Name: Ryoto Minami
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Nationality: Neo-Japan
Alias/Handle: Blade

Psychological Analysis: Blade is a very...efficient individual. He hardly lets his emotions get in the way of his work. Though when he does let his emotions get the better of him, he can be kind, in his own way. Though he does jobs for himself, he does small acts of kindness every once in a while for other people. Maybe as a sort of redemption for all the other acts in his life. He does not, however, care at all for corporations and he especially relishes missions where he can let loose in the pristine offices of the corporate drones. That does not stop him from taking jobs from corporations though, as they often pay the best. He is a complex person, to be sure, attributed no doubt to his past.

Employment Record: While not much is known about his childhood and early life, other than the fact that he was from a rather wealthy family, 'The Blade' certainly made a mark with his work in the underworld and the corporations alike. In 2194, Ryoto Minami was hired at a Technology Mega Corp. at the age of 17. Apparently at the recommendation of a very influential individual, by the name of Akio Minami. Within just 5 months working there, Ryoto had worked his way to being Second-In-Command of the security force. In a year, he had earned the nickname 'The Blade' among his colleagues for his devastating skill with any type of blade. His reputation was cemented when the facility he worked in was attacked. An elite group of Ronin had infiltrated for another corporation and was gunning down everyone in sight. Using the very prototype katana the Ronin were after, a revolutionary hybrid, Blade fended them off. Three of the four Ronin were killed and the survivor barely survived, detonating a grenade, throwing Blade through a glass window. Remarkably, Blade survived the encounter, but not without cost.

His lungs had to be replaced with cybernetic ones and his chest would be scarred for the rest of his life. After working 2 years at the corporation he resigned, stealing the prototype as he left. He decided to go into Ronin work, the appeal of being an independent contractor too strong for Blade to resist. By the time he entered the scene, there were rumors of a new player on the field, only known as 'The Blade'. He proved immediately skilled at this field and found he quite enjoyed it. However, when stealing the prototype blade, which he had named 'Makaze', he failed to complete it with a final piece and the blade snapped. Enraged, he immediately sought a craftsman. After much searching, he found someone with sufficient skill, but it would be costly. Blade decided it was worth the price. In the end he paid 9,000Cr, but 'Makaze' was good as new. Eventually, being Ronin was just like your average job, except 5 times more exciting. While Blade became more and more experienced, he still only worked solo, no matter how dangerous the job. Until recently, where he agreed to work with a crew. Something he's never done, but it should prove interesting.

Enhancement: Cybernetic Lung replacements (Increases Endurance and Stamina) A-Grade 10,000Cr

Equipment: Slightly Modified Elite Grade Armor 20,000Cr

Makaze repair 9,000Cr
A-Grade Scoped Assualt Rifle 5,000Cr
B-Grade Mil-Spec Handgun 1,000Cr
Stealth Cloak 2,500Cr



P.S.- I plan to reveal more of Blade's history through the rp, if that's alright with the GM.

Probably going to close applications within the next 24ish hours- I'd make it shorter, but I'm going to be busy all day writing papers tomorrow anyway so I might as well give you guys some more time. After that I'll select the cast, and we'll move onto IC/OOC

As promised, here is @Breadngames' character. He doesn't have access to a proper PC and typed most of this in mobile on point form, so I'm expanding it for him. He'll probably work on it once he gets on a computer.

Alright everyone! Thank you for your characters! I have decided that the cast for this adventure will be:

@Heat, as Grizzly, the big, brawny, heavyweight with a big gun.
@Reaper, as Oracle, the quirky tech-head with a penchant for sweets and machinery.
@Aristo, as Swallowtail, the professional, the (relatively) old timer, who gets the ins and outs of underworld society.
And @Breadngames as Goblin, a combat medic with a military background and a desire for revenge.

@Breadngames, I would probably have passed on you, especially because you have yet to be part of any RP's (On this site at least), so I know absolutely nothing about you. But since you come to me recommended by one of my veterans, I'll take a chance on you. Don't let me down!

@Everyone else, thank you for your character submissions! There were a lot of good ones in here, and a lot more than I had anticipated, I hope to see you all around the guild!

Roger that @vietmyke. Took part in an RP before RPG got revamped, and never really got back into it after that. But reaper told me about your idea, so I figured I could give it a shot again. I'll do my best!

