OOC CASTING CALL: Deep Cover

[superstud1134]

Hey all this is my first time doing this so if it seems a tad sketchy bear with me, I'm still a rookie. What I'm thinking for a thread is about a team of young special/ black op agents working for the CIA. Most of them are the troubled type and have skill in demolition computer hacking ect and they were recuited for those skills that they have. It's kind of a cross between James Bond, The Mod Squad and Alias I guess.

Here's what I need for a cast:

The Team:
I need a wide varitey of people, each speicalizing in something different like combat, intelliegence, demolition, computer hacking, ect. Also I need a boss for them, someone to over look them and a technical guy to breif them about missions.

Opposition:
This will vary from mission to mission I guess but I would like to have one main evil enity against these guys, but small time or temporay villians could work too. Ideas are more than welcome

Miscellaneous
I'll also need people to play informants, specialist and contacts in different places along the way

Here's my char thus far:

Name: Lucas Talvarian (Luke for short)
Vitals: 6'0 155 lbs. brown hair and eyes, regular build, glasses, goatee, dresses casual....very casual
Age: 22
Speciality: Fraud and Impressionation, also a bit of hacking
Bio: Originally from Boston, Luke is a laid back guy with a sense of humor like no other. He finds something humorous in every situation. A big risk taker he'll do anything for the job or experience of it. He once disguised himself as an agent and snuck into the Pentagon "for the fun of it", but he got caught and that's how he ended up "volunteering" for the team. Another thing is he is fiercely loyal to his friends. If one of them is in any kind of trouble he would walk right into hell to help them.

This is an open thread so anyone and everyone is welcome to join. I'll keep the casting call up for about a week or so. Suggestions are more than welcome and asked for seeing how I am a rookie. Lookin foward to RPin' with ya'll.

 

[Dark Warrior]

I'm in.

Name: Joseph Johnston (aka JJ)
Age: 27
Height: 6'4
Weight: 182 lbs
Hair: Close shaved, brown/blonde
Eyes: Green
Speciality: Combat, Demolition
Bio: JJ tells people that he was born, and plans to die, on the battle field. His real past is a bit of a mystery, as he seems to dislike telling anyone, and generally you don't go against this guy's will. He seems to have been born a fighter, and from a very young age, he showed remarkable prowess with all types of weaponry. He has a past in the elite forces of the military, but was discharged for breaking four of his superior's bones in a single, lightning-fast attack. His life seemed to be spiralling downwards after the discharge, and he became reliant on alcohol and ciggarettes to fix his worries. However, he was soon given an offer for a position on a top-secret group. Figuring he wasn't going anywhere anyway, he agreed.
JJ is a gruff person, but not unfriendly; he doesn't like being bossed around, and the few people who have the nerve to try often end up in a bad way.


Is that OK? Gimme a yell if there's anything you want me to fix up.

 

[superstud1134]

sounds good mate, glad to have you aboard

Jolynn Ashford

Age: 28
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 135
Hair: Long and black
Eyes: Violet

Specialty: Assassinations, Combat

History: Trained by the government to be an assassin since she was 20, Jo is quick, methodical and doesn't let anything stand in her way. Her father brought her into government work though his job was in intellegence and he never really knew what line of work Jo ended up in. She was brought onto the team when her father ended up dead, the result of a contract written out by his own government after he stumbled onto some information that he shouldn't have had. Weeks after her father's funeral the person in her father's department that was responsible for arranging his 'accident' was found dead as well. No one could pin it on Jo but all suspicion pointed to her and she was deemed a 'loose cannon' and switched to the team.

Personal notes: During a mission, Jo is prone to be methodical and single minded about her job. She uses sarcasm to break the ice when the going gets tough. Off the job she is not big on socializing outside of the team and even with her teammates there is only so much she will reveal. She is cautious and it takes a bit to gain her trust but once trust is gained there is nothing she wont do for the person. Her teammates are among the few in that category.

(Okay, there is my char. Let me know if it is acceptable or not)

 

[superstud1134]

that sounds fine to me glad to have ya

 

[Lord Alexander]

OOC - do you mind if I join in here? Anyway, here's a character. Is he okay?

Name - William Mayhew
Age - 24
Height - 5'7"
Eyes - very dark blue
Hair - blue/black
Specialities - sharp shooting, intelligence

Bio - born in Hong Kong to a British father and Chinese mother, he was sent to boarding school in the UK aged 8, where he realised he had to look out for himself. Here he learned to shoot, and his prowess led to his enrollment in Oxford. However, he had to leave a promising academical career when his father's business went broke. He enrolled in the Secret Services, but was sent over to the States to become a member of the team because of his knowledge of guns and his intellectual capabilities. Will experienced racism in school, and is therefore naturally wary of most people. He can be rather tactless and blunt, but is usually charming, almost flirtateous, to everyone. This has got him into serious trouble before. Will also wishes he could be three inches taller...

