Concordian Dawn
A special interests Reflex Team assembled by Firewalk Security Consultants. Unfortunately the team lasted zero missions and was disbanded after being on hire for two weeks
Members
Yu-Nique - produced by Goldenrod Autonics, this barrel-bodied auton is equipped with a Rokk-It Launcher (CC-1090 Sukk-It with a reverser switch), a pneumatic powered improvised weapon that fires trash, which the machine gathers as part of its Pikk-It Up Program. Has a fluid suction/hydrocannon secondary weapon.
Pros - relatively high armor rating, squirt gun ammo compatable
Cons - vulnerable to anti-robot warfare tactics. Slow.
Badazz - a somantic parapsychic, Badazz is capable of impressive feats of physical agility, with her signature move being double and triple jumps, Mario style. Downside is as a martial parapsychic, Badazz can only utilize her powers through the use of throwing knives and daggers, which have limited range, armor penetration, or damage potential. She also equips a Cuirasser pattern encounter system with a cooling vest stuffed inside it.
Pros - solid tactical leader with good understanding of close quarters combat
Cons - highly abrasive personality, lack of long range damage potential, excessively tough girlboss grrr persona
DaFuzz - an artificial being created with an engram liberated from a rehabilitated radical male extremist and a body from a female sex worker turned serial killer, wrapped in a flame-retardant rescue suit, and equipped with a flamethrower, and pyro-grenade launcher. Some people just want to watch the world burn. Controlled by the team leader and team handlers, also equipped with an internal loyalty device
Pros - non-flammable, no conscience, no morals, no qualms
Cons - abhuman and highly susceptible to transdimensional infestation
Maha - A heavyset androgynous person, Maha is a non-binary Polynesian combat medic equipped with a basic Electric Combat Rifle, a medic drone mounted in a backpack unit, and a polymemetic anti-riot shield.
Pros - Good defense, and proficient combat medic skills
Cons - diabetic, low mobility, reliance on stimulants to counter asthma
Mallory - The oldest member of the team, this feisty nonagenarian woman is known for her sass, electric SMG, and being a dangerously competent parapsychic matter manipulator. This skill manifests as an ability to create walls from the matter around her though is a draining ability to use. She compensates by using a Ranger suit, parapsychic 'flare' grenades, and regular anti-aging and rejuvenation treatments.
Pros - tons of experience, solid defender
Cons - 90+ year old woman
Remarti - A female power armor soldier from the Caribbean League. Has facial piercings and a suit of power armor.
Pros - has a suit of power armor
Cons - instead of regular weapons, has a rotary version of the Rokk-It Launcher. Prepare to be pelted with trash.
Yobabe - Proud fierce Latina woman with one facial expression, smug annoyance. She is equipped with dual pistols and wears an Argentine caftan over an encounter suit. This is fairly important because this is her main and sometimes only protection.
Pros - has pistols and can shoot at long range
Cons - just the most annoying person you've ever met
Ersatz - One of the more horrifying things about Concordian Dawn is that it employs abhuman aberrants, albeit under multiple vectors of control. Ersatz was once a human woman who became infested and is technically a Youma, or literally a parapsychic monster that has a human form. It is controlled by an implanted loyalty device (the Agonizer), a heavily controlled drug dosage plan, and after the initial capture, the creature was nerve-stapled.
Pros - short distance teleportation/blinking, can cause parapsychic ghosts and hallucinations
Cons - is literally a monster in a feminine shape and if control is lost, Ersatz will turn berzerker and try to kill everything and everyone around it.
Jafar Ali - Hailing from Intramere, Jafar Ali is a gunslinger medic who believes in mobility, firepower, and looking as cool as possible while doing it. His best tools for carrying out jobs isn't the SmartGun and full cybernetic rig he is equipped with, its the Drone Control System and the drones it can launch. He typically carries a mix of Steelwing Sparrows (fragmentation grenades with wings) Uppers (stim-paks with wings) and Sneakers (spy drones).
Pros - Is a cool guy, has a cool hat, has drones.
Cons - Maybe too cool, kinda sus around married women, maybe married men too.
BLYP - BLYP is an Platinum Series auton, with breathtaking cyberwarfare and hacking skills, and the ability to almost magically access intelligence as needed. This is really not a surprise as BLYP is a semi-sentient robot that was created by and for the use of Concordian Dawn's master control system, the AISC Concordia SIE. As such, it has constant remote access to a high tier AISC, and general access to all of the smartgear, cybernetics, and other equipment of Concordian Dawn, including the Loyalty Devices several members are implanted with.
Pros - a hyperintelligent intelligence officer with a cybernetic body, a penchant for guns and grenades
Cons - amoral appendage of a distant AISC that might or might not have omnicidal tendencies, and a warped ulterior motive.
