Cipher

Return to The Headquarters  

Creator: Leya
Roleplay: The Headquarters
Nickname: Leo

Sit down. I'm Commander Furia, head of HQ. If you get this job, you'll take orders from me. Understood?

Your Response: Understood, Commander.

Hmm. Closer to the microphone. State your name for the record.

Your Name: Leo Morrison, Commander.

Okay. First mistake of this job. We don't use our actual names here. Give me an alias.

Your Alias: Oh uh... my colleagues call me Cipher. So I'll go with that

Really? That's the best you can come up with? No, no, we're moving forward. What makes you qualified for this job?

Your Abilities: Hacking and Explosive Expertise
Strengths: I'm pretty good at hacking, and anything technology related. Need me to disable technology? I'm your guy. Need me to hack into enemy servers? Even better. I'm also really calm under pressure. I'm good at being stealthy so I don't get seen. I'm pretty good at blowing things up, too. But don't tell anyone that or I'll get looked at as a terrorist.
Weaknesses: I don't like mentioning my weaknesses, but I do struggle with teamwork... sometimes. I can also be somewhat impulsive, which honestly might not be a bad thing? I don't like social interactions, I can get quite awkward. I also get told that I don't have the best patience-- especially when it comes to the task at hand. I also hate getting wet.

Hmm. Okay, so what are you planning on wearing to the battlefield? Nothing ridiculous. I'm not going to waste my resources on a flashy suit just for you to die on the first mission.

Your Appearance: I'm pretty slim, average height, as you can see. I wear a reinforced tactical suit with integrated tech tools and a visor with an augmented reality display. Boots. A mask to cover my face, usually. Simple things that could come in handy, ya'know.

We'll smooth out the details later. Good enough. Now to the nitty gritty. I need to know that you'll be compatible with the other members. I also need to know that you know yourself enough to reveal all aspects of your personality, even the not so good.

Your Personality: I'm pretty analytical and resourceful and I'm quiet and reserved. I like to think I'm highly intelligent but I'm often impatient with others that don't understand technology as well as I do.
Strengths: Quick thinker, calm under pressure, innovative.
Weaknesses: I can sometimes be aloof and distant. I can also become obsessive when working on a problem and won't budge until it's solved. I'm also extremely OCD and like organization-- without it I can struggle.

We'll learn soon enough if what you said is the truth. Now. Tell me about your past. This is vital information, so try not to leave out details. Anything incriminating especially. I need to know if I have to do more paperwork to get you hired.

Your Age: 28
Your Gender & Pronouns: Male, he/him
Your History: I grew up in a tech savvy family. I worked as a freelance hacker for years before being recruited by te military for my skills in cybersecurity and explosives. Participated in many covert operations, gaining reputation for my expertise but also my disregard for authority. Not a big fan of getting told what to do, in all honesty. I like to work alone, but I decided to apply for this because I'm trying to widen my horizons and get used to working on a team.
Personal Secret: I once hacked into a government database for personal reasons, and accidently left behind traces. If I get caught, it could be the end of my career.
Personal Wish: To find a place I truly belong where I don't get looked at as a destructive person-- I want to be useful for a cause I believe in.

I really did not need to know your hopes and aspirations, but thank you for that knowledge. Before we leave, do you have any questions for us?

Other: Just one question-- what's our backup plan if Splinter manages to breach the launch platform's defenses?
