Garrick Page

https://i.imgur.com/s8VydOD.jpg

Sex: Male

Age: 33

Height: 6'0"

Not much is known about his early life. Orphaned at a young age, young Page was bounced between many different foster homes. His home became the streets, where he learned to become self reliant. Keen eyes and deft hands made him quite the gambler, often able to swindle even the most observant people without them knowing.

At age 15 he first came on the scene running with a gang of small time criminals on the moon of Marimar. In and out of jail for petty theft, bribery, and several accounts of assault and criminal mischief, Page was slapped with a bad reputation.

Age 20: Page leaves Marimar in a stolen and restored FC-4500 Freighter. Arrives on Rhydin to finish repairs. Here he met Byron Vance, a local owner and proprietor of the Outrider Landing Port/Garage, his 3 sons (Argento, Toren, and Philo) and his daughter Annikah. Byron and Page hit it off, becoming close friends, bonding through the improvements they make to the old freighter, dubbing it "The Moldy Fig". Working for Vance in order to pay off his modifcations, Page becomes a more adept pilot, flying everything from heavy cruisers to snub racers in the sandy Northern Wastes of Rhydin. He also becomes a fair journeyman mechanic, learning the basics of ship repair (and also that the slapdash work he'd done on the Fig to get her to fly should probably have killed him.)

He becomes fast friends with Vance's daughter, much to his chagrin. Sensing a possible attraction, Vance continually warns Page to keep his distance and where the line is drawn in their friendship.

Age 22: Page leaves Rhydin with his ship, promising to keep in contact with the Vance family, setting out to find his fortune. His criminal records show a string of incidences involving interactions with a criminal element. His services as a smuggler become more and more in demand as the years go on. Records here are spotty at best, as the smuggler never stayed in one place long.

Age 25: Byron Vance dies of leukemia. Page returns to Rhydin for the funeral. Helps Annikah Vance secure her father's business, becoming the new owner. He leaves after 2 weeks.

Age 29: Page lands in trouble with crime boss Finnick Gorman after a smuggling operation goes sour. While working out the problem, he stays with the Vance's. One night, he and Annikah have a 3 day fling that ends when Page is blackmailed into sexual relations by Gorman's daughter. Page leaves Rhydin.

Little else is known about the intervening time other than a string of criminal activities all across the galaxy.

Age 16: Annikah drops out of school to continue her training as a mechanic, learning how to program and manipulate computer systems, as well as the finer points of FTL navigation. Ranked 2nd in her class in flight simulators, she built up her skills as a pilot, specializing as a bush pilot.

Age 18: Annikah graduates among the top of her class, immediately going back to work for her father. It is here she first met 20 year old Garrick Page. The two strike up a friendship as they modify and repair his newly acquired FC-4500 freighter. Most of the ship's systems are programmed by the young woman.

Age 20: Page leaves Rhydin. Byron Vance is diagnosed with Leukemia. Most of the day to day operations shift over to Annikah as she demands her father rest while he fights the disease.

Age 21: Byron's cancer goes into remission. Page returns for her 21st birthday. Much to her father's chagrin, she drunkenly proposes to Page. Thankfully, she remembers none of it.

Nara Rey · Date: 2016-02-21 14:55 EST

Nara Rey

http://i.imgur.com/BTIH1TO.jpg

Sex: Female

Age: 31

Height: 5'7"

Nara was born on a planet called Broma, a desert world known for it's production of ship fuel. Her parents were merchants in the city markets, selling trinkets, jewelry, and various sundry items. Not much is know about those early years, as at age 10, her parents were among the victims of a village massacre that left Nara the sole survivor, stowed away in a hidden cellar. From there, she moved to the capitol city of Raygar On her own in a dangerous world populated by murders, rapists, and thieves, Nara learned to survive by any means necessary.

