  1. Name: Johann Alleman-Comeau, or simply "Comeau"
    Age: 32 years old
    Gender: Male
    Race: Genetically-Enhanced Human (may be considered a Cyborg)
    Physical Description: "Comeau" is a youthful young man who stands about 5'9" and with a torso 1' wide. His arm is well-toned with pink-white skin, and his legs are athletically built. The German-French captain dons a white tuxedo shirt (sleeves rolled up); black dress pants; a pair of black suspenders; and a red handkerchief (wrapped carefully around his neck). Johann sports a fine head of short and layered dark-brown hair, with bursts of dirty brown highlights within. The right-arm of this strapping young-lad has been replaced with a bionic prosthetic, which resembles a thick gauntlet of velvet-tinted steel. Alleman's deep blue eyes and brave grin demand admiration, and his fine prowess with his weapons proves it.
    Weapon(s): Johann is a ruthless marksman, and leads all of his close-quarter assaults with his trusty Pikemann RP-15 plasma machine-pistol (has selective fire capabilites, and fires canister-based plasma pulses); if he can't rely on his handicraft with a gun, he relies on his custom high-frequency boarding sabre, which he so charmingly calls "Durendal". However, his swordsmanship is not on par with his shooting skill; the last time he tried, his entire right arm was dismembered.

     

    Comeau's Pikemann RP-15 is held in a quickdraw holster (strapped onto the left of his neck), whereas "Durendal" rests in a scabbard slung over his shoulder, which rests at his left hip.
    Role: Captain (Company Title: "Fighter-Captain Junior Grade, 9th Company")
    Ship: S.R.C. Avus Dictatorem
     
    Abilities:

    • (Mechanical): Cybernetic Arm-Prosthetic: Johann's incredible replacement right-arm (from the shoulder down) can assist him into lifting just short of 1 ton; can functionally act as a piston (using a bit of charge from an internal battery, he can put a dent in a 1 ton block of steel alloy); and perfectly matches the movement desired. Its wiring is run up through the spinal column directly into the captain's brain, allowing for perfectly coordinated movement of any part of the arm.
    • (Spliced): Basic Red Plume PMC Genetic Enhancement (B.R.P.G.E)The Red Plume PMC specifically infuses the DNA and mutagens of their mutant leader, "Adolf Beak", into their soldiers as to lend them an advantage over ordinary foes. These enhancements include increased rotation of joints; hollow and strengthened bones to allow for smoother falling from air; talon-like fingernails, able to punch holes in iron; and enhanced eyesight in all times of day and in all light conditions.
    • (Normal): Smooth Operator: Comeau is not only an interrogations-expert and a trained diplomat, but he has a gift of being able to play with telecommunications devices to the point of creating distortion while on the line without the listener noticing.
    • (Normal): Fuhrer Beak's Imperial Xeno-Encyclopedia: Johann has had enough experience both reading about aliens and fighting them that his knowledge of their anatomy, combat maneuvers, and racial abilities allows him to fight them as easily as another human.
    • (Normal): Board and Sword: A natural gift for infiltration lies within Johann; whilst boarded onto an enemy ship, security sensors have a heightened risk of delayed response time and missing an obvious intruder.

    Strengths: Johann is a charismatic, calculating, and challenging opponent. His genetic enhancements not only allow him to serve dutifully in the Red Plume PMC, but encourages his acrobatic and athletic skills to no end. Comeau is a crackshot with a plasma pistol; a talented infiltrator of enemy ships; a ruthless negotiator; and devout to his company.
    Weaknesses: Johann's prosthetic is susceptible to laser fire; a sufficient electric charge, or the wiring to his spine being tampered with by blows to his back or the arm, can put out his access to his right arm entirely. His bones, while helping him be aerodynamic in falling, are hollow, and must be protected well to avoid even the smallest of fractures. In addition to the previously stated issues created by the genetic enhancement, Comeau may be prone to several medical difficulties due to the highly-mutated DNA of "Adolf Beak"; this may lead to the point of organ failure, loss of eyesight or hearing, and even body parts rotting away (should the DNA be too highly incompatible).
     
    Backstory:

    Johann works for the Red Plume Private Military Company, an intergalactic mercenary corporation who's last contract was fighting in the Drac-Sectonian War ~16 years ago. All 45 separate warships under its service are led by a human known as "Adolf Beak", a terribly mutated dictator (and son of a former political leader from the Core) who plans on building a galactic empire of his own. [MORE TO BE REVEALED AS THE STORY CONTINUES]

     

    Personality:

    The personality of Johann is that of neither a justifiable villain, or a lawless hero; his role as a mercenary serves him well in his philosophy that "if it's going to pay you to not do it, don't do it", as the French-Germanic outlaw rationalizes even the most horrific of crimes with mumbled questions about payment to "stop". Otherwise, the impressive shipman leads the day with a cocky, yet calculated, state of mind.

