CHIEF WARRANT OFFICER GRADE 3 Mieszko K. Hyde

► Show Spoiler

Full name: Mieszko Kataryzna Hyde (prev. Arabelle Kataryzna Liefstadt)

Nickname(s): Callsign "Nix"; "Ara" ; "Belle" : "Redhead" ; "Sinon"

Age: 28

Birth date: Information undetermined.

Gender: Female

Position:

SULACO: Marine: {SQUAD LEADER}, {ENGINEER}, {STANDARD}, SQUAD MEDIC| Officer: {LOGISTICS}, {COMMANDER} | Military Police: {MP Standard}

OVERALL: Chief Warrant Officer Grade 3, Tac. Intelligence Officer {UNDETERMINED CLASSIFICATION}

Notable traits:

{-} Mieszko has been proven to be able to either break an entire squad of Marines, or reform them. At points where you have incapable Marksmen firing shots into the back of another Marine's head when they're attempting to hit a target about a hundred yards out, the Chief Warrant Officer may be able to change that.

{-} Mieszko holds her head under pressure, managing to often not outwardly react to most squad members or other marines being incapacitated, killed, or otherwise. There are minimal exceptions.

{-} Mieszko is known as a holder of the M41A PULSE RIFLE SHARPSHOOTER brooch for weapon qualification, and is a frequent fighter with a retracted stock M41A.

Persona:

{-} Somewhat cool under pressure.

{-} Semi-aggressive to insubordinates.

{-} Surprisingly not a bitch. Scratch that last note.

{-} Mieszko has undetermined personality amongst "personal favourite" or alternate squad members.

History:

Enlisting with the Colonial Marines as a Private First Class, Mieszko slowly accelerated up the ranks alongside squads in Foxtrot's Phantom Platoon before reaching the rank of Corporal at the age of twenty, with eighteen months total in the field, amongst an average percentile. Mieszko showed promising skill in relaying and using squad members to their best availability, even going as far as to later survive the WOCS to become a Warrant Officer Grade 1, of which she had held for three years running. Previous positions include Squad Designated Marksman with the M41A Pulse Rifle in Phantom Platoon, and later, Squad Leader of Exile Squad in Phantom Platoon. Liefstadt, now legally name-changed to Mieszko, has, due to duties with Foxtrot's Phantom Platoon, after being removed from the Sulaco's reserves, been awarded Chief Warrant Officer Grade 3 in rank.

Relations:

WO-1 Kasia Hyde served as CWO-3 Mieszko's spotter in Exile Squad of Phantom Platoon as a Designated Marksman, and was the Squad Automatic Rifleman and Heavy Ordinance and Weaponry Specialist (HOWS). The two get along quite well.

PFC Salamanca served as CWO-3 Mieszko's Grenadier in Exile Squad, and was killed during insertion to a free-fire zone.

CPL Abrams served as CWO-3 Mieszko's Squad Medic in Exile Squad, and was killed during insertion to a free-fire zone whilst attempting to resusciate PFC Salamanca from a critical state with minimal cover from the other two members of Exile Squad.

LCPL Crews served as CWO-3 Mieszko's Rifleman in Exile Squad, and was able to survive the insertion to the free-fire zone. Crews was mortally wounded by 10mm fire whilst covering CWO-3 Mieszko and CWO-2 Hyde, and extracted personally by Hyde.

Basic appearance:

Mieszko stands at the height of 5'3", with red hair that manages to reach her upper back, if not her shoulders. Often tied back in a ponytail or let loose, her hair doesn't seem to get in the way of her and a clear shot with a rifle. Mieszko's facial features aren't as chiseled, though she isn't much of a difference from the average woman in other ways. She sustains minor scarring to the abdomen and left shoulder from injuries sustained through 9mm fire, and blunt force respectively. She has dark green eyes.

Likes:

{-} Firearms, more noticeably the M41A Pulse Rifle.

{-} Kasia Hyde.

{-} A decent bottle of Captain Morgan's Rum.

{-} Etcetera.

Dislikes:

{-} Xurphorous Durgens.

{-} Constant, if not common direct injuries.

{-} Falling heights of thirteen feet or greater.

{-} Etcetera.

Strengths:

{-} Qualified Sharpshooter with the M41A Pulse Rifle.

{-} Rivaled on average in Close Quarters Combat with the standard Marine Combat Knife and M4A3 Service Pistols respectively.

{-} Capable of withstanding the shock and further pain of being shot with one 9mm round, initially, through indirect application of force.

Weaknesses:

{-} Deathly allergic to bullets greater than 9mm caliber.

{-} Morale is easily if not directly lost by Mieszko with the possible death or execution of {REDACTED}, {REDACTED}, and/or {REDACTED} in combat.

Other Info:
Non applicable.

