I won't be able to post tonight. But I'll be able to write it up and post in the morning. I'll also try and finish up some of the pretty name tags. They are so fun!

i made a character but i'm not sure if this rp is closed or not b]Name:[/b] Ion De Marko Aliases:The Honorable Wind Gender:male Age:26 Appearance (Physical): Ion has pale tan skin, is around 5'11 and is about 207 pounds ((you really would never be able to tell)) he has a somewhat slender but defined build with jet black hair. His eyes are a crystal ocean blue. His most defining feature is all of his tribal tattoos all over his body. His face doesn't have many but from his neck down to his toes he is covered in a old dead unknown script. Appearance (Apparel): Ion almost never wears a shirt and when he does he wears something of a tank top or an open shirt. He wears dark grey pants that look military with boots, although sometimes he doesn’t wear shoes either. He always wears a necklace that has an odd symbol carved onto the pendant. Occupation: person for hire (mostly mercenary but also does other things) Criminal Record:if each tattoo on his body represents a person whose life he took then he should go in for over 500 different murders but the most they could get on him is being an illegal immigrant. Personality: Ion comes off as a cold heart, murderous, thug that should die a horrible death in the gutter of some unknown town… and most of the time this small description is correct. he doesn’t like to speak unless he has to, but when he does he normally has too much to say. He doesn’t really care about the way his word or his actions affect those around him, he just thinks it’s better to be upfront then to hold in his own emotions and feelings. Ion hates it when people get to close to him, and he hates it even more when people invade his personal space. Yet when all is said and done he is actually quite educated. He loves to read, and he does actually have a big heart its just most of the time he choices to ignore it. To him the mission or the job always comes above morals, then again he never does a job that messes with his morals. The true way to describe him is as the wind. He can either be a soft and gentle breeze, or a rough gust of wind . Special Trademarks or Conditions:he has over 500 marks all over his body that act as a open criminal record. Weapons of Choice: he is very good with hand to hand combat but prefers other means of close quarters combat. he normally always has over 6 hidden knifes scattered about his body, 2 daggers in sheaths tied around his chest, 1 short sword at his hip, and two machetes in a sling over his back. Nationality: Romanian /Gypsy Background: Gypsys are very traditional. The way one shows their rank or skill is by literally showing it, either through flashy clothing, piercings, or in a warriors case your tattoos. Now most gypsys have tattoos for a number of reasons but a warrior has a tattoo to show every victory. The more tattoos the more honor and respect that person may have. These victories can be a battle, a war or even an enemies death, but all the same the actual markings mean different things to different Gypsys depending on what that individual wishes to show, Yet there is actually a tradition, a art so to speak in the method of which each tattoo is done. This is how a true story can be shown, and what makes each marking on each individual a completely different tale. The Blood of his enemy is grinded up with the earth of which it is spilt and blended with the petals of the victims homeland, this is the process used to create the ink. The needle is forged from the bones and weapons of his victim over the course of 2 days until perfection. To pay respect for his fallen opponent He cleanses his body for 7 more days by fasting and bleeding. Then he sits under black tarps of the old mystics for 7 days as the artful hands of the old sages write the name and date of his enemy. This is the Process chosen and created by Ion De Marko to honor every opponent whose blood has been split by his hands. Ion has done this process for every single tattoo on his body and he has over 500 of them that cover his body from head to toe. It is because of this process and the number of victories, that he is one of the most respected and well known warriors among the gypsy nation and one of the few gypsys well known beyond the shallow glass of the underworld. As a Gypsy Ion never remains in one place for too long, but he acts as a somewhat wandering man for hire. He has done many jobs from farm hands all the way down to assignation, but if you look hard enough chances are you will find the Honorable Wind. Edited by fuufuublue, July 20, 2010, 1:10 pm.

I made one for everyone already. But I kind of guessed on photos and stuff. (Some are a little sloppy too. D= It was late.) So, tell me if you want me to make another one with another photo or in another way. It's not difficult at all. So Zan, you can give me that photo if you want me to make you a different one. The guy in your photo is kind of younger than I picture Manco, but I liked the photo. (Also, don't feel bad if you don't like it or don't want to use it. I just like playing with graphic stuff. )Manco Katyenka Saskie Hikotaru Grigori |

Well, Grigori is perfectly suited for the Distraction team. However, another possibility would be to hit the limo. "Bulletproof" is only good for a certain definition of "bullet." A barret .50 will punch through light tank armor. Hikotaku, some armor piercing rounds and a cracked engine later, we have a heavily armed team surrounding the limo. Option 2: Find the limo driver ahead of time. Replace him with one of us. The driver gets a gas mask, tosses a knockout gas grenade into the back when the target and bodyguards are in there, and we have them. Option 3: Depending on what kind of plane it is, we replace either the stewardess who then drugs him, or if the plane is small enough to not have one, replace the pilots. The team then interrogates in flight or straps a parachute and the entire team bails, taking him with us for interrogation later. Option 4: Eliminate the bodyguards and driver ahead of time. Replace all of them with our team. He gets in the limo, and we've got him. Option 5: Use two cars, one in front and one behind, to box in the car. Lead car slams on brakes, rear car rearends the limo to ensure a 3-car accident. During the confusion and the shouting at the drivers, snatch and grab. |

