Foley Barca

Name: Foley Barca

Age: 16

Appearance

Bio/Summary: Foley was adopted by his grandfather, a scholar from Aquaria who had come Orello to study the old ruins. Raised among the fort's soldiers and under the teachings of a scientist and philosopher, he up well feed and strong. His intelligence however is where he is keenly noted, books of military history and strategy vanished into his mind alongside little known works on black powder and combustion. Often traveling with his grandfather to ruins they would debate history and the truth in myth. Hiding his vessel from others under orders from his grandfather, he did not want his only family to die in battle.

This ended when his grandfather fell ill, by then a young man of fourteen and having become skilled with a bow and knife. He did his best to avoid a soldiers life, knowing it was not the path his grandfather wanted for him, spending over a year working for the brewers and doing everything else he could. It was never enough and soon the old man passed away, with nothing left he revealed his skill to the commander of the fort.

Vessel: Sun's Wisdom

Dormant- Appearing as two leather bound tomes containing military advice and tactical guides. Granting mental clarity and telepathy to the bearer

Active- Appearing as gold and black ornate bow and quiver, the arrows from this weapon once fired blaze like a rising sun becoming golden beams of light once fired. The quiver seems to never empty no matter how many arrows are pulled from it.

Abilities: Foley is by decent combatant however his true power lay in his ability to quick adapt and work with others. His telepathy and ability to see battles objectively rather than as passionate conflicts allows him to fully assess the situation quickly. Mentally linking with others he can share plans at a lightning pace and enact them with extreme efficiency.

Equipment: Long knife, his grandfather's journal, and notes on how to brew Orello ale.

Trivia/Other: He loves to perform acrobatics and climb things, and often slips off to the highest point he can find to think.

@KoL I figured I'd drop my CS here see what you think. If he doesn't work I can rework him as needed.

War Notes [recruiting new players]

Very interested. I'll work up a CS if your still taking people.

Souls of Steel: A Giant Mecha RP

Ariin nodded. "Sounds like a good plan, I'd suggest a three volley rapid fire to ensure total annihilation. That will however melt the barrel. Two volleys might do it, but I'd overkill it then not accomplish the task, however I would be dead weight to the squad if the barrel melts down I'd have to evac. No point in having me hang around if I can't fight." He said sighing.

Moving the Paladin along slowly he moved to a good targeting point. "Sending targeting control over to you, be careful with the Pompey and remember to adjust for the weight of the shots. These are solid tungsten shells." He added, not wanting to over or undershoot the target. His mech might afforded him plenty of rounds so he need not worry about amount count as heavily but he did hate to miss shots.

Souls of Steel: A Giant Mecha RP

@Jasonhero I mean Jason and Ariin could sync up targeting data, Ariin implant allows him to process targeting information and make corrections faster just by glancing at the image. (The joy's of technology. Of course you fry the implant and he gets brain damage.) If it's the last shot, Paladin can fire three volleys. (Six shots.) With the cooling system forced into overdrive. The barrel can fuse and he'd screwed completely if anything else shows up to fight.

On a side note the last time he fired the triple barrel it melted the barrel. Oh and Ariin's aim has been quite off today, he's missed well... A lot of shots.

Souls of Steel: A Giant Mecha RP

Paladin lurched some as he took aim at the towers, nice stationary target who had no clue what was about to hit them. Letting off a volley from Paladin, Ariin listened of course they all knew their frames better than each other what they needed was dedicated teams. Fast attack group, heavy support team, and front line teams. An arrangement suits to help break what was a rather large squad into small fire teams able to be tasked and depend upon each with ease. He'd have to voice his thoughts later, right now they needed the towers down.

Turning he locked in a second volley and fired a second volley at the other target further out, they were easy shots to the blast alone even if he missed would probably collapse that part of the wall. His gun was more akin ground to orbit weaponry than anything else. "You can all go on ahead, Paladin's too slow and in tight spaces my guns practically useless. I can stay outside and provide cover if you need to make a retreat, I'd suggest our other heavy mechs do the same." He added letting them know his opinions on the matter.

Souls of Steel: A Giant Mecha RP

@Jasonhero Hmmm that would be interesting.

I think if Ariin dies, I'll just have one of his sisters forced into the program to replace him. Assumption being that they don't need to clone him if they have more of the stock he came from.

Find the best from all of them and use that one.

Souls of Steel: A Giant Mecha RP

@Ariamis I'll get a post up in the next day or so.

Blackshields: The Horus Heresy [Warhammer 30K]

@Jbcool I don't know what else to do.

Souls of Steel: A Giant Mecha RP

@Jasonhero @Mr Rage Well think about it like this we've lost any form of cover in narrow hallways. Paladin is not going to be able to dodge turret fire and he's too slow to avoid it. So then the next option is slowly advance popping every turret as travel with the large mechs having to single file or at best walk next to each other. Were sitting ducks and it will take to long, logically we should send lighter faster mechs to the back door.

The beat stick Brigade. (Yes I gave it a name. It fits.) Takes a slow advance clearing turrets so they exit through the front of the building.

However I don't want to Meta to hard so Ariin might suggest this and Jason can ignore and charge down the hall way trying to be a hero and get to Serah first. Ariin's got a mind for strategy and a lot training plus now combat experience and... A deeper understanding of Paladin so he's not as reckless as he once was.
