Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name, Surname, Title, or Whatever (username in here please): Lieutenant David Hargrove (Powder Miner)
Class: Masterchef
Likes*: Danger, Entrepreneurship, Guns, Chicken Wing (Consumable)
Dislikes*: Cowardice, Mediocre Food, Bleeding Hearts, Borger (Consumable)
Backstory: David Hargrove grew up in a poor family, his father an industrial worker who was frequently injured and bounced from job to job, and his mother... really, really not good at cooking. By the age of 7, David had already taken it upon himself to learn to cook, and was significantly augmenting the quality of his mother’s meals through a burgeoning talent for cuisine, notably skilled with vegetables and chicken. By the age of 11, he was the one entirely cooking for the family — and territorial about it too, insisting that it should only be him. Unfortunately, at the age of 11, his father also died due to complications from a compound fracture of the leg. His mother remarried almost immediately, but David couldn’t stand his stepfather and it was mutual, so after only two years he left home. With a painful part of his history behind him and the world in front of him, the young David was inspired to...

...go stay with his uncle briefly before supporting himself with a number of jobs, kicked out of one after the other due to a combination of incredible stubbornness, self-righteousness, belief in the value of confrontation, and unwillingness to put up with the practices of shady bosses. Notably, he actually served as a legal assistant for 3 years until he got into a drag-out knock-down brawl with a client. It was hard to find jobs, increasingly, due to his reputation, so now 19 years old and with few places to go, David drew upon his willingness to leap headfirst into danger and joined...

...his home district’s military. Although he applied as a cook, David showed a profound amount of aptitude for the dangerous job of an infantryman, and so that’s what he became, shipped off to THE WAR to go fight on the front-lines, something now-Private David Hargrove did not complain about one bit. He was reliable, brave, and not a half-bad shot, so David was slowly promoted up the enlisted ranks, to Private First Class, to Corporal, to Specialist, to Sergeant, to Staff Sergeant, to Sergeant First Class, and with his leadership skills on display through his entire time as enlisted, he was then put through officer training school and promoted to Lieutenant Second Class, to Lieutenant First Class. Then, THE WAR ended and though he’d served throughout THE WAR with distinction, he found himself ill at ease in a peacetime military, so he left it and chose instead to take his skills to...

...founding restaurants and owning properties! Still as skilled of a cook as ever, despite the years spent mostly fighting, David started a time as an entrepreneur, starting food stands around gas stations, then after finding success due to the quality of his chicken, he purchased a motel, one he soon built a restaurant next to. He experimented with chicken frying techniques, and soon found ways to cook more chicken than any competitor could, leading to the wild success of his restaurant, which he named Kasheville Chicken Fryin’, or KCF for short. KCF soon became a franchise that spread through his country and then the world in a whirlwind several years, and David acted as both owner and face for the franchise, known and feared for appearing at random KCF restaurants to make damned sure they weren’t screwing his recipes up, berating them and hopping the counter to show ‘em how it was done if they were. At 31 years of age, his hot temper hadn’t cooled at all, and he got into a social media fight with Roland McDoland, the head of a burger chain, which soon spiraled into an actual real-life pitched gunfight, one which David was known to say “that he totally won, shot that red-and-yellow-and-white sonuvagun right in the ass,” and that “it was the most fun he’d had since THE WAR.”

Still, the fact that he got into a pitched gunfight with Roland McDoland was quite the scandal, and rather than give in to demands to resign, he instead decided to salvage his reputation —and have a lot of fun while he was at it— by lending his skills and headfirst demeanor to the Heroes of Nobelian Kingdom.

This character takes very heavy elements from a certain real-life restaurant founder, but also does use some entirely fictional events.

