She stands at five foot nine inches tall and has a lean athletic build that she keeps in shape through various exercises, her favorites being parkour mostly. Has gray eyes. Also a scar line from the bottom of her hair line to her ear on the left side.
BIO: Art doesnât really talk much about her past if ever. She grew up in the backwoods of a Southern state where she learned the craft of hunting. By the time she was in high school she had lost half her family, her jet black hair had turned white, and she was a famed junior hunter and marksman. As soon as she graduated high school she was shipped out to Army basic training. She never looked behind her forsaking all of her history and trying to erase who she once was. She was one of the only ones who graduated with perfect marks. After six months in active service she put in the request to go into the Rangers to be a sniper as all military positions had been opened up to females by the time she was in. During one of her missions her spotter was killed and she received the scar to the side of her face. Art was nearing the end of her service time when questionable circumstances occurred. There were unsolved mysteries around how Switch came to work at CyberTech. She alone knows the truth and she never spoke of it even facing a dishonorable discharge. Almost as soon as she started her new job she was pulled to be on the 102nd Special Activities Division. Art makes friends easily and knows how to have a good time, but most of the time sheâs cold and aloof to everything. She loves what she does and canât imagine doing anything else.
Specialty Weapon: AS50 semi-automatic rifle. Ten round clip. On even more special occasions will pull out the Barrett .50 rifle.
AS50
Barrett .50
Mono-molecular Wire Shot
Experimental weapon in testing stage. The MWS is a special round that is built with a variable setting distance/time-released, computer chip powered system that allows the round to "explode" in midair. When detonated, the armor penetrating mono-molecular shards explode outward not unlike a shotgun pellet, with a radius allowing it to hit the majority of targets within the zone, making it easier for the sniper to take down moving targets. Even if the target is not critically hit, the shards were designed to carry an electrical current that would stun what was caught within the blast radius.
Sidearms: Colt 1911 . 45 and two Smith and Wesson Sigmas .9 It may not be a gun but she is never without some type of knife, usually a switchblade.
Equipment: Compass, spotting scope that calculates distance, wind speed, etc, extra bag full of ammo, basic medical kit since sheâs not always with the rest of her tem, extra canteen, cleaning kit with extra rifle oil. Includes the AEGIS suit and ALICE.
Other: No one knows her first name and if they found out and called her by the whole thing, she would likely turn on them, teammate or not. On a side note she can make her own bullets and when not on missions always has headphones in her ears. She canât stand silence except on missions. Has a slight accent that comes out when she is excited or upset that gives away to any other Southern person who lives in neighboring areas where she came from.
