BRIEFING:
→ Viper is a suppressed two-tone M1911 chambered in .45 ACP rounds. The shoulder-holster Calvin carries for this is made of black leather and kept under his jacket on the left side. It uses regular ammunition with a seven-round clip, plus one in the chamber, for a balance between mobility and power.

→ Cobra is Viper's lightweight twin brother, a suppressed all-black SIG P226. Cobra utilises subsonic 9mm round variants, is fitted with a small underbarrel laser sight, and is kept in the opposite, right, shoulder holster to Viper.

→ Taipan is a Magpul FMG-9. Of Cretan origin and initially developed as a clandestine stealth weapon, the FMG-9 is chambered in 9mm rounds and fires either fully automatic or in three-round bursts. The most distinctive feature of the FMG, however, is the fact that with one simple motion, it can be folded into a nondescript block reminiscent of a torch with a small light on the top, and the frame of the weapon flicked out again. Normally, Taipan is carried itself in a carry case with an attachable suppressor next to it. The FMG-9 carries 32 9x19mm Parabellum rounds.

→ Python is a Welrod. Developed in the 1940s, the Welrod is a pistol with an integrated suppressor into the barrel, and is actually bolt-action. Magazine fed with an eight round clip and one in the chamber, the Welrod fires .32 ACP subsonic rounds. Calvin maintains that it's one of the coolest and most functional weapons of all time, even if it is a bit slow to fire and somewhat shaky. Alongside the FMG-9, the Welrod is also found in the carry case.

→ Carbon-fibre piano wire is one of the most efficient strangulation tools. The garrote itself, in conception, was immortalised by the early Cerisian mafia, but it's quick, efficient, silent, and nowhere near as messy as a gunshot. Comprised of two handles and a length of extendable wire strapped between them, Calvin keeps his fibre wire in his pocket.

→ Etorphine, colloquially known as M99, is a semi-synthetic opioid which acts as both an analgesic and anaesthetic. In the dosages Calvin possesses it with, it knocks out and immobilises a target for a good few hours. For kidnapping jobs or less-lethal methods, Calvin usually carries a case filled with five syringes full of enough Etorphine to knock someone out for two-to-three hours, which he restocks after every job.

→ A karambit is a small hand-held blade of Indonesian origin which doubles as a survival tool and weapon. Calvin's is wickedly sharp and well curved so that he can strike with it as an extension of his own arm, usually keeping it sheathed at his right ankle.

→ Iguana is a small, manually-folding pocket knife. Smaller than a switchblade and bigger than the karambit, Calvin's pocket knife is typically found in his left inner jacket pocket, so it can be drawn swiftly and efficiently.

→ Lizard is a trigger-action switchblade. A stylised, small black bar, pressing the spring-loaded lever causes a pointed, double-edged blade to jump out of the end of the bar, producing a deadly weapon. Typically strapped to the top of Calvin's right wrist, by applying enough pressure, Calvin can add a deadly point to the end of one of his already formidable punches.

→ Cayman is a seven and a half inch curved Cretan special forces surplus combat knife. Good for just about anything, Calvin's preferred use for this beast is a good bit of stabbing or slashing. Usually holstered at his right side against his belt, sheathed against his thigh, Calvin both conceals this weapon with his jacket and provides adequate accessibility to it on the move. Tapered and curved, as with most of his blades, Cayman is definitely one of the job.

→ The Alligator Twins are a pair of stainless steel identical ninjatou and a pair of weapons Calvin is incredibly skilled with. Normally holstered in a shared sheath at the small of Calvin's back, these two have seen more than their fair share of blood, and are always kept razor sharp incase there's more. Much like his other weapons, instead of regular ninjatou, Calvin's ninjatou are tapered on both ends for extra slashing efficiency.

→ Dragon is the ace in the hole. Calvin's perfect weapon. A stylised carbon-fibre machete longer than the ninjatou but shorter than an actual sword, this weapon is insanely strong and durable. Able to hack through wood, flesh, and even bone with ease, it shears through most organic materials like butter and can dole out lethal damage in moments. Dragon is sheathed against the left side of Calvin's stomach, pointing downwards, with the hilt drawing up to just underneath Viper's holster for excellent mobility and ease of access.

→ The 1965 E-Type Jaguar is a beauty of a car by any stretch of the imagination, and in this deep black sheen it is certainly no exception. A convertible coupé and one of the most desirable vintage Cretan cars, the E-Type is the product of much envy wherever Calvin drives, and there's just one rule - touch it and you're a dead man.

→ For the more lucrative stunts, Calvin also has a Lamborghini Murcielago, the 2004 edition. Whilst not as classy as the E-Type nor as subtle, when it comes to racing through city streets at night, there's nothing quite like it. A beautiful Cerisian car and a testament to Calvin's heritage, the Murcielago scarcely leaves Calvin's garage in London - normally he hires or steals getaway cars.

→ These Osiris sunglasses cost a pretty penny, but they're not just for show; wired into the frame and the actual lenses themselves are small video cameras which record at a touch of the button, both audio and video. The range isn't perfect, and they don't allow the user to survey from miles away, requiring fairly close proximity, but if you can get that far, then they work a dream. Playback requires a small mobile unit, such as Calvin's iPhone, but the audio quality is at best, grainy.

SPECIAL ABILITIES:
→ Dual-Wielding: Over time, Calvin has honed his skills to the point that when fighting his arms are essentially ambidextrous, and he has as much skill in his right hand (the "dominant" one) as he does his left. This means that he can dual-wield pistols or blades with aplomb.
