_______________________________________________ // INFO Character Info Name - Marlowe Voltus Age - 20 Gender - Male Place of Origin - USA Type - (Newtype, Oldtype, Etc) Cyber-Newtybe Mobile Weapon Profile Suit Type -(Mobile Pod, Mobile Suit, Mobile Armor, etc) Mobile Suit Suit Style - (Federation, Zeon, Other) Other/Voltus Salvafe Custom Combat Role - Support/Range Striker Suit Armaments - HM-31 Custom Magnetized Rivet MW Rifle; Custom Heat Chopper - // PERSONALITY Pilot Personality Pacifistic Marlowe is not a soldier and escaped being forced to be one during the end of the Gryps War. Even though he's never seen true war, during his time as a Cyber-Newtype he saw the horrors inflicted on the fellow children and teenagers in the laboratories, and suffered the scars of their experiments himself. Because of that, he decided to escape the Earth and avoid all conflict altogether, choosing to help salvage instead of fight. Marlowe believes in the importance of life, regardless of which ideological side someone is on, and absolutely refuses to take another life, even if his own may be taken. Brash Just because he doesn't believe in killing doesn't mean he's a man of inaction. When there is a need for help, Marlowe is the first to jump into the fray. His strong beliefs in helping others tend to put him in worse situations and endanger himself and others. Still, he refuses to compromise his beliefs for anything, and to his detriment. Naive His belief that people are inherently good, which leads him to be used and abused by anyone looking to take advantage of that idealistic belief.

Physical Description Marlowe is of average height, with dark hair and dark eyes. His build is rather slim, and he tends to wear thick, insulated clothes to deal with the harsh environment on The Cathartes, since the ship is roughshod and ramshackle, you never know if the temperature will drop into freezing due to heating coils needing to be replaced. The same issue happens in the cockpit of the junkpile, and his normal suit is insulated as well to deal with the lack of temperature regulation in the cockpit. Because of this, he will rarely pilot with his helmet off. The other reason constantly covering his body is to hide the various scars he has received from the Cyber-Newtype experiments he went through in U.C. 86-87. He considers himself lucky to leave the Augusta Newtype Labs. Character Conceptualization Marlowe fits the classic Gundam idealistic kid with a major exception: he's older and he has seen how bad things can get on both sides. Beneath his idealistic character is a person who has been heavily scarred by the sins of both the Federation and Zeon. His faith in the spirit of humanity will be tested throughout the story, as even though he has escaped the major influences of the Earth-based colonies, corruption, cruelty, and violence still exist out in the rim. And he still has no idea the dangers that the Jupiter Empire poses. Mobile Weapon Description Junkpile His custom support mech, kindly named the Junkpile, is a hodge-podge of salvaged and re-purposed parts. The head module is that of a repaired Rick Dias from the Gryps War, and the body is of a GM-III. The arms and legs appear to be unarmored pieces of a GM-II or a Nemo. On the back of the suit is a large mechanical winch system; which can be fired and retracted. The back also has two smaller retro-boosters, allowing for some space maneuverability. However, due to its equipment, the Junkpile falls short of even a Zaku II in combat maneuverability. The one saving grace is the winch system, which allows Marlowe to rocket around debris fields with rapid speed, as long as he has something to tether his MS to. Since the Junkpile is meant for breaking down ships and debris, it is not armored for combat, and therefore is not suited for normal combat sorties.

