a character in “The Multiverse”, as played by Phil_J

Description

Image
Born inside a test tube in space during a war. Next was recruited and trained by an unknown human to explore deep space. Later in Next's life he discovered a marker that infected a ship and changed everything. After all of Next's squad's death, Next went mad and reactivated the ship to fly it into the sun. But before Next flew too close to the sun something strange Sucked him out of his ship and through space.

Another one of Next's capabilities is seeing things for what they truly are, even people.
Physical description: 6ft. 4in. And that's all you need to know unless he reveals otherwise.
Next also wears a special armor that makes him quite a nuisance to kill

Next also has a rechargeable Stasis module: slows down the object that it hits and cannot be used on living objects... Well that's what he was told anyways... I'm sure it could do some damage to people... Or could it have some strange unknown benifite?
As a paranoid space explorer Next carries two weapons:

SWS Motorized Pulse Rifle

The SWS Motorized Pulse Rifle is the first true firearm that is Designed for maximum stopping power, it uses electric coils to accelerate rounds to extremely fast speeds and is a favorite of military troops and security forces on ships around the universe. Primary fire is a rapid fire burst of ammunition, which can be used for long range targets. Secondary fire is a shotgun, allowing you to hit multiple enemies at once and providing excellent crowd control.


211-V Plasma Cutter

A tool designed to use ionized gas and plasma energy to chip pieces off boulders so they'll fit in smelting tubes, the Plasma Cutter is frequently found within the tool boxes of miners across the galaxy. Its primary function allows a short, accurate long range energy blast, while its secondary fire rotates the blade ninety degrees, allowing you to fire vertical or horizontal shots.

So begins...

"A military explorer?" Slater asked. "From where? What nation do you represent?"

Sullivan continued to scribe down notes in regards to the conversation at hand.

"... I was born in space, my superiors have likely been killed off by monsters, and i would like to hear the charges because I don't have many options other than jail right now if you won't believe me. Sorry." He looks at Slater through his cold glowing blue visored you could practically feel the irritation in the room, wether it was from the cops or Next doesn't matter. Someone was getting pissed off.

"This is a waste of time," Slater growled as he stood up. "Have him turned over to immigrations to deal with."

"Yes, sir," Sullivan replied as he gathered up the file from the table and followed Slater out of the interrogation room.

Next leans back in his chair, assuming it wasn't bolted into the ground and kicks his legs up on the desk. Well being shipped off world is better than executed. Let's get this done.

The large transport ship set down less than a mile outside of Lochcrest, and the city could been in the distance separated only by a large expanse of ice. In fact everything as far as the eye could see was coated in ice and snow. When the hangar bay doors on the vessel opened, the air that flooded the ship's interior was both frigid and bone numbing, just a taste of what awaited beyond that threshold.

Many of those being transported out to Cryo appeared to possess little more than the clothes on their backs, a fact that did little to ease the sight that lay before them.

Armed men began to prod and push the passengers out into the open elements of Cryo and slowly one by one the passengers began to make their way down the ramp and out into the harsh environment. Wind whipped at exposed skin and men and women tried to hug their clothes tighter around their bodies as they began the arduous trek towards the city in the distance. There was little other option afforded to them, for they would die if they didn't find shelter. The thin air on Cryo would make the task all the more difficult as the body would rapidly become fatigued when subjected to strenuous physical exertion.

Among those being driven off the transport ship was Next and Everett, both having been stripped of weapons or armor to be cast out to either make their way on Cryo or to die to the elements.

From a distance Chek watched the ship land and disembark it's passengers. He wore his full cold weather gear and had a small supply pack along with a few weapons. He had earned his keep around here it seemed the Mech fights were always in need of an engineer.

But being stuck on this snow globe was getting to the former spy, most knew to steer clear of the landings but it was too inticing for Chek to resist. Of course he had heard rumors specifically about aschen but others as well. He eyed the people who were cast our wondering why they were left to the cold surely if they were slaves their masters would know their worth. But maybe they were here for a different reason. Prisoners perhaps? Chek wasn't entirely sure, he debated on moving closer but decided to remain put until the transport left the area.

A rush of cool wind chilled right through the flannel Everett wore to cover up his skin. How the hell was he supposed to make it out here? What had he done to deserve this? Sure he was in illegal areas, but he had nowhere else to go. Everett frowned. He could see the city in the distance. He felt pathetic, like they even had a chance at living in a place like this. No one in their right mind would take in someone like himself.

