Vice: 2120 (OOC/Sign-Ups) Accepting

[Imperialisium]

Name: Victoria Lloyd
Age: 21
Face Claim:

(Image)

Appearance: Victoria is quite tall, standing at 6 foot 4 inches tall. She cuts quite a feminine figure, though she is also quite muscular thanks to a rather brutal upbringing. She wears her blonde hair close-cut, either in a 'pixie' cut fashion, or otherwise short fashions. She has various scars across her body, and a tattoo on the back of her left shoulder of a skull with crossed rifles beneath.
Personality: Victoria can be quite outgoing, she enjoys life and every once in a while enjoys a good, heavy party, and she'll never pass on a drink, though she is smart enough to not get hammered, as that could and would often lead to death or injury back in her neighborhood. However she is also quite brunt and can be outright aggressive at times, usually happier to settle things with fists then words.

Specialization: Hand to hand fighting, firearms

Cybernetics: None

Family Background: Nothing spectacular, typical Caucasian family. Her family immigrated from the Eastern US when West Coast states were declared a Super-Municipality in the 2020s.
Personal History: Victoria had a very rough childhood, living in a rather poor and violent neighborhood. She lived alone with her mother, her father having died shortly after her birth. She was mostly home schooled by her mother, more out of necessity then desire, as it wasn't always safe to travel to or stay in the local schools, though the times that there was a relative peace in the neighborhood she would be sent to school, where most were surprised to find she was a natural learner, with a keen and sharp mind. However even with this, Victoria mostly ended up running with the local kids in street gangs, nothing too heavy, mostly just gangs of kids getting into fights with gangs of kids from other neighborhoods.

She learned early that where she lived might made right, and as she grew older and her body began to develop and mature, this fact was reinforced, and she made damn sure to be able to fend for herself in case she had too, and there were several times she did. Even in all the chaos of her life, Victoria did brave the streets and gangs to travel to a nearby Mega Block that offered a free library, where she devoured the books that were available.

With her mind, looks, strength, and general situation Victoria was sure she would end up in one gang or another and that would be her life, however short it would turn out to be, but when she was fifteen her mother was severely hurt and crippled. A long lost uncle showed up at the hospital, surprised to find he had a niece, and insisted on having them move in with his family, after all he lived comfortably enough as an engineer employed by the state. With little real options, Victoria ended up agreeing, and while getting to know the extended family she had never known existed, her uncle pulled some favors and got her tested for the Academy. To her own surprise she was admitted pretty readily.

Once in the Academy she seemed to excel, especially in physical aspects, and her childhood and teen years of fighting seemed to give her an edge over those who hadn't had such a rough upbringing. It was also at the Academy that really saw her mental prowess take off, becoming a highly ranked academic student and memorizing almost the entirety of the Lex Pacifica, though her physical abilities remained her primary strong suite, themselves also expanding considerably with the Academy's diet and strict physical regimens, which she happily embraced regardless of how grueling they were.

Additional Information:
She is a highly skilled fighter, and has a fighting grace most wouldn't think she possessed, as she almost always seems to be able to win her fights with brute force and shock.
She is quite proficient in firearms, especially with the Mark III Lawman sidearm.
Victoria is also armed with the Armat Battlefield Systems Peacemaker Series 2119 combat shotgun.
Victoria is a developing psychic, though she is totally clueless to this development.

Is there scope for a police helicopter pilot analog? Some kind of futuristic flying vehicle, which provides transport, evacuation, surveillance, resupply, and (limited) air support. It/he would serve the other characters, as requested. If this breaks the game mechanics, or goes against the cyberpunk vision, then I understand.

There can be a pilot specialist analogue. However, my concern would be you not getting side lined for durations of the IC as players are on the ground or not using any form of aircraft for a particular segment.

No worries. My other idea was infiltration. Basically, the military old guard doesn't trust the inspectorate, for obvious reasons (rivalry, politics, power.) So, they infiltrate it with their people. Originally, to gather intelligence. However, since then, their motives have become darker (those in command plot a coup.) Anyway, my character would be a military plant. He doesn't know the big picture, but he does receive secret orders periodically. So, dual loyality. The coup attempt could be a plot point - but it also might stay in the background; whatever works. Penny for your thoughts?

