Bio

Hi! I’m Mac!
…or Dmitri… or Die… or Slick… or Clover… or Trace…

…Obviously, none of these is my real name, (and by now you might have an inkling of an idea as to which fandom I came from before) so I don’t really mind being called using any of the names aforementioned above or by my character’s name when we talk in OOC. However, don’t mistake me or my character as the same entity. As I’ve said before “IC =/= OOC”

IRL, I am a 21 year old attending college as a 4th year an extendee Bachelor of Arts and Communication Student. I major in Speech Communication and minor in Broadcasting (journalism). Oh and I’m not a native English speaker so I might not catch some references, idioms, or metaphors. I will most likely ask you OOC for clarifications on some things because I sometimes misunderstand definitions despite being supposedly fluent in English.

Anyway, I’d like to think that I’m a fairly carefree person. It means that I’ll let us get away with doing a lot of shit (we’ll probably do a lot of crazy shit tbh), and my friends say that I’m pretty friendly too so I guess we can take their word for it. But, as all humans are bound to be, I do have my limits. With that, I wouldn’t say “tread lightly” with me. But I will say “let’s be decent” at least. Soo... Let’s just see where it goes, yeah?



Okay. Now for credibility.

I have been roleplaying on and off for... 5 or 6-ish years now. I used to roleplay in tumblr(dot)com for a couple of years before stopping for half a year, and then it became an on and off thing that ended up with me missing out on a lot of things IC and IRL. It became a nuisance and a source of frustration for me since I couldn’t keep up with my character’s life and my own life so I had to stop. I just didn’t have enough time to play as my characters (plural) on a regular basis while also balancing my social and college life so I had to stop doing it , kinda. So here I am, trying to get back at the swing of things since I would like to believe that I generally have my shit together now.

If you want to contact me, feel free to tag me in posts or send me a PM for more personal matters. But if you want to contact me regularly I suggest that you ask for my Discord account in private because I’m most often online there than here. Just don’t forget to introduce yourself and where we met though, okay?

So...... There we go. I felt like I’ve wanted to add something but I’m not quite sure what it was so let’s just awkwardly end this introduction here. I hope you have fun. Before you go, have my uwu face:

Matija had been patiently waiting for everyone to talk more to the new girl for more information. However, she did not seem too keen on elaborating why she was there, or why a blind irl would even be there in the first place. After all, she seemed more like a burden than an asset. Matija kept that thought to herself and hoped that someone else would ask it for her until she herself found it fitting to ask again in another manner.

"From the dossiers, I get the feeling they're expecting the assassin, Maverick, to be the sharpshooter, we'll figure out proper roles and discuss how your talents can help out a little closer to the target. It's nearly a 12 hour journey to Zargos. I'll be in the cockpit, getting ready to take off. Until then, dismissed, I guess"

When Stryker somewhat confirmed that she was not to become a sharpshooter, the siren let out a small sigh of relief that she would not be forced to take that gun that she begrudgingly carries especially on assasination missions. After all, no need carry 17 pounds worth of bull just to down a few potential enemies. "Make us proud, Mavey!" she chimes cheerfully just as Stryker left the War Room.

Inside the room was mostly a seemingly fast paced conversation between the slender woman and the guy with the robot arm that Matija mostly blocked out out of habit. She was mostly eyeing the blind girl because she seems to stand out the most, regardless of how funny that sounded to her. She, however, reacted to Stryker's voice coming through the comms system with a tilt of her head towards the direction of the sound. "Attention everyone, we're shippin' out. Might get a bit rocky for a second when we exit Chronos Station's artificial atmosphere, so you might wanna hold on to something"

"I hate this part," the siren muttered to herself as she plants her feet to the ship's flooring and held on to railings nearby. That Benny guy seemed to have helped the blind girl hold on to her baggage and said something about her fixing the bionic arm if it broke. It her chuckle a bit at the thought of that Amy chick fixing up a bionic arm which entertained her till the ship stabelized and she could no longer feel the weight of the ship pressing against her in order to breach the planet's gravitational field.




