As a long time fan of the realm of 007, I have often wondered how the remaining members of the 00 section would be protrayed.

Each of them must have their own special skills, they tragic flaws, hangups and habits.

As the numberal 7 represents perfection in many relgions and cultures, I would expect the other members of MI6 to be excellent at meny things - but NOT perfect by any means.

Okay boy and girls, lets use ten as a simplified 00 section. 007 is already accounted for.

IN BRIEF:

Who are the other 00's.

By number list them from 001 - 0010
List their gender. M, F
Their appearance, ie., Attractive, Normal, Ugly, etc.
Their Special Skills, Weapons, Explosives, Seduction, Driving, etc.
One or two habits (good or bad) Drinking, Smoking, Drugs, etc.
A Weakness, ie, addicted to gambling, members of the opposite sex, etc.
Perhaps a few embellishments.

Who do YOU thnkg they are?

[Matt O'S oo4]

Matthew O'Shawnassey.
Service code and rank: 004

Both parents were lost when he was rather young.
He has a brother. All official documention of this fact has been disavowed.

Graduate of Cambridge University.

Enlisted in the R.A.F. Rose to the rank of Wing Commander.

Gained notice by MI6 due to his abilities and high service record.

Excellent hand to hand, fire combat, flying skills. Highly skilled, but, at times, considered to be a bit reckless behind the wheel of a car. Excells on a motorcycle. Speaks 12 languages. 7 of them with 94+% fluency.

6' 2", 225 lbs., 004 is considered quite attractive. Auburn hair and blue eyes. Severla scars from his many missions over the years. He is fortunate none are visable, even when he is very casually dressed.

Drinks a fair amount of about anything. However, prefers an excellent brand of scotch over everything if it is available.

A highly dedicated and loyal agent to both, MI6 and his fellow 00's, 004 has the kind of personality that puts his heart into his work. You do it to the best of your ability - period. If his trust is violated, 004 may wait years to put the wrongs to right - but he will.

Clowning around and verbal banter are excellent weapons. 004's wit has placed him into and gotten him out of trouble on countless occasions.

A hopeless romantic at heart, 004 passions can temporaily consume him, but, he has never let it interfere with doing the job.

[terminus]

Drake Fairchild, 003

Gender: M

Appearance: Attractive in a buttoned down sort of way. He is shorter than expected. He has black hair and brown eyes. He is clean shaven. His ears are pierced but he does not always wear piercings.

Special Skills:

He can speak:
French, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Japanese, Arabic and Chinese.

He prefers to use a rifle but is capable with a revolver. He can drive any boat and can direct any submarine. He was also taught to drive at high speeds and off road and finished that course with one hundred percent.

He knows kung fu but his fighting technique is generally 'anything goes'.

Habits:

He tends to forget to eat but often drinks though he restricts himself to fruit juices as opposed to alcoholic beverages. He enjoys dancing and he has an eye for a beautiful ... man.

Weakness:

He jumps to conclusions directed by his emotions. He is just lucky that his emotions usually proove to be correct.



Only 001, 006 and 0010 left to claim. My, this is prooving to be a rather interesting Double Oh Section, isn't it !?!

[Loomis]

David Chambers, 001

Gender: M

Education: Durham University

Appearance: Not especially good-looking, but physically very imposing. Slight facial resemblance to former British Prime Minister John Major.

Short but powerfully-built, Chambers is and always has been a fitness fanatic (and a lifelong non-smoker and teetotaller). Not much fun to be around (he is supremely arrogant and abrasive as well as notoriously tightfisted, and holds a number of highly unpleasant, reactionary views), he is nonetheless a great guy to have on your side in a sticky situation. Highly proficient in Muay Thai.

After completing a degree in English at Durham, Chambers took a year off and went to Thailand, where he quickly became obsessed with Thai culture. Deciding to stay, he became totally fluent in Thai after a couple of years, supporting himself by working as an English teacher, a photographer and a journalist. He married a Thai woman, and started a very successful consultancy firm for foreign investors. Before long, he was a multi-millionaire, and is easily the wealthiest of the Double-0s (he never allows his colleagues to forget that fact). A chance meeting with a staff member at the British Embassy in Bangkok - who was impressed not only by his business skills but also by his extraordinary fluency in the language many long-term expats cannot even order a beer in - led to his being asked to keep his eyes open on behalf of MI6 and report any supicious activities among the companies he dealt with. Several escapades later, Chambers was "our man in Bangkok".

Chambers helped bring down a British company in league with Thai heroin dealers, but the drug barons had their revenge: Chambers' wife and young son were murdered, although Chambers later caught up with the assassins and used his Muay Thai skills to send them to the morgue. A man possessed with grief, rage and the lust to kill, Chambers accepted an invitation to join MI6, selling his company, and at the age of 35 became a Double-0. He lives alone in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire, commuting to London by train every day when not on assignment abroad. There has recently been some talk that he might remarry, although Moneypenny is the only member of MI6 to whom he confides any details of his private life. Whenever he has holiday time, Chambers travels to his beloved Bangkok.

Special Skills:
Muay Thai. Exceptional business acumen. An excellent liar. Able to survive on very little sleep (has rarely slept for more than three or four hours at a time in his life).

He can speak:
English, Thai.

Not an especially good shot. Accidentally killed an innocent bystander in a shootout in Rome in 1999, and wounded another in a shootout in Saigon in 2001. Did he care? Did he f----

Habits:

A stickler for punctuality. Often whistles.

