NAME: Mirexya Allertse (Mirexya = Family Name)
RACE: Sorence
AGE: 25 (75 Sorence years)
HEIGHT: 1.8 m
WEIGHT: 46 kg
EYES: Black
HAIR: N/A
PHYSIQUE: Totally bad artwork ahoy! http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff237/SaintRazorblade/scan0002.jpg ß Allertse in all his badly drawn glory. I have a coloured version somewhere.
RANK: Mirexya
BRANCH: Marines
PRIMARY MILITARY SPECIALTY: Strategizing & battle manouevers
SECONDARY MILITARY SPECIALTY: Diplomacy
WEAPONS: More bad drawings! http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff237/SaintRazorblade/scan0005.jpg ß Early drawing of Sotopaz gun and Krelmarin dagger
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y273/hybridtheory00/1208072028.jpg ß Sotopaz + Laser
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y273/hybridtheory00/1208072029.jpg ß Sotopaz sans laser
àSotopaz gun: basic gun with one barrel for firing traditional ammunition. Has the option of attaching a secondary barrel for laser ammunition. Handle & trigger specially modified for Sorence use and cannot be used by any other race.
àKrelmarin dagger: Basic dagger with modified handle for Sorence use. Cannot be used by any other race.
EQUIPMENT: For a bad artist, I draw a lot. http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff237/SaintRazorblade/scan0006.jpg ß armour.
à Allertse’s armour is unique for his body. It is emblazoned with the Mirexya family symbol.
PERSONALITY: Allertse is very quiet and is also a linear thinker. He doesn’t sugar coat a thing and often uses plain language, sometimes misunderstanding the complex language of others (even in his own race). Logic might as well be his middle name.
MILITARY HISTORY: Assisted his father in many diplomatic affairs (as a sort of understudy). Has not received any specific medals, but is hailed as one of the best diplomats the Sorence military has seen.
PSYCH PROFILE: Slightly schizophrenic. Also has a slight visual disorder in which he occasionally sees something about five feet to the left of where it actually is (usually people).
PERSONAL QUOTE: “The perseverance to carry on, even in the face of difficulty, is all that has ever really mattered. It is the impetus carrying us towards an end that we cannot yet predict, which is the thought that frightens us most. And still we march on. Still, we march on.”

NAME: Jeff Hammer
RACE: Human
AGE: 28
HEIGHT: 1.78 meters (5’10”)
WEIGHT: (68 kg)
EYES: Grey
HAIR: Brown and short
PHYSIQUE: Muscular.
RANK: Gunnery Sergeant
BRANCH: Marines
PRIMARY MILITARY SPECIALTY: Zero Gravity Operations (Ship to Ship), close quarter combat.
SECONDARY MILITARY SPECIALTY: Small Arms, Communications, and Naval Gunnery Expert.
WEAPONS: Proficient in a number of weapons.
PRIMARY: G4 Assault Rifle
The G4 Assault Rifle fires kinetic rounds and is capable of carrying a secondary barrel. This secondary barrel can be switched out to a number of configurations, so that it can fire drones, grenades, or even fire shotgun rounds.
SECONDARY: G9 MP (See Dark Light’s Profile)
EQUIPMENT: Space Trooper Integrated Armor, demolition charges, three fragmentation grenades, four clips with fifty rounds of Ammo for the G4, four clips with 20 rounds for the G9 MP.
PERSONALITY: Loud and enthusiastic. He tends towards profanity. He is often daring in combat. He tends to reward those that follow his example and cuss out those that cower.
MILITARY HISTORY: Sergeant Hammer joined the Marines ten years ago. In boot camp he excelled in weaponry and hand to hand combat. In reflex tests, he ranked in the top ten percent of the entire Marine Corp.

Shortly after graduating from training, he was posted on the ENC Agincourt. He took part in Operation Clean Sweep, a series of anti-pirate operations. During this time, he was a part of boarding parties. On several occasions he took part in fighting. He was promoted several times. Following his promotion to Sergeant, he was reassigned to the ENC Intrepid.

Aboard the ENC Intrepid, Sergeant Hammer took part in Operation Blood Moon. This operation focused on a group of pirate-mercenaries known as the Blood Legion. Sergeant Hammer received the Navy Cross for acts of singular daring during this time. A hostile ship had attacked the Intrepid and had disabled its weaponry. Sergeant Hammer not only repelled the boarders, but also then led a counter attack, taking over the ship despite heavy resistance. Then, when a second enemy ship appeared, Sergeant Hammer ordered his squad to man the captured ships defenses, before personally manning one by himself. His actions led to the destruction of the second ship. During these actions he was wounded on two separate occasions by enemy fire. His actions turned a certain defeat into a major victory.

After recovering from his injuries, Sergeant Hammer was promoted to Staff Sergeant. He further distinguished himself in the Last Stand of the Blood Legion. Leading a platoon of marines, he successfully breached the Blood Legion’s base, despite receiving heavy fire. Following this, he then led an attack on the pirates that were defending the landing zone.

Following this action, he was promoted to Gunnery Sergeant and moved to the ENC Tripoli.

PSYCH PROFILE: His survival instincts tend towards fight instead of flight. This makes him more inclined to remove danger than run away from it.

PERSONAL QUOTE: “In a battle; the side with less fear wins.”

