Team Leviathan
Campaign Name: To Dare Dominion

Team Roster:
1. Alejandro Ilici Sigmaringen (me) - leader, alpha dog, comrade, lover, sybarite extraordinaire, and geralt/dandelion slash author in his spare time. Main weapon is a Widower sub-assault rifle Mk. 1 and a TX Tycho 7 utility sidearm, which has very low recoil and can fire anything from explosive rounds to non-lethal. Cyborg enhancements - eyes, neural net, cardio, muscular, durossification treatments and completely replaced legs from the knee down. When on a mission, can swap normal legs for legs ending in palms with opposable thumbs, kind of like a monkey, for maximum mobility in the environment and fire solutions in any position. Aided by his passive special ability - perfect environmental awareness and gyroscopy. If he points a gun at someone and begins to turn, dodge, perform cartwheels, or anything else, the aim is still on the target. This makes for a foe who’s constantly shooting and on the move, be it floors, walls, ceilings, whatever.

2. Olga Vukavitch – second in command and a sociopath with a fondness for killing people up-close. Main weapons are an impressive set of Neue Krupp steel combat knives and dual wielded machine pistols that feed directly from a magazine she carries in her backpack. Her high rate of fire makes her a “spray and slay” foe in close quarters. Special ability – Schrodinger’s cloak. She can perform automatic subroutines that hack the eyes and ears of every person, robot and surveillance equipment in her vicinity. She can choose to actively project a mass hallucination or to passively alter her own appearance, voice, height, gender to infiltrate a compound. She can maintain the illusion for quite some time as long as her targets don’t run constant mindware sweeps, which they probably won’t be doing in combat unless they suspect something. Her disguise even shows up on digital recordings. In combat, she prefers to use her abilities to get to the rear of the enemy and start slashing from back to front while her allies are keeping them busy. In a support role, she can use a sniper and blend in with the environment, fooling everything except satellites and high altitude planes.

3. Daniel “Dan-O” Thurgood – support specialist and designated team super-hacker. Personality of an otaku turned superhero, he just can’t believe his luck. Was recruited after hacking GoG.com and defacing the entire media archive of the senior staff, turning unveiling ceremonies into orgies and giving the portraits a Hogwarts theme. Rather than have him put to death, the team pulled some strings and recruited and augmented him. He is decent with an assault rifle in combat, but his real strengths lie in fast hacks. Usually, he’s the one that must complete the final leg of an espionage or industrial theft mission. He can make buildings run haywire, robots attack their masters and the toilets to back up. His signature ability is “Horde”, where he forces open the mindware of his opponents and uploads a preprogrammed virtual intelligence that takes control. He can turn up to 30 people against each other, make them act in unison, follow orders, even do synchronized swimming. If he’s alone, he’ll use them as a meat shield and to zerg rush mentally stronger opponents. A bit of a psycho and a bit of an a-hole at the same time. And just one word- underwear fetish, but it’s not for us to judge what he does with his hard earned cash.

4. Tigerlily – a very mysterious team member, keeps to herself (at least that’s what it claims to be) and is, essentially, a brain in a jar. Rumor has it that she crossed GoG.com and is serving penance so that her extended family may live and prosper. When she has repaid her debt, she will be allowed to die. As a brain in a jar she can have a variety of bodies, or remote control some. She is the point man of the team, using a robotic juggernaut to perform crushing assaults with heavy weapons. She prefers to be inside the robot, to avoid it becoming useless if enemies jam the signal and to experience the vicarious thrill of danger. Suicide-by-enemy would be an honorable way out, if she can fool GoG.com. But she’s too good to fool anyone that she had a sudden jolt of incompetence. Other times, she might be piloting the escape craft while remote controlling insect drones that are infiltrating the base and providing assistance to colleagues. When the infiltration is busted her combat chassis would come to the rescue through walls and the bodies of her hapless enemies.

Affiliation with GoG.com : the team is, ostensibly, independent, but for personal reasons they accept jobs only from GoG.com. Also, they are known for working best when given an overarching goal and being allowed to mastermind an entire series of missions, tailored to their strengths.

