Here's my sheet! It's slightly rushed, so I apologise for any appalling historical inaccuracies if there are any. :P I'm happy to make edits if need be! Name: Sean Gardiner Gender: Male Nationality: British (Northern Irish) Age: 32 Physical Appearance: Sean stands at a fairly average height of 5’11”, and has a rather stereotypical “Irish” look to him - with dark hair, pale skin, and bright blue eyes. He has a broad, strong (although athletic) build. His black hair (usually wavy) is cut short in a military style, and contrasts with the much lighter colour of his eyes. He has a serious look to him, and his cheeks are often covered by a layer of stubble. Rank: Corporal Weapon and Ammunition: Bren Light Machine Gun MK 2 | .303, Magazine Filled Brief Background: Sean was born in Newtonards, Northern Ireland, in 1909. Born into a heavily Loyalist area, Sean (and his family) did not possess the resentment that many Irishmen at the time did toward the British occupation of Ireland - in fact, Sean’s mother was from England. His father was a prominent businessman in the area, and so Sean’s childhood was a quiet and uneventful (although privileged) one. When war came in 1914, Sean was not overly affected, as none of his immediate relatives went to the Western Front. However, a great many of the “big kids” as he had known them at the time did not return when the Great Conflict came to a close in 1918. Sean was 12 whenever ‘Northern Ireland’ was officially created in 1921, and 13 whenever Southern Ireland seceded away from the North of the country in 1922 to create the Irish Free State. Living as he did in the North (and in a Loyalist area), Sean was immune to the turmoil of the events of the Irish Civil War and those that followed. His teen years and young life went along relatively uneventfully, with Sean getting a job in his father’s business while he went through University. He got married to his high school sweetheart at the age of twenty-one. The pair soon had a child of their own (a beautiful baby boy named James), who was born in mid 1930. A second child - a daughter, named Susan - followed in 1932. When War was declared in 1939, Sean was filled with a sense of patriotic duty: he was still a young and perfectly able man, and had been too young to serve in the first Great War - now was his chance to do his bit against Germany and fight for King and Country. However, he had a family - and so his sense of responsibility to his wife and child prevented him from rushing to the nearest recruitment office. Over the next year, Sean continued to work for his father, but gradually began putting his affairs in order: and, once he was sure his family would be provided for, announced that he intended to join up and do his bit for King and Country. His wife was saddened, but she had known she would not be able to keep him from what he felt was his duty forever: and so, in early 1941, he went to the nearest recruitment office and joined up with the 38th Irish Brigade. He went through training well enough, and was promoted to the rank of Corporal both because of his skill and his father’s connections with several men in the War Office. When the British Expeditionary Corps was sent to Greece to help repel the German Invasion, Sean shipped out with them: and so, he has found himself on Crete, alongside a mish-mash of other Commonwealth Forces.
