'''Operating Units:''' Lancer Team, Meta-SWAT, General Operations<br />
  
[[image:Garage.jpg|200px|right]] [[image:LevelBreakdown.png|200px|right]]Located at 1 Waterfront Street, 'The Garage' is seemingly a normal warehouse owned by Keioseth on the waterfront of West Side Millennium City. It serves as the main headquarters for [[Freelancers|Freelancer Industries]], as a storage and maintenance facility, and the main Freelancer team operational headquarters. Much of the functions and operations of Freelancer Industries are run by the artificial intelligence known as SCRI.  
+
<font size=1px>While from the outside the Garage appears like any other warehouse on the docks in Millennium City's west side, it is actually a multileveled base extended deep underground. It houses a motorpool for the various vehicles, ACE  and weapon storage areas, living and training areas, a D-Bridger, medical bay, small science lab, and an AI server farm.</font>
  
The Garage sports Five levels each broken up by several floors and they include:

<span style="letter-spacing:.3em; padding-right:5px; text-transform:uppercase;">'''Active'''</span>
 +
</div>
 +
</div>
  
* The top level of the facility is split between the offices and waiting area, the armor and weapons lockers, and a motor pool. Openly seen by the public is the Offices for the CEO and several others, a reception area, and a waiting area for visitors and customers.  
+
<div style="position:relative; margin-right:10px; margin-bottom:10px; float:left; padding:10px; height: 400px; width:290px; border:3px solid #002851; background:#003366; color:#ffffff; font-size:90%;-webkit-border-radius: 5px; -moz-border-radius: 5px; border-radius: 5px;">
 +
[[image:McLeodSecurity.png|155px|right]]
  
* Directly below the offices the area has been built to accommodate twenty five ACE Suit storage lockers all set to digital locks and DNA encoded to their specific user, the nanoforge and assembly console for ACE Suit creation, as well as an area to modify ACE Suits for underwater and space.
+
<h3 style="font-family:Impact; color:#ffffff; font-weight:normal; font-size:180%;">MCLEOD SECURITY</h3>
  
* This area also has a weapons locker that sports rows of sidearm lockers and assault weaponry, the bulk of the team’s tactical equipment ranging from breaching charges to laser cutters, and a spot reserved for heavy weapons.
+
'''Location:''' 1277 East Ferry St, Hudson City, NJ<br />
 +
'''Appearance:''' McLeod Security Office<br />
 +
'''Operating Units:''' Svalinn Security Unit<br />
  
* Below that is the main motor pool area which houses the FLO (Freelancer Osprey), FLO 2, and two former VIPER transports. In addition to storage for the vehicles it also has an area for repairs.
+
<font size=1px>A modest building which houses a small office in the front and visible to the public. This is the home of the Svalinn Freelancer Team who specialize in security and bodyguard work for the clients and investors of Freelancer Industries.</font>
  
* The first basement level of the facility houses the team’s quarters if they need a place to stay or happen to be working late. Each member of the team has a private room here which they are capable of customizing to their liking. 
+
<br />
 +
<div style="position:absolute; left:0px;bottom:0px; width:100%; background:#10509a; text-align:right;">

<span style="letter-spacing:.3em; padding-right:5px; text-transform:uppercase;">'''Active'''</span>
 +
</div>
 +
</div>
  
* This area also sports a fully functional medical bay complete with medical nanite healing pods, a fully stocked kitchen, Recreational Room and a full size Gym.  The overall recreational area sports a card table and a series of chairs as well as a couch. Posters, pictures, scribbles, and notes adorn the walls, and many of the members maintain some personal space as well as a private locker.
+
<div style="position:relative; margin-right:10px; margin-bottom:10px; float:left; padding:10px; height: 400px; width:290px; border:3px solid #002851; background:#003366; color:#ffffff; font-size:90%;-webkit-border-radius: 5px; -moz-border-radius: 5px; border-radius: 5px;">
 +
[[image:FourWindsNightClub_Exterior.PNG|155px|right]]
  
* There is also an open area that houses the Garage's D-Bridger terminal.
+
<h3 style="font-family:Impact; color:#ffffff; font-weight:normal; font-size:180%;">FOUR WINDS NIGHTCLUB</h3>
  
* The second basement level contains the training rooms which utilize reprogramed robots taken from Siris, holograms, and ISIS forcefields. The rooms take up most of the level.
+
'''Location:''' 8511 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles, CA<br />
 +

 +
'''Operating Units:''' Tarnkappe Intelligence Unit<br />

+
<font size=1px>The Four Winds is a fairly successful nightclub in LA which is owned by Jace McLeod and is designed very similarly to the Garage. While it has a few floors for the nightclub and bar, the lower levels feature things like a ACE and weapons area, living areas, and the like.</font>
  
* The third basement level is the Science Laboratory with high tech machines furnished by Both Silver Eagle and Flux-Carson industries.