_______________________________________________ // INFO Character Info Name - Disker Isaacs Age - 36 Gender - Male Place of Origin - Canada Type - Oldtype Mobile Weapon Profile Suit Type - Limited Production Assault Mobile Suit Suit Style - Federation (Titans) Combat Role - Anti-Ship/Range Support Suit Armaments - Sniper Beam Launcher, Beam Saber, and Shoulder Shield - // PERSONALITY Pilot Personality Overtly Cautious His limited piloting experience and the armament configuration of his Mobile Suit naturally incentivizes Disker to stay away from close combat action. This has left him with engagement habits that one might call too defensive or even cowardly but he'll be the first one to tell you that it's in everyone's self-interest and personal responsibility to stay alive. After all, what good can the dead bring to the battlefield. Calm Accustomed to stressful situations, Disker's mental fortitude rarely breaks when under pressure and under fire. After a near-death experience showed him how lacklustre his instinctive response was, the ex-Titan engineer has accepted the fragility of life and no longer worries too much about dying. He's made his peace with his actions and it's been a hell of a ride. Patient Staring down a targeting scope and holding down a position for potentially hours at a time is the unfortunate majority of a sniper's tactics. Luckily, he has built up a tolerance for mundanity and frustration due to his history of dealing with Mobile Suit testing and the reckless flyboys that broke those units.

Physical Description The march of time and his mostly sedentary workload has left Disker with a a bit of flab that is luckily hidden by the layers of clothing he wears. Though it's not as if that is the only purpose of his daily wardrobe, for the on-board mechanics of the Cathartes should always look their best. This professional uniform he self-prescribed is composed of a pair of white dress pants, a maroon tie, a pair of elevated leather shoes, a feldgrau dress shirt, and a jacket with a personalized emblem pinned on his left shoulder. Due to the lack of readily available barbers in space, he has elected to simply grow out his hair. When the need of his Mobile Suit arises, he dons his old Titans space suit. An important detail to note is the distinct lack of insignia and ranks on said space suit, as Disker has long disregarded the short-lived traditions and institutions of the Titans. Character Conceptualization On the surface, the Universal Century's wars have always been between the Federation and Zeon, with splinter groups forming from the two factions spicing things up every now and then. However, the big manufacturing companies have always been just as important as they supply weapons to every side able to meet their price. Disker Isaacs' embodies the values of duplicity and opaqueness these companies are known for. Disker initially fought all of his battles within the world of corporate espionage. Running from a mystery shrouded past, the only details he willingly shares with his present day comrades are the facts that he worked under the Titans' Augusta and Oakland labs Mobile Suit R&D divisons, that he proudly sabotaged the Titans before joining the Voltus Salvage Company, and that he was nearly stabbed to death because of that previous fact. Any further details of his past may or may not reveal themselves during the roleplay. Mobile Weapon Description By the time the Titans started to fall apart at the end of the Gryps conflict, Disker had secretly smuggled a few of their manufacturing projects to an undisclosed warehouse with the support and at the behest of a secret sponsor. However, he had kept one unit for himself after offloading the rest of the stolen mobile weapons: A RMS-106CS Hizack Custom. In a post-war world, having a high-end Mobile Suit would not be the easiest to maintain. Luckily, the Hizack Custom's mixed design foundations enables it to integrate most scrap parts the Cathartes might find between the Zeon and Federation wreckages. Its Sniper Beam Launcher is able to draw directly from the Cathartes' power supply as well, making up for the weaknesses of the Columbus class carrier's lack of firing coverage and the otherwise limited firing capacity of the Hizack Custom when drawing from its own energy core.

_______________________________________________ // INFO Character Info Name - Amagaida “Gaida” Xerda Age - 27-28 Gender - Female Place of Origin - Munzo Type - New Type Mobile Weapon Profile Suit Type - General-Purpose Mobile Suit Suit Style - Zeon, Retrofitted Combat Role - Support Suit Armaments - Multi-Purpose Beam Cannons, Head-mounted Vulcan Gun, and a Beam Rifle - // PERSONALITY Pilot Personality Ruthless Gaida will fight until her last breath with a relentless fervor at any cost. While she is a survivor at heart, she sheds no tears for the people in her way to surviving or protecting the values (or people) she cares for the most. This can drive a wedge between people once she removes all pretenses of who she is pretending to be and showing who she really is: a child of Zeon. Calculated Being impulsive is a fool’s death and the former Zeon ace knows this well. Even before stepping foot into the cockpit of a mobile suit the red-haired woman was distinctly intelligent and perceptive. She used these skills to survive Federation occupation and later various dogfights in her suit. She’s well-read for what she has gotten a hold of and she has a keen eye and ear for things that prove crucial to survival. If she hears a pilot say something out-of-suit that is damning, she’ll be sure to never forget it. Compromised Cynic People will do terrible things if afforded the orders to do so. In fact, “just following orders” was how her life got turned upside down by the Federation who couldn’t leave well enough alone. She doesn’t trust people unless they have staunchly proved to be on the side of the just. This can be kind of hypocritical given how she too fell into the same trope of a soldier just following orders under Zeon following her assignments inside a mobile suit.

