DESCRIPTION:
- A rifle chambered in the reliable 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge, the renowned Belgian FN F2000 is known for being reliable and packing a punch. Usually slung around Thaddeus' person, the rifle comes with a 1.6x optical zoom scope and a handguard, bullpup firing system taking 30-round STANAG magazines. It packs a punch, but Thaddeus prefers it without a grenade launcher underslung. Not subject to the rules of the Geneva convention, with this weapon, Thaddeus uses hollow points. The weapon is selective-fire, meaning Thaddeus can switch between semi-automatic, three-round-burst, and fully-automatic.
- The Beretta 96 is a variant of the 92 chambered in .40 S&W with a 12-round clip. With a black sheen and a mahogany-coloured inlay, the pistol is consistently varnished and maintained by its owner, who's almost obsessive about gun maintenance. It's kept at Thaddeus' waist, holstered usually except for dire scenarios, or, when he runs out of ammo for the F2000 and can't be bothered to reload. Not subject to the rules of the Geneva convention, with this weapon, Thaddeus uses hollow points. The weapon is semi-automatic, gas-actuated.
- The KA-BAR knife is an ancient keepsake of Thaddeus' USMC era, engraved and inscribed with various marine writings atop it and around it. The blade is seven inches long, and is used primarily as a multi-tool as opposed to a weapon, considering Thaddeus' inherent ability to punch the living shit out of anything that gets close. Occasionally, though, he will use it for more significant kills.
- An Ithaca 37, absolutely vital for close-range sweeping operations and a oft-switched weapon with the F2000, Thaddeus' primary armament. The Ithaca 37 is chambered for 12-gauge shells, of which it takes six in its internal tubular magazine, ejecting shells to the right with its pump-action. Thaddeus usually carries regular buckshot and less-lethal bean bag rounds, though has occasionally been given other, more interesting varieties of ammunition shoulder his tasks require it. The weapon is pump-action.
- A break-action M79 "Thumper" grenade launcher chambered for 40mm grenades, Thaddeus carries this in place of the Ithaca, once more, on missions that require it. It's a rare sight, but one to fear, as Thaddeus uses high explosive, smoke, tear gas, and white phosphorus grenades, carrying usually only one type, and four or five of each. It's slow to reload and a little clunky, but reliable, has a rustic charm about it, and wreaks all manner of hell from the other end. Occasionally, as a support weapon, Thaddeus may carry flare rounds. The weapon is break-action.
- The M84 stun grenade is in active service in Typhon and other PMCs today. It's mass-produced and creates a devastating flash that only the hardiest of superhumans with sensory implants can endure, and is often used by Thaddeus for when he's hunting down rogue Children or other superhuman targets. Thaddeus carries three grenades at any given time alongside his rifle, grenade launcher or shotgun, sidearm, and knife, and restocks between threads.