The next thing that Matija registered in her head was Lataniva asking Amy about her disability and its liability to their mission which the siren nodded to in agreement.

"I understand your apprehensive attitude towards me. But let me assure you they wouldn't even think twice about putting me on board this ship if they thought I'd be more of a liability than an asset to the team..." The human confidently defended herself and her capabilities as apt enough before addressing that Benny guy again for her luggage and left. Matija still doubted her, but thought that she should be here for a reason. Either she's a great actress, or she has something else in her sleeve.

"For me to control someone, I need a bit of time. It’s not something that could be done in the middle of a violent encounter or when there is a close time-limit. However, yes. If there’s a relatively safe time, an easy instruction to make and we can spare fifteen minutes to an hour, I could send someone to destroy the base from within."

Lataniva's response disappointed her, as it was shown in some materials that she saw before that there were some people capable of doing so in almost an instant. "Haven't seen a psionic working first hand before. Is this fifteen minute thing normal or can really strong ones get in people's heads and stuff quicker? I mean, no offense. I think you're the first of your kind I've ever seen before past videos and other holos."

With a yawn, the siren looks around at the now more empty room before addressing no one in particular. "So. I forgot to ask. Does this thing have a tub somewhere or something? It'd be nice to have a little soak before we get to the Zargos system. Or bath." She turns her attention back to Lataniva and perked up a pleading smile. "Latte? What do you think about freshening up? Unlike the guys here, I think we need to smell less like savages and sweat, don't you agree?"

@Crossfire@Xandrya@PlatinumSkink@Rultaos
i've finally managed to get some free time in between doing college things and life. will attempt to put together something now. :)


edit:
apologies for the lackluster IC.
"I hope you lads don't mind if I move most o' my tools and substances into the lab area, be a lot easier to craft my explosives from there than in my room."

Matija's mind paused when that cheerful sounding guy said that he would stay in the lab. "The... lab? Isn't that the same floor with the empty spaces?" She felt worried with the lack of relative peace that she may not have considering that this guy said he works with explosives. "You're not going to make things explode all the time, right? Oh, Dawsonny? The lab is sound-proof, right?" Matija stared at the officer with her white eyes and tried to smile as cutely as she could for someone with pointed teeth.

As the odd lady and some Benny guy placed down their suggestions, Matija started bouncing up and down while flailing both of her arms excitedly."Oooh! Ooh! I suggest we come in loud and proud and give them the good'ol fuck 'em up but not kill all of them. Like, maybe get some people thrown off somewhere or something. Like, maybe knock them out? So Vina here can control their minds and get them to destroy the place from the inside while we keep the other people occupied?" She pauses, realizing that there may not be people there. "Uh... If there are people there, I guess? 'Sides, I don't trust these guys to keep us alive."

When no one had anything else to say, Matija stretched before speaking, then towards the door to exit. "Oh yeah. People call me Brown Recluse, Brown, Recluse, or even Spider sometimes. But brown seems offensive so I kinda get people to not use that one. If you need me, I'll be downstairs."




Within an hour, Matija had managed to take some of the unused spaces in the lower deck as a small space for herself. She had asked for some of the empty containers in the cargo bay for her to use as makeshift walls for her makeshift room. She had also taken a couple of unused matresses, pillows, and linens for herself. Now with her own "room", Matija starts dressing herself in her favorite and oversized stolen shirt before removing everything else but her underwear. Soon, she found herself asleep in her own little bubble of comfort.

An hour passes and the ship's speakers crackled into life, awakening the sleeping woman. Someone said something about heading to the war room, which Matija groaned since she felt as if she was just getting the rest that she had been wanting. But a job is a job and she had a reason to follow these guys. For now.

Groggily, the woman stumbles around the ship's halls and towards the War room where everyone seems to have assembled into before she could. For some reason, a guy had also been dismissed from the group. Something about him being taken into another special mission of sorts. She tried not to pay heed and instead leaned towards the table at the center of the room.

