Hazmat: The Delta Contagion, Sign-Up and Discussion

What's with all the Marines? Lol.

I know, so many marines, you know there are other divisions and units that are in the U.S. Military. We don't all need to be marines, I mean Loran is a Ranger, and as the saying goes- Rangers lead the way. And I'm not even American.

You are the best of the best, you are United States Marines, part of the Hazardous Materials Division. As a Hazmat member your job is simple, you go in and clean up any potential hazards by any and all means. You have been under-fire before, you have been in hot zones before.

I assumed this meant we were all part of the Marines. Ethan started out in the U.S Army before going to the Navy pretty much because of that.

I like the Marines. I know nothing about them, but I like them. They're still around forty thousand years later, in space. 😛

I picked the Marines because my characters were already Marines in the last rp.

Great, bring her in, sounds unhinged.

Flu going around right now. Not my best time for ideas. I have to read through the roleplay then I can post. My head is throbbing. Don't worry, I'll post.

P.S. Just so you all know, this sickness has been going on for the last 2 weeks. That's why I haven't been active. It's not because I've been being lazy or have forgotten about you.

In Soviet Russia, Flu is sick of you!

And here I was, worried that another game was doomed to failure.

Character Archive and possibly location archive and maps coming soon.

Here is the tunnel we are in (kinda). Imagine the walls entirely concrete, with vents, and lights are parallel with the run of the tunnel.

By the way, reminder- If you don't have the speciality to do something doesn't mean you can't do it, just try to be realistic about it. I will say as the game progresses you can earn new skills. Also all basic Hazmat skills we can assume we have been trained to an acceptable level in, anything further is just super training (if you know what I mean). lol

Biography: Malconin was born in Australia but moved to the US with his parents when he was only a toddler. A James Bond nut in his youth, he wanted to get into military/government service but got his start in working life with his fathers security company at just 16 years of age, excelling during his firearms training and impressing with his abilities to organize small scale security details.
By the age of 20 he had branched out and formed his own security company ‘Orion Security’, starting off with small time jobs and over the course of the next fifteen years, building the company into one of the largest and most sought after security firms in the country. By 33 he had established strong alliances with most of the US military organizations and as a result has many high profile contacts within them.
By 35, the company had branched out into private HazChem security operations, dealing in transport of hazardous research materials and the clean-up of any mishaps, as well as security details under military contracts.
Known as a cold and calculating person and as somewhat of a mercenary within his own organization, Malconin has also personally performed a number of Black Ops operations for some of his high profile friends in the military. His mercenary nature and cold, standoffish attitude sees most of the regular soldiers/marines hold a strong dislike for him and being used to running things he does not react too well to taking orders, though he has the common sense to rein this in when needed.

This is somewhat like what Malconins security uniform looks like, only the shoulder pads are red with a black patch depicting a red moon inside the Southern Cross star constellation.

Also, instead of the helmet, he wears a hat similar to a Nazi SS hat, with the same logo on the front of the hat as on the shoulder pads.

Basically, a more modern version of the SS uniform...and no, I don't support or condone the Nazi's in any way, shape or form....it's just that the bag guys always have the coolest looking uniforms!!!

Indeed. But in future (and this goes for games by other people) please await go-ahead for your characters here, before posting in the RP thread. I believe it is possible you mis-understood something I said in PM, but it's cool. I did have some ideas on your entrance, however. Let me know. 🙂

Yes, sorry dude, my bad. It was just that I wanted to get what I had in mind written down before I had to head off to bed, as I was heading to work @ 0420 the next morning...

Is it safe to assume that we are caught unprepared? Though I don't know if we have already been in yet, I'm about to read. Every muscle in my body is making me pay for not being in bed but I refuse to go until I've at least posted once.

Don't over-do it mate... Still on the intro at the moment for the most part.

over-do it? What do you mean, that is an intro.