Gilly - Another abhuman abomination, Gilly was a woman who was caught in a dimensional fatigue event that involved a sentient fungal infestation, turning her into a mobile spore colony. She retains a fractured set of memories from the event and not quite half of her body mass has been replaced with mycelium tissue. This allows her rapid regeneration, the ability to consume energy through decomposing organic material, and a near immunity to pain, critical hits, and solid damage reduction. She has bulging growths on one arm that allow her to shoot weaponized spore spears.
Pros - a mobile self-regenerating tank with the ability to kill foes with area of effect spores, spore spears, and can foul gasmasks and rebreathers with ease.
Cons - is a Youma, and clean-up teams have to be sent out as if left unchecked, her spore-infested kills with sprout fungal growths and start a new bridgehead for the myconal majesty that has infested her. Also, suffers extreme PTSD, psychotic breakdowns, and constant body horror as the fungus slowly replaces her flesh.
Larry - Larry is a Tarxan, a human parallel race from another dimension, who by mysteries of circumstance, was captured and tamed by Concordian Dawn's backers. Being a hyper-aggressive omnicidal race, the Tarxan was subjected to extensive cybernetic lobotomization, nerve-stapling, and implantation with multiple cybernetic augmentations to boost his strength, regeneration, and such to make him a relentless killer, at least until his handler hits the Calm Down button and he is forced into a programmed 'Average Joe' persona.
Pros - a remorseless relentless killer in close quarters with no qualms about anything. Good with knives, pistols, and his own reinforced and augmented strength and durability. Push-button switch to a 'Lets get wings and brewskis and watch the game wearing our fun floral print Hawaiian shirts' personality.
Cons - is literally a hyperviolent humanoid that if slipped free of control would kill and cannibalize as many humans as possible while collecting weapons to wipe out human civilization, and then take those weapons back to his own home and exterminate his own kind. Obviously non-human appearance, dude-bro persona is very annoying and hyper-topically liberal/progressive, with zero awareness of being an omnicidal killing machine.
Ferrero - To the eye, Ferrero is a woman with a nice figure wearing a thick encounter suit and an enhanced imaging helmet and fascia. The swagger in the walk, the perky breasts, and the four-tube guided missile launcher are just a bonus for the decently mobile heavy support trooper. Inside the suit, there is not a human being, but something else. Outside of the confines of the suit, Ferrero is an ambulatory black plasmid organism, and lacking access to the helmet and fascia, incapable of communicating. The thing is moderately intelligent, and effective in a variety of combat roles.
Pros - immune to criticals, no organs, cannot be harmed by concussion, high fire resistance, high radiation resistance, cute personality, good for team morale.
Cons - is a sentient ooze, consumes organic material by envelopment and dissolving it in internal acids, has no compunction about eating support staff thinking they're going to score with the artillery support hottie, Has left cysts in a few organics that will eventually awaken and hollow the host from the inside out to make more plasmids like Ferrero, vulnerable to cold.
Compensator - The benefactor of multiple muscle augmentation treatments and therapies, Compensator is a mountain of a man. The cragginess of his features is typically attributed to the variety of therapies and sometimes experimental nature of said treatments. He is actually a myrmidon augment engineered for close quarters combat.
Pros - literally designed and grown for the job, favorite weapon is a assault shotgun
Cons - is literally a monster that requires constant supplies of chemicals, hormones, and rejuvenation treatments as his body cannot repair itself as fast as it damages itself.
Just Jim - A shockingly normal guy, Jim has standard combat armor, a standard electric combat rifle, a bandoleer of grenades, and a set of A808 Snappers that let him alternate between comms, signal hacking, and listening to music without clogging the channel. Typically looks frightened, but quickly throws himself into the fray. Jim is a GI Joe series combat clone. When Concordian Dawn trains, they have a few dozen Just Jims cranked out to fight and shoot up, live fire style. Typically the standing Just Jim in the team is the longest-lasting clone, and when he is killed, or has some sort of catastrophic organ failure or psychotic break, the next most senior Just Jim takes his place. They all know.
Pros - a professional soldier, a real hero for hire
Cons - he's a clone, he knows he's a clone, clones are also vulnerable to becoming infested, falling to chaos, and a variety of medical issues related to be tank born, vat grown, and most being only a few weeks to a few months old.
Hollah - If you need a sniper, Hollah is the person to call, as she has a potent heavy rifle capable of firing multiple types of special munitions.
Pros - is a very good sniper with a good rifle
Cons - is only a sniper, and working alone leaves her vulnerable. Good thing she is easily replaced with another tankie the same way Concordian Dawn replaces Just Jim.
