Added "Misc" division for resistance contributors without a big "division" to relate to, such as scouts and medics.

What about British super spies?
Center chest, right under the breast above the stomach. Right side of heart essentially. Any other questions?
Edit: His right

Yeah, I responded.

Haha, they do, I always loved their relationship cause Gambit was always presented as something of a womaniser, but then is in love with and content with a woman he can't touch, it's so cute
Agreed. It's got to be something to do with her being a rough southern bell. It's like the inverse of belladonna, which makes a lot of sense. He probably wants to distance himself from that experience as much as possible at that point, but there's also a familiarity there.

Edit: Though I feel we shouldn't miss the opportunity for them to have a fight at some point, I imagine it could be quite entertaining
Edit: Most def.
Yeah, I just put that cuz he's doing two different jobs here. Spying on the germans and delivering intel back to the crown, while sharing with the resistance, and helping the underground with attacks. I guess he could just be in one for semantics sake.
I posted my dude. Let me know if he's bad, or if something doesn't make sense. I'll probably be posting another character at some point. Maybe a lady...
Actually, I intended on Gambit becoming a hero too, after he stops all this killing he's about to do 
He'll join the X Men shortly thereafter.
Maybe thats when they'll hook up, nosuchthing. Even in this topsyturvy world I still see Rogue and Gambit getting together at some point. They make such a good couple.

Name: Samuel Hammett (Pseudonym: Walter Burnicki)
Age: 38
Country of Origin: Leeds, West Yorkshire, England
Religion: Anglican Christian
Division: Tentatively Kedyw
Appearance: Samuel is a tall and lean glass of water. Coming in at 6’1 and 175 lbs he is by no means intimidating, but that’s almost the point. Samuel can be just another face in the crowd without much need to work. He has soft features and a tiny round nose set under deep blues. His shaved brown hair makes him look a little like a mineworker if he’s in the right clothes. Of course, all of this subverts the dangerous truth that Samuel’s body has been trained into a lithe tool of destruction.
Personality:
Samuel is a smart, calculated sort of individual, who leaves little to chance. He plans meticulously, carefully, yet swiftly. His mind is so used to developing tactics and strategies that it has become second nature for him. The little that he leaves to chance may seem like a great deal to other people, however. Samuel is aggressive in combat maneuvers, dangerously intent on helping the helpless, and haplessly obsessed with skirmishing. This is primarily a trait developed while learning from Columbian guerrillas in the Amazon and his unorthodox training in Ireland, but there is also a deep-seated root for this seemingly reckless behavior. Samuel lost that inherit will to live a long time ago. When he discovered that his only lot in life was the destruction of others, he knew he had to let go of that nagging urge to save one’s own life. He knew that he would have to think about saving others more than he could think of his own life, or his achievements thus far would be mute.
Flaw: Samuel sees his life as continuously expendable. His view in a nutshell: If I do not try, with every breath, to save a life other than my own, then all I am doing is killing for killings sake. In order to fully commit to this assumption, the alternative to which is ultimately damning, Samuel realized that he would have to sever that desperate desire to continue living. To him, it isn’t a state of suicidal depression, but rather a shedding of delusions of immortality. In short: Samuel is a daredevil, a risk-taker, but only with his own life.
-Despite being fluent in Polish and German he has a novice level understanding of the culture and customs
-And, he hasn’t experienced this yet but, losing a man under his command would leave an indelible, and, probably, incurable wound.

Sure. A post of that caliber is bound to do something! Let me mull over the situation a little and I'll PM you when I get something on TP. See you then!
I'm also going to be sending a message to Yorg when I get the chance. Him not being here would really put a damper on the mood. I'll see about pinging the newest member as well.

I should probably mention, the characters I create may not at first make sense with the divisional structure, but they can click. The Scouts character, before you ask, is a real Oh, and another thing. SOE and other foreign groups were involved. But there is one key point. An SOE agent, if known to the Soviets..ohohoh. Well, they'd be gone. If the Soviets knew an SOE agent was in the Armia Krajowa, they'd think that they were supplied by the British, and because AK was going to become an illegal and terrorist organization after hostilities...well, they would be in a demanding position to have that person removed. They were responsible, mind you, for some incredible stuff. The Blyskawica is one of these beautiful and bastardized things that we kinda stole in the ideas department :D So keep that in mind, I'd personally still want a character like that in the RP to exist if someone else did it, but it's worth keeping that in mind.
This will actually lend a great deal to how my character interacts with the overall movement. Thanks for bringing this up!
He's probably have to secure a really well hidden hole in wall, a place to hide and sleep when things get too hot.

This could work quite well as long as it's kept realistic, that is to say, he's not some kind of James Bond superspy. A foreign Intel/Counter-Intel resistance member sounds very interesting. Perhaps work on the character sheet and take it from there.
He'll be more like a British Naked Snake, actually
Totally realistic though, nothing crazy.
