Would you mind if I asked for a reserve?
You know that I'll deliver a great juicy non-generic non-military character. I just can't right now I'm falling asleep and I've no idea why.

Name: Rez Tereth
Age: He appears to be in his late twenties but is actually 215
Appearance: He is about 5?10 with light brown hair that he has in a buzz cut. He is somewhat athletic looking. He wears a bullet proof suit that looks somewhat like a rubber diving suit and has adhesive pads on the hands and feet that allow him to climb surfaces, and he can activate and deactivate them at will. It can only deflect bullets up to 9mm caliber and very small, weak laser fire though. So essentially it can only protect him from small arms. It is also a bio hazard suit with a detachable mask (he made this himself). He also wears a pair of goggles that look like pilot goggles (look them up if you want a picture). The lenses are green and not transparent from the outside because they are actually scanners that can trace chemical trails and analyze any material (He made these himself too). His eyes are completely grey except for the pupils but he usually hides them behind his goggles
Personality: His natural ability has made him sort of arrogant when it comes to his profession; He sometimes ignores advice from other scientists when working on a project. He has certain trust issues and won?t trust other people with things that are gravely important. He remains calm in stressful situations as best he can but he sometimes reacts very strongly because he has trouble containing his emotions. He also strongly dislikes the Civilization A.I. because they claim to be better at science than him.
Profession: He is a famous Scientist from earth famous for being extremely skilled in multiple fields. He is here to see what scientific value the specimens on this planet could have.
Weapons: He is only averagely skilled with a gun but he keeps a fast firing laser pistol on him (sorta like a laser Uzi) and extra ammo in his backpack along with his science equipment.
Bio: As stated, he is a famous scientist renowned for his work on the retro aging project. He has a history of working alone because he has trouble working with other scientists. He recently appeared in the spotlight after disappearing for a few years. He regained attention by Announcing a new and improved version of the retro-age compound. The Civilization is still negotiating payment for or seizure of the new compound. He is currently on this mission partly for science?s sake and partially because the A.I.s offered to let him keep the designs private if he agreed to go.

If you've read S. Kings Dark Tower series you should know where exactly the inspiration for this character comes from. =P
Name: Dean Allgood
Age: 39 (no enhancements)
Appearance: Dean is a scrawny build. He also has a short goatee and slicked back hair. Dean comes off to many people he meets for the first time as sleazy or shifty.
Personality:
Dean is by a joker. He is always making jokes and finding the lighter side to the darker parts of life. He tends to be very social, always trying to be in the company of others. His talkative and light attitude hides a dark past and a fear of facing it. He avoids any form of thoughtfulness or sulking.
Profession: Dean is a scientific assistant and is also trained as a paramedic as part of a first response volunteer group.
Weapons: Standard issue sidearm, scientific equipment, medical equipment.
Bio: Dean had a tough childhood, growing up with a single parent who was a drunk abusive parent, he fell into drugs and gangs by 14. He was an addict dying in the gutter by 17. Dean was saved by a charity group dedicated to helping people living in the great slums. After many years of re-education Dean joined the first response group and started a new life. He continued education supported by scholarships which came to him easily because of his personal past. After finishing an undergrad at one of the prestigious Bio-Chem institutions, Dean took up a job as an assistant to the renowned Dr. Felstory. Dean was excited to be drafted for his first field research, having never been away from his home city, or Earth.

Sorry to worry y'all, I'm just waiting on the last reserves. The call has been put out, so don't despairSneaklemming said:
Name: Kain Culann
Age: 25
Appearance: standing at 6?5?, Kain has raven black hair and azure blue eyes as cold as ice. A scar stretches from the bottom of his left eye down to his chin. His canines are also unnaturally sharp, giving him a near-feral appearance. His right hand sports a cross-shaped scar right above his heart as well, scars marring his otherwise uninjured body. He wears light boots for faster movement, comfortable yet strong jeans, and black body armor that covers his entire upper torso. He also wears a pair of black gloves, both of which have a small, dully glowing orb on the back of the hand.
Personality: Kain is normally laid back and very friendly with others, though if he is reminded of his past in some way, he will become very quiet and begin to become paranoid, jumping at every suspicious noise. Kain can normally be found conversing with his fellow beings, or he can be discovered jotting down notes on how ?Brionac? is performing.
Profession: Soldier. Kain was sent to Masada in order to test a new experimental weapon, to see if it would be effective in conquering the hostile environment there.
Weapons: Experimental weapon B-79361, codenamed ?Brionac? after the legendary 5-pointed spear of Laegh the Long Arm. Brionac consists of the pair of gloves on Kain?s hands. When activated, the two orbs of light coat Kain?s hands with energy. He is able to extend this energy up to 15 meters away. When extended, the energy keeps the shape of Kain?s arm and his fingers, thus earning the nickname ?Brionac.? The energy oscillates at nearly 1,000,000 times a second, allowing Brionac to scythe though most objects with ease.
Bio: Kain lived on Aero, one of the largest human colonies and military research outposts outside of Earth. They always had a major portal leading to earth, so military patrols were routine, coming to and fro from the portal. However, one day the research outpost shattered a container that contained a reagent that caused rapid aging, victims aging 100 years within a few months. Kain?s parents worked at the outpost and were unlucky enough to have been caught in this catastrophe. He watched helplessly as they grew old and died within 2 months. Traumatized by that event, Kain is eternally afraid of growing old and signed up for retroaging as soon as he could. He is only 25 now, but is glad he will never have to suffer as his parents did. Some military researchers who had been working with his parents had patented an experimental weapon to help with the colonization effort on Masada, and asked Kain if he would like to test it for them. Eager to get away from his homeworld, Kain agreed without a second thought.

