Thought you could start an RP without me showing up to crash the show?

WRRRRRRRRRRY!


Name: Alan 'Claw' Branx
Age: 26
Side: Alliance
Appearance: Keeping his hair short, his face is rather handsome and well-cut. His brown eyes are quick from combat training and in-battle experience and often flick to and fro while he watches his surroundings. Dressed in casual clothing, he prefers comfort to uniforms.
Personality: Calm under pressure, but awkward in conversation with others. He spends most of his time fighting rather than talking.
Biography: Having grown up in a military family, he grew up when the Gears were first getting their trial runs. He joined up and trained under special circumstances and through special avenues in order to assure his placement within the Gear units. Having found his place, he has pushed himself into solo missions and other such situations so as to further his personal experience behind the panel.
Gear: A genius in his field, Alan pilots a modified Eagle which carries scrap pieces from the original Knight designs and the ever-popular Dragon. The weapons have been modified in such a way so as to carry less ammo but be lighter to allow better movement of his vehicle. He has access to a flamethrower, a powerful machine gun, several missiles that range from AS models of various powers and a choice few AA missiles. However, his pride weaponry revolves around his custom-grafted left arm. While appearing to carry no such weapon to the naked eye, it is in fact a close-quarters armament designed to both hold its opponent and destroy the pilots of opposing Gears. A claw hand that is capable of fairly difficult grappling hides a pneumatic spike within the 'palm' of its hand. This spike can be extended so as to pierce the armor of conventional Gear models and target the pilot within the 'safety' of their cockpit.
He calls his Gear "Sabertooth" despite its obvious roots in the eagle's shapes and design. Obviously the name comes from his tactics which revolve around using his longer range weapons as distractions or support so that he can close distance and attack with his claw and conserve ammo and collateral damage. In most cases, he uses his light-weight design so as to boost onto the battle-field and strike quickly before any shots are fired and thus abuse the element of surprise.
