Deep sea fishing, spear gun fishing, bow fishing. Able to set lobster and crab traps. Knows how to hunt for clams, oysters, octopus and squid. Knows some uses for marine life in a medicinal fashion.
Water extreme sports - surfing, windsurfing, jet-skiing, and water skiing.

Bio:
Being the only child of her parents she spent most of her days with her father on the boat as he ran a small business of taking people out on the weekend trips deep sea fishing. Her mother worked out of the home, handling the office duties for the family business, even after Zephy took over. They were a happy family that allowed their daughter to grow and learn what she wanted. Growing up in Miami she was use to being out in the heat and humidity all the time, though the cooler air on the ocean was always welcoming.
As she grew from a child to a young teen her father gave her more responsibilities on the boat, mainly being in charge of making lunch for the men and women they had on the boat with them. Learning how to prep and cook fish as well as lobster, crab and clams gave her knife handling skills. She picked up free-diving while learning to inspect the hull and for doing minor boat repair. SCUBA diving, spear and bow fishing came later as she got into her late teens, and quickly became a divemaster, adding scuba-diving tours to her father’s business, which soon became her business. Her father passed away in an unfortunate incident on the water with a shark.
Not long after her father passed away, her mother and herself chose to sell their house and invest more into the family business by moving to live on the boat at the marina itself.

In her free time, she took to sport free-diving as well as surfing, windsurfing, and jet-skiing. Needless to say she is almost more comfortable in and on the water than she is on land. It almost doesn’t move right to her.

When word of the outbreak started, Zephy and her mother had pulled away from the marina to seek the safety in the open waters they were use to. After a few days had passed they headed back into the marina to be able to get a few things they needed but didn’t grab. During their resupply trip Karen and Zephy got separated, leaving Zephy to get back to the yacht herself. Returning every so often, hoping to find her mother. She makes a few runs now and again for supplies she can gather from other boats, using the tender boat and leaving her yacht anchored a ways away from shore.

Disability/Fear:
Suffers from Diver’s Ear now and again. She has a healthy fear of large sharks, most over the 5ft she doesn’t tangle with.

My apologies folks... I had to move suddenly and didn't really have time to get the word out to everywhere at once... But having just got internet back this morning...
@Foster - nibble nibble nibble
I think I am going to go with a more normal color instead of whatever weird almost fictional sounding (at least to me) color I suggested earlier.

I am thinking either silver or gold.

<Snipped quote by TheUnknowable>That is what I did for another RP I am in.

DC hero Guardian
*has the Guardian suit from Supergirl
*Captain America's powers but...
*given to him temporarily by a serum like Patriot from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
*the guy is paralyzed like the main character of M.A.N.T.I.S. (1994-1995 Fox TV show)

I just realized there is very little of him that is Guardian. Pretty much Guardian in name and appearance only.


I loved M.A.N.T.I.S. when I saw it as a kid. I wish I could find it again and rewatch!
<Snipped quote by Tearstone>

They were killed by Snart, so I am thinking not a lot. The Legends and Rip's new Time Bureau may have something to say though.


Ok, wasn't sure if we were using the continuity of the time masters being destroyed.... Also the Time Bureau thing is a spoiler.. I haven't gotten into Season 3 yet.

okay, so here's a question - What do the Time Masters have to say about this?

Also, I'm down for the idea. I've got some ideas to go with it.
@jaybreezy - I just tagged you, and everybody else so you guys would see that at least something was happening here. Post mostly aimed at OP, but I'm starting to think this thing is DOA.
@DepressedSoviet - Hey uhhhh... so is this actually gonna happen or were you just being a c*** tease? Not to be rude or anything but.. it's approaching two weeks with no word from you, OP.

@GrimmReconz@Oak7ree@Lady Selune@CaptainBritton@jaybreezy@Foster
@DepressedSoviet - Please keep me advised, will be on station for a while.
As a long-time Palladium fan... As well as loving RECON and RECON Advanced, I'm down!

I'd probably want to play Elijah Dodgers again from Jungle Fever. It was an RP that was fun and had a blast but the GM had to bail shortly after it started. I got into that RP because it reminded me a lot of RECON, as well as things like Full Metal Jacket, Apocalypse Now, The Predator franchise, Tears of the Sun and so on.

I'd be in favor of running as part of an Army LRRP (Lurp in the slang/lingo). I would also swing being a native operating in the area or attached to a team. I would also be up for a mercenary group, perhaps in the style of The Expendables, or really any merc group.

This is also the war that created the U.S. Navy SEALs. So there's that.