Their usual M.O. is to use Olga for reconnaissance and as an infiltration assistant for Daniel. All the while, Alejandro starts working interference or making distractions. If things hit the fan, Alejandro delays the reinforcements, while Tigerlily, who is normally in charge of oversight and getaway, performs a bunker busting maneuver to reach the two and take out any threats. They exfil successfully and pick up Alejandro on the way. Most of the times, there is no need for violence unless the mission calls for it, in which case civilian casualties are kept to a minimum.

“To Dare Dominion” is a campaign centered on the takeover of Syberian Syndicate Krasnaya, rich in resources, but low on tech and subtlety. The team will plant evidence of betrayal on a regional boss, use Olga to assume his identity and perform a massacre when called to regional headquarters. Meanwhile, a hit and run by Tigerlily and Alejandro temporarily disables key mining installations, leading to a falling stock market and an appearance of weakness by Krasnaya. Feeding exaggerated info to its closest nieghbours and rivals, a border war starts. GoG.com starts quietly buying shares and propping up regional alliances. The last mission involves an all out attack on Krasnaya headquarters, which will be blamed on internal rivals fighting over whether or not to use nukes against the neighbours. With the executive council dead, GoG.com steps in as the natural arbiter of the dispute and chops up Krasnaya territory and markets, keeping the choicest bits for itself. Rinse and repeat.

Team Name: "C&C: Shallow Operations" (C&C = Costa & Concordia)

Team Leader and lone selfish member: "Captain Francesco S."

Arch Enemy: "D. Falc0" (warcry: GET BACK IN THERE NOW!)

Mission designation: X-COMcordia: TERROR FROM THE DEEP!

Method of operations: Lure the enemy into a giant luxurious ship, sink it and leave the sinking hulk before everyone else does!

mottos:
"FLAWLESS VICTORY! Except for some collateral damage..."
"What? No, I didn't left the vessel...but I wasn't there also! I'm paradox reborn!"
"That million years-old rock wasn't in the charts! I swear!"

Team: The Law Breakers

Team Leader: Earl Harbinger
Close-quarters combat specialist: Vladimir Taltos
Marksman: Garrus Vakarian
Demolition Expert: Delta 62 “Scorch”

Method of Operation: Stealth is everything to the Law Breakers and is considered their main priority next to the actually hit. All units are equipped with cloaking devices and each brings their own specialties into play to the fullest during assassinations and intelligence recovery.

Vlad being the melee weaponry expert is excellent at silently picking off guards one by one.

Garrus is the best shot among the group and takes on the role of sniper and hangs back most missions in a secluded area from the rest of the squad.

Scorch is the go to guy for all things explosive in each mission. Whether it is a distraction of taking out an escaping target’s vehicle, he’s the guy for the job.

Harbinger is the team’s leader and the jack-of-all-trades of the group. If need be he can fill any one of the roles of his team.

The assembly of the team you required is now complete. I have personally chosen individuals for the mission based on their unique records and I am certain you will be most pleased by the summaries I provided below:

Subject: Longinus, T.
Codename: N-Sigma
Specialty: biped vehicle maneuvering, eavesdropping, mass media manipulation, infiltration
Review: The asset was recruited when submitting to a cochlear implant surgery. Our physicians took the liberty of adding a few extra neural processors to his head. Five days after leaving the hospital he felt an inexplicable urge to enlist. N-Sigma is natural born undercover agent having spent most of his earlier years infiltrated in the ranks one of our largest competitors. His efforts are believed to be the main reason our highly benevolent contracts were accepted and signed with them last year. He has a penchant for biped vehicles, but it comes with a difficult to control tendency to step on executives. We are still struggling to resolve this particular problem, but it should pose no threat to this assignment.

Subject: Häyhä, F.
Codename: D-Surgeon
Specialty: sharp shooting, field engineering, quick thinking programmer
Review: She was one of the few to volunteer to our ranks on her own will. Due to the reasons she offered, by her own words,“an excuse to shoot people in the face legally”, we were forced into a complete personality elimination procedure (P.E.P.), though traces of it can still be detected through careful analysis of her mission debriefing logs. She has the highest kill record of any precision shooter we currently have, and a history of inventive workarounds for equipment malfunction during field assignments. On at least one occasion she was able to bypass high level firewalls and access data she wasn't supposed to. This incident, unfortunately, happened inside our own laboratories, demonstrating a severe lack of respect for authority. The data she accessed was the schematic plan for an experimental rifle and she actually added relevant fixes to the still flawed design. This alone saved her from another P.E.P.. I suggest you keep her under extreme dosages of control drugs during field assignments.

