The rigors of jumping from airplanes have only served to harden what might have been softer limbs and figure.  Yet the curvy nature of her body was not diminished by the sleek muscles but rather enhanced by contrast so that every movement sets them in motion.  A roguish glint to her eyes can be seen and her smile always bears a touch of mischief.  Once she might have been more shy and awkward but surviving some of the military’s most dangerous rescues has given her an untouched air of confidence that guides her forward.<br/><br/>There are few markings to distinguish her.  The skin on her body remaining flawless and possessing a more youthful glow after becoming infected with the virus.  Still there is a tattoo of the USAF Pararescue emblem over her left shoulder with the words SO THAT OTHERS MAY LIVE set in beautiful script.  To honor her father there is a tattoo of an infamous Devil Dog smoking a cigar on her right rib cage.<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong> <br/><br/>A soldier without an army, without a country and without a war is the position she finds herself in these days.  The marker of KIA has been removed so that she is legally alive now, but that does not help when being hunted by former comrades and family members.  Micah Brooke was once a war hero and is now on the run from everything she knew.  While she has become more cautious in her dealings this has not dampened her spirit or made her any more relaxed in what she feels are her duties.  A great sense of responsibility still lingers with her along with a commanding presence.  At one time she wanted to become a police officer after returning home and in some small part she has reclaimed that part of her life.  Impoverished and shunned communities have become her people, roaming from place to place in order to protect and motivate them to greater possibilities.  She truly does believe in the freedom of the United States and the ability of people to rise above their station in this world.<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong> <br/><br/>Micah Brooke was supposed to be a boy.  Her father, Micah Brooke the Third, told her as much the moment she could understand him.  The fifth daughter to a proud man of the Marine Corp, she came out a disappointing shock to iron man.  True he loved each of his children but Micah was supposed to be a different child, a different breed than his other daughters.  Still he raised her as best he could though in a unique fashion to his other girls.  Where her other siblings took up dance, gymnastics and cheerleading she was pressed into more aggressive sports and activities.  Mixed martial arts, archery and competitive shooting became her hobbies and her father’s pride swelled.  Of course her life changed course when her next sibling was born late in her parent’s life, a proud baby brother.  The family attempted to change gears with their youngest girl, but the seed was already planted.<br/><br/>Aspirations of a military life filled her head when she left for college.  Driving a pink jeep with her heavy metal music blaring, she immediately took up a place in ROTC.  Criminology became her major as she had eventual aspirations for the police department after her military career.  She kept her skills up by joining the rifle team for ROTC and took up amateur MMA competitions while in college.  Surprisingly her grades left her to graduate at the top of her class despite her actual disinterest in school.  She had her sights and aspirations set on making her father proud in the military.  Unfortunately, when she entered the service there was little promise for her to have a distinguished career in any particular field.  Drone pilot was as close to the action as she could hope to be.  So she went into basic training with a heavy heart but determination boiling in her veins.<br/><br/>Integration was happening slowly in the United States military and an Air Force General wanted to put the theories to the test.  So he set out for volunteers for pararescue from female recruits.  Micah was one of the first to volunteer and enthusiastically joined the curriculum after graduating basic.  Resistance was heavy from her new teammates and she fought hard, literally and figuratively, to find her place among the elite members of the unit.  There were times when she would arrive to formation with bruises to her face while others could not even get out of bad for the punishment she delivered.  Respect was hard fought and eventually earned so that at the end she was the last woman standing and was allowed to take up combat operations.<br/><br/>She excelled at the combat training and the emergency medicine.  Brass balls were said to hang between her legs.  Micah made her father proud and set envy in her brother’s heart as she completed more combat missions behind enemy lines than any other.  Among circles of women she became a crowning achievement and display of what women could do.  She was known as a guardian angel among air men and many welcomed seeing her beautiful face when their planes were downed.  On one such mission was when she discovered that she was also to be counted among the ranks of another elite group, The Evolved.  <br/><br/>A mission gone wrong is a cliché but it was one that she could not avoid on a moonless night.  While her team flew silently in their helicopter in search of a downed pilot the sky came to life with tracers.  The helicopter pilot was killed instantly by a round while the co-pilot was gravely injured and attempting to land the craft.  Micah would not let the mission end there though and she prepared her team for emergency evacuation from the downed craft and then to move their way clear of the area to find safety.  Yet when they emerged the enemy was on top of them.  