WARRANT OFFICER GRADE 1 K. "CADIA" HYDE

► Show Spoiler

Full name: Kataryzna L. Hyde

Nickname(s): Callsign "Cadia"

Age: 27

Birth date: Undetermined information.

Gender: Female

Position:

SULACO: Marine: {SQUAD LEADER}, {MEDIC}, {STANDARD} | Military Police: {MP Standard}

OVERALL: Warrant Officer Grade 1, Tac. Intelligence Officer {UNDETERMINED CLASSIFICATION}

Notable traits:

{-} Hyde is the first woman you might want at your back with a weapon that weighs heavier than she does, and armour to boot.

{-} Capable of withstanding weight of hardsuits for prolonged to possibly even indefinite durations due to premature experience and conditioning.

{-} Accurately capable of keeping her cool under pressure.

Persona:

{-} Not very well matured, but still quite well tasked on operations. Kasia's personality appears to be an indefinite flip of a switch from her normal
persona, to somewhat much more of a serious act.

History:

Enlisting with the Colonial Marines as a Officer Cadet in a Reserve Officers Training Corps, Kataryzna Hyde was working to enter as soon as she left college. Despite being at the child-height of four-ten, she remained at what could be considered top honours within her class as a C/Captain, and was offered a commission, which was quickly turned into being waived into basic training and a Warrant when granted her success once her height came into play. Nonetheless, Hyde succeeded with the difficulties of basic, coming close to failure several times, and has proven her worth in the first echelon of skillsets with being one of few marines on the NMV Sulaco whom has actually chosen to do her Advanced Medical Training courses.

Relations:

CWO-3 Mieszko Hyde served as WO-1 Hyde's Squad Leader in Exile Squad of Phantom Platoon as a Squad Automatic Rifleman and Spotter, as well as Heavy Ordinance and Weaponry Specialist (HOWS). The two get along incredibly well.

PFC Salamanca served as WO-1 Hyde's Grenadier in Exile Squad, and was killed during insertion to a free-fire zone.

CPL Abrams served as WO-1 Hyde's Squad Medic in Exile Squad, and was killed during insertion to a free-fire zone whilst attempting to resuscitate PFC Salamanca from a critical state with minimal cover from the other two members of Exile Squad.

LCPL Crews served as WO-1 Hyde's Rifleman in Exile Squad, and was able to survive the insertion to the free-fire zone. Crews was mortally wounded by 10mm fire whilst covering CWO-3 Mieszko and WO-1 Hyde, and extracted personally by Hyde.

Basic appearance:

Kataryzna clocks in at the very short height of 4'10", with blonde hair that reaches down to her shoulders. Her hair is slightly tied back, to ensure that it doesn't get into her face during movement and freefire. Throughout deployments for the Colonial Marines, it seems that Hyde has suffered minimal hits to the face, given how undamaged it seems. From time to time, her light blue eyes continue on a panicked glance around the room before calming.

Likes:

{-} Heavy armour plating and ordinance.

{-} Mieszko.

{-} Alcohol.

{-} Etcetera.

Dislikes:

{-} Getting shot, clearly.

{-} Self-related injuries in general.

{-} The prospect of giving birth to or being forced to care for an underaged youth. Seeing what's in store for her future would be devastating.

Strengths:

{-} Prolonged exposure to heavy plating equipment has minimal effect on WO Hyde.

{-} Hyde excels in provision of suppressing fire against one or more hostile combatants.

{-} Hyde is less stricken by the deaths of PFC Salamanca and CPL Abrams.
Weaknesses:

{-} Hyde is not one to run from a fight, which is a rather foolish instillment on her part. Over the years of torture that one would consider the Colonial
Marine Corps, Kasia has run into more head-first engagements than any member previously noted from Phantom Platoon or Foxtrot Company as a whole.

{-} Hyde cannot bear prolonged amounts of stress versus morale, including mental and-or physical assaults from other marines.

{-} Sometimes Hyde is perseverance as someone 'too childish', which may effect her ability to respond to life-threatening situations, though this is unlikely and nearly fully undetermined.

SERGEANT A. "FIREWALL" CREWS

► Show Spoiler

Full name: Ashton Francis Crews

Nickname(s): Callsign "Firewall", "Shit-for-brains", "Bulletproof"

Age: 26

Birth date: Undetermined information.

Gender: Male

Position: Marine: {Standard}

Notable traits:

{-} Through repeated testing upon being brought into a better medical state and drawn back into duty for the Colonial Marine Corps, previously Lance Corporal Crews has proven his efficiency with the M240 Incineration Unit.

{-} Sgt. Crews seems to be capable of getting over most damage that would, normally, kill other marines, possibly owing in reference to his survival during Operation Lionheart -($*%#@ SEEK FOOTAGE ACCESS

{-} Crews is a stickler for following orders and remaining in the fight.

