Character history:Sable doesnt talk about his past. Though it is clear he spent allot of time in Britain as he has British accent, though it has a slight American twang that only westerners would notice, and only some of the time. He intends to work for the Valentine Institute as a freelance.
How did he find out about the zone? Hes smart, and researches allot of different subjects. The official term for what he does is Political Risk Analysis and Global Arms Market Analysis, however this is just a side hobby as he is actually trained in detective work. While he was still in college Chernobyl appeared on his radar. At first it was nothing more than a passing interest into the effects of radiation longterm on the ecosystem. It was only later in University that it kept appearing again on his radar. There was military activity in the area which is nothing new, however he had detected a string of cover-ups by Russia dating as early as the 1990s, after the fall of the soviets! Logic dictates that there is nothing of value to cover up so long after the meltdown. So why all the secrecy? After a while he managed to translate some science papers out of Ukrainian on the issue and found unusual phenomena reports and anomalies. Always being interested in science he decided to investigate for himself. He took out a bank loan to do his masters in criminology aswell as a gap year funding. He then promptly went to the Ukraine.
Equipment: I know im going overboard about the gear. But this is how i have my fun. Also a fun fact is that most of this will not come to more than 8 or 9 thousand dollars. However if you ever find yourself in a nuclear apocolypse, you might want to look up this gear list, its significantly better than the stuff the army uses. The only stuff i actually would say is modern is the fabrics i use. The guns are old AF and are real world second hands not produced anymore. If you dont like the detail i've put in then oh well, i had fun and learnt allot compiling this list. But i'd really like to see how it plays out in the zone.
