riverview: perimeter guard

[riverviewmod]

perimeter guard The Perimeter Guard of Riverview Quarantine is a military unit tasked with the job of patrolling the fences that protect the city and fighting off any of the predators, monsters, or other attackers that might try to get inside. They also provide backup for the Quarantine's law enforcement in special situations like riots, and escort exploratory or fence repair missions into the abandoned parts of the Quarantine.

It is overseen by Perimeter Guard Captain Anali Apple, who is efficient, brisk, and foul-mouthed. Only strict about the truly important things, Perimeter Guard Captain Apple runs a tight ship.

New arrivals are more than welcome to join up with the Perimeter Guard if they have the requisite skillset - being a good fighter and willing to take orders and take initiative when the situation arises. Prospective new recruits can sign up at the Perimeter Guard Office, and will be given a two-week-long boot camp to get them acclimatized to the Guard. They have the option of living in the Perimeter Guard Barracks or off-site, either is fine as long as they're never late for inspection or a shift. Being a member of the Perimeter Guard is a paid position, and characters are compensated enough to live comfortably.

Characters who join the Perimeter Guard can either start off as regular patrol members and work their way up the ranks, or they may be assigned to or join one of the following special units. special units

• Search & Rescue: This unit is in charge of the rescue of any Guard members or civilians who get stuck or injured outside the walls while exploring. Additionally, they provide extra support in the case of dangerous creatures coming through the portal.
• Mental Health/Support: This is a special unit for characters who are licensed therapists, counselors, or psychiatrists. They offer mental health support for members of the Guard and their family members. They may also support the Guard in regular duties if necessary (and if they are sufficiently skilled).
• Wall Research & Development: This is a special unit for characters who are qualified to work on the tech or structural integrity of the wall in the Abandoned City.
• Riverview Reconnaissance 1 (RR1): A small task-force working in direct correlation with the Wall Research & Development team. Daily tasks include providing escort and assistance to engineers from Wall R&D, clearing and securing future work-sites, reporting dangerous and unusual activity near exterior facilities, and procuring resources necessary to the development of the wall itself. To join, please see this thread.
• Surveyors: This is for characters who are more interested in exploration than fighting. While they still report to Anali, they are less military, and are the type of explorers who can travel fast, light, and tough. They scout the Abandoned City and bring back corrected maps of the various areas to keep the Government and Perimeter Guard informed on the state of things in the Abandoned City.
• Orientation Support: This special unit is on call to greet new arrivals and help with their orientations. This is another less-military unit of the Perimeter Guard. Members should be good fighters, but very compassionate and welcoming.
• Perimeter Guard Cadets: This is a special youth unit for characters 15 and under who would like to join the Perimeter Guard but are too young. Cadets train together, help with Perimeter Guard functions inside the Inhabited City, and can sometimes go on easier supervised missions outside the walls with guardian permission.
• Aerial Survey & Exploration: A special unit led by Captain James Kirk, this unit focuses on the exploration of the moon via shuttle. This unit will focus on mapping out terrain, studying relevant information such as topography, geology, climate, energy fluctuations, land and water masses all around the moon, as well as the study of the atmosphere and the small area of space surrounding the moon.

[wiccant]

Character Name: William "Billy" Kaplan
Special Unit: n/a
Applicable Skills: Chaos Magic wielder! Billy has more magic than he knows what to do with; he's able to manipulate reality around him to his will, usually using a few repeated words. He's able to track down anyone, summon others directly to him, flies, shoots bolts of lightning, teleports, enables/disables tech, can use shields, location spells, heal, etc etc. Basically as long as he can think of it and it's not game breaking, he's capable of doing it. He's used to working on a team and has no problem following (reasonable) orders.

[breqintopieces]

Character Name: Breq
Special Unit: Surveyor
Applicable Skills: Breq has extensive experience as a soldier stationed on unfamiliar and hostile planets (usually as a conquering force). She's helped in that by her modifications, which give her uncanny accuracy and reaction times, and her armor, which she can raise at a thought. She's also spent time as a pilot and general vagabond fending for herself around the universe. Finally, she's a quick thinker, good at making snap decisions under pressure.

