I hope you're all doing well and enjoying the game so far?<br/><br/>I just wanted to ask if anyone here wants to have a character that has at least a somewhat better bond with Damian? I'd still say it would be a stretch to call it a friendship, but while he is either indifferent or almost hostile with the others, he would be far more respectful and almost (note: almost) amicable towards this individual. Just one will do, so if anyone has any suggestions?<br/><br/>I've also ran his history with the company by lady Kayla so I'll stipulate it if it helps jar some ideas loose. Damian joined the Black Sun seven years prior to present day, serving under the then-commander and Kari's father after having been a mercenary for three years elsewhere. He eventually became tactical adviser in Kari's father's company and was part of the battle that nearly wiped the whole mercenary company out, being one of the few survivors. Charybdis had barely survived, but was in severe disrepair for many months, with it taking over a year before it was fully operational again, and back to what Damian was used to. After this time, he stayed with the Black Sun and began to serve as Kari's tactical adviser and he also runs the numbers like a true Sea Fox would. I believe, for now, this makes him the eldest, living, PC member other than Kari, so any other veterans will have been working with him for quite some time now; making them more eligible for being on better terms than newer members.<br/><br/>Food for thought.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Everett doesn't have any particular biases against Clansmen, but whether Damien likes him or not would probably depend on how much of the traditional Clan disdain for infantry he carries with him; Everett was an infantry/battle-armor gladiator and soldier before he became a Mechwarrior, and talks about it from time to time.<br/><br/>If there's anyone Everett just plain dislikes, it's probably Angeline - not so much for who she is personally as what she represents. Mech fights get all the top billing on Solaris, all the advertisements, all the endorsements. Scrapper fights are the filler and C-card matches, the Little League to the Mech's MBA, despite infantry fights having a far higher fatality rate and lower payouts. So he'd have a fair bit of professional resentment for the entire class she's a (literal) poster child for, clashing head-on and rather guiltily with awareness of how attractive she is.
