It is the year 2018 a.t.b. of the Imperial Calendar....



The Black Rebellion, and the uprising over the one the majority of Japanese called their savior, Zero, has come to an end. The Black Knights, soldiers of freedom or terrorists depending on your point of view, failed to overcome the Britannian forces during the crucial offensive to take back their homeland. Zero supposedly abandoned his soldiers vanishing just as suddenly as he had arrived leading to the possible doom of the movement. In this time Suzaku Kururugi has ascended to the Knights of the Round, and Viceroy Calares has taken over control of Japan from the now missing Princess Cordelia. Reconstruction efforts are beginning to see fruit in Japan as cities hurt by the Rebellion begin to recover. Despite this however The Black Knights, and other Japanese insurrection forces refuse to stand down and continue on.

Among these people a new group have risen up still baring the Black Knights title but refusing to acknowledge the main branch. Though their location is unknown by the Britannian Forces they are situated in the mountains of Kyushu. Made up of some of the Black Knight's aces and otherwise stalwart soldiers they defiantly attack the empire. They are led by legendary general Sho Kurasaki. General Sho is a former general in the Japanese Army. It was he who had actually served in the front lines against Britannia in the first war. And he continued to serve all the way to the bitter end. In his final moments he had even defeated some of the first knightmare frame systems sent to Japan by way of clever tactics, and underhanded trickery. A firm believer in Bushido, and a truly strong individual Sho has rallied the men together seeing the Black Rebellion as a failed turning point has renewed his belief that Japan can be whole again. Initially he refused to join the Japanese Liberation Front, and the Black Knights due to his own code of ethics preventing him from re-entering the fight he has chosen to come out of hiding in order to return Japan. Though he considers himself a 'ronin' without a master now he intends to bring the fight to Japan. But he does not do so alone.

Enter the European Union. A long time enemy of the Britannian Empire and a collection of individual states that seek true independence from the Empire. A major world super power rivaling the Britannian Army in scale, and size. Though in terms of technological sufficiency that is what they are lacking. Despite this however the E.U. is now planning on assisting General Sho in his efforts in re-taking Japan in an effort to gain support for pushing Britannian Forces out of the captured Scotland, Ireland, Wales, and Great Britain. To this end the Europeans have proudly sent Sho a group of men and women who will turn the tide of the Black Rebellion. This force is designated W-1. Led by the son of an Irish Minister, and former JLF sympathizer Jack Blake. He was temporarily adopted by former JLF General Nagamasa Azai but has dropped Azai as his last name in order to more properly lead the W-1 Task Force. Once they save Japan they are to pressure Britannia in hopes of one day allowing the European Forces to win the day.

I am currently writing up by sheet, it will be pretty long and complicated (As I have spent a while thinking about it)

I will soon PM it to @vancexentan, though there are some issues that I may need to discuss in the PM. My character idea will also be very.... "interesting", considering Vance's character... xD

@Elevator MusicAlright well just do your best. Trust me there's a lot more characters more intimidating than Jack I've made. You can take your time and slowly build it up if need be.

@AltForCasual Alright we'll see if we can bump up a few things. Assuming it's character differences there's no reason you need to like your CO.

I think I'll just spruce up an old character sheet of mine, though considering some significant changes to the character. Also need to take into account the alternate history for this roleplay so quite a few things will need some tweaks.

And after discussing with vancexenten, I have completed my sheet and now ready to be accepted.

Note: Warning: My biography is large because I like info dumping character history. I am pretty sure everyone is not required to do what I did there.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Maria “Blackguard” Doroshenko
Nicknames: “Marusya”(Alias/alternative name), Ukrainian Blackguard, The Eurasian Blackguard

Age: 26
Gender: Female
Social Status: EU military officer, Ukrainian State Military, Knightmare Corps Lieutenant (On lease to EU army), Knightmare operator
Born: Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine, EU

Appearance:

Knightmare Jumpsuit Mode:

Personality: Maria is a highly serious, passionate and authoritative woman with a militant mentality, a mentality melded by her constant involvement in high intensity conflicts across the Middle East and Eurasia. While Maria was trained to be disciplined and orderly and grew up with a father that taught her values of duty, compassion and loyalty, only some of this stuck and much of it has since been twisted by time, suffering and war.

Maria possess like many other EU aces, fanatical loyalty, however ever since the crushing defeats on the Eastern/Eurasian Front, Maria has become increasingly less loyal to the EU and more specifically to the member-state Ukraine and her nationalist, turning ultranationalist political views. Her compassion has greatly diminished to the put she has become increasingly ruthless and filled with hatred for Britannians, thus of these original values all that remains pure is her sense of duty... the obligation that she must do whatever is necessary to defend her home from the Britannian invaders and follow the orders that will ensure this.

A fiery orator and charismatic leader as well as a relatively bright tactician, Maria while beginning as a sub-lieutenant (Knightmare Corps, roughly equal to army first lieutenant) fresh from officer training quickly rose up the ranks to Lieutenant and then through a number of field promotions (assisted by the desperation of the EU army during the retreat from Far Eastern Russia) she reached the rank of acting-commander while actually still a Lieutenant. This rapid rise however saw a quick downfall as her flaws of ruthlessness and cruelty had her stripped of her field-promoted ranks (back to Lieutenant) during an internal investigation into possible war crimes committed by Maria. These demotions have only further strengthened her resentment for the EU and growing beliefs in nationalism.

