M16A4 Sierra

The M16A4 "Sierra" is Victor Cutter's trademark weapon that he used from 2003 to 2024.

Allies[]

Being half-Canadian, Cutter participated in joint Canadian operations with several agents of the CSIS during the Iranian-American War. His link with the CSIS was in accordance to his name, Cutter, since his father worked with Canadian intelligence in the 1980s. Because of the time that he worked with Canada, intelligence agencies in the Commonwealth of Nations, including the ASIS, began befriending Cutter.

During his time with the CIA, Cutter had gained allies who worked with the CBP, CIS, DEA, FBI, ICE, NCIS, and the NSA. Cutter had over 251 federal agents on his side during CIA peacetime operations between 2015 and 2020.

Because of his strong support for Israel, Cutter had gained friends from the Mossad in Tel Aviv. From 2015 to 2020, Cutter was working with the CIA and underwent covert operations with operatives from the Mossad.

After 2022, Cutter had new friends from the FSB, GRU, and SVR. When the Russian Federation joined GUARDIAN, the United States allowed open trade and intelligence-sharing with Russia and vice versa. That was when Cutter was being recognized around the intelligence community of the democratic world and Russia.

However, some thought of Cutter's combat techniques as highly unorthodox, drawing criticism from the GIGN and some other special operations units. The British Special Air Service was the first to criticize Cutter. Even with others criticizing him, Cutter was regarded as one of the greatest special operators in USSOCOM, which is otherwise known as the United States Special Operations Command.

Unintentionally, Cutter was gaining power in the military of the democratic world because of the allies that he gained throughout his career. As a result, Cutter was strengthening the militarized legacy of his family name. In 2017, Cutter helped develop the Democratic Intelligence Community, a community of intelligence agencies that were part of the democratic world.

He also met a Monkey sidekick, Ham. He comes from a family of great ape achievers, his grandfather holding the prestigious distinction of being the first monkey in space. Ham initially spends his days acting as a cannonball for his local circus (pretty cool in itself), before heading off to space in order to save the Earth from imminent doom. We’d say he’s done quite well for himself!
