So, I've had some time to assess my companions strengths and weaknesses while traveling to the Baskar Colony. Here are my initial findings:
Name: Gallows Carradine
Age: 24
Height: 6'3"
Weight: 220 pounds
ARM: Modified Coyote M17F (Sawed-off Shotgun)
Initial Reaction: This joker was out to steal the Ark Scepter, too (even though he already had one in his possession, the greedy bastard). Claims to be a powerful priest of Baskar lineage. Sounds more like a charlatan to me. But he does appear to have some sort of magical powers ... Loud, stupid, and annoying. And what's with the white streak in his hair? Some kind of fashion statement?
Chance of Compatibility: Less than 10 percent. I can't stand this guy. He talks big, but that's about it. He's got the maturity of a five-year-old child and the intelligence to match. Whatever. His only real asset is his ability to invoke the Mediums and magically heal wounds.
Name: Clive Winslet
Age: 30
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 152 pounds
ARM: Gungir HAG35 (Sniper Rifle)
Initial Reaction: This guy was hired to protect the Ark Scepter. He seems like a pretty experienced Drifter and has a good track record for completing dangerous missions. Wears glasses, but has excellent aim. Strong enough to handle the kick of that huge ARM he carries around. Polite and soft-spoken. Definitely well-educated and very smart. Talks like a scholar or professor. Asks way too many questions.
Chance of Compatibility: 50-70 Percent. As long as he doesn't ask too many questions about my line of work, we should get along, for the time being.
Name: Virginia Maxwell
Age: 18
Height: 5'4"
Weight: 108 pounds
ARMs: Rapier Ex and Bantorain 93R (Dual Pistols)
Initial Reaction: This girl just sort of stumbled into the middle of things and now she's suddenly our "team leader"? Okay ... whatever. The fact that she can wield two ARMs at once is a sign of her experience and mastery of the weapon, but she's still just a tenderfoot. I swear to God, though, if I ever hear her utter the words, "Oh no! I broke a nail! Waaaah!" I'm getting the hell out of here. I don't want to put up with some whiny little girl who can't stand a little dirt and sun. Guess this is why there aren't that many female Drifters out there ...
Chance of Compatibility: 30-50 percent. She's naive and overly eager to prove herself. A bad combination here in the Wasteland. But maybe she just might have what it takes to survive ... as long as I don't have to put up with any bitching on her part, she might turn out to be a good ally to have on my side.