Physical Description Amagaida, otherwise known as “Gaida” in her new life, is slender and toned. Her hair is red like Mars and eyes a nearly golden amber. She keeps herself as fit and nurtured as possible, though this can be forgotten given the thick, insulated clothes needed to survive with the inconsistent temperatures on the Lightning Galleon. She’s noticeably taller than even some men on the vessel, though not by much. Her attire often has a sense of being “all business” even in the most casual and less abrasive of environments. She rarely shows skin and often stylizes her hair in a relatively conservative fashion. In terms of her mobile suit equipment she keeps a old assortment of Zeon gear and while the brandings and adornments of the Principality of Zeon are faded or outright masked by new coats of paint, she often retools things in fond memory of when she flew against Federation forces for the good of her faction. Character Conceptualization Gaida is a former Zeon ace who has forced herself out of her old lifestyle in hopes of building something from scratch. Deceptively smart yet constantly in doubt of the universe around her she has yet to atone for her sins, though part of her feels she doesn’t need to as she still fiercely believes in what she fought for: independence from the Earth Federation at all costs. She was a child when the Earth Federation occupied Munzo and has a burning loathing of the arrogance of Earth in her blood. This does not lend to her despising people from Earth, but it does lean toward her interacting with a sense of bias and contempt beyond a facetious mask of civility and kindness. Mobile Weapon Description Gaida pilots a retrofitted, personally modified AMX-011 Zaku III. As a former pilot for the Principality of Zeon and ‘resistance fighter’, this is not largely out of place. One could consider it a “Zaku III Kai” given its amount of customization. It has similarities to Mashymre’s Zaku III customizations. The multi-purpose beam cannons that can be ejected and used as beam sabers, the beam rifle, and vulcan gun mounted on the head’s chassis. Many of the armaments Gaida was once used to have been scrapped or sold as she attempts to find a new life beyond Zeon and the Federation. She has heavily modified the suit itself to better suit its sensory capabilities and civilian utilities. Utilizing her mobile suit for scrapper duties seems like a waste, but she has found nothing to fight for since the principality’s downfall. Any new Zeon movements that have cropped up since she left have piqued her interest but nonetheless have not recruited her to their cause.

_______________________________________________ // INFO Character Info Name – Ezmy Eibril Age - 18 Gender - Female Place of Origin - Munzo Type – Cyber-Newtype Mobile Weapon Profile Suit Type - General-Purpose Mobile Suit Suit Style - Federation, junker Combat Role - Close-range striker Suit Armaments - Twin Beam Spear, Head-mounted Vulcan Gun, YHI YF-MG100 100mm Machine Gun - // PERSONALITY Pilot Personality Reckless Anger Ezmy has never been good at controlling her temper, a problem drastically exacerbated by Neo Zeon's conditioning. However, even before being brought in to the cyber-newtype experiments, her parents would have described her as a problem child, which might have been why there was so little fuss about giving her up. Within her is an ugly, angry, violent fire which refuses to be snuffed out, burning brightest in the heat of battle, and the cold of isolation. Grim Outlook Misanthropy was an ineluctable fate; people are disgusting during war, and there’s always war. On the one hand, an almost cruel contempt for life made Ezmy a good soldier on paper, but on the other hand—everything else. To Ezmy, the only thing more demeaning than being human is being a tool for humans, but dignity was never the thing getting her out of bed in the morning. Autophobic A misanthrope with a longing for affection might seem paradoxical to some, or perfectly logical to others. Ezmy just finds it humiliating. The love of family, the comradery of friendship, even in her dreams these things are vague and ephemeral. She cannot describe how they feel—or would feel—or just why she wants them, but she does. She wants them more than anything, sometimes even enough to act like someone acting like a well-adjusted person. But being discarded again, this time by Zeon itself, has done little to change her belief that these intangible concepts, if they’re real at all, are worth wasting on a tool.