"So the techs wanted to test the briefing relay system, but that can wait 'til next time. When a job comes in for you all, I'll be transmitting it directly to Stryker, and he'll get to deliver the briefings himself. With any luck, I never set sights on any of you again once I leave this ship. Now then, the Helsin job. Once the Revenant gets in the Zargos system, you hold on the fringes and launch a boarding party in a shuttle. The other shuttle is going right behind it, with a sharpshooter on board. On the shit long range scanners they're expected to be using, the shuttles will resemble a small cargo transport, won't pay it any mind, especially when an imposing frigate like the Reenant drifts within their range, and their attempts at hailing the vesel are met with silence. Once you're in range, the sharpshooter uses a weapon outfitted with a graviton-field emitter to damage their IFF reader antenna, located here on the facility. I'm sure you can figure out what to do from there, enter the facility, either by talking or blasting your way aboard, then do what you do. Now let's assume it truly is a Federation outpost, and they mobilize fighter craft. A few will remain behind on the ship to man the guns and fight them off. If not, and it's just a mining facility, hold your fire until the crew finishes up, and then frag the facility. No survivors in either case. There's more details on the briefing file if you want them, but I can't be bothered to read it. I know Stryker would love to though, being the commander of this outfit and all, he's here to please his crew, ain't that right buddy boy? So address all questions to him, because I'm fuckin' out of here. Oh, and of course, Executor Lara didn't want to leave you short-handed, she's nice like that, so we've got one last recruit coming on. My men are bringing her aboard as we speak. Play nice huh? Been a fucking pleasure"


"Uh. I guess?"

Dawson spoke almost without letting anyone butt in. The man seemed to hate even breathing the same air as they are and it bothered Matija. Mostly because she felt that the man would not hesitate to kill them if only they weren't useful somehow.

Then came another person. She was another woman and seemed to be a little off with where she's looking.

"Heyy! Welcome to the party! We're going to blow up a space station. I guess you're the new guy? Er. Gal?" Matija walked towards the new person and extended her hand towards her. "Name's Sandra. S-sandra B-bollocks..." Matija was witholding her laughter even before she could properly say her name. "What's yours? What're you in for?"

@PlatinumSkink@Rultaos@Crossfire@Xandrya
hol y fckns ht i'm sorry school kinda. ate me up. also political bs... i'm going to read and try to make a post now. i'm very sorry for delaying.
i think we can depart now
A beautiful woman responds to Matija's queries. She seemed fairly out of place from the rest, considering how she looked. She also feels familiar to Matija but more like an interesting person that she passed by more than anything. Still, Matija knew that someone had to be someone fairly nasty to be ”recruited” into this project.

“We’re recruited because we’re the worst of the worst. We should cooperate or we will be punished. Ship is wired with surveillance, attempts to hack or so will result in ship shutting down. That guy’s Stryker, the captain. That guy’s Hadrain, the chef, report dietery needs and allergies to him. The Kzargett’s Vavnr, and his bowels aren’t long enough to digest salad. That guy’s Sasha, the medic, report medical conditions to him.’

The mushroom skeleton’s a pilot and volunteer, except he’s not a volunteer because he’s being paid. Captain and mushroom had a fight because mushroom’s going to be in his way. Chef and Kzargett had friendly conversation. Anyone who shares room with that guy will die from lack of sleep. I’m Lataniva, psionic and mind reader. We’re not to kill one another when Captain Dawson isn’t present. That’s it.”


Matija listened intently at the woman, and glanced at whoever she may gesture at. She found herself amused and feeling wasteful for being late considering that there seems to be more interesting people around here than she thought there was. Especially the mushroom skeleton and the disabled guy holding a metallic arm who apparently doesn't sleep.

”We have one hell of a ragtag team here, Miss..? Mmm... What's your name again? La, what?” Matija noted how delicate the other woman seemed and left it at that.

