[Koishi]

Maybe a little. You should've at least shown the mega ring though. In the games, the trainers sort of taps the stone on the ring to activate the evolution.

[Kristia]

I know and was going to write that, then again, they Nera is on a dream world so it could be done just by thinking

[Koishi]

Touche on that one.

@ TRXD

Ack I wasn't expecting ya to have him go and drink it yet.
Just a heads up, that was a version of the Toxin ACO uses that suppresses abilities. Emphasis on suppress, so he will still have it and thus he'll be alive, but he can't discharge it like before. He would be able to pick up a gun for example.

[Luna Pixu]

@Cucoo
Well, what else was I supposed to do? ACO would have forced him to drink it anyway.

[Cucoo5]

true...

ok I was actually expecting something more but it's fine, I can work with this.

[Luna Pixu]

@Cucoo
May I ask, what were you rather expecting? (If it doesn't spoil anything)

[Cucoo5]

I was expecting more questions on Cole's part, that's all.

Name: ACO Division: PALADIN



Description: ACO PALADIN Division is much more militarized than their covert counterpart. Unlike WRAITH, PALADIN has an assortment of heavy weapons, bombs, missiles, and vehicles at their disposal, some of them not even of this world. Aver since they have gained the technology to recreate a miniature version of "The Horizon Incident", they have been importing various weapons, tools, and suits of power armor.



Technology: PALADIN's lower ranks have real-world grade equipment, but their higher ranked personnel and special soldiers are equipped with special weapons and power armor from various games. During their time combating the Characters, they realized that there are some Characters that could not be neutralized by conventional means, so instead of completely rejecting Characters and killing them on the spot, some Characters with unique and potentially useful abilities are captured for research. Once there, the Characters are usually experimented on and have their abilities either stripped away or replicated, then disposed of. One of their elite divisions are then given these enhancements, along with a bomb implanted into their body, to prevent the treason or desertion of these super-soldiers. Some of their super-soldiers have gained mental instability from the augmentation procedures, but the ones that are still capable of following orders are still put into service.

When their weapons, armor, and super-soldiers aren't enough, they resort to using energy nullification fields, magic suppression devices and runes, EMPs, and signal disrupters to temporarily remove or reduce most Characters' abilities within the devices' range. They have also researched various Characters and have learned to use various types of magic and artificial magic against some.



Morals/Ideology: PALADIN sees Characters as a plague on Humanity and as such, it must be eliminated by any means necessary. They believe that Characters are not real people, just lines of code made into flesh, programs. As such, Humans are free to do as they wish to them. They are programs with impressive AI, but nothing more. If their enemy is too strong to fight in a head on battle, they will resort to other means to take a particularly troublesome Character down. They are not above blackmail, taking hostages, and other means if it means that another Character will be taken off the streets. When it comes to researching and experimentation on Characters, they follow the same ideology. They are not real people, so they are treated as such. They are lines of fleshy code to be decompiled. Their research will aid in the creation of highly experimental, and sometimes mentally unstable super-soldiers.

[Cucoo5]

Ok I linked your description in the OP
I still have my initial general description linked to ACO and yours is linked to PALADIN

Also another concept was to have PALADIN resort to brainwashing characters to serve them

[S121]

@Cucoo

I was thinking of that, but I didn't know whether or not that was WRAITH's thing.

[Cucoo5]

@ S121

Oh no, that's Paladin.

Wraith will just follow you without knowing...

...like who is that mysterious man prowling around Rena and Ara's apartment? That sort of thing.
They tag and track...

[NeoFox]

Here is my application for Prometheus.