Name: Cainen Anuel
Age: 27
Face Claim:

Appearance: 6'2. Athletic build.
Personality: A cynical goof. Cainen uses sarcasm or humor to mask intellectual jousts and zealously observes those around him. Almost socially darwinistic, Cainen has no interest in individuals below his self percieved 'status' and groups them all together as sheep. Granted a foundational stone of his psyche is 'not to make the smart person mistake of thinking nobody is smarter than you', Cainen simply ignores serious reaction once he determines an 'opponent' unworthy. His demeanor is very 'gangster' like given his upbringing, however his ability to change face is a talent and from the outside looking in almost appears bi-polar in nature. Nonchalant but calculative, joking then snappy, subordinate but uncaring.

Specialization: Sabotage and Subversion.

Cybernetics: H-18 Retinal Tracker implant (left): Assists in tracking and targeting while improving visual acquity. Consisting of micro-sensors implanted directly behind the user's retinas and a small targeting computer at the base of the skull, the H-18 overlays a targeting reticule within the user's field of vision inclusive of an Infa-red overlay if prompted, and, though not infallible, increases accuracy on precision shots or on multiple targets.

Valkyrie Mk. 2 Leg Augmentations (Both legs): Nanocarbon Dilitant Composite Cybernetic Leg Prosthesis, they are augmented artificial limbs built on a framework of advanced polymers and lightweight metals. In place of an organic musculature, these augmentations utilize 'myomers'-bunches of electro-stimulated plastic cables that mimic the actions of muscle tissues, but to a greatly strengthened degree. Shock-absorbing liquid polymer buffers, these cyberlimbs are capable of far exceeding human physical attribute- Jumping, sprinting, striking, landing. The design of the Valkyrie prosthesis yields little no discernable inconvenience to sound of the subject.

Family Background: Cainen is a mix of Latin and Asiatic although aside from direct family, a clear trace of ethnicity isn't plausible without specialist assistance.

Personal History: Cainen is a Los angeles Native, born and raised in "4 flats" or historical Cautro flats of LA.
Poverty stricken childhood that was rife with gangs and survival, Cainen became acquainted with the 'wolf eat dog' nature that exists in today's society. Family life was difficult and turbulent for a youth growing up in the inner city and naturally molded and shaped his perceptions early on. A family of a 5, raised by a single mother and absent father, Gang law and mentorship paved much of Cainen's childhood up until a major turning point where his mother married a judiciary officer.

Interaction and eventual affection of this new role model yielded drastic changes, understandings that were wholly accepted. Order via 'checks and balances'. Doing something and being rewarded for such behavior. Cainen came to idolise his step father and against the whims of his peers began to emulate his step father's characteristics. Even going as far as being adopted by the man. A pivotal point of reference dawned on Cainen that his step father, whom also grew up poor, had enlisted into the military complex and attained his demeanor and habits from the armed forces. Emulation is the purest form of admiration, and Cainen found himself enlisting into the military at the age of 19.

In the span of almost 8 years, Cainen's mother fell into addiction, his step father and mother murdered at the hands of the rival gang members not of 4 flats, his family split apart by the system and lost within the city, and of course injuries suffered while serving the oligarchs of the corporate world that funded the military complex. Revelations were bitter sweet. Reparations for his service paid for by military during his service, his work ethic and functionality as a loyal tool earned him silver lined rewards. Cainen's silence need not be bought, the atrocities and marginalization of human lives fell far second to his own bitterness and ambition.

He then found himself at the academy.

Additional Information: Cainen participated in COIN operstions and informations while serving within the mikitary complex. Going abroad and supplementing the iron fist authoritarianism of the corporate oligarchy and suppressing the oponents of the 'status quo'. In that same tenure, Cainen participated fully in mind and body in the art of Cordon and search, consigning himself to constant conditioning and training. Prior to his injuries, Cainen competed faithfully in the military's competetive circle and is highly proficient and decorated in mixed martial arts, specializing in jiu jitsu and Muay thai. His prosthetic replacements making the latter even more lethal.

