Lapin was too focused on getting a straight answer from the scientist who was attempting to leave that she initially ignored Beryl's first request to pursue. She stopped when the scientist replied to her and wordlessly beckoned the SOLDIERs with her to stop as well.

The scientist replied to her request in a typically dismissal manner, but something seemed fishy to her. Wouldn't the Lead be handling the specimen if it was so important to Hojo, and not some nameless lab coat?

As well, she was well aware of how the SOLDIERs under her command felt about her: they weren't fond of her command style, but they respected her. The two SOLDIERs in front of her now looked more like they were ready to fight.

Too much was wrong here, and she knew that Beryl felt it, too when he asked again for orders. She didn't even have to look at him to tell that he was gripping his weapon. She narrowed her eyes at the lab coat, but spoke a command to the SOLDIERs in front of her first. "Step aside. I want to see this 'scientist's' credentials." Then, as she reached behind her for her shield, she addressed Beryl and Rowan: "Apprehend him.

"This is an announcement for all Turks in the Junon Residential District. The hacker is attempting to deceive us by sending fake signals in varying locations. However, by doing so, the hacker has exposed themselves as being in the Junon Residential District as none of the signals have hit that area. Please investigate any suspicious buildings."

Landon looked skyward as Short-Tank's voice rang out over the loudspeakers in the Residential District. He punched his robotic palm as he exclaimed, "Nice job, Short-Tank! Now that he thought about it, he had spied something weird as he was patrolling the main street: There was an apartment that had papers covering the insides of the windows. He had dismissed it at first as being some shut-in's way of closing themselves to the outside world, but maybe there was something more to it...

He bolted back to the apartment building and looked up at the windows, easily finding the one that was covered in newspapers. Third floor. Not too bad of a hike. As he ran to the door, he charged the Quake materia in his arm. As soon as he was within arm's reach, he threw a robotic punch, smashing the door from its hinges. He didn't have a lock pick on his arm, and with most of the Residential District being evacuated, he didn't have to be subtle. Quickly scanning the area, he found the nearest stairwell and started running upward, to the third floor.

Lapin nodded her head in satisfaction, both at Beryl's answer and his willingness to replace his helmet. "I completely understand, Vagrant. Your honesty and forthrightness will certainly be noted in my next report." She then turned to Rowan and flashed a quick, but smug, smirk. "You could learn something from Vagrant here, Tuesti." She was about to dismiss the two soldiers, her mind already whirring and coming up with a way to be more proactive in rooting out the AVALANCHE infiltrators, when she heard the familiar whine of a helicopter engine.

She held up her fist and looked around. "Hold on, what's that?" She looked toward the source of the sound and spied four men heading toward the helicopter, one of them holding a briefcase. "You two, with me," she said to the two soldiers. She then started heading toward the other four men while raising her hand.

"Hey there! No one leaves or enters Bone Village without my knowing! State your purpose!" She had no reason to believe that anything sinister was happening, but protocols were protocols, and she finally had something to do.

We're not SOLDIERS, and we're not infantrymen. Remember that...especially you, Milonas. I know you're itching for a fight, but you're a Turk. While the troops handle the proverbial stingers and claws, we're going right for the head. Find the hacker, and we can end this mess quickly.

A lone man wearing navy blue suit pants and a clean, white, pressed shirt strode down the main street towards the base proper. As far as Landon knew, most of the action was happening on the base proper, what with the robots attacking Shinra troops; it was all hands on deck, as they say. As he loosened his tie with his robotic hand, he slipped his hand into his back pocket and withdrew a worn photograph. The photo showed a him, but younger, and quite dirtier. He was standing next to a woman close to his age who had mousey brown hair and was wearing an outfit similar to his. They were both grinning like big goofballs, the joke shared between them long lost to the passage of time. "This ain't Corel, Rox...but sure sounds like it." His tie now properly loosened, he grinned. "My kinda place." He gently slipped the photo back into his pocket, then mused to himself: "Bet those guys are havin' a hell of a time."