Name, Surname, Title, or Whatever (username in here please): Brother-Corporal Maximus Hammicus (Solymr)
Class: Ültramarine
Likes: Lex Legio, Battle Training, Hashbrowns Supreme (C), Chicken Wings (C)
Dislikes: Codebreakers, Non Lex approved Drugs, Mega Donut (C), Espresso Grande Maximo (C)
Backstory:
Maximus Hammicus was inducted into Legion Ültra from a young age, training and studying its code of conduct, the Lex Legio, until he was of age. By the time of his initiation, he was a 7 foot tall, massively muscled Battle-Brother like many others of the Legion, with extensive knowledge of the Lex Legio and its doctrines.

On what should have been a glorious first mission under Colonel Custer's 7th Brigade to retake an orbital fortress, everything went terribly wrong when the fortress reactor's catastrophically exploded, launching it, the entire 7th Brigade, and the evil invaders into the oblivion of empty space. Except for Maximus, who arrived back at Nobelia in a escape pod. His battle-brothers much celebrated his miraculous return.

After a few more missions and a promotion to Battle-Corporal, Maximus showed promise as a great Ültramarine, but at the Battle of Teutoborger, both fighting armies succumbed to a disastrous mishap involving subterranean explosions and a massive ravine. Maximus was once again the only survivor, limping back to the Legion Ültra's encampment. His battle-brothers rejoiced but started becoming suspicious.

His military career strangely stagnated after this, despite Maximus being perfectly compliant with the Lex Legio (as he frequently stated loudly to his companions). He still was able to gloriously fight with the Legion until Maximus' platoon was assigned to recover an experimental device from a pirate spaceship. A massive storm engulfed the Legion and pirate fleets, obliterating them, except for Maximus' fighter wing. Maximus triumphantly returned with the device to the Ültraheadquarters, or so he thought, as his battle-brothers immediately put him in Ültrajail and demanded an investigation into Maximus' actions.

In spite of whatever anyone may think, the Ültrainquisitors found no fault in Maximus' course of actions during any of these disasters, as they were all adherent to the letter of the Lex Legio (as Maximus kept loudly asserting), and released him from jail. However, no battle-brother would want to be assigned to his squad, battalion, or fortress. Maximus was assigned to a remote guard post, but even the few of the less adequate Ültramarines rather face Commissars than Maximus' company, and he was left to guard the post on his own, which he did without complaints and perfectly according to the Lex Legio.

Until the Ültradministration got tired of receiving daily detailed reports of nothing happening during his patrols, and decided to honorably discharge Maximus from his service against his will. Dejected, Maximus enlisted himself in what to him was the second best thing: HoNK.

Class: Sage
Likes: Recreational Drugs, Parties, Nature, Camping
Dislikes: Authority, Laws
Backstory:
Frank doesn't know where he came from. The first thing he can remember is waking up in the woods. The only thing that he had was a name tag saying "Frank". He assumed this was his name, and began to look for other signs of life. While he was exploring, he discovered that he had extensive knowledge of plants and animals. He decided to camp in the woods, using berries and small animals for sustenance. After camping on his own in the woods for a while, he stumbled upon Nobelia.

Years later, he had become acclimated to life in Nobelia. He began to sell herbal "Supplements" to high profile clients. This gained him notoriety among the city. He became the subject of a sting operation by Nobelian law enforcement. When he was caught, he was forced to use herbal knowledge to make medicines for HoNK.

[Solymr]

I'm analyzing the effectiveness of all classes in various roles:

Single-target Damage (PICK): The ability to deal damage to a single target, duh. Doom ailment is also included in this, but I usually skip over other DOTs.
AOE Damage (AOE): The ability to clear large amounts of mooks in a single turn.
Single-target Disruption (DIS): The ability to lock down a single enemy and prevent them from going out of control.
Crowd Control (CC): The ability to debuff large amounts of mooks at the same time.
Tanking (TANK): The ability to not die, mostly by resisting damage.
Self Sufficience (SELF): The ability to buff or heal oneself in various ways.
Support (SUPP): The ability to buff and heal the rest of the party in various ways.
AP Generation (APG): Probably the most important, the ability to use abilities. Don't let the name fool you, I take into account skill costs and AOE is heavily linked with it.