Maria as can be seen above is quite xenophobic and racist, seeing Britannians entirely as barbarian savages that wish to enslave and despoil her homeland. While she still holds some of her former respect for the peoples of countries also invaded/being invaded by Britannia (Particularly the former Middle Eastern Federation where she fought before the Britannian invasion of the EU), she is becoming increasingly distrustful of other peoples, particularly after what she sees as a betrayal of Western Europe with their focus on defending Western Europe while almost entirely abandoning Eurasia to its fate.

Overall, Maria is a bitter and disillusioned former idealist now filled with hate and a fervent desire to protect what sees as her people and nation.

--------------------------------

Biography/History:


Relationships w/ Other Characters:
-Father: Very strained. Her father loves her but is horrified by her hatred/racism and what may be some truth in the Britannians claims of her committing war crimes.
-Mother & Sister: Maria has not talked to her mother and sister in years (since they left) and has nothing but utter contempt for them.
-WIP while other players create their characters and discuss our characters history.

Goals:
-The defence (and if necessary, liberation) of her homeland, Ukraine.
-Destruction of the Britannian Empire in its entirety, preferably with the Britannians getting a taste of their own medicine in the form of national revolutionary wars in Africa and South America.
-(Subconscious/hidden to most: Acceptance of the Ukrainian people and cleansing the Doroshenko name of treason and disgrace)


Skill Set:
-Skilled Knightmare pilot, knows how to drive both Panzer-Hummels and Barnides.
-Tactician (Ironically may become a negative issue as she is not the commander of the squadron)
-Guerilla Warfare Specialist
-Experience in both infantry and armoured/tank warfare, though not expertise
-Survival skills, self-sufficiency, tracking, hiding in wilds, etc.
-Charisma (Note: Charisma only works with those with a similar world-view as her, repulses others)


=========================================================================

Knightmare Frame: Panzer-Wespe (Modified)



Name of Knightmare: “Tachanka” (unofficial, named by Maria personally)
Description: The Panzer-Wespe is a variant of the Panzer-Hummel equipped with actual arms instead of dual auto-cannons capable of wielding a Knightmare firearm. An overall heavy Knightmare frame, its high firepower, defence and versatility gained from its hands (including the ability to use melee weapons) sacrifices manoeuvrability and some speed. On the other hand, Maria has had the Knightmare modified by removing the standard shoulder-mounted artillery cannons so it is less abominably sluggish and obvious during ambushes and guerrilla warfare

Weapons and Operational Systems of Knightmare:
-Cockpit Ejection System
-Factsphere Sensor
-Landspinner propulsion System
-Optional Sand Panels


Armament
-2 chest mounted 3-tube Missile Pods (Panzer-Hummel base)
-2 Hip-mounted Slash harkens (Panzer-Hummel base)
-2 Shoulder-mounted artillery cannons
-1 Assault Rifle
-OPTIONAL: elbow-mounted Stun Tonfas (Maria is trying to get her hands on a Maser Sword but hasn’t got one)[/i]
Note: The Shoulder-mounted cannons that are supposed to be equipped have been removed

Knightmare Generation: 2nd Generation EU Knightmare Frame

Don't worry about it just chill out put on some music you like, and something will come to you eventually. The person doesn't need to be made today. If it helps you can go and look at all sorts of anime just to try to draw inspiration.

@Duoya@AltForCasual Do either of you care to brain storm on what our first mission(s) should be? I'm thinking a raid on a naval port and destroy/capturing an enemy knightmare and arms shipment. Simple and it let's everyone introduce their characters.

@vancexentan Probably something like destroying/capturing a Knightmare or arms shipment. Attacking a naval port would probably draw too much attention to W-1 as soon as it arrives in the country (Unless this is in Europe and we haven't left yet).

W-1 has been there for awhile now. The Black Knights while mostly dispersed are still conducting small raids. Attacking a convoy in-land would require a lot of preparation as we'd need a way to discreetly move back to Kyushu.

@vancexentan Right, good information to know.

In that case, I'd wait until we know a bit more about what the skill set of W-1 is going to be. So far we have a tactician(you), a Guerrilla warfare specialist(me) and a Knightmare technician/specialist (Douya).

General Soldiers in W-1 Consist of talented soldiers from the E.U. despite their losses they're suffering atm they're trying to get the Britannians to refocus efforts on Japan. Right now we have the the luxary of having the majority of elite Britannian orders like the knights currently focused on Europe. In terms of other characters Ice Heart is making a stealthy assassination type.

I added a few new npcs to the above posts Raphael is a talented soldier and a really good in making up plays in the heat of the moment if I had to compare him to someone I'd say he'd be just below holy sword level in overall skill, Sho is a master strategist, and Fujimori, while his backround is shrouded in mystery, is currently supplying us with all sorts of intelligence from various locations in Japan from other black knights, and black market contacts.
