Pronouns: She/Her
Other characters: Leonard McCoy (AoS)
IC SECTION
Name: Agent York (Taylor Murray)
Canon: Red Vs Blue
Canon point: Post Death
Appearance: Brown hair, Blue eye with one cataract and scarred on the other side, I use Jansen Ackles as a PB.
Age: late 30s? Probably. No canon age given.
Gender: Male
Personality: York works infiltration and decryption for a reason- he's curious. He's insanely curious about people, about organizations, and especially about puzzles. People are just as puzzling as any decryption and he tries to sort out what pattern of behavior gets the best result. At first brush it's being a friendly, harmless dude bro kinda bro and honestly? It's easy because York is nothing if not laid back and a bit of a dude bro under the military training and paranoia. It's something of an obfuscating tactic because the more harmless and amusing he seems, the less likely people are to believe that he is in fact an infiltration specialist. The less likely they are to look too close into who he is and what he's done or ask questions. Oh it's just this dude, no worries, and move along. It comes part from the paranoia that he earned while in and after Project Freelancer, and part of it was from growing up emulating the other kids in school that were well liked and popular. If he was like every other kid they wouldn't ask after his family or ask why he was peeking into the school records.
His curiosity and tenancy to hide what he's thinking/feeling/observing doesn't make him a dishonest individual- he's a terrible liar. Sure, theft and peeking where he probably shouldn't to satisfy his curiosity and/or boredom might be a dishonest action but he tells the truth when prompted or evades. Outright lying isn't easy for him and makes him uncomfortable, he fumbles with it till he's called on it, and even then it's something of a relief. Coming clean, not so much, but not having to lie. The dishonesty and manipulation of the Project plays into this as an adult, but as a kid the secrecy surrounding the Human Covenant war probably left a bad taste in his mouth in the first place.
Even with how shady the war began and how shady the project was, York's got a strong sense of loyalty to his people- to his CO and to his fellow soldiers. Enough to follow Tex (who injured him or took part in his loss of his eye) to what ultimately was his death. His desire to do right by them when he wasn't able to in the past overrules logic. Literally. Delta didn't think it wise but he pushed through, ignoring the recommendation of the AI for what he felt to be the right thing to do. Call it bravery, nobility, or stupidity, it can all be just about the same.
History: Clicky the linky
Aspirations: To survive comfortably. Mostly comfortably, at least that's how he'd like it to look. Under it all York wants to do the right thing. To be the good guy that he thought he was in the Project until it came about that he wasn't all that good. All he wanted to do was make a difference in the war effort and maybe have kids with green eyes with Carolina but that didn't pan out and then he got shot. So. Living. Living is good. Living RIGHT is better than living comfortably.
Fears: Being taken advantage of again, being a tool. He's already died (when he figures that out it'll be fun) so he doesn't have much fear about that or isolation, but failing to protect the people he cares about and being a tool of a malevolent force terrifies him. he fell for it once, he could again and it's left him paranoid.
Inventory: Power armor, shotgun, side arm, a couple of clips of ammo for each, his built in healing unit
Magic: Teleportation
Reason: There's a lot in York's life that would've gone different if he was able to just be somewhere else at a particular moment. The loss of his eye, Carolina getting dropped off the cliff, being shot by Wyoming. That little extra nudge would'e been the difference between success and failure in the past. Having it now would make him an invaluable asset in the war against the Nox.
RP samples: One long thread
Paragraph: So this was new.
Waking up in the armor? Not new. Waking up alone in his head? That was new. And new, in his line of work, was frightening. No attempt at rousing the dormant AI he swore was there when he'd passed out did anything. It wasn't until he finally cracked the seal on his helmet (stupid, should've check to see if the air was breathable) and reached back to run his fingers over his neural port and found it scabbed over and empty that it clicked.
He'd lost Delta. The one thing he'd done right, the ONE JOB he'd had left, and D was gone. Just like that the rest of the op, a shitshow from the start, came rushing back. The lock. Tex. The teleporter (he hated those things they always felt WEIRD when he went through them no matter how well they worked and visions of Iowa ran through his head) and the firefight after.
Tex's gun jamming.
Two bullet wounds to the upper left torso and he'd passed out. He'd passed out in the middle of an op and Delta was gone but- He lifted a hand up to rub the seam of his suit, just under the chest plate. Where he'd been shot. Pressed down hard and felt the ache of an injury and ran the most recent data from the healing unit as soon as he hauled his helmet back on.
Patient Dead. Cause: GSW & Exsanguination. Recovery Beacon: Active.
And Delta gone. He cracked his helmet off a second time to get that text away from him, threw the damn thing across the room (Like South when she was pissed but he hasn't seen the twins in YEARS) and shoved himself into the farthest corner of the room. Listened to the happy little recording. Another war. Services needed. Fan FUCKING tastic. Is it any wonder he started to laugh?
Notes: York will be coming in post death and be a little twitchy till he settles. It won't help his controlling the teleportation magic thing at all. I'd also request his bum eye to not be fixed via healing magic.