Name:
Arg Oilerman
Age:
19
Face claim:
Shia LaBeouf watching Shia LaBeouf.
Appearance:
Hair like raven feathers, dark and askew, with continuous preening. Honey skin, covered in thumb prints and smears, from perma-oil tinkering. Eyes bright with last gen nanotech, florescent greens in the iris. A scraggly beard, curls packed with cinnamon, thanks to gene editing. Physically, short and stout, muscles cordlike.
Personality:
Calm, controlled, but eager to serve, even overeager.
Specialization:
Interrogation.
Cybernetics:
Last generation eye augments. They can do the basics, like thermal imaging.
Family background:
Traditional family, oriented around service to the state. Father was an arbitrator who was killed in the line of duty, when Arg was young. Uncle is a retired navy captain, who took Arg under his wing. Mother is a mechanic, maintaining municipal vehicles.
Personal history:
Arg’s childhood was a busy one, always helping his mother with her work. His father’s memory loomed large, pushing him onward, to achievement and conformity. Summers were spent at his uncle’s, who fed him stories of adventure and obligation. Arg wished to follow in his father’s footsteps, and become an arbitrator. However, his uncle showed him another destiny, with the inspectorate.
Additional information:
Arg flourished at the Academy of Law. A lifetime of obedience prepared him well for rote memorization, casual brutality, and hierarchical tasks. Moreover, his mechanical aptitude earned him respect from those instructors who favored extended patrols, where autonomy was everything. Their penchant for field interrogations rubbed off on Arg, who promptly specialized in interrogation.

[Sweillia]

Name: Felix Bernhardt

Age: 25

Appearance: Felix's face is severely burned and disfigured. He wears a metal mask to cover these injuries. Other parts of his body, particularly on his right side are also covered in some level of burn scar tissue. He is 5'11'', but claims to be 6' when asked about it. Felix is rather slim, and not particularly muscular. His eyes are a light shade of blue. Felix lacks any significant hair on his scalp, but this is not seen from under his mask which has a piece of dark cloth attached to it that covers the rest of his head.

Personality: Felix has a rather dour outlook on life; he has accepted that the brutality of the system is the only way that Pacifica can survive, even if he wishes there was another way. He does his best to be approachable but this pessimism can make that difficult. Felix goes over pretty much anything he does multiple times to ensure it is just right, to the point that it can impact his speed at completing tasks.

Specialization: Drug-oriented investigation, using firearms

Cybernetics: Prosthetic NF-8 Right Arm, prosthetic H-1G Right Leg

Family Background: The Bernhardt family operates a moderately successful chemicals production company, aptly named the Bernhardt Chemicals Corporation. BernhardtCC was founded by Felix's, now deceased, grandfather. The family would most fit into the upper middle class category. They have lived in the territories that became Pacifica for generations.

Personal History: As his family's second child, Felix was not expected to inherit leadership over BernhardtCC. Despite this, he still wanted to help the business, even at a young age. He had a great interest in the sciences, and specifically chemistry, pursuing these subjects in much of his free time. However, in his late teens he fell in with a seedy group, which, amongst a lot of teen angst, culminated in him putting his chemistry expertise towards manufacturing illicit substances for these friends to sell. Of course it was very low-scale, limited by their lack of resources and so was not enough to satisfy his ego. To make up for this he extensively experimented with creating new drugs and new drug combinations. This continued for some years and eventually ended in disaster when one such experiment got out of hand, his 'lab' burned down with him inside it. As it was a rundown shack in a slum, the whole thing collapsed also.

It was thanks to this event that Felix lost his right arm and leg due to them being crushed by debris, and his face was scarred. His family bribed the local Sector Precinct to look the other way regarding their son's involvement in the lab. They also paid for the expensive prosthetics that replaced his lost limbs, which almost ruined them financially. Felix's long recovery gave him plenty of time to reconsider how he had spent the past years, how he had turned his back on his family, and that despite that they were still there for him. He reached a conclusion: he would abandon that life, cut all ties from his friends turned-business associates, and would return to helping his family. He refused the largely cosmetic facial reconstruction surgery, to spare his family the large bill, but also so that he could never forget the damage he caused them.

