Incision

As an excommunicated Night Creeper, still hunted for whatever transgretion he commited to be removed from their leadership, Alph has still manages to make his presence known nomatter where he goes. He is also is wanted by the Arashikage clan members for his desicration of the tomb that contained Ophelia... Hisonly commentwas that "How else could I get "Phoenix Master's" attention, cutting to his emotions is always more effective than his pride." Guillotine told him he would cut his fingers off if he ever use his fingers to quote something again. As it would seem according to Cobra intell, Incision has bountys for his head from over a dozenninja clans including the Koga clan that produced Firefly, the Black Dragon syndicate and even from the Red Ninja clan from when it was under control of Sei-Tin. Every chance he gets he is talking, every syllabel is barbed with intent to throw off his opponent, nothing is sacred or off limits to his vile mind. To him operating in The Plague unit allows him the safety in numbers that will keep most of his enemies at bay. Blackout often expresses his concearn on how long until his usefullness is outweighed by his threat or aggrivation.

I see him not as crazy random threats but just constant beration like Portman in the movie DOOM

Infared:
Infared is simply the best that Cobra has to offer, he served with the utmost dedication since the very begining. He trained under Vance Wingfield in Springfield. He was among the first Crimson Guards, right along side Xamot and Tomax, before they where named the Crimson Guard commanders. He was orginally selected for the Fred unit. However, never underwent the plastic surgery, Cobra Commander felt it would be counterproductive considering his high profile real world identity. A secret so vital that his Crimson Guard uniforms have always been the prototypes for the commander's own concealment. He served as part of the special weapons and tactics detachment of the Crimson Guards, The Immortals. Instructed by the brazillian agent Cobra Mortal for a time when Xamot and Tomax where away from Cobra to focus on EE he was named Crimson Guard Commander, he did not take a codename at that time. Among the plauge he operates significantly differently that most would expect, when the team was assembled he pulled Scalpel out of the helecopter, kicked him in the face and left him on the tarmac. He turned to the unit and told them he would be their medic "Scalpel will just get one of us killed". He constantly checks on Bayonette's life support unit and has even managed to streamline it somewhat as well as armor it with what he could procure in his off time. He also provides some unknown injection to Grimskull periodically as well as manages a coctail of antipsychotics for Meltdown.

The Interrogator:

For a very long time he has existed in almost the same manner of nonexistance as the Joe team's Claymore. He served as the primary lab assistant to both Dr. Monev an Dr. Apple. He was the televiper that provided the research to Destro and Mindbender that lead to the creation of Serpentor. He was present when Cobra Commander sabotaged the first attempt and resulted in the destruction of the dna samples of Sgt Slaughter and Sun Tzu. He was the one that took it upon himself to take dna from the body of Stormshadow as well as from himself for the second attept as well as paying off Scrap Iron to prevent any further tampering. His proclivity to high science comes from his life prior to Cobra. For a man known for extracting information he has made it quite clear thare are worse things in store for those that try to delve into his past. His methods are meticulous and every word and motion are planned. During the occupation of New York almost on instict he saved a young boy and dog from getting caught under the treds of a HISS he told the boy "you and Bandit better get somewhere safe" the HISS driver and gunner both yelled out in confusion just before he gunned them down for witnessing an echo of his past.

These just keep getting better. Interrogator in particular is flawless.

Vector, Vanguard, Velocity, Vulture (skycreeper)
Munitia, Meltdown (heatviper) Miasma (toxoviper)
Ripit, Ricochet (alleyviper), Redline (Coil motorcyclist)

my idea for Vanguard is a POW forced to fight or die ala Battle Royale collar
I'm still trying to figure out a version of Vector's helmet
Velocity is almost done planning
Vulture is going to be a merging of the skycreeper and night vulture designs
Meltdown I'm not sure if I'll use the v1 helmet design or the v2
Miasma is probably the easiest of the group
Ripit is already started, just collecting parts
Ricochet is already started going with the more urban camo version of AV
Redline is done, been done for a long time
Munitia I've started on, came up with a concept for her I like, and a whole new body construction

_________________

as to why and what spawned the Interrogator is Race idea



Cobra Interrogator (version 4) was created using the torso of Snake Eyes (v4) (1991), the arms, waist, and legs of Red Star (1991), and a new head based on the 12-Inch "Soldiers of the World" G.I. Joe from 1966



plus little tid bits from each of his non appearances on file cards, comics and toon

_________________

I'm a little over half done with Munitia, I'll be posting her alone, then moving on to Vector, Vanguard and Velocity then I'll make Ripit, Skycreeper and the new recruits

on a side note I got a package in the mail labeled LEE'sCrap... my ex sent me a few things that got lost in the breakup/move among them where a few 3.75 projects I was working on I'll finish them up and post them too
