[SimplyJohn]

Name/Pseudonym: Alias - Thomas Elias Sinclair; Codename - 'Patch'; Real Name - Benjamin Franklin Pierce[REDACTED]

Gender: Male

Age: Late 20s; DOB - [REDACTED]

Appearance: At 5'7" with a medium height, medium build and an entirely undistinguished appearance Patch is almost the perfect undercover agent, one who blends into the crowd without being noticed or standing out in any way.

Passport Control

Fashion Victim

Agency: Formerly British Secret Intelligence Service (Military Intelligence, Section 6), currently disavowed due to 'ungentlemanly conduct'

Back"story": Tom is a talented medic who has been slowly touring the world, going wherever work takes him. During his career he's worked as a nurse in the US, helped set-up aid centres in the Middle East and assisted in disaster relief operations across Asia. Never staying in any one place too long Tom has been known to quit his job at a moment's notice whenever wanderlust strikes him.

Background check info

Background check info:
Tom currently holds a valid UK passport as well as a driving license and NI number. He has three bank accounts in the UK, one of which appears to act as holdings for his transitory work, another a long-term savings account and the third shows standard living expenses transactions dating back the last seven years matching his recorded international employment locations. Tom holds a criminal record in the US for aggravated assault after getting involved in a bar fight in Marrero, Louisiana May 2009 when a local man accused Tom of getting his teenaged daughter pregnant. Although Tom failed to appear at his arraignment, he subsequently made a sizable cash payment to the plaintiff causing all charges to be dropped.

Thorough background check info

Thorough background check info:
The girl in question later gave birth to a baby girl and received payments each month from an untraceable offshore bank account up until 2011. The payments ended shortly after her father died in a car accident, losing control of his vehicle while driving home from the local bar. As his death was judged to have been caused by his own actions the man's life insurance company refused pay-out, leaving his family in financial difficulties. In order to support her child the girl moved to Westbank, New Orleans and currently supplements her income working as an 'escort', advertising her services online using the name 'Ms Marrero'. The girl has a history of substance abuse which dates back to before her pregnancy, but no exact date is available for when this condition first started. There's no record of Tom having made any contact with the girl since 2009 and he seems uninterested in the current welfare of his alleged daughter.

Past

Past: Growing up Patch was always interested in biology, in fact while still at school he was often reprimanded by his teacher for spying on the girls in the changing rooms and showers. His interests deepened when his father took sick however and with little hope for recovery Patch began to study medicine in ernest in order to find a way to help him.

An intelligent and well motivated child Patch managed to graduate two years early from medical school, but he was already too late. Three months before he received his certification his father passed away. Driven to despair Patch began a lifelong addiction to alcohol, drinking himself into oblivion most weekends and using his knowledge of medicine to cover up his condition while at work. It was then that he was approached by a shadowy individual with a very special offer.

Military Intelligence was in need of someone with a medical background to help them track shipments of bio-weapons being transported around the world, and they knew that with his drinking problem Patch would make a perfect stooge if anyone caught him where he shouldn't be, as well as giving them a means of controlling their operative in the field. Providing him with everything he could need the SIS shipped Patch abroad with the broad assignment of finding biological weapons plants and flagging them for the Service to take out. For several years Patch wandered the globe, with a handler close behind monitoring his activities, and his frequent reports allowed the SIS to successfully take out many targets of opportunity before anyone else even knew that they had existed.

What the SIS weren't aware of was that Patch's handler had become compromised by him, and that while travelling Patch was making use of the contacts he was making to help set up his own little empire, providing 'medicinal assistance' to gangs and criminal organisations worldwide. The truth finally came out when the body of the handler turned up in the Hong Kong harbour, having died from an overdose of a previously unidentified amphetimine which had been cooked up in one of Patch's labs. Issuing an immediate kill order for the rogue agent the SIS moved to eliminate him, but they were too late. Patch had already made use of his contacts in the Triad to have himself swiftly whisked away to a place of safety.

Now on the run from the very agency which help him set up his network, and trying to keep a step ahead of the criminals whose supplies had been compromised by his absence, Patch finds himself in need of new allies, and a way to get the SIS off his back for good.

Specialization:
Patch's skill set revolves around being the first man on the scene, whenever and wherever that may be. With the ability to move quickly through almost any terrain he always makes sure to be there whenever someone needs a little medicinal assistance.

