Name: Michael Nawlin
Gender Male
Age 23
Nickname: Mike, "Prowler"
Species: Tiger
Appearance: Mike is a six ft tall black and grey anthro tiger with a muscled swimmer build. He has short black hair and unique hetero-chromos eyes, the left a emerald green, the right a deep lagoon blue.
Personality: Mike is a reserved, observant soldier that ,on occasion, may lash out with a brief flare of roguish wit, before returning to his usual timid self. in truth mike doesn't care what you call him, and he can forgive and forget a few shoves and terse words without a thought, a sucker punch can even be swept under the rug. It isn't until his allies or friends are in trouble that his anger truly comes to the surface and he turns his entire focus on the cause.
Personal History: Mike grew up constantly under siege. As a child his unusual height caused him to be singled out and targeted by those with napoleon syndrome. it never ended well when they mistaked his calm nature for a coward, as He was commonly found bruised and waiting for the principal. As he grew his body got strong and his mind grew sharp, but thankfully his friends blunted the anger. he still fought defensively for himself, but may fate have mercy on the jerks picking on his friends. Given the uneven odds he was presented with, he learned to adapt and cheat if necessary, when you're outnumbered you can't afford not to. he learned the subtle hints of trouble, and when you should have started running 5 minutes ago. the best thing that happened to him, was when he joined the military his ability to focus on multiple things at once, and abnormally high perception and reflexes earning him a spot in the GEAR program.
Mike got lucky when he got through the training, it was tough, but his underhanded fighting style and perception made him stand apart from others, especially when he knew he was going to be screwed over. he was the first to spot an ambush, and several times he would be found in a half ruined gear refusing to shut down as 3 others piled atop of him. his crowning achievement however, was walking back to base coated in red paint, being followed by the four others coated in his yellow paint, they didn't notice the mines in time. he may have lost, but the enemies played dearly. at the end of his training he was approached by a shady officer and given a choice, join the rank and file soldiers, which didn't sit well with him. Or, he could get access to newly developed tech, at the expense of mandatory station with a specialized taskforce. the next day mike was shipped out on a cargo plane to his new home.

General Info: the G9L "Prowler" while a lightweight GEAR, uses angular armor composed of steel encased composite ceramic, allowing it to take a substantial hit, and remain operable where other GEARs of its class would not. The joints are heavily reinforced and carry newer, denser muscle fibers, allowing Prowler to be faster than heavier GEAR classes, while remaining stronger than those of its class. combined with newly installed jump jets, Prowler can get into places most Gears would find unreachable. Prowler is currently fitted to act as a scout/over watch for the team. optical camo, the angular armor, and advanced coolant system make it difficult to track from a distance, while long-range sensors and cameras allow him to keep an eye on his team mates.
