Murder for Fun and Profit: Mercenaries in London

Chris received the call before the message from Pale Horse even hit MercServ. His phone began to vibrate as he walked through the deserted streets of inner London, the cloak around his shoulders making him near invisible from the back even if the sniper rifle in his hands and the open front gave him away otherwise. He answered the call.

“Mr Walton. We’ve obtained information that Pale Horse have discovered the location of one of our secure servers and are planning an attack; I’m sure they’ll send out a recruitment message on the MercServ soon and the CDA is planning to make a counter offer to defend the location instead. Can we count on your services as usual?”

Since this whole fiasco had begun Chris had worked for the CDA several times, worked for them exclusively in fact, which made his situation a little different from most of the mercenaries in the city. His loyalty didn’t depend on who was willing to pay the most at the time and that was something that was well known, even if much else about him wasn’t. He was essentially on retainer for CDA at this point, something that would end if he ever so much as considered working for Pale Horse for any reason, but for the moment it came with certain benefits; they sent information to his goggles while he was in the field, they gave him a discount on ammunition or equipment purchased from them…

“We’re offering to match what Pale Horse is paying, with advanced payment, plus a small loyalty bonus if you agree.”

… and they paid him more. It meant he could never accept an offer from Pale Horse, even if the pay was better, but that wasn’t something Chris cared about anyway.

“Send me the location. Transfer the money to the usual place.”

@KhKj I think I'm going to have to drop out of this I'm afraid. I can't get a post together no matter how hard I try and I don't want to hold this up any longer.

Ryuhei Takagi

Basic Information:

Name: Ryuhei Takagi
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Height: 5’ 9”
Weight: 157lbs
Hair Colour: Black
Eye Colour: Brown
Occupation: Assistant training instructor
Power Level: 1365
Ki Colour: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇

Personality:
A disciplined, focused individual who always manages to keep a level head no matter the situation, Ryuhei is someone who is dedicated to his chosen path and seeks only to live a good and respectable life. He is polite, friendly if a bit distant with strangers, a little bit cocky at times but maintains humility in the face of defeat.

However this was no always the case. Ryuhei was a troubled child, one who was often getting in trouble or starting fights and it looked like he was well on his way to becoming a trouble teenager as well. He was a delinquent with anger management issues and a distain for authority who was destined for life as a thug or criminal. The Ryuhei now is a changed person, but he still feels that old anger rising to the surface sometimes and worries that that side of him is not completely gone, merely suppressed.

Biography:
To Ryuhei, fighting is the most important thing in the world. Not because he enjoys fighting, though he does, or because he likes winning, which he does, but because he credits martial arts with saving his life. When he fights he is able to feel the progress he has made, see the results of his training. When he fights he can show his master that his teachings worked. When he fights in a tournament he can win titles, earn prize money and show the world how great kyokushin karate is; he can give something back.

As a child Ryuhei grew up in a working class household in Kyoto. His father was a construction worker and his mother worked a series of retail jobs; they had a comfortable life, but money was always a little tight and there was no room for luxury. Ryuhei was a normal boy with a normal childhood, average in school and with a close group of friends, he was happy. As he grew older however he began to fall in with a bad crowd; nothing too bad at first, they were still only children after all, but he began to misbehave at school and at home, his grades fell and his attitude changed for the worse.

Over time and as he grew older Ryuhei fell more and more into a delinquent lifestyle; graffiti, vandalism and shoplifting were common occurrences, as was running from the police or being dragged home by an officer. Once he was in his early teens, Ryuhei was regularly getting involved in fights for one reason or another, enough that he got quite good at it and was even starting to earn a reputation as a dangerous individual among his peers.

It was during one of these fights, a routine clash with a rival “gang” from another school, when he was first approached by Master Goichi. He and a couple of friends had been ambushed on the walk home from the arcade by a dozen students from a nearby school that they had fought in the past; outnumbered as they were it was a surprise for his attackers when Ryuhei managed to beat them all, though both of his friends were also knocked out in the fight.

It was as he was preparing to beat another kid’s face in that a middle aged man approached him. He’d been watching Ryuhei fight and asked him why he felt the need to continue to beat a defeated opponent, Ryuhei replied that it was as revenge for the ambush and so that they would know not to try this again. The man asked him if he would stop just because of something like that and Ryuhei had to admit that the answer was no, he would find another way to get back at the person who did this to him. The man asked if Ryuhei wanted to become stronger; the answer was yes.

