Band of Brothers

March, 1945: the forces of the Axis are falling back on all fronts. After half a decade of bloodshed and destruction, the end of the war is finally approaching. Yet, unknown to the Allies, the enemy has one more ace up their sleeve. A routine investigation of an abandoned submarine base leads to the discovery of a massive Nazi secret operation in Antarctica. As the Allies gather whatever forces they can divert to this new front of the war, a desperate race against time begins in the heart of the frozen continent, one last clash under the shadow of the Mountains of Madness to thwart this final plot of horror and madness.

Appearance & Personality: Captain Oliver Carpenter is a cheerful man, always ready with a song on his lips (even if he often sings off-key). He is tall, and while he was handsome once, the wounds he suffered during the disastrous Operation Crusader have left him badly scarred. In spite of this, his confidence remains unshaken. He feels he has beaten death, counting the fact of his survival as victory enough. Oliver is daring and courageous, and he often seeks out thrills. For him, the war is the ultimate adventure. He is also a hopeless romantic, certain that when he meets the woman he is destined to marry it will be love at first sight for both of them -and so it was.

Background: It has long been Oliver's dream to become a doctor, and he has spent most of his life preparing to become one. His natural intelligence has helped him excel in his studies, and in 1938 he began his freshman year in Oxford University. The Czechoslovakia crisis unfolded during his first weeks there, and it looked as though war could erupt then and there. He had been prepared to join up if it did, but the start of the war was delayed by eleven months, allowing him enough time to begin his studies and enjoy the last summer of peace in 1939.

When the war did start on September 3, 1939, he rushed to sign up for military service. Because of his high aptitude, he was commissioned as a second lieutenant. After his training, he was assigned to the Number 2 Commando as a medical officer, and he underwent further training at Achnacarry Castle in Scotland. Though he was far from completing his degree, his skills and knowledge were good enough that he could do the job. After numerous operations in Norway, France, and Belgium in the spring of 1940, his unit was evacuated from Dunkirk. They also saw action in North Africa, and in 1941 they were folded into the newly formed Special Air Service.

Oliver was disappointed that the SAS was used as a decoy designed to mostly exist on paper in order to fool the Axis, but he got to go on enough real missions to keep him excited. Their first one, Operation Crusader, saw them parachute into North Africa in November 1941, where they encountered heavy resistance. Oliver was badly wounded, but he managed to stay conscious and treat his own wounds, then helped to cover his unit's retreat. As a result, he was awarded a medal and promoted to captain. He recovered in time for the SAS's second operation, which was a complete success, resulting in the destruction of three airfields and dozens of aircraft in Libya. With American forces arriving in North Africa in late 1942, victory in that theater was assured. Oliver went back in England on leave, and in 1943 he investigated strangeness at the ruins of Exham Priory that had involved a member of his family twenty years prior. After that, he saw action in Italy.

In the early hours of June 6, 1944, Oliver parachuted into Normandy with his unit, but he was blown off course by the wind and landed badly, injuring his ankle. Fortunately, a French Resistance fighter named Claire Deveraux found him and saved his life from German soldiers. She took him to a safe location where she nursed him back to health, and the two fell instantly in love. Unbeknownst to him, she conceived their son that day. When he was healthy enough, Oliver set off to reconnect with his unit, but he resolved to come back after the war and find and marry Claire.

Oliver participated in the disastrous Operation Market Garden in September 1944, where his medical skills were sadly in demand. and he was also in the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944 and January 1945. Afterwards, with the war winding down in Europe, he was transferred to the South Atlantic to help look into an abandoned Nazi base.

Family Members: Oliver was born in late 1919 to Stanley and Meredith Carpenter, conceived not long after his father returned from the last war. He has a younger sister Irene, who is 22 years old. She had started out working as an ambulance driver in London shortly after the war broke out, but starting in 1941 she began to be sent on special assignments she wasn't allowed to talk about to anyone. Their younger brother, Joshua, is 20 and is currently with British forces invading Germany. Stanley is a carpenter from a long line of them (hence the name). He served in the Great War, and he joined up again when this war started. He is a combat engineer. Meredith joined the Women's Land Army.

Name: Michael "Stogie" Callahan, Lt US Army

Background:
Michael "Stogie" Callahan hails from a large Irish American Chicago family. He left school at 16 to help pay the bills at home and was driving a cab by 20. Stogie enlisted in the Airborne in '41 for the money and prestige, and subsequently worked his way up to the rank of Sgt. He was then very surprised when, despite his limited education, he received a battlefield promotion to 2nd Lt based primarily on his occasional bouts of suicidal bravery. More recently, Stogie was promoted further to full Lt as his contemporaries have been weeded out by enemy fire. Stogie was severely injured by artillery fire and has spent some weeks in hospital, only just released now.

Stogie is short and stocky, with dark brown hair. He speaks with a very working class Chicago accent. Stogie gets his nickname from the lit or unlit cigar always between his teeth.

Stogie joined up early because he figured sooner or later he'd get drafted and better to volunteer for something good, with a nice uniform. And it sure beats being cabby. The extra $50 a month is no bad thing, Ma appreciates it. And bub, do you want to go into battle with highly trained volunteers or sad sack draftees?

After the war's over, Stogie assumes there will be no room for poorly educated junior officers, so his plan is to return to Chicago and open a garage. Ain't going back in the cab though.

