installed himself in each school's student council where he would take advantage of loopholes to extend the length of the president's power. He was also sought for his decisions within politics. He was on track to being a successful politician or a lawyer, but held a fascination with machines. He jumped from college to college on engineering courses, and as technology progressed, he began to take an interest in what he referred to as biomechanical engineering. While completing yet another degree, his family pulled him back to their home in France, and decided to involve him in their affairs of the Union. However, they were killed shortly after achieving the second tier by a feuding family. In response, Akuro devoted two years to reaching the Council seat of his division and thoroughly cleaning out the feuding family from his division. He refocused much of his division after that to industry, specifically weapons and heavy machinery. While there is a small biological section, its only focus is on cybernetic research and design. Akuro contributes to his division greatly, designing some of the new military tech that allowed China and recently Russia to rival the 'western giant'. Within the Union, he has been a more relaxed councilman, paying little attention during their rare meetings, but his capability outside those rooms has prevented any from removing him forcefully. He enjoys the debates they enter however, and even though he may not seem interested in influencing the world, he does so very much on his own. His power within the Union is strikingly similar to the others, almost setting him as a baseline for comparison. Politically, he meets with national leaders often on industry and military technology, economically, he's wary enough to prevent loss of production and profit. Skills: Mechanical engineering, Biomechanical engineering, Weapons designing Transportation: Council private transports such as stealth planes. Home: Changes at random based on current investigation against him. Likes: Cybernetics, future tech, designing, orchestral music Dislikes:Union council squabbles, dramatic characters, ignorance Weapons: While his guards hold most of the firepower, Akuro does carry a personally designed 10mm pistol and taser gun. Clothing: Generally wears a white button down shirt with a tie, black slacks, black loafers, and a long coat. He sometimes changes his attire based on his current location. Theme Song: Agnus Dei

Username: Xelyn_X13 Name: Gabrielle Arden Age: 26 Gender: Male Race/Nationality/Species: Caucasian, Born in America with mixed European bloodlines Orientation: Pansexual Personality: Private, quiet, reserved, cryptic, serious, pessimistic, passive-aggressive towards authority figures, assertive towards subordinates, 'lone wolf', 'doesn't play well with others', cold, selectively empathetic but not necessarily sympathetic, irritable, calm and calculating, collected. Rank: Government trained but no longer associated with them. Word of mouth puts him as highly desirable though, be it for hire or hunt. Occupation: Freelance Assassin and Gun for Hire (as well as other odd jobs of questionable legality) Education: Barely passed high school, no college. Formal education is very low. However, military training proved to be a turning point with his education and he quickly started soaking up knowledge like a sponge. He isn't stupid. Simply 'uneducated' in the public eye. Factions: Basically, his loyalties lie with the highest bidder until another job comes along. No close circles. He doesn't clump himself in with any groups and any interaction he has with them is on a temporary basis until a job is done. That doesn't mean he won't work with a client or organization more than once, as long as the pay is good. Religion/Philosophy: Gabrielle believes in a higher power, be it god or the universe or whatever, but he doesn't really believe in a devil and certainly doesn't believe in heaven or hell. He figures whatever God that may be out there has already forsaken him a long time ago so he's not terribly worried about getting even worse on his bad side. "God is good, doesn't mean he likes me very much." Political Ideals: As far as politics go, he couldn't really care less how a government is run. He's pretty sure no matter how good their intentions are and what plan they decided to go with to try and better humanity, it would all end up crumbling anyways. There will always be suffering of some sort, no matter who is in charge. Besides, the more chaos there is, the better business is for him. He does have an odd moral code for