Everett looked around trying to spot Next, but there was no one in armor to be found. Next was possibly right in front of him and the half-elf simply couldn't see him because of his lack of armor. Everett trudged hugging his arms, he glared at the ship from behind. He wanted his guitar, something, anything from his home that could offer some sort of comfort, yet all he had were his clothes and the necklace around his neck.

Chek kept low to the ground he was stunned by the amount of people here. He probably could have remained still but he dicided to move closer. Suddenly though more figures appeared most would have thought it a blur or that they were seeing things but Chek knew what teleportation looked like the way the snow was dispersed was a dead giveaway to him.

With this type of stuff he knew the Aschen would be around soon he probably should get out before they show but he decided to move forward he just couldn't leave these people to die. He got up from his prone position and began to walk toward the distant figures. He held his sniper rifle like a machine gun and kept it angled low.

He thought for a moment before he approached further debating on turning back or making contact. He was a bit out of breath as
well do to the thin air. So instead of going further he just waved his hand in the air in attempt of contacting the new arrivals.

Everett just continued his journey with a the few others towards the lights in the distance. He frowned to himself, hugging his arms tighter to his chest. Yep, he'd probably die out here, he was already beginning to convince himself of this, and the idea settled all too easily. Ugh.

Everett pushed a black lock of hair from his eyes.

Next blinks and steps out, glancing back at the guards. "Can I have my rifle?" Chuckles happily and decides to take in all the landscape... It was beautiful out here. Nice, cold, numb, white and plain. This world was beautifully simple. "Whoa..." He loved it here!

The time was now, the rifleman decided, noting that several new targets had wandered into range. Refugees, castaways, those first stepping foot onto the planet - his planet.

With expedient movements, he unfolded his thermal shielding sheet, and pulled it over his body, the reflective elements trapping heat inside the little shelter, allowing him to hide from thermal censors with greater ease. All that one could see from the distance the refugees, castaways, and other varying new arrivals to Cryo were standing was snowy white mountains and jagged peaks.

Not the danger that lurked there.

With a whisper of a noise, the rifle was cocked again, and a twitch of a finger set it to automatic fire. He targeted six shapes in the distance, and squeezed the trigger, holding it down as the rifle kicked repeatedly against his shoulder, rapid explosions sounding over the snowy landscape.

---

An older man grunted at Next's spoken love of the planet they found themselves on, his leathery face spreading into a grin as he took it all in.

"Me too, lad," he said. "It's kind of hauntingly beautifu-"

The man suddenly jerked forwards as blood lanced from his torso to the crisp white snow, staining it crimson as he staggered. His head suddenly snapped downwards, a hole appearing in a split second, exposing brain tissue and bone as he flopped to the snowy floor, lifeless.

Explosions echoed out as more men and women fresh from the transport fell to the ground, screaming out in agony and shock as the unknown gunman continued to fire, determined to thin their numbers.

The figure appeared to be coming closer and closer, until another gunshot was fired and suddenly, Maya gasped and snuggled further back into her small, dug out hole. The figure took the shape of a man who appeared just as confused as she was.

Her breaths became heavy yet quick; not the best combination for this kind of place. "Who are you and what do you want?" she asked, despite his apparent circumstance. She fumbled with her dress and made sure it was wrapped around tight on her. Her skin had gone completely white, and within minutes began to hint purple hues. Suddenly she didn't care so much about him or what he was going to do to her--her heart felt like it was slowing, her breaths becoming lighter. Her hand reached her moon necklace again, the metal combined with her skin creating a small source of heat, turning an orange color.

Chek looked at her shocked the he ended up in the hastily dug hole. "I'n ah Chek um I was checking out what that ship was doing here when someone started shooting." He knew it must have looked very suspicious that he had his own sniper rifle but as shots still seemed to be being fired it was clearly impossible for him to be a single shooter.

He looked at her necklace as it began to glow. "That ah might not be the best idea he probably is using a thermal scope visibility so your going to make yourself a big target." He said Chek began to think over the situation if there was a shooter it was going to be damned near impossible to find him.

Next yelped in surprise and just dove into the snow, trying not to get shot... That would be terribly painful.

Everett watched the man drop to the ground, a look of fear quickly spreading across his even paler than normal face. He could no longer feel his feet. He looked up to find the source of the shot.
