PILOT
Name: Ryan Lissy
Age: 25
Height: 5'9"
Weight: 150 lbs
Background: Freedom Fighter
Bio: Ryan used to serve as the mechanic and fourth member of a small band calling themselves the Eagles. They were a group of idealistic young pilots who opposed the Monolith for abandoning the rest of the world. The group started off doing odd jobs here and there but eventually grew in size to a group of about 16 pilots (it was difficult to keep track since people came and went as they pleased). The four original founders became the leaders of the group with Cameron, the original founder, as the big boss.
For a while the gang felt unstoppable, jobs were easy due to their sheer manpower. They even took on The Seaboard Frontier a few times and won with the aid of guerrilla tactics. All was well and good until they got greedy and attacked a SF camp. The idea was they needed to grow faster if they ever wanted to take on the Monolith, so they decided to steal resources from well equipped groups. But they weren't as invincible as they thought and barely made it out with their lives. The group shrunk by 60% due to death and pilots abandoning. After that constant arguments and disagreements kept splitting the group until only Ryan and Cameron were left. The two went back to taking simple jobs and wandering about. It was kind of nice, peaceful even. But the two eventually went their separate ways due to personal reasons.
Now Ryan is just trying to make enough cash to keep her mech running.
Description:
FRAME:
Name: Argon Mk 7
Description:
Weight Class: 5
Weapons Descriptions: The main weapon is a standard combat rifle that boasts minimum recoil. The rifle has been equipped with an optional silent mode and quick change mags. Silent mode dampens sound and decreases muzzle flare, and the mags are designed to be cheap, dispensable, and easy to change. In addition it has a wrist-mounted grenade launcher on one arm that fires standard explosives and smoke grenades. There's also a small utility knife for emergencies.
Additional Notes: The Argon was designed to be as cheap and efficient as possible, which influenced several design features which made it successful. The simplicity of the design meant the CVF was extremely reliable, being able to function in all kinds of environments from humid jungles to hot deserts. In addition parts are very easy to replace and upgrade, which made the Argon extremely customizable (making it popular amongst mechanics and modders). In order to keep the price low, the Argon was equipped with a rather mediocre engine. Because of this, the entire design was built to be extremely efficient in order to make it competitive with other CVFs. And the weaker engine also made it very silent (both audibly and thermally), making it a popular scout/recon CVF. During the war, the Argon was commonly used as cannon fodder, so parts can easily be found on old battlefields. And because of its simple design, even newer Argon models can utilize parts from the original designs.
Past Encounter: Ryan once took on an entire 5 Frame squad by herself. Using guerrilla tactics, she spent 4 days crawling through the jungle and stalking her prey. She managed to disable 2 of them and divert the others long enough for backup to arrive.
