[up]Yeah I'll make sure it doesn't conflict with any of your plans too.

UPDATE: You can now design your own Metal Gear for Striker to fight. Check original post.

Get your profiles in, we'll be starting soon.

Probably.

Sounds interesting. Here's my profile, let me know if it needs any work.

  • Code name/Alias: Dallas Blazer
  • Age: 25
  • Gender: Male
  • Personality: He's a very cheerful and talkative guy, which can prove disturbing when he tries to have friendly chats with his enemies in-combat. He loves fighting, as he sees it as a sort of "game", albeit one where he kills his opponents for real. He's very loyal to those that he serves, whether his country, formerly, or now Madnar.
  • Appearance: He's a stocky man and is about 6' tall. He has short black hair and bright blue eyes. He wears a long black cloak when not in combat, saying it looks "cool". Under the cloak, he wears a heavy gray vest to which he straps his weapons and dark pants. Both of these pieces of clothing have many pockets. He also has a pair of dark red sunglasses that he usually wears.
  • Nationality: German
  • Allegiance: New Zanzibar
  • Weapons: He specializes in light machine guns. He mainly uses dual FN P90's (Doug and Betsy). He also carries a Bowie knife.
  • Power/Special skill: Somehow, he is deadly accurate with automatic guns while at the same time useless with anything that can't be fired automatically, such as pistols. He finds nothing strange about this.
  • History: "Dallas" joined the German military early in his life, as he had always had a fascination with guns. When his proficiency with automatic weapons was discovered, as well as his killing ability, he worked his way into the country's special ops. During the War, his entire team was wiped out and he was pinned down by enemy forces. Madnar found him on that battlefield, surrounded by many dead enemies, and offered him a position at New Zanzibar. He gladly accepted, abandoning his loyalties to his country and replacing them with loyalty towards Madnar.

Seems good, except for a few things. Can you make his history longer, and how he met Madnar? Also, how is your posting timeframe, because if you can post often I might make him my dragon.

So far, we have 3 New Zanzibar mercenaries. This is cool

OK you can now have two characters in the RP. Max is 2, for now. Minor characters like the FRO Gs or maybe even a scientist do not count.

Just use your own common sense.

Your second character can only be a position we haven't filled yet, and needs to be someone of a different organisation.

You can be Philanthropy and a cyborg ninja, or New Zanzibar and a cyborg ninja, but you cannot have two New Zanzibar characters.

I think I may start it on the weekend, and if not, Monday.

I've not really done a RP before, so I'd rather stick with one character. Sorry :D

Made a Cyborg Ninja for my second character.

  • Code name/Alias: Jet Steel
  • Age: Unknown
  • Gender: Unknown
  • Personality: Appears to be mentally imbalanced and often can be heard arguing with a "Rex".
  • Appearance: Has a silvery-blue, sleek exoskeleton with an all-red mask. The mask has green lights on it that function as optics. There are thin white stripes along the arms and legs. The shoulders are golden and have a pair of crossed red blades emblazoned on them.
  • Nationality: Unknown
  • Allegiance: Cyborg Ninja
  • Weapons: A black katana with a gray hilt.
  • Power/Special skill: Can deflect bullets with blade and is very fast.
  • History: Has been seen killing people in various countries, including Canada, Greece, and Prague; seemingly has no limits in terms of range. Despite occasionally being seen in the process of murder, has never been caught by the authorities. Apparent victims are sometimes found to have criminal records, but others seem completely innocent. Motives remain unclear, as the targets seem completely unrelated, ranging from businessmen to veterans to priests. One can never pinpoint who the next target is, or where the attack will be...

I have an idea for a New Zanzibar character, all I need is a motivation for joining after her boyfriend died on a mission.

[up]Make it so that he was sent on a mission of peace (You know, to settle a dispute or something) and was killed. Either that, or make him a medic that was shot while helping people. If it wasn't for the war ending, HE WOULD NEVER HAVE DIED!!!

We haven't had a flamethrower wielder yet...

