Name: Jack Murphy or Yellow Jacket Age: 33 Gender: Male Appearance: Jack has short brown hair and fairly pale skin. He has blue eyes and is well proportioned. his legs have been replaced by cybernetics and bot are made of poorly welded together metal and have pneumatics going from half way up the shin down to his cybernetic feet. His lower right arm has a bulky but smooth, red cybernetic attachment and silver plated fingers (with actual silver) and he also has half of his face replaced with silver cybernetics and has a glowing green eye where his old one used to be. For clothes he wears a pair of brown shorts and a black and yellow leather jacket. Personality: Jack has a ‘don’t give a s$&!#’ attitude to most of the people he meets and will often times seem emotionless and cold like the cybernetics grafted onto his body. While Jack is a ruthless killer he prefers to keep he killing justifiable by taking on jobs to take down or kill villains rather than heroes but that does not mean he won’t take down a hero if the price is good enough. Jack, unlike some mercenaries, is against intentional killing of the innocent and has only ever caused accidental harm to innocents five times in his eleven years of mercenary work. Underneath all his cold cybernetic parts and even colder personality Jack is a fairly happy person and can get quite a few laughs out of people. Skills: Jack is very skilled with guns and his cybernetics. Jack is great at close range fights but is much better at long or short ranges. He has also perfected his own fighting style which he has called ‘Can o’ whop a$$’ which perfectly incorporates his cybernetics. Abilities: While Jack was born without super powers he decided one day that he would make his own super human abilities via the fantastic world of technology. A few of his more notable augmentations are as follows: - The lower half of right arm is replaced with a bulky red replacement along with skinny metallic fingers so he can still fire weaponry and do more delicate tasks. The arm also contains hydraulics that allow him to extend his fist very quickly to add an extra kick to his punch. - The shoulder of his left side has a sleek black cannon on it which looks like a boxy pirate cannon. It can fire bursts of extreme heat or be used in a constant stream but doing so will cause it to over heat very quickly. - His right leg contains pneumatic systems that allow him to run quite a bit faster than the average human and can also store little odds and ends such as a pistol or something of that size. - Jacks left leg is replace from the shin down and also contains pneumatics to allow for enhanced speed but rather than being able to store things it has four pistol type weapons in the sole of the foot which can only be fired twice before reloading which isn’t an easy task to do in battle. - The left half of Jacks face is replaced by smooth silver cybernetics that also replaces his eye and is loosely hooked up to his brain. These cybernetics allow Jack a variety of things such as depth perception since he has two eyes once again, binocular vision for seeing far away, a laser from the eye (not a actual laser just like a laser pointer) and storage for extra memories and details he wouldn’t want to forget. Also for dire purposes it can which over his breathing to some back up tanks that will give him anywhere from 10-15 minutes depending on his breathing patterns . - Jack has a small grade laser-guided missile launcher on his back which could take out a entire house if he used them all up. Not much more to this one. Now just because Jack has a lot of advantages doesn’t mean he’s completely invincible. He is still affected by normal diseases and is now susceptible to viruses via computers (although he has a pretty good fire wall) and also is affected by magnetism and can’t swim very well. Jack gets half of the power from a few high calibre rechargeable batteries scattered amongst his cyborg body but he is also able to run everything from bio-energy or the energy his body creates via chemical energy or heat but this too make EMP type attacks affect not only his cybernetics but his well being itself as he has to run everything off of himself and if he’s tuckered out from a fight this could potentially prove fatal. Yet another weakness is that he is still human (well in some parts) and is still capable from dieting by being shot in the wrong spot or of the such. Luckily he usually keeps either pretty close up where a gun won’t do much good or very far away where most won’t see him. Equipment: Sniper-rifle- A favourite among Jacks arsenal as it keeps him at a safe distance away from most danger and he’s pretty darn good at using it. It fires quick, three bullet bursts and has an effective range at 500 yards although Jack can sometimes get a hit from farther away thanks to his eye. When not in use the gun is usually slung over his shoulder and on his back which for the most part he makes no attempt to hide it. The barrel of the gun can retract when not in use so it doesn’t affect the wearers mobility. Pistol- A fairly standard pistol that Jack uses when in a tight situation or at medium and short range. Jack prefers to use these only when nessacey as its pretty small and fumble when held in his robotic arm and is harder to aim. KO grenades- Jack uses these on even more rarely than his pistol as they don’t ‘get the job done’ but they are very useful when dealing with civilians or hostage situations as they are explode on impact and release a knock out gas over a ten foot radius. Brief Backstory: Jack grew up like anyone else in the world, going to school, marvelling at superheroes and what not but as he got older and his time begun running out to find out what he was going to do with his life he decided he would take his hand at the growing business of mercenary work. Now at the time Jack was no clint east-wood when it came to shooting and wasn’t much in the realm of hand-to-hand combat so naturally he got half of his face blown off during his first job and was left to die (honestly it was surprising he didn’t die on the spot) he woke up a week later in a motel room with a cold feeling on his face so he went to the mirror. He saw that now where half of his face used to be was now metallic and robotic at first Jack didn’t know what to think but he soon got over the fact that he had almost died and realized that he didn’t even know where he got the awesome half a face from. He then saw a note on the bedside table which he read ouloud to himself “You got spunk kid, not much skill but you got potential. Maybe try to stay a little farther away next time. Theres a present to help you with that in the bathtub -A Friend” Jack didn’t know who did this or why but he wasn’t about to question the fact that he was still alive and had just gotten an edge over most of his competition. Jack continued his life as a mercenary and became very good at it but of course he made slip ups from time to time so instead of retiring he would get some new cybernetic enhancements from anywhere near by. Soon he had earned the name Yellow Jacket in the merc community from his emotionless aggression towards targets and his yellow and black jacket that he wore.