NPC Character of Choice: Prometheus

Game of Origin: Mega Man ZX

Power: Despite the fact that Prometheus is a Mega Man who is not directly based on any character within the Mega Man canon, he exhibits traits of two X Guardians: like Fefnir, he possesses absolute control over the fire element, and demonstrates this through long range attacks such as creating flaming skulls to fire blasts of purple flames through them with certain consistence, creating fire pillars which move around the screen, and creating flaming swords which travel around the walls and the floor; and like Phantom, he possesses a high degree of speed and stealth, which he incorporates into his style of fighting by teleporting relatively often, which involves dash-slashing in a fashion similar to Phantom, albeit with a scythe rather than a blade. In addition, Prometheus also displays a few traits of Zero, being proficient with his scythe (which resembles an elongated Z Saber/ZX Saber handle, the blade itself coming from the side of the "hilt" rather than the top) and having a blue, triangular "cape" coming from the back of his helmet that resembles a more rigid version of Giro's long hair. Thus he could be considered a "mixed" Mega Man, with Pandora having opposite features in common with the other two guardians (whose elements are ice and electricity) and being a long-ranged fighter, making the pair effective and deadly compliments in battle. He is an absolute beast in a 1v1 battle, but in a tag team fight with his sister Pandora is where he truly shines.

Weapons: His energy scythe as seen below.

Weaknesses: He is mentally unstable, and is sadistic. He may not hold back in a fight, but that doesn't mean he won't fight with cheap tactics. If he finds someone that intrigues him (like say someone strong enough) he will want to do nothing but fight that person to the death. He can also be a bit persistent, and usually does not take orders from his superiors often. Usually though he will follow orders, but only if he can choose how he goes through with them. Other than that he is a tough opponent, but can be dealt with. He's also not immune to EMP's unlike his sister Pandora.

Appearance: He stands at 5ft 9. Relatively short, but not weak. Approach with caution.

Personality: Always with a sadistic expression on his face, Prometheus's figure exudes evil; he shows absolutely no mercy in battle, unless he is dealing with somebody of interest to the Game of Destiny (a major event in the Mega Man ZX series which takes place after the Zero series, which takes place after the X series.) He tends to mock his opponents and make snide remarks when confronted. Prometheus is an arrogant fighter who enjoys nothing more than senseless killing and a good battle (ironically, when Ashe/Grey defeats him and his sister, he hints that his having to do senseless fighting was one of the reasons as to why he and his sister wanted to betray and kill Albert in the first place.). He also seems to hold a grudge against Vent/Aile and refers to him/her as a pawn in his game. His personality has yet to be further explored, and neither has his connection to Ashe. As the 'voice of Model W', he seems to have inherited Dr. Weil's insanity and nihilism. He's known to usually do whatever he wants, no matter his orders. Despite that he is one of the strongest Generals in the Maverick Rebellion.

Morality: Chaotic Evil.

Biography:
Pre-ZX
Prometheus is the first of two sibling Reploids created by Master Albert, identified as DAN-001, as part of his plan to awaken Biometal Model W and become the ultimate Mega Man. Initially made as regular Reploid children, Prometheus and his younger sister Pandora were constantly tortured through perpetual confinement, eventually Prometheus and his sister managed to temporarily escape Albert's control, until the day Master Albert permanently merged the two with fragments of Model W and commanded them to match Albert's Chosen Ones with Biometals to leaves him no choice but to participate in the Game of Destiny in order to seek out and confirm the strongest Mega Man there is. Bound to Albert by a limited lifespan, Prometheus followed Albert's orders for centuries in exchange for the possibility of returning to his capsule to reset his life cycle at regular intervals. Resentful of their suffering at Albert's hand, Prometheus and Pandora patiently awaited the chance to exact revenge on their creator.

Mega Man ZX

After Serpent had excavated the Biometals Model H, Model F, Model L and Model P prior to the games events, Prometheus and Pandora approached Serpent. Several company workers mentioned that after their meeting, both Serpent and Slither Inc. changed their way of business. After Serpent strikes down Girouette in Area D, Vent/Aile attempt to shoot Serpent down in anger but their charged shots are easily deflected by Prometheus and leaves, mocking Model X and Z as mere legends while Pandora steals the passwords to the Model W core from Model X and Model Z under Serpent's orders. The three leave both Girouette and the protagonist for dead, while they resume their efforts to awaken Model W.
After four Pseudoroids are defeated, Prometheus and Pandora are sent by Serpent on board a Slither Inc. fleet with orders to eliminate the Guardians. Although the two manage to reach the reactor of the Guardian HQ, they meet opposition from Vent/Aile, who not only survived but also obtained Model Z and performed a Double Megamerge, becoming the more powerful Mega Man Model ZX. After engaging the Mega Man ZX in one-on-one combat, Prometheus decides to retreat with Pandora, although he claims to be sparing the Chosen One's life.