     

    Barbara Eberstark

    Spoiler

    Name: Barbara Eberstark
    Age: 28
    Gender: Female
    Race: Human
    Physical Description: Barbara stands 6'5" tall, and weighs 190lbs. (most of it, however, is in muscle weight); packed along her body from the feet up are muscles trained to near perfection from all points of her figure, leaving to the imagination only a few inches where the muscle-woman couldn't flex. A greasy head of red-orange hair streaks down her spine like blood, stopping mere inches past the shoulder blades with spare follicles inching past. The Irish-German woman meets her foes with a pair of deep-green eyes, focused only on striking down targets. Despite her menacing appearance and role as a Gunner, the young woman is rather attractive, sporting wide hips; a slim waist; and a well-curved body.

    Barbara's clothing consists of a black, long-sleeved sweater with a combat-jacket overtop; a pair of grey cargo-pants, padded with armor; steel-toed black combat boots; and a pair of goggles (see Abilities).
    Weapon(s): Being the main fighting force for the crew of the S.R.C. Avus Dictatorem, Barbara is equipped with heavy-duty equipment meant to pierce the thickest armor, and outgun the toughest alien. Slung upon her back is a High-Powered G-71 Resolute laser-carbine (arguably similar to an M4 carbine assault rifle in basic appearance), a self-owned beam-rifle that has been a major asset to fire-fights when boarding ships. A waist-attached quickdraw holster houses a Pikemann SP-9 plasma pistol, the standard issue sidearm of the Red Plume's Infantry Department (electron beams are strong enough to pierce non-reinforced fabric armors only). If necessary, Barbara is equipped with a high-frequency edged combat knife, which she can use efficiently in Space CQC maneuvers.
     

    Role: Gunner/Infantry (Company Title: "Lieutenant Junior Grade", second-in-command to Johann should his direction be unavaliable)
    Ship: S.R.C. Avus Dictatorem
     
    Abilities:

    • (Normal) Space CQC Training: As a intergalactic soldier deployed in combat both ship to ship combat and ground operations, Barbara is among the ranks of the entire Infantry Division as a soldier trained in Standardized Galactic Military Close-Quarters Martial Arts (referred to by many as "Space-CQC"). She is a highly trained user of the art, and can use it to quickly dispatch opponents when both armed and unarmed.
    • (Mechanical) AB-50 UV-Reduction Goggles: Custom optical goggles blackmailed out of Red Plume's R&D Division; they look similar to welder's goggles, yet wrap around the face to cover the temples (allowing for a panoramic view). Panels which react to UV levels at high speeds line the frame of the goggles, and can trigger the release of contained chemicals to darken an internal lens to meet safe optical levels; this helps when dealing with the blinding flashes of stun grenades, and intense starlight.
    • (Spliced/Normal) Red Plume PMC Infantry Department Conditioning: To serve as an intergalactic soldier is one thing; to serve as an intergalactic soldier who is expected to operate as a peak-human, living weapon for a crew is another thing. Starting at the rank of a junior officer, all members of the Infantry Department are isolated for 4 months (from any form of communication or interaction with anyone outside of training instructors, higher ups, and others involved in the process) and put through a regimented schedule. This schedule includes intensive combat training (time extending to a full day if required); full-body exercise in manipulated gravity fields; direct transfusion of nutrients required per day into the bloodstream; emotional conditioning (to reduce the negative effects of fear and stress on the body); and genetic enhancement (using semi-iisolated strains of Adolf Beak's genetic information to reinforce senses, mental capacity, etc.). Due to this training, Barbara is less hindered by emotional responses in combat (and has much more control over her "fight or flight" instincts); possesses immense strength (able to punch a 9 inch hole in a 4ft cube of military-grade ceramic) and physical dexterity; has above-average senses of hearing; has eyesight that is more adaptable to sudden changes in light levels and bodily movement; is less affected by fatigue, tiredness and sleep deprivation; can adapt more quickly to differences in gravity; and possesses an extremely well-built immune system.

     

    Strengths: Barbara has been engineered (both prior to enlisting in the Red Plume PMC, and post-conditioning) to be fit, reliable, and strong. With less pressure from fear and stress on her actions, the one-woman squadron can handle fighting groups at a time without dependency on teammates or equipment. On an emotional level, Barbara is surprisingly bold for a rather new officer (possibly due to her Captain), taking full responsibility for the protection of the crew and making sure that they're covered in crew-to-crew combat.
     

