Other equipment

Jake - a small laptop, maglight, 7 spare powerpacks and 12 grenades for the Mauser. (can cut down on this a bit) plus 32 rounds for the elephant gun. (3 oz rounds.) 6 pounds of them connectors and charging cable for the laptop (which does not need oxygen to function) some food and water (yet again how much is up to Chaos.) A Metal Card that is like a dog tag and has the Ace of spades on it. plus breathing apparatus

Darius - welding equipment, Maglight, about 75 spare shotgun rounds. Breathing apparatus, some food and water, a metal card like jakes but with the Ace of Diamonds on it.

Larry - 96 rounds for the elephant gun, Boonie hat, Maglight, Tooth necklace with another metal card attached, the Ace of Hearts. Breathing apparatus, some food and water, portable radio (what can I say, guy used to be a big game hunter, he loves his ammo.

[Listless Nomad]

Name: Pavel Kowalski
Age: 19
Occupation: Battle armor pilot
Military Unit: VII Hastati

Pavel was born on Tikonov, and grew up with a love and admiration of the Republic. As soon as he was able, he joined the military and was accepted into the 710th Infantry Brigade. Due to exemplary ability and conditioning, he was transferred to the VII Hastati. He is as green as he can be, having never experienced actual combat. He is however, highly motivated and trained, with an unshakable loyalty to the Republic.

Trained for light infantry operations and infiltrations, he is highly proficient in maneuvers with NightHawk Light battle armor. When the research station on Skyfall went dark, Corporal Kowalski was assigned to the detachment going to investigate as a breaking in mission. He is to act as a liason between the hired mercenaries and any other Republic forces, and make contact with any Republic personnel at the station, and send recurring reports back to VII Hastati command.

Personal Appearance: 6'2", close cropped blonde hair. He is of an athletic build, befitting of an infantryman. Although used to working with power armor, the majority of Pavel's training occurs outside of armor, and he has excellent conditioning. For this mission, he has been issued rusty red and black digital camouflage fatigues, with a matching combat helmet. His Night Hawk power armor has the same camouflage pattern.

Pavel is distrustful of the mercs, and dislikes their company. His blind faith and loyalty to the republic cause him to look down upon and frown on the gun for hire mentality of the mercenaries. However, due to his position as mission Liason and being the only Republic soldier on the mission, he attempts to get along with and be friendly enough with the mercs, especially the other battle armor pilots. Pavel is over eager, and will often rush into situations without thinking or planning. He's headstrong and loathe to take orders from the mercenaries. He is not in command on the mission, however and has to swallow his pride during the mission. Pavel also fancies himself something of a lady killer, and has been known to hit on anything that moves. He believes that "persistence is the key," and is unlikely to give up after a single rejection. Despite his constant pursuit of women, he's never actually "been" with one, and is quite unsure what to do if a woman ever accepts his advances, a prospect that is quite scary for him.

Equipment:
Nighthawk Battle Armor

Serrek 7875D Auto-Pistol (held in a thigh holster strapped to his right leg, with two clips of ammunition in a puch attached to the holster)

AX-22 Imperator Assault Rifle (3 Clips of ammo with him in the field, and a crate more of them on the dropship)

Imperator 2894A1 SMG (3 Clips of ammo with him in the field, and a crate more of them on the dropship)

Bolt Action Hunting Rifle (with telescopic sight) - Very old, family heirloom 30.06 rifle. It has a 5 round magazine, and Pavel carries a single 20rd box of ammunition for it. He very, very rarely takes it into the field, and usually keeps in carefully wrapped in cloth.

8 Fragmentation grenades, carries two with him when on operations.

Tactical light that clips to his rifles (battery life for 5 hours of continuous use)

Small first aid pouch (bandages, antiseptic, splint, tourniquet)

Small hand held motion detector, can be clipped to his rifle if necessary

Note - Only one rifle and the side arm are carried at a time. The rest are stored in a locker or duffel bag aboard the ship.

I loled

[ChaosGrinder]

ok, this is about to get interesting Ladykiller xD

[dal10]

at least Aegis's character specifies that a lot of people can't tell that she is a gal.

[ChaosGrinder]

i guess Triss will try her luck

[Aegis Fate]

Yeah, generally when a person is mostly in the guts of some machine gender is relatively hard to determine. Then again she might just thwack him with a wrench because he's too busy being stupid.

[Listless Nomad]

Oh I'm sure he's going to get beaten quite a bit. I thought that would be a funny character flaw to throw in haha. Glad you like it :-P

[ChaosGrinder]

Fits perfectly

[dal10]

All of my characters except for darius have significant flaws within the sterotypes I made for them. Jake overcalculates everything, Larry is completely reckless, Steve is just stupid.

[ChaosGrinder]

i kinda like steve He sounds like he could be some friendly fool

[dal10]

which is actually going to be the plan. Jake is a nerd, who can drive. Darius is an underwater welder, so muscular, not exactly brilliant, but not stupid either, he is also extremely reliable. Larry is a classic rich guy with a taste for adventure. but is also convinced of his importance to everything. Steve is stupid, but incredibly nice, and rather goofy.

[ChaosGrinder]

Naww, i want to gift steve a plushiebear :3

And i want to try my luck at Aegis´ mechanics girl

[dal10]

your character is a lesbian... this is going to be interesting to say the least, especially considering nomads character...

[ChaosGrinder]

She´s open ;D
The Ladykiller I like where this is going

[dal10]

what is the detection for BAP on stealth armor?

[Listless Nomad]

I think nighthawk armor is pretty much invisible, even to BAP.

"stealth armor renders the user invisible to all active probes except for an experimental bloodhound probe."

Therefore, beagle is useless against stealth armor.

Then I hope that I don't run you and the other stealth guy over by accident, also, we have 3 units with ECM so far...

[pinsndneedles]

Looking at the bios I feel like my character's an old-man in comparison lol

Edit: As for stealth, that's just for radar detection, we're still visible on a line-of-sight basis. Whoever's using the Purifier has mimetic armor which has the ability to go all Predator-stealth-mode on us.
