WHO WANTS TO SEE LORE FOR MY FREELANCERSONA TOO BAD HERE IT IS ANYWAY
AGENT LOUISIANA HERE WE GO
pronouns are they/them, real first name is undecided (if they have one at all is also undecided) but they go by louis most of the time anyway
(also thank you robin for your help in developing them :])
transcript of the important stuff under the cut!
me: thinking of making a freelancersona.............
agent louisiana, specifically
bc 1: illinois was a canon dude and 2: hrghrhgrh new orleans my beloved.........
they were always placed like. super low in the rankings, like it's an absolute wonder that theyre a freelancer at all
theyre more known for their charisma than their skills in fighting
when pfl went down, they decided to hide among some sim troopers, completely cover up the fact that they were a freelancer
it got out eventually, but. no one cared lol
at least once they were told pfl was defunct
robin: oh idea idea
they intercept a call from some sim trooper base asking for a new recruit and they take the place of whoever was gonna be sent
but things are definitely off bc even the worst freelancers are better than some of the best sim troopers just by virtue of their training and such
they try to blend in but keep bringing up stuff that definitely wasnt in the sim trooper training, which is honestly just a joke
me: i like the thought of them being just. garbage with a gun
so my mind immediately goes to energy sword but it's a fucking battle axe
robin: probably could throw in a joke somewhere drawing parallels to school being easier back in the day and how training must just be more rigorous now
and key thing to note, the freelancer doesnt have to be good at that stuff, they just gotta know about it
whatever skill they do possess is impressive to everyone else though
louisiana does a really cool knife throw or something and at least one of them is like "you are a god among men"
me: dude i sure hope so, their main artillery is blades and explosives
terrible aim, very very scary with a blade
robin: another idea, one person who is very suspicious of louisiana but everyone just rolls their eyes at em. can be on the same team and perceived as just being jealous, or the opposite team and treated like a conspiracy theorist
me: sim trooper commanding officer: alright rookie, let's see what you got *hands louis a gun* shoot that rock up there
louisiana: ... what rock?
co: ...the fucking boulder?
louis: can i get a sniper rifle?
co: ITS A FUCKING BOULDER-
robin: its so huge you couldnt possibly miss it!
me: listen they can throw a knife so good it splits a rock in half, but their hands are just too goddamn shaky for a gun
also massive anxiety due to the fact that it could misfire at any time and kill a teammate
