Gentle Shine

Mecha, Fighter, Ship; you name it, and Gentle Shine has more than likely piloted it. Always seems to be wearing a blue and silver flight suit, complete with an intricate helmet that veils his features.

Description

Image

Colonel Shine has rarely been seen outside of his full combat jumpsuit and flight helmet, obscuring his features beyond what a casual observation would tell about his physique. He is roughly six foot six, and of middling weight. His muscle mass is fair, considering his primary duties as a pilot.

Further records on Colonel Shine's appearance remain classified at this time.

The CS-27 combat jumpsuit is a marvel of engineering, being one of few issued to military forces. He does not use the standard colors, opting instead for silver in general, with blue markings and stripes here and there. The suit also has a slight camouflage function, allowing the user to modify the color and texture over a matter of minutes. It is entirely airtight with an oxygen supply capable of lasting up to twelve hours, or further extended periods if the subject is put into stasis. Small jets placed on crucial areas of the suit also allow for enhanced mobility in vacuum, the life of which is a maximum of two hours, but can be recharged. In addition, the suit is made of an enhanced polymer that allows a small amount of protection from bullets, but proves sufficient in deflecting most small debris in vacuum. The suit has a number of pockets, slots, and assorted clips to hold smaller objects; two larger pockets on the thighs, a utility belt with ten small pouches and five magazine clips (Interchangeable to allow for more clips/more pouches).

The helmet of the CS-27 also has a number of capabilities. The shaded visor and HUD, and the Antenna which protrudes about an inch away from the back of the head being the most prominent. The helmet has a number of vision modes as well- Night vision, telescopic sights, heat vision, and a few others for miscellaneous tasks.. A voice modulator is also included in the helmet, allowing the subject to change their voice at will. A filtration system is included in the helmet for a steady supply of clean oxygen, which automatically closes if the suit detects radiation, toxins, etc. and reverts to the internal oxygen supplies. Flood lamps are included, in addition to several other small additions such as a detachable snake camera (One hour battery life if detached), radio system, sensory equipment with wind direction/speed monitor, and up-links compatible with most standard weapons and equipment of the EDN and affiliated groups. Similarly to the changing colors of the suit, the visor can change color, externally and internally.

Squad Leader of The Al'Kaera Squadron.

Personality

Colonel Shine has proven to be a competent leader in the field, aside from his reported banter between squadmates- and hostile forces as well. When dealing with superiors he alternates between complete solemnity and flippancy, earning him some manner of contempt. He treats those of lesser rank with a fair amount of respect, encouraging or reprimanding them as he deems the situation warrants. He is deemed calm under pressure, and has proven able to live up to his expectations.

His actions outside of combat could be described as lax at best, taken to social drinking and an interest in women. He seems able to find his way into most social groups when he feels the interest, which has proven both helpful and detrimental to previous operations. Aside from his usually public appearances, time spent on leave remains largely unknown.

Equipment

Colonel Shine has the following immediately on his person;
In addition to the standard Jumpsuit, he has on his combat belt either the I-02 Laser Pistol, or an HK UCP, depending on where his current assignment will take him. This resides on the right of his belt. He also has three combat knives, all of which are hidden in various small pouches that a discerning eye might spot. One is on his left thigh, another on his left breast, and the third, a smaller utility knife, in an internal pouch of his left arm. In heavy combat scenarios he will carry the J-09 Laser Rifle, complete with a sling to be carried on his back, or an HK G36KE, again depending on the locale of his mission.

Non-combat equipment is fairly limited, as far as what he is always carrying. These are two flasks (one reportedly mead, the other bourbon), one water canteen, and two notebooks of unknown use. All of these reside someplace on his belt, with the exception of the mead and one of the notebooks, which are kept in the leg pouches.

In addition, on long journeys, he will carry a combat pack with supplies to last him roughly a month.

History

Records of the so-called 'Gentle Shine', and that of his Al'Kaera Squadron is shrouded in mystery. A man enlisting in the Navy by the name of Valiren Braezan found himself climbing quickly through the ranks until, less than a year later, he was in command of his own squadron.

No civilian records of this so-called Valiren exist, and it is obviously an alias. His reluctance to part ways with his issued combat suit, even when in the presence of superior officers and likewise when on leave is suspicious, to say the least.

What little is known of Valiren outside of his military record suggests that he has no family, and few friends. Every so often our agents will notice him encountering certain recurring individuals, but conversations are always brief and uninteresting. It is speculated that Valiren is a foreign spy, however no solid evidence has been found of his searching for or obtaining records or information of any kind.

He is an unknown, and the unknown is reputedly dangerous. A close eye must be kept on him at all times.

Gentle Shine looks at the Imp, then back to Kazura, then to the little Doll, who was amazingly holding him up. "Yeah, you could tell us what we could do to help, that'd be nice." He had been working with removing his shirt, and having completed this act, began wrapping the bandages around either side of the gaping hole. "I'm not really sure I even have enough bandages to cover this."

Gentle Shine sighs as his bandages run out, covering most of the wound, if not all of it. "Well..." he frowns behind his helmet. "I'll see if I can get an actual medic or... I don't know, a priest or something." He looks at the two of them blankly for a few moments, apparently seeking conversation through an internal communications system on his helmet. It was a bit concerning to him, certainly, though by this point he wasn't sure what to do in the matter.

Gentle Shine looks over at another new arrival, the whimpering woman. His curiosity piqued, he caps his drink and slides it back into a pouch on his person and walks over to the bar, tapping atop it as if requesting a drink.

Gentle Shine ponders this for a moment, rubbing the chin of his helmet. "Depends on how you mean support. I'm just offering help, it's up to you to tell me what kind of help you need," he explains. He caps his drink once again, setting it back into his side pouch as he peers back over the bar.

Gentle Shine frowns behind his helmet; his HUD was warning him of an inbound projectile. Standing and turning his back on the girl in time to see the dagger approaching, he holds out his arm to take the impact instead.

Gentle Shine looks down at Tear Hitsuki as she miraculously teleports in front of himself. "Huh, well thanks." He pats her on the shoulder before flicking a small tube on his helmet, which directs itself at Dalamar Val`en Moonwhisper, apparently intent on keeping an eye on him. He looks over his shoulder to see that the girl was gone.

Gentle Shine watches curiously for a few moments, then sighs to himself and throws his hands halfway up as if unable to fathom people sometimes. As Tear moves in on the assailant as well, he leans on the bar and takes his flask out again. As he sips, he peers over at the previously unnoticed man who was now speaking authoritatively.

Gentle Shine peers up from behind the counter after the blast, peering around the room- which was now fairly peppered in the remains of the table and explosive. Astonishingly, people were untouched.