[analienprince]

Character Name: Teddy Altman
Special Unit: Orientation Support
Applicable Skills: Teddy is a strong fighter with superhuman strength and nearly impossible to pierce skin. Not only that, he has shapeshifting ability that allow him to fly or blend in with his surroundings. This ability also allows his organs to shift on their own whenever he is dealt damage that may cause injury. He is resistant to pheromones and toxins and can heal at an accelerated rate. While also a skilled fighter, Teddy is kind and compassionate towards others and would be eager to help wherever he's needed.

[madeupnames]

Character Name: Spider-Man (yeah he's currently trying to be covert, idk how long that'll last tbh with how nice everyone is and how many marvel people know his identity, etc, etc.)
Special Unit: N/A, unless you think he's suited somewhere specific!
Applicable Skills: Pretty decent at fighting, but especially good at keeping a look-out thanks to honed senses, webbing/capture, and swinging through tall areas/treetops! He'll just be part-time in what he does since he'll be focusing on school and helping around town as well.

[mutant_messiah]

Character Name: Cable
Special Unit: Search & Rescue/RR-1 (if accepted via IC application process.)

Applicable Skills: Extensive experience in leadership and strategy. Proficient in hand-to-hand combat and capable of using any gun or weapon he gets his hands on. Can go for hours on end without rest and be a-okay. Remote teleportation allows for teleporting within the setting's borders with limited passengers.

Can mind-link (with player's permission) which allows for far more private conversations and planning if needed.

[indigobird]

Character Name:
Special Unit: (n/a if the character is a regular patrol member)
Applicable Skills: Hawke is a mage, one who specializes in Force and Primal magics. In layman's terms, she's good at manipulating gravity and in using magics connected to the sky and earth, like creating storms or petrifying enemies. She also can heal minor injuries. Outside of magic, Hawke also knows hand to hand and uses a bladed staff if she's forced to fight in close quarters. In her canon, she's battled countless kinds of enemies, ranging from wildlife to bandits to powerful maleficars (mages gone bad) and more, and she's been on the run for the past few years, so she's good at surviving in the wilderness.

[glowfeelers]

Character Name: Mantis
Special Unit: Orientation Unit
Applicable Skills: Friendly, warm, and welcoming, Mantis is ready to greet all new comers and help them feel welcome! She already has experience in playing host to interplanetary guests and has a genuine desire to be helpful, so she fits pretty well into the Orientation Unit. As an empath, she can also soothe (or literally just put to sleep) those who are especially upset or angry, if necessary.

[mannerism]

Character Name: Peggy Carter
Special Unit: Internal Affairs
Applicable Skills: Espionage, code-breaking, fighter, strategy and investigative work.

[themostbest]

Character Name: Sigrun Eide
Special Unit: regular member, but will be promoted to Squad Captain

Applicable Skills: A regular everyday human, but one who has been a soldier for pretty much her whole life. Experience leading a regiment from her hometown, with a long history of fighting supernatural diseased monsters. She is quick, adaptable, capable of a great deal of stealth when she wants to, and is good with a variety of weapons.

While she's in the Perimeter Guard she's going to be learning how to drive and how to use more modern weapons, so fair warning, Sigrun with a rocket launcher is definitely going to happen.

[honeybadgerer]

Character Name: Gabby Kinney
Special Unit: Cadet
Applicable Skills: healing factor, the ability to feel no pain, expert marksman and fighter.

[onlyeverdoubted]

Character Name: Bodhi Rook
Special Unit: Aerial Survey & Exploration Unit
Applicable Skills: Bodhi is a trained starpilot whose gifts are mostly for technical flying. Don't call him for a dogfight, but tricky atmospheric conditions? Storms, weird air masses, pressure changes, he loves all that. If nature tries to kill you a little it's not personal. He's also an information sponge and, while mostly self taught, is a real nerd about geology and cartography.
