Interpol Designation - Golden Hammer
CEO of LORINCO, a man who built his financial empire from the ground up. He never makes any public appearances.
Alice Tan
http://img139.imageshack.us/img139/9876/aliceuh1.png[/IMG]
LORINCO Chief Analytics Officer, Director of R & D
Interpol Designation - Green Fairy
Alice is officially recorded as the smartest person in the world and is the Chief Analytics Officer of LORINCO. In truth however, Alice controls most if not all of LORINCOs affairs. Although she is a Loyolan citizen by blood, she harbors an inexplicable grudge against the Loyolan government. Like Golden Hammer, Green Fairy is seldom seen in public. She was once Reuben's girlfriend.
Carlos Tan
http://img167.imageshack.us/img167/4497/carlosnr8.png[/IMG]
LORINCO Chief Operating Officer
Interpol Designation - Silver Bullet
Alice's brother Carlos is a clever, trash-talking asshole with an attitude only matched by his business skills. Trained from birth in all things economic, he has become one of the leading entrepreneurs in the modern world. He abandoned all this when he started working for LORINCO. Above all, Carlos treasures his younger sister and will do anything and everything to protect her.
Jin Lee Lim
http://img77.imageshack.us/img77/2466/jinmi0.png[/IMG]
Secretary to LORINCO CEO
Interpol Designation - Red Queen
Migrated to Loyola from North Korea at age 12 under the promise of education, Jin Lee was tricked and sold off to the prostitution industry instead. Against all odds, she self-studied by day and worked by night. Eventually she was able to work her way up the ladder to become secretary to LORINCO's CEO. Smart, beautiful and skillfull, she will not let anything get in the way of Alice's plans and her own personal revenge against Loyola.
Leon LeBlanc
http://img167.imageshack.us/img167/861/leonejg1.png[/IMG]
LORINCO Head of Security
Interpol Designation - Black Knight
A mercenary for the highest bidder and a former SAS member, Leon is one of the most skilled soldiers in his time. Becoming a CQB instructor to the world's best special forces at the age of 21, LORINCO's offer of money attracted him enough to work for them. As LORINCO's Head of Security, he has joined Alice in her mission, seeking fame, glory and most of all, money.
Gan Bowring
http://img77.imageshack.us/img77/540/ganhq9.png[/IMG]
Bodyguard of LORINCO CEO
Interpol Designation - Blue Moon
Once a highly decorated officer in the Loyola Armed Forces, Gan served in Iran in 2008. During his vacation, his first night "out with the boys" turns out to be a fatal one, as he discovers he has AIDS soon after. He is kicked out of the army, sinks into a deep depression and his girlfriend leaves him. Two years after, he learns that he has one year left to live and with nothing left to lose, he signs up as a bodyguard for LORINCO's CEO. He has recently joined his most risky undertaking yet: Alice's mission.
Rodrigo Mendez
http://img167.imageshack.us/img167/3788/rodrigoiz9.png[/IMG]
LORINCO Chief Communications Officer
Interpol Designation - Pale Horse
LORINCO's Chief Communications Officer is from a normal background and a wealthy and loving family. Unknown (possibly even to his allies) is his penchant for extreme S & M (resulting in the deaths of his partners), snuff and all things twisted. He has joined Alice in her mission so that he can give himself more stimulus.
