Battle Hymn of the Republic

That's right folks, September is over, Octobor is upon us, and Summer is officially way gone (Unless you live in So Cal, then it's ALWAYS Summer), so, without further Adieu, we have: The Fall Arc.

Get your brain caps thinking on a quick character, because I have something interesting for you guys to play along with simultaneously to the main Plot (Last year's attempt to make the fall arc part of the plot was only marginally successful)

Set several months before the Hymn's first combat, one of the Iroquois-class scouts that would later call the mammoth Battlecruiser home had a final solo mission. Sent on a Search and Rescue mission, following the mandate of going back to all of the previously known Terran settlements searching for survivors, The UTR Kurokaze finds itself docking with a dilapidated colony built of several asteroids which had been tunneled out and stitched together with massive braces and walkway structures. The Marines of the Kurokaze's Swift company find themselves in a different world than any had ever seen before. They came searching for surviving Terrans, but what they find there is anything but.

If you'd like to join me on this year's fall arc, Post a response to this thread that gives a short overview of your character.

Name: John W. Wengrove
Age: 24
Specialties: Scouting, Communications Tech
Personality: Wengrove, despite the efforts of military training, has remained an incredible nervous person. On the other hand, because of the extra douses of discipline his training sergeants saw fit to force on him. Wengrove works well when doing routine work he has been trained for (such as being point or a forward scout for a squad) and happily works in concert with the his fellow marines. He has a tendency to become easily overwhelmed when things go awry and it is suggested that officers either talk to him before or during a combat operation to keep him focused.
Appearance: Wengrove sports a standard military hair cut, his hair is the colour of tarnished copper, he has dark eyes and is stocky in build with broad shoulders.

Name: John Reese

Appearance:

AAAAHHH!

I mean.

Looks like we have enough people. this thread is now an OOC of sorts, I will shortly be starting the Fall Arc in it's own thread.

Damn Koku! She's like if Suku and Old Cibo had a kid that grew up!

Name: Lolita Sartre
Age: 22
Rank: Private Third Class
Specialty: Heavy Assault
Personality: Lively and energetic.
Appearance: She stands at a healthy 7'6", with a large bust to boot. Lolita usually has flowing blonde hair, but keeps it tucked up in her helmet for the sake of convenience. Her body has a faint hourglass curve to it, and though fit, isn't overly muscular. Electric blue eyes are often seen shining behind visor of her helmet when set to transparent.
Items of Note: Lolita wears a decorative collar around her neck that serves to act as her voice. Due to post traumatic stress disorder, she finds herself unable to speak without electronic assistance, rendering her effectively mute.

Alright, alright, fine. Here ya go

Name: Lutz Schräder
Age: 21
Rank: Private Second Class
Specialty: Light recon, Rifleman
Personality: Adventurous, lively, and a touch boastful.
Appearance: Lutz has a light build and prides himself on having “a runner’s body”. Standing at a height of 5’11”, his weight tops off at a little over 158lbs. He has cropped dark brown hair, honey-brown eyes, and a lightly tanned complexion.
Items of Note: With his slim physique, Lutz’s preferred task on the battlefield is scouting and recon where he is able to dash and stealth his way to get a view of enemy positions. If unable to do this, then he is just fine with picking up flanking positions and other support tasks during firefights.

WHY.
SO.
MANY.
SCOUTS?

Waddaya mean "So many"? We have two now don't we?
EDIT: Wait. No, yeah we have three now. In our defense there are three riflemen

There are only two Riflemen. I also notice that Sarah is the oldest out of you lot.
