Master of the Chaotic Method Posts: 240 Group: Admins Member #1 Joined: Apr 1, 2008 Steam ID Katanoki	Invite: Public Character Sheet: Name, Gender, Appearance, Weapon of Choice, Backstory, Anything Else Setting: Forty years into the future, the world has reached a state of peace. The High Council protects the citizens of the world, creating a safety net against violence, oppression and general distaste. You must bring them down. Protest; peaceful petitioning; civil disobedience. Every attempt to reason has failed. Every attempt at a non-violent solution has failed. Meanwhile, those unaccepted by the "perfect society" grow thinner, weaker, and angrier. It is time for revolution. The plans have been set in motion; A major player in the High Council, Damian Lapris, will be alone in his home, unprotected for two hours. It is time to declare war. House Rules: Guns aren't outlawed, but they're extremely difficult to own or purchase legally, except in the case of law enforcement. Thus, close range weapons, homemade guns and other replacements are on the rise amongst dissidents. -------------------------------------------------- When we have a few people, I'll post the first post.[/list] Edited by Chaos, Mar 14 2009, 10:25 PM.

Master of the Chaotic Method Posts: 240 Group: Admins Member #1 Joined: Apr 1, 2008 Steam ID Katanoki	I forgot to put up my character sheet... Name: Bane Gender: Male Appearance: 6'1. Dark eyes, dark hair with purple shading. Light skin. Average build, but somewhat toned. Scars on the inside of his left hand, from learning to use the claws he wields. Strange, kind of tribal looking tattoos on his back, which look like dragons. Weaponry: Claws that fit over the fingers of his left hand, dentally enhanced teeth, and an aerogun. The aerogun fires concentrated bursts of air that can cut through skin and break bones. Backstory: Bane is a relatively unknown figure in The Syndicate, but is amongst their best in quiet, carefully executed assassinations. Other Stuff: Personality: Little is known about him, but though he is strongly principled, the world has heavily jaded him; the ready acceptance of the High Council by the worthless, sleeping masses causing his latent misanthropy to rise to the surface. However, as much as he believes in the downfall of government, he's also highly strict with himself, always holding true to the principles he believes in. ((He's a new character, so he'll still be getting fleshed out.)) Edited by Chaos, Mar 14 2009, 08:07 PM.

Master of the Chaotic Method Posts: 240 Group: Admins Member #1 Joined: Apr 1, 2008 Steam ID Katanoki	Damian Lapris sighed, rubbing his temples. It had been a long day; No less than twenty seven juveniles had walked for their first time into his court. The beginnings of a life of crime. Four were members of a dissident group which made what they called music. The fools; they only inspired malevolence and hatred. He read over the files which he'd brought home. Dissident numbers were falling rapidly; people were no longer hitting the streets. Perhaps they'd finally realized the benevolence of the High Council. A sudden breeze, and the papers in his hand tore into pieces in front of him. He jumped with a start. An aerogun? No; This was far too powerful. He spun, facing the direction of the attack. Bane stepped forward; the window behind him was open, the fire escape's ladder extended. In the man's right hand--an aerogun, yes. But different. "Damian Lapris. You've pushed forward your agendas and forced your ideals upon a world that was too weak from wars and famine to fight back any longer. But no more. Tonight, you will be sacrificed; the first blood to spark the fires of revolution." Bane slipped his fingers against each other; each on the left hand was encased in bladed claws. "That aerogun can't be legal," Damian stated. Bane smirked, shaking his head. "Of course not, Mr. Lapris." He raised the gun to fire, but yelling from within the house caught both their attentions. SWAT, already? He looked back at Damian, hoping the backup he'd brought could handle themselves.

Time Keeper Posts: 32 Group: Members Member #26 Joined: Mar 14, 2009 Steam ID watchman42	Cam stood outside the door to Lapris' study, where Bane was currently taking down one of the men making all their lives hell on earth. Or rather, he was supposed to, but after the first snap-woosh, there was no scream of pain or agony, or Bane running down the hallway telling her that they have to get out now. In the silence, the noises and scuffling of people running around and on the house were as stark as an elephant stampeding on the plains. Cam had her Twin Semi-Autos, illegal and a bit aged, at a low ready position, ready to take on the oncoming SWAT team sent to foul up their plans. When the first vague sight of a person stepped into view, Cam wasted no time in raising the barrels. "Down on the ground or you lose consciousness." Edited by Anachronist, Mar 14 2009, 11:58 PM.

