Origin:

As are her fellow GI Joe operatives, Stiletto has no special powers to speak of, but she can hardly be considered 'normal' by any definition of the term. She's an expert combatant and enjoys her work, whether she's currently fighting for the angels or for the bad guys.

Known Powers:

(none)

Limitations / Enhancements:

(none)

Equipment:

Knives: Stiletto always has at least two knvies on her person at all times, because she has trust issues. Hers are made from Incredible (40) m.s. materials, and can either be used to cut through items of up to like m.s., given the time, or to inflict Edged Attack damage in melee.

Sidearm: in addition to her submachine guns, Stiletto carries at least one backup piece. She can either discharge one round from this deadly weapon to inflict Typical (6) Shooting damage, or a three-round burst from it to inflict Good (10) Shooting damage.

Submachine Guns: Stiletto's mission loadout includes two assault rifles, which can discharge one round to inflict Typical (6) Shooting damage, a short burst of such to inflict Good (10) Shooting damage, or be fired continuously to inflict Excellent (20) Shooting damage.

Swords: an expert in edged implements, Stiletto carries two ornate blades as her primary weapons. Made from Incredible (40) m.s. materials, these blades can either be used to inflict her Strength +1 CS in Edged Attack damage, or to cut through items of up to like m.s.

Quirks:

Lame Left Eye: it is unknown when or how Stiletto lost the use of her left eye, but this now-useless organ gives her a -1 CS penalty on Intuition FEAT rolls dependent on her vision, raised to -2 CS for those FEAT that rely upon peripheral vision.

Talents:

Crime: having worked as a Cobra operative for several years before switching sides, Stiletto has several unconventional capabilities at her disposal. Whether picking locks, posing as others, or simply trying to remain inconspicuous, Stiletto does so at a +1 CS.

Guns: a skill she learned through Cobra, which the Army subsequently reinforced, this talent represents Stiletto's ability to wield conventional firearms. Whether it's a standard, semi-automatic, or fully automatic rifle or pistol, Stiletto can use it at her Agility +1 CS.

Martial Arts type B: while she prefers fighting with blades, Stiletto can nonetheless defend herself without weaponry. She can attempt any unarmed attack, whether punching, kicking, biting, or anything else, as if her Fighting score was +1 CS higher than is listed above.

Military / United States and Cobra: Stiletto has done her time as a Cobra operative as well as a member of the US Military. To say she knows all about the military mindset and functioning in a martial environment would be something of an understatement.

Sharp Weapons: while she specializes in her knives, Stiletto is well-versed in the use of most edged weaponry. Her extensive and lethal hand-to-hand training allows Stiletto to wield most weapons with a blade without penalty, if not an actual bonus.

Skill / Knives: sure, she carries all manner of sharp objects on her, but Stiletto's preferred implements of death dealing are knives. Thanks to her extensive experience with bladed objects, supplemental work with knives has given her a +2 CS to hit while wielding them.

Two Knives: the only thing better than brandishing one knife at your opponent is brandishing two knives at your opponent! This skill, self-developed by Stiletto, allows her a bonus knife attack each turn, on top of any others she manages with a multiple actions FEAT.

Contacts:

Stiletto is a member of the GI Joe team, and while she makes them uneasy, can likely consider them a reliable contact. She can also consider her fellow defectors in GI Joe contacts as well, especially Mercer, and may have a few remaining Cobras at her beck and call, as well.

Costume:

Stiletto's GI Joe field uniform is comprised of a black stretch fabric T-shirt beneath a black and burgundy leather bodice, green trousers, black leather boots and gloves, black knee pads, burgundy sword holsters, leather knife holsters, and a blue neckerchief.

Personality:

While it is unknown precisely what eggs Stiletto on, the truth is that she's a relentless fighter. She knows what she's good at, and enjoys engaging in combat at every opportunity, no matter who's calling the shots. With Stiletto, loyalty applies to friends, not organizations.

Story:

Stiletto is a former Cobra operative, one who left Cobra alongside her friend Mercer. Most of her background before this point is highly enigmatic, and Stiletto not doesn't volunteer related information, but she isn't all that forthcoming when asked about it, either.

She didn't initially join the Joe team alongside Mercer, but served for a time as his personal bodyguard. Since she was around so much, though, the powers that be decided that it was eaiser to just let Stiletto go on missions alongside the ally she was inseperable from anyway.

Not that such a decision was made lightly, since Stiletto was a former Cobra operative. But since she insisted on loitering around the joint, causing trouble if not given anything to do, the powers that be decided to make lemonade out of the situation, and brought her into the fold.

Being official, more or less, Stiletto often joins missions that Mercer is assigned to, but does work with other Joes as well. Even if they find her dead stare, former affiliation, and predilection for perforating others unsettling, Stiletto is fine working with her new 'friends'.
