Hanna von Falkenheim

With a heavy sigh, the young woman leaned back in her cockpit as the burning wreckage of some god awful junk plane fell into lake of Corona Park. Another unfulfilling kill during another unfulfilling day. These past few months have made Hanna anxious, restless even. The question of when to attack was always floating around her mind. Perhaps these weak governors that hired her would be just satisfied with hiding behind her guns? Well today answered that as she was called for the first time since arriving at this pit of scum to a meeting with the other pilots and the leader of the council that was the closest thing to a government in these parts.

The Focker-Wulf 148 "RedTail" banked as she headed to the main airfield of the region. It was needless to say that her expectations for the other pilots was.... exceedingly low. "They probably wouldn't even survive the first week of one of my training regiments..." Hanna wondered aloud as the plane was on approach. Greeting the control tower with her practically trademark monotone voice, the aircraft began its decent onto the runway.

It was apparent that the pilots had already arrive. A shame, really, as it meant they weren't entirely useless, yet will most likely still get in Hanna's way. The tricycle gear of the 148 lowered and the tell tale high pitch hum of the aircraft's turboprop engine began to whine down as the plane's wheels touched the ground without a sound. After a brief taxiing, Hanna climbed into a waiting car that took her to the governor's office.

Hanna entered the waiting room, looking as clean cut and sharp as ever, and noticed that the pilot designated as "Staten Island" was also waiting. Without a word, Hanna silently went over to the coffee maker and poured herself a cup of coffee. All the while, she sized up the pilot with her piercing orange eyes. She seemed to be fairly unassuming, looking almost no different from the street rabble Hanna shot down a daily basis. With a sigh, she took a seat across the room, paying no mind to the pilot.

To Hanna, it seemed, that this pilot was not worth the oxygen.

What ever do you mean? I said 180... of course.... shut up.

@Dynamo Frokane

Alright, CS is pretty much done. Tweaking things here and there with the bio, but other than that, its good. You might want to check it out as I decided to do a complete 180 and change everything except the plane. I just wasn't feeling it with Katherine.

Oh yeah, don't worry. I just copied the sheet from the previous one so some stuff was left over.

A work in progess. The rest will be done tonight.

Hanna von Falkenheim

"Shootings will continue until moral improves."

Hanna von Falkenheim

Age:
27
Height:
5'6
Weight:
110
Pilot Class:
Rabbit
Nationality:
Austrian
Bio:

"The weak turn to the opiate of the masses known as "God" praying that some psychotic being of immense power might grant them mercy. I seek no such solace, as I am seemingly always at war with fate."
-Hanna von Falkenheim, during the war on Karlsland.

Austria, a beautiful land of mountains, skiing, and architecture, found itself at the front lines when the WEC declared all out war on the military state of Karlsland. At the time, Hanna was a young patriot, who saw it as a war to civilize Europe. On a very deep, personal level, it meant to squeeze out the weak minded, perhaps finally end a turbulent time, and move on to higher thinking. This was her motivation, her drive as she volunteered for the ranks. She was going to help her homeland and this attempt at recreating the civilized world of before, or die trying.

Attending officer school at a young age, she was quickly promoted and was given command of a flight of hunter aircraft. This was to be her first combat experience, leading a bombing raid on an unsuspecting factory complex. It was a total strategic success and she found great joy in watching those factories burn. It was a taste of weakness. Not on her part, mind you, but on others. It made her realize how simple this "game" was, and made her worry.

For this, she was promoted to being an instructor for Austria's contribution to the WEC forces, and was given a heavy fighter to replace her hunter. Another sign of this tell-tale "weakness". If it were this easy to move up, who was running this war? Regardless, she still took this promotion and instructing job seriously and began her work to forge battle ready pilots. As it turned out, she was.... to good at her job. On one hand, she raised some of the finest, more efficient pilots her country had seen, but on the other, well, she did so through incredibly brutal methods. Beatings, executions, and downright mental abuse of her students gave her a dark reputation that many feared. However, there was a war going on, and thus nobody complained when Hanna got results.