That was how he met Master Goichi and that was how he became his student. Master Goichi began to train Ryuhei as his dojo, even waiving the normal membership fee that he charged, and taught him the art of kyokushin karate. Goichi had strict rules for his students; a code of conduct, obedience to the master while in the dojo, a commitment to always give your training 1000% or your effort, and no fighting outside of spars. To break any of these rules was to be expelled. Ryuhei wasn’t sure it was worth the effort.

He changed his mind the first time he saw Goichi demonstrate a Hundred-man Kumite.

Master Goichi took the term a little more literally than most. Rather than fight one hundred separate spars he simply challenged one hundred people to fight him at once. People of all skill levels, some of them not even practitioners of kyokushin but coming from other disciplines instead. Goichi beat them all.

After then Ryuhei dedicated himself to his training whole heartedly, rapidly advancing in his skill level and physical strength. Although he originally agreed to join the dojo so that he could grow strong enough to beat anyone who tried to challenge him or his friends on the street, his masters rules prevented him from using his karate for this purpose; even without this rule, he found himself spending so much time training that he no longer had time to get into trouble and was only able to see his friends in school.

His parents began to see another change in Ryuhei’s personality over time, this one more positive, as the teachings of kyokushin to always be courteous took root. His dedication to his training spread to dedication in other areas and Ryuhei even started to see improvements in his grades at school. Over time he began to spend less and less time with the bad crowd he was a part of, his friends growing tired of his lack of free time and changing attitude. From afar he watched as one by one his friends were kicked out of school or dropped out themselves; he saw the injuries they would bring to school with them from the constant fighting, sometimes missing school or even ending up in the hospital because of them. By reflecting on his past and by watching his potential future play out, he began to realise where the path he was heading down before led and how much Master Goichi had done for him by taking him away from that.

Upon graduating from high school Ryuhei opted not to go to college, but instead to join Master Goichi at the dojo as an assistant teacher. He also began to take part in tournaments, which was something he had done in the past but not at the level he was trying to compete at now, giving any prize money he won back to the dojo along with any titles he matched to win. A few months prior to entering the World Martial Arts Tournament for the first time he reached 4th Dan in kyokushin karate, meaning he had to complete his own Hundred-man Kumite and although he was able to complete it, the experience showed him that he had a lot of progress to make before he could reach his master’s level.

Techniques
• Kaiten Geri [OFFENSIVE] – Also known as the “Kyokushin Wheel Kick”, this technique involve the user performing a forward side roll towards their opponent in the air, rotating their body and striking the opponent with their heel. While already a powerful technique that puts the users full body weight behind the attack, it can be further enhanced by the user empowering their leg with ki energy
• Morote Zuki [OFFENSIVE] – Literally translating as “double handed strike”, while this technique isn’t unique to Kyokushin it is taught to its practitioners as general karate technique. It involves striking the opponent with both hands simultaneously, as separate attacks, in order to make it difficult for them to defend against both at the same time; sacrificing the ability to defend to improve the chance of a hit. This too can be enhanced with ki to make it stronger
•Mae Geri [OFFENSIVE] – A forward snap kick that can be aimed at either the face or the midsection. What makes this snap kick different is that it is designed to strike with either the ball of the foot or the toes instead of with the base of the foot; while a normal front kick is mostly use to push the opponent and create distance, this kick delivers a piercing attack to the chin or the liver. As with all of Ryuhei’s physical attacks, this technique can be enhanced with ki
• Ki Block [DEFENSIVE] – The use of ki energy to strength the body by creating an aura around certain parts of the body. While useful as a defence against physical attacks this technique is most useful at reducing damage caused by other ki-based techniques
•Ki Flash [OFFENSIVE] – One of the few ranged ki attacks Ryuhei knows, this is a short ranged but wide burst of ki release from the palm; it resembles a fire suddenly flaring to life. This technique can be performed with one or two hands, with the two handed version taking longer to prepare but being stronger as a result

Murder for Fun and Profit: Mercenaries in London

Chris "Ghost" Walton

(Nick)Name: Chris “Ghost” Walton
Appearance:


Age: 34
Nationality: British

Weaponry:
L115A3 – The British designation of a modified Arctic Warfare Magnum sniper rifle chambered in .338 Lapua Magnum (8.6x70 mm) ammunition.
FN P90 – Equipped with a silencer and chambered with special sub-sonic rounds, this SMG is intended to be used for engaging enemies at close quarters quietly. Also equipped with an infrared laser sight, invisible to the naked eye but visible through his goggles.

