Thanks to all the customizers who entered this phase of The Mission Custom Contest! The quality of customs entered greatly exceeded my expectations.

Thanks also to JoeCustoms.com for the Filecard Creator. The site is an invaluable resource for any customizer.

***Disclaimer***

All the filecards we’re made for the contest by me, except for Spectre’s, whose I modded slightly from the one sent to me. They do not necessarily tell everything about the New Recruit. I used the information provided by the customizer but, in some instances, information may have been edited in order to fit it onto the filecard. Please read all the information provided for each New Recruit before placing your vote. Thank you.

***Disclaimer***

Thanks again to all the great Hisstank customizers that entered and to everyone that voted! Your customs impressed the hell out of me and everyone else.

Primary Military Specialty: Stealth Operations

After intense training and testing, Sidorov was fitted with an advanced battle-suit that created immense "shadow-like" cloaking, making him completely invisible in the dark. The suit was a prototype, which lead to the suit stolen and used by the mercenary entitled "WRAITH"

His last appearance was freelanced, so he was cut-off from Red Shadows, as they worked on the Wraith armor.

Other Information
Arcee comes equipped with a radio broadcasting backpack, a laptop with flight control joystick and a helmet that includes a heads up display of what his vehicle is seeing at all times.

EXTERMINATOR

Cobra
Codename: "Exterminator"
Specialty: Unknown
Filename: Unknown
Primary Military Specialty: Limited Data

"Exterminators" are a new breed of Cobra Spec Ops soldiers. Not much is known about them, except for the few times they have been viewed in combat. "Exterminators" seem to have no fear, and show no mercy while engaging G.I.Joe personnel. Outfitted with kevlar reinforced flak overcoats, and ballistic armor on key points, these troops simply walk through the battlefield. Additional gear includes standard issue packs, weapons, and night vision. Considered extremely dangerous!

When asked about these new Cobra soldiers, Snake-Eyes replied: "------".

GHOST

Allegiance: GI Joe
Codename: Ghost
Specialty/Function: Wet Works and Sabotage
Filename: goes by Ebersol Drake
SN: Classified
Primary Military Specialty: Recondo
Secondary Military Specialty: Hostile Environment Survival and Warfare Tactics
Birthplace: Unknown
Grade: E-5


Bio: It is said that when the dead have unfinished business their spirit may roam the Earth in an attempt to right their wrongs. In this case the spirit has died, but the body is left with a great amount to
answer for.

There is much I have learned, and much that I could say about this
man, but I am only allowed a little. He had a promising military
career until he dropped of the grid. His record was suddenly sealed
and it was listed that he "died in action" with a burial ceremony held
for family and friends in Arlington National Cemetery. Despite the
pomp and circumstance at this performance, it was rumored he entered
into a CIA black-ops program that sent him undercover around the
globe. He remained dead to all who knew him, and for all intensive
purposes this man was no longer amongst the living from the second he
took the took the job.

In a raid on a foreign prison camp a few years ago an American was
discovered amongst the local inmates. He said little, but enough to
get a meeting with the Joints Chiefs of Staff and Director of the CIA
upon his return to US soil. He was given a new identity and
reclassified as a Specter Agent* being instructed to leave all aspects
of his past life in death. His past life worried him little though as
the mistakes that led to his incarceration where much graver and
weighed heavier on his soul. From what he could tell us, a rising
organization called Cobra had their hands in every op and
investigation that he took part in, including one that resulted in the
death of the woman he loved.

Because of what this man knows and a vengeance he seeks he was
released to team Delta under the command of General Clayton "Hawk"
Abernathy. As an agent of GI Joe he assists in training agents to
survive in hostile and threatening environments and tactics suited for
missions that can be considered a little "dark" even for GI Joe.
Missions that Ghost is called upon himself to operate when necessary.

*Specter Agent : An asset that has been left for dead or whose
knowledge of was disavowed upon capture that is returned to the nest
and allowed to continue with one's work while reaming "dead".

Parts Used:
Head: RoC Shipwreck
Torso: Mutt
Arms: RoC FireFly
Hands: Res Duke
Legs: Pit Commando
Knee Pads: Dessert Ambush Duke
Accessories: Assorted

Paints Used:
Model Masters Gunship Grey

PSYK

Allegiance: Cobra
Codename: Psyk
Specialty/Function: Serpentor's Bodyguard
File Name: Shannon Ware
SN: Classified
Primary Military Specialty: Psychic Warfare
Secondary Military Specialty: N/A
Birthplace: Seattle Wa.
Grade: N/A

Bio: Shannon Ware had always experienced an uncommon amount of deja-vu throughout her life, she also had an uncanny ability to know what people expressing strong emotions were thinking about. When she saw an add in her community college paper looking for test subjects for paranormal research she thought it might help answer some of her questions; instead she found the testing was a Cobra front to find recruits for Dr.Mindbender's Psychic Viper Legions. The testing eventually proved fruitless as only three people were ever found that met Mindbender's needs and two of them died when subjected to further testing. The Psychic Viper Legion may have failed, but through extreme brain manipulation, surgery, and constant exposure to Mindbender's chemical creations, Psyk was created. With no trace of Shannon Ware left, Psyk stands by Serpentor listening for thoughts of treachery and betrayal, ready to instantly serve deadly sentence on plotters or the non-loyal.

Other Info: From Dr.Mindbender's personal journal: "Serpentor appreciates the deadly creature I have built for him, yet still fears that the part of Psyk's brain that houses her memory and conscience thought that is aware of what has been done to her may some day rise up against him. I assure him that there is a part of her brain that is aware and understands what has become of her, but that part is safely in a jar in my laboratory. Psyk is 100% loyal... to me.

SN: 820-826-911
Primary Military Specialty: Espionage, Combat Aircraft Pilot

Bio: Shawn Coscolluela was the top ace in the Air Force. He was hailed as the ghost of the skies due to his out of this world skills in air combat. His career came crashing when he was shot down by Cobra. For months he suffered torture at the hands of Cobra Commander. He thought of ending his life with his own hands but was given another chance to live when he was saved by G.I. Joe, namely Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow. The two warriors felt the strong willpower that had kept him alive. He was christened and reborn by the two ninjas as one of the elite of the new age of Joes... Spectre.