Sorry it's so late. And yeah, I got a definite Irish vibe going in this sheet.
Search Cuchullin and Laegh the Long Arm to see what I'm talkin' about.
Hmm. I like the Brionac idea, though be careful; with me as GM, it may not necessarily work perfectly all the time...Xero Scythe said:
All sheets are in; there will be a short time in which I deliberate over the team, then we shall begin...
A decision has been reached: Nukey, Hair, Anah'ya, Xero, Orange and DethKlok are in. to everyone who din't get in; sorry, better luck next time.
OP is in the process of being written...
OP is in the process of being written...
Surfing the line of semi-real fire between the hyper and the real, the dreadnought Cheops hurtles along, her vast, brick-like bulk accelerated to the realspace equivalent of 52 thousand times the speed of light. Within the relatively small volume of her hold that contains any sort of atmosphere, the team sent to Masada reside in relative comfort, if in slightly cramped conditions. To those used to space-travel, this is nothing new, but for those who have lived only within the realms of the Civilisation, this is boring, cramped and dull. The AIs have told you almost nothing, and all one can do at the moment is wait, and talk to the other people in one's module.
One such module contains the Project Overseer, Chief Scientist, a xeno-biologist and a soldier carying experimental weaponry, the missions ssychiatrist and his journalistic twin. Each has his own bed section, but space is at a premium, and th room-mates have tended towards the central living-space, which contains a number of sofas, a food dispenser, and computer terminal that links to the Cheops' central AI

Get talking, y'all!

Hugo streched and yawned while lying on the couch in the central living-space, being in such an inorganic place was pure torture to him, even the plant and tissue samples he had brought with him failed to keep him amused after a short while. The only positive of the whole intersteller travel fiasco was that he got to meet some people that peaked his curiosity, the other Doctor aboard the ship in particular.
"Hey, whose turn is it to make dinner tonight?" he asked idly, not really expecting an answer.
Yes, life was dull on an interstellar journey.
"Hey, whose turn is it to make dinner tonight?" he asked idly, not really expecting an answer.
Yes, life was dull on an interstellar journey.
Dr. Howard Robertson was on one of the sofas, ignoring Hugo's question, was typing up some preliminary goals for his studies on the planet. The last of many pre-touchdown objectives. Howard discovered a century ago that you can get a lot done on only two hours of sleep and one hour of meditations.
Goal #18: Gain some solid samples of the mollusc tearing the surface apart. Do they dissolve different materials at a different rate? Will an electric current affect the rate of disintegration?
Goal #19...
after finish his fifty goal, Dr. Robertson closed up his portable holo-computer and got up and grabbed an artificial ham & cheese sandwich.
"AI, what is the remaining travel time until our destination? "

Kain was throwing a ball up and down in the air, occasionally looking at the other passengers, especially the journalist. He currently was not wearing his gloves, revealing the scar on his right hand "The hell is she here for? I understand the scientists, but a freakin' journalist? More importantly, I swear she looks just like my freakin' freshman teacher. Just give her a pair of glasses & she's set." Kain laughed to himself. "So, why did you guys decide to come here?" Kain asked his fellow travelers.
The terminal answered Howard in a male voice, deep but friendly, "Only a day or so now, Dr Robertson. Please, call me Cheops. It is, after all, who is am"
Howard rolled his eyes when "Cheops" asked to be humanized.
"AI, I prefer not to think of you as a person, but as a tool that I can use. Don't try to be my friend. Anyone who has tried to be my friend has made it a habit to get killed."
"AI, I prefer not to think of you as a person, but as a tool that I can use. Don't try to be my friend. Anyone who has tried to be my friend has made it a habit to get killed."
Gary eyed Howard from his seat. Other people may have thought very disapprovingly of his uncalled for retort towards the AI, but that's not how Gary worked.
He made a mental note to memorize Howard's taunting stance against the AI, and more importantly, his loner ways and rather pessimistic attitude.
As of now, Gary did not know much more about the crew than what it said in their files. Files, which sadly enough did not contain a psych report. The AI was also very unknown to him, and he had not yet had time to converse it. Therefore, he had no clue what its reaction to Howard's supremacist and slightly controversial attitude would be. It did not bother him to a large degree, and he could hardly imagine a situation where he would have to intervene.
Gary also made a note as not to get too close or in the way of the Doctor. In his case, he would merely be an observing psychiatrist -for now.
