Roll to Proxy War Turn 3: We have Jam but where's the toast?
« on: August 11, 2011, 07:01:32 pm »

Well as the title suggests this is my reboot of Roll to Snaaaaaaaaake. But I'll be doing it a bit differently this time. And maybe I'll update it regularly. Who knows?

Should Charsima use the Higher value since it's listed twice? Same with Intelligence? Or a mean of the two?

Glad to help lol


Final sheet
True Name: Arnold Sherman
Code Name: Flatfoot
Operative or Support?: Operative

Spoiler: Support Skills (click to show/hide)

Bio: Arnold Sherman, codename "Flatfoot" is a relatively new and unexperienced mercenary. He's got a few years of combat under his belt, mostlt in the war torn Africa region. He eventually decided to join his own PMC. It remains to be seen if Arnolds first real mission will be his last.

Physically, for a medium height caucasian male, he's remarkable only for the fact that he likes to work in panama hats, hawaiian shirts and flip flops. Antarctica would be ironic for him...in the field, he's pretty sharply dressed though. Has a weird addiction to Mr. Pibb. Deadly in hand to hand, close up fighting.

Time to drag this dude out again. :3 I will also suggest his PMC, Strategic Operations Consulting, as our name.

True Name: Brian Wall
Code Name: Sledgehammer
Operative or Support?: Operative
Skills: Long Gun Mastery, Heavy Weapons Mastery, Engineer

FIELD STATS
Strength: 6
Endurance: 5
Agility: 5
Intelligence: 4
Charisma: 1

SUPPORT STATS
Information Gathering: 5
Reputation: 5
Experience: 5
Intelligence: 5
Charisma: 1

Appearance: About 6'7, 300 pounds. Wears extremely heavy flameproof armor, armored helmet with attached gasmask, and a tactical vest to hold his fuel tanks and miscellaneous gear. His armor is gray with a green stripe down the outside of both arms and legs, and a similar stripe running vertically across the front of the helmet. When seen without the helmet, he has burn scars on his left cheek, homely features, closely-cropped black hair, and brown eyes. On the forehead of his helmet, and left shoulder plate of his armor, is a stencil in gold with the initials of the PMC he is part of.
Biography: A mercenary, 35 years old with 12 years of experience in the American military (Army, specifically) and 5 years as a private contractor. He works for a small PMC and prefers missions that require little subtlety. Despite his size and heavy gear, he can move quite swiftly (possibly due to his former status as a football player in high school)... it's pretty scary to have a huge guy with a flamethrower charging your position. Although a quiet man, he works well with others and looks out for his teammates. He has a wife and two daughters at home and keeps a family picture with him at all times; it helps keep him grounded even in tense situations. He prefers to use shock-and-awe style weapons, suppressing through intimidation.

I haven't RTD'd or played any forum RPG in ages, is this a particularly difficult one or should I just give it a shot?

Aye, time to take out my good old Kurt Vonnegut ripoff homage... in name and early backstory only though.

True Name: Rudy Waltz
Code Name: Deadeye Dick
Operative or Support?: Support
Skills: Rifle, engineer, archive diver

Field Stats:

Strength: 3
Endurance: 5
Agility: 4
Intelligence: 5
Charisma: 4

Support Stats:

Information Gathering: 6
Reputation: 3
Experience: 2
Intelligence: 5
Charisma: 5

Company: Steel Coast Security (SCS)
Region: Middle America

Started practising with rifles at a very young age with his father. Accidentally killed a pregnant woman at the age of ten with one of his father's rifles, resulting in his father being imprisoned and earning Waltz the nickname he would later use as his code name. After the incident, Waltz became cynical and emotionally detatched, but despite this he retained the ability to impress people with his reasoning and wits.

After spending his early 20's working as a junior engineer at a shipyard, he was contracted to build and maintain patrol boats for Steel Coast Security, essentially a private coastguard organization. During the first ten years of his employment there, Steel Coast prospered and became increasingly prominent in Middle America, where the cartel situation was becoming unbearable. Waltz's supervisor eventually realized that his technical and analytical skills could be used for actual operations instead of just maintaining the ships of what had become one of the largest private navies in the world, so Waltz was arranged a position in one of the command ships. Why he chose the code name "Deadeye Dick", only Waltz himself knows, although many people assume it to have something to do with the fact that no detail goes past Waltz unnoticed. So far, the upstart officer has been popular, but he has yet to prove himself in trickier situations.

Another thing known only to Waltz himself is his uncanny knack for sniper rifles. Waltz dislikes having to kill people himself, and hasn't trained with live guns much since his childhood accident, and yet he uses a rifle like a professional.


Poke me hard if I forgot something. Oh yeah, I'm at GMT +2 and I work 8 hours (or more) a day... if that's too slow for you others I'll be happy to skip this one.
