Alright troopers. Listen up! We got clean up duty. It appears that some Convenant dirtbags have managed to evade our guns up in space. Worst yet, they have the balls to place foot on our soil. Nuh-uh. That ain't happening. Not on our watch. Not for long. Command has seen fit to drop you lazy bastards right on top of their heads for us to do our job. Our objective? I want you, to paint the soil purple. Leave no alien alive. Leave no trace of them behind. I want you to shoot, blow, crush, burn and destroy by any means necessary, any and all freaks within the radius of Earth. There will be no Master Chief to hold your hands, nor to coddle your ass. Each and every single one of you fight, or i shoot you myself. We will not break. We will not falter, we are ODST.

Move out men! Get into your pods and prepare to drop feet first into hell.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Welcome back to Earth. Its October 23rd, 2552. Things have been ruffled up a bit since the last time you guys were here. Convenants have now landed on a few places on Earth and are pummeling local forces as always. However, this time, its different from the colonies. This is Earth. We fight to win or die trying. This is where you come in. Join up as an ODST, a marine or even a civilian and fight to your last breath against the alien scum.


This is a non-canon rp based on the hit FPS game Halo. Its timeline and events link in with the actual story, but it does not play a major part in affecting anything if you do not know it. There will be opening for being ODST, but these will be limited. If you miss out, you can be a normal marine. Do remember that marines are a good deal less effective and skilled and armoured than ODST, thus do expect to be killed at certain points. If you are, feel free to create another character.

IMPORTANT NOTICE!

This rp leans more on the realistic side. The story is about how badly the humans are being mauled at war with a group of aliens. That means that they are not that easily killed, nor do the humans have the advantage. Each character is not superhuman, nor the master chief. If you choose to play human, the rp will be based heavily on teamwork and strategy, not blindly running up and spraying. If you do that, i will give serveral warnings before i will kill off your character, as it is what will happen in the Halo universe. Also, if you do not wish to be human, but covenant just say so and tell me which race and i'll pop a bio up for you.


Humans:
Each uniform is pretty much the same. However, feel free to add a small bit of personalisation such as decals or symbols and maybe a few extra items. Also state what loadout you begin with.

ODST: These are the modern equivalent to paratroopers. They drop in in ceramic pods through the atmosphere behind enemy lines and engage in combat. They are the elite of the marines and are the cream of the crop.

Their equipment consist of a full body armour and visor that are much superior to the standard marine battle armour. It is able to take much more damage than the normal soldier, through having ablative plating. Each trooper can hold two firearms. However, they are not superhuman are are incapable of holding multiple heavy weapons, so balancing weight out is required.

Marines: The standard infantry for the human army. These soldiers possess more simple battle armour than the ODST, thus are not capable of taking the same amount of damage. Similar to the ODST, they are capable of holding two weapons, but weight limit has to be observed.

Weapons: Only one heavy weapon per person. In addition, if you do not specialise in a certain class, efficiency with specific weapon will be lowered. EG, Sniper, Rocket Launcher.
Standard UNSC firearms:

M6C/SOCOM Sidearm: Light
M7S Caseless SMG: Light
MA37 ICWS Assualt Rifle: Medium

M90 CAWS Shotgun: Medium

Ill be putting in my bio tomorrow, but all be off to bed shortly...
 
Yo, got room for an explosive Corporal in the ODST?

Name: Tony Smith
Nickname: "Smithy"
Race:Human
Sex:male
Age: 25
Affiliation: ODST
Rank:Corporal
Specialty: Explosives
Appearance: Tony, underneath the armor, looks like a man on steroids. Though he can't move as fast as others, he is immensely strong, staying true to his appearance. He generally attributes it to his street brawls and farm living back before he joined the ODST, but that's a different story.
His head, whenever he isn't wearing his helmet, is a bit more plain. He has red hair and green eyes. His face is strange, because it seems anonymous. No one seems to be able to remember his face for some odd reason.
Weapon: M41 SSR MAV/AW + M75 Caseless SMG
Armour: Standard
Personality: Loud and rambunctious, Tony is the loud one of the group, in weapons and personality. He talks often, and cheerfully, and is always ready to pull a prank on his teammates if he can. Generally the soul of the group, and sometimes most annoying, Tony is tolerated because he has the big guns.
In a combat zone, his mood shifts to far more serious. His skill with his Rocket Launcher is pretty sharp, and he's no slouch in using his sidearm SMG when he has to. When he talks, it's generally to give advice or yell out orders to marines. Generally listened to, though, because you want to stay on the good side of him.
Other then that, he is a loyal soldier and will follow his superior's orders unless they somehow harm an innocent human or himself, in which case he'll improvise.
Brief History:WIP

I hate writing histories. I'll make one later, k?