Persona:

{-} Fairly mature, very well tasked. In some points where all three transferred to Reserve Platoon Foxtrot aboard the NMV Sulaco, and have been deployed on training operations together, Crews has deemed some squad synchronization and the best ability to work with Hyde and Hyde in deployment.

History:

Sergeant Crews enlisted with the Colonial Marines at the age of eighteen, as soon as he was prepared on his birthday. Crews entered basic, and made it through on the standards with some trouble. He was significantly better than his training squad in Basic Combat Training, going as far as to specialize in the M41A Rifle and usage of his M4A3 sidearm. Crews put minimal effort into his Basic Medical Training, still picking up a few needed things, before his transition as a Infantryman to Foxtrot Company's "Phantom Platoon", finding his place in Exile Squad during the reign of their previous squad leader.

Relations:

CWO-3 Mieszko Hyde served as Sgt. Crews' Squad Leader in Exile Squad of Phantom Platoon as a Squad Rifleman.

PFC Salamanca served as Sgt. Crews' Grenadier in Exile Squad, and was killed during insertion to a free-fire zone. Salamanca seemed to be the most disliked squad member by Crews.

CPL Abrams served as Sgt. Crews' Squad Medic in Exile Squad, and was killed during insertion to a free-fire zone whilst attempting to resuscitate PFC Salamanca from a critical state with minimal cover from the other two members of Exile Squad. Abrams and Crews treated one another like blood brothers.

WO-1 Hyde served as Sgt. Crews' fireteam partner and battle buddy in Exile Squad, to the point that Hyde was able and willing to withdraw the marine from an incapacitated state during evacuation from the immediate LZ.

Basic appearance:

Lance Corporal Crews stands at the height of five foot eleven, with short black hair and as minimal facial hair as he could oblige. The man is fairly well built, and ultimately watchful in regards to his squad, whomever he may be deployed with. The marine has some scarring of varying types, the most prominent being the bullet wound scar that struck him in Operation Lionheart, due to his state and the treatment for the wound.

Likes:

{-} Kataryzna Hyde, as a sister.

{-} Mieszko Hyde, as a sister.

{-} Alcohol, preferably rum.

{-} A chance to show what he's worth.

Dislikes:

{-} Failing an operation.

{-} Cigarettes, which doesn't stop him from smoking. Hypocritical bastard.

Strengths:

{-} Excellent combat rifleman, and noticeable for running evacuation for downed marines when necessary.

{-} Perfectly willing to follow any necessary order to the squad, even as far as to the letter.

Weaknesses:

{-} Perfectly willing to follow any necessary order to the squad, even as far as to the letter.

{-} Several limbs are prosthetic, making EMPs wasteful to be deployed near him, though the sacrifice of activating one is not lost on him if necessary.

Other Info:

{-} Crews has been moved to the rank of Lance Corporal for the duration of his time on the NMV Sulaco.

[Triel Wolfblood]

redacted eh

[Dragon2323]

Redacted information signifies laziness of any human being trying to write a character dossier. Writing this on two hours of sleep with a seventy two hour run over... yeah, bad timing. This'll probably be fleshed out further eventually.

[Triel Wolfblood]

XD. i wrote mine at midnight

[SecretStamos (Joshuu)]

I really like the format you used. It makes it fun to read.

[Felkvir]

Pretty good.

[Dragon2323]

The incident of which Exile Squad of Phantom Platoon participated in on an unknown planet, and was nearly wiped out due to, has been judged as releasable information to any senior officer attempting requisition. Third party footage from the uplink camera of Lance Corporal Crews, of Phantom Platoon, has been uploaded for inquiry by any senior officer. If any officer recognizes the terrain of the squad's insertion planet, this is information that may be deemed required in the future.

_{%*###--- ACCESS GRANTED: OPERATION LIONHEART FOOTAGE, PLAYING}

► Show Spoiler

The camera produced an audible click as static overwhelmed the screen, and it finally turned on properly. The UD-4L Cheyenne Dropship, entitled "Steel Rain" due to the adjusted firepower of the left wing MK. 10 ZEUS rocket pods' increased ammunition, finally had its interior come into view. Seated across from the owner of the camera, was an African American male, with a visible red cross scrambled onto his helmet. The male's features were indeterminable from the lack of light in the dropship.

"You awake, then, Crews?" The other male spoke, clenching an M41A with his finger away from the trigger, briefly patting over the doctor's bag at his side to see whether or not he was missing anything.

"No, sir." The owner of the camera, Crews, shook his head briefly, causing some of the footage to blur slightly from the constant movement. It had been a long flight, so it was possible that he was still rather tired from the round in hypersleep.

A voice coming from the right spoke up - a slightly annoyed tone. "You four better stay the fuck awake. You remember the briefing?"