Age 12: Nara kills her first man. A local palace guard tried to pull her into his tent after catching her stealing fruit from a stand. When he got her alone, he attempted to sexually assault the girl. A quick slash of her knife and splatter of blood and it was over. The young girl retreated into the city, as the City Guard hunted her. When things seemed the most dire, she was pulled to sanctuary by a member of the Order of the Wolf, a league of assassins. The blood spattered child was taken in and fed. After much deliberation, the leader of the Order agreed to train her. She becomes proficient in many forms of armed and unarmed combat.

Age 16: Nara performs her first solo hit on a foreign dignitary visiting the planet to discuss an accord that would see Broma placed under the direct oversight of the Spacing Guild, thus putting the Order in considerable danger. Disguised as a dancer, Nara slips into a grand banquet in his honor her fan loaded with poison needles. Two hours into the banquet, Nara finds herself in front of the man, her face hidden behind a veil as she writhed and swayed to the music, her emerald green eyes and alabaster skin tantalizing the man. With a flick of her fan, 5 tiny needles embedded themselves in the man's throat. It wasn't until Nara and the rest of the dancers sauntered off to thunderous applause that anyone noticed the Ambassador was falling into a violent seizure. The gathered throng witnessed him shake so hard, he broke his own back before finally succumbing in an agonized rictus.

Age 17: Nara finds the men who killed her parents. In a fit of rage she slaughters 8 of the 9 men in the room, leaving the last mutilated and blind, after promising him that she would be the last thing that he sees. Their bodies are left hanging from the palace gates for all to see, the 9th howling and moaning on useless legs to the terror of all those around him. For her wholesale slaughter and public display of unapproved marks, she is banished from the order. Nara takes the money collected from her marks and heads to the spaceport.

Age 18-20: Nara finds herself in the core systems, finding work as a freelance operator, collecting money and tying up loose ends for the highest bidder. She earns a reputation as a woman who can get things done, no matter the job. She is hired on to lead a crew of mercs to bring down a local drug kingpin. It was here that she met the gargantuan Korrivani immigrant, Cyrus Rana. When they arrived at the location, they found that it was a set up. A firefight ensued where most of their team was killed and Nara was wounded. It is Cyrus who pulls her from the fray. Once again, on the run, the two strike up a partnership. Over the next few years, the two strike up a plan, finding and wiping out everyone involved in the betrayal that nearly killed them.

Age 21 Nara and Cyrus part ways, but remain close friends. She strikes out on her own, taking up a profession as a bounty hunter. For the next ten years, she remains busy, successfully completing contract after contract. She is a force to be reckoned with.

Boggs · Date: 2016-02-21 16:34 EST

Leland Boggs

DECEASED

http://i.imgur.com/YqdGTCt.jpg

Sex: Male

Age: 53

Height: 6'1"

Boggs is a Fiorian, born on the outer rim world of Fioria 117. His mother was a whore and his father a drug dealer. His only knowledge of his father came from repeat visits to his mother as a client. Often left in the care of the whores few were willing to pay for, Boggs was neglected and barely survived his young life.

Age 5: Boggs learns his father was stabbed repeatedly over outstanding debts to a local crime lord and dies on the filthy streets of the city. His mother goes through a string of abusive, addict boyfriends who turn their vioent attentions on him when not focusing on her.

Age 10: Boggs joins a gang called the Ravagers, landing in repeated trouble with the law for vandalism, robbery, assault, breaking and entering, and once suspicion of arson. His mother marries an alcoholic steel worker, retiring from her life as a prostitute.

Age 15: Boggs returns home one night to find his mother with a black eye. This sets the young thug off, lunging at his step father as soon as he sees him. A vicious fight ensues that leaves him with a gnarly face scar from a broken bottle. In the end, Boggs grabbed a lead pipe and beats his stepfather into a sloppy, bloody, lifeless mess. Under the sounds of his mother's chilling screams, he slips out and goes on the run. Once his scars are treated and stitched, he finds a young traveler about the leave the planet, lures him away and kills him, stealing his identity. Boggs leaves Fioria forever.

Age 16: Boggs arrives at Naryan Outpost, immediately seeking out the nearest gang and falling in with the crew.