someone in his line of work though, and it often contradicts itself. He does what he thinks is right when he can and there are certain lines he won't cross unless there is no other option. But then again, he does kill for a living. It's complicated. Biography: Gabrielle grew up an orphan in poverty, extremely poor and barely surviving. During his youngest years, he was kept in an orphanage for a while, but soon funds were cut short and it was shut down. He was put into the foster care system after that as a ward of the state, being passed around from one abusive household to another and never really belonging. He never stayed in one school for long, having to move around so much, but he was a victim of bullying everywhere he went, despite the fact that he did his best to stay quiet and unnoticed. It was just the way things were. His teachers were always complaining that he was impossible to teach, because he could never pick any information up and remember it before having to start again somewhere else. Finally, he was able to barely scrape by with a high school diploma, not really deserving it but being awarded it anyways. After that he gave up on school and decided to join the military, hoping that a war would break out and maybe he would get shot. It was basically an attempt at suicide because he just couldn't care less for his own life but was too afraid to pull the trigger himself. Unfortunately, war did not break out at that point and instead he lived in boot camp hell, being broken down so the military could build him up the way they wanted him to be. He wasn't so compliant though. The constant head butting between him and his superiors did spark something in him though and he began to show promise in many areas that soon were recognized as skills that would be best used in black ops missions. Eventually he was placed in a secret program that had him doing questionable things without full knowledge of just what he was carrying out orders on. He was very successful at whatever it was he was doing but eventually got sick of being left out of the loop and broke into the top secret files that had information on his missions. After that he left the military without a trace and they still have no idea how he disappeared or where he went. It's been years since then and Gabrielle has been living off the grid as a mercenary of sorts. Basically doing anything dangerous or illegal, usually involving killing, for whoever is willing to pay him enough. He isn't happy with what he's become, but hey, it puts food on the table. He's come to realize that the world is full of monsters and if you are going to survive, you best become one yourself. Skills: Sniping, shooting, hand to hand combat, knife use, weaponry, tracking, information gathering, torture (both inflicting and withstanding), strategy planning, resourcefulness, etc... Transportation: He owns a motorcycle but will use pretty much anything else he can get his hands on as well. He isn't above stealing transport. Home: Due to security issues, bases must constantly be established and easily vacated for his own safety. He is constantly on the move, usually staying in run down apartment buildings and abandoned houses in the worst parts of towns and cities. Likes: Silence, the dark, high places, open spaces, hard music, pain, stress relief, beating the crap out of someone or something, money, jobs that require protecting a target instead of killing it, innocence Dislikes: closed spaces, sitting with his back to a door or window, being followed, being lied to or misinformed, people not telling him things, feeling vulnerable, sleasey people, living in poverty, reminders of the past, people in general, himself Weapons: To make this a little easier, let's just say he has a lot of guns of varying types, a lot of knives of varying types, some varying explosives, and can pretty much turn just about any common object into a weapon given enough urgency to a situation. He likes to think of himself as a weapon, to be honest. He's never without some sort of defense. Clothing: Usually wears dark, tight, but unrestricted clothing, a long coat, leather gloves, military boots, and occasionally a face mask. Powers: None Picture: Theme Song: The Line Begins to Blur - NIN

Username: Yue Belmont Name: Snow Kaylen Age: 20 Gender: Male Race/Nationality/Species: British, born in the UK. Wales, to be exact. Orientation: Gay Personality: Charming, manipulative, stubborn and acts like he's cold hearted when really, he is actually very kind. He only does so to prevent himself from getting close to people.