The camera focused on the individual to the right of it, before shaking momentarily once more. "No, ma'am," the voice, indicated as Crews, would state.

The redhead woman had placed her magazine into the M41A she carried, properly pulling at the charging handle to load the Pulse Rifle before setting down between her legs, focusing on Crews for a moment.

"Seven of our buddies from Sanctuary, that fuckin' squad of idiots, are pinned down, he%*%#---"

The audio and video became a shrill shriek of static, before finally coming back in appropriately. A short figure, wearing what would be considered the most amount of armour one might expect from a Colonial Marine, was firing an L6 SAW from a position against a rock. About ten feet to the right of this short figure was the redhead, Liefstadt, whom was firing short bursts with the M41A.

Back to the left, a tan male and the African American - Salamanca and Abrams, respectively, were pinned behind another set of rocks. The camera saw a quick drop in altitude as a M41A was brought to bare in front of it, the sounds of the weapon being discharged beginning to fill the speakers as the owner of the weapon sought immediate cover behind the rock with the short figure - a woman, by the name of Hyde.

"Crews, I'm out!" The woman nearest would shout, dropping back behind cover as the camera drew downwards, towards the webbing of the M3 Pattern Personal Armour, withdrawing a magazine, quickly handed over to Hyde. Miraculously, the ammunition was able to be fed into the L6 SAW, given compatability. Whilst Hyde was busy reloading the L6, Crews began to fire more shots, as gunfire slammed against the rocks.

"Where in the fuck is Sanctuary?! This LZ is hotter than a fucking flamethrower's blaze!" Salamanca shouted out, the noise audibly coming from the left as more rounds were spat from Crews' M41A.

As Salamanca made a move to find cover near Sanctuary's burnt and destroyed APC, three men from their opposing force, with gear almost undetermined, immediately moved from cover with rounds discharged towards Salamanca, about halfway.

Crews fired several ten millimeter rounds, managing to strike one of the men down as he ducked behind the rock once more. Liefstadt was fumbling in her webbing for another magazine for the M41A. Salamanca had fallen to the left, a notable but small pool of blood marking and dotting the sediment and rocks below the man.

Abrams made a clear move up, firing a few more rounds as he attempted to close distance to Salamanca. Loading a newer magazine into the M41A, Crews made the same move up to defend Salamanca, as well as Abrams, as Hyde managed to lay down enough fire to stop further advances from their opposing force.

Several rounds bit the dirt by the camera and it's owner, as the helmet it was perched upon fell to the ground, a shot grazing the camera, cracking the screen and shaking the helmet some. A brown-haired man was laying fire with the M41A, as Abrams fell into view, attempting to place pressure on Salamanca's injuries, the Latino male's face not fully seen. It was clear his eyes were closed, however.

Additional fire bit into the ground, several shots snaking their way past the brown-haired male, Crews, as he pressed his shoulder against the APC. Liefstadt and Hyde were providing sufficient cover, but Abrams had slumped overtop Salamanca, an exit of the round that had killed the medic clear on the back of his helmet, even with the position of the camera.

Crews was the next individual to be hit, whilst Salamanca and Abrams were both dead.

"G%t St*#l R*%# over he%#, da*$^#!" The voice was almost discernible over the constant gunfire and shouting, but not fully. Crews was on his back, whilst heavy footsteps implied the L6 gunner to be moving up, still laying fire in motion.

Several of the opposing men were shot down, as to why they began to pull back to better cover. Liefstadt had slipped into cover by Crews, and Hyde came into better view, no longer firing the L6. Crouching down, the woman placed a tight grip to the top of Crews' armour.

The sounds of the Mk. 10 ZEUS rocket pods lighting up would have been bliss to anyone occupying the combat zone, as Hyde had picked up Crews' helmet, slanting the camera as the woman had also begun to pull the Colonial Marine back as the dropship came into a clear landing. The helmet was almost thrown in, and Crews was pl*#@d *n*%d#-----

The footage cuts out and fails at that point, a shrill cry of white noise following static overtaking the camera.

Off Topic

Just a little bit more insight to the incident that forced the transfer of Kasia and Arabelle to the NMV Sulaco. I thought this'd be interesting, and it got me into my narrative mood some again.

[Triel Wolfblood]

keep up the good work

[speedybst]

indeed, one of the best i've seen in a year.

[Dragon2323]

Happy to hear that you guys like it. Aside from minor tweaks, there isn't much else I could do, though.

[Butterrobber202]

I want bacon

[Dragon2323]

Sergeant A. Crews has been transitioned to the Reserve platoon onboard the NMV Sulaco after requesting to enter active military duty once more and being waived, expected to make deployment for the operation on Lazarus Landing.

Off Topic

I figured I might as well do something with him to get this a little updated. Updated Hyde's a bit, too.