Prometheus is seen one last time with Pandora heading a Maverick attack on Area O in an effort to gather the Cyber-elves to feed the recovered Model W core. This time, he and Pandora join forces against Vent/Aile, but even the two are unable to defeat Mega Man ZX. It is revealed, however, that Prometheus and Pandora were manipulating Serpent from the beginning, taking advantage of Serpent's weak will. The two retreat again, remaining absent during the final battle against Serpent,[3] although not before alluding to they're all being pieces of "his" game.

Mega Man ZX Advent
"He said Mega Men are the natural evolution of man!? Don't make me laugh! What an epic sham!"
—Prometheus to Grey/Ashe

Years after Serpent's fall, Prometheus appears in an attack against a Raider airship, seeking the Biometal Model A recently discovered inside ruins. However, he is confronted by Ashe and the Hunters. Although Prometheus easily dispatches the group, the Hunter's Guild manages to retrieve the Biometal.
Prometheus joins Pandora and soon makes another attempt at retaking the Biometal by attacking the train transporting the container to Legion. He later expresses annoyance at Ashe being the one guarding Model A (if the player is playing as Grey, Prometheus will instead chastize Pandora for failing to kill him). This second attack is thwarted by the protagonist (either Ashe again or Grey), who uses the Biometal to transform into the Mega Man Model A. In light of this development, Prometheus reconsiders his mission and instead enlists the new Mega Man into the Game of Destiny before leaving with Pandora.

After Master Albert is uncovered as the creator of Model W, Prometheus is one of the Mega Men sent to retrieve the scattered Model Ws. He is found retrieving one fragment in the Control Center, and again alongside Pandora in the Waterfall Ruins, after the two destroyed the local computer (which had been used to erase information about the protagonist from Legion) to prevent the Mega Man Model A from accessing the data.

When the Mega Man Model A finally finds Albert in his hideout, Prometheus and Pandora take advantage of this unexpected development and the Grim Reaper slays Albert himself, revealing the duo's hate and desire for revenge. Determined to destroy everything that Albert ever made (including themselves, as indicated by his use of "Go out with a bang"), Prometheus and Pandora fight the Mega Man Model A, but this leads to the two falling prey to Albert's true plan: the data accumulated by centuries of hatred is completely absorbed by the surrounding Model Ws, awakening all the fragments. Albert himself reappears in a new body called "DAN-000", revealing that the one slain by Prometheus was a decoy and the betrayal was expected as the final step of his plan. As the Model Ws merge to create Ouroboros, the protagonist grudgingly escapes the collapsing structure, leaving the unconscious Prometheus and Pandora behind to survive and stop Albert at a later time.

Although Albert is eventually defeated, the situation of Prometheus and Pandora remains unknown. They are highly speculated to have survived the encounter, however considering their short experation dates, they may have not survived long assuming they couldn't wake up in time to restore their energies.

Since then he had been resurrected by the leader of the Maverick Rebellion. A small, secretive underground rebellion of rogue game characters. He is now one of the general's, and is leading an attack on Detroit.

Traumas: Being tortured by Albert when he was a Reploid Child, and forcibly being turned into a Mega Man for the Game of Destiny along with his sister.

Name: Adamsk 'ADAM' 'Ocelot'

Game of Origin: Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater

Appearance:



Morality: True Neutral

Personality: A cunning operative and an expert marksman, Ocelot was well-known for his prowess in the battlefield as well as his deceitful nature and his penchant for torture. In his younger years, Ocelot originally did not approve of Colonel Volgin's methods of torture during his days as a GRU Major. However, after witnessing Volgin torture Big Boss, he grew to enjoy it and developed a fondness for it; in which he declared that it was "the ultimate form of expression". Due to this experience, in the future he would go on to torture many individuals in a similar manner throughout his career as an operative; often with a preference for the application of electrical shocks. Despite being a renowned sadist, he dismissed the word "torture" in reference to his interrogation techniques. Ocelot was also highly intelligent and a fast learner, learning CQC techniques upon observation and using them to fight Big Boss to a stalemate. In addition, he was apparently also one of the few Groznyj Grad personnel to be allowed access to the Groznyj Grad weapon's lab's west wing in spite of his being below Colonel-class.