Rank: Founded his own corporation when he was 18, youngest in the country to do so. Had funding from the US government due to his past connections to them, and the potential they saw. Also does a lot of work as an assassin, usually working for the CIA or other intelligence agencies that need him (usually US allies). Despite his age, he's proven quite adept at it. Occupation: Trained to be an assassin since he was fourteen by his father and mother, and a very secretive section of the CIA. This is what led to his current career as an assassin. Founder of Kaylen K. Corp. (A corporation specializing in cybernetic implants, and training of soldiers, assassins, etc. who use them). Has over five thousand employees, also owns over 55 business properties all over the world. Published three books, one when he was 15 and two when he was 17. They were all "fictions" based on cybernetics, and raising "super soldiers". The books were published under a pseudonym until he was 18 and publicly came out as their author. Due to how realistic the content actually was, the CIA quickly realized how much he understood the program they put him through, and how much potential he showed in possibly improving that. His knowledge of cybernetics was also displayed quite heavily, so they funneled money to him through "investors" to help him start his own company. They purchase some of their cybernetics from other scientists, but they work on weaponizing them and making them more suited for special combat. Education: Graduated high school at 15, 4.3 GPA. College at 18, business degree & criminology degree with a focus on psychology. Also learned much about cybernetics on the side. A child protege to be sure, the CIA and his parents made sure that as well as growing up to be a superb weapon, he would also grow up to be extremely intelligent.
Factions: As far as Snow is concerned, you are his ally until he is either ordered to kill you or until you do something that concerns him and his trust in you.
Religion/Philosophy: Catholic Christian. Political Ideals: Allied with many people of many different political backgrounds. He, himself, is a democrat. Biography: Born to a Scottish CIA agent & an American special victims investigator, Snow never stayed in one place for to long. Wherever they did go, it always lasted at least a month's stay in some five star hotel which consisted of whispers and mysterious phone calls, files filling up the bed & Snow being called out for some special training. It was never about the family for his parents; they worked, and he & his sister trained. They were merely baggage. Not much to say until Snow graduated, which is when he published his first of three books and went to college. He was 15. In the books, he demonstrated a strong understanding for how the CIA program to raise "super soldiers" worked (though in the story, he made no mentions of the CIA, and passed this off purely as fiction). That along with the understanding of cybernetics he was showing pushed the CIA to look into this book series more, but they never found the author. Not until Snow turned 18 and publicly acknowledged himself as the writer. Seeing how well their project had succeeded, this small section of the CIA helped fund a new cybernetics business, while also working on getting him to better establish and improve upon their "super soldier program", which consisted of heavy brainwashing, cybernetic body modifications, and constant, intense physical training. It should be noted, this program is extremely top secret, and highly possible some sections of the CIA (and even the President himself) are unaware of it's existence.
Skills: Fighting, killing, business, drawing & writing, sports. Transportation: Whether it be by air, sea or ground; Snow always has a way to get to where he needs to be. (Though, he prefers jets and planes.) Home: Since his work requires him to travel a lot, Snow doesn't have just one home; he has several. One in America, two in Germany & two in Italy as well as three in Wales and two in Asia. 6 out of 10 of these were passed down to Snow by relatives (some of whom got them through working with the CIA) while he bought the other four himself.
Likes: Animals, people, art, reading & writing, water (especially rain,) and movies / music. Dislikes: Spiders.
Weapons: Katana as well as a 9mil handgun, a silenced Desert Eagle, a silenced sniper rifle for the special contracts, throwing knives & a hidden dagger. Clothing: Black suit with white button up, blood red tie, and red scarf on the cold nights. Powers: His sight and speed were enhanced when he was just a boy. He went in for a surgery to fix his eyes, however; the government's doctor went in and enhanced his eyesight to 80/20 by adding some cybernetic implants. His speed and reflexes were a little harder to change, requiring gene manipulation which partly was affected through puberty. The result was his body makeup changed to allow him to run and move faster than the average person. It's even quite possible he would out pace most Olympic runners. Otherwise, he is perfectly normal.

Username: Lord Sithious Name: Vincent Roberts Age: 27 Gender: Male Race/Nationality/Species: British and French heritage, born in Canada, moved to and currently living in the UK, human. Orientation: Straight Personality: Like any person, varied. Typically though, he's quite talkative, showing his strong devotion to politics. He can go into quite the rants when he gets passionate about a topic, but on stage he keeps his talking more concise. Humorous sometimes, charismatic, and passionate are the things people usually see, but there is a side to everyone that few people see, and that's a side he's let very few people see.
