NAME: Whit! CONTACT:whitticus OR on disco at whitticus#8139 OR a PM to this account. Feel free to add me. TIMEZONE: EST
CHARACTER: This is SOLDIER: 76 from CANON: OVERWATCH GAME GOALS: 76 is coming here in kind of a bad spot. tl;dr he helped end the robot war, ran a peacekeeping operation for 20 years, was betrayed, blown up, and is now a rage-fueled revenge machine out to uncover THE CONSPIRACY (check out his app for further reading). Being part of COST is going to forcibly broaden his scope. I'm very excited to get him functioning without all the fancy experimental equipment he stole from the government and sort of make him rely on his own abilities and know-how (which are not necessarily insubstantial--he is Old but he's also a Captain America-style super soldier), while learning how to function as part of a team again.
He's also an avid conspiracy theorist and isn't entirely sold on this. Following orders is something he's good at, but with a blank in his memory about how he even joined this thing, he can't rule out kidnapping or weird simulations or even whether or not COST is the good guys. Maybe he'll get to dig around in that sandbox a little bit. We'll sseeeee.
PLOT PLANS: WHEN DO WE GET REAL GUNS......76 is, again, here without any of his equipment so he's going to continue missing his bigass gun that he stole from the government, and he's also really pissed off that he's been kidnapped away from his sniper wifle former SIC and all of the Very Important Conspiracy Things they were doing. Other than that, he does well when he just throws himself headfirst into the thick of it and doesn't think about stuff like the space-time continuum, so he'll be finding something to keep him occupied, like making sure nobody on the team is an obvious liability. Everyone come meet your new dad, if your dad was not very nice and also all his dadly advice is about how to fight things. For the first part, at least, I'm interested in getting him settled in, meeting people, coming to terms with the fact that this is Real.
I also didn't get to touch as many of you on the TDM as I would have liked, so I am also very excited for that. Wiggles fingers.
DESIRED CR: I want everything, but as I expect a lot of his initial encounters to be on the slightly antagonistic side (he’s grumpy), I’d love to try and seek out people he might get along with or tolerate, too. He’s a hardcore military-type and will probably do well with other hardcore military-types, mercenaries, or fellow professionals, if only because they might *~*~*understand each other*~*~*. Most neutral encounters will probably be awkward because he’s awkward, mitigated by the fact that fighting wars is kind of what he Knows and he'll be a little more willing to impart his knowledge, but that’s okay because I love awkward. THROW WHATEVER AT ME FOR NOW I CAN TAKE IT.