Then came the actual tour. Stryker took them into the cargo bay and Matija was almost tempted to ask if she could bunk there instead had it not been for those lousy shuttles. She glared at them, as if challenging them to fight for their territory, but was disappointed to find that the shuttles wouldn't bother with her. But Stryker seemed to be on a busy schedule, so the little crew of theirs moved around the lower deck with general disinterest. However, there were some spaces that seemed like a waste to leave as is. She told herself that she would take those spaces over whether they like it or not, and so left a piece of paper with a horribly drawn spider face and the word “claimed” written on it. Good thing she asked the crew of her transport shuttle earlier. But the rest of the tour was a bummer for Matija. She mostly just wanted to make a little nest of comfort for herself before they get towed around like the illegal conscripts that they are.

"Helsin Mining has deep connections to the Federation, so we figure it's one of two things going on here. Either Helsin is strip-mining planets illegally, or the Federation set this station up to recon Alliance space, keep tabs on events in our territory, maybe even gather intel. No matter the reason for it's appearance, Alliance Command wants it gone. A strategist is drawing up a suggested plan of attack, should be ready by the time the engines get straightened away. I'll be back before you depart, until then, you're all to stay on board, explore, claim your rooms and whatnot. Hopefully you'll all be out of my face within the hour"


Thankfully, their first assignment impled that they can fuck up this one space station. ”Heh. Being forced into this is turning out to be great, don't 'cha think, guys?” she asked nobody in particular as she studied the image as much as they would allow her. When sated, she looks at everyone else again, studying everything that she could about their physiology and maybe try to infer things about them. ”I just wanna announce that the unused spaces in the lower deck has already been claimed, okay? So, what now?”
@PlatinumSkink thanks, man. you're great.
@Crossfire imgur should be good enough as long as you remember your account. ;P
woop! that took longer than expected. haha! sorry about that. a lot of things just happened and life was... well. a female dog. but thanks for waiting or tolerating long enough. i hope the opening was decent enough for the delay. :P
Location: Rif Research Facility, Haghich System

“Come all you pretty fair maids, whoever you may be. Who love a jolly sailor bold that ploughs the raging sea,” a rich and beautiful female voice reverberates within the walls of the innermost portion of the facility. The source of the voice is a figure that is walking gracefully with the slow tune towards the middle of the room.

”While up aloft, in storm or gale, from me his absence mourn, and firmly pray, arrive the day, he home will safe return.”

The scene would have been serene if not for the unconscious bodies that lay on the floor, or the environmental armor and helmet that she wears. Dim red lights glow from the helmet's one-way glass that obscures the singing woman's face. The lights would appear like some spider's eyes and fangs, befitting the scene around her.

”My name it is Maria, a merchant's daughter fair. And I have left my parents and three thousand pounds a year.”

With practiced elegance, she disarms the final alarm that protected the data card that she was sent to take. Its data was said to hold some information about an advanced combat A.I. prototype that was banned in almost a dozen star systems because of its ability to learn and adapt in an almost incomprehensible speed despite its size.

”My heart is pierced by Cupid, I disdain all glittering gold, There is nothing can console me but my jolly sailor b--”

Her song was stopped with the sound of explosion behind her and smoke grenades being tossed in the room. She was about to turn towards the source of the noise but an electric slug was shot towards her before she could finish her motion. The woman falls to the ground, convulsing as the strong electric shocks passed through her body, and all turns to black.




Location: Unknown, Unknown system

The woman wakes, but does not open her eyes nor make a sound. She tries to listen in or even feel for her surroundings, but nothing useful came out of it other than the fact that she was lying down and that she was feeling particularly uncomfortable and restrained in something tight. There was also something on her face, but she dares not open her eyes to see what it was. The woman laid unmoving for a few moments, not wanting to alert those who apprehended her that she was awake but the silence and emptiness of the room was deafening to her. The shrill sound of nothingness screamed at her loudly, urging her to scream back at it in hopes of filling the void. Thankfully, for her, lights flooded the room so fast and so brightly that it forced her to wince.

“We know you're awake. Stand up and sit down.” a raspy male voice called out to her from the other side of the room. The woman was then forced to open her eyes slowly to allow herself to adapt to the sudden change in lighting. She would have pulled her arms up to cover her eyes, had it not been tied down, in a loose sense of the term.