Gadgets:
Optic Camouflage Cloak – The source of Chris’s wholly unoriginal nickname is his optic camouflage cloak, a kind of futuristic ghillie suit which can change its image to blend in to the surroundings. Multiple sensors across its surface scan the colour and texture of the local area and change the appearance of the cloak to match, effectively blending in to the environment. This does not make Chris completely invisible, but over long distances or if he is completely still he can be very hard to make out.

Augmented Reality Goggles – The second major piece of Chris's equipment; a pair of AR goggles which can display various pieces of information to make Chris's live easier. This is mostly used to communicate with CDA command in the field, allowing them to send information directly to his goggles for him to see. They also tie into GPS data and can highlight way-points and potential routes.

In addition to this they automatically adjust to fit light levels. The goggles will dim bright lights and expose dark areas; while not enough to protect him from the intense flash of a stun grenade it will keep the sun out of his eyes, let him see at night and allow him to transition from light to dark areas without needing to wait for his vision to adjust.

Finally, they can be switched to an Infrared mode. In this mode the AR capabilities are disabled but Chris is able to see the thermal radiation given off by people and vehicles, among other things.

Role: Seek and Destroy

Allegiance: CDA

Personality: A career soldier, ex-special forces with the British armed forces, Chris quit the army and moved to the private sector as a mercenary due to… let’s call it a difference of opinions with a superior officer. Working for CDA gives him more freedom to do the kind of work that he is good at and carry out the missions that he believes will benefit people.

Something of a loner, a personality trait which leads him to prefer to work alone, Chris is a quiet and stoic individual. However this is not to say that he is unfriendly, as he can be quite personable when need be.

I, the Demon King, Will Summon My Own Damned Heroes!

Oberon roused slowly, coming back to consciousness gradually before standing up and stretching his aching body; even though the bed of leaves and straw was easily the most comfortable sleeping arrangement he’d had since being reborn spending the night on the hard-packed dirt was a far cry from his comfortable existence back home and it showed. Although, working himself to exhaustion last night probably played a part in his current discomfort as well, even if the results showed that it was more than worth it in the long run.

He was actually surprised by how much progress they had made last night; in some ways he had not been able to achieve everything he had wanted to but in others he had achieved much, much more. He now had every analysis skill he could think of, apparently every analysis skill he could get based on the fusion skill had also gotten. Several of his existing skills had also levelled up as he taught them to the others or used them naturally while learning other skills; the fact that his meditation could now be used on the move, along with his new Gather Light skill, to restore his mana on the move was a huge benefit. The real boon from last night however, were the two new levels he had acquired and the huge number of skill points that came with them.

Even so there was a still a lot he wanted to do today as well. A few things he had not accomplished last night, a few things that he had wanted to try for a while but were not possible until now, and a few ideas he hadn’t had until last night.

He started by assigning his skill points into various skills. “4 points into Keen Sight.” That would be useful now that he was out of the cave; he could see further the next time he went to the treetops t scout the area and since his Alert skill was based on his senses it would also become more useful. “5 points into Minor Heal All.” A spell that could affect multiple targets was something that could act as a basis for a number of other spells; once he had an understanding of how it was done he could work on applying the same principle to his Shield spell, as well as any buffs or de-buffs he learned in the future. “And 6 points into Spiritual Awareness.” He wasn’t sure what this skill would do exactly, but he was curious enough to spend the points to acquire it. Part of him hoped it would help him with something he had been thinking about trying for a while.

Following the others to the creek, Oberon heard the rustling and turned to see the Goblin at the top of the hill. With his newly enhanced sight he probably saw the Goblin more clearly than any of them, but it didn’t help him to recognise the creature. He didn’t think it was one of the Goblin’s that had been with Crispy before, but then he hadn’t paid enough attention to the group to really know. Besides, being this far away from the cave it was more likely to be a different Goblin than one they knew, unless Crispy or Orchid had tried to follow them. “There’s probably another cave around here. We should expect a visit from them sometime soon now that they know we’re here.” It never occurred to him to try and stop the Goblin from making it back to his tribe.

Once the Goblin had disappeared from view the Sprite turned away from the hill back to the creek and drank the cool water until his thirst was quenched. The first thing they should do this morning was find some more food to fill their already dwindling supplies; six creatures went through quite a lot of food as it turned out and it wouldn’t hurt to build up a stockpile. Maybe they could extend their search up into the foothills as well and see if there were any other kinds of plants or creatures they hadn’t found yet in the slightly different environment.

Turning back to the others, Oberon looked over the five other creatures that he had allied himself with and decided to try something that would in all honesty probably fail. “Form Party: Oberon, Mourningstar, Digbie, Torrent, Ash and Reoth.”