Rank: Party leader of the NSCP (New Social Credit Party), and the President of his two businesses, British Overseas and National Development Industries, and it's subsidiary, the Britannia Private Military Company. Occupation: Major global political figure, business owner, controversial figure. Education: Highschool education in Canada, a bit of post-secondary education in Political Sciences, Economics, and Business Administration. Learned much about politics from the time he was 14 or 15 by debating online, learned more about military tactics when he started his PMC and hired on ex-military figures to help with administrating it.
Factions: The New Social Credit Party and both of his businesses. Outside of the circles he's made, he has little affiliation with anyone else. Fancies himself as a bit of a political lone wolf.
Religion/Philosophy: Christian of the non-denominational variety. Believes very much in the ideals of "loving thy neighbor" and has publicly denounced the ideas of forcing Christian morals on other people. To this end, he's supported gay marriage and adoption, among other things.
Political Ideals: Much like his religious beliefs. However, his economic beliefs are quite unique as well. His view is to use tax money to fund new businesses (and small businesses) to help them grow and become more prosperous, and also to help them employ more people and pay higher wages. A staunch internationalist, promoting ideals of cooperation and the elimination of racism and nationalism. Despite his pride in Britain, he puts his values of helping all humanity first. However, it should be noted that in contrast to his desire to help people attain better lives, he's also proven to be considerably militaristic as well. He's garnered much controversy by sending troops from his PMC into conflicts that the UN and other countries have condemned him for (many UN nations have banned mercenary companies, and some of the countries this PMC has been active in were among those that have). With that said though, his PMC has met great success in putting down a number of terrorist groups and tyrannical governments, and and has seen equal success with maintaining peace in these countries. Despite technically being a "mercenary company", they act more like a large scale vigilante group in practice. Instead of contracting their troops, the company pays all soldiers an hourly wage, and has often times sent troops into conflicts they were not asked to join. This has resulted in them warring both against rebel groups and governments, sometimes at the same time, which some UN members have claimed is the company attempting to take over these countries for themselves. Roberts' companies have helped to fund clean water, farming, and infrastructure projects in many of the countries that have been militarily involved in, and in some countries they haven't been. These projects have met with a great deal of success, some would say more far reaching than what most charities have accomplished. But, it's also been noted that much of the funding for this comes out of Roberts' company's themselves, which some view as an expensive business practice.
Biography: Vincent was born in British Columbia, Canada. He had only sisters, a mother, and an abusive father. His father left when before he turned 12, but that wasn't the last Vincent would see. The next years of his life were fraught with custody battles, the loss of his family home, and years of what most people would have considered poverty. He always wanted to be a hero, but when he was about 14 or 15, he discovered that probably the best way to make a difference in this world was through politics. Early on he was a supporter of the British Conservative party (despite living in Canada), and part of his more right wing beliefs came from his grandfather (a business owner himself). But as years went on, Vincent started to become more aware of his own poverty, and the poverty of those far worse off than himself. Plans began to form for how much better he thought he could make the world, but something stopped him one day. It was the realization that no matter what he did, what good he achieved, in the world of democracy, anything he did could be undone. He knew things would have to be made different, and it seemed the only way to do this was to be like Caesar and cross the Rubicon. The years went on and he went to university. In the beginning of his first year, there was an election going on. He didn't like any of the big three parties, and he didn't like their platforms, especially the disregard it seemed people had for poverty and child abuse. So signs and posters started popping up around different parts of BC, with the words "Don't Bother Voting" on them. A few weeks later, he held a rally outlining why voting wouldn't make a difference, how the only way to make change was to stand up and speak. And nothing spoke more powerfully than silence. That election had one of the lowest voter turn outs in history. As time went on, Vincent learned more about business administration, and started to look for financial supporters for a company he wanted to start. Their goal was to focus on green technology, military technology, and quality consumer goods. When the business started to take off, things went well. They sold millions of phones that didn't break every time you dropped them, laptops that could last 10 years, virus software that was cheap and efficient, and electric cars that ran as good as a gas powered cars. Things went well, and that's when they turned their sights to business acquisitions. They took over British Aerospace, a number of PMC's, and started building their own private military bases in a number of countries (including Egypt and Singapore). Before their eyes, they watched the business go from perhaps 300 army personnel to almost 3 million now. They took part in a conflict in the Middle East to wipe out a terrorist group similar to ISIS, they went deep into Africa to wipe out Boko Haram, and when Pro-Russian "Dissidents" tried to occupy new areas in Ukraine, they pushed them back, and even reclaimed a bit of old Ukrainian territory (lost since the mid 2010's). The company was being praised by some, vilified by others, and all the while Vincent was building up his political party in every country he could, all across Europe, in Canada, Japan, South Korea, a number of African countries, even India. His party hasn't won an election yet, and some are unsure he can due to his age, but he's shown himself to be a capable leader, and times are quickly changing. Will this be the year of change he's waited for his whole life?
