Name: Carter West

Nicknames: The Mad Dog of the Federation

Age: 40

Gender: Male

Social Status: Earthnoid

Rank: Sergeant

Appearance:

Carter has the standard build of a federation soldier, toned, and well built. He has dark hair, and slightly paled skin as he spent most of his time in doors, or in mobile suits he has had little time as of late to tan his body. His hair style is usually a formal slicked back style. He usually wears the standard federation uniform preferring to stay in the role of the usual soldier and not stand out as much as he can. His eye color is brown. In battle he fields a field suit specifically given to him for the Slave Wraiths operation.

Personality:

Adamant in his distaste for general Zeon supporters, thus most spacenoids, Carter has a natural burning flame in his soul that demands he takes vengeance for all the unnecessary casualties that Zeon has caused. His primary motive for continuing to fight in a active combative role is to make sure he can directly help end the war against Zeon even if it costs him his life. Carter has always hated people who blindly believe in their own zealous cause, and while he isn't blind to some of his own biased nature towards the Earth Federation he still fervently hates Zeon.

As a soldier Carter is uniform, formal, and goes by the book usually but is not afraid to be casual when the occasion is not as serious. He tends to be a bit of a buzz kill at times though as he always has a mind on the current situation he is in no matter the circumstances. He doesn't tend to fear losing his men though he does mourn for those he does lose. He hopes one day that men like them won't need to make sacrifices, and while some may call him brave he doesn't view it as such himself. As often as he'd risk his own life in a combat scenario in a crazy stunt he does so in order to try to help the others in his group come out alive.

Outside of his attitude as a soldier Carter is a simple man with simple pleasures enjoying quiet places, and dreams of one day leaving the military though he knows how unlikely that will be after committing murder, and fighting Zeon so much that he wonders if that is possible. While not a deviant he does enjoy the company of women a little more than he should but he tends to keep that part of himself buried deep down inside of his mind. He is first off a soldier now, and he is perfectly willing to do what he has to for the military.

Biography/History:

Born during more peaceful times on Earth to an American family young Carter West was thrown into a troubled family life. His parents after his birth were often fighting, and this left an impression on young Carter who grew up scared of adults around him. His life wasn't an easy one as a young babe but Carter was eventually taken in by his grand parents after his mother, and father divorced and neither of them was granted custody due to neither of them being deemed as reputable enough for raising a child. Carter's grand father was a gentler man than his father but was still stern, and rough around the edges. His grand mother was a retired doctor, and tried her best to make sure her grand son didn't turn into a deviant but only partly succeeded.

Growing up with his grand parents made Carter more accepting of other people than some would think. He was taught with a good old fashioned style of respecting everyone but always carrying around a big stick (figuratively) in order to deal with bullies. He didn't tolerate being bullied, and often got into fights as he got older in order to prove a point. Refusing to take anything lying down Carter held fast to whatever he believed in, and had no intentions of going into space content to dream up a home on Earth as a young man something like his grand father who was now working in a computer field.

As he got older though he experienced the events that would go onto haunt the world he lived in as the space colonies slowly, and surely grew more, and more discontent. At first he ignored the politics behind it as he kept up his work to become a software engineer as a budding teenager with the encouragement of his grand parents. However as he learned more, and more he began to become worried about the course of events that were taking place in the colonies. Fearful of what it may mean for independence in space may mean for those who lived on Earth.

Eventually however Zeon broke free, and declared themselves independent. Soon after Carter decided to join the military after what was going on in space. Having been physically fit due to his grand father taking him hunting, and encouraging a healthy life style he quite handily made it into the military. He was enrolled into the science divisions as a test pilot for some of the machines they were making to combat Zeon. However he was eventually forced to fight in the fields as he was put into a GM suit he was put into a squad of his peers. He mainly fought in minor battles on the side lines however among his peers he gained the title of 'Mad Dog of the Federation' having vowed to destroy Zeon for its atrocities both in space, and out butchering Zaku pilots, and enemies mercilessly earning him a dishonorable reputation but a feared one none the less. His most notable feat was during Operation Odessa the East Coast was still under siege and during the occupation he overclocked his GM, and used other parts from other mobile suits to form a Frankenstein GM doing massive damage to the Zeon Forces in Washington DC before the machine broke down from stress.