 +
</div>
 +
</div>
  
* The lowest level of the complex houses the server room for the Super Computing Resource Intelligence (S.C.R.I.). Due to the large amount of servers the room and the heat they generate, the room is kept at very cold temperatures to keep S.C.R.I. from overheating.
+
<div style="position:relative; margin-right:10px; margin-bottom:10px; float:left; padding:10px; height: 400px; width:290px; border:3px solid #002851; background:#003366; color:#ffffff; font-size:90%;-webkit-border-radius: 5px; -moz-border-radius: 5px; border-radius: 5px;">

The Four Winds Nightclub is located at 8511 Santa Monica Blvd in Los Angeles, California. While Jace McLeod bought the area and developed it into a rather successful Nightclub, this is just a front for his Freelancer unit's base of operations. Unlike his older brother's base in Hudson City, Jace's closer to how the Main HQ in Millennium City is designed.
+
  
* The main Nightclub features a large bar and dancefloor (Think similar to Club Caprice).
+
<h3 style="font-family:Impact; color:#ffffff; font-weight:normal; font-size:180%;">LITHIUM LABS</h3>

It's base armored sheath was capable of turning aside most small arms fire, while the slim outer carapace can protect vital areas from much larger rounds of munitions. The entire spine of the suit is a reinforced power supply allowing the suit to power the body sheathes synthetic muscle fibers as well as the numerous weapons and accessories that can be adapted to the suit's hardpoints.
+
The Advanced Combat Enhancement Suits, or ACES were developed by the United States military as part of an elite soldier enhancement program in 1986. The suits were designed to be light weight, as well as versatile to accept many on the fly combat upgrades to allow the soldiers to adapt to combat situations quickly. The suits production was terminated in 1990 and many of the ACES were removed from combat duty to be replaced with the newer technology, but a handful of the suits were still utilized by various branches of the Military, as well as being the benchmark for many enhancement suits that would be developed in the future.
  
The synthetic muscle fibers of the suit are capable of increasing the user's strength and speed to that of most metahumans as it can double a person's natural abilities in those areas. The armored sheath also contains 'PSYweave' technology which add a psionic static field around the suit making the user less vulnerable to psychic intrusion.  
+
Formerly, the largest user base of the ACE Suits is Millennium City's Meta-S.W.A.T./S.I.R.T. division of MCPD, the team sporting well over thirty of the remaining units in existence. With the suspension of the Meta-S.W.A.T. program, Seth McIlroy bought up the remaining suits and components, keeping them for use of the Freelancer Industries. Since the purchase, Freelancer Industries has gone through several variations on the original design, the most current mass production model is the Mark VII with the Mark VIII as a Freelancer team exclusive and the Mark IX in prototype.
  
The suits also take advantage of the 'Isis Forcefield System' (IFS) developed by Kara McIlroy which is designed to deflect energy based weaponry and attacks. The system also protects the head of the user when a helmet is not on. Each suit also contains a Internal Robotic Medical System (IRMS) which automatically administers treatment to any injuries the user may receive in the line of duty, this includes both the injection of painkillers and medical nanites into the user's body.
+
'''ACElet:'''
+
Each suit also come equipped with a pair of THINGs (Thermal Imaging, Night Vision Goggles) which in addition to their in-name functions contain a video communication system, internet access, SATNAV, and access to both SCRI and the Freelancer Team Database. Each suit also has an independent air system that can be activated in case of airborne chemicals and gases, submergence in liquid, or exposure to a vacuum. The system contains enough air to maintain the user for approximately 3 hours.
+
  
'''Model Types:'''
+
Using a combination of technology and magic the ACElet was one of the last inventions of Dr. Seth "Keio" McIlroy before his death. By giving the device a spin while wearing it and calling out the name of their armor, the Freelancer's Mark IX ACE Armor with form on their body in less than a second. This mostly eliminated the issue of being caught with the armor while in the field.
  
