IQ: - above average.

EDUCATION: dual majored in college to become a doctor and pharmacist, and army reserve.

HOME LIFE-

..............When growing up: (attitude toward parents, grandparents, siblings & friends)

dysfunctional family, was mostly submissive towards his elders due to piety, altough some of his warrented disagreements were responded to a swift beating. Older siblings help was variable, hard to relate to those that were 10 and 12 years older. In his high school/ college years, he was very introverted, and gave up fighting his family, and decided to bide his time.

Childhood and high school friends were few, and he didn't stay in contact with them after college. College friends were few, but very close.

..............Present attitudes toward above and toward a loved one:

Less strained relationship with the elders, the distance between them all has helped that. However, feelings of animosity towards them quickly surface within 15 minutes of talking to any of them. Relationship with siblings is a little closer, now that they're all out of college, and working. Rarely gets to see them due to his schedule

College friends are a second family. He see's them on a more regular basis, and feels closer to them. He is saddened that he is the only one of the bunch who is still single.

 

AMUSEMENTS, HOBBIES, PLEASURES: enjoys to read romance and science fiction novels, watch the food network, TLC, discovery, and history channels. He plays various computer games and consoles.

FAULTS: talks too much to those he's gotten close too. but even if he's opened up to the person, he never completely trusts them.

 

RELIGION: Agnostic (acknowledges/ believes there is a (or several) higher being in the universe, but does not fully accept any established religion)

MORALS: sees things in black white and mostly gray. As much as he hates the gray, he enjoys it too. He curses and smiles when he tells himself, guess thats that helps make it gray.

SEXUAL DRIVE: heterosexual, Minimal experience, but horny as a high-schooler.

FRUSTRATIONS, IRRITATIONS: Hates those who like to use force as intimidation, while appreciates and understands it. Wants to teach every cocky person humility.

 

INNER CONFLICTING FRUSTRATIONS: he never completely trusts anyone, nor would be become surprised if he was betrayed and his personal details were spread like wildfire. He is never completely happy, nor sad. Although he becomes emotionally attached to people over time, signs of apathy creep out sometimes. Wants high seats of power, but doesn't want the attention, therefore doesn't grab them.

 

TEMPERAMENT: outwardly patient and nice with people. If someone is really pissing him off, he only masks and suppresses his anger.

SUPERSTITIONS:

IMAGINATION: Swings in extremes; vivid, violent scenarios of revenge on his past real life demons and a calm, relaxing recurrent fantasies of him looking out to various backgrounds. In those fantasies, he is always smiling, spooning a faceless woman, and looking out together.

 

UNUSUAL AND/OR HABITUAL GESTURES: - flails his arms alot when talking to those he's warmed up to.

 

CHARACTERISTIC MANNER OF SPEAKING: - very soft spoken, almost a mumble when talking to many (unless he's opened up to them). stutters with everyone

VOICE (sound): moderately deep, frequented with his voice cracking.

FIRST IMPRESSION ON OTHERS: nerd who's will can be easily broken and subsequently bossed around.

POLITICAL AFFILIATIONS: none at the moment, is a mix between republican and democratic.

 

OTHER:

 

Being the weak, shy nerd, Michael was frequently bullied and picked on up until college. The remaining permanent scars from the cuts, bruises, and chemical burns on his upper body, face, arms, and hands are evidence of it. Although he has poor people skills, and lacks confidence in social settings, he has high confidence in his own abilities and decisions, and rarely yields when he knows he is in the right.

 

CHARACTER GROWTH:

Has been called to active duty in several occasions as a medic.

Although he is physically weaker than the average soldier, his knowledge in human anatomy has helped him in combat situations.

People are not entirely sure of his abilities as a 'medic' due to his timidness, and are only persuaded by seeing him in action or hearing tales of it.

 

Other stats

 

Strength - below average (for a soldier) above average for a civilian

Speed - Average

Agility - Average

Character's Mental Condition - Stable, but dances on the edge when stressed.

Main skills - Medic. (he's only army reserve)

Psionic Strength - High (89 - actual value on a developed character i had once named seigfried berger. he spent 97 days healing once before psi labs were discovered. good thing i didn't fire him)

Psionic potential - Above average now, can become high

Bravery - low

Weapons - Smalll arms - Average.

Heavy Arms - below average

Rifles - Average in combat, Highly accurate (but not elite enough to put 12 rounds through 1 hole ) if in a sniper position

Grenades - hit or miss. either hes dead on, or waaaaay off. He should lob grenades only if no one else around him can.

Close quarter - Average.

Combat style - Aims to disable, incapacitate. But can kill if need be.

Character's Controller - Public

Introduce him into the plot after Psionic labs are actually fully researched. (so thats gonna be a loooong way to go)

See him introduced in Terror mission in nyc? or a city where the poor guy is vacationing. xcom soldier saves the doctor, but gets injured and knocked out in the process. Doctor patches him up, hides him. Soldier wakes up after Skyranger pulls out, success of mission is TBA. Soldier is watched over and somehow calmed by the doctor (without drugs) until picked up by the clean up crew.

 

Somehow get him placed as a medic into a combat group, and eventually considered as a powerful psi-soldier when the R&D screen him (since his combat skills are limited). (I'm assuming X-com will be screening soldiers for psi susceptibility, and subsequent squad placement, when Psionics are better understood?)

