1. Growing up in a military family, I've been firing guns all my life and I'm a very good shot.

2. I can make a comfortable camp-site with only a knife and a tarp. I really don't even need the tarp.

3. Grew up in a rough neighborhood, so I've been fighting for most of my life. No professional training, but I learned how to quickly get out of someone's grip and knock 'em down.

4. My best friend is pretty good at hot-wring, so I'll keep him safe with me, haha.

5. None, unfortunately.

6. I was the team captain for my high school lacrosse team, so I'm used to leading others.

7. Refer to #1. I've been trained in outdoor survival, and firearms. I'm decent at both.

hornet driver may i suggest instead of carrying around a sig (which they are good yes) but get a glock 17. yes its a 9mm but it gets the job done, lightweight, small, 21 round mags, and very accurate, cheap and a good trigger contrl

1.Where I live you learn to shoot things at a very young age. I got my own 12 gauge pump shot gun for my 14 birthday. ( true story ) At a resonable distance, 20-40 feet I can cut you in half with one. Pistols are a little harder to hit with especially if your target is running. I've got a rifle that we call a "tack-driver" it's a .22 Mag with a scope, bull barrel and a bi-pod.
2.Agian I've been surviving my whole life, being outside is just what we do. If it's not hunting or fishing it's "other" things that require reasonable skill at staying alive and out of sight.
3.Close combat- you don't go to jail down here with out getting some close combat training from the arresting office to the nice meth-head you get to share a cell with. Maybe it's just brawling but that's where it all started out anyway !
4. none, don't do G.T.A. You get serious time for that .
5. Mechanics- yep, sure got that from tractors to chainsaws. It just takes a little bit of problem solving.
6. I have not always been a man of the cloth. I spent 10 years in a high pressure job where my people's lives were under my care. And you get the prize....I screwed up and several of them got hurt, bad. So I quit but yes I got a little leadership experience.
7. 10 years worth of regret.

This is supposed to be completely out of character? No RP BS?
This is the real me.
1.Do you have any experience with fire arms or ammo ?
Yes. Rifle, Shotgun and a 45 handgun. Decent shot with most rifles and handguns, terrible with a shotgun. I prefer a longbow though. Forget compound bows. The more mechanical things a weapon has, the more things that can go wrong. As it is, I used to shoot a bare bow (No sights, no recoil steadiers, no finger guards or arm braces) three hours a day, and could shoot skeet almost as well as most people can do with a shotgun. I can make a bow, bow string and arrows pretty much from scratch with the right tools.

2.Do you have any experience with survival needs and equipment?
Yes. My survival training centers mainly around forested areas (Not jungles, deserts or the arctic. I do have enough skill to survive in those environments, but not enough to flourish). My last time out (C0mpletely by myself), I left with two knives, a roll of twine and a machete. I was out for two months. On the first day I had set traps for fish, turtles and deadfalls for rabbits and racoons. The second I had woven a 3" thick sleeping mat and had rabbit for dinner. By the third day I had completed a fully enclosed thatched roof hut and my sleeping mat was now on a frame making a nice cot. I made a clay and stone oven inside the hut for heat and did not go one single day without finding some sort of meat or fish to eat. Even during the second month when it started snowing, I was warm, dry and well fed. I even had a table and some really comfortable chairs.
I also spent a month homeless on Venice Beach in California when I was 16. I did a dang good job there as well.
I also am quite proficient in first aid of all sorts. Western and herbal.

3.Do you have any experience with close combat?
Red Belt in Judo. Extremely familiar with staff, bullwhip, meteor hammer, sledgehammer, axe, short sword and knives.

4.Do you have any experience with vehicles such as hot wirrering?
Nope. I am really good with horses though.
They never run out of gas.

5.Do you have any experience with mechanics?
Modern- No.
Ancient- Yes. If it is made out of wood, stone, leather and rope, I can make it. That means siege engines, bows, traps, boats, sleds, barricades that will actually hold up, watchtowers, walls, bridges, ladders, cages...you think it up and I will be able to make it.

6.Do you have any experience with a leadership role where others rely on you for most things?
Yes. I was a canvas master for a circus which involved coordinating the efforts of a lot of people, and making them feel good about it. I always take charge in a crisis situation, whether asked to or not. It comes easily and naturally. I don't have a choice.

7.Do you have any experience in milatary opperations or training?
No. The military was to restrictive for my mindset.
