The freaky thing is... someone 'did' get me a tub of ice-cream o.o Cookies N cream
Name: Chaynik "Twiggy" Yashcher
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Outfit and Rank: Specialist, 22nd U.S. Infantry Platoon [or something like that XD], Coordinator/Technician/Comms officer
Appearance/Photograph: Chaynik stands at over 3 Meters in height, quite large for a Kora'ao and a disorientingly drastic change from his previous perspective, Thickly built as any and cutting quite the imposing figure... Most of his body is a Fiery Orange that fades into a Dark pure Red on his Hand/foot claws, Tail, and muzzle, while a Crown of Ivory horns curls out along the back of his head, Several aim up, Several more curl down some, doubling partially as neck protection... and also a pain in the neck when one smacks into a door frame!
Service Record: Chaynik comes from a Russian Family with a long Military back-ground full of honor and service to their home country, a family of strong dedicated Front-line soldiers yearning for a warriors death... and Chaynik is the Family Dissapointment, though family will stay family, the disdain for his 'different path' is obvious... Rather than dumping himself in boot-camp, he dumped himself into books and electronics, sure he got bits of training here and there, a bit of shooting, some fighting, natural stuff when living aroud his family, but ultimately when he 'came of age', instead of going for a typical soldier, he moved to America to partake of their much more advanced technological programs and advance his personal passion.
After several Years in college, and a brief run-in with the FBI looking into things he did tinkering on his computers, He found himself in the military, first going through the tedium of typical desk-work and putting up with the more jockish soldier's that sometimes hung around in the non-combat zones, some of which are responsible for his nick-name of 'twiggy'... but everything was pretty lax overall, giving him plenty of free-time to play with the Tech and try to impress people by stream-lining some of the communication systems... Then the war caught up with him.
Now, most would expect any sort of tech specialist to absolutely loathe being anywhere near a battle, turning twitchy or jumpy, messing things up... Chaynik managed to show off that, even if he wasn't a soldier, he still had a soldier's blood in him and demonstrated unnaturally clear focus while lives were on the line... he wasn't 'command material', not by definition at least, but he tended to have a useful opinion on things... of course, he had a nasty habit of speaking his mind 'very' clearly if something didn't sit right with him, but he was useful for keeping things structured.
It all came to a head during one particular battle [who knows which], It The advancing Kora'ai were reaking havoc on the base he was stationed, the command was freaking out and everyone was so busy re-organizing to better defend officers that were pissing themselves, they hardly had the proper organization to defend the entirety of the base. Chaynik was staying busy on the comms, the world drowned out by constant shouting in his headset and quite thoroughly shutting up himself because nobody would even hear his 'choice opinion'... It came out of nowhere, they weren't supposed to be close enough to actually breach the more sensitive sections of the base yet, but something hit, a blinding stab of pain in his spine and sudden blackness.
