Background

The Year is considered to be 13 After Asteroid Impact {AAI}.

13 years ago a smaller asteroid landed in the middle of the African savanah. Its arrival in the now resource starved planet triggered a massive war. One that is know to many as "The War of the Rock".

Many Alliances were broken, made, and broken again in the course of this conflict. Leaving a horrible political and bloody mess.

It wasn't until an self hired Mercenary Organization called "WILLOW" took control of the site, and began its research, that it was found that the asteroid was of little resource value.

This discovery resulted in major political backlash on the participating countries, as the grieving survivors of the men and women lost during the war learned and believed that their loved ones had died in "political pissing match". This resulted in many Mercenary organizations standing up to say that they could do the job, for a nominal fee of course, and with them there would be less political backlash as they are considered "Expendable"

When these organization took over they began to develop new weapons as force multipliers. These weapons made the armored vehicles of even the most modern army obsolete overnight.

Major NPC's

Toni X. -The founder of VKTHSU She is considered the last sane surviving member of their namesake special forces unit. The SF Unit was known for their refusal to accept defeat in any way shape or form. The V.K.T.H.S.U. SF Unit was notorius for DEEP cover operations, and suicide tactics. A very small handful of the original members returned before their unit dissolved.

Lina -The CFO of the VKTHSU, A former Office Worker for the Tokyo Marui Company. Was later fired for "Gross Isubordination" when in fact she struck back at her manager after a moment of sexual harassment. Bounced from job to job via Temp Agency until she too a job as an acquisitions officer at the Japan office. Her hard work was noticed by Toni and hired her on as an accountant. She quickly built up a reputation as a hard worker and as one with a good brain for finances. however every so often she gets pulled to work as a payclerk much to her charigin.

Lin -Is an ex-navy petty officer that had been "force shaped" due to him being redundant. He served as an SH-1 on one of the last Ford Class Carriers. His experience as an administrator and his history as a military member made him a prime candidate as one of the Finance Officers for the VKTHSU Corp.

SCIENCE!!

Zohtirum: One of the most highly sought after elements to date. Believed by many to be the perfect fuel, others see a weapon.

Zz, as is its symbol, is a Very large, very dense, only mildly radioactive, producing Beta Radiation instead of killing everything with gamma. When the Atom is introduced to an H20 molecule begins to desintegrate, releasing large amounts of photonic and thermal radiation. It continues to break down until all that remains is either H20, O2 or H2. if one were to drop a marble sized chunk of pure Zz into a glass of water the heat produced would rival any large scale nuclear reactor, and if it was sealed in an airtight container measuring .25m cubed its heat would trigger a hydrogen fusion reaction. this ability has made it very desirable to many groups looking for fuel sources. However its rarity has made it increadbly hard to find on earth. How ever a recent probe landing mission to the moon detected a large vein of it in a crater in the "sea of traquilty" Knowing this, many governments were very eager to claim the original meterorite in the "'War of the Rock'" -

Hydrogen Farming:

Currently the most second most popular fuel in the world is bio-disel. The first is Hydrogen, and currently a new wave of farmer as emerged. These farmers grow a specific specie of algee that exhales hydrogen gas. This, in its dispered greenhouses is filtered out and stored in heavily reienforced fuel tanks that are trucked and shipped around the world to refueling stations. due to the immense amount of space and specialized equipment required to produce one liter of hydrogen a day, its not very wise to attempt to grow your own 'fuel algee'. -

The Weapons

The new weapons were commonly called "Mechs" though this created the image of giant cyborgs and crazy laser weapons. This was far from the truth. They were simply much larger and walking tanks. Some groups still called them Mechs, but most cosidered them to be RCAV's. [Ranged Combat Armored Vehicles]. They are designed to be modular so that a single squad, could be provided, and outfitted with the newest weapons as soon as they became availible, and to be able to re-outfit them to better suit their RCAV's to an upcomming battle, without having to bring a plethora of minor variants.

Explanations of Numbers
A 'naked' RCAV has 4.999 “health”. Each armor kit doubles the “Health”
The damage points are dependent on direct hits
A near miss or “splash” does half damage

"Charlie"

Name: A.C.
Callsign: Charlie
Age: 55
Sex: Female
Hair: Bald
Eyes: Left one Blue, right one a lens.
Build: Short and broad, both legs being prostheses from midway down the thighs. Right cheekbone, eye and parts of the forehead been replaced with metal/plastic/glass prosthesis. Long chain of mixed Ethnicities result in a brownish tan with slight almost eyes and blue eyes...
Personality: Unfazable. Got a very subtle sense of humor, rarely laughs or smiles. Her actions are mostly dictated by necessity and common sense. Though she will avoid civilian causalities under all cost. Her voice almost always sounds tired/bored. Her hobby is to write Doctor exams via Tele-college.
Education level: Doctor of Philosophy, Doctor of Canon and Civil Law, Doctor of Literature. She's not a Genius, just knows a few good tricks to memorize Data and then spent a lot of time on writing good Exams... Quote: "It's like Sudoku" Family: Husband, Son and Twin Daughters. Deceased.
How/why they were recruited: Like the Sarge, A.C. got forced to retire from the regular military after the War of Rocks. However for her it was monetary reasons to join the Corporation soon after.
Background: A.C. was in her early twenties when just another small war broke out, and she and her young family were 'tragic causalities' no one cared about. A.C. herself was lucky and survived, albeit heavily maimed. She never actually told 'why' she joined the military, and the military never asked since the prostheses were good enough to allow her in... also they lacked manpower. After starting out as simple gunner, she ended up an excellent fire control officer on a large Warship, earned a few medals, too, in the War of Rocks, which she survive completely untraumatized. She never got the ambition to become ranking officer, but her seniority allows her a few things the young guns aren't allowed. On top, the Sarge does not insist quite as vehemently on respect from A.C.
No one ever found out what A.C. Means. Even in the files she is just A.C.