Spoiler: Analysis of all classes (click to show/hide)

Champion
PICK (B): One of the few classes that starts with a high damage Weapon, plus Xross-Xtrike and Hero Sword Attack make for good single target damage.
AOE (A): Clean Sweep can clear 5 mooks even with +HP thanks to the Claymore 2 base damage.
DIS (A): Disabling Hit will lock down one dangerous enemy for a long time.
CC (D): Nothing beyond single target abilities.
TANK (A): Super high HP and second best starting Armor, nullifying normal mook attacks even with +Atk. Even better with Duck and Cover, and for an ally. Only for physical attacks though.
SELF (D): Nothing outside of Duck and Cover.
SUPP (C): Taking hits for allies (and no damage from physical attacks) is all.
APG (C): Nothing until Clean Sweep, which usually refunds itself.

Elementalist
PICK (B): Several skills deal single target damage, with special mention to Conflagration for the additional On Fire damage.
AOE (A): Ice Lances can clear 5 mooks even with +HP.
DIS (A): With a mere 2 AP the Elementalist can put a single enemy completely out of action for 4 turns. Thunderclap also inflicts a significant debuff.
CC (B): In case Ice Lances somehow doesn't kill, it will inflict Slow on up to 5 enemies.
TANK (D): Very low HP, Scale Armor does enough to protect against normal mooks, but the best protection is for rare damage types.
SELF (D): Nothing outside of Scale Armor.
SUPP (C): Fogcall is an excellent Evasion buff that usually will benefit allies more than enemies.
APG (C): Nothing until Ice Scales, which usually refunds itself.

Faerie
PICK (B): Only Faerie Fire inflicts a lot of damage, but it's a lot of damage.
AOE (F): Nothing whatsoever.
DIS (A): Several extremely strong single target debuffs for variety on shutting down an annoying enemy.
CC (D): Nothing beyond single target abilities.
TANK (D): Only regarding Magical damage, and on one of the lowest HP class.
SELF (C): A significant buff to Hit and Evasion that lasts for quite a while.
SUPP (B): Cheap heal that also removes some ailments.
APG (F): Nothing whatsoever.

Gorgon
PICK (C): Only ok with Eye Beams. Petrification is absolutely not worth 9 AP to kill a single enemy in 3 turns while giving them mixed bonuses.
AOE (F): Nothing whatsoever.
DIS (B): A couple cheap and long lasting debuffs good for setting up kills and preventing skill usage.
CC (D): Nothing beyond single target abilities.
TANK (D): No armor, and a small HP bonus.
SELF (C): Potentially great self healing with Regeneration.
SUPP (F): Nothing whatsoever.
APG (F): Nothing whatsoever.

GIFTA
PICK (D): Acid Spray will deal some damage over time, but nothing special unless stacked repeatedly.
AOE (F): Nothing whatsoever.
DIS (B): A couple cheap and long lasting debuffs good for setting up kills and preventing skill usage. Same as Gorgon.
CC (D): Nothing beyond single target abilities.
TANK (D): OK starting Armor, nothing more.
SELF (A): Extremely good Evasion buff and self healing.
SUPP (C): Pep Talk is an ok buff, but it's free.
APG (B): Not only are their abilities all cheap, they can generate free AP with Pep Talk.

Martial Artist
PICK (B): Painted Strike and Masterpiece deal massive damage for their cost. Requires setup though. Artistic Collab however doesn't.
AOE (B): High-Kick Paint Tornado can wipe 3 mooks easily. Dazzling Art Show can do immense damage to a lot of enemies with proper setup.
DIS (C): Joint Smack is a good disabler.
CC (C): If somehow enemies survive Dazzling Art Show they will all be inflicted with Blindness.
TANK (F): Nothing whatsoever.
SELF (C): A pretty good and free self boost.
SUPP (F): Nothing whatsoever.
APG (D): The AOE abilities are high cost and will at most only refund their own cost.

