[/hider] [hr] [b]Psychological Report:[/b] [hider=Expand][i]"I can't say I was expecting Specialist Kannenberg to be as affable as she was when we first met. Reading over her career notes, it becomes a bit more clear that the woman tries to keep herself as busy as possible, and every moment you can pull her away from her workbench is a much-needed breath of fresh air for her, even if she doesn't realize it in the moment. Winter, as I see it, needs her hands to keep her grounded. EFT Zürich gave her the kick in the arse she needed to get her going but failed to keep her in the lab after they tossed a diploma to her. Cambridge tried to keep her captivated, but ultimately you can't keep a wandering mind cooped up in a lab without something breaking. The world was moving too slow for her liking - it's no wonder she enlisted. I don't think she can discern the difference between work and play. Could backfire. Might be best to try and push her to take the leave she's earned. But I think it's best to play it by ear. She gets the job done, she communicates with her squadmates when she needs to. She's played well for three years and I can't yet see the cracks, and that's all I need for now. I like her style. Give her some chemicals to play with and some analog equipment and she's right as rain. Lass after me own heart. If only she could pry herself away from that damn bench."[/i] -Six [/hider] [hr] [b]Skills:[/b] [hider=Expand] [list] [*] Considerable proficiency with explosive systems, chemical weapons, and other similar chemical-based equipment [*] Proficiency in engineering [*] Above-average weapons skill [*] Paratrooper training [*] Adaptable, improvisational [*] Fluent in German, English, Polish [*] Learning Russian, French [/list] [/hider] [hr] [b]Equipment:[/b] [hider=Primary] [img]https://i.imgur.com/SNlLoWP.png[/img] [b]Heckler & Koch G3 Battle Rifle[/b], Danish A5 variant [b]Caliber:[/b] 7.62x51 NATO [b]Capacity:[/b] 20-round box magazine, +1 chambered [b]Attachments:[/b] [list] [*] Aimpoint CompM4 sight [*] A3 retractable stock [*] Stock G3 muzzle brake [/list] [img]https://i.imgur.com/6Sd3qiM.png[/img] [b]Heckler & Koch HK433 Assault Rifle[/b] [b]Caliber:[/b] .300 AAC Blackout [b]Capacity:[/b] 30-round magazine, +1 chambered [b]Attachments:[/b] [list] [*] NcSTAR Advance Riflescope with flip-up reflex sight [*] Gemtech HVT-QD suppressor [/list] [/hider] [hider=Secondary] [img]https://i.imgur.com/7jSgsg3.png[/img] [b]SIG Sauer P400r semi-automatic pistol[/b] [b]Caliber:[/b] 9x19 Parabellum [b]Capacity:[/b] 17-round magazine, +1 chambered [b]Attachments:[/b] [list] [*] SIG Sauer ROMEO2 reflex sight [*] SIG Sauer FOXTROT4 flashlight/dazzler [*] SilencerCo X9 Osprey suppressor [/list] [/hider] [hider=Utility] [list] [*] Eickhorn KM 2000 BW combat/utility knife [*] DM51 Fragmentation Grenade(s) [*] MB6 EMP Grenade(s) [*] E-ALZ Motion Sensor [*] Standard Bundeswehr Trauma, Mess, [i]Pionier[/i] Kits [/list] [/hider] [hider=Special - Taschensturm] [h2]PBX-Poly12 "Taschensturm" explosive foam[/h2] An aerosetting, quick-drying polyurethane foam carrying polymer-bonded explosives contained within a small spray canister. This explosive foam can be sprayed on a surface in any pattern one wishes. A sonic detonator is then pushed into the hardening foam, which will only detonate the explosives when a specific ultrasonic frequency at a high enough volume is emitted within its detection radius, effectively bypassing increasingly-common signal-jamming equipment. Winter is able to deploy the Tachensturm through a hand-held CO2-charged spray gun. She usually carries three canisters of PBX-Poly12 - a compound of her own design - as well as a full kit of detonators and an analog "sound gun," essentially a small, handheld directional speaker capable of broadcasting the appropriate detonation frequency.[/hider] [hr] [b]Bio:[/b] [hider=Expand]Winter was born to Frederik and Ada Kannenberg in the small community of Lindenau, just outside of Leipzig, Germany. While her father was a military historian of mild acclaim, her mother was more or less the family breadwinner as a Professor at the Institute of Chemical Technology within Leipzig University. Ada's passion for chemistry rubbed off on her daughter, whose studious nature would soon see her pursuing a double-major in both organic and inorganic chemistry at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zürich. Her Master's thesis, titled [i]Independent Replication of Inorganic Self-Folding Polymer Structures Through Simulated Biopolymeric Monomers[/i] made quite a stir in the academic community. Despite graduating [i]Summa Cum Laude[/i], little inroads were made into pursuing her thesis by the Institute afterwards. Dissatisfied, Winter gladly accepted an invitation from the University of Cambridge, who were much more interested in continuing her research. After spending some time back in Leipzig with her parents, she soon landed in England and began her second stay at a University outside her home country. At Cambridge, Winter found the work quite intriguing, but ultimately arduous, painstakingly slow, and potentially fruitless. Beginning to question the virility of her degree, Winter continued her research, but began enrolling in various language and engineering courses to supplement her increasing boredom and decreasing conviction. She would never complete these courses, however. After hearing news of a series of deadly terrorist attacks in Prague and along the Czech-German border, she dropped out and returned to her parents in Germany. She remained at home for another year, toying with the ideas of various career pursuits before eventually enlisting in the Bundeswehr at age 24, most likely with the encouragement of her father, but the chagrin of her mother. Initially enlisting as a [i]Pionier[/i] (Engineer), she was soon transferred to the [i]Panzerjäger[/i] branch, where her knowledge of chemistry served her best with demolitions work. After completing six months of basic training, she was promoted to [i]Obergefreiter[/i] (Senior Enlisted), and continued drills and exercises with the rest of her company out of Truppenübungsplatz Heuberg in southern Germany. After another six months of continued excellence both in field and demolitions drills, she was promoted to [i]Hauptgefreiter[/i] (Head Enlisted) and, to her satisfaction, was nominated by her company commander for the NCO track. A prospective candidate to the selection board, she easily passed the entry requirements and was approved for NCO training, transferring to the Bundeswehr Command and Staff College in Hamburg to begin her latest set of studies. Used to an academic environment, Winter further impressed the senior brass and made [i]Feldwebel[/i] (Sergeant) in a record two and a half years. About another year later, after leading fellow [i]soldaten[/i] on a plethora of peacekeeping missions, she was recommended for transfer to the [i]Fallschirmjäger[/i], where she continued to lead troops and advance up the Feldwebel ladder. Eventually, she was given the opportunity to join the [i]Kommando Spezialkräfte[/i], where she would co-ordinate with other branches of the Bundeswehr for various international operations as a [i]Leutnant[/i] (Lieutenant). In 2032, following a joint undercover anti-terror operation in the Balkans, Team Leader Dominic Brunsmeier noted Winter's cunning ability to analyze and manipulate explosives as a useful skillset and passed his notes on to an old acquaintance. Winter soon found herself offered a position in Team Rainbow at age 33, which she accepted.[/hider] [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVw_1RZncec]Recommended Listening[/url]
