Suicide Squad RPG

Task Force X, colloquially known as the Suicide Squad, is a government-sanctioned expendable black-ops unit founded by Amanda Waller that enlists incarcerated supervillains to undertake high-risk, covert missions in exchange for commuted prison sentences. Task Force X Members: Deadshot, Harley Quinn, Killer Croc, and El Diablo. Deadshot: Floyd Lawton, also known as Deadshot, is an assassin and mercenary for hire, considered the deadliest marksman in the world with nearly superhuman level accuracy, bound by a personal code of conduct. After his capture by Batman, Lawton was imprisoned in Belle Reve, where he was later recruited by Amanda Waller to join the government-sanctioned Task Force X. Deadshot is portrayed as a consummate professional: as long as he's been paid to kill someone, he will always carry it out without mercy, except women and children. He is also sarcastic and have a personal method where he has to be paid first to get his job done and will threaten his employers furthermore when he is offended, evidenced by wanting double the original payment for his job because his "client" was being a "dickhead;" alongside his sarcasm, he has an incredibly tough attitude, and can work even under the highest of pressure. Harley Quinn: Harleen Frances Quinzel is a former psychiatry intern, previously employed at Arkham Asylum, a former criminal and the ex-girlfriend of the Joker, operating under the alias Harley Quinn. Quinn was later imprisoned in Belle Reve after her arrest by Batman and recruited into Task Force X, a covert operations team led by Amanda Waller, where she was forced to work with other dangerous criminals to complete missions for the government in exchange for time off her sentence. Through the shock therapy and the Joker's manipulation, her mind and emotions were twisted to the point where she transformed into a person barely recognizable from the woman she once was, fracturing her psyche and causing intense psychological trauma. Thus resulting in her severe mental instability, becoming a homicidal, sadistic, childlike, and somewhat psychopathic villain, who would use sexuality and her playful personality to achieve her goals or to entertain herself. Killer Croc: Waylon Jones, known as Killer Croc, is a metahuman skilled crocodile wrestler, born with a genetic mutation which gave him reptilian skin, leading to his nickname. He eventually turned to crime, and was chased out of Gotham City by Batman, only to be captured and recruited into Amanda Waller's Task Force X. Croc is incredibly, violent, hostile and dangerous, to the point where it is a mere risk going near him. He acts in an animalistic manner, and shown to often distrust others, given his hatred of humanity El Diablo: Chato Santana, also known as El Diablo (Spanish for "The Devil"), was a former metahuman criminal and a member of Task Force X. Santana was seemingly born with his powerful pyrokinetic powers; however, he eventually lost control over them and accidentally killed his wife and both of his children, which devastated him and led him to willingly surrender himself to the police out of remorse. Because of this traumatic experience, he was initially reluctant to use his pyrokinetic powers out of guilt and fear. Chato Santana was initially a vain and opportunistic man prone to anger, as he notably used his pyrokinesis powers to his advantage, becoming a powerful and successful gang leader. However, Chato couldn't fully control his pyrokinetic superpowers when enraged, which ultimately resulted in him accidentally killing his wife and two children during an angry family spat. Devastated by his deed, Chato voluntarily surrendered to the authorities and became a far more calm, collected, benevolent and withdrawn individual than before, not ever wanting to kill another person with his powers again. Hence, El Diablo was the calmest and benevolent member of Task Force X. Captain Boomerang: George "Digger" Harkness was a notorious criminal from Australia and a member of Task Force X. Earning the name Captain Boomerang from his father later in his life, Harkness became an infamous bank robber, renowned to be among the most lethal robbers in the world with 54 counts of aggravated assault and 98 counts of burglary to his name. Captain Boomerang was a tough, sarcastic, humorous and somewhat crude individual (labeled a "deranged lunatic" on his psychological profile) who had no qualms with theft (98 counts of burglary), beating (51 counts of aggravated assault), or killing.
