Nation Name:Selrahc
Name:Thomas Drow
Code Name:Voodoo
Age:32
Gender:Male
Weapons:Assault Rifle, Pistol, Detonation Packs, Knife, EMP Grenade
Equipment: Heavy Non-Power Armor, Suppressors for both guns, Combat Medical gear
Clothing: Heavy Non-Power Armor, with typical Military clothing underneath.
Skills:Zero-Gravity Combat, Night fighting, hand to hand, limited combat medical practice, limited mechanics, stealth demolition.
Appearance:
Personality:Quiet, prefers actions to words, and makes plenty of actions. He is often considered cold and calculating, risking everything and anyone to accomplish the task at hand.
Background:Born to a poor miner on Titan, Tom grew up knowing suffering. His family could rarely afford what it needed, and they lived in massive debt. Tom was bullied and harassed in school, and wasn't expected to go far when he enlisted in the FAF.
All of that changed when one of Tom's former bullies went to lead an insurrection and attempted to kill a senator. Tom disobeyed orders to stay put, charging at the man before he could shoot the senator, which resulted in both men crashing through a window, twenty stories high. Tom reportedly shot the would-be assassin mid air, And grabbed hold of a ledge which saved him from falling, but dislocated his arm. He then saw the rebel leader, his former bully, running away from the scene, so he shot him while still holding on to the ledge.
He was quickly promoted even though he was threatened with court martial. He eventually proved he had what it took to be a talon.

Consider me curious, at least- I'll definitely be snooping around lurkily in the IC with a premise like that.
I might make an app; not proficient with FT-military fiction, though.

Hehe. Yeah. No doubt everyone has got their own opinions on what is gonna happen when we make planetfall. =D

As for the military SF part. Meh. I like it, but this more about the mystery/horror side of it than the shoot-em-up part. I'm going to be very brutal with these guys.

[Sil Arion]

Well, this has certainly caught my interest! I'll likely have an app up at some point, but a quick question first: what's the tech like? Are their cybernetics, augments, implants, etc.? Railguns/linear weaponry, lasers/plasma-fusion/directed energy weaponry, monomolecular blades, etc.? I would just like to know what tools I have to play around with first.

Okay. Basically, the tech is kinda like that of Halo or something akin to that. Cybernetics/augments, implants and all that crap is in abundance, but regulated by the government and kept in the hands of the military. After all, no one wants a populace with implants that gives them the strength of ten men. Railguns and other linear weaponry does exist but humanity found it was easier and cheaper to still produce gunpowder-based projectile weaponry. Now, those same guns are incredibly powerful and fire far larger calibers than they used to. Directed energy weapons, in the case of infantry, is more used against armor. Monomolecular blades also do exist.

Oooh. Can I use those blade thingies?

Wonderful! Knowing our "elite" status, are we allowed access to high-tier armaments and armours, especially the augmentative implants and such given our profession and experience? Perhaps, i.e., alike to the Spartans and MJOLNIR Armour Series from Halo, or similar soldiers and suits in other related media?

Regardless, I'll likely have an app up within the next day or two along whatever guidelines you lay out, but it might be a bit since I'm quite busy currently. Until then, cheers as always.

The Talons, like other SO's in the FAF, have access to virtually anything the FAF has, as well as experimental weapons and armor. I wouldn't go so far as to say they're like the Spartans from HALO, but their armor would be just as advanced. But remember, the Talons are more a stick-a-knife-in-your-back than the full frontal assault guys.

[Moarfall]

Will post app soon

[Skaldia]

Will post app soon

Great!

[Yanalia]

Could I add smoke and flash grenades to my equipment?

Also, is there some sort of standard equipment in the armor, like infrared vision for example, or does that need to be specified as well?

Sure.

And, if you are going to wear armor, the Helm Display is going to come with a multiple field of vision sensor.

I need to wear it for the active camo, so sounds good.

Yikes. Reading the molecular blade/Halo talk proves that military SF isn't my field. (yes, I haven't played or read Halo at all...)
I know! I could be the nervous janitor or mechanic that gets sent down by accident protected with nothing but character shielding!

A member of the Talons doesn't always have to be the standard military type. They can be a combat engineer or even better, the medic.

Perhaps I might make an engineer. Hm.
Anyway, just spotted another very freeform thread of yours that I'm almost definitely going to join. My creativity's a bit weird when I'm tired...

Hehe. Glad to have you aboard both than.

Alright, when is the game beginning?

We still need one more person to make a character and then I will consider making the IC.
