"Hi! Hello, yes I'm looking for the person that runs this whole show. You're the boss? Cool! Yeah, I'm looking to fill that position you have open. You know, the one with the... yeah anyway I'm here to fill that gap.
Appointment? Uhhh... no, I kinda just walked in here and- well I'm here aren't I? That should tell you something huh? I'm good like that.
Huh? Oh, I'm Barbeque. I'm telling you now, you won't forget that name, or me, both are equally rememberable. Also what I do is pretty rememberable, actually that's more rememberable than my name and myself, what you're looking at. Wait wait wait DON'T... don't pick up that phone, yet. Let me tell you why I'm here.
Oh, yeah, I'm here to fill that spot, errr, gap you guys have. What do I do? Well, I'm a combustibles technician. You know, I work with combustible stuff... you're not following? Okay, fine, here's my resume. It should- DAMNIT! Aaaagh for the love of- Look I'm sorry, that just happens sometimes. Alright, so much for that community college course on resume writing. Look, I'll give you the plain and simple. I set things on fire.
Don't look at me like that, I'm not an arsonist, or some crazy pyromaniac that goes around deluding himself that he's a good guy and all. No, I take this fire thing professionally. Fire's not just about destruction and... setting things on fire, look it's a great invention of man. I mean, look at all the great things it can do that don't involve destruction. You catch a fish and need to make it edible, set it on fire. You need stop a wound from bleeding, set it on fire. You need to make a V8 engine combust its fuel in order to function, set it on fire! I could go on and on about the uses of- No I'm not here for a chef position! I may know how to cook but it's not THAT kind of cooking!
Look, fire can do a lot, and I can do a lot to crime. I set crime on fire. Fire fixes crime. Just as fire fixes a lot of problems. Look if you just- I'm sorry! I'm sorry! My mind slipped, I forgot I was in the suit for a second! Was that an expensive chair? I know a Pier 1 Imports store that has better ones, cheaper too, I can replace it, I really can, that is if you give me this job.
Oh? Well, I'm glad you asked about the suit. You see, I used to be a auto mechanic, till one day I went to the strip mall up on Clarmount? The one with the grocery store? Yeah a bunch of those VIPER guys came crashing in and kidnapped me and a bunch of other shoppers in the crackers and snacks asile, threw us in some hover van, and next thing I know I'm waking up in this suit with a bunch of other people in some auditorium. Some VIPER guy was spouting some kinda talk about us being the new weapon against something or other, I wasn't paying attention, I was too interested in the suit I was in. In fact, that saved my life, because while that guy was talking, I had figured out that the suit, this suit, was a giant flamethrower with rocket boots. Huh? Oh, I accidentally turned it on, and everything kinda went up in flames. The boots turned on too and I went shooting throught the roof, that hurt by the way, and landed somewhere in a desert. Some superguy or girl rescued me, let me keep the suit. I guess he thought I was a hero too.
Anyway, point is, I don't want to go back to that old life of oil changes and brake pads. I got this tool now that helps me help others. Well, sometimes it likes to set things on fire, including me. I think it's because it has some kind of combustible detection thingie device, if it can burst into flames, it'll set it on fire. And that includes me. And that resume, and the chair. Look I'm really a good guy and I want to do some good. So sign me up, put me with your best and most powerful and let me help 'em out from the back, because I've seen some of the stuff you super people do, and it looks kinda dangerous. I mean, let's say for example this thing is me, and this-
Ah CRAP! I'm sorry! I'm sorry sorry PLEEEEEASE I'm- oh that's a big stick. Anyway I should be moving towards that door I came in right now. You're not still mad at me about the chair are- Okay okay I'm going! Just remember, I'm a hero, I'm a big damn hero! And I'm- Alright alright, wait wait wait, one last question pleeeeeeease one last question. I'll leave you alone then. Okay, alright...
You actually do have a chef position open? Does that have some heroing time in it? Okay! Okay I'm going. Remember! Barbeque! For all your crime fighting fire guy needs! Remem-"
*And you finally close the door*
(( Yup, Barbeque's officially here, and he's looking for a super group that'll sign him up and tolerate him. Yup, I'm a RP'er. The above is what you should expect of him. Just looking for a good SG that he can add some color and personality to. ))

We are a historic group of fighters that believe in having fun in PVE and PVP.
We are a very loosely formed role playing group thats more interested in having a good time then having to stick to role playing guidelines.
Since we are Spartans from the Past, Present and Future its possible to be any kind of hero that you want to be.
We have members from teens to seniors, from singles people to couples, from students to non students who live in all different time zones from around the world.
We have our own website with forums and some type of teamspeak lined up for our members are interested in using it.
We also have been on the front page most of the the time in the SuperGroup Section most of the time for months now so we are very easy to find.
