With 3 people now, possibly four we are about half way to the minimum I would like to have. Worst case scenario we COULD start with what we have but I would for sure prefer a few more in case of dropouts and whatnot.

Just in case you feel like you need some kind of inspiration...

Using one of those will be a bit unfair to the regular foot soldier XD

But thanks for the link, it helps with my idea on a mech.

EDIT:

Here's the sheet:

Name: Fallon Calces
Race: Bodneri
Abilities/Weapons: Mech pilot. She also has a few cast iron balls filled with explosive powders. On the field she carries one explosive grenade that is primarily lit by fuse, and two grenade that releases a smoke cloud for retreat or signaling. Other than that she has a short dagger in a sheath on her leg. Her mech throws the grenades but has to drop the Multitool that it carries in its free hand. On the other hand is a strong, hardy blade built into its arm. She also has caltrops at the ready in a storage pouch built into the back of her mech.


Age: 30
Personality: Strict, stern and stoic are words to describe Fallon. She often lets her actions speak for her instead of her words so she keeps to herself most of them time. Fallon also relies on herself rather than others, believing strongly in independence. This professional approach to her driving has worked for her, so far and she has no intention of giving it up. Fallon is no fool in combat either and is very aggressive in her actions.
Appearance: Fallon is short like most of Bodneri and is relatively thin. She has dark brown eyes and auburn hair wrapped in a bun. There is a star-shaped scar under her right eye and the tattoo of her family crest on her shoulder blade. On the battlefield, she wears the standard Bodneri uniform for mech pilots with a sheath for a dagger on her leg.
Biography: Born into the "Halfies" social group, Fallon was better off as compared to most Bodneri but not the ones on the absolute zenith of the social ladder. The "Calces" family in particular was a family that helped pave the way for firearms to be put into the hands of Bodneri infantry with their tinkering in Alchemy, a practice that still makes rounds in her family. She is the eldest in her fairly large family but not the first to be in the fighting forces. Her father was a mech pilot before her so she took upon herself to be in the Bodneri military as well. Fallon had a longer time, training in the use of her mech but it was time well spent as she made a name for herself with her mech in combat. She also dabbled in Alchemy like much of family still does as they try to find a way to make the gunpowder more efficient and deadly at the same time. Somewhere along that road, Fallon's father discovered a way to harness the gunpowder's explosive power without resorting to barrel tons being used at a time. He tested them out and they worked well but to test them out on the battlefield, he gave them to Fallon. As safe tested as they are, the "grenades" are still in the experimental phase. The father still very cares much for Fallon especially with word of the powerful city of Ophilia being abandoned with the riches for the taking.

If there are any issues please tell me and of course criticisms or suggestions are welcome.
Overall, I am a fan of this one. I was waiting to see what you would do with alchemy and that is perfectly fine. So while I can not one hundred percent accept it, due to not having all the applications. I am pretty sure I will in the end. So yeah haha.

I'm interested in this, but my Internet has been spazzing out something awful today, so a sheet will be created and posted tomorrow as soon as possible! Hopefully I get in on time and the sheet is up to your standard!

Name: Siy're Teon

Race: Bodneri - Non Relates

Abilities/weapons: As an infantry scout, Siy're carries the a lightened version of the standard infantry multi-tool and a unique steam-operated pistol which carries 4 rounds in the central cylinder, while it is quick to reload, the pistol jams often if used quickly and tends to be highly inaccurate. Siy're has also forsaken much of the armour that typical infantry use as it hinders his mobility.

Age: 27

Personality: When not in battle or scouting, Siy're tends to be very laid back and loves to joke with people, he is referred to as a motor mouth by his commander since he never shuts up unless out in the field and silence is required. Despite the turmoil that is engulfing the world, Siy're will trust virtually anyone unless they aim a weapon directly at him or his comrades. His allies are the primary concern for him when they are in the field and he would rather dive into danger than see one of his friends hurt.
As soon as his unit enters battle, Siy're is stone cold and will not show any mercy despite his friendly attitude as he realises that battles are a case of "it's them or me that dies".

Appearance: Siy're, like all Bodneri is short standing at just over 4'9", his skin is an oily black, his muscles are tightly banded and fairly small. His eyes match his skin, being virtually pitch black, a feature which helps during his scouting, his hair is cropped close to his scalp, barely being fuzz atop his head.
Siy're wears the typical Bodneri scouting uniform, a dark green overall to help blend into forest areas and the darkness that the commonly operate in. The right side of his face is marked by three scars from a mountain lion attack that occurred during his training. He also wears a custom made holster for his pistol and storage pack for the rounds he carries.

Biography: Born as a Non Relates, Siy're had very little opportunities in life and quickly joined the military as soon as he became of age, until he was of age, Siy're spent his time working in an arms factory where he was part of the manufacturing line, building the rifles that would go to the military upon completion. It was here a friend of his, who was in a much higher position began to create the pistol that he used, as a surprise for his 18th birthday. It was shortly before this that he learned of Siy'res' intention to join the military, so it became a joint present as congratulations for becoming part of the military force and his birthday.

While Siy're was happy to be fighting for his country, he always wanted to be more than just a regular grunt for the army, upon learning of the scouting units, Siy're immediately applied and was given a chance to fully become a member if he could complete the training, a trek through the mountains with fellow trainees while being stalked by regular army soldiers. It was here that a mountain lion attacked the group of trainees, killing several before jumping on Siy're, it was only because of Siy're's quick responses and the pistol being easy to handle that he survived the attack, placing the pistol against the mountain lions bottom jaw and executing the lion, escaping with minimal injuries.

Over the past 6 years, Siy're has completed many missions with the scouting units and upon learning of the Ophillian city and the riches that were left free, the military had begun to move.
Any problems, let me know! I hope I've not stepped over the bounds with the pistol and that.