    Weaknesses: While her conditioning makes her a force of nature physically, Barbara deals with a nightmare situation time after time: killing or hurting someone who depends on her while in combat. Due to her decreased hesitation and lack of experience, the possibility poses a serious risk for such a young soldier; with this subconscious fear bearing high weight on her job of fighting amongst the crew, Barbara can sometimes do the wrong thing in order to protect her crew.

    Like Comeau's own enhancements, Barbara's come with issues; yet due to the specialized nature of her enhancements (and her vastly different genetic code in comparison to Adolf Beak's own), a higher level of risk exists. Having completely foreign strips of genetic code (rather than the Basic Genetic Enhancement, where all of Adolf Beak's DNA is overlapped with the original's and edited to have undesirable traits filtered) within her DNA leaves a high chance of necrosis; this is due to the enhancement creating DNA damage in some strands as to replace them with the inserted genetic information. As DNA damage leads to difficulties in gene transcription, proteins required by cells may be blocked from synthesis; thus, the cells die. In this case, associated genes will be at the largest risk; which could lead to blindness, failure of the immune system, and irreparable cell damage.


  2. See, that idea is actually really bloody good. And you're smart enough to write down your plots rather than just making it up as you go along.

     

    Thank you so very much! I've been trying to figure out the way I could make the plot a structural tale of how patriotism can lead to the destruction of the nation you support! I'll probably have to make another thread just to update THAT novel!

     

    In the meantime, POST AWAY, PEOPLE! Don't be shy. I can smell your fear. And your blood.


  3. My sides.

     

    no, but seriously:

    fuck you and your stupid mothers who think a goddamned diet can affect mental health. you're a bunch of idiotic bitches who don't know about the science of neurological disorders, and I can never respect you if you try to avert the need for attention to your child's disability to what he's shoveling in his mouth.

     

    I've been diagnosed at 6 years old; treated with enormous disrespect from teachers in Grade 6, 7 and 8 for my Asperger's and was not given any educational assistance (I actually was treated rather disrespectfully, and I'm still recovering emotionally from the relatively abusive time); and I've been taking medication to support my difficulties. My mother is a hardworking woman, and she knows more shit about the condition than any of you white knight "I'm a better person than you" sons of bitches have in your pinkie finger.

     

    In short: Do not tell me I need to have less milk in my diet, because your shitty organization to go against nature is not welcome in a diagnostician's office.


  4. I may or may not have expressed this before, but I love writing. I mean, I'm no gatdammed William Quakejavelin, but I've done some work; mostly school stuff. However, in my spare time, I create very short snippets of story concepts that either 1) take waaaay too much from the shit I watch/read/get into, 2) don't really have a fully established plot/characters/setting/anything, and/or 3) are just stereotypical as shit.

     

    So today, I thought to myself: "Hey Comeau! Yes! You! Dumbass! Why not post these shit-tier ideas onto the intranets so that you can get help or have your work done better!" . And after a very brief reprimanding and beating that would have me thrown in jail for conscious abuse, I managed to pull this thread out of my ass! Hurrah.

     

    And y'know what? Just for you, Patchouli, you can be the star TOO. That's right folks! You too can post your miserable heaps of thinly-veiled fanfic conceptualization work on this here thread too! Nobody gets to go home empty handed!

    EVERYBODY GETS TO READ A BAD STORY PROMPT!

     

    And now, I proudly present the

    Unfinished Works of Comeau:

     

    Untitled Modern Fantasy Story (Working Title is "Magic! The Death of Great America")

    Spoiler

    Plot:

     

    Nearing the end of the 21st Century, frequent strings of anomalous phenomena that cannot be accurately summarized by any known scientific principle has lead to the re-immersion of magic and the rebirth of spiritualism into the public's eye, and with serious implications: possibilities for endless fuel show themselves to oil companies; the incredible knowledge regarding metaphysical studies that could be reverse-engineered by studying this rediscovered art; but more importantly, the marketability of commonplace magic to benefit the common buyer.

     

    Adam Abel Persson was an upstart business man going into the dead-end career of selling what is best described as "shapeless magic" to the public; however, issues arose due to the inability to use commonplace storage materials (plastics, ceramics, silicon, etc.) to package the raw para-metamaterial. Persson found a solution in the usage of living or once living things; however, taking a dark turn for the worse, he resolved that the largest possible container for a supply of his product was the human body.

     

    Persson (through a highly convoluted scheme involving bribery, assassinations, becoming a founding force behind magical research, being elected the President of the United States for a brief time, and subsequently creating mass changes to the law through money and power) rises to own a giant castle, which churns out storage crate after storage crate of human carcass by the hour from a large farm of people. In addition to being incredibly gifted with magical prowess, he has hired a squadron assembled of trained killers from across the world to support him and protect his legacy.

