  1. Idiocentricism - a moron's belief that he matters.
  2. Ethnoweeb A person so enamoured of a particular culture that they can no longer control their impulse tp correct anything they see as a mistake about it.
  3. Iron Hawk Sigrid von Mienbad was born in Uruguay to dedicated, unreformed Nazis. He grandparents had used the "ratlines" to escape Europe after WWII, had a bunch of kids and inducted them into their ideology. Her parents were at first hesitant about giving up their daughter for training as a spy and assassin - a good Nazi girl's job was to marry and have lots of Nazilings - but she was spirited and headstrong, and they saw a chance to give her what she wanted while doing their part for the Cause. Sigrid was taught the arts of stealth, infiltration, acting, seduction. She also learned to use various weapons, ranging from blowguns to artillery, though she had a particular liking for knives and the Filipino art of Kali . She made her first kill at 13, using her youth to get close to a pedophile politician - she was so disgusted by him she first paralyzed him with a toxin, then castrated him and allowed him to bleed out. (Her handlers rated this only a 9 out of 10 - he could have been saved if he'd been found before he exsanguinated.) However, Sigrid is a highly intelligent individual. Shortly after she turned 18 (and just after her 35th assassination), she murdered her handlers, obliterated all their records of her in a fire, and went freelance. She recognized her parent's ideology as obsolete, stupid and worthless in the modern world, and she has no use for inferior ideas. Sigrid's skillset is all about killing. She is quite capable of gathering information, exploring areas, and scouting, but she sees these as secondary to her real job of ending lives. She is not dispassionate about this - on the contrary, she quite enjoys her work. In her time she has killed men, women, children, anything she gets paid for, or who gets between her and her target. Her fellow Ninja view her as a go-to for pure wetwork.
  4. Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
  5. Bloodmoney Some have powers. Some have tech. And some simply have fanatical determination. Sarah Spillane was radicalized in college. She went from wanting to protect animals and save wildlands to an intense hatred of those who would abuse and destroy the natural world. She first came to the attention of the world (and the team) when she infiltrated the shareholders' meeting of a major (and majorly polluting) company and slaughtered the board. Since then, the influence of some of the other members has caused her to use primarily non-lethal means...in public. Actually, she is still murdering "ecocriminals" on a regular basis, just not openly. PRIMUS and UNTIL strongly suspect the killings are her doing, and of course they are still trying to arrest her for the initial rampage, but the rest of the team is either ignorant or turns a blind eye to her activities out of the public eye. Bloodmoney usually wears a heavy armoured suit similar to a bomb disposal suit but better designed for mobility. She's a good martial artist and an excellent shot - whether her shotgun carries bean-bag rounds or armour piercing slugs. She also usually carries grenades, again choosing between flash-bangs and frag on a case by case basis.
  6. Shark Eight meters long, jaw full of rows of triangular teeth, a powerful tail and stabilizing fins...but also a sleek set of arms folded up beneath capable of fine manipulation or powerful, ripping strikes, a brain far larger and more complex than any fish has a right to, and modified gills capable of working just fine in air. This is Shark. Black Ocean reasoned that, rather than make a man aquatic, why not make a shark smart enough to comprehend orders and give it the tools to get the job done? To be honest, however, Shark has been a bit of a failure as an agent. Too aggressive, too single minded. But as a killing machine..?
  7. Neandertal Master The least understood of the team, this man looks like the prototypical Neanderthal Man - large, well built, short but massive, with notable brow ridges. But far from being a brick, the Neandertal Master is only a little stronger then average, it is his mental powers that make him dangerous. He can teleport to any location beneath the earth, view through the rock to find caverns and voids, and mentally control any person underground. It's not clear why these abilities don't work above ground, and Neandertal Master isn't saying.