Landon, being that he wasn't versed in the finer arts of hacking and computer science, set himself to the task of 'beating the streets,' waiting for a call from any of the others in case they got a location.

Lapin soon got a response to her question, but she didn't anticipate the source: Vagrant, a 3rd Class SOLDIER under her command. "Sorry. I didn't mean to eavesdrop. You must be new?"

Her expression quickly turned from one of relaxation to the stern "hard ass" expression that many of her soldiers have come to expect. How dare anyone disrespect her, a SOLDIER in her second year of command? She opened her mouth to reply, but of course, Rowan had to get in his two gil: ”You realize you’re talking to our commanding officer, right?”

She took a slight breath, cursing to herself and wondering why no one ever wanted to wear the gods' damned helmets, then replied sternly to Rowan, "I don't need anyone to speak for me, Tuesti." Then she turned toward Beryl. "But he's correct, I am your commanding officer; I'm hardly new."

A thought flitted through her mind: Is being in one's second year really experienced, though? This is, after all, my first mission beyond Midgar's walls."

She spoke once more. "But, since you're here, Vagrant, maybe you can answer my question: Since I spied you doing a patrol earlier, maybe you can inform me as to the morale of my men?" In her mind, she threw up her hands in disgust, but outwardly the only evidence of this thought was a slight twitch of her fingertips. "And I completely understand that it's hard to see out of, and that they are quite heavy, and your sweat stays inside; believe me, I've heard every single complaint about these thrice-damned helmets, but it is part of your uniform and a measure of safety against attack. Place it back in your head, before I do it for you!"

Written Description
Landon, having spent many of his formative years mining coal, is quite lean and muscular. His body is covered in faint scars and burn marks, some from normal wear and tear from working in the mines of Corel and building the Mt Corel reactor, but some of his more recent scars are from the destruction of said reactor. His most notable physical feature is his prosthetic right arm, which appears as a molded metal arm, complete with a five-fingered, jointed hand. Dark scarring can be seen on his upper arm where the prosthesis connects to his body. The arm is myoelectric/infused with Mako, giving it the ability to function like a normal arm, minus fine motor skills. He can hold objects in his hand without fear of dropping or crushing them, but cannot deftly manipulate them, like say writing with a pen or typing on a keyboard. He has no feeling in his prosthetic limb.

Like his picture suggests, Landon keeps his sleeves rolled up and avoids wearing his suit jacket whenever possible. His suit is navy blue and he wears a silk, light blue tie that his Ma gave him before he left for Midgar, which he cherishes.

Personality
Landon may possibly be the nicest Turk to wear the suit. This doesn't mean that he's a pushover, or that he's any kind of pacifist, however. Generally, he's easygoing and friendly to his compatriots and even potential opponents, but when it's time to fight, he'll ensure that he puts his enemy down with very little muss or fuss. He likes to throw down and seems to genuinely have fun fighting, and even if his life is on the line, he'll still have a smile on his face. His flippant attitude may annoy his comrades, but he doesn't care. He tends to act like a 'bro' and has a nickname for everyone, and tends to change those nicknames on the fly. He also has a soft spot for women and children, and will at times catch himself being crude or idiotic and completely stop so as to not offend the 'fairer sex' or 'young ears'.

There are generally very few things that set him off. A person can get up in his face and spit at him and call him every derogatory name in the book, and he'll stand there and take it...until they insult his Ma or Pa. Doubting his ability because of his prosthesis will usually earn a snide remark along the lines of "Nah, my only limitation is the parts of me that are meat, friend-o."

Background
Corel was once a middling coal mining town near the tourist trap of Coast Del Sol. It's residents were proud, hard-working, and friendly people. Three of those people were a burly bear of a man named Kain, his young wife Helen, and their rambunctious son Landon. Kain worked the mines since his childhood, and when Landon was 10, he followed suit. Helen, meanwhile, ran a diner of sorts to keep the working people of the town well-fed and happy. When Landon was just on the cusp of 18 years of age, his father passed away from black lung. The town mourned for a time and Landon quickly and seamlessly took up the mantle of 'Man of the House' and primary breadwinner of the family.