Subject: Moardakk, J.
Codename: N-Ork
Specialty: demolitions, heavy weapons, weapon and vehicle repairing, crowd control
Review: He is not to be released in team assignments under any circumstances. This fact can not be stressed enough. N-Ork is the sole product of our failed Orange Clock Initiative and is extremely volatile. He is immune to all known behavior modification drugs. He will resort to violence in any tasks that do not involve weapon or vehicle repairing. He has been successfully deployed to control riots and to face small armies completely alone, though he has committed mass murder in all these instances. Paradoxically he is one of our most ingenious assets, at least 8 different weapons we currently produce and sell are based on concepts extracted from his design of his personal weapon, aptly named “The Solution”, a complex mixture of shotgun, Gatling cannon, Gauss gun and needle gun.

Subject: Not Applicable
Codename: Hattori
Specialty: Olympic level gymnast, genius level programmer, self-healing.
Review: The result of fifteen years of investment in experimental bio-technologies, Hattori is an artificial intelligence built into a biological construct composed of nano-machines that imitate desirable traits in human cells. In all aspects, Hattori is a effectively a super human and no other agent no matter how modified can best him in direct or indirect combat. He is one of a kind, extremely expensive and non-expendable. Should he be lost or destroyed our corporation would probably be bankrupt within a year. Should he be used successfully in this mission, we would be able to secure massive investments and be capable of mass producing agents of his kind within 10 years. You may be interested in knowing that our research teams are currently investigating a method of infusing real humans with the nano-machines allowing them to gradually replace all cells in the human body. Unfortunately, it is highly improbable that the replacement technology will be available on your lifetime.

For the record, I took the liberty of branding this particular team Aleph Quattro, given the sheer amount of resources it represents for our company. Should the mission be a success, I assure you our media departments are already prepared to produce the adequate propaganda to guarantee total control of our new market. Also, I should note that this time we won't make the mistake of trying religious approaches.

Operation Bom Senso should be long lasting, but has a high probability of success. Since our conversion of the United States of America President for our Anti-S.O.P.A. cause, statistics demonstrate that the total conversion of the general world population to the Anti-DRM philosophies of our greater schemes is within reachable grasp.

Good luck, Director, GOG depends on you.

Team Name: Look Into My Eyes

Method of Operation: Pervasive persuasion. See: http://qkme.me/35qx6w
- So your corporation has better agents, huh? Sorry, they've joined our side.
- You have the best scientists? Nope, they've already "volunteered" for our labs.
- Your territory is filled with loyal people? Try again. I've persuaded your entire cities populace (police, agents, and all), given them all guns, and clicked both mouse buttons at the same time. Angry mob doesn't even begin to describe it.

Team Members:
1. Ensign Expendable (For those times when you just need a human shield.)
2. The Invisible Man (If you thought you could just stand behind your walls and wait for me to come within range of your firearms, then consider the sound of the persadertron activated from close range before you even knew someone was there.)
3. Myself (Someone has to collect all the praise for such a brilliant plan. And I enjoy being surrounded by a swarm of persuaded peons.)
4. Hypnotoad - See: http://gifs.gifbin.com/1232904062_hypno%20toad.gif
... ALL HAIL HYPNOTOAD. Yes. That's right discordiac. Look into its eyes. You will provide me with a code for Syndicate. Thank you.

Team Name: Team Rakogis

Team Members:
- Myself (of course - the team leader)
- Spock (because DRM is illogical)
- Howard Schultz (CEO of Starbucks - we all need coffee)
- GOG's French Monk (who else to represent GOG)

In order to support the fight against DRM, and give GOG dominance of the games industry, we will invite executives from ten of the top DRM-supporting game companies to a coffee convention organized by Howard Schultz (because everybody knows how much coffee game developers have to drink - especially when the release date is near). At the convention, we will pull each one aside and Spock will use his Vulcan mind meld to give them a similar emotional feeling towards DRM and GOG that the french monk and I have. Naturally, they will drop DRM from their software immediately, and submit all their games, both old and new, to GOG...and the other companies should soon follow suit.

