Background: Dragoslava was born on Pluto, inside the Paradise colony structure. Like most people from Paradise she lived a miserable life fearing the day support systems might fail and they would all freeze. She took up playing the concertina in her teens to help pass time, jumping at the opportunity to leave and serve in the military once she was 18.
As a Marine Dragoslava saw numerous deployments fresh out of boot camp and surgery. Equipped with a military-grade cybernetic arm she was assigned to the 21st Mechanized Division, operating powered armor on the front lines of suppression operations. The Earth Government's goal was to bring rioting colonies back into line. This made up a majority of assignments given to the Marines.
Sixty years of service presented numerous opportunities for promotions and injuries. After two failed assaults on an enemy stronghold she receiver a cybernetic leg to replace one lost in a disastrous drop operation and cybernetic lungs after a large piece of shrapnel pierced both her armor and her chest. She received two battlefield promotions to replace incompetent commanders, spent time trapped behind enemy lines and, as a Brigadier General, lead a successful planetary assault and occupation.
As a new wave of Marines were being made the old guard was pushed out, resulting in a high number of retirements. Uninterested in continued publish service or an early 'upload' to The Cloud, the retired Dragoslava took to living on a resort planet for a couple of years. Without military life the veteran of 60 service years quickly grew restless. She sold her assets and used her savings to buy a suit of Marine power armor from the black market, soon selling her services as a mercenary. She saves her pay for the inevitable organ and cybernetics replacements she'll need as she grows older.
Personality: Dragoslava, Drago to her friends, can be a stern and serious woman with a playful streak outside of battle. As a youth she was a delinquent child with an adventurous streak that got her into no end of trouble. She was drawn to military service as an escape from her home colony though she soon found that the Marines offered the action her blood craved and the ordered discipline she needed. She's tired mentally but still strong and active physically, continuing her habit as an officer to read and exercise daily when not playing her concertina. She is a known lesbian and even in the service had a habit of flirting with young recruits from other service branches.
Skills: Dragoslava, like most Marines, has an extreme aptitude for battle. She's skilled in fighting with numerous melee weapons and firearms as well as having survival training, stealth training and a basic understanding battlefield medicine. While unable to repair her own powered armor she is a skilled operator, having knowledge of their weapons, sensors and recon abilities. As an officer she learned both Navy and Military tactics, gained leadership skills and instructed other Marines. In her free time she learned the concertina, gambled with other soldiers and taught herself military law.