However, working at BernhardtCC felt to him like the bare minimum, and no where near enough to pay for his sins. Felix decided to put his extensive knowledge of the drug trade to good use for a higher purpose, and volunteered to join the inspectorate.

Additional Information: Addicted to nicotine (or the closest equivalent that Pacifica has to offer)

Name: John Marcus

Age: Twenty-Eight

Face Claim:

Appearance: At 5’10” and 160 pounds, John is not particularly outstanding physically. While meeting the considerable fitness standards of the Judiciary, John passed physical examination with scores in the bottom decile of passing participants. His vision was rated 20/12, which qualified him for sharpshooter training, though such training was not pursued at his own preference. His blonde hair is often unkempt, usually to his own chagrin, though his hygiene is abnormally above average for Pacifica citizens which causes him to stick out.

Personality: A consummate perfectionist, John was quickly labelled as “Narcissistic but Driven” in his early education. This label was very accurate, John regularly seeking to demonstrate his abilities both for his own prestige and to sate his own ego. He conveys information as tightly as he can typically, often using very dense word choice to get his points across. He is extroverted, usually glad to engage in small talk, but will often escalate it into talking about other subjects. He is energetic, often chattering to himself to take off edge and focus when under pressure. He responds well to authority, and has a rigid sense of discipline and orderliness.

Specialization: Computers (Signal Analysis and Decryption), Drone Operation (Both Surveillance and Combat model Certified), Surveillance (Electronic and Physical)

Cybernetics: Mk. XXVII Datajack implanted at base of skull between second and third cervical vertebrae installed with universal MMI uplink node

Family Background: The Marcus family is a small but prominent family native to the Seattle area, once plant managers at the Boeing Everett factory, they have since become wealthy landlords in the Seattle-Bellevue Sector. Their status has not earned them much respect, and many tenement gangs would love to see most of the Marcuses hanging from their own rooftops for evicting members and families. Currently both of John’s parents are alive, though his father Kevin is currently in the early stages of dementia. He has a younger sister and brother, Natalie and Jacob. Ethnically they English, with some Dutch, Spanish, and French admixture.

Personal History: Born into relative luxury on Bainbridge island, John was given great attention being the first son of the family. With parents who had delegated most of their work to family and subcontractors, he was encouraged to develop his skills and knowledge from a very young age. Learning Piano and demonstrating an early aptitude in critical thinking and mathematics, he was enrolled in digital classes with private tutors on an array of subjects. While not quite a prodigy as it took him some time to learn these offered skills, he was a voracious consumer of information in his teenage years. He had a strong demonstrated interest in engineering and history, his studies focusing in on cryptography and philosophy.

His socialization was somewhat stunted, as he was schooled from home, but he developed a strong social presence on the internet, where he would regularly talk with other kids in the area about the latest entertainment and news. This level of engagement meant that he familiarized himself with all sorts of gadgets and gear. While he did not have the mind of a physicist, he did enjoy understanding how the tools everyone used worked. It would be after he turned twenty-three that John realized for all his schooling and knowledge, he had very little to show for it, and no practical experience. This emperor’s new clothes moment hit him quite hard. He found little enjoyment in the theory and musings of the elite circles he had access to. It was after he began reading the Juris Americana that he gained an interest in the Justice Department.

Interest turned quickly into a fixation, and fixation ignited into passion. At the age of twenty-three, John applied as a volunteer to the Inspectorate. This journey would take longer for him than most, as discipline needed to be pounded into him by the inspectors at the Academy. He was able to learn the Lex at an accelerated rate, which is what saved him from spending a much longer training period compared to the average cadet. He now finds himself on probation, and ready for his first assignment.

Additional Information: I suggest that higher encryption levels be used at Academy Barracks, possible a washout could alter data.

Interest turned quickly into a fixation, and fixation ignited into passion. At the age of twenty-three, John applied as a volunteer to the Inspectorate. This journey would take longer for him than most, as discipline needed to be pounded into him by the inspectors at the Academy. He was able to learn the Lex at an accelerated rate, which is what saved him from spending a much longer training period compared to the average cadet. He now finds himself on probation, and ready for his first assignment.

Additional Information: I suggest that higher encryption levels be used at Academy Barracks, possible a washout could alter data.

