Fred worked as a dispatcher and then got involved in a drug bust due to being in the right place at the right time.

Sarah...Well Sarah got a job as a waitress, promptly picked a fight with a neighboring restaurant and started the riot that Joy stopped. She has been banished to the corner to think about her life, and her income seized.

1D100 => 99

"Sarah,it's your condition." You asked looking at the X-ray. "If I'm seeing this right...alright I have no idea what I'm seeing."

Sarah looked at the chemical test and pointed it out. "See that bit right there, that is the same composition of natural rubber, but because of the human bodies natural healing potential...it's been rendered refined and malleable."

"That doesn't make sense." You noted. Sarah ignored you. "Ahh, what they were working on was a mutagen not a chemical weapon… okay partly, they were still working on a chemical weapon."

Sarah then closed her eyes for a moment. "And its permanent this is wonderful...Now...Logan shot me in the gut."

"What!!" You screamed. "Hell no!!"

Sarah frowned and then pulled her cheek and then let it snap back to normal, "If you don't do it I will. With a shotgun."

You replied and shot her...it didn't pierce her skin. "Ahh, but I can guess higher calibers would pierce the skin layer, It's about half as thick as kevlar, 7.62 would go right through it."

You blinked "Sarah, don't make me do that again."

"Oh don't worry test subject...I still need your money and lab before I do the next phase of my plans."

Wait why would she need… you know enough about comic book supervillains to know where this is going.

Reward:John is...a complete normal. That is the strangest thing you have ever experienced.

Disaster roll:
1D100 => 97

"So..this upstart is planning to take this island from us." The Elder Cartel boss said as he read the report.

"Yes Sir...we've sent men to eliminate him and his compatriots." The Junior man said.

"No..belay that order, just watch them, if he tries anything then we shall strike...our situation in South America is still rocky, with the American's beating their chest at their recent victories and now this Mercier." Santiago said calmly.

"Hmm Call the Triads, they have an old associate of his in their employ, a similar man to himself what was his name again."

" He calls himself "Vicious" Like the anime character, we know not of his real name but he was of similar background to Mr. Mercier, An American CIA operative with Taskforce Odinson, He later defected to the Chinese during the war following Mr. Mercier's falsified death in the Bangladesh as part of Operation Wrath of Man." The Younger man stated.

Santiago nodded. "Currently...He's an enforcer in Machu if I'm not mistaken or Hong Kong...he lives up to his old codename well. He slaughtered a platoon of MP's in a single night and blamed it on the rival triads. Hence the Black Dragons control of the northern Triangle."

The younger man looked at Santiago. "Shall I give Mr. Hoshi a call?"

"Do so...but observations only, his price tag is expensive." Santiago said.

Reward: Cartels are now aware of your location and actions tread cautiously for the next two turns.

You knew this guy was reliable, having kept you supplied even after you had been forced to fake your own death as part of the plan.

"So how did you find me." You asked quietly readying your handgun.

"I followed your bank account Logan...I heard you're in need of some, shall we say persuasive firepower for an errand of sorts."

"You could say that…"

The Broken Man from the West.
The Broken Man from the West.

(Logan POV)

You were not a hero...hell in the most rational and sane sense of the word, you'd be the villain.

Wrath of God. The worst decision of your life was taking that mission, It was all about ending a front of a war and ending the war in the middle east. On paper it was the noblest sounding thing ever. So you took it.

It was the placing and destination of a Neutron bomb in a turkish military perimeter, they were going to attack Israel, and the IDF was preoccupied kicking Egypts ass again, and were going to get creamed if something wasn't done.

So you planted the bomb and got as far away as possible. Now it wasn't a regular old atomic or hydrogen bomb...it was a neutron bomb, the kind that kills life without damaging the surroundings.

When it detonated it killed 5 million people, you were eating a donut as millions of people died in agony.

Now most people would have a feeling of denial or bartering. But you were different...when they asked you about it here was what you said.

"You know most mass murderers, delude themselves with grandeur or promises of the greater good, I'm different...if you want to know how I feel about snuffing out over 5 million people...I don't feel a goddamn thing for the people I just murdered, not a damn thing."-Logan's report to the CIA.

And you were right, even after all these years, you still feel nothing for all the death and misery you caused to the world, you never had any reason too, the faces never haunted your dreams.

Maybe you were a monster...or maybe you were just Human.

You didn't know witch one was worse.

AN: A little look into Logan's past.

@Marlin any chance I can convince you to switch over to Plan: School shooter
You too can be an edgy 14 year-old with a semiautomatic rifle today!
The plan also buys both melee weapons for extra edge (and you know as a backup weapon if you into logical explanations and that sort of thing).

[X] Plan: School shooter
trench knives have different model sizes and whilst some are exceptionally large, most others aren't that big. some in fact are practically stilletos with knucledusters attached. they were designed in order to fight in extremely close quarters with almost no room to swing or move (trenches...derp :p) so they actually tend to be on the small size
machete's on the other hand have to have a certain amount of bulk as they are mostly bush tools and need the weight.
so having a big real knoife as a backup is still believable to me.

on a less serious note, how many belts do you think we can get him to wear? i'm thinking 47.