He fought valiantly under Admiral Roan during the skirmishes in Space, and eventually participated in A Baoa Qu. He survived the fight but only just barely. He ended up staying with the Federation afterward being a pilot fighting Zeon Remnants before being transferred to assist the people at Anaheim Electronics in their mobile suit production center. Being a test pilot for many GM Mobile suits coming out. Eventually he found out a woman from his old ship was pregnant with his son and though they didn't marry he helped support the child by way of sending money, and the occasional visit.

However once The Delaz Fleet enacted their operation he couldn't stand by anymore and vowed revenge after their success in destroying the Federation Fleet with a nuclear warhead. Carter joined the Titans at the recommendation of one of his old squad mates. He fought ruthlessly for Earth obeying his superiors with pride. However as their conflict with the AEUG settled in rumors around the barracks circulated, and eventually Carter grew distrustful of some of his superiors.

Eventually Char, and Amuro Ray broke the silence about the Titans, and their misdoings. While he had participated in certain activities for the Titans in the past and he knew of some of their darker operations the leak of certain operations relating to the high brass, and their activities finally led Carter to defect to Karaba but he didn't venture into space participating in operations against the Titans with some of his new team, and Karaba insurgents. Afterward he willingly submitted himself to trial where he was found not guilty in a plea deal where he ratted out multiple members of the former Titans for worse atrocities, and naming multiple hidden bases on Earth. His son, Henry, though he and his son did't communicate a lot the boy intended to enroll into the military despite his mother's issues with it. Eventually he did join shortly before the Second Neo Zeon War becoming a pilot in the federation.

During The Second Neo Zeon War Carter was a member of Amuro Ray's Team that assisted in trying to stop the first Asteroid but failed having not able to assist the civilians he vowed to get back at the Zeonic scum who killed them. Driven by years of self loathing he hated Zeon all the more especially since they couldn't scape goat the Zabi family anymore for their actions. Leading a team of Jegans he participated in the final battle but did not help Amuro Ray push back the Asteroid he killed multiple Zeon pilots during the battle earning him the rank of Captain. During the following years he was mobilized and led a personalized task force under his own personal command. Round Bear was its given code name for the group and served as a personalized unit to hunt down traitors, and assist Londo Bell as required. It was meant as a group personalized to deal with smaller issues that Londo Bell couldn't be bothered with. After the Laplace incident Round Bear was given a temporary new leader as Carter was assigned to the new Anthem Task Group in order to assure mission success with a heavily experienced, and tested soldier in its group. To this day he still has a number of patches on his flight suit dating all the way back to the Federation days to note each group he's been with.

Mobile Weapon:

gundam.fandom.com/wiki/RGZ-91B_Re-GZ_…

Name: Dren Hepner

Age: 30

Gender: Male

Social Status: Spacenoid

Appearance: Dren is a Side 3 Spacenoid by birth, and shares many of the common physiological details that an astute observer could use to identify him as such. In terms of physique, he keeps himself fit and ready as a soldier should, though a family history of space travel and colonial life means his stature is that of a more tall and thinner body accustomed to artificial gravity and weightlessness. His hair is near-black in color, kept trim and proper, and is paired with a sharp goatee extending across the center of his chin. A long scar line extends from near the top of his left ear and down to the edge of his left jawline, just before where his facial hair begins. Dren keeps proper in a well-pressed EFSF uniform, avoiding personal embellishment. The notable exception to this is a pendant often found around his neck, worn underneath his clothing, of the symbol used by the Axis-based Neo Zeon during the First Neo Zeon War

Mobile Suit: MSA-0003 Nemo
Dren Hepner pilots one of the MSA-003 Nemo suits deployed by the Earth Federation following the absorption of the AEUG during the conclusion of the Gryps War. His particular unit carries the HFW-GR·MR82-90mm GM Rifle as its standard ranged combat armament, as well as the standard beam saber pair mounted on the small of the back of the Mobile Suit, and the twin 60mm Vulcan guns mounted in the unit's head. Dren does not prefer to deploy with the shield traditionally issued with the Earth Federation's mobile suits, having grown accustomed to fighting without one.

