Escape from Osmia-Mission Complete

[GamerKale]

Hello hello, thanks for looking. This is my first rp that I'm going to try to run on this forum. I think everyone knows the usual rules, those of course apply. And if anything doesn't make sense shoot me a message.
Ok, so here's the deal with this rp. The whole thing is heavily influenced by Halo, which was heavily influenced by other stuff, y'all are going to basically be Spartans, same origin story y'all got kidnapped at a young age and were recruited into this super duper secret military program that will make you into what are known as the Knights, elite special forces kind of deal just like the spartans. There aren't any stand alone power armors operational yet and no shields either. But there is faster than light space travel and the human race is at war with itself. The United Systems of Planets is the government that y'all have been built to serve and there is a large Separatist faction.

You are all currently within the age range of 16-20 and are part of the Squires, Knights still in training but have gone through physical augmentation already. You have been in training since you were 5-6 and got drafted into the Pages, Knights in training before physical augmentation. There has been one graduating class of Knights before y'all. And your class is made up of about 30 or so Squires which are further divided up into squads. The youngest batch of recruits only consists of about a dozen this go through.

The training facility is based on a planet called Osmia that has a gravity 2-3 times Earth norm and the atmosphere is full of heavy toxic gases. A normal human would die within 20 seconds of breathing the gas in, but y'all are trained in a low oxygen environment and that combined with your augmentations means that, if necessary, you can survive being out there for about a minute before you have to get back indoors.
In addition to the pages and squires there are normal marines in the facility for both security and to train y'all.

Other important details. I am going to be taking the role of game master, meaning y'all say what you wanna do and I tell you the results. I'll wait till everyone of you has posted between my posts, or until 24 hours have passed since the last person posted, exceptions will be made if there is a discussion between characters. What me being the gm means is I won't tell y'all how to resolve a situation with a main pc that I'm controlling, but I will take control of npcs sometimes and suggest a course of action, that won't always be the best course so I encourage creative solutions. Also, if you don't say you do something, like grab a kevlar vest or take cover, you don't have it and you may get injured because of that.
Character Notes: Y'all are all part of Black squad meaning you all know each other very well, trust each other, at least as far as the battlefield, and work well together. Most of the other squads are 4 man cells, but y'alls is probably an exception. You have been being trained to deal with the growing terrorist factions that are springing up.

We'll be starting out with a normal day on Osmia. If you notice that I've forgotten any glaring details or have any questions please either post them or shoot me a message. If you want to make a special request for your character then go right ahead as well.

Excellent quirks both of you, and thanks for joining. Should probably mention that the facility on Osmia has modules for various scenarios such as desert or forest fighting and whatnot, the only time zero-g training can take place is when a ship is in orbit, which there usually isn't one, but when there is y'all go through it.

I'll try to get this ball rolling either Sunday or Monday, if that works for the majority. If anybody feels that they won't be able to join until after that shoot me a message and we can work out how your character will be introduced.

[GamerKale]

((My deepest apologies, Haseo and Helba. I did not anticipate having to entertain guests all day. But let the games begin, if anybody else wishes to join in at a later stage shoot me a message. Lotis is squad leader. And all of the teams with color names are in y'all's age group. The ones named after constellations are Pages the youngest age group. The age group in the middle is receiving physical augmentation today and will be unable to continue training until they have recovered. No major events will likely occur until fighting breaks out during the desert combat training so feel free to dictate events and npcs as you wish until that time.))

At 0555, exactly, you awake to the "soothing" voice of Drill Sergeant Stone. "Good morning Squires, welcome to another day on Osmia." He places a stack of folders containing today's schedule on the table by the door. The titanium plating covering the windows slides back letting in the natural orange lighting as everybody gets dressed. Osmia's sun was already racing towards the horizon, the solar days on Osmia are only 6 hours and 37 minutes long due to it's rapid rotation.

Jack, white squad's leader, hops to his feet and begins distributing the folders to each squad's leader, black team receives their's last. The two of members of blue squad high five each other after reviewing their schedule. "See you on the Leviathon." Said Ricca, white squad's sniper, to Lotis as she, Jack, James, and Louis hurried out to their first station. You note that Yellow squad never came back to their bunks last night.

[Haseo{Terror of Death}]

((It's fine, I just have a question, The Scenario, is it for the training module, or like, our whole day?))

Lance looked out of his window, these few sunlight hours are always the best part of the day. He was quickly dressed and waited for the other members to leave. Before leaving his quarters he checked a small chest tucked quietly in the corner of his trunk. "What's wrong with me..." he pulled out a jar, filled halfway with teeth. These teeth had been cleaned off, and were all a pearly white, Lance had spent much personal time scrubbing them clean, hopefully, to no one's attention. "Time to go!" He walked out of his quarters, and closed the door quietly.

((I fixed it, I figured it might be like that so I left it pretty close so I could easily edit it))

[GamerKale]

((Just for the training module beginning at 2100. Also, side note the barracks y'all usually sleep in doesn't have much in the way of personal space, no individual rooms just about 30-40 beds and a trunk at the foot of each bed.))