Two years later, Scarlet, representing the interests of the Shinra Electric Power company, came to Corel and and made a proposition: Shinra would build a reactor on the nearby Mt. Corel, and the town of Corel would reap the rewards that having a new, cutting edge source of power would afford them. Landon, along with the town elders, readily agreed and days later, construction began on the massive reactor.

Landon readily leapt into his work helping in the construction and even when morale seemed low and Shinra seemed too pushy, Landon worked to keep everyone's spirits up. However, one fateful day, Landon's world was suddenly turned upside down. An explosion occurred in part of nearly completed reactor, and Landon, along with a handful of men went to try to rescue anyone they could. Although they were able to get a number of people to safety, Landon's right arm was badly injured by falling debris and he lost consciousness.

When he came to, he tried to lift his hand, only to find out there was none. The doctor who was present told him that the injuries to his arm were too extensive and that he had no choice but to amputate. Landon's only response: "Is everyone safe?"

Indeed, there had been only two deaths in the explosion, and a Shinra investigation quickly found cause of the explosion: the terrorist group known as AVALANCHE.

Within days, Shinra forces were storming the town, under the guise of rooting out hidden AVALANCHE members. They completely razed the town, chasing any survivors to the north. Landon and his Ma were barely able to get to safety, but not before a Shinra troop uttered the words that would etch themselves into his mind for the rest of his life: "You brought this on yourselves."

Landon knew that the trooper was wrong; AVALANCHE brought this misery, not the people of Corel. After healing up and rebuilding what they could, Landon made the decision to leave North Corel for Midgar, to join SOLDIER and exact his own brand of justice on the cowardly terrorists of AVALANCHE. Using the last of his savings, he travelled to Midgar and found someone who could outfit him with a new arm and in a couple of years, once he was fighting fit, he tried out for SOLDIER...and failed.

However, his skill and enthusiasm caught the attention of the Turks, who appreciated his up close and personal style. After his recruitment, he quickly made a name for himself as a quaint and folksy, but skilled and dedicated enforcer.

Weapon
Although Landon is proficient with a number of mining implements, such as pickaxes and shovels, his primary weapon is his fists. He learned to box as a teen, and carried those skills over to his career as a Turk. He also knows a few grapples and throws, but he more prefers to simply punch his opponents.

It was the same moment that Lapin heard footsteps approaching that she saw Rowan from her peripheral vision. She tensed up, expecting him to whine at her about his post or some nonsense. To her surprise, however, he seemed sympathetic to her...in his own sarcastic way. A way that she would only have tolerated from someone she had known since childhood.

In an instant, she had visions of a social event that they had both attended as preteens. Much like right now, they had been both bored to death. Only this time, instead of ambient, inoffensive music and humdrum conversations, the background noise was the sounds of picks and dirt being moved about. It seemed like such a long time ago…

As she turned to face him, a flash of annoyance crossed her face when she noticed he wasn’t wearing his helmet, but still being awash in childhood memories, she smirked at her charge. "Well, they’ve ‘narrowed’ their search, but honestly, I think he said that just to get me to leave.” She huffed in a way that Rowan would’ve recognized, since he had often been on the receiving end of such an expression. “If I were in charge of this operation, we would’ve already found what we were looking for and be on our way home.” She frowned and glanced downward for a few moments, before straightening up and taking a more authoritative tone. “Put on your helmet and walk with me.”

As she started to walk, under her breath, but loud enough for him to hear, she huffed, “Honestly, Rowan, have some professionalism.” Then, more quietly, she added, “We all know your hair looks nice, but you’re a SOLDIER.”

