Bio: Well it’s time to alert the people of the city about a serious threat to their survival has been seen within the boarders of the Emerald City and his name is simply Barbecue. This man is nothing more then a killer and whats even scarier this frail old man is quite literally a God among men and he knows it. This runner originally hails from Whales and has been been within the shadows for many a decade, and has been all over the globe working as a freelance mercenary for anyone that is willing to pay his fee and as well willing to allow him to work unhindered. The second part is the scary part, to allow Barbecue to work unhindered means that any hopes you won’t be charged with war crimes flies right out the window. Though it does simply guarantee that this madman will get the job done in a very timely fashion as he doesn’t play by any specific set of rules and whatever is in his code is so loose that it can barely be celled a mercenary code. He is willing to do anything to get the job done and this does mean anything and he didn’t earn the moniker of Barbecue by being good with a grill. He uses torture, murder, assassinations, torture, and lastly fire to make sure he gets his point across and to bring down any enemy he is faced with. The man known as Barbecue is wanted by the Worlds Court for War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity and I will go a little into what he has done to become a world wide wanted man. Though please if you are squeamish or easily offended please read no further.

         The normal employer for this man is a warlord or rebel leader trying to either quash an uprising or start on, this is where Barbecue is at his best if left unfettered. Once he is employed they unleash this mercenary into the troubled region normally alone, though sometimes he is sent in with other questionable soldiers of fortune to watch his back even though he doesn’t need any help. Since he can appear to be a simple old Englishman most people don’t think twice about him and he wonders freely though the troubled region searching for those that are considered the leaders or the beloved citizens. Barbecue just loves finding the beloved clergyman, doctor or just that nice old man that everyone thinks of as a grandfather once he figures out who his target is. He swoops in and captures the poor soul normally off guard with a simple injection of a powerful tranquilizer, he will do this to multiple people if needed. Once they are rendered unconscious, he begins his twisted process of breaking the will of the people. This involves him actually cooking the beloved citizen alive, he first prepares the victims by shaving all their body hair, removing their digestive system and carefully inserting a rotisserie spit up through there rectom and having to travel up their esophagus and out their mouth. These spits are custom designed to be partially hollow so that the victim doesn’t asphyxiate prior to being cooked. he then stuffs there stomachs with various breading, spices, herbs and other meat products. stitching them back up. He then goes and prepares the barbecue pit and gets it nice and hot, he then places the intended victim on the rotisserie and begins the slow process of cooking them alive. Normally he does this in private and allows the scent of cooking meat to entice others to come to his table for a free meal, this process is very easy for him to lure many of the regions citizens over for a free meal since food supplies are normally scarce. Once he has enough people at his table, he begins to carve the victim who has since expired in a very painful manner. Then he begins to feed the people their beloved townsfolk, once he has them all full and begging for more. He then makes the sicking revel, of what they just ate or who they just ate, this process is very dehumanizing and normally causes serious emotional and psychological damage to the people who fell victim to Barbecue and his twisted mind games. Normally this is enough to bring an end to any uprising, though if not he revels the others that have been prepared and are awaiting the roasting flame. Though the issue here is not just his cooking of the beloved citizens, its the toxic agents he introduces into the subject and as well as puncturing the liver. This will slowly render those that ate at his table ill after a few hours and eventually they will succumb to a feverish death as their bodies cook themselves.

          This monster will continue his campaign of terror throughout the region, till he has unleashed enough fear and brought down many with his tainted human meal. This monster doesn’t ever have to actually take physical action to bring down an uprising, he uses fear, guilt, and psychological warfare to end any situation. Though his level of torture doesn’t end with just cooking people alive, no this man will torch entire buildings with the people locked inside and when emergency crews come to rescue the citizens they are meet with a total surprise. As they are trying to save lives, Barbecue is making these rescuers vanish one by one. They are to become his next meal or victim, basically nothing is sacred to Barbecue, he will do whatever he needs to to do to bring down an uprising and break the will of the people. He will continue these mind games, letting the people know that he will cease if they lay down their arms and surrender to the current warlord.

          Normally this will cause the people to turn on the rebels and confirm victory for his employers, this whole process does take time and is not an over night process, their are somethings this man does that I will not put down on paper for it’s far to vile. Though bringing down a regime is far easier for this man, he does basically the same thing but in reverse. He targets the military commanders, their children and wives and extended family and feeds these warlords the best meal of their lives witch will become the last meal they ever consume. What he does to these people I will not report on, though it does give a whole new meaning to being served franks and beans. His torture techniques for those in command are far more gruesome and medieval in nature, and he will always leave the primary dictator alive though mentally and physically scarred to be dealt with by the people. For Barbecue he doesn’t care about the cause, he just cares about the payment and if he is allowed to play freely he will get the job done in his special fashion. Though at what cost, this man doesn’t discriminate and he kills, cooks and tortures man, women and child so I understand in every conflict their are innocents that fall victim. But this man brings them into the war unwillingly and sacrifices their lives for the betterment of the employer and this I say is unfair.

           Now when it comes to his combat prowess, this man is a true legend and their are very few warriors that can stand up against him in a battle. This being said barbecue is not someone that should be allowed to walk freely among the civilised members of society and needs to be behind bars for his crimes. He has gone to far and even the world court has seen this and has compared Barbecue to the infamous Deaths Hand, if you see Barbecue on the streets just avoid him at all costs and never accept anything this man has to offer. Whats got me bothered is some private citizen has paid enough money to put Barbecue on retainer and has employed him to fight against the UCAS and the Natives. This is a serious issue, this killer being part of the rebellion means that he is protected under the Freedom Patriots and the Seattle Police Department will not arrest him. This is also an issue cause he will be going after our boys and when they do surrender to Barbecue, it’s not going to be serving time in a military prison and their will be no chance of negotiating their release. The worse part is he will probably cook them up and feed them to other prisoners or even our own boys, as this man has managed to be able to move around unnoticed.

          That being said Barbecue is within the boarders of Seattle and under contract to engage the UCAS, and from what I have heard they have unleashed him unfettered and are allowing him to do whatever he damned well pleases. People this is the type of people that trying to usurp the government, these are terrorists that don’t give a damn about you in any fashion. They have sanctioned a war criminal to fight for them and unleash his brand of terror down upon all of us. Now more then ever the UCAS needs your help and they need any able bodied citizen to volunteer for military service to fight against these terrorists. If you see Barbecue on the streets please contact your local UCAS Federal Office immediately, this man needs to be behind bars and off the streets.