Here are your new character tags, Zan. =) (We both agreed the guy in the earlier tags looked too young.) That means his old tags are up for grabs! (I have versions with no text) So if we have any new men joining us I can easily change those ones, that is, if the character fits. =) Manco Anyways... I like the idea of replacing people with our own. I know Kad would be a big fan of a little acting. I think a lot of the ideas written above could definitely work. (I'm not good at coming up with ideas myself, sadly.) |

Yeah, and the real advantage is that if they get away, we can resort to plan 1. Get Crosshair into the back of a car and get him close enough to crack the engine. Edit: There is Option 6. A few team members take out the limo before it reaches the airport, whether by car accident or heavy weapons. Target is out in front of the airport, wondering where it is. One of us who can carry the target sidles up alongside him as though waiting for a taxi. We have Crosshair put a tranq dart in the target, the team member on foot next to the target acts like he knows the now-unconscious target, and acting concerned, gets him into a cab, driven by one of us.

There's no way to identify the limo prior (it's Las Vegas for goodness sakes). We also want to alert the target as little as possible before we try and nab him. |

Well see. With Option five*, why would the middle man get out of the car? He can't be that stupid. If he has a team of bodyguards, it's for a reason. I think the limo driver would get out of the car, and maybe cause some commotion, but the middleman would stay in the car, with his bodyguards.

True, but the driver will at least have to stop, and likely exit the car. If he speeds off, he draws attention and cops. If he does the insurance trade, etc, then he can drive off without anyone paying attention. We neutralize the driver and storm the car. They can't shoot out from the car, because it's bulletproof. If they stick their heads out to return fire, we blast them. Limos have the driver partitioned off from the passengers, so they can't drive off. Option 7: We go old school. 18-wheeler, three big cars. 18-wheeler is in front of the limo with the target. Ramp to back drops down. The three cars are boxing the limo in, sides and back. The most powerful one is in the back, and forces the limo up the ramp. Ramp closes, drive off. Option 8: Easy mode. Get a few guys onto the runway, same as suggested Zan Plan. Grab a luggage truck. Stun gun and grab. We don't worry about an armed distraction, because anyone who gets in a firefight in an airport isn't getting out alive and outside of police custody. Instead, we leave an unattended suitcase, filled with "suspicious white powder." A suitcase and a buttload of talcum powder costs next to nothing. No matter what plan we pick, we can test out the reaction time of local authorities by doing something like tossing a brick through a car window. Something small enough that they won't be worrying about it the next day, but big enough they have to go deal with it. |

Well I suggested my original plan with the distraction, because I wanted to start off with a bad-@$$ brutal firefight and shoot up an airport... But if do that one option where we crash into the limo...driver gets out, chances are we could shoot him before he closes the driver-side door. We get in, unlock the door, grab him perhaps? |

so say we do option 5? we take out the driver and do like in option 2 in combination but a better idea instead of crashing the car...pop a tire...easier to fix after all...so while the driver and prolly a couple henchies are changing the tire...take em out, toss the package and what ever goons he has left in the car a present KO grenade from the partitian window and roll out after the car is dropped. the use of a sniper, would be to take out the tire and that can be done from up to a mile away...however...zan you'd have to give me a great description of the weather 'cause that kind of shot even slight weather changes can affect the bullet at that range... |

I don't think we could risk blowing out a tire while the car was moving on say, a highway. Las Vegas is a busy a shit place. Plus depending on the speed of the car, it could topple over and kill the target. We need him alive. (I like how we're planning it out) |

I think it's just easier to slam on the breaks in front of the limo after we've tailed it, and then rear end it. Drivers can get out, we shoot their driver, bodyguards will try to come out, we have ourselves a highway shootout and then take the limo and the middleman. Piece of cake? |

There is a much, much better and flasher way to do this though and I think the most fun. Let’s say the set up is that the package is in a limo with a few guards and the other guards box him in, in front and behind, maybe even a little police assistance and all cars are somewhat armored. When the package gets off plane we slid a tracker into his bag or onto him by bumping into him so we know exactly what car he is in at all times. Once he gets into downtown we pull out the stops. One 18 wheeler blows the front car and blocks the traffic, the other blows through the back car and boxes them in. we toss in some tear gas, some explosives, and the guards get out the limo to protect the package. The gauds are all quickly taken down and when the package checks the driver the driver ((one of us)) turns around and gives him a little shock to help him sleep. Short simple and very fun. |

That's a pretty neat idea. Sounds violent, which is what I'd like. Although switching drivers would probably impossible, I don't think we'd have a problem putting a tracker in a bag though. After all, Kad sounds like she loves that manipulation stuff. |

I'd say just shoot & grab. It's likely once we get into the driver's seat we can either drive away with him and load up the limo with our own people, or we just drag him out of his own limo and take him. |

I think the general consensus is to cause a car accident when the target is in the limo, blast the driver when he gets out, shoot any bodyguards that feel like earning their pay, and take the limo. |
