John, in a lot of respects, was a boot Marine. The Boot stage is, if the recruit is the larva of the Marine, the Boot is the Chrysalis. Not the fully formed grass-growing death machine, but still has a long way to go. Which is why John found out, rather quickly, that he doesn’t like combat drops. Or...

His name is John Ortiz actually. And RL hit me hard this week.

Character uploaded, John Ortiz.

Idea: You guys can discover that not all of 29th Platoon is dead. One is still alive (Ortiz, platoon's designated marksman), and is either hiding, guerrilla campaign a la John McClane, or captured.

Trick Shots?

I'll take the first one. LCpl Ortiz, or a really skilled PFC. Your pick.

Yeah, since my character has a strength of 16, it seemed appropriate.

Hey guys, Giosso dragged me back here. Thought the site had honestly up and died (I saw why Nick, completely understandable).

His thoughts rapid...

Quinn had just about finished sewing up Morse's stump when he heard the whine of the drone's engines rapidly growing louder. Doppler effect, object approaching. the analytical part of his mind reported as the mining craft appeared, a long rifle slung underneath it and firing at their position. Snatc...

Hey guys, I owe you a helluva explanation. Haven't been posting because shit has been hectic on my end. New job has been keeping me running, and financial issues abound (Internet at my place has been cut off to give you an idea). As a result, been fighting off exhaustion and depression in equal meas...

They make shock knives nowadays, but primarily as training tools (stings a fair bit). Should be a matter of bigger battery and amping up the voltage.