She didn’t have a particular destination in mind, so she strode over to the nearest dig site and watched the diggers as they did their work. “I get that the men want something to do other than do the same patrols over and over again.” The tone of her voice had lost the authority it previously had, and had now taken a tone that would’ve suggested to her other soldiers that maybe she was human after all. “Unfortunately, I’m at the mercy of the Science Team.” She absently kicked a small pebble. “Patrolling the slums of Midgar was better than this.” She leaned back on her heels and put her hands on her hips as she glanced skyward. “I like to think you’re my ‘man on the inside.’ How is morale right now?” This wasn’t exactly something that consumed Lapin’s thoughts, but she wanted to make small talk with her old frenemy, just to keep her mind occupied until either the Science Team found what they were looking for, or the AVALANCHE members revealed themselves...or more likely, both.

"Ugh! I am SO bored!"

Lapin's eye twitched ever so slightly and she grimaced as she walked past the 3rd Class SOLDIER under her command. When a long, loud sigh escaped the man's lips, Lapin turned on her heel and faced her subordinate. Despite being shorter than he, as she stepped toward him, he took a step back. "If you are so bored," Lapin scolded, "Maybe you should go on a patrol around the perimeter again." She stood as tall as she could as she glanced around at several other idle SOLDIERS and Shinra troops. "Take some friends with you, too, if you want someone to talk to." With that command, she swiftly turned away from him and strode away, taking note of the exasperated sigh he probably thought she wouldn't hear.

When she was had gotten a sufficient distance away from him, her shoulders slumped and she let out a sigh of her own. There were days, she mused, that the burden of being a commander weighed on her. Today was one of those days. According to reports, the Science Team hadn't found what they were looking for, and the troops were getting antsy. Even Lapin, whose unbridled excitement of all things archeological led her to volunteer for this escort mission, was secretly hoping that the allegedly hidden AVALANCHE members would just expose themselves so she and her unit could apprehend them and get some much-needed action.

Soon, her destination was in view: The Science Team's tent. With all of the authority that her position afforded her, she lifted the flap and let herself in. Within, she found the team's lead, along with a few other archaeologists clad in the Shinra Science team uniform, barely a speck of dust to be found. The real work was being done by their underlings who slaved away in their evenly spaced quadrants throughout the camp.

The lead scientist glanced up from his maps and adjusted his spectacles. "Ah, Miss Delacroix. Always a pleasure." His barely contained annoyance wasn't lost on the young SOLDIER, but she didn't care.

"I prefer to be called 'Ma'am'; I didn't apply to and pass the SOLDIER exams to be called 'Miss'." Lapin waited for him to grunt an acknowledgment before continuing. "I'm also not here for small talk."

"Of course...Ma'am. To what do I owe this pleasure?"

"What progress have you made in finding your artifact? My men are..." She stopped herself before she said something improper. After quickly collecting her thoughts, she continued. "I'm sure even your superiors are wanting to see any results by now."

The Lead pulled his glasses down and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Ugh, are even the grunts breathing down my neck now? Look, Ma'am, we are doing our best with what we have. When every day is plagued with new murmurings of bloody AVALANCHE insurrections at every turn...well, the work has been going more slowly than hoped." He paused, then added, "We're narrowing our search and we should be seeing results soon." He pushed his glasses back up on his nose, then addressed Lapin as one would a small child. "And if you wouldn't mind, I'd like to speak to my team about how we're going to narrow our focus without any more interruptions, please and thank you."

Lapin pursed her lips, but restrained herself, knowing that discretion is the better part of valor. "Good," she replied curtly. She turned on her heel and left the tent as brusquely as when she had entered.

Finding herself alone once again, she surveyed the area and sighed. It was going to be another long day.

Lapin Delacroix

SOLDIER Class: 2nd “Eagle Wings”



Name
Lapin Delacroix
(of House Delacroix)

Age
20

Date of Birth
April 8, εγλ 1981

Gender
Female

Height
5’3”

Weight
122lbs

Hair Color
Black

Written Description
Lapin, despite almost always being clad in the uniform of a 2nd Class SOLDIER and being rather short, always carries herself with an air of poise and dignity. Since her hair is naturally long, when she’s on duty, she keeps it up in a bun, except for the parts of her hair that mutated due to the Summon Fusion experiment.