Owing to his deceitful nature, he also was shown to be treacherous when it suited his goals, evidenced where he betrayed Sergei Gurlukovich and Solidus Snake in the Tanker and Big Shell Incidents, respectively. When he was younger, Ocelot pretended to be very patriotic to Russia, likely as a means to further seal his identity as a triple agent, always speaking up in defiance of Volgin's reckless killing of his fellow countrymen. However, he seemed to enjoy killing the KGB soldiers guarding Sokolov when he first confronted Big Boss, although he claimed otherwise that, even with his affiliation to GRU, the ordeal left him uneasy.

In addition, his views about the mission to kill The Boss apparently changed. In the aftermath of Operation Snake Eater, while calling the CIA Director regarding the success in The Boss's mission, he seemed satisfied. However, when he next met the Director in late 1970, he declared that he would "take back what [the DCI] stole from [him and his benefactor]" and that "he'll carry the spirit of the true patriot" in reference to The Boss shortly before killing him.

While Ocelot seemingly remained loyal to the Patriots since their founding in 1971, his eventual transformation into Liquid Ocelot and the reason behind his assuming of such a role dictated otherwise. Ocelot's loyalties have always been questioned, although EVA stated that his loyalties belonged to Big Boss, treating him as a teacher/mentor as well as a friendly rival, and perhaps even a father figure. Many of his battle tactics (using a Single Action Army and learning CQC) were adopted from Big Boss's advice and observation of him. This is also the reason he joined FOXHOUND; as he had wanted to join the same organization that Big Boss had founded. Due to his knowledge of Liquid Snake being a clone of Big Boss and his willingness to serve under one of Big Boss's sons, Ocelot specifically joined in Liquid's unit, although this reason was unknown to Liquid himself. Even though they had identical motivations, the exact reason as to why Ocelot intentionally adapted the "Liquid" persona was because he thought that Liquid Snake was the only person who could achieve his goal of true anarchy. He and Liquid believed that by creating a world of chaos (similar to Outer Heaven), everyone would know "the fullness of life," and therefore Liquid's Insurrection would be necessary in order to destroy the Patriots AI, which would obviously undermine this plan. He likened his dream to the "Wild West," referencing his affinity to Spaghetti Westerns. When talking about it later, Big Boss mused that "cats do love to play as snakes."

Liquid Snake suspected that part of the reason Ocelot liked revolvers was due to his sadistic nature: the ammunition's slow velocity allows it to be imbedded in the body, which requires a long time for the body to heal, if the resulting wound could even heal at all. Ocelot also enjoyed the thrill of reloading his Single Action Army in the middle of battle, despite the inherent dangers of doing so. By 2014, Ocelot had discarded the use of his signature revolver, due to the "Liquid" persona. During the 1960s, Ocelot had a habit of using signature hand gestures as a sign of respect or acknowledgement towards others. While the frequency of his use of said hand gestures would dwindle over the years, he would use them again in 2014 to signify his respect towards Solid Snake during their fistfight atop Outer Haven, as well as during his final moments.

Unlike most who either knew about the Patriots or were members of the organization, he did not utilize nanomachines that censored "Patriot" with the phrase "La-Li-Lu-Le-Lo." Although Ocelot lost only his right hand to Gray Fox, he later had his entire arm replaced. In 2009, Ocelot took a hypodermic injection to supposedly prevent Liquid Snake's arm from exerting control over him. During this occasion, his heart seemingly gave two heartbeats, as heard by Raiden, using a directional microphone. By 2014, Ocelot had switched Liquid's arm for a prosthetic/cybernetic one to restore balance to his psyche.

While discussing his transplanted arm with Solidus Snake, the surgery of which was performed in Lyon, Ocelot mentioned that he "never trust[s] a Frenchman." Ironically, Ocelot was born in Normandy, France, and his preferred method of torture (electrocution) was developed by the French military during the Indochina War, and then used during the Algerian War. It was nicknamed "La Gégène," an abbreviation of Génératrice, which means "Generator." Ocelot's preference to this method may be the result of observing Volgin's electrocution torture in Groznyj Grad when he was younger.

