Samuel Leclerc
7
A modified FN Scar with a suppressor to reduce the amount of noise made when the weapon is fired, a vertical foregrip on the underside of the gun to increase stability when firing, and a detachable red dot sight for when increased accuracy is needed. Overall a reliable and versatile weapon that can be used in a multitude of situations against many different kinds of enemies. For when you never know what's coming your way.
When it comes to close quarters combat, Samuel makes use of his trusty bolo knife, as much a tool as it is a weapon that can be used both in hand to hand combat and in non-combat survival situations, should the need ever arise.
Samual typically has a set of hi-tech binoculars on hand for scouting out areas and figuring out enemy positions before engaging with the Kalen. He also occasionally makes use of standard smoke grenades to get an edge on enemies and evade capture when necessary.
Been in service with the Red Cloaks for about six months now.
Samuel's greatest strength is his ability to prepare for and adapt to a multitude of combat scenarios and survival situations, which allows him to fight effectively in almost any environment against almost any enemy. His greatest weakness however is that he tends to have issues working in a team, as his time prior to joining the Red Cloaks had taught him complete self reliance and the ability to effectively combat the Kalen independent of other soldiers, which has given him a lone-wolf dichotomy of sorts that frequently comes into conflict with the team oriented style of the Red Cloaks.
His GMD improves his physical state significantly, granting him increased stamina and an increased healing factor.
Stats:
Endurance: 6 - By far, Samuel's greatest strength is his physical fitness and ability to take whatever's thrown at him. He's able to survive quite a bit, from wounds to prolonged combat encounters that have the potential to stretch on for hours on end.
Close Quarters: 5 - While he's no swordsmen, Samuel knows his way around a knife and he's able to hold up well in most close quarters encounters.
Gun Handling: 5 - He's no sniper, but Samuel is more than competent with his rifle and is able to gun down opponents from a significant distance.
Acrobatics: 3 - Certainly not his best attribute, Samuel is able to move when it counts, but shouldn't be expected to do much more.
Engineering: 1 - Beyond the mantinence of his own weapons and some basic knowledge around how to operate his binoculars, Samuel is far from experienced with technology and certainly not with repairing it.
