Who's up for a good fight? See me if you like Jurassic Park, Mortal Kombat, and Cthulhu Mythos in one.

Bio

I prefer group RPs and cooperation in between players. Usual characters are superhumans, half-human hybrids, cynics, and Nietzscheans. Usual settings are civil wars, blood feuds, and/or outside-context problems.

For Branch, now that Din is worm food, you may create a new CS if you want a second chance. I'm not stopping you. Be my guest.
Michael eliminated one of the offending Saurians near Luc and Angus, forcing the lone Saurian to run for better cover. Though Luc had a free shot, the Saurian didn't care and tried to haul tail to better cover. It was hit, but not killed in one shot. That injured Saurian would be perfect for capture as it then hunkered down. Din already bled out due to his reckless action, which Center rolled his eyes at. William's assault worked very well against the Saurian sniper as the sniper missed his shot. The lieutenant was too fast for the shots plus he flanked the sniper! As soon as he pulled the trigger, the sniper was downed thanks to a critical hit! Suddenly a familiar and maniacal voice would break out with laughter. "See you soon! The dying man's wish will soon be granted."

Luc and Angus would hear the voice at it was radioed. It was none other than ParaCom's arch-nemesis, the Head of Death! The Head of Death hinted at his arrival as soon as Din's dying "wish" was uttered. Who knows what experiments he would do to Din's corpse. The brain was still intact, but the same may not be said for the rest of the body. William Burkley may develop apprehension as a result.
As a reminder, I have updated.
Though Din attempted to stun using his flashbang and run and gun like an assault, there was another trick up the Saurian troopers' sleeve! Their sense of smell was similar to that of a bear's. Plus, due to their physiology, they showed resistance to the effect's of Din's ploy. It only worked half-way rather than all the way. Din's wild shot actually missed the targets! One Saurian, seeing how deep in cover the group was, decided to prime and throw a grenade right at Din's position. The paranormal grenade was practically a mini-nuke as it compromised both Din's cover and his armor! Other operatives witnessed the powerful action of the paranormal grenade. As a result of the blast, Din was also bleeding from shrapnel. Perhaps one of them can be captured to know more about the weaponry.

Michael used his artillery sniper rifle to provide support to his allies. Aiming for the head, he pulled the trigger, nailing one of the Saurian troops harassing the operatives. William now witnessed a Saurian sniper in overwatch position, aiming for the heads of anyone getting near the dragon. With the Saurian fighters, the mission got a lot tougher.
Name: Odysseus Earl Gray.

Gender: Male

Age: 35

Occupation: Ironically a Mechanical Engineer

Appearance: Fighting a Mectoid. Otherwise was a muscular, tall man and previously into heavy weapons.

Nationality: American

Trait: Augmented---MEC

Strengths: During the war, he learned more of technology within permission and reason. His strength is rather reasonable and is in tuned with technology. The expertise of explosives was also not lost. He was even very willing to collaborate with Dr. Shen, a man he admired during his tenure, thanks to his design creativeness.

Weaknesses: Due to his nature as an ex-MEC trooper, he is rather crude and clunky compared to the gene modded or psionic ex-troops. He often has a hard time with occasional clumsiness. Due to caloric reductions, he does not have much of an appetite and often has to force himself to eat and drink during social situations.

Personality: Reserved on his history, he prefers talking about the present and future. Sunk costs do not slow him down as he feels himself as too smart to fall for that fallacy. Having half the patience of a saint, he believed that good things came to those who wait. He never seriously asked to be a MEC, but eventually took it as punishment for his rash decisions. He plans on meeting with what remained of the XCOM project to make it up and redeem himself in what he calls a second chance.

History: Before the aliens invaded, he was head of a moderately wealthy family consisting of a nuclear family back in San Francisco, California. Odysseus was also a veteran of the Afghanistan war, which would be interrupted by the invading aliens. An ex-demolitions expert in the United States Army, he was "drafted" to the XCOM project. Rather than complain about being chosen, he chose to roll with it. He did well up until lieutenant when facing a Sectopod. Rather than risk his entire team, he thought that if he's going down, he'd take the robot with him in a suicide bombing attack. Though he was oddly close to the Sectopod, he fired his rocket with both of them in the radius. The Machine was destroyed but he got severely injured after the collateral damage. His reasons for his actions would be to sacrifice himself for the good of humanity. To him, the needs of billions outweighed the needs of one. By chance, he managed to survive the fireworks display with his armor in the factor. Though he was willing to wait at least a week to recover, he now found out about the MEC trooper initiative. Though he though would rub salt in his wounds by making him a MEC when he was weak and sickly rather than being strong and healthy. Though he vocally objected internally and considered it a tactical waste of resources, the complaints fell on deaf ears. Ultimately, he thought that the MEC Trooper augmentations would give him a second chance boost for sure. After the war, he thought the Council of Nations would be making a ruinous decision. Why disband XCOM? What if an alien power vacuum was created? It was typical for humans to do this: Win a war but lose the peace. One of his quotes in support of his comrades was, "At least don't give the brave, hard-working, and enthusiastic XCOM veterans a mug of dog piss and call it beer." Somewhat pacifistic, he objects to extreme ideas and wants his cohorts to win the peace rather than squander it.

Now it's one more person. Perhaps some advertising can help.
I'll update later on. Internet is screwy today.

Branch, please edit your post. That's auto-hitting or called hits what you're doing there. You can only initiate an attack in a post. It is up to the GM or co-GM to decide whether it hits or not, especially with dice rolls and mathematics algorithms.