Freelancer Industries has also developed more specialized versions of the ACES which appear as different model types each member is allowed to select from if they want. These model types are:
+
'''Lithtech FL-i17 Vajra:'''
  
* '''Command Variant''' - This model includes a direct neural link to SCRI, the Freelancer Team Database, as well as a connection to all ACES within a mile of the command model. In addition to that it also contains a telepathic enhancer. ''Current Users: Keioseth, Kara McIlroy''
+
Developed by Lithium Labs as an exclusive personal sidearm to members of the Freelancers, the Vajra shares functions with the TASIR/PEN Systems as they have multiple forms they can shift into depending on the needs of the user, the can be easily modded, and two can lock together into a rifle form. The Vajra were designed with nonlethal takedowns in mind typically firing the FLI K.O. Taser Projectile, but they can also fire .45 caliber ammunition.
  
* '''Shield Variant''' - The model contains much heavier armor than any of the other ACES turning the user into a walking tank, the synthetic fibers are also geared more towards strength and less for speed. ''Current Users: Flynn Megantic''
+
'''FLI SPR-01 Archangel:'''
  
* '''Ranger Variant''' - The model has lighter armor than a typical Mark VII allowing for greater manuverability, the synthetic fibers are geared more towards speed than strength. Inaddition to this the variant contains an array of sensors to aid the user in aiming ranged weapons. ''Current Users: Aeva Megantic, Razira''
+
The production model of the XR-0 Seraph, the Archangel's are powered by an LMNT Core with a standard atmospheric cruising speed at 10000 meters of Mach 5.5+, a maximum atmospheric cruising speed at 30000+ meters of Mach 25+, and an unlimited Atmospheric ceiling (capable of launching to satellite orbit over Earth-class planet), additionally they have an FTL Drive for interstellar travel and are capable of sustained VToL flight.
  
* '''Striker Variant''' - This model is designed to aid users who specialize in close quarter combat, it has a variable gearing for the synthetic fibers allowing for 'on the fly' changes to the strength to speed ratios.
+
The Archangel has three internal weapons bays: a large bay on the bottom of the fuselage, and two smaller bays on the sides of the fuselage, aft of the engine intakes. These can accommodate several types of short and long range missiles, the main bay can be outfitted to carry bombs, and the side bays usually have several micro missile launchers. Due to the ability to leave and reenter the atmosphere the aircraft does not have external hardpoints to attach any other bombs or missiles. Two internally mounted M61A2 Vulcan 20 mm cannons are embedded in the wing roots with their muzzles covered by a retractable door to protect them during reentry. The radar projection of the cannon fire's path is displayed on the pilot's head-up display on their THINGs. The final weapon in the Archangels armaments is the Teshin Mega Buster Rifle mounted in the nose of the aircraft which is powered directly by the LMNT core and capable of very powerful power outputs.
  
* '''Medic Variant''' - This model has slightly more armor than a typical ACE Suit and in addition contains multiple subsystems to monitor the health of all ACES within a mile of this variant. It also comes stock with two SCRI Medical Drones to aid the user.
+
'''FLI V-22a and V-22b Ospreys:'''
 +
 
 +
These are two Bell Boeing V-22 Ospreys modified by Freelancer Industries to fit their needs. Both the 22a and 22b have had their wings rebuilt to accommodate new jet turbines powered by LMNT cores to replace the original turboprops. They are still fitted with the standard armaments of the V-22 Osprey with the only major addition being the installation of an Aegis-θ (Aegis Theta) defensive barrier system to better protect the aircraft.
 +
 
 +
'''XMA-01 SABER Suit:'''
 +
 
 +
The SABER suit is a variable response Mech Armor used by the Freelancer Industries Special Response Teams and are designed by Kara McIlroy. Kara took the concept of the ACE Suit and increased it almost five fold. The Sabers have multiple rocket thrusters, Sensors, a SCRI Interface, THINGs, 360 degree panoramic cockpit screen, and an Aegis Theta Defensive Barrier System. Fixed Armaments include a Gatling gun (mounted in forearms), Extendable Heater Blades (mounted in forearms), Super TASIR Gauntlets and is capable of equipping a plethora of optional armaments which include a Shield (mounted on either forearm), 1x Teshin Mega Buster cannon (mounted on right shoulder), 1x Missile pod (mounted on left shoulder), 1x Anti-Material Rifle, or 2x S-Gunbuster Plasma Handguns.

Premise

The main premise of the Freelancers is to help in the protection of Millennium City from any danger internal or external. While not as formal as Meta-S.W.A.T. was the Freelancers try to stand by the original premise.