As a result of being bonded with Carbuncle, she has a diamond-shaped, red gem in her forehead, as well as a pair of long, ear-shaped extensions in her hair, which start just above her natural ears and hang down to just below her shoulders.

Personality
Lapin conducts herself as she believes a lady should conduct herself: she speaks articulately, she’s rarely rude or crass, and she tries to be friendly to everyone even if it’s only because she feels obligated to do so. She’s quick to speak her mind if she believes that it can benefit the group, and this can at times put her at odds with her subordinates, who probably don’t have the education and refinement that she does. Her role as a 2nd Class SOLDIER dictates, at least to her, that she should not get especially close to any of her subordinates, so she can come across as aloof and at times withdrawn. She is ever ready to please her superiors as she has a reputation to maintain as a Delacroix.

In her downtime, she enjoys reading history books or sharing her knowledge with her more inquisitive comrades. She also likes to play games that require tactical thinking, such as King’s Field, or chess, and even though she may not win every game, she enjoys the challenge. Also, she recently discovered that she likes dogs, as she’s never had any pets growing up but sees them quite frequently on her travels. She thinks their little, dark eyes and noses are simply adorable!

She doesn’t anger easily, at least not visibly, but the easiest way to get a rise out of her is to compare her to a rabbit. She’s well aware of what her name means in another language, but her name is not Rabbit, it is Lapin. She’s generally annoyed by her mutation which lets people draw even more similarities between her and Leporidae but she tries not to let it bug her too much. Using that as a jumping off point, Lapin is also annoyed by people who are rude for rudeness’ sake, and if that person happens to be a subordinate, she will certainly call them out on it. As a representative of SOLDIER and the Shinra Corporation, as well as being a Delacroix, she believes that she has to maintain a standard of behavior.

Background
In times long ago, it is told that if a person or persons were in need of protection, they could send a prayer on the wings of a bird and before too long, The Delacroix would appear to defend them from whatever troubles would beset them.

This is the glamorous part of the legend, and the part that Lapin prefers to cite when asked about her heritage. In reality, the Delacroix were a band of mercenaries of various ethnic backgrounds who offered their protection services for the right price. They were known for using only shields as their primary weapons.

Fast forward to a couple of generations ago, when Shinra Electric Power Company had only recently discovered Mako energy. The Delacroix by this time had become the private security firm “Delacroix Security Solutions”, and had made quite a name for themselves as one of the top security firms in the world. Seeing an opportunity to build a powerful business relationship, Delacroix approached Shinra and offered its services; Shinra, at this time, could not possibly have enough resources to protect all of its assets: the Mako mines, their fledgling reactors, and all of its other business holdings. Delacroix were hired, and Shinra began to prosper. Shortly after Midgar was completed, Shinra was able to buy out Delacroix and assimilate them into their own security forces, setting the Delacroix family for life.

Lapin is the only child of Konejo and Usagi Delacroix, and because of this, her parents were able to devote all of their time (read, their servants’ time) to her care, education, and upbringing.

She knew nothing but only the finest luxuries growing up, but was also aware of the strife and hardships that occurred under her feet in the slums of Midgar, and she was sympathetic, though she never actually ventured anywhere near the slums and always more or less assumed that Shinra Inc always had their best interests in mind.

Having grown up with the finest education Midgar had to offer, and with such a rich family history herself, in her downtime, she dove into educating herself in the ways of the Delcroix fighting style (mostly as a hobby, but also as a way to carry on her family’s legacy of protecting the downtrodden since there was now no business for her to inherit). She became quite adept with the fighting style and, when she turned 18, applied directly for the SOLDIER program, based on nothing more than her own skill, pedigree, and desire to make Midgar (and by her reasoning, the world) a better place.

