C.E.M Penal Squad ‘Forlorn Hope’
Name: Brad
Age: 32
Gender: Male
Role: Leader
Notes: A former special forces commando, he loves combat and killing, but he hates crime, believing criminals to be ungrateful for the sacrifices he made for them to protect their rights…at least that’s what he’ll say. He married at one point but the marriage dissolved after killing his father-in-law in a hunting trip, Brad’s defense was a simple, “He was an asshole and deserved it,” rather than executing him and wasting his talent he was given charge of a penal squad and his sentence was to serve until he died. Course it’s not really punishment for him since he loves war; he’s charming, likable, and psychopathic.
Name: Dixon
Age: 32
Gender: Male
Role: 2nd in command
Notes: Unlike Brad, Dixon is more level headed but is no less dangerous. He too was a commando, he traded in his military life for a domestic life though this transition didn’t work out and after a couple of months he murdered his boss after a heated argument. Like Brad he was placed in the penal squad to serve until he dies.
Name: Donny
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Role: Close quarters expert
Notes: Growing up under the thumb of the Disciples and bullies, he was submissive until his sister was beaten by her boyfriend who claimed to be a Disciple, he lost it and bashed his head in with a baseball bat. Rather than regret it, he enjoyed it. He was put in the penal squad to serve his sentence in the army, he proved to be an exceptional soldier but preferred to bludgeon enemies to death.
Name: Hugo
Age: 31
Gender: Male
Role: Interrogator and knife expert
Backstory: Before, Hugo was a successful lawyer though his conscience tortured him since he was a defense attorney and often found himself defending murderers and rapists. He finally snapped after he won a trial that he was actively trying to lose, from then on he hunted down all of his former clients that he believed were guilty and tortured them to make them confess their crimes then murdered them. He was assigned to the penal squad by the C.E.M after showing skill with interrogation by only using a knife.
Name: Nichols
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Role: Sniper
Notes: A sniper with renowned talent, only when he returned he had nothing. Feeling like his talents were going to waste he became a hitman but was caught and placed in the penal squad. Cold and methodical, he lives to see his enemies heads blow up. He hardly talks and when he does it’s usually about his kills. When asked why he didn’t just stop he said that killing was the only thing he was good at.
Name: Hudson
Age: 29
Gender: Male
Role: Demolitions expert
Backstory: An army grenadier and explosive expert who had an unhealthy obsession with White Phosphorus. In one incident, he burned the flesh off of his left arm and it had to be amputated, it’s replaced with a prosthetic with a built in grenade launcher and flamethrower of his own design. He was labeled as mentally unfit to continue service and was discharged…he didn’t take it too well and long story short he was placed in the penal squad after burning down a bar in what he claimed was an accident, “It was supposed to blow up.” He likes hearing the screams of enemies as they are either blown up or being burned, he’s anxious and often impatient.