Age 25: Boggs, having risen through the ranks, suggests unifying the 12 competing gangs of Naryan Outpost. Within the year, most of them have fallen in-line, sparking a war between the Alliance and the remaining 8. It is bloody, sneaky, and underhanded. The streets and alleyways seemingly never far-off from an explosion or blaster fire. Within a year, the hold-outs are assimilated or wiped out.

Age 35-53: After a bloody revolution, leaving the overseer of the Alliance jettisoned out an airlock, Boggs takes control. He is a ruthless, merciless leader, surrounding himself with loyal guards, plunging the Naryan Outpost into a hotbed of crime. Eventually he commandeers a deep-space mining vessel and has it converted into his own personal warship called The Allomerus. In secret, he begins building a small army, collecting small fighters from scrap yards, restoring them to working order. His business remains small enough not to attract too much attention from the Spacing Guild and his small army continues to grow as word spreads through the underworld.

Subject Delta · Date: 2016-03-24 20:44 EST

Subject Delta

http://i.imgur.com/ekJ9Mrs.jpg
Delta with her brother Charlie. <Deceased>

Age: 18

Height: 6'1" (Augmented)

Little is known about Delta's past. She is an experiment conducted by a top secret arm of the United Systems Military to create a perfect soldier. The experiment ended in catastrophe when her fellow inductees began experiencing behavioral issues, often entering a violent fugue state and attempting to kill all those around them.

Delta is the lone survivor of an attempt to bury the program and all involved.

Publicly, she does not exist and is considered a grave threat to any who come in contact with her.

She is impossibly strong, incredibly fast, and ruthlessly determined. Mental and Physical conditioning have taught her to be a morally ambiguous killing machine. But, as the behavioral conditioning begins to break down, she is finding that the universe and her place in it is not what she was taught it was.

Loren Metcalfe · Date: 2016-03-25 19:20 EST

Major Loren Katherine Metcalfe

http://i.imgur.com/jdRRlrR.png

Sex: Female

Age: 51

Height: 5'7"

Loren Metcalfe was born on Boros to Helena and Thomas Metcalfe. Her father was a decorated military hero, having earned several purple hearts and a medal of valor for his actions in combat over a long career. Loren idolized her father, studying military history, especially the battles he had been a part of. At a young age, it was clear Loren was destined for greatness. She showed an astounding aptitude for the sciences. Throughout her school career she would be at the top of her classes.

Age 10: Thomas was deployed to a skirmish in the Meridian Sector. Insurgents attacked his platoon and Thomas did not survive. Emboldened by her father's sacrifice, young Loren insisted upon being enrolled in the Citadel's highly exclusive Junior Officer Training program. After passing every test they threw at her, she was in. Being the daughter of war hero earned her no friends, as most people believed she was only allowed in out of pity. Unswayed, Loren proved herself a natural leader, proving capable and unflinching in simulated combat exercises, often leading her team to victory.

Age 12: She embarrasses an older classmate, William Gorman during a training exercise when he choked under pressure. She is lured to the training room and attacked, sustaining a laceration down her right eyebrow from a concealed knife. Despite her wounds and being much younger and smaller than her opponent, Loren gains the upper hand, beating the older boy into unconsciousness. When questioned about the incident, she simply told her instructors they were sparring and it had gotten out of hand. Both were given suspensions and demerits on their records, but neither were expelled as they should have been. Her victory had asserted her as someone the other students did not want to mess with. Gorman, humbled by Loren became a constant second in command, backing each other during simulations and tactical exercises.

Age 14: Valarian operatives attempt to assassinate the Noverian Prime Minister. The Valarian Wars begin.

Age 15: Loren graduates two years early, immediately enlisting in the USM. After a brief training period, her academy record earns her a spot in the elite 506th Mobile Infantry unit.

Age 16: Loren's first deployment. The 506th are dropped on Candria, the 2nd moon of the gas giant Teramin. Faulty intel leads to her team being ambushed. Loren is wounded when a Laserblade slashes through her armor, cutting her across the back from shoulder to hip. She and her squad barely manage to escape. Loren spends the next 3 months in the hospital.

