I was just watching a few episodes of Burn Notice and thought that it might make good RPG. So why not?
First things first; you're a spy. Or at least, you were. Once. You know, before you got "burned". That basically means you're on the governmental watch list and you can't do anything. Your bank accounts have been audited, you have no job history, you're on every No Fly list in existence, and basically, you've got nowhere to go. So, what are you to do? Well, you have a few ways to go. You can go "goody two shoes" and help people with your covert ops skills. You can try to figure out why you were burned. Or finally, you can turn to the criminal underworld for a little extra income. Your choice. You can get a few teammates to help you out every now and again, and of course, people will come asking you for favors as well. They will not always repay you, so it's your job to make sure that the people you help out will be reciprocating your act of kindness. Cash, equipment, labor, whatever. That would be your payment. As you go along, of course you're going to attract some attention. The feds, the criminals, the other spies...all of them are going to hear about you when you start making a name for yourself. But of course, it's not all bad. The more people know about you, the more stuff you'll have access to, and the more people who will want to join your crew. Hey, you might not have cash. You might not have a job. You might not have a place to live. You might not have anyone who's willing to talk to you. But you do have your skills. Deal with it.
Strength Based Skills Martial Arts Training: Martial Arts. Simple enough, innit? Hand to hand combat training. Breaking/Entering: This is the ability to break in and out of secure areas with pure force. Melee Weapons Training: This is the melee weapons skill for you. Hand to hand, like martial arts, except with weapons. Lift/Carry: Picking people up and hauling them around is harder than you think, especially when they're a dead weight. Maybe you should learn how to do it?
Charisma Based Skills Charm: This means you're more charming, and basically means people will like you more and trust you more. Bluffing/Lying: Self explanatory, yeah? Means you're more adept at lying. Intimidation: Means you're better at scaring people out of their skins in more ways than one. Could come in very handy. Convince/Diplomacy: Means you're better at convincing people to, say, not shoot you. Or something like that. Negotiations: Means you're better at negotiating deals.
Agility Based Skills Stealth Training: Quieter, stealthier. They'll never know what hit them. Sprinting: This means you're a better runner, faster and laster longer. Climbing/Jumping: Means you can climb or jump farther, higher, faster. Pickpocketing/Theft: Ah, not exactly legal, but sometimes you've got to nick stuff away, and this means you'll be better at it. Lockpicking: Got to sneak into someone's place? This is your skill.
Endurance Based Skills Resiliency: Means you're more resistant to diseases and other types of physical damage. Willpower: Means you're better at resisting people trying to scare you or control you. Toughness: Means you get right back up after getting beaten. Perseverance: Means that you are tougher mate. Means that you can sustain more damage before you go out cold or something like that.
Intelligence Based Skills Firearms Training: Means you're better with all kinds of guns. Armors Training: Means you're better at handling the body armors, means you're better at taking bullets. Perception: Means you can spot things more easily. Medical Training: Means you can patch folks up, including yourself. Vehicle Training: Means you can drive, repair, and handle all kinds of vehicles, from civilian to...other kinds.
Equipment Hey, well, you gotta start with something, and that something isn't going to be nothing. You're a spy, even you have to get some good stuff. Take your pick.
Guns A) USAS-12 Shotgun. B) PSG1 Sniper Rifle. C) AK-47 Assault Rifle. D) Pick your own, but nothing too fancy.
If I missed anything, let me know. Good luck, and get cracking.

investigate the area to see if there's any clues to who killed him.