%%So when do I start, Inspector?%%

Um, hi, is it too late to ask if I can app?

I made one in case the answer would be yes, but I will not be surprised if it gets rejected ( if this one gets the boot I'll make a more normal one )

Name: Isaac Shrike
Age: 19
Appearance: Isaac's body is, wrong, as he tells himself, his right cheek replaced and the skin on the back of his head suffered the same fate, they twitch from time to time without Isaac's control, revealing a gross mixture of cybernetic motors and muscle mass, his other cheek's skin shows marks of needles, his dark hair is cut short, he stands at an impressive 2 meters, and is only 68 kilograms for his height, both of his legs were replaced, his left hand had its pinky and index replaced, his right bear's scars of injections, and cuts that could have only been inflicted by a knife.
Personality: the first thing you'd notice about Isaac is his incredible quietness, and for most people, it stays that way, the quiet one, the mute and whatnot, he's shy, incredibly at that, he has a very low opinion of himself, he fears of screwing something up, he compulsively washes his hands, doesn't trust easily, most people would then label him as a mess, it's truly a miracle he was picked for the Academy of Law isn't it, yet perhaps the person that made him be enrolled in the Academy saw something in him, an inkling of a desire to be seen as somebody better, a hero you may call it, previously and currently suppressed.
Specialization: Firearms
Cybernetics:
He has several of what you could call, vestigial implants, not serving much of a purpose, most notably of these are 4 teeth that can detect various tastes and amplify them, 2 deactivated, 1 broken, 1 still serving its the purpose, his left cheek and skin on the back of his neck being silicon plates on a couple of servomotors, there are small bits deeper into his body, like an artificial pump attached to his heart, which was supposed to increase the blood flow, now deactivated without a way of activation or removing it without damaging Isaac's heart, just like most of them, incomplete or deactivated they serve no purpose other than being a bother when passing through metal detectors.
There are however two things which are beneficial to Isaac
Unregistered and Unmarked pair of Artificial legs, which increase Isaac's speed
Unregistered and Unmarked Artificial Pinky and Index fingers, which can detect radioactivity, sound, and air pressure
However, it should be noted those variants are far worse than the market variants
Family Background: There isn't one, as far as genealogy is concerned, the family "Shrike" doesn't exist, it's most likely that this surname was given to him by his captor, for unknown reasons. Biologically his genetic heritage makes him an American, but not much else could be deciphered from it.
Personal History: Isaac was born in the lowest levels of Pacifica, he was taken from his parents probably as a kidnapping to then have them pay for his life, as they have previously not paid a protection fee to the gang controlling that terrain, however, they could not afford the price, and thus their son was lost to them, they were probably killed sooner or later after it.

Isaac meanwhile ended up in the laboratory of a particularly inventive back street modification dealer, where he was made a living lab rat to see if the various implants and modifications the dealer was peddling would work, not if they were safe for life though, this is where all of his vestigial modifications as well as the modifications of his legs and fingers come from.

He was eventually rescued by the Judiciaries during a crackdown, at age of 15, he was placed in Pacifica Ward House Nine-Two-Eight in Mega-Block Two-Zero-Five in what was once San Francisco, he was there for about a year, to see if he would survive despite his many modifications, he did, somehow, surprising even the medical experts the ward house cared to send to check upon him.

And eventually, one year later, somehow, he was selected to take the entrance exam for the Academy of Law, whether by dumb luck, actual skill, or incompetence of the ones in charge of selection, and then he did something surprising, he passed it, somehow, he wasn't well-liked by his class, and by his teachers, everybody he knew was expecting him to drop out, but, perhaps having the memory of the moment when Judiciaries busted into the dark laboratory he was kept in for years, he endured.

He passed with, well, passing grades, he was assigned firearms specialization since gun training was the only thing he was somewhat good at, it was made abundantly clear when he received this news he wasn't expected to make it through the first year, he wasn't even expected to make it through the first action, then he was sent off from the Academy, onto his first assignment.

Yay, it got accepted, time to read up on the IC and make a post

Edit: Pardon me asking, but, where would my character be at the time, on Overwatch like John Marcus? And is there a Discord?