Skills: Good public speaking skills, has managed to both entertain his audiences while talking politics with them. Also has proven to be adept at running his businesses (with some advice no doubt), but also has shown himself to be capable with tactics and military planning with his company (again, no doubt still taking some advice). Capable firearm user and has skills with swordsmanship, a pass time he quite enjoys. Also is a relatively capable actor as well, though has only done stage acting (may even prefer it).
Transportation: Has always had a strong affection for Aston Martins. As a result, he owns an old Aston Martin One-77, as well as a David Brown Speedback GT (a homage to the DB5 from a separate company). Home: A town house type home in London, as well as a manor estate in British Columbia, Canada.
Likes: Britain, Earl Grey Tea, history, Spring, rain, kids, politics, guns, swords, reading, his expensive tastes, and women (much more than most people think). Dislikes: Child abuse, rapists, filibuster (google it), and whatever he views as "inefficiency". Also dislikes drugs, alcohol, and tobacco (has never actually used drugs or tobacco, and has never gotten drunk, even as a teen) and has sworn himself off of all three.
Weapons: Technically not legal for him to own, in Britain at least. Does have a large collection of weapons it's said, though no one has any idea where. It's said he favors Walther's above most other pistols though, and that he has a collection of a variety of different swords as well (from cavalry sabres to katanas). Clothing: Fine suits, especially his favorite grey ones. Also has been known to wear a black leather jacket, black jeans, and a polo shirt (or dress shirt) as something more casual. Powers: Of persuasion, that is about the extent of it. Not a genius by most conventional definitions (science, math, etc.), but his keen sense of "problem solving" with political issues and his ability to charm certainly can be called his powerful qualities.
Picture: (Tried my best to make him look 27 when I edited this pic, wasn't easy though. XD Also, please ignore the cyan zebra pattern, he does not wear clothes like that.)

Username: Lord Sithious Name: Richard Tregaron Age: 28 Gender: Male Race/Nationality/Species: British, mix of Scot, Welsh, Irish, and English, born in London. Orientation: Straight Personality: Quiet, serious, and to the point. He doesn't waste time on expressing himself, just takes away from doing the mission.
Rank: Special Operations operative for MI6, working in cooperation with a special task group of the CIA. Occupation: A special operations spy, basically a sword and shield for Britain when necessary. Education: Educated in a London for first portion of education (up to high school), went to Oxford to study political sciences, eventually got interested in the military and joined. Always wanting to push himself, he tried out for the SAS. Did outstandingly in the Fan Dance, served a few years in the Middle East. Quit after he felt the SAS wasn't doing enough to help people globally, joined MI6 for special operations.
Factions: Total loyalty to Britain, the crown, and MI6. He gets orders, and he carries them out, period.
Religion/Philosophy: Presumed non-denominational Christian, but it's hard to tell from the lack of discussion he has about it.