Master: Medicine
Expert: Athletics

Other:

Ladies Man: Patch has a history of womanising although he tends to be discreet in his relations, playing off of his role as a nurse and aid worker rather than mentioning his less ethical activities. He has a habit of offering 'special medicinal supplies' to girls he's interested in, making sure they enjoy his company for as long as he's around.

Alcoholic: Having dealt with his excessive drinking for many years Patch would tell you that he doesn't have a problem, as long as there's a steady supply of his favourite bourbon readily at hand. While he can control his condition with properly administered medication, which he can produce himself from the most basic and commonly available ingredients, any long periods without access to alcohol can leave Patch's talents impaired, making 'medicinal alcohol' a vital addition to any equipment stash.

Privately Funded: Even while he was still working for the SIS Patch used his access and skills to develop several forms of recreational medications which he used while on operations to gain access to secured facilities. Over time he managed to build a network of dedicated 'customers' who make sure to keep funds flowing into Patch's accounts, in exchange for a steady stream of 'product.' Now on the run, these lines of supply are under threat and soon Patch's loyal customers may start to question their relationship with their supplier.

Name/Pseudonym: Alias - Sera Jayne McBride; Codename - 'Condor'; Real Name - Sarah Marianne Corina Lewe

Gender: Female

Age: Mid 30s; DOB - June 13

Appearance: 5' 9" with an athletic build Sarah is attractive enough to turn a guy's head, while not being so outstanding as to leave an impression.

Not just a pretty face

'Streetwear' Condor

Wargear

Agency: No official allegience, ties to several underground and terrorist organisations across the US and former Soviet States of Russia.

Back"story": Sarah is currently on the run from several law enforcement agencies and has learnt to survive off the radar, living off the land and involving herself in society only when she has to. She's currently trying to track down those responsible for the deaths of her family, but taking her time and being cautious in her associations.

Background check info:

Background check info:
Using her underground contacts Sarah has managed to get herself erased from all known databases, living as a ghost outside the system. There's no official record of her existence, her fingerprints have been surgically removed and teeth cosmetically altered to avoid identification.

Past

Past: Sarah never planned for her life to turn out the way it did, for her the quiet life in her small town home was good enough for her. All that changed shortly after her 21st birthday when 'Kyle' walked into her life. At first she thought he was just another drifter, passing through town on his journey to no-where, but soon the waitress found herself drawn to the elusive man and the two became lovers. For the next several months Sarah and Kyle were the perfect couple with a loving, romantic and sexually active relationship which was the talk of the town. When she found out she was pregnant the pair celebrated with the support of the whole town. Unfortunately their happiness wasn't to last.

In truth Kyle was working as a government agent for the SVR, tasked with infiltrating and monitoring the data centre located on the outskirts of town. When his cover was exposed Kyle did all he could to get Sarah and his unborn child to safety, setting her up with 'friends' within his spy network who could keep her out of harms way until the heat blew over and he could rejoin them. However the friends he'd entrusted with his lover's safety turned out to be nothing of the kind and instead sold Sarah to a third-party.

While in their hands Sarah's child was surgically removed from her and she was tortured for days for information which could lead to Kyle's capture, and even though she had no information to provide her captors never relented in her torture. When she finally managed to break out Sarah was horrified to discover the dead body of her child amoung the refuse dumped outside the safe house. Driven with rage she made sure that no-one who had been involved in the operation survived, leaving only twisted and broken bodies behind her.

For the next two years Sarah hunted for Kyle however she could, making contacts within both the intelligence community and underground criminal syndicates. She took jobs where she could, building a reputation for herself in order to further her own agenda and over time she developed a skill for wet-work rivalling the most highly trained operatives. Her quest ended abruptly when she finally managed to find Kyle held in a US military prison in Alaska.

The raid was flawlessly planned with the assistance of former colleagues of Kyle's who were eager to rescue their comrade. When the time came to break into the facility all the piece were in place and the operation went like clockwork, right up until Sarah and Kyle were walking away only for him to be shot in the back by a high-powered sniper rifle. Sarah never knew exactly who had been responsible for the shot, and whether she'd been betrayed by the Russians, set-up by the Americans or whether a third-party had gotten themselves involved. Whoever had taken the shot, Sarah was left cradling her lover's body in her arms as he bled out.

Since that day Sarah has been on a self-proclaimed crusade to take down anyone who was involved with Kyle's death, and those responsible for the death of her child. Taking the dirtiest jobs and bloodiest contracts just as long as payment was provided in the form of information and leads which could help her track down the ones who gave the orders.

