We Are The Bullet Symphony



The Bullet Symphony, an old idea I had years ago. I created this with the intent of challenging myself to create a new character every 30 minutes.

The Bullet Symphony is (from L-R):

Mr. Gray - Middle-aged Scottish badass with a modified claymore/sub-machine gun wtf hybrid weapon. Team leader. Has a moustache.

Dr. Paolo: Italian ex-Il Nono paratrooper. Very obsessed with knives. Has a butterfly knife he named 'Floriana' that he got from being deployed in the Philippines. Oh yeah, he's a fucking doctor.

Tsume: The newest recruit. Escapee of Japan's "Tetsujin'" project where select special agents are brainwashed and subjected to nanomachine conditioning. Can use his nanomachines to make his skin as hard as a diamond. Personally trained by Mr. Gray (which explains his handgun/sword wtf weapon). Usually cool and collected but afraid of heights. Has a cat named 'Big'.

Benny Gao: Ex-PLA Spec Ops from China. Carries over a dozen revolvers under his coat. An amazing martial artist and an accomplished chef. Likes Dieter...I mean, REALLY likes him.

Dieter: Rich German long-range sharpshooter and former fashion model. Modelling career ended when a hit was placed on his head resulting on the scarred face he now bears. Chain-smoker and quick to anger, but it somehow does not affect his aim. Obsessed with Soccer. Names his bullets. Scared of Benny Gao.

Yanin: A reconnaissance genius. Extremely adept at disguises and changing her voice. Can speak many languages. Has a photographic memory and an accomplished artist. Likes Tsume, but she's allergic to cats.

Annika: Nobel-Prize winning chemist. She was saved by Mr. Gray when her life was threatened by assassins. The resulting battle unleashed her experimental bio-chemical weapons throughout her home, killing her family. Still bearing a hit on her head, Mr. Gray helps her fake her death and she joins The Bullet Symphony. Annika is not her real name, only Mr. Gray knows who she really is. She's often locked away in her lab working on strange concoctions that may assist the team. Her latest creation is the Love Bomb. A gas bomb that makes people very...affectionate towards each other.

Charlie Brown: Not his real name. Engineer and heavy weapons lover. He enjoys creating customized weapons for the team and himself. He uses his ginormous pair of Gatling-Tonfas to waste fools as if they were flies. He is an extreme survivalist and can make do in the wilderness for weeks armed with only a paper clip and gum. He does not speak English and usually prefer to speak to his teammates through his eyes. No one really knows what language he's speaking.