Private first class will be good enough for me, ill post my bio later today...
 
right. thats one corporal gone and one PFC taken.

I like how you've balanced your character out, where he is real tanky but a bit slower. Very nice.

i guess history isnt too important of a tab. just something brief.

I cant believe it but i missed the AGE tab. Put that in too if you could.

in any case, im not a stick in he mud to hold you back because of a history, but do get it done ASAP.

For now, APPROVED!

Awesome! I'll probably get a history up when my anime stops streaming. I would say tomorrow then.

And age shall be added right now!
 
I didnt get to writing that bio...well today ill be working and heading to my girls house, so be expecting that but nothing else in the next few days, because I would like to spend quality time with her. I know you understand :monster:
 
Np, ill see if we can recruit a few more peeps. PLus, we got your position reserved for ODST.
 
Name: Billy Steel
Nickname: 'Wild Bill'
Race: Human
Sex: Male
Age: 22
Affiliation: Marine
Rank: Private
Specialty: Medic
Appearance: Billy is a smaller man that leads by example. He is not that strong, but his job never required him to be. He used to be a sprinter in his free time before he joined ODST to help out. He made a good living as a doctor, so he figured he would be just as good a medic as a doctor. When his helmet is off, he shows off his short black hair and black mustache. People always rememer his face because his hair sticks out more than anything else.
Weapon: M7S Caseless SMG + M6C/SOCOM sidearm
Armor: Standard
Personality: Billy is the quiet one, preferring to let his work do the talking for him. When he has to, he sticks to the point so his speeches are smaller than most. He is always serious about his work and doesn't really mess around too much. People respect him because he help keep people alive (or try to anyways).
Brief History: When he was younger, he was an intern at his old school, helping out the nurses. He went into the medical field after school and quickly got a job at a hospital. The hospitals in his area weren't having many patients and he didn't want to find another hospital, so he decided to join the ODST. He easily found his place and was accepted in, so he started working on his speed to get to someone wounded farther away. He hopes to get enough field experience to join ODST someday.

Hm... several things.

The most major point is the age. Some bg info on ODST recruitment is that they have to go through 2 other special ops training programs and have recommendation. At 19, your character wouldnt have much exp and time for those training. So, maybe i should have stated it in the opening, but minimal age would be 23.

That is the only major part. The rest is just random mumbling and suggestions.

Secondly, optional, but it is recommended that you carry two weapons. As a medic, might as well pack the pistol.

Also, waiting to be called to war isnt the correct. We have been fighting for 20 years. Also, to be ODST, one has to have prior combat exp and recommendation. Dw about changing the history though. Doesnt play a major part.
 
Well, time to make my presence known here.

Don't worry about the history, cause I know some people here haven't played or understood Halo enough to know the battles behind the Human-Covenant War. But you might want to bump up the age or something. PM me or Tipsy, we could help you with that part if you wanna change anything, ok.

BTW, it actually was 30 years we've been fighting.
 
Sorry about that. I'm not totally caught up on the story yet.

I made some changes to my bio, but if I need to make more, just let me know.
 
o rly? I must have missed a few years XD.

Well, at 22, you'll be the FNG then, aka the newbie to the division. And as a PFC, i guess it works out.

It seems fleshed out enough bar the appearance. if you could actually describe what his face looks like. image is okay too, but put it as a link along with a brief worded description.

In any case, here is my guy. If any one wants to be a marksmen, say so, and ill drop the position.

Name: Rikkimaru Kuma

Nickname: L.T, Bear, Rikki

Race: Human

Sex: Male

Age: 25

Affiliation: UNSC ODST

Rank: First Lieuntenant

Specialty: Weapon Specialist

Appearance: Rikkimaru defies the typical convention of a hardcore UNSC veteran. He is leaner than most, but has the same msucle capacity as the others. His face is long thin, with his eyebrows always knitting togther in a perpetual frown. His lips follow his eyebrows which always seem to be serious and unforgiving. It is only though his constant time in the field and his natural genes allow him to always have a short ponytail. His hair grows erratically and quickly, so he cuts it often. Recently, with lack of time, it remains as a short low ponytail that reaches the base of his neck. its definitely not regulation length, but it doesnt impede on his duty and no-one higher up seems to give a damn.

Weapon: MA37 ICWS Assault Rifle, M392 Designated Marksmen Rifle.

Armour: Rikkimaru's armour is the usual standard type with a few modification. Where as the standard armour have backpacks, Rikkimaru's one carry an extra lower bag beneath the regular one and an extra left leg thigh bag. In addition to the standard CQB knife on his chest, Rikkimaru sports a longer machette that hangs on the lower right of his lower bag. On the middle of his helmet, he has a lighter grey flaming comet decal.