Mastermind Posts: 23 Group: Members Member #27 Joined: Mar 14, 2009	Even from outside Yash heard the sharp snap of the aerogun, she quickly checked her time piece. "Damn Bane, he's running late SWAT will be here any second," she muttered to herself. Right as she said it several SWAT cars pulled up and heavily armored officers began pouring out. She checked her goggles to make sure her traps were armed and in place, noting that the SWAT came from only three of the four sides of the building, the left side of the house was ungaurded which would be their escape once Bane and Cam got out. As the gaurds began to surrond the house she took note of their number and location, 12 men on the right side of the house, 8 approaching the front door with 8 keeping behind them watching for trouble, another 12 men approached the back door preparing to enter, 10 more were climbing to the roof to repel inside on the captains call. Better silence the communucations first, Yash thought to herself looking for the captain and his radio. "Time to create some cover," she whispered, pulling the trigger to her smoke mines hidden throughout the yard Edited by Yashkaini, Mar 14 2009, 11:14 PM.

Master of the Chaotic Method Posts: 240 Group: Admins Member #1 Joined: Apr 1, 2008 Steam ID Katanoki	Bane could hear the footsteps on the roof. If his crewmates had failed, the SWAT could be there in moments. "If you give up, I can ensure a quick, painless death." Damian smiled, holding out his hand. "You might even be able to get away with a life sentence, if I'm feeling generous enough." Bane glared back at him. The pompous fool. "You really don't get it, do you?" he asked, raising the aerogun. He could feel the anger rising in his chest, and as he struggled to pull the trigger, his emotions raged, calling out no, chanting in his mind, demanding more. Demanding retribution. He lowered the gun, stepping forward. "That's a good kid," Damian stated, and Bane took his extended hand. The two stood there, eyes locked for moments, before Bane swung, clawed left hand reaching at Damian's lightly clothed underbelly. Damian stopped his hand, wrenching Bane towards him, but Bane kept his balance, bringing the claws down into Damian's forearm, eliciting a yell. Bane wrenched his right hand free, taking a swing, Damian ducking back. Damian then leaped forward, barreling into Bane, shoving the younger man down. Bane landed on his back with a thud, barely rolling out of the way as Damian swung. The older man gripped his hand, and Bane took the opening, lashing out with his claws and slicing into the man's abdomen. Damian screamed, crumpling to the floor as Bane stood, moving a few feet off. He drew his aero again, raising it at Damian. At this point, the SWAT landed on the fire escape; Bane cursed, ducking behind a cabinet as they fired at him, clipping his shoulder. He gripped the wound, running with his head ducked towards the hallway. He glanced back for moments; the confident smile was apparent on Damian's face. Another day.

Enemy shots could be heard from the study as well as SWAT members yelling commands. With Bane in front, Cam kept up the rear, both pistols ready to fire in case things got hairy. She had tranq bullets loaded as well as having a couple clips of heater bullets and good old-fashioned slugs clipped to her belt; hopefully Yash was ready to blow some smoke their way.

Mastermind Posts: 23 Group: Members Member #27 Joined: Mar 14, 2009	Those two better be making their way out, Yash thought as she rose from the smoke behind the captains entourage. She quietly reached into her bag of marbles and silently poured them onto the ground infront of her, as she approached the group from behind. "Don't let them get away!" the commander yelled into his handheld radio. "Block off the exits to the lower... ack... acckkk.." Yash tightened the fiber wire around the commander throat, choking out the last bit of life in him, His gaurds turned just in time to see the wire slit his throat as warm blood dripped down this neck. Yash quickly unwound the fiber wire and took off running as the gaurds fired several rounds into the smoke after her. "Get the captain a medic now!" one of the gaurds shouted as he flipped him face up for medical attention. "Shit.." he muttered noticing a pinless grenade delicatly stuffed into the dying commanders mouth. Edited by Yashkaini, Mar 15 2009, 12:17 AM.

Master of the Chaotic Method Posts: 240 Group: Admins Member #1 Joined: Apr 1, 2008 Steam ID Katanoki	Bane ran past Cameron, yelling, "Come on, exit, we'll get him later!" He ran down the ornate stairs, heading toward the kitchens. He'd seen a window there on the building schematics; with any luck, they'd have it less guarded. He motioned for Cameron to follow, lifting the window as quickly as he could. He climbed up, starting to crawl out. A sharp, searing pain in his chest and a loud sound accompanied the swift jerk backwards, he could only think Oh god I've been shot as he toppled, leg caught over the windowsill as he landed on his back on the kitchen floor. He turned over, looking down that's my blood, clutching his chest as he crawled back towards Cameron as the SWAT marched toward the windowsill. "Cameron, cover..." He watched blood slip from his mouth as he mangled the words, fumbling with his pockets.

Time Keeper Posts: 32 Group: Members Member #26 Joined: Mar 14, 2009 Steam ID watchman42	Damn. Worst-case scenario. They swiftly flew down the stairs, to the kitchen where a window stood as their means of escape. It was all simple, get out now and get it done later. Simple. As simple as pulling a trigger. Cam saw the bullet shot, saw the trajectory leading back to a SWAT about a few yards away from the house, but when she saw Bane, bloody and down on the ground, her mind emptied out. Focus, her mind whispered. Bane managed to spill out "Cameron, cover..." as he struggled with his pocket. SWAT officers started to come toward the windowsill, getting ready to take prisoners. They wouldn't get that chance. Cam immediately fired two shots at the man nearest the window, plugging him in the arm and knocking him out. Four others came around and Cam put each one out within two shots. The tranquilizer in the rounds would last for a couple house, more than enough for a speedy retreat, but not if they didn't get away first. More people were swarming in, and came switched out the clips, putting in the heater rounds. They stung like a bitch, and hopefully she'd get to sting a lot of these bastards.

