I wonder in Xina still has any intention of picking this baby up, or was that just a teasing to get us all rilled up...

Good things come to those who wait?

Arright, so. Would anyone object if I took over the thread? Does anyone else want to volunteer? Is anyone still interested, for that matter?

Anyone who wants in, go ahead and gimme a roll call. I'll give it about a week, and then a post will go up if there's enough interest.

Edit: Technically, he's still got about half a day.

Sorry, fellas - forgot I had a family reunion over the weekend. Post'll go up on Monday.

I haven't heard back from the majority of the original cast; I'd prefer to limit new additions to the quartet for now, but I'd be open to making a few more additions based on how many of the old guard come out of the woodwork.

[Vodkavaiator]

Lovely.

I do have one question though, will the new RP continue where the old one left of in 3044?

Spear, wouldn't you rather play them game when it is complete, with everyone of your friends by your side or by yourself. Alone in a world not even complete yet?

[ChaosGrinder]

If he´d post us a deadline i´d be ready within 2-3 Hours. And i´d like some decent RP too

[DocBach]

It's just picking up where we left off, or is it a whole new shibang?

Well, due to recent events, a friendly nudge, and some inspiration, I am doing a complete and total rewrite of Chris's bio, only thing that is staying the same, is he has encountered Dragoons before, and respects them, but, *cracks knuckles* here we go.

Name: Chris Dezene

Callsign: Blackjack

Mech: Custom modded Shadow Hawk SHD-2K minus the LRM 5 for two MLs and a heatsink, to make it ammo independent, as I hate to run out of ammo.

Short bio: Chris is a bit of a wanderer, and a gambler. He has been on the frontier as long as he can remember, and has picked up a few tricks while he was out there. One, was a natural skill, at poker, blackjack, and other card games, he became skilled at bluffs, reading bluffs, and was also very lucky. It was this luck, that won him a pirated Shadow Hawk, as Chris was down a little bit in a game of poker, but on the last hand, he called out to the man across from him, a small time pirate of the 'Shpere, double or nothing, winner takes all. The pirate, confident that he would surely win, agreed, and put up his Shadow Hawk, an SHD-2K without the LRM 5 and in its place, 3 MLs, against Chris's salvage truck, all the equipment he had collected that day, and his services. Chris got 'lucky' and with a hand of an Ace of Spades, and a King of Spades, managed to pull a Royal Flush, against the pirates measly 2 pairs. The two being friends honored the agreement, and Chris even stayed a while so that the mech could be replaced, which it was with an even bigger Black Jack, a mech that they had taken in a raid out in the Periphery (planet name needed). So, his friend in good hands, Chris left with his brother, called Bubba, also his mechanic, to seek out some more work, when he came to wherever we are at now. Chris is decently good in his Shadow Hawk, and his skills with his slug thrower pistol, are not to be joked about, as his biggest motto is, "Having the great hand, is a great idea, but being able to defend your winnings, is a perfect idea," as he has experienced people try to cheat him.

Physical description: A little over 2 meters tall, and right in at 200 pounds lean. Brown hair, brown eyes, and an Ace of Spades tattoo on his left shoulder.

How was that?

[Vodkavaiator]

Interesting, he seems much more like a normal person now(which in my view is a good thing). Winning a mech whilst gambling is also a great Battletech tradition!

On a purely personal level I love to read a detailed history of the character as well however, such as where they were born, education, how they ended up where they currently are or so forth.

[ChaosGrinder]

Ok, so i´ll post my Bio here too ( Chance to get in reduced by 35,38% )

Name: Elisabeth Sanders

Callsign: Pepper

Age: She doesn´t tell (Presumably in her early 20ies )

Physical Appearance: Tall, muscular , still slim. Black, long hair, brown eyes, glasses. She has a round race, thin Lips and looks younger than she really is.

Short Bio: Elisabeth was allways out for a fight and she didn´t mind a reasonable amount of trouble no matter where she went it mostly ended with a fight. Her way eventually led her to the military, the only place where she really could be contained. She moved around from Lance to Lance, eventually she got to the Kathil Uhlans, where she worked her way up until she was granted an Atlas. But due to indifferences with her Commander she left and took her Atlas with her. From here on, her way was allways a shady one. She went to a Merc Corp wich she left soon again, she joined a pirate gang until they had a fight in wich she killed two of the crew, so she left to a small group of Ex-Elite soldiers who soon planned to steal a Sh*tload of Money. As they wanted to use her as distraction, she took the money, destroyed the Ship of the Raiders and went off to seek her fortune amongst the stars, wich maybe will lead her to a safer future.

Others describe her as violent, extremely emotional and sometimes hard to stand but helpfull when it comes to combat or a really hard party.

[Thom Frankfurt]

Interesting...

Indifferences with the commander of the Kathil Uhlans? Umm... Isn't that also the Marshal of the Armies of the whole Federated Commonwealth, Morgan Hasek-Davion? *Let's out a long low whitle.* I think there are WAY better people to p!ss off.
