I'll begin work on a char sheet now, I call First Squad Sergeant! I'm doing this from a phone, so I'll just work on the basic info for now Portrait Image: [img=http://oi59.tinypic.com/bdv4ty.jpg] (Picture taken at Harvest 20th Anniversary Memorial Service, 2545) Basic Information Name: Archer Full Name: Steven Archer Gender: Male Date of Birth: 12/1/2514 1:21 AM Place of Birth: Harvest Age: 36 Height: 6'1 Weight: 201 lbs Hair Color: Light Brown Eye Colour: Grey Blood Type: O+ Service Jacket Rank: E-6 Staff Sergeant Branch: UNSC Marine Corps Department: Marine Special Operations Previous Assignment: 2nd Company, 1st Battalion 2nd Regiment 81st Division Current Assignment: UNSC Marine Special Operations, Ghost Detachment Detachment Role: Squad One Sergeant Personal Information Marital Partner: N/A Biological Father: Jason Archer, DECEASED. Killed when Harvests orbital elevator collapsed Biological Mother: Sarah Roland, DECEASED. Killed on Harvest (Circumstances unknown) Biological Siblings: Laura Archer, 31, UNSC Navy Lieutenant. Robert Archer, 37, Imprisoned after a double homicide, jailed for life. Andrew Archer, 33, biologist, no military or ONI affiliation. Biological Children: None Personality: Perhaps the most defining feature of him is his unshakeable loyalty. He's shown a great many times that he will obey almost any order sent his way... Even if it involved killing civilians. Steven has an unconditional hatred of the Covenant. His devotion to the mission at hand and willingness to obey whatever order that is required to complete it, made him an excellent choice for special ops. He views himself as the squads own military police; It's Jameson's job to lead and his to ensure the rest of the squad stays in line. As such, he can come across as a bit of a hardass and a jar head, but he's devoted to the unit and he'd be there to charge in and pull you out of a burning wreck if you needed him. He has a tendency to lean towards sarcastic humour whenever he does make a joke or to jab at people. Biography: Born on Harvest before the covenant invasion, Steven was of British and American descent, having an American mother but a British father. His parents couldn't have had more different political belief. His mother was a strong supporter of the resistance movements and stood on the left wing, yet his father was a strong supporter of the UNSC and stood on the right wing. Steven rarely paid attention to any politics until he was 10, after which he took some interest in his mother and fathers differing world views, though he never really made a decision on the subject. Whatever his thoughts were at the time, the invasion of Harvest settled it all for him. While the Covenant glassed harvest and butchered the planet, who was it that tried to rescue them? The UNSC. Who was it who stood against the Covenant? The UNSC. It was that moment he became cemented in his support of the UNSC, believing that humanity needed to stand together against this... evil. The destruction of Harvest and the Deaths of his parents would play a major role in his life choices from here on. As a result of this, he signed up for the marines as soon as he could, joining right out of high school. It was the only choice that really made sense for him, the Covenant had tried to destroy his future and now he wanted to have a shot at theirs.