Military Profile:

NAME: Octavius Constantine Blake
RACE: Genetically-modified Human
AGE: 23
HEIGHT: 1.89 metres (6 ft 2)
WEIGHT: 84kg
EYES: Unnaturally dark green.
HAIR: Messy, wavy long hair.
PHYSIQUE: Slender. Broad shoulders, thin waist. Thin limbs.
RANK: Second Lieutenant
BRANCH: Navy
PRIMARY MILITARY SPECIALTY: Intelligence, Strategy, Communication.
SECONDARY MILITARY SPECIALTY: Security, Counter-Boarding.
WEAPONS: Primarily the G9 Machine Pistol (see DarkLight’s post); on away missions and combat situations uses the H-23 “Dragonfire” Shotgun, not authorised by USA Command. The H-23 is an automatic shotgun with a modified gauge, heavy, but with recoil softener to protect the user. The H-23 is an experimental weapon, famed for its uses by mercenaries. It obtained its Dragonfire nickname from the use of “hot shot”. The ammunition know as “hot shot” is a typical pellet with added Pyrokinetics, allowing them to set alight on impact. The victim is thus shot and burnt simultaneously. http://www.worldwar3d.com/shotgun4.jpg
EQUIPMENT: Light Reflexive Armour giving small protection and maximum movement. Two clips for the G9. Communicator.
PERSONALITY: Difficult and awkward. Socially detached. Hard-worker by nature. Genius-level computer skills, high intelligence. Violently deranged.
“This officer should go far, and the sooner he does, the better. He is a danger to himself and his colleagues.”
- Major Arnold Martins, Commanding Officer, Field Report DC-16578.

MILITARY HISTORY: Octavius joined the Naval Officer Corps at the age of 16, amidst a wave of controversy. However, his age and secret background was accepted despite much attack from inside Naval Command. A command from the highest-level forced his inclusion. He qualified early and moved into the NIC (Naval Intelligence Corps) and was given his commission at the tender age of 18. By 21 he had risen through the ranks through glowing appraisals by his superiors. Attached to the 12thWarhawk Droptroopers in the war, his planning and combat prowess enabled the recovery of two important cities in the Fringe Colonies.
However, as Major, he was assigned to the ENC Indefatigable. After disobedience from a Lieutenant in his command, he shot the officer twice. Miraculously, the man survived, but after a long and turbulent court-martial, Octavius was almost thrown out of the military. Intervention once more from high up prevented his removal and he was instead knocked down to Second Lieutenant. He was also assigned to Defence Duty on a small cruiser.
PSYCH PROFILE: “Doubtless his modified genes have altered some deep psychological balance within the human parts of him, leaving this patient with violent tendencies. His dreams are full of blood and death. My analysis recommends this patient is immediately secured in a maximum-security holding cell before he kills himself or anybody near him.”
- Dr. Gaius Bendtner, Patient Report #45706, U.S.A. Personnel Records
PERSONAL QUOTE: “The United Systems Alliance is the greatest mistake in the history of mankind ... we are united, yet we are distinct, we are together, yet we are cut asunder ... to talk of peace is to lie. Every alliance has been built for war and conquest. There is no lasting salvation in this treaty.”
- From his unpublished manuscript, “The Never-Ending War.”

Our races have suffered severe casualties in these past decades, and with this new foe, we all must do what is necessary to survive. Fighting humanity on the battlefield was a nightmare. Serving alongside them...is an honor.”

He was promoted to the rank of sergeant following the battle. He fought in several space engagements, both as a ship's gunner and as part of boarding parties. He was promoted to Red Shield following effective use of ambushes in the final battle against the Hali tribe.

PSYCH PROFILE: Clear

PERSONAL QUOTE: The dead are worshiped and revered, while the living remain anonymous. Name not the fallen, for they stood in our place. Let my death hold no glory, and let me die forgotten and unknown. Let it not be said that I was among those dead who demanded recognition from the living.
Sometimes you just have to grin and spit in death's face.

NAME: Tsormae Neshtac
RACE: Sorence
AGE: 27
HEIGHT: Approximately 1.5 meters
WEIGHT: Approximately 48 kilograms
EYES: Gray
HAIR: N/A

PHYSIQUE: Tsormae Neshtac has a broken horizontal line pattern on his arms indicating that he was born into the Disixide Family. His feathery wings and furry body are deep, dark blue in color, reminiscent of the sky just after the sun passes beyond the horizon. In contrast, his bare head and arms are a very light blue. The seven head-spikes he bears indicate that he has moved up the scale to the Tsormae Family. There is a single black mark over his right eye. It is an upside down crescent (curve to the bottom instead of the side,) which indicates his given name to those of his race. Neshtac has seventeen of the twenty-two body-spikes a Sorence will grow in their lifetime, indicating that his base age is eighty Sorence years.

OCCUPATION: Scientist

NOTABLE SKILLS: Neshtac is very good with a Krelmarin Dagger. He also specializes in making poisons and temporary paralyzing agents.

PERSONALITY: Patient, Neshtac has no qualms with working at the same thing for years until he perfects it. He has little to no temper and usually appears to be very laid back. As well as being patient, Neshtac is strong-willed. If he sets his mind to something, he will accomplish it no matter what it takes. If someone or something opposes him, he will find his way around them and continue his work until he reaches his goal. Neshtac has often been referred to as obsessive because of this. He will spend days at a time in his laboratory working to create a new poison or to perfect one he has already created. During that time, he hardly eats and he doesn’t sleep.

CAREER HISTORY: Neshtac has moved up through the families for one specific reason: He knows his field well. He has created several poisons for which he receives full recognition. He has also successfully created a temporary paralyzing agent that lasts for forty seconds.

EDUCATION: Basic and continuing Formal education as well as career specific studies

PSYCH PROFILE: Neshtac has no known mental disorders or diseases.