Matija looks towards the direction of the voice and sees herself in a white padded room with three other people. One of them is a man wearing a black office type suit which sat on a chair, just in front of two armed men which she presumed as his guards or escort of sorts. ”Who-” As she spoke, she notices that she could not move her mouth as easily as she would have wanted to. Looking down, she also realises that she is bound, not with ropes or anything that she was used to. Instead, she finds herself inside a strait jacket.

”YOU!” she shouts out angrily at the man. With some effort, she manages to stand up and run towards the suited man. Before she could reach him, one of the guards moves to intercept her and then hit her with the butt of their rifle to knock her down. The same armed guard then points the rifle towards her as she crumples to the floor.

”FfffFFFFUCK! I SWEAR, I'LL RIP YOUR NECK OFF'A YOU!”

“Real cute, Holmström. Tell me, how the hell would you do that with that muzzle, hm?” the man in the suit spoke with amusement in his rough voice as he wordlessly orders the guard to stand down.

Matija was about to retort, but she was stopped when the suited man spoke again.

“But whatever. I was sent to this crazy ward to invite you to a party, freak. It's called the Revenant project. I suggest you don't refuse.” The man said cooly and adjusted his tie while saying so.

”Tch! And what if I do refuse, huh? What're YOU gonna do? Report back to H.Q. and tell your boss? Why don't you go do that, pig?” Matija defiantly spoke, challenging the man to do something to her as a response, but got nothing more than an unamused chuckle.

“Funny that you should say that,” the suited man grinned as he moved his face menacingly closer to Matija's. “I mean, I can just get you stuck here for life. Or even order these guys to kill you. It'll be a favor to the entirety of the galaxy anyway. Or... I have a better idea! I could give a go signal for the manhunt for... Hmm... Who was that again? Pops? I wonder if he has enemies willing to know where he is too...”

Matija's face darkened at the realization, which then turned into seething rage. ”DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE!” She headbutts the suited man's face, disorienting him and causing him to reel over. The guards swiftly retaliated by hitting her with the butt of their rifles, again, and kicking her till she could no longer fight back.

“YOU BITCH!” The suited man hisses as he holds his bloody nose. “You're gonna pay for that! GUARDS!”

With that command, Matija was dragged out of her cell and into another wing of the facility where the rest of the night was pierced by her readily weakening screams.




Location: Chronos Station, two weeks later

The last shuttle comes in the station utterly late. The disappointment shows in the rest of the crew's tired faces but they continued on in the name of professionalism. As some turn to face the shuttle as it landed, more crew turned towards the ship as the doors opened and an ancient earth song blaringly plays inside its cabin.

“IF YOU WANNA BE MY LOVER, YOU GOTTA GET WITH MY FRIENDS! MAKE 'EM LAST FOREVER, FRIENDSHIP NEVER ENDS,” was the lyrics of the song before the pilot finally turns the speakers off with an obvious look of relief to his face. One of the station's floor managers rush towards the pilot with obvious anger in her face while the pilot and the rest of the crew explained. One of them pushes out someone bound in a wheelchair while another takes out a large heavy looking hard-case. She was bound in a strait jacket and had a muzzle on her grinning mouth.

”So this is the party?” Matija asked as she was being released from her wheelchair-bound torture. ”You guys look so shady and edgy-” she pauses when she sees the skeleton ”Except you. You look cool, Sir- er, Ma'am?” she tilts her head as a querie towards the skeleton's preferences.

”Oh, yeah. Uh, yeah. Bill?” Matija turns towards the person that pushed her wheelchair. “You're gonna untie me and remove the muzzle now, right? That was what your boss told us.” She pokes her tongue out at Bill while she smiles at him. The man sighs, obviously tired of her, but complies to his orders anyway.

The odd-eyed woman turns back towards the people whom she presumed was her new team of sorts, while Bill sluggishly untied her, and smiled at them again. ”So, what'd I miss?”