Personality: Rikkimaru is the intellectual serious type. His looks reflect his personality in it that even when joking, they are mostly witty and smart while his face remains straight, with an occasional slight smile. He lives by the principle of leaders lead and expects the best from himself and his men, thus he is strict in terms of dedication and performance during battle. Whatever situation he gives his men, he will be willing to do it too. Thus, he is well liked by his men, even with his slightly cold demeanor. As long as his men give him 120% effort, then all is well and everyone will get alon.

Brief History: Rikkimaru was born a soldier. His family had always ran the tradition of enlisting into the military, and that is what he did. With the proud history of his ancestors behind him, Rikkimaru pushes himself to the max. His profficiency and willingness to volunteer for dangerous mission placed him in the scopes of ODST recruiters in which he volunteered for the unit at 22. Although already a lieutenant, he was deemed too young to be one for the highly dangerous ODST. So they extended OSC course for another year. At 23, he officially joined the ODST and was sent off to war as part of the unit. He had sporadic career, fighting all over the place against the covenant. However, his most impressive feats were his involvement at Sigma Octanus and his survival from Reach, where he manage to extradite his squad off the planet after holding off the first few waves of Covenant assault on the reactors for the Orbital MAC Guns before they were ordered to retreat. Now, back at Earth for a short period, the Covenant had begun their attack and has been informed of imminent deployment.

Name: Jean-Baptiste Richards
Nicknames: Jean, Eagle
Race: Human
Sex: Male
Age: 40
Affiliation: UNSC Orbital Drop Shock Trooper (ODST)
Rank: Gunnery Sargent
Specialty: Close Quarters Combat (Formerly Heavy Weapons Specialist)

Appearance:
Jean-Baptiste is 6'3" and weighs 195 lbs. A former Boxer before joining ODST, he has well defined muscles from his usual workouts. He has moderately bushy eyebrows and a 5 o'clock shadow. Jean-Baptiste has short black hair. Jean-Baptiste also has some minor scarring in lower part of his face, partially due to a close call with a plasma pistol round to the face in a previous battle.

Weapon of choice: M90A Shotgun, M7S Suppressed SubMachine Gun

Armor: Jean-Baptiste wears the standard ODST Armor, but wears a bandolier belt around it coming from the left shoulder to the right side of the lower abdomen., allowing him to carry extra spares of ammunition at one time. He also carries a CQB Knife on the right side of his Chestplate.

His emblem is an Eagle (similar in design to the Eagle that makes up the official coat of arms of the United States) which is on the center of his chest plate.

Personality: Behind his tough exterior lies a man with deep spiritual convictions and respects for those he serves and fights with. As one of the oldest members of Kuma's ODST Team, he serves as an adviser for the much younger Lieutenant. Despite his sometimes religious nature, he is a foulmouthed SOB who would use his position to try and improve morale with his team.

Brief History:
Jean-Baptiste was born in Losantiville, Seven Hills on the Planet Mars on December 16, 2511. His father was a professional wrestler and his mother an actress.

The Williams Family History dates back to the mid-22nd Century where his ancestors fought in the Martian Campaign of the Interplanetary War (2160-2170). As such, Jean was interested in the life of the UNSC and aspired to join their ranks. When he turned eighteen, he immediately signed up to join the UNSC Marines.

Before Joining the ODST's Jean took part in the Third Battle of Harvest and the First Battle of Arcadia as part of the Marine Complement on board the UNSC Spirit of Fire in 2531 before switching to the Pillar of Autumn.

Jean-Baptiste volunteered for ODST and joined their corps shortly before taking part in the Jericho VII Campaign where he worked with future ODST Taylor H. "Dutch" Miles in the defense of the Space Elevator there.

Jean would later be attached to Lieutenant Kuma's squad in 2552 where he took part in the Battles of Sigma Octanus IV, Reach and Tribute, giving him deep respect for Kuma's leadership. He now works with his squad for the defense of Earth.

Race: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 25
Affiliation: ODST
Rank: Private First Class
Specialty: Weapon specialist
Appearance: With shoulder length brown hair, he keeps his hair well mended, but also retains a rebellious look. He has a slim body type, but still maintains streingth to carry any weapon. He stands at 5'9".
Armor: Standard
Personality: He likes a good laugh. He jokes around a lot and is only serious when the time demands. Sometimes while killing his enemies, he still kids around but also in a serious manner. He also has an urge to run around a lot in a bored mood.
 
He jumps ships after the Arcadia battle (but before the Battle in the Flood-Infested Shield World)

Justified though, since most of the men were still taking on pockets of covie forces still on the planet.
