Dead Space: Suppression

[vampiremessiah51]

Antares Prime, a planet founded long ago as a mining colony and has since grown to become a civilized planet. One of the shining jewels of humanity's empire it was no wonder why it's presence was sorely missed by Earth within days of it going dark. For reasons unknown it has gone silent, and Earth Gov has decided to take matters into their own hands and to see what's gone wrong. A task force made of Earth Defense Forces marines is on route to assess the situation and lend aid if necessary...

What Earth Gov doesn't know is that yet another Marker has been found and a new infestation of the Necromorph Contatgion has begun. This time however instead of an isolated colony or station... it's on a fully populated planet. The horrors of Antares are about to begin...



You will play the role of either an E.D.F. Marine sent to lend aid to Antares Prime, Antares Security, or a survivor of the Necromorph attack. The only hope for Atares is to find and destroy the Marker thus eliminating the Necromorph threat.

Rules:
1. Be Polite.
2. I run this thread and may choose a second in command as the rp gets rolling.
3. Try to keep at least a paragraph for your posts. I can understand occasional need to post less though.
4. No killing characters without discussing it with them first.
5. No godmoding.
6. Keep the romance acceptable, I'm pretty sure a hot sweaty encounter will be hard to believe when danger could be lurking in any corner.
7. I want to see people using reasonable equipment for whatever role you play in. If you're E.D.F. you should probably be using actual weapons from the Dead Space universe that a military organization would use. If you're an engineer you would more likely be using standard engineering tools. Here is some starting equipment I recommend. Feel free to customize it a little just please avoid obviously overpowered weapons as your starting gear.

Standard Weapons:
E.D.F.-
Plasma Pistol
Pulse Rifle (for assault characters)
Seeker Rifle (for snipers)

Security-
Divet (http://deadspace.wikia.com/wiki/Divet, I intend for it to have it's Downfall performance)
Riot Rifle (http://deadspace.wikia.com/wiki/Unknown_Rifle)

Survivors:

711-MarkCL Rivet Gun

Username: vampiremessiah51

Name: Alan Douglas Wagner
Nickname: Al among friends, his unit refers to him as Ares
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Profession: Corporal, E.D.F. Marine

Equipment:
Military RIG
Plasma Pistol
SWS Motorized Pulse Rifle w/ Grenade Launcher
2 Grenades
Medpack

Appearance: Alan is of sturdy build, and due to his marine training, that imposing stature is packed with solid muscle. He possesses a stern steel gray gaze is a common feature on his sharp features, framed by his long black hair which he usually keeps tied back into a loose pony tail. He's notably pale having spent much time in stasis or his armor. He has a scar running almost the entire length of his face on his left cheek marring his otherwise fair features.

His armor is painted non-regulation black with red higlights giving him an almost demonic look on the battlefield. The armor is on the old side several pits and bullet marks can be found in the hard chest plate, reminders of battles he was too proud of and too stubborn to have repaired. At all times he can be seen with at least his sidearm if not full equipped and ready at a moment's notice.

Personality: Alan is fiercely loyal to his friends and of course his Unit. Often the first to dive into a dangerous situation in order to protect them. While he is a terrifying sight to behold when dispatching enemies he is never cruel to those who are innocent or uninvolved.

Alan is well known for his extremely bold plans and rash actions. He is a consummate warrior and spends much of his time training or preparing for combat. He tends to keep to himself talking only about serious matters or when amongst friends. If he talks to you, you've either done something very good or very stupid. His unit has long learned to trust his instincts during a firefight as more often than not they've turned out to be correct.

History: Alan is Earthborn, hailing from Allentown Pennsylvania conflict has been a part of his life since he was a young child. The streets he lived on were rife with crime gangs on nearly every street corner and constant riots over police action lead him to develop a strong instinct for danger. His father was an ex marine whom he trained with at a young age.

Alan managed to avoid altercations on the street for the most part until one day while walking with his father a gang held them up. His father managed to fight off four gang members while Alan ran for help. Despite several stab wounds and a gunshot wound his father managed to survive. Alan knew from that day on he wanted to learn to survive like his father and so when he became of age he joined the E.D.F. marines.

Alan proved to be a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield pulling his unit through whenever dire circumstances were at hand. He was promoted to corporal after surviving an ambush on his unit which resulted in the deaths of all but him and his friend Private Gernsback. The two fought their way through the enemy ambush and made it back to a rendezvous point.

Due to the destruction of their unit resulted in him being assigned to the E.D.F. Planetary Troops, assigned to provide assistance to embattled planets or to provide assistance when needed.