Political Ideals: To serve Britain and the Service no matter what, that is all. Biography: Richard had an average life growing up, though it was fraught with violence, as was the case in many UK schools with the youth. He never really partook, but it framed how insane the world could be. Deciding he wanted to bring more meaning to the world, he joined the SAS. His missions went well, but he saw too many comrades, and too many civilians, killed. Usually, it seemed to be for nothing. This prompted him to join MI6 instead, hoping he could make a bigger difference in the world. Much other personal knowledge about him is unknown, he seems a bit of a blank slate at times, suspiciously so perhaps.
Skills: Shooting, hand to hand combat, sabotage, stealth, and an assortment of other skills that make him a very adept dagger in the arsenal of the British government.
Transportation: A more modern Land Rover with armoring to keep out bullets and other nasty weapons. Home: A flat in London, but makes use of other homes owned by the Service around the world.
Likes: Unknown. Dislikes: Unknown.
Weapons: (Fill in later) Clothing: Usually black military fatigues, or something along the lines of Vincent's casual clothing. He's not someone who fusses much about clothing on average. Powers: N/A.
Picture: Richard (Best I can find for now.)

Username: irigan kitsune Name: Leila Storm Age: 25 Gender: Female Race/Nationality/Species: Human?, Annaren, Orientation: Heterosexual Personality: Quiet, observant, a little manipulative, and can be kind when she wants to be. Rank: On the government council, Owns a corporation that researches medicine Occupation:President of a Corporation Education: Has a Master's degree in business and medicine Factions: (we'll work on this later, it'll focus on nations or political groups you are loyal to, allied to, etc.) Religion/Philosophy: As long as I'm happy with how I'm living my life. Political Ideals: Leila supports the government of Annar. She works hard to make sure the people of her country have a bountiful and prosperous life and that those who do wrong are punished accordingly. She believes in teaching all children and help those who hunger and need a place to stay. She's more independent than in league with any party. Biography: Leila was known to be a young genius, and grew up to fame. She was known to have found a cure for the White Sickness that was plaguing her country for sometime. She grew up with a growing interest in medicine to help the people and business from helping the country grow as a whole. She doesn't really think of herself and prefers to put others before her. As she grew older, she finally established her medicinal company known as Annpharma. Research and cures have been known to come from this place. Annar just so happens to be an area at the top of Norway that has quite a heavy Finnish and Sami population. The area became home to refuges trying to avoid Russian aggression, and they just ended up populating this previously low populated area quite quickly. Because of the already existing Finnish and Sami populations, and the area's disputes over which area that region should belong to, the region broke off of Norway, while trading some territories it held to Finland for other territories, (to make it more difficult for Russian aggressors to enter the region) and formed their own new and independent country. With it's new independence, more refuges flocked to this new nation that promoted easier access to refuges. The Sami people were also attracted to it from other parts of Scandinavia, seeing this as chance for a more independent homeland. Over the next few decades, the region started to develop it's own distinct "hybrid" language, and also a great deal of new infrastructure that allowed the region to become quite a technological marvel. Smart investments and trade helped to secure it financially, and now it has a standard of living similar to Norway and Sweden, and a population of around 5 million or so. Skills: She uses a compound known Inngel for curing wounds a compound that is known to alleviate pain and start the healing process almost immediately. Transportation: Car, plane, sometimes bike. Home: Her modest home that is in Innail, a city in Annar. Likes: Learning new ways curing diseases, Reading, taking a drive in new places. Dislikes:Spiders, cooking, ignorance. Weapons:She carries a small dagger hidden in her suit and a gun hidden in secret places. Clothing: She usually wears a suit when she goes to her company Picture:Theme Song: (Also optional?)

Username: Mister Winchester Name: Vex Penderghast Age: 32 Gender: Male, He/Him Race/Nationality/Species: Human, Mostly Caucasian with a hint something special. Orientation: Vex prefers men. Personality: Vex is the epitome of that chill funny dude. He is cool and collected and making people laugh either because he is funny or his funny is so bad its funny, either way smiles make him smile. But when it comes to business that cool and collected comes in handy though he leaves the humor out of business when he knows it will only get him in trouble.
