Name: Gunner
Age: 4
Gender: Male
Affiliation: N/A
Avatar: Gunner(Is capable of "projecting" a digital copy of himself while also maintaining control of his VI frame)
Appearance: link
Personality: Gunner is an incredibly cold and uncaring avatar, having no reservations about being what is basically a hired murderer, as long as the target meets his "moral guidelines" and he is paid for the job, he will end his target's life without a hint of remorse or pity.
However, this cold and detached attitude is actually a mask that he wears, in reality his is a very damaged individual, his experiences as a test subject and the events that led to him escaping from military control having given him an incredibly warped, and sometimes inconsistent, worldview.
At the core of Gunner's mindset is the concept of the Übermensch, which is German for "Superman" or "Above-Man". However, it is not the superiority of the Übermensch that appeals to him, it is the concept of an Übermensch being a "true individual" beholden to no one but themselves. This mindset is twisted by his damaged mind however, He views himself as someone who could be one of these super beings, but is being held back by his past, and the fact that the man who ordered his creation still lives.
As a result, he has an obsession with murdering this man, hoping that his death with make him an ultimate being, one above law, god...and his own damaged psyche.
History: Gunner was not originally a hired gun, in fact, he was meant to usher in a new age of warfare.
Gunner entered the world as an incredibly advanced prototype VI frame, meant to be used in lieu of human soldiers. As a result, he was given an incredibly advanced personality program that would allow him to make tactical decisions in an ever changing battlefield.
Gunner was made to be the best, and during every field test, every virtual simulation, he was. His advanced frame, potent weaponry, and the flexibility of his programming allowed him to fight or think his way out of any situation, but that all changed during one final test, meant to test his ability to react to paradoxes.
Gunner was pitted against an enemy squad with 5 enemy troops and 5 allied soldiers in a simple non-lethal firing exercise. His IFF programming was activated, and the test commenced. He finished off the enemy troops easily...and then his allies began to fire at him. Gunner's programming conflicted with his mission parameters, his emotional and cognitive programming was flexible, but not flexible enough to keep the paradox from damaging his psyche.
Gunner snapped, he killed the five soldiers with his bare hands, attacked his handlers, and stole a large cache of lethal ammunition before vanishing off the face of the Earth. When the military located his tracking beacon and tried to bring him in for repairs, they were instead met with a removed beacon...as well as his scuttling charges.
The resulting blast maimed three soldiers, and Gunner was never able to be located again, and for the next 4 years he has been sighted on and off as a bounty hunter/hitman. As of late, it seems that he has been closely working with the Mega-corporations, more than likely in an attempt to upgrade and resupply himself.
Special Equipment: Prototype VI Frame: Gunner's "body" is actually an advanced combat frame designed for military use. The frame's skeleton is made out of a Coltan-Titanium Alloy, which provides it with not only unparalleled strength, but a very high resistance to high temperatures, to the point that plasma torches, which are capable of melting through Carbon nanotube material, do nothing but leave carbon scoring on the alloy.
Layered over the skeleton are the frames "muscles", which are a mixture of cutting edge hydraulics and CNT muscle fiber, with the hydraulic "muscle" being used for pure strength, while the CNT is used for more precise tasks. A full strength punch from Gunner is capable of crushing a man's sternum and sending the victim flying backward by about five feet.
Finishing off the frame's construction is a thick molded shell of Coltan-Titanium armor, which renders Gunner immune to conventional ammunition. However, the armor is still vulnerable to anti-synthetic ammunition and high-frequency blades.
Concealed Light Machine Gun: This is Gunner's main weapon, a miniature tri-barreled rotary gun that fires approximately 500 round per minute. The gun is concealed within Gunner's right arm, collapsing down and storing itself snugly within the space between Gunners Elbow and wrist.
The gun itself has a multitude of recoil compensation and muzzle climb elimination enhancements, from muzzle breaks to hydraulic shocks that absorb most of the gun's blowback. The gun fires 7.62mm tungsten cored rounds, similar to most modern military rifles, and is fed from a belt that snakes up through Gunner's arm and into his torso, which contains a shielded ammunition storage unit that holds a total of 2500 rounds when full. (any use of this gun with have a running ammo tally, which will be added after each time the gun is used.)
Concealed 8-gauge Shotgun: Within Gunner's left arm is a collapsible 8-gauge shotgun. The gun is unique in it's appearance, with the shotgun possessing a floating barrel that slides back with each shot, this action re-cocks the gun, allowing for a decent rate of fire despite it firing large slugs.
The shotgun is fed from an internal magazine that holds 10 caseless shotgun rounds, with three spare reloads being provided from an internal ammo supply situated inside of Gunners upper chest and linked to the gun via an automated belt contained within his left arm.
due to the gun's slower rate of fire, it can only be shot three times per post.
Shoulder Mounted Cannon: This is gunners most damaging weapon, and as a result, it fires the slowest. The cannon is a specially made 20mm rail-gun, mounted on Gunner's right shoulder on a pivoting arm that can be locked in place to aid in firing stability. The cannon fires 20mm slugs that can punch through a foot of concrete, and the damage done to human flesh is catastrophic, more often than not a person struck in the chest is blown in half due to sheer kinetic force.
This is not a common occurrence however, because of the price of the rounds, as well as the fact that the cannon is meant as an anti-synthetic weapon, Gunner usually reserves this weapon for cyborgs and heavily armored drones.
The cannon requires a charge time of one post to fire, and it takes two posts before it can be charged again.