Character

Here is my character application:

Natasha Parishnikov

Age 31
Height 6'1"
Eyes: blue-gray
Hair: brown

Born in Moscow, U.S.S.R. in 1971, to a K.G.B. Colonel father and a Russian Army Captain mother (a general's aide), Natasha was given an excellent start at success in the Russian military/security machine. Performing excellently in athletics and academics at a young age, Natasha expressed an interest in psychology early on and this, combined with her academic success and prowess in the heptathlon as well as her family history and Party membership allowed her to get into the prestigious Dzerzhinskiy Military Academy, where she double-majored in psychology and English. Despite her sex and lack of physical bulk compared to other applicants (despite her athletic frame) she joined the Spetsnaz after graduating, just as the U.S.S.R. fell down around everyone's ears. Seeing action in Chechnya and rising to the rank of Captain, she transferred after several successful years, at age 27, into the Foreign Intelligence Service. Her military experience and psychology education made her an ideal candidate, and she was trained in several espionage and foreign-based counter espionage techniques. Currently, the election of Putin and the recent beginnings of restoration of Russian power have made her excited to be in the service of her country, and will stop at nothing to complete any missions she might have...no matter if her hands are stained in blood.

Description:

This a very tall woman, standing at an imposing six feet, one inch tall, her strong frame making her look to weigh perhaps a hundred sixty or a hundred seventy. Short, somewhat raggedly cut reddish brown hair sits above her face, which is attractively featured, with a statuesque jawline, wide-set eyes, and authoritative cheekbones. With makeup, long hair, and a softer expression, she'd probably be stunning, but as it is now, she is still...interesting, even quite attractive if one likes the strong type. One would probably place her to be in her early thirties, not from any age showing on her face, but from her bearing. She wears a pair of dark wraparound sunglasses, concealing her eyes from view, and most of the time her full lips are twisted into a little smirk.

She wears a long, dark overcoat, unbuttoned, heavy plates of armor apparently lined into it, the coat moving not as cloth but almost as a patchwork of plates. As the coat is worn open, it can be seen that she wears a white t-shirt under the coat. Her shoulders are wide and square, rather masculine, and her body is lean, tough, and strong, muscles showing under the arms of the coat when she moves. A full bust is apparently the only nod her body gives to femininity, and her torso tapers to a narrow waist. A belt keeps her shirt tucked into a simple pair of blue jeans, not too loose or too tight, which sheathe long, toned, strong legs. They lead into a pair of tough, serviceable combat boots that seem to have seen years of service.

Hope you like my character! ^_^ Nice to meet you all!

Name: Adam Perrino
Age:24
Eyes:green
Hair:dark blond
Hieght:6'4
Wieght:155lbs
Speciality: Stealth/infilltration/espionage
Bio: Youngest child of a very large family with 8 brothers all the macho asshole type, he grew up fighting bigger, stronger, faster, more experienced "advasaries" this is where he developed his unusual fighting style and where he learned to sneak around unnoticed. Given his personality noone knows exactly why he got into the military or the special forces but once there he excelled at hand to hand with little coaching the same went for almost every field. His attitude however got him kicked out of the military and recruted by the team. He may be skinny and rather goofy looking but he is an extremly agile and skilled warrior that is constantly underestimated
Personality: Wierd, growing up in a family of people that in his eyes where too similar Adam strived to set himself apart and does so by being wierd, really wierd

 

[xMorganx]

oooh me too..

Name: Melinie Hyatt
Age:23
Eyes:blue-green
Hair:shoulder length blonde
height:5'4"
weight:118lbs

specialties:hacking and medical Examiner/forinsics

Looks very pixie like and quite cute for lack of words. wears thin silver glasses and short skirts and tight tops often.

Melinie used to hack into goverment computers as a kid and is very expearenced in the field. When she was caught at age 15 the CIA offered her a job at cracking codes to begin with. This helped fund her way thruogh college where she got a degree in forinsic science. Over the years she has honed her natural computer abilites and is now considered the Elite in the field.
After her father was shot by the russian mafia in front of her at the age of 13 she has been in and out of private acadimes all over the world so she has some knowledge of foriagn languages. Most of the time she is found sitting in front of a computer hiding in her own world of codes, serial numbers, and other things of the sort. Most rookie agents in her feild try to ask her out on dates but find it is useless because she is a "lone wolf" of sorts. Albiet that the higher ups want her to start working on her people skills and get her going out on recon and other things of the sort. Mel will be very short and cool to anyone she dosen't know well, since she has few friends.