Positive Personality traits:
Dren Hepner is fully aware of the implications and assumptions his personal history carries, and he works every day to subvert them. Doing whatever it takes to prove his loyalty and uphold his duties as a member of the Earth Federation's armed forces and the civilians they are sworn to protect. He bares no ill will towards those who are reluctant or otherwise unwilling to accept his determination to server the Federation as truthful, simply proving them wrong with his actions rather than his words.

Negative Personality traits:
Dren's defection from the Neo Zeon near the end of their involvement in the First Neo Zeon War was born of their increasing usage of tactics and strategy he found deplorable and criminal in nature. As such, Dren believes in conducting himself as an honorable and respectful member of the military, finding any actions comparable to those committed by the Neo Zeon during the war as infuriating and something that could very well lead to physical conflict between him and the perpetrator of such actions.

Short history/personality blurb:
Dren Hepner was born within the original Principality of Zeon in U.C. 0069, in the heart of the Side 3 space colonies. He doesn't recall much of life before the One Year War of U.C. 0079, but he does believe it was genuinely better for his kin. The war saw Dren's father, a man named Augin, enter the Zeon armed forces, serving in battles both in space and on Earth, before being killed in action during the Federation recapture of California Base. This lit a fire of Zeonic patriotism in the young Dren's heart that would take years to be extinguished. When the forces of Zeon finally surrendered, Dren had grown to carry a juvenile hatred of the Earth federation, and by the age of 17 had managed to reach out to the remnants that would become the Neo Zeon forces.

Being fully inducted into the Neo Zeon forces near the end of the war, Dren quickly learned that his perception of the Neo Zeon and Earth Federation was horrifically misguided. Dren's unit was one designed by the Neo Zeon to conduct illicit false flag operations, piloting mobile suits controlled by the Zeon that were intentionally designed to masquerade as Earth Federation units, mirroring the tactics that led to the creation of the GM Camouf during the One Year War. To this day the full extent of Dren Hepner's operations have never been described to anyone but the members of Earth Federation command that oversaw his defection. By the end of the war in early U.C. 0089, Dren was an active collaborator with the Earth Federation, providing them with information that would bear fruit during the conflict with the Neo Zeon forces led by Char Aznable in U.C. 0093, known as the Second Neo Zeon War. By the time of the Laplace Incident, or the Third Neo Zeon War, Dren Hepner had been fully integrated as a member of the Earth Federation's armed forces, and was ready to serve alongside other mobile suit pilots. His vigor and spirit against the Zeon during the conflicts surrounding the Laplace Incident are what led to his placement within the Anthem unit, showing dedication in helping clean up the Zeon remnants as both a personal duty and atonement.

Biography:
Putnam was born in 0068 on the colony Nassau, part of Side 4. A victim of the Thunderbolt Sector, Putnam (then 11 years old) and his family were evacuated with the rest of Nassau during the One Week Battle, then resettled on Side 1. The evacuation and destruction of Nassau followed by the enlistment and even conscription of older members of his community (leading to the death of most during the battles for the Thunderbolt Sector) left a major mark on Putnam’s psyche, leading him to himself enlist in 0086, being trained as a mobile suit pilot in the EFSF.

Piloting a GM III throughout the First Neo Zeon war, his service record was largely without distinction, credited with three kills and seven assists throughout his deployment. Assigned thereafter to the Alexandria-class cruiser Actium, Putnam flew peacetime sorties with the 88th Fleet. During the Second Neo Zeon War, Putnam was scrambled along with the rest of the 88th to assist Londo Bell at the Battle of Axis. During the fighting, he earned ace-in-a-day status, downing five suits and getting credited for nine assists.