Lapin, despite almost always being clad in the uniform of a 2nd Class SOLDIER and being rather short, always carries herself with an air of poise and dignity. Since her hair is naturally long, when she’s on duty, she keeps it up in a bun, except for the parts of her hair that mutated due to the Summon Fusion experiment.

As a result of being bonded with Carbuncle, she has a diamond-shaped, red gem in her forehead, as well as a pair of long, ear-shaped extensions in her hair, which start just above her natural ears and hang down to just below her shoulders.

Personality
Lapin conducts herself as she believes a lady should conduct herself: she speaks articulately, she’s rarely rude or crass, and she tries to be friendly to everyone even if it’s only because she feels obligated to do so. She’s quick to speak her mind if she believes that it can benefit the group, and this can at times put her at odds with her subordinates, who probably don’t have the education and refinement that she does. Her role as a 2nd Class SOLDIER dictates, at least to her, that she should not get especially close to any of her subordinates, so she can come across as aloof and at times withdrawn. She is ever ready to please her superiors as she has a reputation to maintain as a Delacroix.

In her downtime, she enjoys reading history books or sharing her knowledge with her more inquisitive comrades. She also likes to play games that require tactical thinking, such as King’s Field, or chess, and even though she may not win every game, she enjoys the challenge. Also, she recently discovered that she likes dogs, as she’s never had any pets growing up but sees them quite frequently on her travels. She thinks their little, dark eyes and noses are simply adorable!

She doesn’t anger easily, at least not visibly, but the easiest way to get a rise out of her is to compare her to a rabbit. She’s well aware of what her name means in another language, but her name is not Rabbit, it is Lapin. She’s generally annoyed by her mutation which lets people draw even more similarities between her and Leporidae but she tries not to let it bug her too much. Using that as a jumping off point, Lapin is also annoyed by people who are rude for rudeness’ sake, and if that person happens to be a subordinate, she will certainly call them out on it. As a representative of SOLDIER and the Shinra Corporation, as well as being a Delacroix, she believes that she has to maintain a standard of behavior.

Background
In times long ago, it is told that if a person or persons were in need of protection, they could send a prayer on the wings of a bird and before too long, The Delacroix would appear to defend them from whatever troubles would beset them.

This is the glamorous part of the legend, and the part that Lapin prefers to cite when asked about her heritage. In reality, the Delacroix were a band of mercenaries of various ethnic backgrounds who offered their protection services for the right price. They were known for using only shields as their primary weapons.

Fast forward to a couple of generations ago, when Shinra Electric Power Company had only recently discovered Mako energy. The Delacroix by this time had become the private security firm “Delacroix Security Solutions”, and had made quite a name for themselves as one of the top security firms in the world. Seeing an opportunity to build a powerful business relationship, Delacroix approached Shinra and offered its services; Shinra, at this time, could not possibly have enough resources to protect all of its assets: the Mako mines, their fledgling reactors, and all of its other business holdings. Delacroix were hired, and Shinra began to prosper. Shortly after Midgar was completed, Shinra was able to buy out Delacroix and assimilate them into their own security forces, setting the Delacroix family for life.

Lapin is the only child of Konejo and Usagi Delacroix, and because of this, her parents were able to devote all of their time (read, their servants’ time) to her care, education, and upbringing.

She knew nothing but only the finest luxuries growing up, but was also aware of the strife and hardships that occurred under her feet in the slums of Midgar, and she was sympathetic, though she never actually ventured anywhere near the slums and always more or less assumed that Shinra Inc always had their best interests in mind.

Having grown up with the finest education Midgar had to offer, and with such a rich family history herself, in her downtime, she dove into educating herself in the ways of the Delcroix fighting style (mostly as a hobby, but also as a way to carry on her family’s legacy of protecting the downtrodden since there was now no business for her to inherit). She became quite adept with the fighting style and, when she turned 18, applied directly for the SOLDIER program, based on nothing more than her own skill, pedigree, and desire to make Midgar (and by her reasoning, the world) a better place.
