Name: Vizkop
Age: 75
Position/Rank: Mechanicus Liaison

Spoiler: Appearance: (roll with me here and assume the iconography is mechanicus 

Personality: Amiable, clear-headed, cool under pressure. Just a few things to describe Vizkop.

Weapons: He carries two primary weapons. One is a custom designed stub pistol with an integrated silencer and the other is a large bore stub revolver meant to take down armored targets. He also has a pair of hidden blades integrated into his arms that include power fields.
Other: Under his robes, he wears an armored body glove for protection.
In addition to standard Mechanicus implants, both Vizkop's arms are bionic as are his legs, ribs, and spine. His hearing and sight have also been enhanced through cybernetics.

Background: A last minute addition to the team to act as liaison between the Inquisition and the Explorator team.

Hope this is to your liking and I'm not being overly secretive.

@ Jarms - Remus ae? No relation of the rogue trader von Remus from Damnatus by any chance?

Julianus will be a member of Sidonis' stormtrooper contingent, Task Force Carbon, with his immediate superiors being lieutenant Yvonne Kepler and major Kadath Al-Omar. As TFC doesn't often work directly with field agents, he will have only met the other characters for the first time when they were dispatched to Venatora a couple of weeks ago.

@ Atrum - Probably accepted, pending a couple of PM questions. EDIT - Accepted.

You know that went right over my head, I just liked the sound of the name. I suppose you could say Julianuses(?) back story could hint at a possibility, but alas he was born on the First.

Name: Kally Sonder

Age: 33

Occupation: Psyker countermeasure/ frontline investigator

Personality: Kally is emotionally battered. For the past six months she has, as one of the sole survivors of the Pembroke cases ground zero, been kept in solitary confinement and been subjected to low to mid grade interrogation under Lord Sidonis direct orders. The fallout of the Pembroke incident casts a long shadow over the soul of Kally, who is still bitter, morose and withdrawn, given to caustic remarks and deliberately antagonizing her team mates.

Appearance: Kally is still an athletic 5ft 6 inches with a hivers palour, with dark brown eyes. Her old dyed hair is almost gone, with only the tips a vibrant purple while the rest of her hair is a pale sandy colour, and she wears it long in a pony tail. She has a scar running round her left eye too her cheek from a glancing sword blow, and a few more on her body that aren't readily visible. The deepest scars are undoubtedly in her mind, however.

Powers: Kally as a psychic blank is immune to all psychic powers aimed directly at her. For example, a psyker could not telekinetically crush her, but he could telekinetically throw a crate at her. With access to Inquisitorial training techniques and a device known as a amplification harness, she can focus her ability into a will draining effect that can paralyse psykers in fear and send normal men running scared. The harness also replaces her collar, allowing her to use it to reflexively dampen her powers in pleasant company. Since her experiences in Hive Makita (and possibly because of her experiences in Hive Makita) her psychic blank abilities have strengthened considerably. While not as dangerous as a Culexus Assassin with an animus speculum, she is still regarded by most psykers in Sidonis employ as less a soulless abomination, more a walking anti psyker apocalypse.

Equipment:
Note: all of Kallys previous load out was destroyed in the Makita incident. Anything not lost was deemed ‘contaminated’ and following inquisitorial protocol 117/Delta, was confiscated for investigation and destruction.

+ Scourge Pattern Boltgun: a heavily modified Boltgun with a 3 clip fire selector, scope, and integral retractable bayonet. Its generally loaded with stalker sniper rounds (low velocity penetrators designed for quiet firing) hellfire rounds and psycannon rounds. A heavy, nasty, maintenance intensive brute of a weapon, the only reason Kally carries it is its raw stopping power, excellent accuracy over long distances and formidable profile: few people want to mess with someone carrying one of these.

+ Reinforced Military body glove. Kallys old dependable flak has been ditched in favour of a composite mil-spec suit generally issued to Storm troopers and similar specialists travelling light. The rubberised mesh weave is good for keeping out light arms and impacts, and is reinforced with light carapace plates over the chest, abdomen, shins, thighs, and upper and lower arms. A folded hood can be deployed for additional protection, but Kally generally doesn’t bother. The main benefit with this suit is that with the plates stripped out, the suit becomes light enough to be worn under appropriate civilian clothes. Generally, Kally stomps around with this suit and an overcoat.

+ Redeemer pattern Chain sword: this short, wide bladed weapon is very handy in tight spaces and well earned its unofficial moniker of 'ripper'.

+Two paired ‘steel burner’ laspistols, two cadian short combat knives.

+Underhive survival kit
Consisting of flugs, photovisor contacts, grapnel and carbon-line, grip gloves, glow sticks, rad patch and a few doses of stimms, detox, Kalma and common antivenoms.


Background
++SEALED UNDER INQUISITORIAL REMIT++
What everyone knows about Kally Sonder is the following: The woman is cursed, either to good luck or bad, and this is her first mission under Immanual Sidonis. Rumours fly that she was saved from the ruins of Makita Hive, and that she nearly killed several interrogators upon being revived for questioning. From that point on, rumors say, her hostility and blank nature made her the most difficult of witnesses following the Pembroke incident and one of the last people to be judged in relation to it. Rumor also has it that someone vouched for her, perhaps several people, and this mission represents a chance for her to redeem herself in the eyes of the Inquisition.

Accepted, Dakkagor!

Rumor also has it that someone vouched for her, perhaps several people.

Interesting you should mention that; I was thinking that Marc might have argued her case in return for sticking her neck out for him at Holland's, and not told her because of his less-than-stellar record for explaining himself...

[Atrum Daemon]

I just realized I should probably add in Vizkop's bionic enhancements to his actual profile.

Aw was hoping I could go chaos in this one
Anyway I'll have a CS up soon hopefully.