During this time, Hanna learned of the more fundamental weaknesses of mankind. So many flaws in their emotions, their inability to accept sacrifice in the selfish desire of their own utterly worthless lives. This war would not be the end, no, she had to do more. She had to do everything in her power to climb the ranks, so that she could take power and fix this weakness in mankind, or else they were doomed to repeat it all. It was her new resolve, her new higher calling to take back this world from the manipulative hands of fate, of even God. Immediately, Hanna began to focus on ranking up, of climbing the ladder. For in the chaos of war, it was her opportunity to do so. But then, just like that, the war was over. WEC no longer needed such soldiers like Hanna.

No less than a few months later, Hanna was suddenly forced to be "honorably" discharged.

This act of betrayal, from the country she had worked so hard for... it sent her over the edge. It was all over, this country, these leaders were just going to repeat the mistakes of the past! Did they not understand that order, through any means necessary, is preferable to the horrible alternative of constant war?? Why, why would they be so blind to their own hubris? Rumors have it that she killed the very messenger who delivered it, and that "accidental" discharge of cannon was anything but when it blew up her old commander's transport. Regardless, what is known is that she took her plane and left, becoming a fearsome mercenary for anyone other than the WEC. It is said that if at any point she comes across a WEC force while on the job, she'll happily execute every last one of them.

Only a little later, when the weak governors of the old American city New York reached out for help, did she see her chance and decided to take up the offer. Hanna would whip this rotten city into shape.... Perhaps it was yet another chance... another ladder. And she will will climb that ladder.

By Any Means Necessary

Theme Song:

Focke-Wulf 148

Name:
The Focke-Wulf 148 "RedTail"
Description:

A duel turboprop engine, heavy fighter used by both WEC and the former Karlslandic forces. This was a monster of an aircraft, boasting of heavy firepower and speed. Despite its larger wingspan and heavier weight, the 148 is a agile craft, making it an excellent heavy fighter. Due to the complex nature of its two turboprop engines, driving twin propellers, this aircraft was expensive and hard to produce. Regardless, it was seen as one of the more higher end aircraft to come out of the war. The aircraft performs at its best when engaged with single enemy's or hunter type aircraft thanks to its heavy armament. However, when faced against multiple fighter type aircraft, this plane is at a disadvantage due to its lower battlefield situational awareness. This aircraft will depend heavily on Scanner aircraft in the area to perform in heavy combat.
Plane Type:
Heavy Fighter
Weapons Descriptions:
2 high velocity 30mm rotatory cannons.
2 high velocity 20mm rotatory cannons.
4 HV Interceptor missiles
2 AA cluster missiles
4 medium sized slots for ground attacks if need be
Extra armoring
Booster Fuel

Weaknesses:
Despite its agility, the Focke-Wulf 148 is an abnormally large aircraft, so it can be easier to hit. With it's original intentions to be a "raider" type aircraft, the fighter modifications can only do so much. In a dogfight, lighter, smaller aircraft will always have the advantage in maneuverability. Also, if the booster fuel is used, the plane will burn out quickly soon after and will be forced to land for refueling, thus its usually used as a last ditch escape plane.

<Snipped quote by Dynamo Frokane>

Thanks for the invite, but my understanding of warplanes is practically non-existent. Unless you'll let me pilot a B-17 Flying Fortress, which I realize is a ridiculous request since those are manned by a crew rather than a single pilot. But I tend to go for heavier, 'tankier' machines.

@Stern Algorithm

Are you kidding me? We had a freakin B-52 Strato bomber as one of the planes of the first rp, who was manned by one man. There's plenty of leeway when it comes to that sort of stuff, as the GM would agree.

Also, I'm her and will be throwing up a CS.

Sky Warriors Extended Universe

I don't say this enough, but I love you @Skepic.

You already know how to write up a CS for this, I eagerly await your character.

Also I added a nod to Ava Falke's homeland of Karsland in Larcen's backstory, hopefully you dont mind the retcon of them being an enemy of the coalition.

Also NY5 is set 6 months before the events of the Sky Warriors RP.

@Dynamo Frokane

Is all good! I like how all the stories are sort of interconnected, but what about the independent republic of Virginia?? Brah, where's my "Sic semper tyrannis" at?? (actually I don't care that much, its up to you. I just figured you'd forgotten about my character for the Red Baroness's crew)

@Dynamo Frokane

Ya better be ready for me to grab my SKYLY D:


Because Queens is coming for you.

/also thanks, sort of been waiting for this kind of thing. xD