Mastermind Posts: 23 Group: Members Member #27 Joined: Mar 14, 2009	Yash smirked as she turned around to face the captain and his squad, She watched as the men scattered trying to escape the grenade only to slip on the marbles littering the ground. She turned away, a loud explosion from behind her followed by enough moaning to indicate several injuries let her know the heat was off for a moment or two. "Wonder how they'll like Phase Two," she laughed to herself, running towards the house to look for her comrads. Noticing the yard was flooded with gaurds she figured a little distraction was in order, reaching for her pack of detonators and pressing the one labeled NAPALM she dove onto the front walk, one of the few "Safe Zones" in terms of bombs and traps She looked back to see paramedics pulling up the the explosion site, unloading stretchers and equipment to take care of the wounded, right on time she thought. A beeper went off on her watch letting her know three seconds until phase two so she tinted her goggles and watches as the magnesium sulfate core of her grenade went off on it's delay timer, setting the paramedics on fire with a hellish blast of white flames, only a few seconds later the yards napalm mines went off setting it ablaze as well. "Time for the next phase of the operation, where the hell is Bane?!?" she said, hiding beneath a window on the side of the building...

Master of the Chaotic Method Posts: 240 Group: Admins Member #1 Joined: Apr 1, 2008 Steam ID Katanoki	Bane heard the explosion; screaming and the smell of burning flesh pervaded his senses as he pulled the syringe from his pocket. He pushed it into his arm, injecting himself; his bleeding slowed as the Vitamin K went through his bloodstream. He tried to stand, but stumbled; he was still in agony. He gritted his teeth, pulling himself onto his feet, all his willpower focusing on the ability to keep from screaming. He looked at the SWAT, running back out, explosions drawing their attention elsewhere. He looked back at Cam, waving her forward. "Let's get Yash and get the hell out of here." He moved toward the window, this time taking more care to watch for the SWAT. He could see them departing for a different section of the house, and he tried to climb out the window again, nearly falling as he dropped down. Edited by Chaos, Mar 15 2009, 01:22 AM.

Time Keeper Posts: 32 Group: Members Member #26 Joined: Mar 14, 2009 Steam ID watchman42	The explosions shook the foundation of the house, the aftershock enough to shatter a couple of glasses on the table. Bane, injecting himself with Vitamin K, monitored the flaming SWAT and paramedics, then gestured for Cam to cone over. "Let's get Yash and get the Hell out of here." And with that, he proceeded to slump through the window frame and onto the other side, making a heavy thud on the ground. Cam vaulted through the window, landing next to a crumple Bane and a startled Yash. "You almost broke Yash in half, Bane." Cam muttered as they made there way out of the danger zone.

Mastermind Posts: 23 Group: Members Member #27 Joined: Mar 14, 2009	"Fuck Bane, you almost made me pee my pants!" Yash squealed after the fear from being pounced on faded. She brought up the yard map on her goggles taking point as she lead the team to a safe area to make their escape. "Guys, we're going to be making our exit in a firetruck," She giggled, noticing a fire truck arriving on the scene to deal with her mess. "Think one of you can distract the firefighters for me while I hotwire the truck?" she asked in a mockingly sweet tone as she pulled up a file on how to hotwire firetrucks

Master of the Chaotic Method Posts: 240 Group: Admins Member #1 Joined: Apr 1, 2008 Steam ID Katanoki	"Oh, because standing beneath a windowsill in a generally underguarded section of the house is a good idea," Bane quipped, leaning against the alley wall. He looked over at the firetruck, panting. "I don't think I'm going to be able to do much. Cam?" He pointed at the firetruck, smiling sweetly at her. "Be a doll..."

Time Keeper Posts: 32 Group: Members Member #26 Joined: Mar 14, 2009 Steam ID watchman42	"Fine, but call me doll again and you're not going to be doing much of anything for a while." Cam retorted. She made her way to the firetruck, doing her best to dodge the firefighters' line of sight. Fortunately, they were distracted by the enormous fire. Cam slid behind the drivers seat, taking out her own sunglasses as the glare from the fires were brighter this close. Dexterously, she cut and tied together the wires to give them full control of the firetruck. First order of business, turn off the foam outlets to stop the firefighters from doing their job. More confusion, more cover. Next, while the puzzled expressions were fresh on their faces, Cam drove the truck to Bane and Yash, popping open the door and saying "Get in if you want to live."

She climbed into the cab and pulled up the local news on her goggles, watching to see if their progress was being covered yet.