Rank: Ex-Military, now Shop Keeper/Black Market Entrepreneur. Occupation: He runs a little shop that specializes in herbal alternative medicines. And beyond the bookcase one of the leading black market hubs. Education:
Factions: Some would call him a terrorist or anarchist because of what he sells and to whom he sells it, but he prefers to call himself an open minded merchant.
Religion/Philosophy: No specific god or gods. He is spiritual and will many a times bless or curse the "gods" Political Ideals: Vex knows the government is corrupt and should be overthrown, but at the same time he knows the threat of the other global powers and what they would do if the USA would fall. He likes to think that there should be a board of people per country that work together to lead and global summits were regular happenings.
Biography: Vex was adopted not knowing he true heritage but when he looked in the mirror he looked pretty white but there was always something that could argue that fact. When he says adopted he means "adopted" meaning the s**t people who took him home took him home for the checks. So you could say his childhood was less than optimal. As soon as he could he signed on with the army and got a degree in medicine an then worked as a combat medic for a while until they picked him for some test trials with mind controlled cybernetics. He was one the the successful candidates in the testing. He got a mind controlled helper out of it so he wasn't too upset the nightmares weren't great though. Back into the fray he went with his new found tool and soon after his new found nickname, Yondu. One of the men in his squad was into comics and Vex's enhancement was a lot like Yondu's floating needle of death. Soon after his redeployment he and his squad were given some sketchy missions which he figured came from the very high ups and he found himself killing marks that looked a lot like innocents. His faith in his country kept him going, he convinced himself he was doing the right thing, "Its for the greater good"; he would tell himself. Then came the last mission of his career, they had to set chargers on an orphanage, go in kill their mark and then blow up the facility. It was too late to turn back and his squad pushed him through it threatening courts-martial if he refused. So he did it. But as they celebrated a mission complete he fled in the dark of night.
He returned home to the USA under a new name with new papers thanks to some contacts he made through his service. He set up an herbal shop and learned from some of the leading herbalist and alternative medicine leaders, and youtube, mostly youtube. But after a few years with his medical training and his new found training he was able to put up a pretty successful shop offering his talents and products to those in need. After while of peace and healing some of his old contacts contacted him, they were in trouble and needed an armed man to help them out with a deal, at first Vex rejected the plea until he offered a crazy amount of money, and though Vex was doing well his pro bono work wasn't paying bills, so he accepted and with that done with no trouble the contact offered him a job after hearing about his shop, and thus his black market dealings began at first small and harmless later he became on of the main markets in the area and his financial woes were long gone.
Skills: What Vex got out of his military service other than scars and nightmares was medical training, he was a combat medic, so the use of a scalpel and gun come easy, though he tends to stay away from guns. With his new career he has become proficient in herbal and alternative healings, he can give a wicked back rub.he relies on his cool headedness for his black market dealings the only real skill he needs for that is to keep up the front that hides his more illegal activities.
Transportation: He lives across the street from his shop so transport is not necessary but he has a motorcycle at hand if he has to go someplace. Home: He lives in his apartment across the street from his shop. (Actual location coming soon)
Likes: Kittens. A nice cup of tea. Comic books. ESports. Dislikes: Extra violence. Sweltering Heat. Spring. Bingo.
Weapons: He has access to a few guns, but mostly relies on wit or his enhancement. Clothing: What ever he throws on that day, prefers shorts and a long sleeve shirt. And then his shop apron. Powers: Floating device controlled by his mind.

