Part Draken part human



Home world:
None

Appearance:
Vertex stands at the height of 6'5, her face is human in shape and structure, with smooth, fair skin, and scales on her cheeks; her face was beautiful once, now it's scarred with her left eye blinded. Like most Draken her right eye is a bright yellow with a vertical slit, long dark hair cascades down her back with only a couple dark locks of raven colored hair flowing in front of her face.

Down the back of her neck and around her shoulders house sturdy shield like black scales to protect her body from damage, the scales travel down her muscular arms and wraps around her wrist and claw like hands; around her belly and sizable chest her body is more skin than scales, and due to her human side her skin is softer than full blooded members of her kind.

From the waist down black scales coat Vertex's legs, with feet ending in supple, smooth leathery soles; jutting from her back side is a foot long dark scaled tail that moves to and fro at her command, due to being part human she lacks the wings other members of her race would have.

When on the ship, Vertex will wear a simple wide neck white blouse with short sleeves to show off her scaled arms, around her waist she will have a belt that wraps around her solid waist and keeps her jeans from falling to her ankles, while she may wear pants and a shirt she will forgo wearing shoes on her own ship letting her reptilian like feet be free. While Raiding or on a mission she wears a heavy set of metal armor matching the dark color of her scales, the armor is almost akin to a knight's armor with metal covering most of the body and leaving little openings, due to it's weight and shape it's only useful to Vertex herself.

Former Profession: Mercenary

Personality:
On the outside Vertex can be a brooding, cold, gruff and sometimes cynical, when it comes to her crew Vertex demands strength and loyalty from them all, she doesn't accept weakness among her crew and is quick to remind the others of it whenever she feels it needs to be brought up, while she expects the best from her own crew she isn't unfair but tries to be strict towards them.

When it comes down to combat Vertex isn't a stranger, choosing to prefer doing things she claims are the "easy way" when it comes to their missions before rethinking the strategy and remember that she has allies to think of, while she's not forgetting about her crew she'd just rather gun down her enemies with several magazines of ammo and enjoying the feeling in the moment before running out of ammunition or needing to retreat.

Despite the above, Vertex isn't without heart, while she may not show it or give the crew much praise she cares deeply for each member and know that each time they take a step off the ship it's a chance they could end up dead or at anytime all of them could be slaughtered and chooses to be the protective wall that stops them from being killed.

History:

Captain Vertex's past is filled with more violence than most would ever want in their life time; when she was young Vertex attempted to join a military to fight for a cause to find something that would give her a drive, but once she joined and passed the training to fight with heavy armor she shot her commanding officer in the face after an ambush wiped out half of her squad and they lost an outpost they needed to continue their campaign instead of being arrested by the everyone in the base, Vertex and the last remaining members of the squad held out against the rest of the base's soldiers, stole a number of it's weapons then escaped in the dead of night on a ship.

Once the squad was out of danger they all voted on a leader and at first it wasn't Vertex, instead of being simple criminals, they were first Mercenaries fighting for money under different names and with a different ship. They hid their identities behind mask while people paid them to fight their battles, kill dangerous aliens or beast, or sometimes simply deliver something illegal or too dangerous for others to transport. During one of the of their missions on a hostile world, a grenade blew up their leader and once the lasers, bullets, and plasma stopped being fired they had to vote for another leader, and once again it wasn't Vertex, but she didn't want to be the leader.

As the years began to climb on, Vertex watched as her allies fell down beside her one by one every couple years, some in her arms slowly without her being able to stop it, while some died almost instantly, once it was simply her left Vertex decided that she was gonna make her own crew with the ship now that it simply was just her by herself, she was no long going to be a Mercenary, and figured that she could make more credits being a pirate.
