These details are important!

I totally have a logical and completely normal reason for knowing all this obscure trivia about various science fiction series and video games.

And if you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you.

We're preparing for when the Celestial Toymaker has his reckoning.

From a word to a word I was led to a word,
From a work to a work I was led to a work."

I enjoy meta-humor and self-deprecation. Annoying, right?

Bah, I'm the biggest nerd in F7.

Tell me the name of any dinosaur.

Excuse me, sir. Seeing as how the V.P. is such a V.I.P., shouldn't we keep the P.C. on the Q.T.? 'Cause if it leaks to the V.C. he could end up M.I.A., and then we'd all be put out in K.P.

('scuse the DP: this is totally irrelevant to my last post and is directed at someone, not a random joke)

Yeah, Ende: since I'm Co-OP for (effectively) the position of adviser on military shits-'n-giggles, send me any stuff you want me to take a look at and I'll do so.

I can easily (and am not limited to) research or make (quite well) educated guesses on things like...
- The tech needed to kill certain enemies (e.g. 5.56x45 NATO carried by me could penetrate and kill an Sontaran - clinically proven thanks to tests at the ATMOS factory!)
- The proportional responses for each possible incursion (Sontaran Stratagem is about right, if a little under-armed in the vehicle dept.)
- Possible locations of targets
- Probable load-outs and kit of any non-UNIT (or even UNIT) forces not controlled by us.
- Formations the British Army would be using.
- Which units would be deployed to support us (e.g. in a surveillance role we may get some SRR people or agents of The Security Service. If we were doing a 'Battlefield' mission (I think it's Battlefield, w/ the nuclear convoy) we'd have the SEG and RM 43 FPG along side)
- etc. etc.

So, yeah, feel free to send me anything you want my consultation or thoughts on. I'll also sit here and send angry thoughts at anyone who does unprofessional military thingummys, but not say it out-loud since I'll look like a right tosser...


Oh, also I'm editing my entrance post since somethings don't tie in with my app. If anyone had problems with it, they'll possibly be sorted shortly.

Name: Rafaela Cruz
Gender: Female
Age: 29
Rank: Civilian
Appearance: Picture
Weapon of Choice: Heckler & Kock HK45 pistol
Height: 170cm
Weight: 55kg
Biography: Rafaela was born in Rio de Janeiro. Her father was a well-known lawyer and her mother was a police delegate, thus she always led a very comfortable life. Following both her parents' footsteps, at the age of 17 she began attending one of the most prestigious and expensive law schools in Rio, graduating with honors 5 years later. But, like her mother, she had a passion for law enforcement, and thus she took the test to join the Brazilian Federal Police. Due to her excellent education, she was admitted, and, at the age of 22, she was the youngest agent of her class.

She was initially assigned to administrative duties, but she wanted to be more involved into the real operations, and, after a year, she finally made it into an operational task force.

A few years later she was part of a team investigating a group of drug runners, smuggling drugs into Brazil through the largely unguarded Amazon borders. They used a network of largely unknown tunnels dug deep into the forest by an ancient people. A few months after her team started watching a known member of the drug ring, the Federal Police discovered they were planning on entering a new business, the sale of a few arctifacts taken from those same old tunnels they had discovered in the forest.

Once the team reported their findings, and that they were planning on removing at least one arctifact, which bore striking resemblance to a sarcophagus, the Ministry of Justice ordered them to immediately cease their surveillance without any explanation. Rafaela and another agent, however, decided to keep following the members of the smugglers' ring despite their orders.

Surprisingly, before they could begin their clandestine excavations at the tunnels, one by one the group was killed, in anything from freaky accidents to muggings. The man they were following was quickly killed by an alleged mugger in São Paulo, but Rafaela and her colleague were waiting. After a long pursuit and shootout, they, with the support of the São Paulo police, managed to arrest the murderer.

Before they could even question the man, however, a group of military officers came and took the man into their custody.

Two days after, Rafaela's colleague was killed in a traffic accident, a coincidence that she did not accept. She became paranoid, as she was certain she would also be killed, though she did not knew exactly why. One day, as she left the Federal Police building in Rio, she noticed a motorcycle following her. As she stopped in a red light, the motorcycle came up to her car and the bike passenger opened fire against her car with a micro Uzi. She survived the first shots, however, and, by opening her car door against the bike, she managed to bring the two occupants down onto the street. She shot and killed the armed man and took the motorcycle driver into custody. This time, however, two men from the Brazilian intelligence agency came to find her at the police station. They knew she was going to cause them trouble, so they decided to bring her into the loop.

The smugglers, who, she found out, had been taken out by ABIN agents, had acquired evidence of extraterrestrial life, in the form of the mummified remains of several ETs, by exploring the large tunnel system under the Amazon which they used to hide from the Brazilian Air Force border surveillance aircraft, and were preparing to sell that evidence to the highest bidder, with no consideration for the consequences. The Brazilian government was already aware of the existance of extraterrestrial beings for a long time, having acquired important information during "Operation Dish", carried out by the Brazilian military on the late 70s. Ever since then they had been cooperating with several international organisms to keep Earth safe from extraterrestrial threats.

After telling her all that they gave her two choices. Either she could cooperate with the government she swore to serve as a Federal Police officer, or she would be discredited and arrested as a maniac, and her life would be destroyed. She decided to cooperate. Given her education background and her fluent English and French skills, the ABIN directors decided to send her as sort of a liaison agent to UNIT.

At UNIT she was assigned to take care of investigative and support tasks, aside from her liaison function with the Brazilian government.

In, of course. I can handle one more person.

When would you like to arrive? Would you like to arrive with Harper and Pedro, or come in on the second mission (which we should get to in about three days)?

Not really, actually.

Let me explain. Kouralia could edit his post so you were there with Harper and Pedro the whole time.

Harper and Pedro are jumping into the middle of the story. You can jump with them and nothing bad will happen.

Let me explain something real quick.

The Squad is split into two parts. John is the commander of the entire squad, but he serves as the leader of Squad A.

Squad A:
John Jenkins (commander)
Johann Steele (second in command of Squad A)
Jack Flint
Jason Knight
Logan (Bishop)
Zhu De
Jon
Harper
Yasu

Squad B:
The Lieutenant Colonel (captain)
Greene (second in command of Squad B)
Kira
Nikolai
Trudi
Gur'obbf
Andrew
Pedro Ignacio
Ramon

Would you like to join Squad A or Squad B?

I think you would be better in Squad B.
