Name: James Steelheart
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Height: 5'9''
Weight: 167 lbs
Eye Color: Sapphire Blue
Hair Color: Brown

Other Information: Psychodriver
Character Theme: Hero's Quest

Appearance: For some people, years of physical training would lead to a muscular structure. For James, years of training have left him with a hint of toned muscle on his narrow frame. He doesn't have much fat, with narrow shoulders and long limbs. He looks more at home in a pool among professional swimmers than among the stereotypical idea of muscled heroes. He errs on the pale side of skin tones due to his primarily indoor life and burns quite easily. He has no notable markings or marring. His hair is often a mess kept cut short for ease of management. Who the hell has time to manage such a mop these days?

Biography:
James was born with a genetic heart defect that resulted in his adoption by a Lunarian Knight. The defect was repaired over his toddler years, allowing him a relatively normal childhood. Once he was strong enough and old enough to learn, his adoptive father began training him with the sword and other similar weapons. When he was old enough to understand and handle the information, his adoptive parents dropped the truth bomb on him. He took this hard at first and sequestered himself for a few days before he began to accept this information.

After learning of his adoption additional education was added into the curriculum as well as additional weaponry, including guns after his twelfth birthday. While the initial conditioning for knighthood felt forced and unwanted, he accepted the ideals he had learned and embraced the ideals and duties by his mid teenage years. That is not to say he doesn't have a rebellious streak toward it.

Of course, Every knight needs their own way of grounding themselves and relaxing. For some it's painting or drawing. Others find solace in an instrument or their own vocal cords. James likes to cook. He's decent at it, but he has room for improvement. It's still a fifty-fifty shot of being edible and delicious or a trip to the bathroom. Thankfully, it is no longer a trip to the hospital.

Strengths: James has a good record for thinking on his feet to create an opening. He's a kind and compassionate person as well, finding it easy to make friends and comrades.

Weaknesses: Being an untested green horn, James has some confidence issues. Training and skirmishes can only do so much before you get to the battlefield. Thankfully, some of that pressure is alleviated by the fact he has commanding officers and more experienced soldiers around him, but that won't always be the case.

He also has a bit of a mouth and something of a bad habit of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. Open mouth, insert foot.

Name: Merida Kennedy
Age: 20
Gender:
Female
Height:
5'1''
Weight:
110 lbs
Eye Color:
Emerald green
Hair Color:
Black
Ethnicity:
Native American/Arabic
Appearance:
Merida unfortunately received the short end of the stick when it comes to femininity. She is flat chested and narrow hipped, looking more like an effemnint young man or pre-teen. Her hair hangs down to her waist in thick waves, often braided or tied back, favoring the braid. Her skin looks olive or tanned, depending on the light.

Other Information:

Biography: Merida was born as the oldest twin by two minutes to a mechanic and a politician turned housewife on earth. She takes more after her father than her mother, having a mouth and an attitude. But her little (read much taller and better looking) brother always bailed her out, despite her taunting and teasing him. And that time she put a bunch of worms in his bed.

Eventually, when the twins were in their final years of school, the family moved up to the colonies. Like her father and brother, Merida decided to become a mechanic, being small enough and lacking the assets to bar her from getting into the smaller spaces. After graduation she struck out on her own to Luna, her grandfather still on earth supporting her as she got on her feet. She met James at the local game bars after work and eventually took the teenage boy into her gaming group. When he turned 18 and looked to move into his own apartment, she graciously offered to share her space with him, thus finally becoming completely independent from her family.

Mobile Weapon: Co-pilots the Genion

Affiliation: Independant

Combat Style: Verbal Assault
Strengths: Her small size and agility allow her to slip about as necessary, avoiding the conflict.
Weaknesses: She doesn't do physical conflict. That's what her twin's for, usually. He's the big muscle bound man built for punching. Or James. He's a good punching bag.
