C - FILES



SALVAGE FILE # CG1 NOV 98

     This is a compilation from memory of the knowledge I've gained since starting the C-Files.

     All previous files that I had made have been destroyed by those who wish to prevent me from going through with my plans.  I had found, from an unknown source, that clones of myself had been created from DNA samples acquired shortly after my birth.

     In a large, unmarked envelope that was somehow placed in my house without my knowing, I found photographs, addresses, and a note that said, in summary, clones of myself had been made, and that I had to bring them together in order to save humanity from a "great evil", but before I approached any of them, I first had to locate all of them.

     It said that there had been six clones created, but only four had previously been identified.  The note ended with an imperative BE CAREFUL, but I had no idea that anything I did would come to this.

     At the moment I am on the run from this "great evil" that I still know nothing about except that it is very resourceful and desperately wants to prevent me from completing my mission.  I'm making this file not only for my own benefit, but in the event that I should meet my end, someone somewhere may be able to complete my task.

     I know that the chances of anyone taking over are highly unlikely, but there are a few trusted friends that are willing to continue in my place.  The unlikely part is them getting this file before it is intercepted.

     Project War Party was started to create an elite group of soldiers to fight for the U.S., but the project was unsanctioned by the government and was not to be revealed until it was found successful.

     Each of the six clones were separately raised, some altered on a genetic level, and each were trained in the way their particular trainers thought was best.  Their training began as soon as possible when they were still young, but before they reached age seventeen, the project fell through because of the unknown people who wished to prevent their success.

     Each clone went about their own way, never knowing they were a clone.  Some of the clones continued training on their own while others just maintained their level, but all were raised with a sense of basic goodness; however, each took to their own training differently.

     Each are a lot alike, yet they are different.  For security purposes I cannot include specific addresses.



FILE # 389911

NAME: Pony
BASE OF OPERATIONS: None (nomadic)
GENERAL ABILITIES: Various forms of martial arts, sword, fire arms
SPECIAL ABILITIES: None

     Pony travels from state to state on a Harley Davidson, with no serial number, doing general good wherever he can.  Though not a special ability, he usually finds someone in need of his assistance whenever he makes a stop for more than a few days.  He is highly skilled with a sword and carries one in his long coat or sleep roll on the back of his motorcycle.

     He can use various forms of firearms, but his preference is a sawed off shotgun, which he also carries on his cycle.  He prefers to not use firearms at all, but finds that some situations seem to call for one.  Though he refuses to ever kill another person, he is not opposed to wounding.

     He was last seen in New Orleans during Mardi Gras, which he never misses.  Despite his nomadic lifestyle, his deeds but not his face often wind up in the media and can be identified by someone knowing what to look for.



FILE # 389912

NAME: Unknown
BASE OF OPERATIONS: New York, New York
GENERAL ABILITIES: Various forms of martial arts, sword
SPECIAL ABILITIES: None

     His name has never been known, but it is rumored that he calls himself Blade. He works very secretly, hiring himself out to those who can pay the price for the use of his talents for non-evil purposes.

     He has exceptional ability in the use of bladed weapons, particularly swords of any type. He is opposed to killing other people, but has in some cases.

     He refuses to use firearms except as a last resort. His base of operations is his apartment, and though he can never be found while away on a job, he has a male partner who takes care of things at home and often works as his secretary.



FILE # 389913

NAME: Deathgrip
BASE OF OPERATIONS: Los Angeles, California
GENERAL ABILITIES: Martial arts, firearms
SPECIAL ABILITIES: Mechanical arm, enhanced overall strength

     Deathgrip's right arm up to the shoulder is a weapon in itself, made with technology unknown even to the government.  The arm is shaped like his normal arm, is bullet proof, and though I do not know its maximum strength, I have seen the hand crush a lead pipe as if it were paper.

     Among the many features of the arm is the ability to extend small blades from each fingertip, the top of the wrist, and from both the upper and lower arm at the elbow.  The hand can also be used as a grappling hook capable of being fired from the wrist and is connected to the arm by a long, thin, but very high tensile strength cable which also allows the arm to serve as a wench.  The arm is bio-technilogical and is controlled as a normal arm by nerve impulses from the brain.