To this day she is unsure what happened except that a glowing disc of red formed on her arm as the enemy opened fire on her.  She felt exhilarated suddenly as if she could race across the world and tear through any obstacle course.  Micah Brooke assaulted the enemy with a renewed power and vigor that they were unprepared to face.  She single handedly saved her team and managed to rescue the pilot.  <br/><br/>For some there might be a medal, but she knew there was no going back with them.  When the helicopter descended she was not among them.  Originally she was reported as killed in action, but during the debriefing the truth emerged.  Only a few hours head start she pushed into the territory of her enemy, relying on her survival training and ill understood abilities to survive each day.  The jungles of South America allowed her cover while she worked her way home.  A year went by before she made the border crossing back into the United States.  Micah Brooke was tired, hungry and beyond exhausted in all respects.  Yet life would not be done with her.<br/><br/>Age and failing health claimed the life of Micah Brooke the third while she was away.  The day of her return home was also the day of his funeral.  Families from all sides were gathered at her family home to mourn the passing of the man who had never truly mourned her passing.  While the official story had been of her being killed in action during rescue operations, almost all had heard the reports and the news from other service members.  The beloved daughter had turned and become something else, something different and horrible.  Her rebirth came with an icy chill passing over her family and the fainting of at least one sister.  Michael, her young brother, meet her at the door ready for the fight.<br/><br/>There was shouting at first.  Name calling and drudging up of all memories and rivalries came next with standard sibling fighting.  Then the gun fire started.  Michael had grabbed their father’s old service pistol.  From there things got out of hand even further.  The shield was instinctive now and absorbed the shots with terrifying ease.  Micah was on top of her brother from there with the two tearing apart the house.  The fight would end with her victorious in a pyric victory.  Her only true compensation was the possession of her father’s pistol as she fled into the night.<br/><br/>Currently the figure known as Aegis is very much a hunted woman.  She is known publically due to the fame she received as a female combat officer with pararescue.  The military is well acquainted with her and Tac 6 has enlisted her brother into their ranks as he has sworn to bring her to justice.  She lives on the streets mostly now, surviving on random acts of charity and what little of her items she could sell. Typically she remains among the poorer in the community, acting as their guardian angel, their Aegis while she tries to find her place in this world.<br/><br/><br/><br/><strong>Likes:</strong>  Sports (watching and playing), whiskey, hiking and camping, BBQs<br/><strong>Dislikes:</strong>  Cruelty, cowardice, cheap beer<br/><strong>Strengths:</strong>  Emergency medicine, accomplish with a multitude of firearms, trained martial artist and combat veteran<br/><strong>Weaknesses:</strong>  Naive and trusting, known face, on the run, need to intervene<br/><strong>On's &amp; Off's:</strong>  To be blunt, Micah has lead a pretty vanilla love life.  Wildest times would probably be a make out session in the backseat of a car.  She hasn't truly explored what makes her tick in that respect.  She does know there is an attraction to other strong willed women and she likes her men to be aggressive and strong.  Rough sex is certainly something she has enjoyed in the past, but rarely sought out.<br/><br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">Notes</span></strong><br/><br/>- Carries her father's M1911<br/>-Brother is a member of Tac 6<br/><br/><br/><strong><span class="bbc_u">Powers</span></strong><br/></span><ul class="bbc_list"><li><strong> Shield (8):</strong> </li></ul>The red shield that has become her calling card is a construct of her mind for the most part.  A disc that forms on her left arm and is roughly the size of a large shield.  Along the edge of the disc there is an inward curve to grant her protection from nearly everything coming at her.  The shield has thus far proven to be indestructible and well suited to stop munitions and energy weapons from affecting her.  As more items assault the shield the object seems to become more solid and real, drawing in the energy of attacks to power the disc.  From there she can also throw the shield, controlling the flight path with her mind to give it the appearance of ricocheting off enemies and objects.  The shield always comes back to her in the most direct path though.  She can use the shield in hand-to-hand combat as well, the damage done by the shield on her arm and in flight increases depending on the amount of energy absorbed.  She is able to hold and manifest the shield anywhere on her body, often placing it on her back if running away.  To date she has attempted once to use the shield as a “slide” with poor success.<br/><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><strong>Superior Athleticism (10):</strong> </li></ul>Strength, speed and durability have all increased to their human maximums inside her body.<br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><strong>Slowed Aging and Advanced Healing (4):</strong> </li></ul>Micah seems untouched by time as she has remained at the age of her "evolution."   Acquired wounds heal without a scratch in record times, though this healing factor is nowhere near instantaneous and still requires rest and medical treatment.