Appearance & Personality: Of average height, black hair and blue eyes, with a slightly dark complexion (it is rumored, though not known for sure by the family, that the old servant Marie was actually William's mother). Has an unsightly scar running the length of the right side of his face where he was bashed in the face by the butt of a German rifle. Almost always reading or writing in his downtime. He has a journal he keeps faithfully as often as possible. Other soldiers in his unit gave him the nickname "Cajun" because of his extremely thick Southern accent, at first he clarified for them that he was not a Cajun, but now he just doesn't mind anymore. After the war, he just wants to get back home and marry his girlfriend Diana. They've talked about moving to New Orleans.
Background: Nicholas Laplanche was born near New Orleans on September 9, 1921 to a family that had seen better days. The Laplanches lived in a run-down plantation near Belle Chasse, many of the servants having left during the Reconstruction. By the 1900s, only one, an old woman named Marie who became Nicholas' nanny when he was born, was left. A studious boy relatively isolated in his home, he read vociferously nearly all the volumes in the library and many from the libraries in New Orleans. The Laplanches continued to live on their plantation until 1937. In that year, Nicholas' father William had to sell off the plantation which still sits abandoned in Belle Chasse, and the family moved into town. After the United States entered the war in late 1941, Laplanche was incensed; and by mid-1942 he had enlisted.
Family Members: William (father, age 42), Maude (mother, age 36), Cecile (sister, age 17), Sam (brother, age 9). There is also Diana Thibodeaux (22), Nicholas' girlfriend.

Tom Major, the son of kind but absent-minded parents, grew up quickly after a harrowing experience with the family pet Alsatian, ‘Daisy’. Leaving the dog breathing its last, and himself scarred for life, Tom subsequently spent his teenage years with a reputation as a loner.

Bullies quickly learned to avoid him, allowing him to follow his own path, which tended towards the esoteric – a trait he inherited from his German grandfather, whose dusty leather-bound books he avidly pored over.

When war broke out in 1939, he was spotted by the SOE and soon fell under the wing of Section M, who recognised his potential. Several missions lead him into Europe and as far afield as Tibet. However, his last mission has left him out of action for several months.

While attempting to disrupt a train in the Alsace region (irony?), rumoured to be carrying a ‘cargo of interest’, he and his team met with more than they could handle. Instead of the ancient artefact they were expecting, they were overrun by something very much alive. Tom was the only one to make it out alive.

After recuperating at Clemens Park in Kent, still unsure of what he saw on the French/German border, Tom now feels ready to get back to duty.

He believes there is something other-worldly behind the Third Reich and that he must do his part to stop them bringing about Hell on Earth.

Not one to think too much of creature comforts or settling down, he expects to carry on in some similar capacity after the war, assuming he is still alive. He fears that Evil never sleeps - it merely yawns.

Leander is the only son of Elizabeth and Peter Kemp, and was born and raised in Grand Prairie, TX. Since childhood he demonstrated great interest in motorized vehicles, spending most of his free afternoons in a garage near his house, where he got the nickname that would accompany him for life - Smalls . At the age of 16 he was a fully-trained mechanic.

His passion for aviation flourish as a teenager, when his father got a job at the recently-inaugurated Curtiss-Wright Airport of Fort Worth-Dallas, and in 1935, by the age of 18, he enlisted in the then-U.S. Army Air Corps (USAAC) Hensley Field, in Dallas.

All he ever wanted was to fly and feel the motor power under his control, but when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor he felt like his country needed him. Shortly after, he was dispatched to Great Britain, where he completed several tours as a fighter pilot. He was present in several operations, including bombings in Berlin and air attacks in Normandy before Operation Overlord.

In June 3, 1944, during Operation Cover in Pas-de-Calais, northern France, Leander's P-51 Mustang was hit. He managed to take his fighter back to the British coast, but during landing - which was more like a half-controlled crash - he broke 2 ribs and had a heavy concussion. The recovery took several months, and he was pretty sure the war was over for him, until an assignment for a mission in South Atlantic took him by surprise.

After the war he wants to end his military career and become a civil pilot. The world is full of beautiful places, and the idea of getting people to see these places pleases him.

Background The Great War was good to Amadeus Galishoff. He wasn't a fighter, no army would have him except for cannon fodder. He wasn't a businessman. He wasn't a Nazi. He was in search of a reinvention. He was tired of his life in Austria. He was tired of his job as a menial hunter and tanner. The chaos of the war gave him plenty of opportunity to change.

When fighting broke out, Amadeus quickly fled to Boston with deceit in his heart. He began claiming he was a psychiatrist with exceptional schooling from the finest universities in Austria. He even claimed he studied under the famed Sigmund Freud, despite only knowing the father of psychoanalysis talked a lot about sex. With his thick Austrian accent, gullible London women believed him and he used this to his advantage. Using the "tips" he learned from Freud, Amadeus began taking advantage of his female patients. His psychiatry sessions quickly became a far more... active practice.

However, the truth was that Amadeus knew nothing of psychiatry and had no desire to learn. Instead of studying his "trade", Amadeus found himself researching the oddities of the human race. His interests were piqued by one of his patients who claimed she was visited by odd creatures in the night. To his amazed curiosity, he uncovered references to similar creatures in obscure tomes in Boston Public Library. Tired of dodging punches and thrown bottles from angry husbands and realizing his advancing age, Amadeus began adapting his practice. He began to see clients who claimed to have witnessed the paranormal.

It was this second change in career that caught the attention of the US Military. Threatening to expose his fraudulent doctorate, the military offered Amadeus a job in their own outfit. Amadeus quickly agreed, seeing shellshocked soldiers with greater fears than mortar shells and machine guns. However, Amadeus knows there's a greater purpose to his new job. He just doesn't know exactly what yet.
