Name: Alexander [Redacted]
Rank: Lieutenant Commander.
Callsign: Alex-317 / 317.
Age: 25.
Gender: Male.
Profession: Special Forces / Naval Branch.
Appearance:
Height: 6'8” out of armour / 7ft in armour.
Weight: 240lbs out of armour / c. 1000lbs in armour.
Personality: Alex is devoted to his objective, whether it is assaulting an objective, or defending a family as they flee a warzone. He is engineered to be entirely devoted to his cause and to his orders. However, despite his augmentation and programming to be a disposable soldiers, Alex retains much of his humanity and attempts to connect with, and help, those he comes across, particularly those in desperate need.
When he can be, Alex is friendly and affable. His warm nature is considerably offset by the fact that he is an augmented warrior, and often stands almost double the height of most of those he speaks to, but he attempts to helps those he can.
When presented with violence, Alex swiftly changes into a protective mentality and generally employs an aggressive doctrine to protect the people (or object) he was charged with. A normal soldier or marine may see his actions as almost suicidal, not understanding that the training and augmentations – not to mention the armour – provide Alex a degree of immunity in war, and allow him to undertake extremely dangerous actions; a fact his commanders are aware of, and frequently take advantage of.
Backstory: Little is known about Alex's childhood. He had a healthy family, but he has not seen them in decades by this point. As as successful member of a junior military cadet corps, Alex was invited by an unnamed military officer to attend a series of selections, tests, trials and competitions. More than a hundred young men and women attended, of which between 5-10 passed selection. Alex was one of these young men.
He was invited to take part in an extraordinary procedure which would make him almost immortal. Unofficially Alex has no choice, but thankfully he accepted nonetheless. Having passed the extremely rigorous training process, which included undertaking and passing all of the military branch special forces' selection and training programs, Alex became one of the elite, biologically and mechanically augmented supersoldiers of the military, under a project known as Project Salient. Along with the other Salients as they were nicknamed for lack of an official title, Alex was assigned to the general command of the navy, to be deployed where they deemed necessary. These deployments were almost always extremely volatile and dangerous.
By the time Outremer was invaded by the voracious and deadly invaders we are now faced with, Alex had already taken part in several successful campaigns on a number of worlds in our sphere of control. Whether direct action, guerilla warfare, electronic or technical combat, recon, sabotage, assassination, or local training, Alex played a significant part in the actions of the human expansion and safekeeping of the worlds under our control. Under the command of Captain Cross of the OSN Galahad's Glare, Alex, a small number of fellow Salients, and countless soldiers, marines, sailors and civilians were tasked with the objective of saving and securing Outremer.
