"The world's first line of defense"


The Frontline is an initiative proposed by Colonel James R. Stryker, Executive Director of S.I.G.H.T., The Strategic Intervention and Global Hazards Taskforce during the 00s after the defeat and loss of several thousands of superheroes and metahumans during the Rikti War. It seeks to recruit, train and assist this team of metahumans to act as the world’s first line of defense, hence, The Frontline.


OOC Notes:The Frontline is a heavy RPSG inspired by Marvel's The Ultimates, Avengers (MCU) and Blizzard's Overwatch teams. If you're a "soldier, scientist, adventurer or oddity", you should fit right in with our group. Our flavor of RP combines elements of spy thrillers, modern comic book storylines, and good ol' fashioned capes and tights with just the right amount of goofiness to have a good time.

LEADERSHIP:
Jon's bravery, situational awareness and "team-first" mentality makes him an effective leader. Always "knowing the score" and what to do in the situation to best lead his team has earned him a reputation for being one of the finest field-leaders in the meta-human community.

Jon Morrow was dubbed the "soldier of tomorrow", after volunteering for The Steadfast Soldier Initiative in his younger brother's stead. .........retconretcon Jon crashed on Prime Earth through a dimensional rift. The crash altered his physiology forever when the serum he was injected with reacted with the dimensional timestream. Jon used his newfound abilities to help people while preparing himself to complete his mission, which was approximately 140 years into the future. Jon, dubbed "Morrow" by the people he helped participated in every major war in Prime Earth history up until WWII.

Towards the end of 1945, Jon was gravely injured and put in cryostasis by allied scientists. While in cryostasis, Jon was studied and examined, becoming the foundation for what would become the "Steadfast Soldier Initiative". Designated Soldier-One, Jon's blood served as the catalyst for numerous Steadfast Soldier spinoffs; including Steadfast Soldier Gamma: Metacide.

Fast-forward to 2020, Jon has served his mission and now works tirelessly to protect PRIME EARTH.





CITIZEN THIRTEEN
NAME: James G. Rodgers
STATUS: ACTIVE | PLAYER: @Citizen Thirteen
blasterlogosmall-16x16.png brutelogosmall.png Dual Pistols / Martial Combat
13Frontline.png

UNITED STATES SUPER SOLDIER:
Project Citizen turned James Rodgers into a cybernetically enhanced super soldier. Gifted with superior strength, enhanced speed and endurance, heightened reflexes, and enhanced biology making him much more resilient and decreasing recovery time from sustained injuries.


SPECIAL FORCES/BLACK OPS:
Thirteen’s Special Forces training and experience has left him with a wealth of knowledge on weapons available throughout the world(and even some off world), and the skills necessary to adapt to the harshest of environments. From the unforgiving elements of Mother Nature, to blending in with foreign societies, Thirteen is a survivor.

CLOSE QUARTERS COMBATIVES:
Decades of military service have honed Thirteen’s hand to hand prowess above and beyond that of the average combatant. He's an expert in various forms of martial arts, and utilizes what feels natural and practical for him in the moment. His style of mixed martial arts tends to be extremely brutal and effective, with zero flair or elaborate movement. Gut punches, groins, throats, knees, choke holds, it’s all on the table.

GUNSLINGER:
Probably the most notable feature of Citizen Thirteen's skillset is his ability to handle firearms. Give this man a gun and he can accomplish anything with it, even breakfast. He is efficient and precise with a rifle, brutally devastating with a shotgun, and mildly psychotic and terrifying with a M60 machine gun. But none of it is as glorious and artful as when he is with his Colt 1911 .45 ACP handguns.

COLT 1911 .45 ACP:
America’s handgun since World War II. Keeping his chambered in the traditional .45 ACP(as anything else would be blasphemy), Thirteen’s custom 1911 handguns are tailored to his needs, with Trijicon night sights, custom magwell, tactical rail with surefire light attachment, threaded barrels, and higher capacity magazines.

CYBERNETIC ARM:
Thirteen’s right arm is not only stronger and more durable than his already super-soldier enhanced left arm, but it’s chock full of gadget goodies. An energy shield, tazer, lock picker, basic electronics hacking program, short ranged single use EMP device, and a biofoam injector for filling deep penetration wounds. It is made of a combination of alloy steel and impervium, making the arm extremely durable. Through extended surgery and further cybernetic modifications, the arm is reinforced through Thirteen’s shoulder and spinal column.

PATRIOTIC BODY ARMOR:
Thirteen’s torso is protected from a combination of Dyneema and Kevlar, with his chest and back having thicker layers of Kevlar, and his sides and underarms being covered with Dyneema to allow for more flexibility.

Born and raised in Beaumont, Texas, James Graham Rodgers enlisted into the US Army at the age of eighteen as an 11B Infantryman. James fast tracked his way to Green Beret in just under five years, having completed numerous military schoolings such as Airborne, Air Assault, and Ranger School along the way. From there he conducted combat op after combat op, until he was severely wounded in 2005. Having lost his arm, it looked like a early medical retirement was in order. But thanks to his exemplary military records, he was flagged as a potential recruit for Project Citizen, a black operations super soldier program. James was determined to continue his service, and accepted this opportunity given to him. Project Citizen turned this already exemplary Soldier into a Super Soldier, utilizing bioengineering and a fusion of top of the line cybernetics to replace his lost arm. James was assigned the code name of CITIZEN THIRTEEN denoting him as the thirteenth of many other service members in the program. It was the name he went by for the next decade before retiring from military service in 2015.

After trying out civilian life for a few years back home in Texas, James moved to Paragon City to follow up on an invitation he'd received from Agent Michael Wilson of GUIDE. GUIDE being a federally funded program that recruits and sponsors meta humans to become super heroes and icons of hope in the public eye. While not exactly keen on the Public Relations aspects of GUIDE, James Rodgers felt it could be his best chance to satisfy a yearning in his heart to protect people who may not be able to protect themselves. Garbed in patriotic themed tactical gear and registering to the FBSA with his old Project Citizen moniker, CITIZEN THIRTEEN returned to duty once more.




GODSLAYER
NAME: Wyatt Riley
STATUS: ACTIVE | PLAYER: @Specs

GS-VVProfile.png

DIVINE ENERGY MANIPULATION:
The Armor of God pieces in Wyatt's possession grant him with the ability to expel energy externally in the form of a sword or fist offensively, or a shield defensively.

ENHANCED STRENGTH:
The armor grants Wyatt with increased strength.

ENHANCED DURABILITY:
The armor also grants Wyatt with superhuman durability.

FORMLESS FIGHTING STYLE:
While Godslayer has very rudimentary fighting prowess, he compensates with an unpredictable style. Telepaths have trouble reading his moves because he doesn't even know what he's going to do next. Wyatt claims this is skill, while other think its due to his stupidity.


RIGHT GAUNTLET OF GOD:
A powerful gauntlet that endows Wyatt with the ability to channel DIVINE ENERGY.

LEFT GREAVE OF GOD:
A powerful greave that endows Wyatt with the ability to channel DIVINE ENERGY.

Wyatt Riley has always put himself in harm's way to help others. Unfortunately, rarely did he have the strength or the smarts to help. Not until he put on the GAUNTLET OF GOD. which bestowed upon him great power. He'd used the gauntlet to do good things in his life, but was quickly swept away with stardom. Eventually, that all came crashing down, and now he's more known as a washed-up, drunk, has been.
