Joey Phoenix - The Gunslinger

    by: Nick Knight Author IconMail Icon
Name: Joey Phoenix

Age: 35

Sex: Male

Race: Caucasian

Height: 5'9

Appearance: Joey has short black hair, sapphire blue-amber eyes and a fairly muscular build. While he doesn't particularly care about fashion, he does like to wear designer clothes for the sake of appearance, though he knows when to swap them out for body armor and tac gear when things get rough. While he's usually clean shaven, he does sport a little stubble from time to time.

Home Base: Miami Mansion. A large and spacious beachfront mansion located just outside of Miami. It's equipped with every modern luxury you can think of, including a spa, bathhouse, eleven bedrooms, a pool, a wine cellar and a fairly large garden in the front. The mansion also has a few secret rooms that are accessible only by fingerprint recognition, such as a firing range, armory, panic room and vault. Lastly, the whole facility is staffed with highly paid and well trusted butlers, maids and chefs.

Skills/Perks: Joey is an expert gunman, able to handle anything from a pistol to a sniper rifle, thanks to his years of service in the US Navy as a highly-skilled SEAL. His military training makes him perfectly capable of handling himself in a firefight. He also knows how to fabricate different firearm accessories, such as high-capacity magazines and suppressors.

Weaknesses: While he is moderately skilled in hand-to-hand combat, his true talent is with firearms.

Starting Assets: Enough weapons and ammunition to equip a small army, along with plenty of accessories for all of them. Military grade body armor and tac gear. A garage stocked with several high performance sports cars and a motorcycle, plus a helipad for a quick extraction. Finally, private jet on a hidden airstrip about four miles away for a stealthy escape.

Starting Contracts

Contract 1 - A team of former special ops soldiers-turned-mercenaries are plotting to kidnap the teenage son of a world renowned billionaire in Dubai. While the leader plans to use the kid as leverage to get his brother released from prison, there is also quite a hefty ransom involved as well. The risk is quite high, but the pay for a job well done is well worth it. Pay - $50,000,000 - $100,000,000

Contract 2 - An infamous Mexican drug lord has been arrested by the FBI and is about to be sent to death row. Joey's assignment is to liberate the drug lord from FBI custody and escort him safely back to Mexico. The risk is very high, but the cartel is willing to pay a lot for the safe return of their boss. Pay - $10,000,000 - $50,000,000

Contract 3 - A New York City mob boss is facing life in prison after a sting by the feds. He has learned that several key witnesses are living in Miami under federal protection. Joey's job will be to mop up the witnesses and make sure they never testify. Moderate risk is involved. Pay - $15,000,000 - $30,000,000

Contract 4 - One of Joey's old SEAL teammates needs help. His young son is suffering from a serious heart defect and needs a heart transplant as soon as possible. However, the only compatible donor heart was stolen by an organ trafficking gang, who intend to sell the heart to a dying Yakuza boss. Joey needs to steal the heart back and deliver it to his friends son intact. The risk is fairly moderate, but in addition to saving the life of a young child, you also get a pretty decent reward. Pay - $20,000,000 - $40,000,000

Contract 5 - A notorious gang of bank robbers are planning a major heist by knocking over one of the largest banks in New York City. However, the cash in the vault isn't the target. The real target is the contents that is inside a mob lawyers safety deposit box - the account numbers and access codes to his clients' off-shore bank accounts. The risk is quite high, but the job promises a major payday. Pay - $150,000,000 - 300,000,000