The team focuses on diversity, flexibility, and reliability, showing the community as a whole that they always have a group that they can rely on when the chips are down. Their diversity offers them the ability to react quickly and efficiently to rapidly changing situations in the field. With the acquisition of Lithium Labs, the Freelancers changed gears slightly to begin production of armor and weapons for local police departments across the country.

The team itself is a juxtaposition of personalities and talents, each member lending themselves to make the Unit something greater than simply the sum of its parts. It is not unusual to find a gun totting, smart-ass Native American back-to-back with a Power Armor wearing Playboy kicking in doors to take down bad guys.

History

Founding

Drawing inspiration from larger government organizations of Super Heroes, Millenium City set to working with thier Police Department and MARS division to come up with a locally owned an operated group that was under direct control of the City's bureaucracy. After formalizing the idea in mid-2009, MCPD tapped retired Army Special Forces John Wheeler to organize the team, and by August of that year, John Wheeler(now dubbed Striker) became a Lieutenant in MCPD and was awarded Unit Director of Meta-S.W.A.T.

Recruitment was slow at first, the Lieutenant finding a handful of team members, many that served only as a test run for what would be the final draft of the group. Of the original team, only the gargoyle Justice, and the Tech Specialist Ethan Halloway, remain. However, the team was about to make a sudden shift into overdrive.

His name was Grond, classified as one of the strongest creatures in the known world, and after a rather destructive rampage through the South-Western Desert, a coalition of super heroes decided to subdue the threat(if only for a time). At first, the coalition found itself ineffectual at seriously harming the massive mutant, and without any solid co-ordination the endeavor was doomed from its onset. Then Zarp Draken, a lone hero stepped up to rally an organizational effort. Striker was the first to lend his aid to the Draconian warrior, offering his military expertise. Together the pair rallied the beleaguered heroes and led them to victory down in Snake Gulch. Shortly there after, Zarp joined the team. It would never be the same.

After Zarp, the roster began to grow more rapidly than expected. Word got out of the units deeds, and reputation for helping a hero in a pinch. Doctor David Smith, joined the ranks, and became the Executive Officer of Operations, lending his charisma and expertise to the team. Recruitment posters started circulating Millennium City of a shirtless Zarp, and nothing could stop then tide after that. They eventually even took on a young former UNTIL officer who was currently on parolee name Seth McIlroy.

After the event of the first Bloodmoon members of the Meta-S.W.A.T. unit began leaving for various reasons and the group was almost disbanded after the retirement of Striker. Seth McIlroy, better known as Keioseth tried his best to hold the group together after having a vision of a the city being destroyed by a man in white armor. Keioseth offered to take control of the unit and was granted this because of his experience with UNTIL. Most of the remaining members disagreed with one of the newest members of the unit being the new Unit Director and resigned.

For a good couple of months the only active member of the Unit was Keioseth, once Flynn T. Megantic rejoined the group, Meta-S.W.A.T. received a surge in membership and became an active part of Millennium City's defense. The group aided in the defeat of Superior, even after the death of Keioseth, they were also instrumental in the resurrection of Keioseth.

After several relatively peaceful months, the main base of the Unit was attacked by Keio's Arch-nemesis Chaosiris and the building was destroyed, most of the team was injured, a few members were even killed. After this incident the city began questioning the need for the unit and they cut the funding in half. If it wasn't for the help of Thundrax the Garage would never have been rebuilt.

Eventually the funding was cut entirely and the group disbanded. Keio put himself into debt to purchase the Garage from the city and began to rebuild the group as a private security agency. He name this new venture "Freelancer: Security Solutions" but after bad publicity and accusations of being a mercenary group, he changed the name to "Freelancers Security Agency" though to most they are simply the "Freelancers."

As time went on the group grew to encompass multiple separate businesses and brought them all under one roof. At this point Keio re-branded the company as "Freelancer Industries" and set the group to focus on scientific research and the production of items to aid local governments in North America and Europe.

SCRI.png

S.C.R.I.:

SCRI, or the Supercomputing Resource Intelligence, is an Artificial Intelligence created by Seth McIlroy. While she is based off of several A.I. that Seth has come across in his travels, SCRI. shares very few similarities to them outside of various functions. The main basis for her were INSCRIBE and the AI that Meta-SWAT used. INSCRIBE was a very basic AI from the computer system used by a super group known as "The Independents," INSCRIBE handled all of the Intellectual Properties of the team. The Meta-SWAT AI handled comm channels, resource tracking, and various other functions for the group. SCRI is a combination of both of these ideas and additions made by Seth.