Specialization:
Sarah's tactics revolve around shock-and-awe, using the maximum amount of force possible to take down opponents before they can recover enough to strike back. In most of her assignments her targets never even realised they were under attack until it was too late.

Master: Toughness
Expert: SMGs _{(Weapon of Choice: FN P90 IR with integrated 4.5 mW infrared laser sight that can only be seen with night vision equipment.)}

Other:

Ruthless: Sarah is single-minded when it comes to the mission, willing to do whatever it takes to secure her objectives no matter who gets harmed in the process.

Seductive: With an attractive appearance and the right smile Sarah has managed to fool herself into more places than she'd ever have been able to storm alone, and she's learnt that at time honey catches more guys with their pants down than an Uzi 9mm ever could. When she needs to she can be just as charming and polite as any princess, although her claws are always ready to spring when needed.

Survivalist: Unable to access funds of her own Sarah has developed a skill for 'on-site procurement', taking weapons from her opponents when she needs them and relying on her creative wits and improvised tactics to wrong-foot her enemies at every turn.

Name/Pseudonym: real name[REDACTED] Alias: Jack Turpin
Gender: Male
Age: mid 20's DOB: [REDACTED]

Appearance:

Jack is rather tall standing at about six feet four inches tall.
Agency: If you looked you would see that he was connected to the CIA until he stole something he shouldn't have. There are references of his past connected to something called Project Juno

Back"story": Jack Turpin is just your average American expatriate living in England. His records show nothing interesting at all. He is just a normal person. His passport is in working order. Jack works as a bartender at a local pub. He doesn't need the money but he does it cause it is a fun way to meet people. Everyone loves a bartender.

Past:
There really was not a life before the Agency for young Jack. If that even is his real name. See Jack cannot remember a life before his eight birthday. All he remembers is the Farm and Project Juno. The American government decided that they needed a new breed of spy. They decided to start training spies from early ages. Their thought was to test if they could use the learning of children to make these spies.

Jack remembers stealing a wallet from a man. From there he was tapped to join Project Juno. He thought he got away with it until the man he robbed showed up in his base. He had stolen from a CIA operative who was out trying to see if they could find anyone for the project and Jack fit the bill. That day [REDACTED] died in a tragic fire and was replaced with Jack Turpin.

For the next ten years Jack was taught to be the perfect thief. The idea of the program was that no one would suspect that a child was attempting to rob them. No one would suspect anything. Not many got through the entire program and Jack was one of the few ones left alive. So when he legally could join the CIA, he did and was read into a group called Third Talon. The idea of this group was to do the jobs deemed to dark for the regular Agency. Since Jack did not exist there was no risk if he was caught.

However things were not as they seemed. After three years of working for Third Talon he discovered that Third Talon had gone rogue. Or maybe they were doing these missions under orders from someone high up in the Agency. Jack found out that they were connected to numerous different drug cartels trying to supply money and drugs to different organizations around the world. Jack tried to steal Intel that would get Third Talon removed from the records. However someone got to Jack before he could get the final piece he needed to, he was disavowed from the CIA. He was knocked out and woke up in London. He still had papers that his earlier days that could help him make himself a new life. He remembered about a safe house in the area and he decided to head there. He needed a place to hide

He now lives in Cornwall as a local bartender. He is currently trying to get the Intel he needs to get Third Talon removed and so he could return to the Agency. His skills as a thief would definitely help him.

Specialization:
Master-Stealth
Expert- Athletics
Other:


Cat like grace: He moves quickly and silently when he wants to be. He is very very sneaky and has no qualms with stealing baubles from the people in the house. When it comes to thievery there are few better.

Crafty: He had to learn early on to quickly change his methods on the fly. Sometimes though he needs help to get out when his plans go south.

[Skythikon]

Name/Pseudonym: Alias - Everett Zhang Xian Jing; Codename - Kheshig; Real name - [REDACTED]

Gender: Male

Age: Late twenties, possibly early thirties

Appearance: Standing at 5'9, Everett is relatively tall for a Chinaman. Almost serious all the time, he looks like the sort of man who could claim to have never smiled or laughed without eliciting disbelief. He keeps his black hair as long as it is practical; too short, and it would be obvious that he was military. Too long and it would affect his other job. Thus, his fringe sits just above his eyebrow, and he purposely keeps it disheveled to give him a more 'civilian' look. His brown eyes seem to be always on the verge of closing, making him look bored or disinterested at best.