[Helbaworshipper]

Lotis looked at the schedule, picking up a fake Daisy and placing it in her hair. When she found a fake flower she would clean it as much as she could on her own. She personally liked wearing a flower with a bigger effect, but the daisy wasn't a bad choice. Her collection was rather large, but she never prioritized them over the mission. The biggest thing seemed to be the mission to secure a fortress. Still, Yellow team was missing. It was hard to ignore the absence that they created. She nodded at Ricca's comment, moving to exit where she slept with many other squires. She began to head towards the Leviathan, fingering the cloth of the fake flower a few times.

(I hope I did alright.)

[GamerKale]

((Your post was fine. I think I posted something confusing. I get a bit scatterbrained when dming sometimes, I really need to work on that. Ricca's comment was not meant for the immediate future, but rather for the afternoon. I'll just say that your schedule got mixed up with somebody else's. And put y'all in a definitive time frame. Why don't y'all interact with Gemini a little.))
Sarah, from Green Squad, ran up behind Lotis. "There you are. Sorry, I think Jack mixed our schedules up, maybe he didn't want to go against you in EVA or something. Anyways, you should hurry off to the firing range, I think Gemini squad went over there a little early. Plus if you open the shades you should get a great view of the meteor shower in a few minutes. Gotta run, good luck tonight." With that Sarah sprinted back off down the hall.

Li, a young short dark haired Asian boy from Gemini Squad walked up behind Lance while he was shining one of his teeth during PT. "Hey, B-8, could you tell me what a tooth fairy is? C-22, uh Joseph from Canis squad, said she was someone who came in the middle of the night to steal your teeth right out of your mouth, but that seems a bit strange to me."

Mission Clock: 0740
Event: The incoming asteroid is being bombarded and destroyed, giving everybody a very pretty light show in the sky to look at. The meteor shower will continue until about 0830.
Locations of Gemini Squad members. G-2: Alex, is at the firing range cleaning his rifle. G-3: Spark, is hanging out on the observation deck with a few of the other girls her age during PT and watching the meteor shower. G-7: Michael, is working on a model bolt fighter on the observation deck, waiting to remind Spark of when and where they need to be at 0800. And G-10: Li, is of course bothering Lance with a question about the tooth fairy.

[Haseo{Terror of Death}]

Lance stared at Li, speechless. "Um....ahem...." Lance wiped his face, and covers his mouth with his palm, trying hard not to make a mistake. "T-the tooth fairy, huh?" Lance bit his tongue and wiped his face again. "The tooth fairy is a myth, s-she's not really real." He stood up and reached into his pocket. "The tooth fairy was known to take your teeth, after they'd fallen out, and pay you for them." He took out some money and gave it to Li. "I'll pretend to be the tooth fairy, just let me get your tooth."

[Helbaworshipper]

Lotis nodded, making her way towards the range without any delays. Usually she was quiet and gentle around the base, and much more vocal on missions. It made it easier when you needed someone's attention. At the range she saw one of the sniper rifles that she practiced with daily. It was a rather old model, seeing as she found it easier to change their fire than the new models. G-2 was already there, cleaning his own rifle. She remembered the name Alex was associated with him, but not much else. His skills were still in need of improvement, but so were hers.

Loading the sniper rifle with a few blanks, she raised the weapon to her upper body and focused. The target was a good distance away for her to practice on. She began to fire rapidly, hitting the same spot with a slight distance between the second and third shot. She still needed to work on that. She made sure the shots were not delayed by checking the sniper rifle over again.

[GamerKale]

"Oh, so she doesn't exist. Kind of like us, now." He said this absentmindedly as he fished out a couple of teeth from the pocket of his fatigues and handed them to Lance. He gave the older boy a smile revealing his two top front teeth were missing. "So, we're due at the range pretty soon, right? Want to race?" Although not quite as fast as most of the Squires, like Lance, Li was notoriously quick on his feet.

Alex watched in silence until Lotis had finished her magazine and then he emulated her, although his groupings were still pretty poor by comparison, but he was about as good as Lotis had been at his age. Which was only right considering he had the same job as her for his squad. G-2 looked up at Lotis, seeking some response. It was hard to tell if it was approval he wanted, or a suggestion for improvement, or if he just wanted her to take another round of shooting.

[Helbaworshipper]

Lotis placed her sniper rifle down gently so it wouldn't be harmed by anything on the floor. Approaching Alex, she examined his own sniper rifle for a few moments. It seemed to be in working order, it was just a little shaky in the way it was held. Her eyes focused on Alex's, gently raising his rifle up more. When she managed to do that, she helped him solidify the hold he had. "Fire again." She spoke, her attention completely on him now.

[GamerKale]

Alex fired again at Lotis' order. His shots were much improved thanks to her guidance. Sgt. Stone walked in and stood at the rear of the room in silent observance. It wasn't unusual for him to perform a surprise inspection of a squad's teaching ability like this. Using the Squires in this way eased up the requirements for the men to be everywhere at once, plus it was a good learning experience for them too. After all, in addition to being the most elite special operations units in existence the Squires were also expected to one day lead men and command respect, and he had to make sure the Squires weren't being too easy in the instruction of the Pages.