SCRI's main functions include management of team resources and the allocation of these resources to the team members, Satellite Navigation and Communication for the team, handling most clerical work for the team, and any else the team may require. She has a very dry humor or what seems to be a sense of humor, hard to tell with SCRI.

ACE SUIT :

Mk7acesuit.png

The Advanced Combat Enhancement Suits, or ACES were developed by the United States military as part of an elite soldier enhancement program in 1986. The suits were designed to be light weight, as well as versatile to accept many on the fly combat upgrades to allow the soldiers to adapt to combat situations quickly. The suits production was terminated in 1990 and many of the ACES were removed from combat duty to be replaced with the newer technology, but a handful of the suits were still utilized by various branches of the Military, as well as being the benchmark for many enhancement suits that would be developed in the future.

Formerly, the largest user base of the ACE Suits is Millennium City's Meta-S.W.A.T./S.I.R.T. division of MCPD, the team sporting well over thirty of the remaining units in existence. With the suspension of the Meta-S.W.A.T. program, Seth McIlroy bought up the remaining suits and components, keeping them for use of the Freelancer Industries. Since the purchase, Freelancer Industries has gone through several variations on the original design, the most current mass production model is the Mark VII with the Mark VIII as a Freelancer team exclusive and the Mark IX in prototype.

ACElet:

Using a combination of technology and magic the ACElet was one of the last inventions of Dr. Seth "Keio" McIlroy before his death. By giving the device a spin while wearing it and calling out the name of their armor, the Freelancer's Mark IX ACE Armor with form on their body in less than a second. This mostly eliminated the issue of being caught with the armor while in the field.

Developed by Lithium Labs as an exclusive personal sidearm to members of the Freelancers, the Vajra shares functions with the TASIR/PEN Systems as they have multiple forms they can shift into depending on the needs of the user, the can be easily modded, and two can lock together into a rifle form. The Vajra were designed with nonlethal takedowns in mind typically firing the FLI K.O. Taser Projectile, but they can also fire .45 caliber ammunition.

FLI SPR-01 Archangel:

The production model of the XR-0 Seraph, the Archangel's are powered by an LMNT Core with a standard atmospheric cruising speed at 10000 meters of Mach 5.5+, a maximum atmospheric cruising speed at 30000+ meters of Mach 25+, and an unlimited Atmospheric ceiling (capable of launching to satellite orbit over Earth-class planet), additionally they have an FTL Drive for interstellar travel and are capable of sustained VToL flight.

The Archangel has three internal weapons bays: a large bay on the bottom of the fuselage, and two smaller bays on the sides of the fuselage, aft of the engine intakes. These can accommodate several types of short and long range missiles, the main bay can be outfitted to carry bombs, and the side bays usually have several micro missile launchers. Due to the ability to leave and reenter the atmosphere the aircraft does not have external hardpoints to attach any other bombs or missiles. Two internally mounted M61A2 Vulcan 20 mm cannons are embedded in the wing roots with their muzzles covered by a retractable door to protect them during reentry. The radar projection of the cannon fire's path is displayed on the pilot's head-up display on their THINGs. The final weapon in the Archangels armaments is the Teshin Mega Buster Rifle mounted in the nose of the aircraft which is powered directly by the LMNT core and capable of very powerful power outputs.

FLI V-22a and V-22b Ospreys:

These are two Bell Boeing V-22 Ospreys modified by Freelancer Industries to fit their needs. Both the 22a and 22b have had their wings rebuilt to accommodate new jet turbines powered by LMNT cores to replace the original turboprops. They are still fitted with the standard armaments of the V-22 Osprey with the only major addition being the installation of an Aegis-θ (Aegis Theta) defensive barrier system to better protect the aircraft.

Kara took the concept of the ACE Suit and increased it almost five fold. The Sabers have multiple rocket thrusters, Sensors, a SCRI Interface, THINGs, 360 degree panoramic cockpit screen, and an Aegis Theta Defensive Barrier System. Fixed Armaments include a Gatling gun (mounted in forearms), Extendable Heater Blades (mounted in forearms), Super TASIR Gauntlets and is capable of equipping a plethora of optional armaments which include a Shield (mounted on either forearm), 1x Teshin Mega Buster cannon (mounted on right shoulder), 1x Missile pod (mounted on left shoulder), 1x Anti-Material Rifle, or 2x S-Gunbuster Plasma Handguns.
