Character Name: Liska

Species: Reploid

Gender: Female

Age: 11 Weeks

Class/Type: Demolitionist/Bomber

Concept: Rebel /Fighter/Jester

Advantages:
Elemental Invulnerability (Fire)- Her body was build to withstand the heat of explosions, fire from incindaries.

Escape Artist- Her lithe body can work it�s way though tight spots and infiltrate buildings though air ducts with some success.

Weapons Knowledge- Focuses on Shotguns and Explosives, but knows other weapons as well.

Linguistics- Slavic, and Germanic languages as well as a few basic phrases in Japanese.

Mechanical Aptitude- She has plenty of experience repairing her shotgun and other small devices. Combined with her knowledge of weapons, she can also do basic modifications to create slightly improved weapons although it is more or less a slight change in the fuse or a basic do-it-yourself modification, so it's not very complex.

Street Smarts- She can pickup things pretty quickly.

Disadvantages:
Compulsion / Addiction- Fire and explosives. While she knows how dangerous they can be, and always tries to not involve her fellow mercs, she plays with explosives and fire a lot in and out of missions. With the addition of the munitions generator this can put a large strain on her energy / supply reserves, leading to lots of naps in the sun and very large meals.

Hatred- Perverts. Mercy be placed upon the soul that dare touches or looks upon any part of Liska that she doesn�t want them to see. For her wrath only results in much bloodshed and pain.

Primary Weapon:
Shotgun- Can fire plasma or shell type shots. The four basic attacks are 1) Shot Shell, The basic scattering ammo type common in most shotguns. 2) Slug Shot, a single large bullet that is quite powerful, and the two plasma varrents; 3) Shot plasma and 4) Slug plasma. 8 of either kind can be fired of before reloading or a cool-down period is needed. Plasma variants are stronger, but have a lower rate of fire compared with the weaker shell types.

Secondary Weapons:
Flare arm- A weapon built into her right hand that uses two main modes of attack, first is the flamethrower mode that shoots out a stream of fire that can be adjusted for range and intensity. The other mode, FAE, unleashes a cloud of high explosive gases and detonates it, creating a explosion that sucks all the air around it in and unleashes a powerful shockwave and fire ball.

While this weapon can do considerable fire damage, it burns up fuel at a quick pace and can easily harm any bystanders or fellow mercs so she tends to use it more often when she is by her self or if only hostiles are in front of her. One thing to note is that the weapon can use alcohol as a secondary fuel source, but with less power.

Plastic Explosives- Aka, Liska�s special. An advanced form of C-4 that is stored in cylindrical hand grenades that are slightly larger than a pop can. The Plastic explosive can be removed and applied into cracks or elsewhere but only Liska can do this. They are very powerful and can easily damage heavy armor plating or bring down walls and Liska does carry a lot of them into battle so she�ll rarely run out of them. However, a major drawback to this weapon is that it weighs a lot more than a standard grenade so it can only be thrown over short distances and the blast radius is large enough to potentially hurt her fellow mercs if they are any near it. Their weight tends to slow Liska down a bit and the extra bulk lowers her speed and mobility a small, but sometimes critical amount. It�s also very loud so using it to gain access to rooms in covert operations is clearly out of the question to the sane leader.

Accessories:
Munitions Generator- The centerpiece of Liska's design. It takes food particles from eating, runs them into the fusion generator as either fuel or uses the process of fusion to produce the needed elements for her explosives. The elements are then ultra compressed and sent to a stockpile in her body where they are stored until they are needed. The materials are then used to make shotgun shells, plastic explosives, or are used to refill her flare arm gas tanks. Nanites take the material and construct the shells or explosives in the palm of her left hand. These nanites can also perform simple internal repairs and are particularly good at maintaining Liska's specialized weapon, senor, and other internal systems.

This process however places a great strain of Liska's energy supply. For the most part, it is when the materials are separated / made that she has to switch to her limited back-up supply of power. Compressing the material and producing plastic explosives take up a large amount of power, but refilling her gas tanks and producing shotgun shells take very little energy and time so she doesn't need to switch to reserves. This is why Liska can be found taking naps throughout the day esp. after large meals. -15,000

Triple sensor system- A thermal, x-ray, and a unique structural integrity sensor that can sense weak points in solid pieces of armor or walls. They are all high end sensors that can sense very fine details. The only drawbacks are that the thermal sensor doesn�t work in a battle filled with plasma, rendering it useless in night ambushes, The x-ray sensor has a short range and can barely see past thick concrete walls, the integrity sensor take a while to get a reading, and it has to keep the object in question in view, making it hard to detect a weak spot in a fast moving target�s armor.

