Colonise, Yakinize (Don't ask), Agress and Normalize- or CYAN for short. The brave men and women who explore the wide new frontier and make it safe for the Memetian alliance. Well trained, well supplied, well fit for the rigors of space pioneering. As a CYAN officer, you will undergo many trials with your squad that would probably make for a good video game that doesn't involve Russians, Iraq or useless weaponry. Of course, one does not just walk into the door and say they want into the last frontier. This is an Elite unit, after all...
This will likely involve a more complex sheet than I use in say, CtO or Memetia's First Plotline. Don't worry, I will give an example BEFORE I ask you to fill a sheet out.
RECRUITMENT SHEET Essentially, this is what every CYAN operative has to fill out to see if they qualify, as well as to have a record.
NAME: Operative's Name. RACE: The race of our creature. Base types shown below... SUB-RACE: If applicable. QUALIFICATIONS: AKA perks. What makes you fit to be a polymathic Special Force as opposed to a common soldier. BIO: A short description of you(r character).
Races: Cheezburgian: Cat People! Yes, they are the race of cats where their main similarities to humans are bipedality and intelligence! While they make for good hunters, they aren't much for peaceful negotiations when they don't like someone.
Youtubian: Cyborgs. Yes, people who modify themselves with robotic and prosthetic attachments in the same way as humans get tattoos. While their strength and endurance makes them good Heavy Units and they tend to be technical geniuses, the masses of parts attached to them tend to make EVERYONE creeped out.
Alternatians: After the Annexation of Chania, the Trollix used this as an umbrella term for both. The term covers:
Trollix: Much like the Cheezburgians, except with more people they like to annoy and replace "Cat" with "Dragon".
Dragons: Thanks to the efforts of Champione Demyx (see Memetia Chronicles part 2), Dragons have come out of isolation and have turned out to be much like Japan.
Chanians: It turns out the only real thing separating them from Trollix was that they were twice as big and half as clever.
Nonidentians: An umbrella term used to describe the races that have recently turned out to have been sentient, but haven't been made known. AKA the custom slot.
OPERATIVE SHEET: Will be filled out after training.
NAME: See above CLASS: The letter of CYAN you fit into the best. You will still use the other letters, but you do best with the chosen letter. UNIT: The unit you currently work in. Units are a combination of NPCs and players you will have to work with. RANK: Higher rank means more privileges. SPECIALTY: The combination of skills and weapons you can use. WEIGHT: The best armors and weapons also tend to be the heaviest.
ACTIVE SHEET: Sheet you can choose to re-post if you don't want to do mass highlighting.
Health: Operative's health. Run out, and you will either die or be evac'd. Armor: how much more your armor can take before you start losing health. Main Weapon/Ammo: The current main weapon active and how much ammo you have for it. Sub Weapon/Ammo: Like the main, except for smaller weapons. Active Skill: Which skill you have for quick-use.
Right now, we only need teh Recruit sheet. So...
