[Recruiting Alternates Only] 4F for Freedom!

[Synchronicity]

I'd be interested, if that's OK. The idea I'm currently kicking around is a pretty straightforward brick. No bells, no whistles:just two fists like ham hocks and a will to use 'em.

I was curious, though; could people be exempt from military service if they were doing a job the country needed? Since I had the idea of a manual labourer of some sort, it's possible he could be helping to build tanks/ships/insert useful wartime item here.

If that's not enough to exempt him from service, then I'm thinking a criminal record would work: he could have done jobs for the Mob on a few occasions as a leg-breaker and muscle man (you don't say no to the Mob), and could have done time for them. Of course, that was *before* he realised his superhuman abilities. Failing that, there's the good old alcohol fuelled temper excuse. I'm open to your preferences on this.

Cheers,
Synchronicity.

Generally for men, there would have been some other disqualification as well, unless the man in question had critical skills not easily replaced. A welder on an assembly line, for example, could be more easily replaced than an engineer. That being said, there is nothing definitely problematic with a criminal background for your hero.

Write him up and email him my way.

Well, it tells me that the e-mail function's been disabled by the administrator, and I can't used Private Messages because I haven't donated money. This leaves me a bit stumped; I've got the character written up, backstory and all, I just need a way to get him to you! Have any ideas?

Email function's been disabled? Of all the nerve!

Well, I guess I could just list my email address: mchance3@houston.rr.com

An update: I've received Synchronicity's character. Looks good to me.

Regarding alternates: Not only would alternates be the first people allowed into the game in the event I lose a player or decide to expand the team, I also want to let alternates have a hand running villains during fights.

 

[Synchronicity]

Cool! I'm looking forward to this...

Velmont:

I received your character. Looks good!

Two down; two to go.

2, Karl:

Welcome aboard! Please remember to email your characters/concepts directly to me rather than posting them on-line.

Sorry for slow reply...what's your email? (the function is turned off), I am almost done with my character and will shot him to you in a bit here

 

[Karl Green]

Ah there it is... should have keep reading

Anyway I will send it in 10 or 15 minutes (question, do you have Excel? I can send it to you in Dan Simpson's sheet style; if you don't I will write it out)

 

[Karl Green]

Mark could you see the characters I send you this time? I am leaning more towards the second one I sent you but only if there is not another type of character like that in the group. Anyway, hope you got them...