Masterchef
PICK (D): Only the basic attack.
AOE (F): Nothing whatsoever.
DIS (F): Nothing whatsoever.
CC (F): Nothing whatsoever.
TANK (D): Nothing beyond Mystery Stew.
SELF (B): Snack is ok and several abilities also after the Masterchef themselves.
SUPP (A): The absolute best, with several good buffs that affect the whole party, including Mystery Stew.
APG (A): Snack is more effective at generating AP than trying to kill mooks, making it a higher priority.

Necrolover
PICK (A): Between The Black Kiss, Saturday Night Fever, Total Eclipse of the Heart and the possibility of 6 extra allies attacking a single target, the Necrolover can decimate a single target in a wide variety of ways.
AOE (B): Depends on the raised mooks, but up to potential 7 different targets.
DIS (A): Heel Strike is a cheap attack for a good debuff. Saturday Night Fever will ruin a target.
CC (D): Nothing beyond single target abilities.
TANK (F): Nothing whatsoever.
SELF (C): Wound Salt can provide a good damage buff.
SUPP (C): Wound Salt can provide a good damage buff to allies as well.
APG (D): Nothing until Waise Fwom Your Gwave, after which it's largely up to chance.

Ninja-Samurai
PICK (A): Zanzetsuken can do massive damage and other skills also do large amounts of damage.
AOE (A): Several skills that, despite low damage, can affect either 3 or all enemies.
DIS (D): None of the debuffs do more than prime the targets for taking even more damage.
CC (B): Can apply debuffs to all enemies, priming them for a complete wipeout.
TANK (D): Not much beyond Evasion tanking.
SELF (B): Massive +4 Evasion buff that renders the Ninja-Samurai almost unhittable.
SUPP (D): At most, priming enemies.
APG (A): Starting with Kunai Trio, a cheap ability that can grant up to 3 AP, and after that the all enemy damaging abilities can self sustain almost indefinitely if it weren't for low initial AP cap.

Noble Blade-Star Crusader
PICK (A+): Literally the only thing they're good at, and depending ultimately on their Weapon. Combo can get ridiculous.
AOE (F): Nothing whatsoever.
DIS (C): They also do ok at this with Armbind and AP lowering.
CC (D): Nothing beyond single target abilities.
TANK (F): Nothing whatsoever.
SELF (F): Nothing whatsoever.
SUPP (F): Nothing whatsoever.
APG (F): At least the abilities other than Combo are cheap.

Numerologist
PICK (C): Good potential all around, but entirely dependant on RNG and Weapon, save for Rig the Slots.
AOE (F): Nothing whatsoever.
DIS (B): Enthropy Die can do a good number on an enemy.
CC (D): Nothing beyond single target abilities, despite Skew the Scales being random.
TANK (F): Nothing whatsoever.
SELF (D): Nothing unless Skew the Scales buffs them.
SUPP (C): Skew the Scales is a pretty good buff combined with a pretty good debuff.
APG (F): Nothing whatsoever.

Pilotmecha
PICK (B): Fully charged deals 15 damage to the main target and other abilities do good damage as well.
AOE (C): Positron Artillery Beam will do good work on 3 targets.
DIS (B): Don't underestimate Irradiated debuff.
CC (D): Nothing beyond single target ability.
TANK (B): Energy Barrier nullifies all incoming damage (up to 7) rather than reduce specific types of damage.
SELF (B): A great Evasion buff lasting for more than one turn makes it even better.
SUPP (F): Nothing whatsoever.
APG (C): Positron Artillery Beam is cheap and will at the very least refund its own cost.