     

    However, this doesn't bode well with a massive revolutionary front based around the anti-commercialism of magic. Led by a young man going only by the name "George Washington", the movement's top commando group goes head to head with the Emperor of All Things Magaeconomical.

     

    Setting:

     

    2095 (tech is relatively same as 2014; more streamlined vehicles and more compact devices are the predominate change); then 2099 (arguably more dystopian; larger amounts of waste than before, and most tech is integrated with magic).

     

    Characters:

     

    "George Washington"

    - Leader of the resistance, and main protagonist

    - Young man, 18-21 years old

    - Prideful; a scholar of old-school American history, literature and culture; very much a peoples person. Speaks in very dramatic, antiquated English.

    - White, well-groomed hair and blue eyes. Rather athletic physique for his age. Wears a rather well-kept indigo frock coat above a white dress shirt, and adorns a pair of grey dress pants and black dress shoes.

    - Born of the "First and Last Person to Go Against Magic" in America, "George" was raised by a former Navy SEAL and his loving wife. Both were ideal Americans; young, rich, charismatic, and willing to devote anything to their freedom. However, "George" was left an orphan after a violent scuffle between his parents and the police when the married couple was on their way to Lord Perssons factory to become a body donor. The young boy then grew up to identify magic with the betrayal of the people's freedom, and the death of the Constitution. Uniting former members of his nation under one goal, he took upon the name of America's Great Founder as a tribute to his hero.

     

    Lord Adam Able Persson

    - The entrepreneurial emperor, and main antagonist

    - 25 years old in the start; 29 by 2099

    - In the beginning, he is a hardworking, yet carefree young man; focused on the 9 to 5. By 2099, he becomes greedy, manipulative, and thinks himself a god; a business man who has reached true wealth. Speaks formally, upholds the importance of the audience, and never loses the attention of the person opposite.

    - Has a head of rich mahogany hair, and sharply wields his pair of gray eyes like daggers; in 2095, he dresses comfortably in a cheap, black suit jacket and white dress shirt, black pants, and black dress shoes (he also wears black browline glasses). In 2099, he now adorns a olive long coat, a black dress shirt w/ a white bowtie, and matching black dress pants and shoes.

    - Originally a simple, American man who had moved down south into the States to build a life for himself. However, the curse of the market drew its shadow upon him, and drove him to seek an enterprise for himself. In 2095, while working in the relatively dead-end industry of producing common-goods grade magic products akin to cheap toys, Adam discovered the key point in keeping magical energy for a sustained period of time is by keeping it around biomass; using this information, he came to the realization that the perfect container for his company's product, Prestigiagel©, was by storing the "magic Play-Doh" inside a human body.

     

    Then, by manipulation of several Supreme Court Judges via bribery; a string of blackmail incidents regarding the then-Vice President and his relations with the President's wife; and sufficient murder of said President, Persson paved his road into legalizing the cultivation of humans in America for business purposes. By 2099, Adam had become the President of the United States, built his central fortress-factory in the middle of the Red River of the South, paid off America's debt, and eliminated poverty in the Southern half of the United States. To protect himself, the Savior of America hired a team of four professional killers to guard key areas of his central factory for him; these four consist of Hans the Killer (a German-Chinese former Buddhist monk, trained in several forms of Shaolin Kung-Fu and the inventor of a counter-style to Shaolin Kung-Fu itself), Scarlet Harlot (a professional Russian hitwoman and disguise artist who specialized in the use of a pill containing a fast-acting strain of tuberculosis to kill her targets; the pill would be administered via kiss), Dowser (a former warrior from a Native American tribe near the then-polluted Red River; exploited by Persson into joining the guard squad), and The Word of the Wind (a Japanese-Russian assassin who emulates a traditional ninja, with the advantage of using wind magic to silence his movement and give him extra mobility).


  5. Hey guys, may I just ask if there are any major changes to the following since I last played (Around December 2010, before hack'd):

     

    - Demoknights, Charge Turning and the usefulness of the Claidheamh Mòr in combat

     

    - Power level of Engis w/ Wrangler and Jags

     

    - The potential for me to dress up Bird Hitler more Nazi-like (cosmetics matter too!)

     

    - And "Whatever happened to set bonuses? Couldn't they've just removed the hat part altogether?"


  6. Comeau's dead; happy?

     

    I'm going to be asking for a little help in balancing him; it's not far in my opinion for Comeau to have to face off against people like Doop or Corv with their fancy bullshit magic and tech, or Rynjin's one-shot adamantium bullshit; but it's not fair if I get cancer giving armor-wrecking bullets. If any of you could contribute just a little bit of thought as to how I could solve this problem, please let me know.

     

    That's all I'm asking.