Mission Clock: 0750

[Helbaworshipper]

Lotis observed the improvement in his firing skills. She nodded with a slight smile on her face. Alex had improved over the few times she had instructed him. Now that Alex had a hold, she could fire another round to see how he did in a team effort. There were certain times where more than one sniper were necessary on a mission. She helped pull a target so that both Alex and herself could fire. "How much distance do you think you can handle?" She asked, keeping a steady gaze while holding her sniper rifle in a resting position. The rest of the squad should be here soon, or so she hoped.

[Haseo{Terror of Death}]

Lance looked in his hand to find more than one tooth, "T-Thanks kid." He smiled faintly at the child, and ignored most of what he said, until a race was mentioned. "Sure kid, I'll race ya." He looked at one of the many clocks that had been placed practically everywhere. "Shoot! Wehave less than 10 minutes, let's hurry!." He patted the kid's back and knelt down to a starting position, "On three...One! Two! Three!"

[GamerKale]

"How much can you?" He asked in response. It wasn't necessarily that he could handle as long a shot as Lotis, but that didn't mean he wouldn't at least try. Sgt. Stone smiled, on the inside, the boy was ambitious, good.

Li pumped his legs as hard and fast as he could and was doing fairly well until a vibration shook the facility, nearly knocking him over. It didn't help that he was starting to run out of breath. Lance and Li passed Michael and Spark, who were both jogging to the room but seeing their instructor in a dead run suddenly gave them the urge to step it up and avoid being late. When they finally crossed the threshold and saw Sgt. Stone standing next to the doorway their hearts sank. Li arrived seconds after Lance, a new personal best, not that that made him much happier. The pages began congregating near the wall, asides from snipers every other gun was kept in storage lockers. There was one in this room and Black Squad had a teaching passcode that would open it from 0800-0900. It wasn't so much to keep anybody from accidentaly making holes in the facility, the walls, especially the exterior walls, shouldn't fall just to the relatively low caliber available, but for the safety of the other squires and pages.

Mission Clock: 0758

[Haseo{Terror of Death}]

Lance was shook up by the vibration, but his rebound keyed in his victory, he looked behind him to see, not only Li, but two other Pages as well, both from Gemini, "Good job kid. Those tremors get you don't they?" Lance patted his hand on Li's back, afterwards heading towards his own squad, "Kid almost got me" Lance whispered under his breath, a bit embarrassed. 'If it wasn't for that tremor he might have beaten me...I'll need to train more during PT...', Lance open his palm slowly, checking that the teeth were still there, 'Then again, I was a bit distracted...' Lance stretched out his fingers, which felt constricted by the gloves, and put the teeth in his pocket. "B-39, sorry I'm late; I was back by the personal quarters."

[Helbaworshipper]

Lotis seemed to smile at Alex's comment. Before she could answer, B-8 came in later than he should have come in. "Apologizing is not necessary. Instruct if you have time to think of excuses." She spoke in a slightly sharp tone. She turned her attention back to Alex after she saw B-8 was actually starting instruction. She chose a long enough target so that she could have a challenge, but not have too much challenge given to G-2. She raised her sniper rifle up, aiming for the center of the body. Alex would have to fire first.

[Jxcrust]

Name: Jun B-16
Age: 20
Role: Plasma Electronic Beam Lazer Arms Specialist (P.E.B.L.A.S.)
Quirk: Always wears headphones, if not on his ears then around his neck.
Bio: Jun's father had left his mother before he was born and his mother died when he was very young. He showed above average skills after the death of his mother and they were quickly noticed by the workers at the orphenage as well as the government. He was enrolled in the Pages and quickly made his way to the Squires as a member of Blue Squad. Shortly after becoming a Squire, when they test to see the Squires special role, it was shown that he was an expert at energy weapons and reverse engineering allien energy weapons for use of his fellow humans. He was then put in the P.E.B.L.A.S for his expertese in energy weaponry and he refuses to fight with any other technologies. However, he doesn't see as much fight as most marines becasue he is an engineer, he is still a warrior first.
Appearance:

Jun was busy in the Energy Weaponry Engineering Room retrofiting new weapons for the millitary and made some training prototype versions for the Pages and Squiers. For the pages he had Proton Pistlols that had been modified for training. For training however the weapons were modified that they would not fire live protons inside but would still send strong electrical shocks to the target. The pistols were powered by light waves, so as long as there was light they wouldn't run out of amo in training or in the field. For the Squires he Tri-Beam Rifles, "Tri" becasue they had three actions. Like the proton pistols they were powered by light waves but couldn't be rapidly overused or they would overheat for thirty seconds before use and fired deadly photon waves which can be used in longrange sniping or a mid range attack. The second feature was for close quaters combat and was electric baanett blade mande of concentrated protons that would slice through even the thickest armor. The third feature was one that Jun didn't care for but his officers insisted on, the weapon also could be used to fire regular none energy ammuniton. However, Jun had made himself a custom Tri-Beam Rifle with a whole nother third feature...