Puppet Master
PICK (B): By proxy, with several high damage puppets, and directly with Great Sacrifice.
AOE (B): By proxy, since each puppet can attack different enemies.
DIS (D): Nothing specific.
CC (B): By proxy, with Magic Doll's Light Flash, since it affects all enemies.
TANK (B): Ok armor, can protect themselves and others with Guardian Dolls.
SELF (C): Can restore puppet HP by a significant amount but not their own.
SUPP (F): Nothing whatsoever.
APG (B): Each puppet will generate AP for the Master, and their own abilities don't have cost, making this one of the most efficient classes.

ROBO
PICK (B): Has decent damage on various skills, especially Micromissiles.
AOE (A): Great one on Devastator Laser.
DIS (C): Cryo-Beam does an ok work even if it doesn't freeze.
CC (D): Nothing beyond single target abilities.
TANK (C): Best starting Armor, nothing beyond that.
SELF (C): Very needed Self-Repair skill is also great.
SUPP (B): Technically Lock On only counts for a single enemy, but a resurrection is great to have.
APG (D): Nothing until Devastator Laser, which only does enough to sustain itself.

Sage
PICK (D): Nothing beyond attacks.
AOE (F): Nothing whatsoever.
DIS (F): Nothing whatsoever.
CC (F): Nothing whatsoever.
TANK (F): Nothing special, low HP and ok armor against magical.
SELF (F): Nothing else.
SUPP (A): Minor heals, resurrection, and a major damage buff against a single target.
APG (C): Bestiary Check provides free AP generation.

Skyranger
PICK (B): Ok damage on various abilities, especially High Noon with its (potentially suicidal) quad damage.
AOE (C): Shortbarrel does good work on high HP enemies.
DIS (C): Can inflict a few debuffs for a short time.
CC (D): Nothing beyond single target abilities.
TANK (D): Only Evasion on their starting Armor, which gets suppressed under High Noon.
SELF (F): Nothing whatsoever.
SUPP (F): Nothing whatsoever.
APG (F): Nothing until Shortbarrel, and even then it can't refund its own cost.

Sorceror
PICK (D): Nothing that stands out.
AOE (D): Good one on Chain Lighting.
DIS (F): Nothing whatsoever.
CC (F): Nothing whatsoever.
TANK (B): Bejewelled and Scale Cloak are both good defensive buffs that can be self applied, but very low HP.
SELF (D): Sorceror can also summon a Ghost Dagger for themselves.
SUPP (A): Great and varied buffs, including the powerful Quickening.
APG (D): Chain Lighting can generate AP as long as RNG determines good hits.

Uwu-child
PICK (D): Nothing special.

CC (F): Nothing whatsoever.
TANK (B): Good starting Armor, good Armor buff on Blobknight.

CC (B): Do not underestimate Irradiated, especially on everyone left alive.
TANK (D): Good starting Armor, nothing else.
SELF (C): Great self damage boost, but reduces their HP.
SUPP (F): Nothing whatsoever.
APG (B): After a mere one kill, Blunderbuss can generate a lot of AP.

Wizzard
PICK (C): Nothing special beyond a setup Chain Lighting.
AOE (D): Good one on Chain Lighting.
DIS (D): Nothing beyond AOE.
CC (A): Light Flash might be the best CC ability.
TANK (B): Despite having the lowest HP, Stone Skin and Arcane Shield can make for a surprisingly resilient Wizzard.
SELF (D): Afterimage is just barely ok since it only lasts for one attack.
SUPP (B): Can boost the tankiness of anyone significantly.
APG (A): Energize is another AP generation that's plain better than attacking, but Chain Lighting has the rare potential of 1 more.

Zubatman
PICK (C): Can do good against armored enemies, but nothing beyond ganging up.
AOE (D): Only if summons remain to attack other enemies.
DIS (B): Forgetfulness is ok to have.
CC (D): Nothing beyond single target abilities.
TANK (D): Ok armor, terrible HP.
SELF (C): Can regenerate one HP with Life Drain and boost Evasion for 2 turns.
SUPP (F): Nothing whatsoever.
APG (F): Nothing until summoning more allies, which costs a significant amount and flee very easily.

