Gamma; additional member of the team for unspecified purposes, primarily classed as a Non-Specialist Member.

"What you see is what you get, but what you see isnât always what your brain gets told.â
Gamma is a girl of 4â 9â weighing about 110lbs with reasonably short brown/black hair with hazel coloured eyes.
Out of armour she tends to wear simply overalls with a black tank top, and has a habit of absentmindedly having one strap hanging down by her side while working and keeps her hair wrapped in a thin bandana.
In armour she tends to wear a formfitting armoured bodyglove with an addition suit fitted over the top made of several tough sections locked together to form a hardwearing Carapace with several of the more bulky plates linked to the main suit with a mesh-weave between the two to help enable a more agile movement in the carapace armour itself, and if needed allow for these sections to be removed in combat situations for an even greater level of mobility at a cost to durability.
The bodyglove that she wears is enough armour in itself that it can be worn under civilian clothing without much difficulty in a similar way to a protective armoured vest that instead covers her from neck to feet.

"There is no problem that cannot be solved by the use of high explosives.â
Her main weapon is an ASIT heavy assault rifle with an under-slung shotgun or grenade launcher attachment, both of which she keeps with her should the need arise for a change. The rifle itself is capable of single shot, semi-auto and full-auto firing sequences and is fitted with several different loaders for alternate situations, as well as allowing for addition loaders to be switched out with fresh ammo or different ammo. This ammo ranges from armour piercing, toxic rounds to infect wounds and stop them closing, incendiary rounds to ignite living tissue on contact, explosive rounds to cause maximum damage and Tempest ASIT rounds which are designed to overload and mangle any mechanical or electrical system. The rifle itself is fitted to hole three specialist loaders of minimal ammo and a primary loader of main ammo.
Her assault rifle is fitted with a custom built scope that incorporates several features allowing for her to focus up to 150m in precise detail, as well as displaying this feed in heat sense, mainly tracking heart rate of living targets and allows for a laser dot to be painted onto a designated target at will and are able to display range read-outs of targets for better aim.
She also carries several handfuls of grenades, mines and other explosive compounds in her satchels ranging from anti-personnel to anti-armour. Each of these grenades has an optional mag-lock a well as timers that can be enabled or disabled remotely via the device built into her wrist.
Strapped to her back between her clusters of mines and grenades is a long, straight sword with a faint curve to the cutting edge of the blade. Itâs made of carefully wrought and tempered steel set into place within a titanium handle, coated in rubber to protect against any electrical discharge through the metal. A smaller blade is slotted and sheathed at her right side as well as pair auto-pistols.
She has a set of goggles which usually wind up resting over her forehead when not in use, which differ from the above sights as they are not effective for long range. They are designed to detect heat sources and are also photo reactive to dampen the blinding effects of flash-bang grenades and the like.
A Gravity-Harness is incorporated into her armour to allow a slight displacement field which lasts for roughly ten minutes full burst or can be limited down to several bursts of smaller intervals. It is designed to slow descent from heights in order to minimise fall damage.
Augmentation
Gamma is equipped with several rather simplistic subdural augmentations which act in two ways, the first being a thin but incredibly durable layer of armour beneath the skin to protect from arms fire but primarily from blunt weapon trauma. The second is that when the layer of armour was implanted beneath the skin several of her muscle groups were enhanced with the synthetic grafts which offered addition strength to her limbs, allowing for a slightly enhanced level of strength and reaction time.
After an incident involving {CLASSIFIED} Gammaâs left eye and entire optical nerve was replaced with augmented material to allow her full use of the sense again and to counter the newly acquired imbalance caused by said incident, and is capable of basic monitoring of the Electromagnetic Spectrum and is viewed primarily in monochrome. The eye itself is indistinguishable from a living model save for the slightly unusually widening of the iris.
Her Right arm from elbow down was replaced with a high-tech augmented prosthetic which allowed her to fit a PDA mainframe where her Radius bone would have been located. This device allows for her to control and arm her grenades as well as giving her access to virtual data readouts and map interface. Due to the modification with her optical nerve she has several re-routed nerve clusters which were replaced with augmentation that allow her PDA to feed directly into her cerebral cortex and can display itâs imagery for her alone to see, but the device itself can also change the output to be visible in most forms of the Electromagnetic spectrum for her team-mates if necessary.
Married their high school boyfriends
Moved into houses in the same ZIP codes
Where their parents live
But I, I could never follow
No I, I could never follow
I hit the highway in a pink RV with stars on the ceiling
Lived like a gypsy
Six strong hands on the steering wheel
I've been a long time gone now
Maybe someday, someday I'm gonna settle down
But I've always found my way somehow
By taking the long way
Taking the long way around
Taking the long way
Taking the long way around
I met the queen of whatever
Drank with the Irish and smoked with the hippies
Moved with the shakers
Wouldn't kiss all the asses that they told me to
No I, I could never follow
No I, I could never follow
It's been two long years now
Since the top of the world came crashing down
And I'm getting' it back on the road now
But I'm taking the long way
Taking the long way around
I'm taking the long way
Taking the long way around
The long
The long way around
Well, I fought with a stranger and I met myself
I opened my mouth and I heard myself
It can get pretty lonely when you show yourself
Guess I could have made it easier on myself
But I, I could never follow
No I, I could never follow
Well, I never seem to do it like anybody else
Maybe someday, someday I'm gonna settle down
If you ever want to find me I can still be found
Taking the long way
Taking the long way around
Taking the long way
Taking the long way around