     Deathgrip works as a bodyguard for one of the men who gave him the arm after his original was accidentally severed.  In his off time, he does any heroic deeds that he feels interested in doing, if any at all.  You might say it's a hobby for him.

     His overall body strength is enhanced on genetic level as an experiment; though highly muscular anyway, he is twice as strong as one is lead to believe by looking at him.  He is also capable of locking the fingers of his normal hand at will, in effect using it as a vice often for grabbing people's heads or necks or whatever body part he chooses to grab.

     He chooses not to kill, but is not opposed to, and in some cases enjoys, causing injuries.  He has minor experience in martial arts and average experience in common firearms.  He carries a registered .45, but uses it only when absolutely necessary.



FILE # 389914

NAME: Unknown
BASE OF OPERATIONS: Unknown
GENERAL ABILITIES: Various forms of martial arts, sword, hand projectiles, firearms, explosives
SPECIAL ABILITIES: Teleportation

     He is right out of a comic book.  Something had happen on a genetic level before or during the early stages of his growth.  By some freak accident, he developed the ability to create teleportals at will.  He is capable of opening a portal in mid space or having one "grow" around himself or another object.

     He has extensive training in martial arts, using bladed weapons, various firearms, and various throwing weapons.  He also has a vast knowledge of explosives, but does not use them as a weapon unless absolutely necessary.  His weapon of choice is a katana and carries a boot knife.  He chooses to not kill, but is not opposed to causing injury.

     He is affiliated with a very secret group who call themselves The Liberators and are sort of free-lance freedom fighters who seem to not use names.  I have never seen any of this group outside of his company.  Though not a base of operations, he holds a residence in Houston, Texas under the alias Telly Porter.  He apparently has a sense of humor.



FILE # 389915

NAME: Primal Weapon
BASE OF OPERATIONS: None (nomadic)
GENERAL ABILITIES: Martial arts
SPECIAL ABILITIES: Toughened skin, teeth, and nails; enhanced senses and instincts; temporary mentally enhanced over all body strength

     He was the result of an unsuccessful genetic experiment.  His skin, teeth, and nails are five times normal strength, and his hair and nails grow twice as fast as normal.  His teeth are more serrated, and he has what could be considered small fangs.

     His five senses are usually three times normal, but when he concentrates, he can increase them to five times normal.  His enhanced instincts are very animalistic, and when provoked excessively, he goes into a rage and becomes even more dangerous than when in a normal state of mind.

     He did not take too kindly to his training.  Possibly due to his animal qualities, he refused to have anything to do with firearms or explosives, and trained only a very short time with bladed weapons.  He did however accept his martial arts training, but not as successfully as the others due to his temper.

     When he becomes enraged, his over all body strength increases by two; his strength varies in relation to his anger.  He is without a doubt the most dangerous of them all if all were unarmed.

     Instead of becoming a veritable hero like the others, he desired nothing but a normal life, or as normal as he could find.  He travels in a Jeep Renegade with no serial number from state to state under the adopted name, Gabriel Cross, trying to find a place to settle, but always seems to find trouble instead.

     He does not like to kill, but when he is raged, he sometimes looses control.  To my knowledge he has killed three people, but the police have never found him because, as far as the government is concerned, he does not exist.  He continues his martial arts training on his own in an attempt to gain control of his rage.



FILE # 389916

NAME: Hacker
BASE OF OPERATIONS: Miami, Florida; Honolulu, Hawaii; Manhattan, New York; Las Vegas, Nevada
GENERAL ABILITIES: Martial arts, firearms, explosives, computers
SPECIAL ABILITIES: None

     He dropped the name Hacker when he left the project, and adopted the name Richard Andrew Morris, or in other words, RAM.  In the network he calls himself Aries.

     He was trained extensively in computers and electronics, and has average training in martial arts, firearms, and explosives.  He now is probably one of, if not the best hacker alive.

     Not existing to the government has helped his success, but for all that he has acquired illegally, no one suspects any one person due to his incredible ability to cover his tracks and even create false ones.

     He has made it a goal in his life to eliminate all businesses that are hurting people.  He does this by computer and, when it is called for, with actual physical involvement.  Any money acquired from bringing a business down, he distributes among those who need it.

     He is not often in one place for very long, and each of his homes is under a different name.
