Re: Character Sheets
Name: Sergeant Roy Kelly
Age: 25
Appearance: Roy stands at 6'1" with a broad chest and shoulders. Blood red hair, thick enough to stand up on its own even when clean, and kept in an unkempt mop, much to the anger of any RSM within eyesight. His uniform is also kept unkempt, his reason being that clean, crisp clothes are a danger, especially on stealth missions.
Country/Branch of Service: British Special Air Service (SAS)
Background: Roy grew up with a knack for tinkering with things, which he developed into capable hacking skills at his school, hacking his way into the networks to unblock websites him and his friends wished to browse instead of doing their lessons, he signed into the British Army as soon as he left school and almost immediately after went for SAS selection. Roy originally joined the Army out of his battle-lust, then decided to stay long term after his girlfriend, a Sky News reporter, was killed while doing a report on the Afghanistan war, as he no longer had any reason to withdraw from the Army. His incredible stamina and skills with weaponry and technology alike bought him promotions and respect, apart from the Regimental Sergeant Major's, who despised his unkempt appearance. His reasons were that for stealth, you want to look and smell like your environment. If you're trying to hide in the grass with shiny boots and reeking of Persil, you won't last long. He proved to be an expert shot but refused to enter as a Sniper, instead becoming his units sharpshooter. Although he has a tendency to enjoy melee combat when he can get close enough. He is a Black Belt, 2nd Dann in Ju-Jitsu. Roy's superiors told him of a multi-national counter-terrorist team comprising of elite agents from N.A.T.O countries, and that they believed he should enter for it as a British representative, never being one to refuse anything from a superior (unless it was an RSM), he applied for the team. He is rarely called by his surname except at formal occasions or in the presence of an old-school officer, preferring Roy, or occasionally he is referred to as "Flamin' 'eck!" by his friends, a reference to his hair and outbursts of profanity when angered.
He is adept at disguising fear with a veil of "I don't give a damn", but he is afraid of naval vessels, and hates getting on them. He prefers by far to go by helicopter. He is also afraid of large open spaces, and strong sunlight, leading him to despise Afghanistan and other modern Middle Eastern battlegrounds, although he can deal with this by wearing a cap to shield his eyes and avoiding large spaces, sticking to the outside edges or taking underground routes. He has oddly strong wrists allowing him to be capable of maintaining control of weapons with powerful recoil such as his D.E.
Weaponry: Roy dislikes automatic weapons, due to their lack of precision. He uses a modified semi-automatic U.S M14 Battle Rifle, with fibreglass stock (to eliminate the problem of a wooden stock swelling with moisture) and a specially fitted foregrip. It is equipped with a Precision Reflex Sight (Red dot sight), and a suppressor (Suppressors don't actually behave like CoD4, they muffle the sound of the shot but they don't decrease accuracy or range, they actually increase it, due to the extended barrel length, they just had to give suppressors some kind of weakness so they weren't too much ownage, they do however, wear out and need replacing after about 50 shots). He also carries a specially modified, and very expensive Desert Eagle, which features a longer barrel for increased accuracy and a detachable scope, which has a x4 zoom feature. For close range stealth kills, he also carries a Mk.23 Mod 0 handgun system, comprising of a H&K pistol, a suppressor, and an LAM (Laser Aiming Module). He carries a British Army standard knife, but prefers unarmed CQC. He always makes sure to carry 5 spare .45 ACP magazines (holding 12 rounds) for his Mk.23, 5 spare .357 magazines (holding 9 rounds) for his D.E and 4 spare 7.62x51mm magazines (holding 20 rounds) for his M14, along with 4 spare suppressors for his M14 and Mk.23. He also carries whetstones for his knife and 2 Frag grenades, 2 Flashbang grenades and a smoke grenade if he can get his hands on them. Roy usually carries a British Army WWII snipers periscope, as British troops tend to believe that the WWII ones are superior to modern ones, and is also known to carry one or two .50AE (Action Express) clips for his D.E LB, as they pack a much greater punch than his usual .357 rounds, although he still usually favours the .357 as they can carry more bullets in a clip, 9 as opposed to 7 in a .50AE clip. If needs be he can use his M14 on its fully automatic mode, although he has never actually done this before except in training, as the powerful 7.62x51mm rounds cause enough recoil to upset even his accuracy. He has had training with a multitude of weapons, including the usual S.A.S weapon, the H&K MP5, the MP5 SD2 (same as the MP5 but with a built-in suppressor that doesn't wear out), the AK-47 and its various descendants, including SMG versions such as the AK-74u, and another of the weapons popular with the S.A.S, the M4A1 SOPMOD (suppresor, M203, foregrip and precision reflex sight).