Biography: Ocelot was conceived in late 1943 by The Joy and The Sorrow just prior to a secret mission. The Joy learned of her pregnancy during the mission, which resulted in her blowing her cover and being fired upon. Although the unborn child was saved from the bullet, The Joy entered a coma for three months before regaining consciousness. After making a full recovery another three months later, she speculated that her body had willed her to live for her unborn child.

Ocelot was born during the Allied invasion of Normandy, France on June 6, 1944 as Adamska. The Joy was wounded during childbirth in the middle of the battlefield, forcing her to give birth via cesarean section and the resulting operation gave her a snake-shaped scar on her torso. Shortly after birth, Adamska was taken from his parents by agents of the Philosophers.

Adamska briefly worked for the NSA as a codebreaker under the codename ADAM. But he and another colleague defected to the Soviet Union in September 1960. However, a seemingly contradictory account has the youth taken in and raised by the Spetsnaz GRU and Yevgeny Borisovitch Volgin in the immediate aftermath of World War II. Whatever the case, Ocelot would later serve under Volgin's command of GRU while secretly operating as a spy for both the KGB and the CIA; proxy organizations of the Russian and American branches of the Philosophers, respectively. Due to his heritage as the son of a legendary hero, he was given preferential treatment within the organization, promoted to the rank of Major at a very young age, and given command of his own personal squad.

In 1962, a threat towards Adamska's life was made to his mother in order to ensure that she would assassinate her former comrade (Adamska's father). His life was to have been forfeit if both survived the encounter, ensuring his father's death.

In August 1964, Ocelot traveled to Rassvet, Tselinoyarsk with the Ocelot Unit in order to capture Nikolai Stepanovich Sokolov for the GRU. He ambushed the KGB operatives stationed in the area and killed them, although he implied that he did not like having to do so, as they were comrades. Surrounding them with the Ocelot Unit, he attempted to kill Naked Snake by using a Middle Eastern technique that involved ejecting the first bullet by hand, but his Makarov handgun jammed at the last moment, resulting in Ocelot and his entire unit being defeated. Snake then suggested that Ocelot use revolvers, as he was quoted saying that he "tends to twist his elbow to absorb the recoil" which was a technique used with revolvers, before the latter passed out.

After regaining consciousness a short time later, Ocelot boarded Colonel Volgin's Hind A while they were airlifting the Shagohod prototype to Groznyj Grad. Having received two Davy Crockett missiles from The Boss when she defected, Volgin decided to test one on Sokolov's research facility, while Ocelot attempted to stop him. Unable to convince Volgin, Ocelot could only watch in horror as the Colonel launched the miniature warhead and destroyed the facility in a nuclear explosion. At some point afterwards, Ocelot managed to get some Colt Single Action Army revolvers, including one engraved model and three blackpowder models, and presumably also modified the Makarov bullet with a specialized ring attachment to give the normally 9mm Makarov bullet a diameter closer to that of the Single Action Army in the event that he uses it to exact revenge on Naked Snake.

One week later, Ocelot was ordered by the CIA to aid Naked Snake in Operation Snake Eater, in which The Boss, the Cobra Unit, and the threat of the Shagohod were to be eliminated, while also retrieving the Philosophers' Legacy for the American branch of the Philosophers. However, before Ocelot could meet up with Snake, a Chinese spy posing as EVA, pretended to help Snake in his mission while secretly plotting to take the Philosophers' Legacy herself for the Philosophers in China. Ocelot decided to keep his identity as ADAM a secret and aided Snake covertly. Throughout the mission, Ocelot and Snake shared a mutual rivalry and fought on several occasions. On the first occasion, after Snake again neutralized his unit at Rassvet, Ocelot attempted to lure Snake over to the area where he had captured EVA, and revealed that, following Snake's earlier advice, he had switched to using the a Single Action Army revolver, and then attempted to shoot Snake. However, he failed to realize that he had wasted all of his shots due to the SAA carrying fewer bullets than the Makarov, and EVA escaped in the process, after which Snake explained Ocelot's folly. Snake allowed a humiliated Ocelot to escape, allegedly because he was "still young," although it was actually because he had taken a liking to him.