Age 17: Loren returns to combat. Over the next year, the 506th cuts a bloody path through Valarian forces on several different planets.

Age 18: William Gorman passes muster and is placed with the 506th. Once again, he and Loren become an indispensable team.

Age 22: Loren and Gorman have risen through the ranks as Squad Leader and her Second In Command. They lead a series of successful missions securing victories for several campaigns in the war. The two become romantically involved, keeping it a secret from their superiors.

Age 23: Gorman is killed in the line of duty, sacrificing himself for Loren by taking a laser blade through the stomach for her. She is severely wounded in the attack, but manages to dispatch Gorman's killer.

Age 24: Now a Lieutenant, Loren runs the 506th, operating out of the battleship Resolute. Her tactical precision brings them nothing but victory, decimating her opponents in every battle.

Age 26: After an attack leaves her the superior officer on the Resolute, Loren manages to turn the tide, initiates a decisive counter-attack on the Valarians. The remaining forces retreat to the Valarian home planet of Fall. Under her command, USM forces blockade the planet. Loren suggests an orbital bombardment of the Valarians. Few oppose her and the strike begins. All Valarians on the surface are wiped out and the surface of the planet is burned to glass. Fall is rendered uninhabitable. The Valarian War ends after 12 years. Loren is rewarded the Distinguished Service Medal for her actions on the Battle of Fall.

Age 27: Loren, along with the best and brightest minds in the USM, creates the Special Projects Group on . A scientific arm of the USM, they focus on top secret weapons and spacecraft development. Loren starts work on her own pet project: The Praetorian Initiative. Intent on creating genetically and cybernetically enhanced super soldiers. The best and brightest soldiers are offered the opportunity, and many sign up. Their lives are signed away to the program and false official stories made up to tell their families.

Age 28: Initial tests are met with catastrophic failure. Unable to endure the mental conditioning and rejecting the cybernetic implants, subjects begin attacking each other and the entire project is destroyed and taken back to step 1.

Age 32: Huge advances in neural implants lead to a re-institution of the Praetorian Initiative. R&D begins anew.

Age 43: After discovering that young humans are better able to physically and mentally adapt to the genetic and cybernetic augmentation, Loren devises and implements Operation Light Harvest. 30 exceptional young boys and girls are brought into the program. Housed in a classified building called Sanctum, they enter an unforgiving and harsh training program to prepare them to begin the process of becoming Praetorian soldiers. Among them are a young brother and sister who are given the names Charlie and Delta.

Age 48: The cadets, now ranging from 13-15, undergo the rigorous physical augmentation process. 18 of them do not survive the process. The remaining 12 have been transformed. Memories of their former lives, parents, childhood, anything of who they were have been programmed away. There is nothing before the Program. The Praetorian Soldiers operate in secrecy with deadly efficiency. The experiment is a qualified success.

Age 49: Loren is horrified as Subject Alpha experiences a mental breakdown and attacks his squadmates during combat. He is incapacitated by one of the other Praetorian. Alpha, the oldest Praetorian at is restrained and taken back for study. When they are done, he is disposed of, never to be seen again. Questions and concerns about the endurance and success of the Praetorian Initiative arise. If one could fall, how many more could do the same?

Fleet Admiral Simon Lanning

Sex: Male

Age: 68

Height: 6'0"

A career military man, Simon Lanning lied about his age and joined the USM at the young age of 15. He is a combat veteran of over 138 campaigns and a 7 time recipient of the purple heart for wounds suffered over countless planets.

Simon is widely regarded by his peers and subordinates as one of the finest tacticians and leaders the USM has ever seen. A calm demeanor and sense of fairness sets his people at ease. But God help the man who takes his fatherly manner to mean he is hesitant to act. Simon remains a soldier at heart and does not shrink from making tough choices that might cost lives in order to benefit the greater good.