Weakness:

Poor social skills (and has something of a Mutual Loathing Society going on with Bill Tanner; has only met Bond twice, and very briefly both times, but would probably get on badly with Bond, too). Extremely mean with money.

0010

Name: Unknown. 0010 was long thought to be a tax dodge created by MI6 for accounting purposes, someone to blame for operations that went wrong, or just a fantasy figure designed to scare children senseless, like Carl Lewis or Hamburglar (two of many aliases, see below). However, in a shocking turn of events, 0010 was last year revealed to have existed all along. No longer an accounting error, no longer the equivalent of having a dog in the room upon which one heaps the blame for one's own flatulence, fed up with being blamed for all the jobs nobody else wanted to do, 0010 has gone rogue; beyond MI6 control, 0010 is out there somewhere, ready to kill. Or if not kill, leave someone really very sore and lacrimose.

Known aliases: Kevin the Gerbil; Zoltar from Battle of the Planets; Floella Benjamin; Spiro Agnew; Charterhouse School; the Wythenshawe Rotary Club; Ffyon Hague; the city of Akron, Ohio; a partially undernourished Finn.

Unknown aliases: Everybody else. Suspect everybody. They could be 0010. Anyone you pass in the street. Anyone. Lock your doors. Lock them. All of them. Are you sure they're locked? He can still get in, you know. Killed the Syrian Minister of Transport by leaping out of his 'fridge. There he was, poor bloke, one minute sniffing some cheese and next minute, hacked to death by some kohl rabi (whatever that might be). What's that creaking on the stairs? What's that strange gurgle in the pipes? Could it be 0010? Think about that. Pleasant dreams.

Favourite killing method: Chinese burn.
Second favourite method: Assisted suicide. "Assisted" in the sense that he provides the gun. And the bullet. And the finger pulling the trigger. Suicide in that he provides the motivation. He will always send his intended victim a message 24 hours before the kill in which he describes his action thus:-

*0010 reaches for gun*
*0010 does some rubbish are you actually reading this?*
*0010 does something massively self-indulgent let's just turn a once significant message board into something for 0010 and his pals oh here comes some reference to alcohol are we really this bored God almighty you're really persisting with this aren't you surely you want to die now?*

and



leaving intended victim with a death craving impossible to withstand. Extinction is but a small blessing.

Third favourite method: Paper cut from an Arthur Hailey novel
Fourth favourite method: Piano wire to the nadgers

Principal weakness: Inability to understand the meaning of the word "favourite"

Other weaknesses: Dog biscuits, pork scratchings, bathing in non-vintage champagne, farming bees for their fur and telling fat girls that they would have been beautiful if they had been around before WWII (so he wouldn't have had to meet them).

Strengths: What, apart from the fact that nobody's ever seen him and he can disguise himself as inanimate objects (eg Floella Benjamin)? What more do you people want? Blood? (Although, technically, he can give you that. Your own. In a bin bag).

Claimed strengths (more a boast): Will seduce birds by inviting them to drink his Sticky White Love Piss cocktail. Sounds "impressive"; actually, it's a cup of milk. Which he's had a quick wank into. Nice man.

Height: Thought to be tall, but given that nobody has ever seen 0010, could be quite short too. "Medium", then.

Age: Unknown. Between 9 and 90. But suspect anyone under 8 too. That isn't a toy you know; it could be a snub nosed mauser. Or a toy. That kid's looking at you funny. Could be 0010. Avoid doubt - pack the kid off to Guantanamo Bay and forget about him. Do the same for anyone over 90. Old people are rubbish anyway.

Hair: Plentiful; glossy and black. Shame it's all the way down his back and under his fingernails.

Smell: Smells like asparagus wee. Something of a disadvantage in stealth work, he will (accordingly) only kill people who have recently eaten asparagus. Often disguises self as waiter. Often forces asparagus upon you. If offered asparagus in a restaurant, refuse. Do not not accuse the waiter of being 0010. He will only proceed to take your nose off with a spoon and cave your head in with a gravy boat (see file "Killing of Syrian Foreign Minister, 1996"; also see "What's he got against us?" by the Syrians, 1998).

Special skills: Persuading the moon to shine. Knows what an asterisk is meant to be used for. Can draw an ampersand without removing his pen from the paper. Removing tendons with his teeth. Knobbing birds and driving fast and reminding women of their place. A committed environmentalist, he will always roll a fat girl back into the sea before Greenpeace get to her. A committed internationalist, he will then harpoon said corpulent waste of good jugs, and sell her/it (barely qualifies as a her) to Norwegian Kenneth, a noted contact in the margerine trade (prior to his death in a "suicide" (lopping off his own head with a tin opener) - possibly assisted by 0010; the finding of the note by Kenneth's body, reading

*Norwegian Kenneth grins and blah blah blah blah blah blah rubbish waffle self indulgence and blah blah blah and oh God kill me now why do you torment me?*

- it can't be lightly dismissed)

Gender: All three. At once. If he gets lucky. Or it's Friday.

Personality: Staggeringly charmless. A monument to colossal ignorance. Very possibly illiterate and definitely emotionally unbalanced. Long suspected to be a member of CBn as a result, this connection was ruled out on the basis that he knew who Sean Connery was.

History: Recruited from the British Army and we haven't changed him one bit. So it's their fault.

Current mission: Whatever he damn well feels like. Are you going to argue with him? The truth is, we can't find him. He finds you...

er...



(Whatever that's meant to mean)