Physical Description Ezmy is a built like a spike; short, narrow, deceptively sturdy. Spotty diets haven’t left her with much to build muscle on, but old exercise habits have at least kept her from wasting away. She wears what she can get her hands on, which usually means clothes that are baggy and too big for her, but which are at least insulated to handle the Cathartes’ occasional temperature tantrums. Her hair is kept short out of reflex, and her eyes are a dim, earthy brown. Her boney skin burns easily and often, and the multitude of scars left over from childhood experimentation crawl across her arms and spine and up her neck. She’s gone out of her way to rip out and stitch over the identifying Zeon crests of her mobile suit gear. The colors still disgust her, but there’s an odd, familiar comfort to the suit that’s kept her from tossing it in the airlock. Character Conceptualization Ezmy is Neo Zeon war-chaff brought up in the wake of one loss, and discarded on the eve of another. While initially a promising prospect due to how responsive she was to experimentation, her volatile personality and growing disdain for authority ultimately led to her dismissal after only a brief tour in conflict. Her home, which had so greedily sought her out, was now embarrassed by her, and at the age of eighteen she found herself living the life of a disgraced nomad. Neo Zeon coaxed the aptitude for violence out of her, and used it to feed her craving for conflict. Now, with the second war behind, Ezmy drifts listlessly in secret, desperate search of anything even resembling purpose. Time alone has awakened a new hunger within her as well, one for companionship. The feeling confuses her, disgusts her, and she does not know how to feed it, nor can she bring herself to ignore it. Mobile Weapon Description After her dismissal from Neo Zeon, Ezmy came into possession of a seized Federation relic, a nearly two-decade old GM Striker, and was sent on her way. The thing was hardly functional and took some time to adjust to, and the irony of having to pilot old Federation tech was not lost on her. While outdated in nearly every way, its close-range leanings were at least familiar to her. Passably mobile, with head-mounted vulcan cannons for minor cover, and a twin beam spear, which can be detached into two sabers, what the Striker lacks in range and defense it…well, it doesn’t really make up for it, but it does well enough up close.

_______________________________________________ // INFO Character Info Name - Dustice Behrbeck Age - 31 Gender - Male Place of Origin - Munzo Type - Newtype Mobile Weapon Profile Suit Type -Mobile Suit Suit Style - Zeon Combat Role - High-Speed Fighter Suit Armaments - Beam Machine Gun, Beam Sword Axe - // PERSONALITY Pilot Personality Cool-Headed Enough years in combat have led Bareback to not allow his nerves to take over. He's a stoic veteran in combat and is the first to take charge based on his years of experience in war. Pragmatic Bareback is willing to do anything to survive in combat, and he has an extremely pragmatic approach to combat, using whatever advantage he can to win in a fight. Spiritual Seeing the Axis Shock firsthand had an incredible impact on Bareback. He believed the Axis Shock to be a sign to humanity, and he began to change his outlook on life after surviving the Second Neo Zeon War, deciding to do his part to make the universe a better place for mankind instead of propagating the endless cycle of war.

