The Steak Squad

(The SS initials were unintentional, I swear)

Sometimes, it's better to be surrounded by minions that take care of supervising the whole thing. Or to deal with petty tasks a dictator like me shouldn't lift a finger for. Or to just keep you company, in general. That's what the Steak Squad is for.

A bit of story: The 5 mercenaries that make up the SS are criminals who were sent to work on some rocky planet as a punishment. They were supposed to harvest some kind of precious but unstable mineral.
As it turns out, the whole core of the planet was made up of that mineral. An unfortunate series of events caused the core to become unstable, and threatening to nuke the whole planet. I happened to come by and intercept the distress signal, so I rescued them in the nick of time. Being able to command my army and torture slaves really appealed to them, so they swore loyalty to me and became part of the Tronified Dystopia's elite.

These 5 mercenaries have weird nicknames: Murder, Pain, Destruction, Pleasure, and Troll. Things can get VERY nasty if they intervene. Just take a look at their faces, they're completely insane.

Pleasure


The Green Steak - Pleasure, is the leading scientist, and is LinkThe Dragon.

We're pretty good friends, and do research together. Wields an acid gun and is responsible for organizing the tortures and executions. Also accompanies me in most of my trips.

Murder (formerly called Rape, but the edginess was getting ridiculous)


The White Steak - Murder, is a stealth expert.

Infamous for countless backstabs and other grievious bodily harm, this man's a force to be reckoned with. He uses a custom Omni-Jetpack to move freely throughout the air and climb walls silently.

Pain


The Purple Steak - Pain, is in charge of the military in general.

A jack of all trades and a very good tactitian, he is in charge of abducting people in GGP colonies to populate Bedetopia, and defend the planet otherwise. Pilots the Painbringer 9000, a ship that can carry a lot of soldiers and abductees and is also equipped with a lot of dakka.

Destruction


The Red Steak - Destruction, is... you've already guessed it. A demolitions expert.

He's a cyborg and constantly wears a weird mask because when he was extracting minerals on that rocky planet, a chunk blew up on him, costing him his limbs and face. This is actually a good thing, because his upgrades allow him to pilot a mecha with tons of rocket launchers.
Often keeps a straight face since his mask hides most of his emotions.

Troll


The Yellow Steak - Troll, is in charge of all that is related to computers, communications and engineering.

Bald and horrible, but one of the best engineers out there. She's quite friendly with her allies. A skilled hacker, she has managed to steal countless amounts of money from the GGP. Invents new weapons from time to time.
On the field, she is also very reliable, she loves annoying her enemies with her tesla gun and her "Stormado" launcher.

You might've noticed it, but Murder, Destruction and Pleasure are brothers. A very dysfunctional family, if you ask me.

Also take a look at the military in general.
