    Why change the past when you can own this day?
    It is detailed in a book called 'The report from Iron Mountain' that if the U.S entered a long lasting peace that governments would fail and countries would fall apart. War itself brought in billions and billions of money used to keep countries running and therefore if war would cease to exist, so would the world in time. The War Economy as it is known is pivotal to the survival of the world. But to survive it, the world had to evolve. With the war in the middle east raging hotter than it ever has been along with civil wars in third world countries the blood money continued to roll into certain companies rather than countries. Those companies were slowly developing augmentations of all sorts. Now, the battlefield has been taken over by corporations. Instead of countries waging war with their countries behind them it's industries waging their own war with their own PMCs. Intel Reports state that the biggest corporation, Achne Industries have something that is quite dangerous in development.

    This gave rise to a new answer to the overwhelming problem. Codenamed 'SNAKE PIT', the team is made up of hand picked individuals who are being led by Joseph Teller Call sign Vexing Snake and his second in command Kenzi Dennis call sign Inland Taipan. The mission is to discover and if need be destroy weapon and detain the heads of Achne if allegations are proven true.





    Rules:

    • Don't be a dick so no godmodding, metaphysically knowing what the other writer knows, and no OPed character
    • Be creative but if it's too much, it probably is
    • Know enough of the mythos to write well
    • Its good to see hate among characters but try to keep the hatred to an absolute zero in the OOC
    • I'm asking for dedicated writers and if you go missing for a long period time with no reason sent to me or Simus, prepare to be executed and replaced by a hopeful
    • No railroading at your own discretion and let's not have a mini RP within a RP.
    • This will be 18+ so that's plus (GET IT)
    • More importantly, have fun with it!
    • Also this is set after Snake and The guns of the Patriots so no Snake showing up and having a meltdown about how war changes and his meltdowns
    CAST
    Wolfbane as Joseph "Vex" Teller and Kenzi Dennis and Yuri Balalaika
    Simus as Jessica Teller and Adam Benson
    Daryl Dixon as Bryce Montarello

    ShadowKitty as Nina Sidorova

    Oooh A metal gear RP.

    So is this associated with FOXHOUND? Or is it a different group entirely? (Asking due to the snake theme.)

    I am interested. Due to some funkiness I cant post a CC right now (mostly quality control, I only have an hour til work.) Do the cyborg ninjas count as godmodding? And are powers similar to canon characters allowed?

    There will be other questions as I think of them. But definitely interested.

    Other skills: trained in knife CQC (Silat, reverse/defensive and offensive knife stances),Krav Maga, and a impeccable grasp for strategy and manipulation.
    Augmentations: can pick up a language in just one conversation. His reaction time is also heightened. He has a neural link to his partner as well.

    Personality: He usually sticks to his partner and himself. He is quite solitary, only opening up once you get to know him. Vex loves history, weapons, and music, often turning towards them for comfort. Killing for a better cause is his ideal. He often sees the world in different perspectives, giving him a better understanding of his surroundings. In order to help deal with how he was brought up, music and history often helped him deal and sometimes forget what he was.

He and his partner often work off of each other whether it be getting past an obstacle, over a wall, in a tight spot, or just charming their way through things. His main fear is losing Kenzi.

    History: Joseph or rather Joe was not born from two parents. He and his sister Jess were bred from the tube each with their own perfections. Joe's senses were heightened,he was faster, and is quite good with strategy and manipulation and weapon handling. That's not to say that this gave him a real advantage. He still had to train to get where is now. Being from the tube, he had no real family aside from Jess. No parents, just the man who trained him. From the start he was conditioned how to fight, but still went through basic training to be more of a person.

    Jess on the other hand went to a loving family and had the normal life.

    Name:Kenzi 'Harvey' Dennis

    Age:25

    Codename: Inland Taipan

    Date of Birth: April 30th

    Place of birth: Oregon

    Nicknames: Kenz, Domino, Harvey

    Gender:Female

    Laterality:right handed

    Sexuality: heterosexual

    Religion: exploring different aspects

    Occupation/Role: Sniper and recon. Accompanies Vex when the situation demands it. Testing highly on the course, Kenzi was tied for the top of her class not to mention the ability to trust her gut and to be adapt to any situation. Combine this with battlefield awareness and you got a damn good marksmen.