Ocelot re-encountered Snake at the Bolshaya Past crevice, where they had a gun duel. However, it was interrupted with The Pain's hornets scouting ahead, forcing him to flee. Afterwards, he tried to play "Russian roulette" with Sokolov in order to intimidate him before The Boss ended up stopping him. She also scolded Ocelot for his earlier actions at Bolshaya Past, breaking his SAA in the process. After Volgin's forces managed to track down and capture Aleksandr Leonovitch Granin under accusations of being a spy, he also discovered that Volgin ended up killing Granin while torturing him inside of a drum can before he could reveal whether or not he was a spy. Ocelot later scolded Volgin about his practices, as well as his nuking the Sokolov Research Facility, with Volgin rebutting him due to being in command of Groznyj Grad, as well as feeling that it is his duty that he has to root out spies within the Soviet Union before it collapses. When Tatyana arrives, he smells her "perfume" (actually gasoline), and initially suspects her of being the KGB spy, but stops and instead comments on her "boots" (which were her biking boots instead of her officer boots).

After Snake was captured while infiltrating Groznyj Grad, Ocelot witnessed Volgin's brutal torture of the American agent. Though initially opposed to the practice, Ocelot later praised the effectiveness of torture, calling it "the ultimate form of expression." He also attempted to expose Tatyana's true affiliations after she prevented The Boss from gouging Snake's eyes out, subjecting her to his Russian roulette. However, Snake got in the way, resulting in the loss of his eye in the process, an act which earned Ocelot a violent slap from The Boss. He also jammed a tracer in Snake's back while hitting him, in case he escaped. Ocelot later hunted down Snake in the sewers, and was about to shoot him with the bullet from their first meeting, but Snake jumped off the cliff.

When Snake was again caught infiltrating Groznyj Grad, Ocelot explained how he had deduced that Tatyana was the spy EVA, and expressed his desire to settle the score with Snake, but was stopped by Volgin. During the fight between Snake and Volgin, Ocelot was ordered to shoot Snake. However, Ocelot refused, instead throwing items down to Snake to use against Volgin. This alluded to Ocelot's admiration for Snake, although he explained that he did it because he had made a promise to The Boss. Afterwards, Volgin ordered Ocelot to locate the bombs that had been detected within the hangar. Ocelot later attempted to chase EVA and Snake down by motorcycle, and was also briefly saved by Snake from falling debris. He also nearly got killed from the ignition and backwash of the Shagohod's rocket booster engines while continuing his pursuit of EVA and Snake, which were deliberately activated by Volgin upon Ocelot's arrival as the former's revenge for his earlier disobedience. Ocelot temporarily abandoned the pursuit after they destroyed a nearby rail bridge which he narrowly avoided falling into, which also cost him one of his revolvers in the process.

When Snake and EVA made their escape in a WIG, Ocelot boarded the craft from a flying platform and, following a brief fight with Snake, decided to settle on a brief duel of quick draw. After the mission's success, the KGB Chief Director contacted Ocelot, where the latter mentioned that "Khrushchev is finished", and that the KGB's time had finally arrived, as well as suggested that they use the knowledge of both missions as blackmail against America in future negotiations. Shortly thereafter, Ocelot secretly made a call to the CIA Director. Their conversation revealed that the CIA had only acquired half of the Legacy, and it was assumed that the KGB possessed the other half. He also submitted some blueprints of a potential future weapon for the United States.

After the Horizon Incident, he wandered the states into California. He was paired with Phantom. They were chased down for an emerald Ocelot had unknowingly picked up by Shadow. He dropped it, but during that time, he tried to avoid Shadow by using a helicopter for a scene in Die Hard 5 while they were shooting a piece of film.

They arrived in the Drevis manor where they met Aya Drevis and were attacked by Alfred Drevis. They all escaped, but Aya was affected by Mathael's aging winds and Phantom is currently out of commision. They all are in a Hollywood apartment.

A month later, Ocelot was called by the Die Hard casting company saying they liked what they saw when Ocelot climbed their helicopter and asked him to be a part of it. Because he needed money to support Aya, her spirits and himself, he agreed.
