Name: Erich Weiss
Age: 24

Physical Appearance: Red, long hair, that he keeps tied in a single braid, deep cold blue eyes and an ivory white skin. Standing at 1,95m, Erich has a tall, athletic body. His fencing hobby gave him a great stamina, flexibility and agility. His appearance, more specifically his deep red hair and his delicate face, often draw a lot of attention, both from women and men (the latter often provoking and messing with him), but his penetrating blue eyes and his cold expression mostly always turn people away from him.

Unit Profession: Medic

Personality: Some say that his personality matches his distant, cold blue eyes, others say that a devil hides under that blood red hair. The fact is that Erich is a very unique person. He has a cold and calculating mentality but at the same time, he can be surprisingly friendly and warm to valorous companions and friends, even joking around and being a very lively guy. One thing that everyone agrees though, is his penchant for blood and his somewhat sadistic behavior. Nobody knows if he actually likes or if he doesn't really care about being cruel, one thing everyone knows is that Erich can be very cold and cruel if you stand in his way.

Due to being raised in a traditional family, coming from a wealthy and noble lineage, Erich knows how to be polite and formal when needed and is very intelligent. But the time he passed serving as a medic and mercenary, after him abandoning the family made him learn to be cunning and calculating.

History: Erich was born into an old and traditional lineage coming all the way from the nobles from old noble houses from Germany. Obviously, his upbringing was fit of someone born in a wealthy family, private tutors, books, fencing, he had the best things the money and status could buy. Erich was always the sole heir of the family, and as such, he was expected to be a perfect gentleman: intelligent, courteous, polite yet firm on his decisions, and above everything else, be a beacon, a role model for his compatriots to follow. At merely 18 years he was already a surgeon, and a damn good one, thanks to the instruction received from the best tutors and medics around.

When the war began, his family supported the country with all their forces, as it was expected. That included sending the young and still innocent Erich to the war to serve as a medic.
There is a saying that the war can change a person. This saying couldn't be more accurate for the young Erich. Living his entire life being treated differently, practically on his own world, separated from the brutality and violence from the normal world, reality hit him hard. He had to kill many men while serving. Both enemies and allies, those too wounded to be able to survive even with intensive medical care. As a way to protect his own mind from all that, he became the cold, cruel person he is today. Doing what it needed to be done to both ensure his survival and complete his duty as a soldier, he killed, saved, ignored orders, lied and even tortured. Everything with the same cold eyes. Obviously, as the time passed, he stopped caring about being cruel, sometimes even doing things that others could perceive as unnecessarily cruel.

After the end of the war, a completely different Erich returned home only to see what the war did with his once proud family. With the German Mark worth even less each day that passed, the family that once was proud to support their compatriots was found participating in political schemes, bribes and doing whatever they could to maintain their wealth, not caring about their country at all. Erich slowly watched his family's downfall, as they lost everything they had: their money, their lands, their status and even their honor.

Cutting all ties he had with his family, he adopted the surname "Fuchs", due to his red hair. He didn't wanted to carry his family's sins with him, as he had nothing to do with their actions. His name was his alone. Without having anything left in Germany, he became a mercenary. As a superb surgeon, his outstanding long range marksmanship and especially the way he used a rapier to fight, cutting his foe in order to incapacitate and inflict the maximum of pain before killing it, made his fame rise between the mercenaries.

His wanderings led him to a country called Borovia, which he was almost instantly hired as a mercenary for one of the barons on Asnio, the capital of Borovia. Not interested on the political side, he readily accepted the job. It was a good proposal, after all, it would give him food, equipment and somewhere to sleep. Surgeons of his caliber were rare to find, especially working as a mercenary. Thanks to his skills both as a marksman and as a medic, he quickly was invited to be on the Blackshirt army, a paramilitary group that answered to the Baron alone. Again, he had no reason to refuse, and so he accepted the proposal.

His friendly and warm attitude towards the other Blackshirt members would quickly earn him their trust and friendship. He didn't cared about who you were or where you were born. The only thing that mattered was that they would work together. Life was good for him, he had friends, a place to live, was respected as a Blackshirt... But he knew that things could change in the blink of an eye, so he was always prepared for the worse. Noble and wealthy families can fall in a matter of months, the same is true for any government or organization.

Name: Josef Fichter
Age: 24

Physical Appearance: Josef is a rather lean individual, but still has some muscle and strength to him. His hair is a cross between blond and brown, often appearing different depending on the lighting, and he dons an officer's moustache on his upper lip. His black military uniform is crisp and neatly pressed, with his parade and dress uniform adorned with shining medals from both the now-gone Austro-Hungarian Military, and the Borovian Blackshirts.

Unit Profession: Officer

Personality: Josef is an officer to his men first and foremost, and to the Baron second. He works to ensure that the orders he gives have his men's best interests in mind, and if his orders would lead to death or harm for his troops, he does not hesitate to contradict them. He works to maintain a good relationship with his men, wanting them to trust and have faith in him, as well as putting his own trust and faith in them. He sees working with the Blackshirts as a method of bringing stability to a troubled land, and he hopes that if Borovia can be made stable and intact, it can be either reunited with Austria, or perhaps inducted into Germany.

History: Originally a citizen of Austria-Hungary, Josef was among those in-between the working class and the nobility, wealthy but not of high birth. As such, in an attempt to push forward their social careers, Josef's parents enrolled him in an Officer's Academy once he came of age. By the time he had graduated and received his commission, the Great War was in full swing, and Josef found himself at the front lines of the Italian campaign. By the time the war came to an end in 1918, Josef had achieved the rank of Hauptmann, as Well as a Silver Medal of Bravery First Class, a Bronze Medal of Bravery, and a Karl-Cross. Eventually, the collapse of Austria-Hungary would occur, and Josef would find that his home no longer lied in his beloved Austria, but instead in a newly-formed, independent state known as Borovia. Despondent at the loss of his country and state, Josef took to the one thing he knew best: commanding forces. He used his status as both an officer and the heir to a wealthy family, and gained a commission in the Baron's Blackshirts, being given command over a special force drafting mercenaries, loyal citizens, and defectors from other nations.

Equipment:
Mannlicher M1895 Rifle, with Bayonet
Frommer Stop handgun