.open.choosefile(c:/folder/fl/tier3/g/goblin4.def)

Subject: Saito Kurosawa (born Zhao Guoliang)
Age: 28
Gender: Male-male
Nationality: 2nd gen NJ citizen (born NPRC)
Alias: Goblin

.open.sub.choosefile(c:/folder/fl/tier3/g/goblin4.def;psych536)

Psych Overview:
Subject attempted to break ice with sarcastic joke. Psych Unit KLEO obviously unimpressed. Subject then made unfavourable comparison between KLEO and common household appliance (see:toaster). Subject pacified through mild electroshock. Review commenced without further interruptions.
Subject put through word association test. Abnormal responses observed, highlighted below:
4.Family: “tpk”
12.Government: “abandon”
49.Oath: “broken”
121.Day: “wasted”
133.Murderer: “fucking cunt stain”
150.Ronin: “*CENSORED*”
172.Snack: “holy shit how many of these are there”
173.Ramen: “are you fucking kidding me”
174.Burger: “*NO RESPONSE DETECTED*”
175.Fillet: “oh god please stop”

250.Aroma Therapy: “yessir yessir two bags full”

(see more...)

Conclusion:
Subject displays tendency towards irreverence and cynicism. Additionally, subject is predisposed against demands of applied vocation as T3 asset (see response #133). Will require moderate persuasion to properly direct. Recommended prescription list includes four (4) class-b mood-altering drugs, two (2) psycho stimulants and two (2) vitamin supplements.

Additional notes:
Belay the prescription. Goblin is a trained medical professional and will probably figure out we’re dosing him. No point antagonizing an asset when we can simply direct him by selectively feeding him info on *REDACTED*. If he still has a hate boner for them, we’ll have our leash.
Interestingly, cross-referencing with his JSDF psych analysis, it seems Goblin has changed a great deal since. “Dour, humourless and serious to a fault” are not the words one would describe the man we just interviewed. Clearly, that shitshow at the clinic left quite the scar on him (PTSD?). This just adds credence to my recommendation. Anything that can transform a person that fundamentally is a raw nerve we can exploit.



Employment Record:

Born Zhao Guoliang, the man now known as Goblin fled what used to be China at the age of four. His parents had been political dissidents, and when a nation-wide crackdown turned for the worse, they sent him ahead to Neo-Japan. However, the young Guoliang was orphaned as pro-government corporations gassed the Zhao family home, claiming it to be an “unforeseen industrial accident” (begs the question of what’s a “foreseen industrial accident”). The boy was then raised by his sole remaining family member, his aunt, who renamed him Saito Kurosawa.

Saito joined the military at the height of a Sino-Japanese tensions, hoping that conflict would erupt and he could help retake his ancestral homeland. While corporate interests ensured that said war never broke out, his talents earned him a spot in the elite pararescue unit as a medical specialist. While a capable medic, life in the highly corrupt and ineffectual military caused him to grow disillusioned, eventually leading to an early discharge. Saito then used his training to set up a clinic and continued to serve the community with his expertise.



One night, a pair of Ronins, hired to silence a high-value individual, attacked the clinic. They killed indiscriminately, cutting down all the staff and patients in their path, hoping to disguise the assassination as a random massacre. Saito fought back and managed to kill one Ronin, but his resistance ultimately proved ineffectual, as the Ronin’s partner proceeded to incapacitate him. A second group of Ronins, hired to secure the HVI, eventually arrived to chase off the attackers, allowing the injured Saito to survive the event.

Saito's aunt was among the casualties. Having lost his homeland, his country and now his family, the despairing ex-medic abandoned his Hippocratic oath to pursue revenge. With no gods, kings or masters, Saito went down the path of a ronin, like the many abandoned killers before him.

Enhancement:

A-grade right arm (10,000) - Saito lost his arm during the attack on the clinic. His new arm’s main function is to stabilize itself during trauma care. However, it also allows the user to absorb recoil from his weapons, and has a built in defibrillator (see Built-in Stun Knuckles equipment entry)

Equipment:

Trade tools (1,000) – A variety of gadgets for the discerning cybercorp merc. Of note is a medical laser-scalpel. It allows medics to cut open flesh while cauterizing the surrounding tissue. However, it has trouble burning through sub-dermal armour, but will eventually do so given enough time.

Stealth Cloak (2,500) - Saito throws this over himself and the patient as a last ditch measure to buy him time to stabilise and extract the wounded.

Medigel x10 (2,500)
Trauma Solution x10 (10,000)
Stun knuckles (250) - Saito's stun knuckles are unique in that they double as defibrillators as well.

Combat grade armor (5000)

B grade rifle (1000)

E-nades x4 (1,000) - Non-lethal Smoke, Flash, IR&UV Disruptive nades.

Jetmatic (10,000)- A combination of equipment which allows Saito to boost, wall-run, vault and generally get around the concrete jungle like a caffeinated monkey. (Imagine Titanfall parkour)

High quality forged IDENT (2,000)
Forged Firearm license (2,500),
Designer Chems x2 (2,000) - Medical Quality Drugs.
