Since I have no idea what it does, up in the air about midway between the village and the people.

From your dramatic pose, you cast the spell Wildcard. Immediately after the arcane words exited your mouth, your staff began vibrating. Suddenly, a giant badger, as big as a man, shoots out of your walking stick. It goes into a super man pose, flying serpentine over the heads of the very confused people on the beach. It gives a mighty yodel as it flies, filling the town with the haunting, high pitched and squeaky sound. Just as suddenly as it came to existence, it vanished into pixie dust over the lake.

That got the villagers and invader's confused attention.

[Harbingerjm]

Dramatic arm gestures, yell "WIZARD!"
Be sure to maintain stable footing.

You manage to keep stable footing, to the amazement of the bird from earlier. Everyone else just looks at you, completely confused. The invaders seemed to have drawn there weapons, but are not doing anything yet.

What do you do now?

[Harbingerjm]

Do I have any food? If so, feed bird. If not, inquire if it would be interested in a career in looting shiny things.

You have some travelers bread on you. Or it might be a rock, it is hard to tell. Either way, the bird pecks at it twice, then squawks. You can tell it is interested in the position, but its eyes seem to ask questions. Does it pay medical? Dental? What is the life insurance policy? Will he be able to take six weeks paternity? Does the position have a chance to move up in the company? When you are about to answer all these questions and more, a shout from two people on the beach manages to reach you.

"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU!"

What do you do now?

[Harbingerjm]

"I AM THE MIGHTY WIZARD OF SOTH!"
"Medical and dental are covered under the Loot Group policy. Life insurance is that the Group tries not to let you die, and if you do die with dependants they're taken care of by the Group Pool. Paternity is available- unpaid, but existing Group Pool funds can be allocated if needed. Starting position is as Associate, and multiple paths of advancement are available, from Full Member to Familiar to Group-Associated Businessperson."

[Patrick Hunt]

Finish them off with aimed bursts.

(( Hmmm I hope this lot had a good store of weapons even if it's only standard stuff. I can use it to encourage basic people to join me, arm them and use them as fodder units and keep the elites as my bodyguards until I can get a few special team mates then I can give each party member a team and split my forces into snipers, heavy weapons, tanks, assault and demo forces. So I need 4 party members.

Then I augment them 4 then I augment each of them a team.

Is it possible to get into the city? With all that gold maybe they'll pay richly for somebody to kill off the bandits and mercenaries who are causing them problems.

When my defense rolls don't fail this armor rocks, gonna need to add some extra augments to it later though.))

Name: X5
Items: Shotguns, heavy guns (eg. minigun), or pistols.
Profession: Vigilante (See Bio)

Race: Augmented - Sub-Dermal armour - Inbuilt armour, provides protection whilst reducing speed. && Computer aided vision - Allows extra vision modes such as infra red and targeting, but vision can be overloaded for a short time and can glitch.

Appearance: X5 is large and well built, with close shaved brown hair. Most of the area around his eye is occupied by his Visual Augmentation system, and his other eye socket is completely empty.

Bio: Victor Kar was in his early life a member of the IEF - International Elite Forces. This group operated under it's own control, taking on tasks which only the brightest and best could achieve in return for two things, a roof over their heads and a certain amount of freedom from the law. With intergalactic travel, their services became more and more neccessary as crime moved rapidly through juristictions and traditional policing had little effect. And in free space, where the raiders often lay in orbit, there was no law at all.
 The man himself was known for his no nonsense approach to his work - he took no prisoners and was known for his tenacity and the fact that he had never once backed down for a challenge. Of course, he only had to fail once in the end. A mission on Earth, seeking a criminal - Derius Kar, his brother - who was making people dissapear without any trace whatsoever. He found the villain there, and a massive battle commenced. All the IEF members lost their lives, Kar included. And as he was shot, he witnessed his killer run through a doorway to nothing, and simply vanish.
 Kar awoke in a lab, surrounded by the corpses of his squad. Bodies that lay, cold, blue, and lifeless, outlined in red in his head. But he wasn't. And clearly, he had changed.
 It took two more years of training before the cyborg deemed himself ready. The process that had ressurected him had failed on those he considered family, and his true family was responsible. Disgusted, Victor discarded that name, and took the project's codename as his own - X5. Then he set out, searching for Derius, a man who dissapeared through the portal.

The two arguing men from below give a second, even louder, shout, "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE!?", scaring away the bird. Perhaps it was for the best, the bird has a wife and kid at home, perhaps he should avoid dangerous work adventuring.

Your team begins to fight of the remaining enemy troops. Both sides are fighting the hardest they have been all night, though your men are coming out on top. The AA team fires a rocket at you, smashing into your leg! Though your armor managed to defeat most of the blast, your armor was pierced! You receive two damages and start bleeding a little, nothing problematic. Your guns decimate the lupine defending the AA team who was fighting you, leaving it exposed. Your enemy only has about a third of its men left. The snipers begin to retreat. What do you do now?

Realized we are in different time zones and that I will probably get one post in a day, and should start already, if it isn't acceptable you will have to wait. Not like I am getting you into a gunfight right off the bat.

--------------

You look around your new surroundings. You are not very impressed. The only visible buildings are the outpost you just came out of and a broken-down attempt at a factory. There is nothing else but barren, scorched Earth. The land your target has run to is a wasteland as far as your eyes can see.

You had just exited the portal moments ago, after a several month long flight and a thousand credits to get through the door. Nobody had any idea who you were talking about. They don't exactly keep records of everyone who comes in, and even if they had, he would probably find away around it. None of the soldiers had seen him. You are in a strange wasteland with no leads.

What do you do now?

[Patrick Hunt]

Finish off the survivors and leave them to run, if we kill them all then search the camp and gather up every weapon, piece of armor and valueable object in it.

The small group of survivors are defeated by your men, gunned down to the last. You focus your guns on the two man assault team. You kill one of them, but the one holding the launcher aims for one final burst. The rocket hits near one of your men, dealing one damage, causing only a small wound. Your squad finishes him off in a hail of bullets.

Your men switch off combat mode to be able to loot the camp effectively and start off to their job. You are about to search yourself, when a whispering voice greets you. "Was it worth it?" the voice said simply.

What do you do?

"Would they have?" The voice said, sounding like a genuine question. "They were mercenaries, not raiders. Raiders get payed when the doors get burst open. Mercenaries get payed until then. If they are truly loyal to money and themselves, they would avoid fighting at all costs."

The voice seems to get closer after that. "One of your men died. A dozen of them were killed. And what were you fighting over? A few hundred gold's worth of equipment? How much gold are your soldier's lives worth?"

"I suppose I should just cut to the chase." the voice continues, "How much gold would it take to get you far, far away from here, never to return?"