 

 

IF(?) /when he is placed in a xcom base, (hopefully by the time psi labs are around, there will be several xcom bases) he'll be frowned upon by the other soldiers because he's not as good as them, and he'll be intimidated by them. He inially wins them over by being able to patch the wounded exceptionally well, and after training, he'll be able to keep up with squad movement, but his aim would still be lacking for the most part.

 

but if he's not working too well, just whack him, but make his death a good death.

(i can only picture some generalities for the guy. my imagination is spotty to come up with vivid, linear details like everyone else)

[Alpha_Monkey]

Name:

Master Sergeant (now presumably a rookie again, heh) Jacob Mosovich

 

Callsign: Jake the Snake

 

Background:

 

Did one tour with regular US army, then went SpecOps, making several tours in 'nam, including one eventful mission swimming his ass deep upriver to rescue a downed aviator. Supposedly died in the early eighties in an automotive accident. In which the body was too badly burnt for a definite ID, of course.

 

Eventually ended up being recruited into governmental black-ops to do various dangerous, illegal, or morally dubious (yep) tasks in locales around the world. Anything from assassination, retrieval of sensitive items/info/people, pathfinding ops, and so forth....

 

He considered himself a seasoned veteran, a natural born warrior, and thought he'd seen everything. But when an orbiting RORSAT picked up the image of a passing flight of UFOs (and was promptly shot down), his unit was dispatched to make retrieval. When the rest of his squad was wiped out by sectoids, and had a contact of his check out the retrieved sattellite data, his career was effectively over due to both his grievous injuries and the MiBs interest in covering up the truth. The only reson they didn't quitely kill him in his hospital bed was probably because he might be useful again someday.

 

When some aging ex-CIA cowboy turned up to make him an offer, he knew that day had come. He spent some time as a field intelligence man for X-INV, when they needed dirty work done, before being bounced onto an active XCOM team on his request.

 

 

Personal Informaton:

Diminutive but well built, he is 5"7 of lean muscle. Depending on which records you look at, he's aged in his mid-to-late forties. Bald, with stern, angular features, and plasma burns down the left side of his face/upper body, along with various other scars from shrapnel and such. A notable scar part way across his throat.

 

He's essentially a good guy to have on your side, a consummate professional....and though he has some good stories and plenty of wisdom for the kids, he isn't too sociable. Pretty cold, distant even. Partly because he's seen a lot of teammates meet a grisly end, and frankly doesn't expect much different when the plasma starts to fly. Partly because of his black-ops past.....he's done a few things that aren't very nice. Don't expect him to be squeamish about having to torture someone. He's a bit grim, this one.

He's both physically and mentally scarred, and is singularly focused on settling his hash with ET.

 

As fitting with his background, he's a good outdoorsman, equally skilled with most weaponry (though while open to new developments, he's a bit of a traditionalist) though is pretty crap with anything psi-related. Having said that, he'd rather eat a bullet than let himself be used against his unit. He'd probably be a good pointman, or something.

 

 

Physical:

Strength: good for melee, but limited carrying capacity

Agility: Excellent

Speed: Average

Stamina: good, though let down by his injuries.

Intelligence: generally good, and well spoken, though don't expect much small talk.

Bravery: unflinching in combat, but he has issues off the pitch. You could say he's approaching "burnt-out".

Psi: Pretty poor. He isn't likely to frag any team-mates, but you'd have a hard time finding out since he hasn't been tested yet, and is a bit phobic about anything Psi.

Controller: um, me I guess, though feel free to run with him. All this background is here for a reason.

Personal Info: Luis is a very smart man his IQ is 123 he scored almost perfect in his Icfes (Colombian SAT) he thought seriously about joining medical school but the kidnapping torture and murder of his older brother Andres by Farc rebels because they confused him for a know paramilitary commander, led him to join the army. He is a quiet, modest soft-spoken man of 174 cm (5.71 ft) and weighs 75 kilos (150 pounds). He has hazel eyes and dark hair, he is neither ugly nor handsome, one could say he is the kind of person one would hardly notice in a crowd he is the example of the normal Joe (for a Latin American of course).

Appearances aside he is a textbook grade A officer, he inspires respect loyalty and admiration from his men, he is described as an aggressive, but with enough patience to wait 6 days in a hole in the middle of the Colombian mountains without coming out or moving much to ambush a guerrilla commander. He is wily, resourceful, utterly ruthless and will stop at nothing to achieve his objectives.

 

He is not in it for the glory or power he is in it because he believes that for humanity to live the lives they deserve some men have to sacrifice their lives for it.

 

He is very agile and fast he is a distance runner but has a surprising sprint. He has been shooting since he was 6 because his father was a gun nut as a child he won 5 national championships, he is rated expert in most NATO issue rifles and the AK 47, AKM, AK 74, Dragonov sniper rifle. Strength Good, Intelligence he is smarter than most of the scientists. Bravery excellent sometimes described as fearless ( he just hides it really well) Psi: High enough to almost never by mind controlled and never panics but not high enough to ever really use a psi amp

Controller: Anything that has human genes (everybody=)
