The A-Team
In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a
military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men
promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade. Today,
still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of
fortune. Now they frequent Finlander's Tavern. If you have a
problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them-
maybe you can hire The A-Team.

Eric Draven
The unliving paragon of vigilante justice. You
may know him from "The Crow." If you should chance upon
him in the tavern, leave him to his brooding reverie of
days past. His work is endless, and his time for rest is
limited.

Buliwyf and the 13 Warriors
Well traveled, and widely known for their valor and
wisdom. They laugh heartily at modern notions of the Viking,
especially that they ever wore silly horns on their helmets.
Their merry making can be heard for miles around as they lift
a flagon of mead and sing the battle songs of heroes past.
"Lo there do I see my father. Lo there do I see my
mother, and my sisters and my brothers. Lo do I see the line
of my people back to its beginning. Lo they do call to me and
bid me take my place among them, in the Halls of Valhalla,
where the brave may live forever."
Magnum, Rick, T.C., and Higgins
Between cases, when needing a change of pace from
Hawaiian Paradise, they forgo the King Kamahamaha Club and
take an Island Hoppers charter to the Finlander's
Tavern.
Kevin Flynn
Now the CEO of Encomm, he can still forge a Group Six
access with his eyes closed. In the modern era there's a game
console in every home, but his massive arcade still pulls in
as big a crowd as ever, partying and dumping coins into Space
Paranoids and Matrix Blasters. Flynn astutely points out that
the modern world often resembles a circuit board- a cold mug
at The Tavern can slow it all down.
Wedge Antilles
In a word-- a Survivor. Highly decorated and a critical
member of the Rebel Alliance, yet relatively unknown, Wedge is
a quiet hero. He was a critical element of the attack on the
first Death Star, developed an innovative technique to use tow
cables to entangle Imperial Assault Transports and salvage the
retreat at Hoth, and spearheaded the attack on the second
Death Star. Wedge has always embodied the luck, loyalty,
confidence, and courage required of every Rebel pilot.
Teddy
Supertoys last all summer. Teddy is a tireless
protector of unceasing loyalty. His nature does not allow him
personal happiness or sadness, so his purpose lies in aiding
the well-being of others. But in a real way, he will always be
satisfied and at peace by virtue of his incorrupt purpose. His
pure and simple wisdom is untarnished by the wants and needs
of the physical world.

Crockett and Tubbs
Ever consider a career in Southern law
enforcement? Fed up with the stress, the System, and
years of cover so deep that true identity becomes
blurred, they now come to Finlander's Tavern to relax
after a good bust. Seen here with their badass Ferrari
Daytona Spyder.
Li Mu Bai
A noble and gentle 'wuxia'- a mystic paladin of
the Chinese Confucian era. He has given up his fabled
sword, The Green Destiny, as a symbol of his journey
from warrior to ascetic. Detached from the world yet
influential in its path, he is the true spirit of
Daoism. Don't be put off by his quiet nature or humbled
by his presence, he will gladly trade stories or
meditations over a cup of tea.
Legolas and Gimli
You will not find two more genuine friends,
which- by virtue of their seemingly great differences-
was not always the truth. Legolas Greenleaf, an elven
son of the forests: Light in both tread and manner, he
lives with the grace and wisdom imparted by 2 millennia
of life in war and peace. Gimli, son of Gloin:
thoroughly dwarven, sturdy and direct. His ostensible
dwarven greed is in fact a pursuit of subterranean
beauty. Their friendship came to be based upon a mutual
love of beauty: Legolas the beauty of sylvan groves,
Gimli that of mineral artistry. They now frequent the
Finlander's Tavern during their travels, where elven
wine and Dwarven ale both flow freely.

Guile
In America,
we fight for friends. Guile lost his best friend Charlie
in a military operation gone bad decades ago in Cambodia.
His life from that point forwards became a single-minded quest
for revenge- cold, hard, and final. After countless
years of intense training and vigilante justice on the streets
worldwide, the underworld figures responsible disappeared one
by one until they were no more. Then suddenly, as though
waking from a long dream, Guile's quest was over, and he was
Family Man and Citizen Soldier once again. Charlie's
soul- and his own- were now at peace. Beer might never
quite taste the same without his old friend at his side, but
Guile will never hesitate to lift a mug of cold American brew
in honor of those who fight for what's right.