Spoiler: Ranking and general class notes. (click to show/hide)

Champion (21/A): Great physical tank, great AOE and disruption, great frontliner all around.
Ninja-Samurai (21/A): Really good at dealing with enemies in general, plus a Smoke Bomb to help not die.
Elementalist (20/B+): Also great AOE and disruption, but not much in the way of other stuff. Great damage variety.
Wizzard (19/B+): Great AOE debuff, good tanking self buffs, AP generation. Less AOE kill than Elementalist.
Puppet Master (18/B): Really complex class, extremely versatile, needs time and weapons to set up to full potential.
ROBO (18/B): Good start and good abilites all around for various roles. Nice AOE.
Pilotmecha (17/B-): Good attacks and ways to avoid taking damage.
Ültramarine (16/B-): Greatest AOE coupled with damage buffs to disable and potentially wipe even several named units at once. Otherwise nothing much.
Necrolover (16/C+): Great single target abilities, but will take a long while to build up since raised mooks don't restore AP.
GIFTA (15/C+): Generally superior version of Gorgon, good all around but nothing of note.
Faerie (14/C+): Great disruption, good support and self buff, ok single target damage, awful survivability.
Martial Artist (13/C): Great potential that needs a lot of setup to work.
Masterchef (13/C): Super specialized at supporting but party wide healing and damage boosts are great.
Uwu-child (12/C): AP and HP heal is great, especially for all party. Otherwise only self serving.
Sorceror (11/C): Absolutely great buffs, unfortunately no heals.
Zubatman (10/D): Awful class all around like Gorgon.
Numerologist (9/D): Jack of all roles, doesn't do anything that well.
Gorgon (9/D): Mostly atrocious and generally not worth the few disruption and extremely long winded petrification.
Skyranger (9/D): Like Numerologist, does a lot of things but nothing too well.
Noble Blade-Star Crusader (8/D): Crippling overspecialization at it's best, only works with single targets, but can get ridiculous over time.
Sage (7/D): Even more crippling overspecialization, low AP cap, does what Masterchef usually does but worse. Potential for great boss killer combination with multihit classes.

Backstory: Voltaire was the single prototype for a new kind of R.O.B.O designed by the evil Dr. Sleibnitz for the purpose of creating his Perfect World (through extreme violence). The mad roboticist's plans were foiled by HoNK agents and the prototype recovered and put to use in the defense of Nobelia. Dr Sleibnitz himself escaped justice.

Voltaire is a mostly humanoid, large-legged digitrade robot with a large smiley-face screen for a head. His massive arsenal of weapons and tools is either fitted to their arms or can be folded in and out of his torso as necessary. He is coloured in deep blue to have a calming, reassuring impact on bystanders while obliterating the enemy dispensing justice.

Voltaire has not been active for long and is still learning about the world, having spent most of his life prior to HoNK in a robotics lab. He is friendly, inquisitive, and optimistic, but deeply fears upsetting or disappointing people and sometimes prefers to just be alone with his plants. He doesn't need to eat himself, but enjoys practicing culinary destruction for others. As he is getting know the world around him he also spends a lot of time pondering and discovering himself and what he thinks and feels, trying to come to terms with his destructive nature and aligning his new purpose as a guardian with his original programming. He is looking forward to cause massive damage in the name of HoNK, Peace, and Justice.

Nice acronym and nice sheetu.

You're in, scriver!

I first made a sheet for a gyrocopter pilot named Amelia Arnhertz but then I saw the name was already taken by another character (and double naming is a giant no no) so I changed it to Bedalia Arnhertz, but it didn't feel the same (but hey I guess it's good to have a backup). So I started over and made Mr Voltaire (originally Robospierre) today. Anyway I was wondering if robos could consume consumables, but I'll take your not mentioning about that as a yes

You'll just have to be happy I didn't put one of the ones I have to use for (hp restoring with side effect) as a dislike

(Also Ganjalf is a great name)
