[OOC] Metal Joe / Black Ops d20 Modern - FULL!

[DM_Matt]

Wraith...go for precise shot....you do NOT want to burst fire a comrade

Is there a public/underworld name for this group? As in, when high-profile missions are conducted, what is it referred to as. Or, when the baddies talk of this mysterious group that keeps kicking their @$$e$, what would we want them to refer to us as? It would be cool to have such a name.

Perhaps "Wrath of God" in some universal yet obscure language such as Latin. *

*This idea is based on an Israeli BlackOps team called M(sometihng or other) Elohim, Hebrew for Wrath of God. It was tasked with hunting down and killing the terrorist group Black September and their associates in retaliation for the 1972 Munich Olympic Games Massacre. It was disbanded when they illegally killed a civilian journalist in Moracco, altohugh by then they had pretty much accomplished thier mission anyway. They are one of the best publicly-known examples of government-sponsored BlackOps teams that go around the world hunting terrorists, and the name itself is just really cool and intimidating.

BACKGROUND & DESCRIPTION ????




NASTY!

If there is anything in there our DM has a problem with, please let me know.

A few questions:

1. What about Thermal Vision?

2. The PDA Gauntlet. This is something I have been hearing about as a possability of the future of PDAs. Basicly it is a PDA built into a kind of armored glove that extends up the forearm. This cool?

3. Fiber Optic Peeper. One of these was used in the movie "The Rock" and a few others. It is basicly a fiber optic cable that you can run under door or grates and see what is on the other side. it's kind of like a small, bendable, perescope. This cool?

4. 40 mm undermounted grenade launcher. I've got this mounted on my MP5. While you don't normally see these, it is possible in real life. Cool?

5. Garrote Wire. there are stats for this in Song and Silence. i can post them if you need me to.

6. Suppressor on the MP5. It says in the book that the suppressor isn't very effective on longarms. However, this particular weapon, in real life, when suppressed, is the quietest gun that there is. The sound of the action is actually louder than the bullet. Will this be in the game, or will we be sticking 100% to the book?

Background
A shy unassuming man, it's hard to imagine Gerrard being a member of an elite counter terroist team. In a way neither can he. Looking back on his records, you'll see he graduated near the top of his class in college, and at the acdemy. He moved rapidly through the ranks based on his technical abilities. Though he is the team's designated pilot, Gerrard also can back up a lot of the others, due to his wide ranging skills. Even after this long in the service, Gerrard still isn't that great of a shot, barely qualifying during range testing, he is slowly improving however. When not on duty, Gerrard spends most of his time working on his motorcycle or keeping up on new advances in electronics.

Edit ---> 1. 12/11 6 am, Decided on which watercraft to start with for surface vehicle feat.

Edit ---> 2/ 12/11 6:15 am, Added equipment and background.

Kitana - Kai Nguyen, 'Black Wolf' : Sniper/Computer Expert ie: FAST/SMART Heroine

It looks like we've got everything covered, aside from heavy weapons, translator, and driver. Those could all be secondary skills.

Also it would be a good idea for a couple more characters to have some kind of medic ability as a backup.

Okay, I'll give her at least four to five languages so she can translate most of what we run across. Perhaps one of the others who are smart or charismatic leaders or spies could come up with more languages.

This is sounding more and more interesting! I can't wait for it to start.

 

[garyh]

Solid Snake Eyes is amusing, but I'm not sure if I can use that and keep a straight face. I actually wish I'd have thought of Wraith - that'd be perfect!! Ah well... gotta keep thinking.

Oh, I currently have my PC speaking Russian and Arabic, but if too many have those languages, he could switch them for others... probably Japanese and Chinese.

I'll have his stats up this afternoon.

EDIT: I think I will switch to Japanese and Chinese.

Oh, and if you can find a link to that code name generator, that'd be awesome!!

 

[garyh]

Going with the Japanese language theme, my PC might just end up with Arashikage for a last name and be related to an ancient clan of Ninjas, if that isn't going too far.

Thoughts?

Fine with me. Just note that the same Arashikage's do not necessarily exist. You do get the neat tattoo though

Oh, and I wasn't serious about Solid Snake Eyes...I think it's a little too silly for this also!

Oh

I should point out that there are two main Chinese languages, Mandarin and Cantonese, so perhaps you should specify which one it is you know since they both are very very different. And it will make a big difference if we end up messing with the Chinese groups.

I don't have the book with me at work, so I'm not sure how they handle stuff like when languages are concerned.