Agency: Ministry of State Security, People's Republic of China. Disavowed as per mission requirement following botched assassination attempt on [DATA EXPUNGED]

Back"story": Everett is a Chinese immigrant who has only recently moved to Cornwall in search of greener pastures. He earns a living as a freelance computer technician, and is known among the community as a hard-worker who always delivers and never smiles.

Background Check

First mentioned by UK immigration authorities, later moved to Cornwall where he currently resides. Information prior to arrival scarce at best. Hints suggest military background, perhaps with Chinese Airborne, but difficult to confirm. Almost too difficult, amount of data expunged or redacted unusual for mere foot soldier.

Past: Before Everett was with the ministry, he was with the Second Department of Military Intelligence. Before he was with the department, he was a member of the elite PLA Special Operations Force. Before that, he was - as described by himself - a bastard in Heilongjiang with no education, no future and no life. Had he been born in the city rather than in a remote village, he would have perhaps fared better, but there was no place for a child born out of wedlock in rural China. Sure, he pulled his own weight, but even as a child he knew that he would never truly command respect from his peers.

Thus, it was little to surprise to anyone that he voluntarily joined the army as soon as he became of age. It had seemed like the best option for him at the time; no one would care about his background there, and even if anyone asked, he could make up whatever story he liked. Which officer would have the time to double-check the background of a single recruit hailing from a remote part of a remote region of a remote province? To everyone in his training unit, he was just another poor conscript who did not manage to evade the draft.

Soon enough, however, his determination to prove himself made him stand out among his peers. However, he never did show any aptitude in leading, and neither did he have the educational qualifications to become anything beyond an enlisted man. Sensing that it would be a waste for a person of Everett's caliber to become just another regular, rank-and-file soldier, he was sent for further training with the elite Special Operations Force. If he washed out, then his name would be among the dozens who would certainly suffer the same fate and would thus be no great loss to the army as a whole.

Everett's time in the SOF was spent between bettering himself - he never did have a trade beyond farming, after all - and taking part on highly dangerous raids against the rising East Turkestan Islamic Movement. It was during these raids that his unusually observant nature was noted. He noticed what most men did not, and identified clues and items of importance where most would write them off as just clutter. Coupled with his slowly-but-surely increasing aptitude with electronic devices and the like, it was only a matter of years before he was transferred to the Second Department to act as a SIGINT operative.

His new job required him to sit behind a desk more than being out in the field, and while Everett initially found it to be dreary job, he soon found a silver lining in the amount of free time he had been afforded. It allowed him to work on some of the more outlandish devices he had dreamed up during his training with the SOF. He started small, creating EMP devices no larger than a brick that could short out partially-shielded electronic grids, and eventually worked his way up to grenade-sized EMP charges that could either be thrown or attached like a block of C4.

It was by pure chance that he was transferred to the MSS. An agent had been burned for unknown reasons and they needed someone urgently to fill the gap left behind. With almost no family to speak of, and very little in the way of acquaintances outside of the military, Everett was chosen. This presented him the perfect opportunity to test out some of his weirder creations, ranging from a device that took down walls via resonant frequency to something with temporarily deafened people with a directed cone of low-frequency background noise. Coupled with his aptitude in hacking, his jobs were quickly characterized by the total collapse of his target's power grid followed by a rapid assault with his silenced rifle.

His time with the MSS came to an end when he was tasked with the targeted killing of [DATA EXPUNGED]. The mission went well initially, but ended in catastrophe when one of his timed EMP charges was late by a mere second. That one second resulted in him tripping an invisible alarm, which in turn led to him being discovered by his target's guards. [DATA EXPUNGED], Everett managed to escape with his objective complete, but his career shattered. The MSS had little choice but to brand him a rogue agent to mitigate the political fallout.

Thankfully for Everett, he had made plenty of friends during his years with the MSS. [REDACTED], a prominent businessman whose career Everett had saved during one of his data-mining missions, provided him with the materials necessary to forge a new life beyond China. Everett made his way to Cornwall, where he decided to stop for the time-being to regain his bearings and decide on his future.

By day, he works as a freelance computer technician, but still keeps himself occupied by taking on less-than-legal jobs that require his kind of expertise. Old thrills are hard to beat, after all.