    Weapons: M24 favoring a more traditional sniper rifle. She also has a Glock with full auto functionality and an MP5 with a collapsible stock and a under barrel pistol grip that can slide off at any time.

    Augmentations: She can gauge wind, speed and distance without setting her scope, giving an accurate shot 89% of the time. It has to be a little interesting. Being used for recon, she can hack and free run to find a better vantage point. She also shares a neural link with her partner, allowing them to communicate without voice commands.

    Other skills: she is an excellent marksman and a natural shot. Like her partner, she knows Krav Maga and CQC (knife,Karambit/Silat). Kenzi has no problem being led or the one that talks. The pair and mentally and physically work off of each other getting her to a good vantage spot, going over an obstacle or charming through a bad situation.

    Personality: Kenzi is the more outgoing an talkative one. Surprising since she likes hang back and pick off whatever gets in their way. While she is more outgoing, Joe understands people and the world better, making them perfect for each other. They suit to each others strength. Kenzi is a warm and open sincere person when it come to those she cares about, especially with Vex.


    Appearance: One brown bedroom eye and her yellow enhanced eye with a slightly square face with soft lip. She is 5'4 and lean considering what she does and quite fast. She has short blonde hair with dark streaks along with a matching tattoo of her team insignia,motto, and her call-sign. She also has her kills marked along and down her right collarbone in small tallies

    Clothing: When in dry environments, she wears her combat vest, durable black combat pants, a bandanna and sunglasses. Along with a baseball cap if need be. In colder environments she wears her bomber jacket, along bandanna/field scarf, and a skull cap.

    Misc: has the second half of the domino that Vex has She has known Vex since before their team, she is afraid of drowning and losing Joe. She refers to her augmented eye as her 'ghost eye' due to the feature of controlling it separately.

    History: Kenzi's history shows no signs of trauma. She grew up with a good family in a small town in Oregon and enlisted as a soldier sometime ago. There she met Vex, who at the time was going through basic training along with special courses to fully prepare him. After basic training she was recommended by three higher ups to apply for sniper school. There she passed what was asked of her and become a marksman. How Kenzi met Vex is highly unknown other than they were put under the same command every time. No one ever knew the commanders name; it changed from operation to operation, but what was known is the man with seemingly no name trained both Kenzi and Vex.

    The two have been under the same command for quite a long time, and now they are needed more than ever.

    To answer your questions Skies, SNAKE PIT is associated with FOXHOUND as it involves Roy Campbell and follows the goal of FOXHOUND. Cyborg ninjas is not overpowered as long as it's not like Raiden stopping a gaint submarine and as long as there is some weaknesses and flaws you should be good. Powers are fine as long they are canon. Augmentations would fit by the way of how the story goes. The story is after MGS4.

    Alright, that gives me a bit to work with.

    Also good to see Vex and Joe again. Since the other Metal Gear RP never got off the ground.

    I think I'll bee all the radio support characters and have massive walls of dialogue. Is Major Zero still around? He was a cool guy in Snake Eater.

    Name: Jessica Teller

    Age: 16

    Codename: None

    Race: Caucasian

    Gender: Female

    Place of birth: Unknown

    Date of birth: May 1st

    Appearance: 5'0" with soft blue eyes, shoulder length straight red hair, a thin oval face an endearing innocence about her. Small and skinny with no tatoos or scars and usually wears a warm smile. Her pale skin is susceptible to sunburn.

    Personality: Friendly to the point of being bubbly, well educated and interested in all kinds of technology, absolutely brilliant but physically weak. Relatively naive and innocent. Her brilliance has elevated her to opportunities most adults never dream of but her inexperience and lack of emotional maturity make things difficult.

    Gear/ weapons and skills: Jessica is an absolute wizard with anything computer related. She's an expert in hacking and protecting almost any system and has designed some brilliant computer programs for all sorts of things but her true love is augmentation. The blending of man and machine to make someone's life better. She's designed and built mechanical prosthetics, organ replacements and augmentations that have already helped thousands and promise to help millions. Jessica is serving the current mission as a technical adviser and to provide remote IT support. She is not a field agent but is staying back a Jerusalem AFB with General Roy Campbell.

    Attire: A black T-shirt and light blue skinny jeans with a white long underwear top. Over this is a black leather jacket with a gray steel zipper, zip up cuffs and a standing collar that she can snap closed. It's a fitted jacket so it hugs her form comfortably. She also wears a pair of knee high black leather boots with riding heels and a full side zipper on the inside of her leg over her jeans. They come up to just below her knees.

    Specialization: IT support. Information and analysis, advice on computer systems and augmentations, data recording and any information the field team might need.

    Dialogue color: Blue

    History: Jessica was born out of a test tube with her brother Vex but she was raised in a Virginia suburb south of Washington D.C to loving parents and a stable home. Whereas Vex was created and trained to be the ultimate soldier, echoing the highly controversial Les Enfants Terribles project from the 1970's, Jessica was created to be the ultimate computer genius. A true maker and breaker of machines, she was experimenting with technology since she could use her hands. She first built a robot arm when she was five and built a fully usable prosthetic arm when she was 12. She attached the arm to a neighbor as part of a school science fair project and the man was amazed when he found he could use the arm as if it were his own. When the school got wind of this and Jessica showed her teachers and principle exactly how she built the arm they contacted the scientific community and she was awarded a Nobel Prize.

    Soon after that Jessica went to College and then graduate school at MIT and soon found herself working for the government. All the while she had the full support of her foster parents. She was able to share all of this with them but never with her brother Vex. He was always gone for weeks or months at a time on training missions and that made the time they grew up together all too short. When Vex was 18 and went to basic training they had more time but his duties always came first. Jessica has never understood or appreciated Vex being a soldier all the time but she loves her brother and cherishes all the time they get to spend together.

    Name: Adam Jenson

    Age: 31

    Codename: Bionic Python

    Race: Caucasian

    Gender: Male

    Place of birth: Detroit Michigan

    Date of birth: July 16th 1989

    Appearance: 5'7" with a lean and strong build. He has a triangular face, short brown hair that he keeps gelled back, a well kept beard with a prominent goatee and hazel eyes that he usually keeps behind a pair of retractable mirrored sunglasses implanted directly into his face. He doesn't smile often and any smiles he does give are a sign of significant trust or friendship. Very few have earned one.

    Personality: Serious and guarded due to past trauma but allows himself to open up with people he's sure he trusts. He's very persuasive when he wants something and has extraordinary patience when convincing, negotiating or talking people down. He makes jokes when stressed or scared.

    Gear/ weapons and skills: Most of Adam's body has been replaced with machinery including all four of his limbs, his spleen and his right lung. The rest of his body has been augmented with both nanomachines and mechanical implants to a varying degree. The most prominent effect of these augmentation is his drastically changed physical appearance and his ability to extend and retract two foot long steel blades, one in each arm. The blades can be extended at his wrists or his elbows in order to stab targets in front of or behind him. The augmentations have made him stronger, faster and tougher than any normal man and have several less dramatic but invaluable effects. A brief list is as follows:

    An infolink to let him talk to anyone who knows his frequency anywhere at any time.

    A regeneration system that heals small injuries and keeps larger ones at bay for longer.

    Eye implants that give him see a neural HUD, camera fields of view and infrared lasers.

    A cranial stealth implant that lets him track targets through walls.

    A built in radar to track targets.

    Arm augments that let him punch through light walls and lift objects a norman man could not.

    Leg augments that let him jump, sprint and fall farther than a normal man.

    A cloaking system that can provide up to 30 seconds of invisibility while moving and unlimited invisibility while staying still.

    Lung augments that work like a gas mask.

    Shielding against EMP's and flashbangs.

    A reflex booster to give him lightning-quick reaction time.

    Dermal armor to protect against bullets and other projectiles.

    A social enhancer that lets him build an on the spot psych profile of a person and help analyze and persuade them.

    Attire: Black combat pants and boots and a thick set of body armor that bolts directly onto his chest. It can be removed if he wishes. Then there's his super awesome sunglasses.

    Specialization: CQC, stealth infiltration and hostage rescue and negotiation.

    Dialogue color: Orange

    History: Adam has no memory of his parents. When he was a baby they died in a mysterious fire at a lab he was being experimented on. However, he was rescue by a young married couple, the Jensons, who became his foster parents and raised him to adulthood. Despite his traumatic first weeks of life Adam was able to have a safe and happy childhood and didn't even realize he was adopted until he was 13. By then though he was old enough to mostly figure it out on his own and that made it easier to handle. Overall it didn't change much and he went on to get a degree in criminal justice at college in New York City. He fell in love with the city during his college years so he decided to stay and become a police officer. Stationed in Manhattan, he showed a remarkable aptitude for taking down criminals without serious injury and for resolving hostage situations. Usually with everyone coming out alive. This earned him recognition in the force and he soon found himself in the New York SWAT team. Adam loved the work and became addicted to the rush of combat that came with dealing with heavily armed criminals. He was also able to keep his heart settled by serving and protecting his city from incredibly dangerous people without killing for it. But after the Big Shell incident in 2009 all of that changed.

    The Big Shell installation became a landmark for New York and a symbol of environmental protection but with that came the ever-increasing threat of terrorist attack and sabotage. Adam was assigned the roll of Chief of Security for Big Shell and did everything he could to train his people for anything but none of them could have prepared them for the attack by Dead Cell and their Russian allies. The attack took everyone completely by surprise and by the time they figured out who the terrorist leader was, Solidus Snake, it was too late. Adam tried to stop Solidus himself, believing himself the only one who could. He called out to Solidus and faced him in a one on one battle.

    Adam lost. He lost bad. After taking several shot wounds Solidus picked Adam up and threw him straight through a plate glass window, tearing his left arm, chest and back to pieces and giving him a severe concussion. It was only because Solidus didn't bother checking him that Adam survived. Soon after that he was found by the ill-fated Seal Team 10 and given an emergency medevac to the mainland.

    After he was stabilized it was determined that Adam would need several prosthetics to save his life. He couldn't afford them himself but a mysterious group had taken interest in Adam's case. He had been the only person to lose to Dead Cell and still survive and that showed serious potential. This group had Adam rebuilt almost from the ground up and turned him into a mechanically augmented super soldier. When Adam realized what they had done to him he was furious and felt like a monster but over the last six months he's grown to accept and even enjoy what he's become. He never found out exactly who had given him his new life but whoever they are he's grateful beyond words. Soon after his recovery he was approached by the newly promoted General Roy Campbell and offered a spot on a special squad of the newly resurrected FOXHOUND unit. The squad was called SNAKE PIT and he was given the codename Bionic Python. Unsure exactly what to do with his life and unable to stay in the Manhattan he had failed to protect, Adam accepted.

    There's my CC's Wolf. Hope you like them. I know Jenson's from Deus Ex: Human Revolution and not really my character but I thought he would fit well in the Metal Gear universe and I feel I did a good job porting and adapting him accordingly. Let me know if you want me to change anything.

    Also, Adam never found out what Big Shell really was. Only that it made a big mess and he feels responsible. As for the mysterious group that rebuilt him, I think you can figure out who they are by yourself. Depending on what exactly happened to this group and their guns in MGS4 they may cause Adam problems in the future.

    Name: William Antonio Santos

    Sexuality: Bisexual

    Laterality: Ambidextrous

    Afflictions: Lower level Asperger’s Syndrome

    Religion: Raised Catholic, though hard to place his current philosophy

    Appearance: Due his heavily mixed racial makeup, he possesses various traits that allow him to pass as many races. Almond shaped brown eyes and high cheek bones, large lips, pronounced canines, medium skin tone (milk chocolate/caramel mix would be the best description), standing at 6’0” and 190 lbs. He is a medium build, with good muscle definition. His hair is naturally frizzy and he sports a short messy afro.

    Personality: Limited range of interest, highly ritualized activities be it combat or doing the dishes, analytical, obsessed with studying possible enemies, lives by plans survives by improving, loves tinkering with equipment, overall laid back personality.


    Gear: A high frequency blade, nicknamed Sashimi (after one of Wills favorite foods) it is about four and a half feet long, with a three and a half foot blade.

    Proportioned blocks of C4, he carries a few of these around to make shape charges to make new pathways or sabotage enemy structures/machinery/ weapons.

    A Colt Anaconda, customized with recoil stabilizers, flash suppressor, extended barrel (8in.), and a nice snake skin decal on the grips. Nicknamed: Rattler.

    Role: Skirmisher. William is best known for striking hard and accurately, carefully laying the ground work for his assault before he snaps his fingers (and triggers the C4). His understanding of the environment, paired with research of his enemy can make him seem like a ghost, or even a group of men.

    Other Skills: Keen knowledge of guns and shooting techniques, practices a mix of capoeira modified to incorporate weapons (his swordsmanship is strong against those who cannot deal with the unpredictability of his style), as well as basic military CQC techniques.

    Nanomachines: Will has specialized nanomachines meant to counteract the worst symptoms of his condition, an internal scanners in his eyes (they feed him information about his environment), Codec, and medical nanomachines.

    Specializes: In Asymmetric Warfare, his skills are all about subterfuge and setting up the board before the fight even starts. He can take on larger groups if he has the proper preparation time.

    Dialogue color

    History: William Santos grew up New York City, set apart not only by his strange heritage and uncanny appearance, but also living on the cusp of both a good neighborhood and a bad one. Growing up with Asperger’s did not help the situation as he kept to himself obsessively studying the military in general. From weapons to tactics. His obsession worried his family, though when the time came he could join, they learned that through the military their son would get nanomachines that would help his condition. They were conflicted and when they approached their son with the news, he tilted his head and asked “What do you mean?”

    He joined as soon as he turned 18 in 1997, he was off training. His time among men from other armed forces earned him the nickname “Billy the Kid” due to his overall sheltered and childlike nature. It is also possible it was due to him getting 21 confirmed kills before he even turned 21. After his service, he found himself thinking about more than just military matters. Obsessed with customizing his own gear, he was happy when the militaries of the world became private endeavors. Allowing him to have free range, fighting and proving to be a good customer to the Drebins. By 2010s he was noted to be attached to a high frequency blade he acquired from a rogue faction of the Tengu forces from the Big Shell incident. While not enhanced to use it, he has shown skill with it as long as the opponent isn’t augmented more than him to favor that combat style.

    By 2014, he was recruited by the Drebins as the nanomachines curbed his antisocial symptoms of his Asperger’s. Here he received an upgrade of sorts, besides truly having all the toys he wanted, he also gained an upgrade to his nanomachines, allowing him limited scanning of his environments allowing him to effectively plan on the fly.

    After being contacted to be a part of SNAKE PIT, William contacted his superiors. He would take his equipment, which was already requested to help stock the SNAKE PIT armory, and keep the DREBINS interests at heart, while monitoring the new contract to see if it was worth investing more in. Joining as Sidewinder, the only other name he let's the other's call him is Drebin.

    Man.. I really really want to join. Most RP's I'm in move slow, so I could handle it. But if they all suddenly sped up I'd be screwed. Wolf and Simus, you're in most of those RP's.

    Would you have me - again? (Feels like I'm stalking you guys)

    I wouldn't mind getting this going finally but you'd have to ask Wolf.

    We'll see what he says next time he's on then!

    Now I'm just curious, do Joe and Jess know each other? I know it's a silly question but were they bred from the same DNA which is why they're siblings? But if it's DNA in a tube why would they wait nearly 10 years before creating the second sibling.


    I'm just asking because of the age gap with Jess and Vex, and how Jess lived a normal life while Vex was trained as a soldier.

    Like were they aware of the others existence or will they discover such in RP? Or do they already know and only recently met?

    And how come they have the same last name, wouldn't Jess' adoptive parents given her their name?

    I'm just asking because I'm curious, if it's all hush hush just let me know haha

    Thought I answered this but they were adopted by the same family. They know each other but were made for different roles. Too bad this never got going. Skies is probably long gone by now.