Of course, we don't expect everybody to follow suit, so we intend to go on the attack against those who do not cooperate. The four of us will work tirelessly, fueled only by coffee provided by Mr. Schultz, and delivery pizza, to find a way to hack the remaining DRM servers. We will reprogram the servers to devote all their resources to endlessly stream a pirated copy of the entire series of "Barney and Friends". This, plus the resulting angry hordes of people complaining about being unable to use their DRM-infected software, should convince them to give in and get rid of their DRM, and go to GOG. If not, the servers will eventually crash, get shut down by SOPA for piracy (if it passes - which I sure hope it doesn't), or the executives will get sick of hearing that "I love you" song sixteen times a day and submit to us. Then, in the midst of the chaos, GOG can buy them out with little problem.

Team Name - The Irony Curtain

Team Leader - Myself.
Simply put - I'm the brains of the whole entire operation. I put the plans together.

Ultimate Goal - To conquer the entire globe by any means necessary.

Method of Operation - Depends on the job. Each has their own set of skills that can be utilized for certain instances and necessities, as listed below...

3 Cyborgs Teammates by their Codenames w/ their Abilities/Method of Operations:


"Data Resource Minimalist" -> The stealth expert and technology/computer "nerd" of the group. When we need to go for stealth and don't want to be seen stealing, robbing, or killing, then this is the one to call.


"Spreader Of Perfect Assemblies" -> The smooth-talker of the group. This cyborg is good at assembling groups and spreading information across wide ranges; whether over the Internet or in person. Always good at convincing people through verbal means, a master of every form of Speech.


"Perfectionist In Pure Aggression" -> The weapons expert of the group. Always direct, never stealthy. pure violence w/ strong brute force: guns; bombs; explosives; melee weapons; and any other weapon you can imagine.

Team Name: MacroStealth

Method: Vision and Imagination to control the minds of man. Build a team that can walk the walk, provide the funding, and have the people willing and able to get the job done.

Team Lead: Bill Gates; he already has experience in runningthis type of originazation. I picked him over Steve Jobs because I feel Jobs may be a better visionary, he uses to much direct management. Gates seems to exhibit better delegation and staff development skills. Building a strong organization with good people will be key, while still having vision and direction

Field Operations Officer: Having just played Deus Ex Human Revolution; I think a fully augmented Adam Jensen would be perfect for this job. Polished enough to handle himself in business situations, but not afraid to do whats needed to get the job done.

Chief Financial Officer and Personel Manager: Donald Trump. Seems to be able to always come back and make that next million. A few extra casinos should keep the crowds happy and provide additional income. An operation of this magnitude will require a healthy bank-roll. Mr Trump is not hesitant to cut the weak links from the chain. This should insure only the people who get results stay in the organization.

Gopher: Myself. Just aligning myself with the winning team.

Team: Heart Attack

Members
Ronald McDonald

Operation
We will spread our rule over the Earth using our already massive influence over the world, after we 'relocate' the real fast food mascots and billionaire. We will slowly advance on Russia, hiring millions of mercenaries and use them to attack China, which will then be turned into a massive army! Anyone that objects will receive a strange ingredient in their burger, or a mysterious computer virus that may just interfere with brainwaves. We will use our ample supply of money to win over many civilians, and soon take down larger countries. With most countries under our rule, America will be the final destination, and with 3/4 of the world as our army, we will not fail.

Team Chuck

Members
Chuck Norris

Thats all you need

Operation
Doing everthing from assinating to blowing stuff up

(This is a joke by the way im not really trying to win it be good if i did =3)

Team: Hell no!

Members:
Satan (the heavy-guns aficionado, shoots first - never ask. Weakness: videogames)
Boris (the lovely con artist, master of the hidden weapons. Weakness: monologues)
D387 (the one with the magic eyesight, uses a shotgun because thinks it's funny. Weakness: lemons)
Mr. Bananapants (the explosive type of guy. Weakness: baths)

Modus operandi:
First the "Banana Bombs" go in, then it's only a matter of time until everything is down. They don't fare well in escort missions, because they tend to make use the escorted guy as a shield.