Specialization:
Everett's tactics only appear to be sophisticated simply because of the gadgets he uses, but beneath it all is a simple, brute-force, shock-and-awe strike that takes his target by absolute surprise. Though he never uses timed charges anymore, he can still manage to render his target blind, dumb and mute before going in for the kill with his silenced rifle.
Master: Gadgetry
Expert: Tech Savvy

Other:

Gadgeteer: There is nothing in the world that cannot be solved by a gadget, and there is no gadget that is beyond Everett's imagination or skill.

Moral Compass: Do not assume that Everett is amoral simply because of his work. What he did for the MSS, he did because he truly believed (and still does) that it was for the betterment of the state as a whole. As a freelance contractor, those who offer him jobs that he deems morally repugnant can very easily find themselves in his crosshairs.

Adaptive: While he cannot account for every scenario, he is adept enough to be able to change his plans on the fly to suit changing mission parameters. Sometimes he can even turn an unexpected hitch into a welcome advantage over his adversaries.

The Great Wall: Saying that Everett keeps to himself would be an understatement. Call it caution, call it paranoia, but the main point is that talking about his person is something Everett seldom does. Coaxing even the slightest of information of his life can be a challenge for the smoothest talker. While this works well for someone like Everett, it cuts both ways. A person who keeps everyone out keeps potential allies out as well.

Name/Pseudonym: Cecelia "Birdseed" Garron; Real name: Magdeline Torres
Gender: Female
Age: Late 20s (in appearance)
Appearance:

Her Face and hair

Magdeline stands at about 5'4" and slim. She has an athletic build, due to her swimming past (details in "past").
Agency: Magdeline worked for an agency that has no name but 'Gamma'.
Back"story": Cecelia is a factory worker who works outside Plymouth for a big corporation. She has a USA passport and a work visa.
background check info: According to records, Cecelia has had 3 jobs: a secretary for a small corporation that sells mechanical toys, a US attourney, and the factory desk job outside Plymouth.
Past: Magdeline was raised in an alright household. Her parents were divorced, but her mom was able to get by. She had a corporate job and worked 10-12 hour shifts. But the bills were paid and they had weekends to spend time together, usually at Magdeline's swim meets on Saturdays, since she's been on the swim team since 3rd grade. Once Magdeline grew up, she joined the US military, because she didn't know what she wanted to do. Her ability with talking down hostiles (that weren't shooting immediately) and her prowess with technical gadgets (homemade stun grenades, smoke bombs, etc) earned her a ticket to this organization that was known to the military as 'the watch'. She was drugged while being transported to the location of the Gamma HQ, but once there, they immediately started testing (once she was dressed. Not Alpha Protocol style). She was best with a pistol. Just enough power to detonate anything she needed to from her arsenal of homemade grenades and shock traps.

After her first few missions, she was sent to the UK to investigate a corporation that was supposedly slowly killing the entire city of London. Turns out, it was a global gang, and Magdeline was almost killed and/or sexually used, knowing gangs and all that. Once she got out, using some molotave cocktails via the stash of liquor they stored, probably stolen, she destroyed the building. No idea of the status of those inside. A few days later, she happened to have fallen out of her bed that night while still staying asleep. She moves around a lot at night. Well, that night, there was a hit on the house, mafia style. Machine guns and lots of bullets. She was under the initial spray of lead. She crawled her way to the basement to make her escape. Attempting to contact her main handler the next morning, she got no response, so she left her PDA there where she tried to contact Gamma and left, trying to find somewhere to go. Following a hop, skip, and a few contacts she's made since joining Gamma, she finally got word of a location in Cornwall. So by paying off the last contact for information, Magdeline packed her stuff and headed off to the only safe safehouse available to her.
Specialization:
Master-Conversationalist
Expert-Gadgetry
Other:
Asexual: While Magdeline can manipulate others' arousal to an extent, her work with and love of gadgets have kind of stifled her sexual desires. She's swung for both teams, but now prefers neither.

Sexually Oblivious: Outside of missions where it's necessary, Magdeline doesn't catch hidden innuendos or advances towards her verbally, since her sexual orientation is currently "N/A".

Versitile: If her time training on psychological fronts has taught her anything, it's that you need to act a certain way to get a certain response. To that extent, Magdeline will act however she needs to to get the desired reaction from her target, in the field of course. Outside of missions, Magdeline just acts herself.