Physical Description Bareback has shoulder-length, light brown hair, parted to the side. His eyes are tired, yet in combat, he keeps a certain sharpness that only a veteran of several wars can have. His face is perpetually turned into a frown, though he is not a cruel man. And while he is only in his early 30's, the obvious years of war have aged him. Character Conceptualization Bareback takes the role of the experienced veteran; a man who joined the Titans on the spot to search for his father, who’d joined the Zeon Remnants, who continually found himself working for those who committed atrocities throughout the various wars. After finally finding his father working for Hamon Karn during the First Neo Zeon War, Bareback defected the Titans after Jamitov Hyman's death and served with Neo Zeon until Hamon Karn's death. During the Second Neo Zeon War, he signed up to fight under the heroic Red Comet, Char Aznable. But history would repeat itself, as once more he found himself fighting on a side that only wanted to bring more destruction. Growing exasperated by the constant war and politics that corrupted good men, and seeing the miracle during the Axis Meteor fall as a sign, Bareback left fighting for a political cause and took up work acting as a bodyguard and mercenary, protecting freighters and civilians for better causes. Mobile Weapon Description Bareback pilots the AMS-119 Geara Doga which was his MS during the Second Neo Zeon War. It has since been repainted gray, to signify his neutral affiliation in the post-war. Bareback had done multiple modifications to the MS, increasing the Geara Doga's speed and mobility with added boosters. The Geara Doga's armaments remain the same as the standard model, but the increased mobility takes it from being a very middle-of-the-road mobile suit to a speedy combat MS capable of fulfilling many roles in battle.

_______________________________________________ // INFO Character Info Name - Leon Barlow Age - 27 Gender - Male Place of Origin - Type - Newtype Mobile Weapon Profile Suit Type -Transformable Mobile Suit/Mobile Armor Suit Style - Federation Combat Role - Skirmisher Suit Armaments - Long Blade Rifle, 2x Beam Sabers, 2x Shield Boosters - // PERSONALITY Pilot Personality Stalwart If there were ever a single word that could aptly describe Leon's character, it would be stalwart. Steady and sure, Leon stands as impassive as a looming storm cloud, towering and lumbering over all those around him, being as constant and power-exuding without the need to mutter a few words. While capable of antics of frustration or irritation, Leon's true emotions never surface unless he's truly sincere about his resolve in committing to it. Like the rumblings of ominous thunder, Leon would often quell arguments by brief flares of rising temper to settle meaningless debates even within a his crew. Bitter Idealism is the bane of Leon's existence. He contempt for those that spew useless dreams that do little help anyone. A notion crafted from the meaningless deaths of his brother and father, Leon bares his fangs to those that seek to face the universe with no real plan. He tries to distance himself from the idealistic, hero types as those always lead to pain and suffering. To go out of his way to attack these types is not like him, but he is not friendly. N/A [color=#807B84][/color]

Physical Description Leon is what you would call a midget; standing at only 5'3', Leon is below the average height for a male. Despite his height disadvantage, he weighs at a whooping 150 lbs; the weight mostly coming from the muscle obtained through vigorous workout, a notion obtained from his father that the body should always match the mind. In combat, he wears a suit bought help with the G force and comfort within space. It is insulated as well. Outside of combat, Leon keeps his attire simple with a black T-shirt, blue jeans, and hi-top red/black sneakers. Around his neck sits a wedding ring attached to a chain, a memento of his late mother. Character Conceptualization Leon is a mercenary trying to hide from the Federation, Zeon, and all those in-between. He was born and raised to pilot a mobile suit, his father Leon Barlow had always intended for him to join the Federation. His father knew his son was a Newtype and his plans were lofty. Unfortunately these plans would crash and burn as Leon lost both his father and brother during the War of 0088. Already skeptical, Leon became quite disillusioned with the Federation and Zeon, stealing his father's Gaplant before racing off into the stars. For years he made a name for himself as the mercenary known as Red Scream; Red being the color of his Gaplant, and the scream heard from his engine. Leon made it a rule to hide his face behind a mask. Now he seeks to hide from those that want him dead or jailed, his mind overlooking the true threat in the depths of space. Mobile Weapon Description ORX-005 Gaplant TR-5 ORX-005 Gaplant TR-5 Mobile Armor Leon acquired his Gaplant by stealing it from the Federation after his father's funeral. A variation of the mass-produced Gaplant, the TR-5 is a customized variation to increase the speed of the mobile armor with shield boosters. The Gaplant comes with the standard issue beam sabers stored in the legs but, it also comes with a Long Sword Rifle; a weapon that forms the main cannon for the Mobile Armor and a sword/rifle for the Mobile Suit. This suit is mainly an offensive tool used by the Federation for high-precision strikes.
