    Post Gear Retrieval- A glorified creative exercise (Character name casting call)

    Right, so since "The Bucket" process of storywriting is done, I need names, damnit. I'm not good at coming up with names, so I'm outsourcing to you guys. It's simple. Reply with a name, could be your character's name or just something you made up, and the role you would want said character to have. It's first come, first serve. I'd prefer for the CO and Synth names to be from Whitelisted players, but I don't really care all that much.

    As for the story itself, it is the tale of a Predator who has to infiltrate a UPP military complex in order to retrieve stolen Predator equipment pilfered from an ancient tomb. A story of captured marines doing their best to escape torture and shitty Russian food. An Epic of CIC personnel watching the whole rolling trashfire play out. There will be shenanigans and dark humor. Bitchslaps and suplexes. Explosions, war crimes, and enough Vodka to flood a church. The kids'll love it.

    [I]PFC#2[/I]: owns a pair of mail-order night vision goggles, is the only one who can understand Russian due to reading an English to Russian phrasebook on a really boring flight. TAKEN: Michael Fitzgerald

    XO: Conspiracy theorist; has to be threatened with bodily harm to get off of the public radio. TAKEN: Gus L. Abraam

    MISC Characters (Because why not)

    Evan Stelf The PFC birthday boy.

    Cabal "NOD" Shephard PFC who lights the candles on a birthday cake with a flamer, is why fire alarms have Hazard Tape pointing to them.

    For the Specialist, since there are 5 different kits, and because I take it as a challenge, I am also requesting whoever picks Specialist to ALSO let me know in said reply what the Spec's kit is. I have a plan for all types, so don't feel like you'll be railroaded into picking one.

    Usually playing as Darwin 'D.J.' Jefferson, PFC (Private: Flare Carrier), or Smartgunner almost always out of ammo. Occasionally an RO who yearns for death, dealing with rampant jackassery of his coworkers.
    Against my better judgement I decided to start making Youtube videos involving Colonial Marines. Channel

    Right, so as someone thankfully brought up to me, considering the ACTUAL National tragedy in Japan over an arsonist killing about 33 people and ruining just as many lives, portraying arson in a semi-comedic manner would be insensitive at best, and morally/ethically fucked up otherwise. Soooooooo. Yeah. I axed that portion. That is all.