Special Abilities: None

Appearance:
Overall she has the appearance of an 18 year old female human. She has a slightly oval face with emerald eyes that have small brown lines noticeable if someone where about to kiss her� so most people don't know about this. Her hair is a deep brown with some deep red in it and it comes down to her shoulder blades. She has no particular style for it so it varies from ponytail to bed head style quite often. There are three faint horizontal scars beneath her left eye from her battles against the mavericks after her escape from the lab. She has a nice average build that leans towards a thin and is slightly shorter than the average reploid. Her defining feature in her wardrobe is that she always wears her belt with two pouches on it, even in battle, and that all her pants have lots of big pockets. Under her armor, she wears a pants and a shirt that have two outside layers of synthetic materials, one dense layer of Kevlar, and leather lining on the inside. They come in only three colors, gray, tan, and green. Her armor consists of gantlets, boots, Breastplate, head band and a shoulder pad on her right side. Her armor is primarily a rusty-orange color with deep blue trim and joint covers. The gantlets cover her hands to just below the elbow. Her fingers and lower arm are covered by cylinder shaped armor pieces with flexible finger joints between the armor pieces. Her back hand is protected by a square plate and her palm by two conforming plates that can move so her thumb can still move while being protected. Her boots cover the lower three fourths of her lower leg and her feet. The leg part is a Cylinder shape and ends above the ankle while the foot part closely resembles the boots the Neo Arcadian generals and Zero wears in Mega Man Zero. Her head band has a metal plate in front that covers her forehead, and is tied behind her head. Her shoulder pad is on her right side and has an image of a brown fox head and the numbers 0 1 in that order below the fox head and are deep blue in color. Lastly, her Breastplate is segmented into a top and bottom parts that cover from just below the collarbone to just above the belly button

Personality:
She resembles a mature (for her age), yet laid-back 18 year-old female. Liska is very relaxed when off duty and spends most of her time outdoors enjoying whatever she decides to do at the moment, mostly burning stuff. However, once she is alone or out in the battlefield, she turns into a complete pyromaniac, preferring to use fire or explosives to obtain her goals or just to have fun, thankfully, she can restrain her self from doing anything stupid� save a incident or two the firing range. She can only be open to the people she knows and trusts very well, so when it comes to meeting people for the first time will only give out the bare - bones. It takes a very long time to gain her friendship and trust, but she will still be genuinely nice with people while they are gaining her trust. If anything, the worst thing that any male person can do to bring out her bad side is to become too forward or try anything perverted, doing so will bring her wrath upon them. She is looking for a boyfriend, but is having a hard time since she has a hard time telling what is sincere and what's not, always going to the not sincere side to be safe, showing that she does have a problem trusting people and is slow to warm up to although if she gets to know a person very well, she can be fiercely loyal to them. If anything, a boyfriend would bring out her rarely seen sweet and cute side. She is a night owl and loves to sit outside by a fire gazing into the stars and prefers to do most of her work at night. She doesn't mind attention but she loves a good back or belly rub every once in a while. Lastly, she does get severe depression for a good bit of time if people constantly bring up her past or if they try to blame a problem on her that wasn't her fault, but only the latter if the person the is good at persuasion or does it long enough, also, she will start to believe it after a while. Both of these triggers of depression come from her past when she was dealing with her creator. Attention is pretty much the only thing that can drag her out of it quickly, even though she can drag her-self out of it on her own after a while.

History:
The story of Liska begins with the story of Dr. Harrington, who was a genius in the field of designing more human-like reploids as well as brand new, one of a kind technology, in many different related fields. The world quietly acknowledged his intelligence with the occasional mini-news report and articles in technology magazines and was though of highly by the engineering world. But, even though most people saw this nice, marry sue side of him, he had his down sides. You see, the 'good doctor' was kind of like Dr. Jackal and Mr. Hyde. Sadly, he only was Jackal on the outside, and Hyde on the inside. He had an uncontrollable lust for power, women, and money and even though he was a human, made plenty of deals with the mavericks. However, he was able to keep this a secret from the world for a long time.

Now this is were Liska's history starts�

The Hunters noticed his abilities and decided to commission a reploid that was designed for urban combat and also included in the deal were specially designed weapons for that reploid that would be the prototype for future weapons of its kind. He accepted the deal, and Liska, called Vulpine by her creator, was born. The hunters, however, over looked two important things. Firstly, he works much faster than most people know, he purposely tells people that he has completed a project a good long while after it is done and tested, and his dealing with the mavericks. It wasn't long before she was done and built, and her new technology, the munitions generator was done. As always, he tried to make his reploids more realistic, and gave her the ability to eat and taste food, something that was rarely done to any success. When she was done and built, He almost immediately made her the salve of his lab and abused the heck out of her. He told her that the reason he hated her so much was that she could never replace his lost wife, who died of natural causes. Soon after, the mavericks demanded the new technology be turned over to them, the doctor, however, gave it to an undercover Hunter by mistake. Learning of the immanent hunter raid on the doctor's lab, the mavericks attacked the lab, but were only able to kill Dr. Harrington before the hunters barged in and attacked the lab as well, destroying all the files of her creation and related technology. She escaped during the battle and managed snag her weapon that was designed for her, her shotgun and slipped away into the local slums, too afraid to go to the hunters since she was the creation of a 'maverick'. The Hunters, not knowing that she was done well before they arrived, did not look for her and assumed that she was scraped for parts or never started in the first place. Liska became a roaming reploid who for the most part took what ever was on the bodies of people who tried to kill her, or did odd jobs for the few people that could pay someone to help them. However, despite her best efforts, she wasn�t even bringing in enough cash to maintain herself and a large number of her original equipment and abilities, including the munitions generator, were worn and broken beyond use and needed serious repairs that would cost an arm and a leg to repair. It was at a bar that she overheard the name Freelance Reploids and decided to join that group. After a bit of asking around, she was able to find and join them, hoping that she could now start something that resembled a somewhat regular life, and earn enough cash to repair her original equipment to gain back her abilities.