[up]Oh, right yeah. OK then, you can make her New Zanzibar. However, if there's a boss fight, it means yu'll be fighting yourself. You OK with that?

@Firebert, the profile is alright. You're in.

Here is my new profile for the person in charge. Since I'm GM, I think it should be alright. I need approval from someone else for this profile though. Anyone.

  • Code name/Alias: Apollo
  • Real Name: Adam Kindle
  • Age: 39
  • Gender: Male
  • Personality: Very strict but fair in his judgements. Prefers strategy to brute force, and has a calm, controlled mindset. His experience of tense situations means he can cope under pressure. *Hates rudeness in all forms.
  • Appearance: An imposing figure, very tall and lean with a focus on muscle. He's described as having a 'face set in stone', with strong large hands and blue eyes. He is wearing a tailored suit with a yellow and grey camoflouge pattern; as if for desert warfare. His hair is neat, black and is cut tidily.
  • Nationality: American/English.
  • Allegiance: Philanthropy
  • Weapons: An assortment of knives.
  • Power/Special skill: Trained in a variety of martial arts, including three styles of knife fighting.
  • History: Before and during the war, he fought on both sides of the Atlantic, supporting the American Army then the English soldiers. He spent time as a liason between them and the Marines/Navy, earning a lot of respect and connections; these came in useful during the war. He entered the battle as a Corporal, but after he and only three members of his team took down a terrorist insurgency based in London, he was promoted quickly through the ranks, finally joining Philanthropy as he became a General. Although a soldier, he knows war provides senseless death, which he hates, and so is all for the peace.
  • Miscellaneous: The person in charge of the mission.

I'm ok with fighting myself. If everyone else is ok with that, that is. I had a twist planned when they meet up.

Edit: And here she is!

  • Code name/Alias: Red Alert
  • Gender: Female
  • Real Name: She’s only revealed her real name to Madnar. To everyone else, she’s knows as “Red”
  • Age: 26
  • Appearance: Red is about 5’6”. She has red hair, green eyes, and fair skin. Her outfit is a tight-fitting flame retardant suit. In battle, uses a flame-retardant mask to completely cover her face.
  • Nationality: American (United States)
  • Allegiance: New Zanzibar
  • Weapons: She carries a 9mm Baretta on her person. See Misc. for her main weapon.
  • Power/Special skill: She’s a IT specialist and an excellent hacker.
  • History: “Red” was a Navy brat who lived all over the United States. During high school, she connected with a young man who she kept in close contact with (phone calls, email, handwritten letters, etc.), even through his attending West Point (She could see him and catch up at the football games) and her enlisting in the Navy, where she specialized in intelligence gathering and recon tech. A few years later, the letters, emails, and phone calls stopped coming. She contacted his parents, who informed her that he had been KIA, but that his body has never been recovered. She was devastated. She began using the Navy’s technology to try to find him, to no avail. She was subsequently discharged (Dishonorable) for using government technology for personal purposes. Undeterred from her mission, she joined up with New Zanzibar a short time later.
  • Personality: She’s known to be mostly stoic. Bringing up the subject of her missing/dead boyfriend is a Berserk Button for her. She is generally civil to her comrades, but doesn’t hold any of them in high regard, except Madnar, who lured her to New Zanzibar with promises of giving her unlimited access of his resources to find her boyfriend. She is wholly devoted to him and his cause for this reason.
  • Misc: Her main weapon is a 13' mech
    • Name: Metal Gear TX-90 - "Firebug"
    • Who Made it: New Zanzibar utilizing Arms Tech/DARPA/LNL plans.
    • Weapons: It has no nuclear capabilities, but it could theoretically be modified for such. Instead, it's armament is:
      • Main: Side-mounted flamethrowers. It utilizes combustible gel.
      • Secondary: Top-mounted, semi-automatic .50 caliber cannon
    • Brief appearance: Based on the Metal Gear Rex design.
    • Auto or Piloted: Piloted by Red Alert