Thereafter he remained with the 88th Fleet, upgrading to a Jegan and performing sorties against Sleeves hit-and-run attacks, notably being assigned to maintain the quarantine of Industrial 7 during the Third Neo Zeon war, although seeing no actual combat. In the aftermath of the Laplace Incident, he and most other present pilots were grounded and rigorously evaluated, relegated to garrison duties in the meantime. During his evaluation period, Putnam was handpicked by the special operations unit Anthem.

Short history/personality blurb: Although the Zabi family was popular among the people of Side 3, not all of the noble houses truely sided with them, or any of the other pretenders to the throne. One such family was the Landry's. Oh yes, for show, they would throw their hands up and yell "SEIG ZEON!" along with the rest of the deluded masses and throw their money behind the war for independence, they all did what they had to in order to survive under the tyrannical fist of Gihren, puppeting his depressed and ashamed father who sat on the throne. The truth was that, to begin with, yes, they had been quite close with the Zabi's, being one of the many inner circle families, alongside the Ral's. When Degwin took Naliss Landry as his wife, the two families were inseparably linked. Even if the rest of the family disapproved of her choices. When her Naliss' father, who fiercely and loudly clashed heads with Degwin, died surrounded by mysterious circumstances, Ptolemy Ent Landry took over as head of the family and did his best to steer it clear of the Zabi's, but continue to support Deikun in his campgain. The families came together once more with the sad passing of Naliss, giving birth to Zabi heir Garma. Old hatchets were buried with the soil of grief and a neutrality descended upon the two families. When Zeon died, leaving Degwin as a successor, the writing was on the wall "fall in line or fall into your grave." Even though the suspicions surrounded the Landry's of not truly supporting Zeon. Degwin had them placed under special exemption from Gihren and Kcylia's wrath. One final show of gratitude to the family who gave him his wife that he loved so much.

As countless perished within the fortress of A Baoa Qu, over at Side 3, life was taking its first views upon the world. Gregorovich Tal Landry, born on the eve of Zeon Surrender, grew up in a Zeon that had been brought entirely under the Federations boot-heel and existed as merely a puppet-state with Federation advisors having the true power. He didn't resent them for this, after all, he didn't know any better. His father clearly resented this, but accepted that, at least he no longer had to hail to the insane machinations of Gihren. Side 3 was used as a development center, using captured Zeon scientists to develop new Mobile Suits for the Federation and their Titans task-force. Gregorovich was able to stay mostly out of harms way as he watched the old remnants of Zeon flare up time and again under newer and even more insane leaders. Karn, Toto... Eventually, Aznable, who came back to side 3 and was welcomed as a conquering hero. Gregorovich couldn't help but be swept up in the wave of patriotism, too young to fight, but he was on the streets waving the banner and welcoming Casval as he came to lead the Earthnoids to space against their will. Gregorovich entered into the Junior Mobile Suit Pilots club, quickly becoming intimately familiar with the use of a Mobile Suit. Of course, Casval's reign didn't last long and Zeon was, once again, smacked back down and put under the Federations jackboot. But Gregorovich didn't resent this. Far from it. Seeing the Axis event on television, the majesty of the green glow that saved Earth, the mortality of the Red Comet being finally brought front and center... Things changed. Patriotism replaced with compassion. Gregorovich had grown up not resenting the Earth, then had found himself swept up in a riot and when it was over, had taken a long, hard look at himself and decided that Zeon was a name best left dead and buried. Every time someone brought up the name, either millions perished and suffered, or they almost did.

When the Federation came calling for pilots during the Sleeves incident, Gregorovich dropped his name and lied about his age to sign up to the Zeon Colonial Forces drafted to quickly deal with the Sleeves threat. Already having been piloting simple mobile suits for the last 3 years, he seemed like a natural when it came to piloting the real ones. He never really had a chance to prove himself in full combat, but his simulated tests rated him highly. When Rebirth Zeon made themselves known, he was chosen as a representative from Side 3 to join the mission to find and destroy them, the higher ups thought it would play better for the media to have an actual Zeon citizen in the team. Of course, Gregory saw no problems with this, he was going to work his way up the ranks and effect change on the Federation from the inside, at the same time, he was going to put down the elements of Zeon that were the cause of all of the suffering in the wars.

Win-Win.