Username: Galaxy CommanderName: Ryosuke NarigataAge: 32Gender: maleRace/Nationality/Species: American/Japanese though its rumored and he appears full blooded Japanese.Orientation: StraightPersonality: Ryosuke Narigata is a very serious kind of person. He is the cool military commander who walks down a line of fire and artillery shells giving orders without the slightest bit of worry. He is a military commander through and through, yet when it comes to his personal life he's as inexperienced and as fragile as a man can get.Rank: They call him the Colonel, in truth he is the leader of his organization and was a Colonel in the services. Occupation: Runs the Military group known as Akaken (Red Sword)Education: High end graduate of a military academy he barely actually went to. He did the tests and studied while at war and sent in the results making top marks every consecutive year. Factions: Akaken leader.Religion/Philosophy: Approaches the entire world and life as though it's a kill or be killed approach. Many people say the world is not yet at war that politics are on the fringe of breaking. The reality he sees has never been at peace. All the way down to a bully staking his locker and picking on the less fortunate kid and taking his lunch money. It's War! While on the most basic of levels life is a war since the day one was born. Political Ideals: Ryosuke Narigata is simple with his political stance. He supports those who support him. His group exists and is something of the modern day Spartans, Vikings, Samurai and Roman Legionnaires mixed into a single group. The Akaken are a large group of like minded individuals, they draw their origins from Navy Seals, Marines, Spetznaz, the SAS, Shayetet 13. And many other elite groups around the world. The group is a highly focused group that has several hidden establishments throughout the world and their own underground empire in which they have training grounds and many other establishments. Biography: Ryosuke grew up in Japan first. His mother married a Force Recon marine from the US. Before that though he had never fit in with others around him. Fighting from a young age against those who were out of his reach, Yakuza the JDF. Once in America for his High school years his educational level was beyond the students around him. The idea of a Japanese punk leader was virtually unheard of in American schools and he ran the school from the underground. His father however constantly beat sense into him and he later enlisted in the USMC. He became an officer and followed in the footsteps of his father. After he lost an eye during an incident in Somalia he was honorably discharged for medical reasons.
After getting out of the corps he found that the world rejected the heroes who sacrificed their lives for others. He took this more personally and began to look at the world as he did when he was younger and saw the truth that laid before him. The idea of peace and good times was an illusion written by the rich and ruling class. If he had to serve them he would do so in his own way, but he didn't go it alone. He gathered hundreds and even thousands of like minded individuals from all over the world. He found ways that weren't legal but still justified funded operations much more effectively than trying to go through legality, besides most of the world governments publicly spoke against such acts yet secretly funded groups to continue such acts and line their wallets. The Akaken was born. To most of the people who turn their nose up to such things such as gang activities and illegal activity and choose to remain ignorant of the true colors of the world they will never hear the name Akaken unless it comes up as a Mercenary group. After a few short years many other Veteran based mercenary groups Blackwater for example merged with Akaken.
Colonel Narigata demanded steep prices for the services rendered but he provided it to anyone willing to pay. So far to date the group has never failed any operation they've been put up for. They have ties to every criminal organization and government that has power in the world. Not in a sense that they have pull with everyone but they have done and still do services for pretty much all of them. Skills: The Colonel is a strategist, a Combatant, and a Very intelligent and straightforward approach to everything. Transportation: 1968 Dodge Charger And whatever else he needs a lot of military vehicles.Home: His House is currently in Tokyo, Japan. Likes: Weapons, vehicles, honor and when things go his wayDislikes: Anything and everything against him.Weapons: His weapons change all the time but he tends to use a tactical blade A barrette .50 calibur rifle that has been upgraded many times over. His tactical rifle is a hybrid FAL that was developed by his crew. Most of them use it as it has higher performance capacity than both the AK47 and the M16A4 or M4. He also usually has two of many variants of handguns on him.
His groups secret weapon is a specialized anti-armor bullet that is still in developmental phase but with high hopes it will make a standardized rifle able to shoot through heavy plated vehicle armor Clothing: He has a mix of styles, the business appeal of a Japanese businessman with a trench-coat. Then in combat however he wears the highest grade camouflage which back in 2015 was digital's however it has changed with time. Picture:
