Andriod: Undercity
The future is the scythe that reaps the present.
In the name of progess, humanity has begun its crawl out of earths cradle. Colonies have been set up on the Moon and Mars. A massive space elevator, the “Beanstalk”, stretches out from the equatorial city of New Angeles like Babel. Everywhere mankind spreads outward.
But progress does not only move borders, but also the body. Advances in neurobiology have digitized the human brain, blurring the line between man and machine. No longer are computers outside of us, but they exist within our heads.
Leading this charge are the megacorporations, called corps by most, who own most every facet of day to day life, from the food we eat to the petty enjoyments of men. Jinteki and Haas-Bioroid twist the definition of life itself making clones and bioroids with braintaped, artificially intelligent minds. The Weyland Consortium dominates construction and trade, more than happy to deal dirty when the need strikes. And NBN shapes the opinions of the people. With the largest media network ever, a person may never read a news story that wasn’t preapproved by the NBN.
But where there is the light of progress, the shadow of crime lays long. These same corporations fight and squabble amongst themselves, hiring thugs and espionage agents. Criminals seek they money these corps traffic in. Anarchists fight their oppressive dominance. And then there are those who do walk the bad side of the law, in the words of hacker extraordinaire g00ru, “for the lulz”.
You are one of these individuals. You’re life is hard and you do whatever it takes to survive. You do the dirty jobs, stealing, killing, and hacking, whatever needs doing. But you do not work alone. With a group of allies, if not always friends, you make your way in this dark and twisted future.
Welcome to the Undercity.
Races:
Naturals: Your basic human being. Nothing special but that in itself can be a blessing.
G-mods: A person who received genetic therapy after conception. The modification can take the form of an appearance difference or may simply be intellectual or physical enhancements. Distinct from clones, who possess no legal rights.
Cyborgs: A natural human who has replaced one or more (or all) of their body parts with a robotic variant.
Clones: Sythetic humans grown in tanks. They are considered “biological androids” and as such do not possess human rights.
Bioriods:
These robotic humans are constructed exclusively by Haas-Bioroid. Their intelligences are based on highly advanced scans of particular human brains. For example, Alix T4LBO7, a model used in the market sector is based off the brain scans of a particularly skilled stock market trader. With the exception of pleasure-bots, most bioroid have synthskin only on their faces and hands and distinct silver eyes. However, with proper covering, they can pass for human. It’s a carefully guarded secret that bioroids have been known to break from programming and act independently.
Classes:
Runner: As a runner, you’re primary skill is hacking and disabling electronic security systems. In response to numerous incidents involving runners getting access to classified documents, most corp facility now have network “shells” where each layer is unconnected to the network before or after. This means runners have to go into the facility to access documents. A valuable support class with weak combat abilities.
Combat-specialist: When things get heavy, you bring the pain. Its always the hope that the mission goes smoothly, but when it doesn’t your team is happy you’re around. With heavy weapons, and the skill to use them, you dominate a firefight.
Covert Ops: Corps guard their facilities with more men than you can hope to defeat. So don’t. The covert Ops unit specializes in getting through their defenses unseen and unheard. Don’t get caught!
Support: A catch all term for many different types of characters. Medics, demolition, and face type characters all fall under the auspices of the Support class. You bring an intangible edge and make the rest of the team work better.
Important Note: When making your character, leave your “Team” and “Bio” fields blank.
After every one has posted their character, I will distribute the characters into teams, most likely two. Each team is encouraged to talk amongst themselves to determine how their character came to be allied with each other. If you really want to go the extra mile, you can even talk to members of the other team to form possible rivalries or other backgrounds to add tension when the two teams encounter one another.
Each team operates independently, and will be given mission, sometimes these missions will involve the two teams working together, other times they will be oppose, and occasionally their missions will be parallel and not necessarily intersect.

I edited just his name and personality.
Name: Fate
Gender: Female
Race: G-Mod

Appearance: (See attachment)
Personality: Brash and temperamental. A horrible temper only quelled with sly words or alcohol. She repeatedly acts within her own guidelines of right and wrong and actively scorns her allies for mistakes and tendencies. Under this strong façade lies a simple individual simply searching for a place to call home. She holds her allies dear to her.

Re: Sign Up: Android: Undercity
Name: Marcus "Scar" Raines
Gender: M
Race: Clone
Age: 24
Appearance: Marcus looks like an average human being. He has hair long black hair tied in a low pony tail. He was grown to about average size. Since he spends some of his time at clubs he'll keep his attire slightly respectable when there. Otherwise he keeps it common with a jacket over a simple shirt, loose pants and combat boots. A unique point about his looks; he's always wearing a grey scarf around his neck. To hide both a hideous scar and his clone barcode.
Personality: He's a bit argumentive. He has a hard time trusting people and keeps a lot of secrets due to his "nature". He CAN be a bit talkative, however. Which puts him in a pinch of trouble. He tries to blend in as a normal human, but strongly believes that clones should have the same legal rights as humans. He believes clones ARE people. He also has a minor drug addiction and a guilty pleasure of Eve bioroids.

Name: "Spades" is the name he goes by and introduces himself as, but official documentation has his name as Hector Bax
Gender: M
Race: Natural
Age: 32
Appearance: http://0-media-cdn.foolz.us/ffuuka/b...7389795832.jpg
Personality: He always expects the worst from people or situations and thus prefers to have a few back up plans. He is confident in his own abilities and holds a bit of a bias against G-mods, though he doesn't share that. An inner conflict between being reserved and peaceful or vengeful makes him slightly aloof. He can have a hard time forgiving people and thus will hold grudges.

Age: (Appears Mid 20s)
Appearance:http://www.animeforum.com/attachment...8&d=1376463489
Personality: Distant, Cautious, Deceitful, and majorly unpredictable. Mavis is cold to most people he meets, unless they can benefit him. With an untrusting, unwavoring demeanor most are cautious around him as his eyes seem ablaze with an unruly anger. When at work he is calculated and leaves little to chance. Those who know him are few and those who "really know" Mavis are even fewer. A furious young man with little more than a chip on his shoulder.

Re: Sign Up: Android: Undercity
Name: Veldia Ysola
Gender: Female
Race: Android
Age: 27
Appearance: Here
Personality:
Veldia's personality adapts to the situation at hand, Almost to a psychological level. When she has a goal in mind, all aspects of her personality blend into a usable form. This suggests that she has been through terrible trauma in her early life, but most don't see enough of her to come to such a conclusion. Otherwise distant, almost empty when she is without purpose.
Class:
Covert Ops
Team: Cybermetric Recon and Resource Squad (I guess is our team name?)
Bio:
Veldia was born into the common slums, like many others in this future world. Her parents were simply 'blue collar' workers for separate companies, and with a lack of resources otherwise Veldia was left to her own devices when her parents had to work. For the most part she heeded her parent's daily warnings, keep on task with chores (when she was old enough) and keep inside away from strangers. This relatively isolated existence was bearable by the kindness of their neighbor, an old woman who'd sit with her through the day.
When she hit around the age of ten her life changed forever. Someone used her father as a scapegoat in a Company Scandel, blaming the lowly Janitor for embezzling funds. Instead of taking their 'trouble' public, they decided a discrete termination was in order. One that brought the images of slaughter to Veldia's life. She hid behind the filter of their small ventilation system, watching the demise of her childhood through thin metal strips.
When it was over, and the building was burned down, she exited her once safe haven into a world that wouldn't care. At least, until she was found by a Government Agency. Said Agency made a deal with Weyland, a Child Soldier program which slowly exchanged the biological parts of their subjects with Cybernetic ones. She was trained and put on missions of increasing difficulty and complexity through her teenage years. There was no life, only the task drove her on.
The project was shut down and put under wraps when she hit the age of twenty. Managing an escape from her ensuing captors, she moved onto the life of a mercenary. There was nothing without the thrill of the task, without the meaning and purpose granted by the objective. She lived this way until she met Lilith (@Ωmega : If this is cool. O: ). She fell into a sewer after taking significant damage from the security system of her target, her arm shot fairly bad. She aquired her target, but needed repairs. Lilith found her and offered repairs after a few haughty words about her superior intellect, which were received all too well by Veldia. Lilith offered her a chance to join the CRRS, and she took it, for the promise of tasks to be accomplished.
@Luzifer How does this look?

Re: Sign Up: Android: Undercity
Name: Alt 2313374U (Not sure if that's right. Also I probably like Paranoia name schemes too much)
Age 1
Gender: Female
Race Bioroid
Class: Runner
http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps6a2f1521.jpg
Personality: Alt just couldn't get enough of her network security work. Nothing delighted her more, and she's generally delighted by most things. She finds so many things novel and interesting. She suspects this may be because her brain scans were from someone who didn't get out much.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: Current ID says Quinn Holt
Gender: Male
Age: 49
Race: Cyborg (do we get to lay out what sort of mods they have?)
Class: support
Apperance: http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps972c61d2.jpg
Personality: Quinn is, well, a bit bitter. He expected to be spending his days on a beach supported by a fat offshore account by now. But he was always temped by the next piece of expensive ware or equipment to make him that much better for the next job,or maybe some damage set him back. He'd mastered a lot of skills in his time, and with almost every youngblood he meets he feels like he was better than they were at whatever it is they think they're good at in this biz. But security measures move on, and the tricks you knew as a runner or covert ops specialist suddenly aren't nearly so relevant, and while he fancied himself quite the face in addition to his other skills, he finds himself hoping he only has to talk his way past a middle aged lady these days. His cyberware doesn't even work quite as well as it used to. He thought he might have a had a lock picking up some medic skills, but people don't even have the decency of bleeding like they used to anymore...or even being actual people these days with all those biowhatever freaks wandering around. He's taken to drinking and smoking although not too much of either gets through his filters.

Aw. You look like fun. However I believe the GM has abandoned this game. Make it very tempting to start a cyberpunkish game of my own though...
