Choose A Class
____________________________________________________________________
Hello fellow members of Outer Heaven. It's come to my attention that some of you who were invited haven't chosen a class or codename yet. So, in light of this, I've decided to form this thread so newer members can post both and Stray and myself can place you accordingly. ^_^ Below is a list of classes as well as a brief overview of how to choose a codename.
____________________________________________________________________
Regarding Codenames
The codename system we use here is derived from that of Foxhound. You can choose your own, or we can give you one if you ask. Codenames consist of two words, a relative title or word followed by a chosen name, usually an animal name, though simple nouns aren't out of the question. Examples: (don't use these) Revolver Ocelot, Psycho Mantis, Sniper Wolf, Vulcan Raven, Decoy Octopus, Gray Fox, Solid Snake, Pyro Bison, Big Boss. We'd like to ask that you keep your codename unique and don't copy from the Metal Gear Solid games.

Regarding Classes
Classes are a placing system for both roleplaying and the MMORPG system. They'll help Dog and myself when the time comes to organize platoons for battle. Currently, there are 7 classes, but as the zOMG gaian project reveals itself further, more might open up. For now though, please select from the following:
Infantry
This class is the most balanced one, with the offense, defense, and speed all about equal. This class may be split into the sub classes heavy infantry, medium infantry, and light infantry, with each still being mostly balanced, however with a very slight emphasis on offense, defense, or speed, respectively.
Cavalry
This class will emphasize speed over offense or defense. The cavalry will strike quickly and move quickly, taking on many at once. An optional sub-class, dragoon, will denote someone who emphasizes speed in battle, striking fewer, but with speed.
Artillery
The artillery will be the heavy hitters, emphasizing offense in battle, whether in a larger area or single targets. They'll do heavy damage, but may not be very quick or tough.
Decoy
The decoy will emphasize defense in battle, be that bolstering ally ability, dampening enemy power, or simply being a major damage sponge. These are gonna be the ones that can take a lickin and keep on kickin, as the old addage goes.
Medic
This will probably be the most specialist class. The medics will focus mostly on helping out allies by healing them, treating their injuries so they can keep fighting.
Agent
A newer class. This class is largely non-combat, and would focus less on fighting and more on intelligence gathering. An agent could be anything from a mole, to a stealth operative, to a spy, and even someone who looks for other spies.
Signaller
Another newer class. This class would specialize in communications, be that communication with soldiers, operatives, or even other clans and allies. They would also be in charge of relaying intelligence gathered and making it known to those who need to know.

So, please, if each member could post their desired codename and class here we'd greatly appreciate it. ^_^
