[The Fifth Horseman]

Some of you might remember the old Abandonia Apocalypse
If not, let me outline it:
1. I'm running a game of X-Com Apocalypse.
2. Every player who registers in this topic becomes a recruit in the X-Com squad.
3. I post detailed reports of what is going in the game and the achievements of your characters, while you are free to roleplay any events taking place in the base. You can walk around, talk with others, etc - also visit the armoury and do crazy stuff like food fights in the mess and playing pranks on other X-Com employees and each other.

Each registering player needs to enter the following information:
1. Preferred species. Human, Hybrid, Android?

Hybrids are physically weaker then humans, but better psionics. Androids are tougher, stronger, immune to psionics and start with higher stats but do not gain any stat increases.

2. Gender.

Not applicable to Androids

3. Stats specialization. (optional)

Which particular statistics (max two) you want your character to be particularly good at to begin with?
Check this pic for a list of stats in the game.

4. Role in the squad. (optional, but recommended)

Are you a close assault berserker? Demolitions expert? Sniper? Heavy Weapons specialist? Just a line trooper (who's role is no less important)? Or perhaps you've got another specialization in mind?

If you like, you can include a short bio on your character. Who are you? How did you join X-Com? What kind of person are you? This is of course optional, but hey... whatever suits your fancy! :amused:

The game will only start when there's enough recruits to fill the squad, but that doesn't mean you can't already start RPing. Feel free to explore the base, pick your bunk in the living quarters (etc). Major Damage is there to answer all questions you might (or might not) have.
