				This thread will be your one stop shop for all of the character and MW profiles. Whenever anybody creates a new character, their profile will go here. Easy enough? Okay then, moving on.<br><br><br><strong>Name:</strong> Mira Malrain<br><strong>Age:</strong> 20<br><strong>Sexual Orientation:</strong> Bisexual<br><strong>Appearance:</strong> (http://www.advancedanime.com/pictures/normal_honoka_sakurai.jpg)<br><br><strong>Personality</strong> To call Mira a gear head would be an understatement. She knows more about how MWs work then almost any other pilots, in fact, she is the sole person responsible for the maintenance of her MW, which will be talked more upon later down. She has a deep passion for Mech battling, and often puts a great deal of effort into improving either her MW or her skills at piloting one. Secretly, she carries a bit of an inferiority complex to her older brother, though she'd never show it unless deeply pressed about it.<br><br>Despite her being a rather attractive young woman, Mira was never one for relationships in the pats. She often invested far too much of her time into practicing her piloting skills, or developing new weapons or generating systems for them to be pursued. Even if one were to pull her out of her work, she really doesn't have many hobbies outside of turning a wrench or penciling on a blueprint.<br><br><strong>History:</strong> Mira's father, Mattias Malran, is one of the best mech pilots to ever grace the league, so much so that he was actually inducted into the hall of fame for his consecutive victories and championship wins year after year. When his children came of age, both of them showed an interest in mech battling as well, though the results between the two of them varied greatly. The older of the two,Mattias' son Alister, showed raw potential that surpassed even that of his father. He was an ace in the making, and when enough years passed, he would be a man to fear in the MBF. Mira... on the other hand...<br><br>It seemed that Alister got most of the raw talent, to put it lightly. Mira struggled to hold her own, despite everything she tried, the art of fighting in a machine just didn't come to her anywhere near as smoothly as it did for her brother. She suffered defeat after defeat at the hands of people that her brother easily walked on. It crushed the young woman, who aspired to be just as talented and do just as much justice to her family's name as both of the men of the house. In an attempt to keep up with her father and brother, Mira started to put unbelievable amounts of effort into practicing her skills after school hours, midnight hours burned during the weekends. Not on clubs, parties, or boys, but in the warehouse as she tried desperately to shorten the distance between her and those she aspired to be like. When she got a little older, Mira started to take up engineering as well. She learned how to design, build, and repair MWs all on her own, so that she wouldn't need anybody's help, ever, for anything.<br><br>Even after years of struggling against her own lack of natural talent, Mira is still only slightly above average at best, miles and miles away from the legends that her father was and her brother is on his way to becoming. It crushes her to think about it, and it crushes her even more to be compared to the men of her family from an outsider looking in. She fights by combining what combat experience she has, but is often forced to rely on her deep knowledge about the inner workings and mechanics of MWs in order to pinpoint weaknesses in enemy frames, and holes in defenses. She also finds herself relying heavily on the performance of her machine, which she designed herself to match her needs in combat and make up for her lack of ability as a pilot.<br><br><div align="center"><strong>MW</strong></div><br><strong>Name:</strong> Einenlancer<br><strong>Appearance:</strong> (http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/f91/f91.jpg)<br><br><strong>Standard Weaponry</strong><br>- 2x hip mounted vibro-blades, optional beam coating<br>- 2x back mounted plasma cannons<br>- 1x rear waist mounted carbine rifle, semi automatic, scoped.<br>- 6x side mounted EMP grenades<br>- 2x calf moutned emergency vibro-daggers, no beam option.<br><br><strong>optional weaponry</strong><br>- 1x combat bazooka<br>- 1x heavy flail <br>- 1x rapid fire shotgun<br>- 1x heavy gatling gun<br>- 16x propulsion missiles. Missile pod launcher is mounted to the back and shoulders when in use.<br><br><strong>other systems</strong><br><strong>- Phantom Drive:</strong> Created by Mira as a secret weapon for the Einenlancer. The back mounted plasma cannons let off a rather unusual type of emission that forces such weapons to have external vents. However, Mira designed a 'sink' that took those emissions and stored them within the Einenlancer's hull. When the sink is full, she opens all of the Einenlancer's vents, and the emissions pour out. As a result of these actions, wherever the Einenlancer moves, it leaves an after image in it's wake. Combined with well timed EMP grenades, which disrupt a foe's video channels, this can make the Einenlancer capable of distorting it's opponent's awareness as to where the Lancer is. However, this method of timing takes a great deal of skill and timing to pull off, and skill is one of the things that Mira struggles with.<br><br><strong>- Backup generator:</strong> When the Einenlancer first came in from the manufacturer, it had one big issue that had to be addressed. When Mira overused the plasma weaponry attached to the Einenlancer, the generator overheated and shut down, leaving the MW as nothing more then a giant paperweight. Mira resolved this by installing a secondary generator within the Einenlancer. That way, when the main generator shuts down from plasma overuse, the secondary one kicks on and allows the Einenlancer to continue fighting. However, since the plasma weapons are directly linked to the main generator, she will be without her plasma cannons when put on the secondary generator.<br><br><strong>Construction and History:</strong> Mira designed the Einenlancer from the ground up to be the perfect MW for her, as it played well to all of her strengths, and catered to her weaknesses as well as it could. The Einenlancer is designed to be a predominantly fast, while still packing a great deal of power. Also, Mira designed a number of optional weapons for the lancer so that she could have a weapon for every situation. That way, instead of using skill to overcome a foe, she could just have a weapon sent to her to help her take care of the situation easier. It was her own special way of evening up the playing field, since she had nowhere near the kinds of reflexes and battlefield cunning that many of the best did. <br><br>The Einenlancer is still very much a new machine, as Mira only just got it right before the start of the RP.<br><br><div align="center"><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong>Second Character</strong></span></div><br><strong>Name:</strong> Alister Malrain<br><strong>Age:</strong> 22<br><strong>Sexual Preference:</strong> Straight<br><strong>Appearance:</strong> (http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f310/tears_of_anime/cturescute.jpg)<br><br><strong>Personality:</strong> Alister mostly keeps to himself, not really speaking much unless spoken to. Some in the past have called him emotionally dead, or sometimes being just plain cold for no apparent reason. Even though he carries his father's raw talent, he resents the fact that he keeps getting compared to the man, and often fights in hopes of creating his own name for himself, rather then just being stuck in the shadow of a man who's already made it through his career. Even though he comes off as emotionless, he carries a deep sense of justice in his heart, and is very protective of his little sister, even though he doesn't show it all the time.<br><br>When he fights alone, he is swift, effective, and somewhat ruthless to his opponents. When he fights in a team, he is a lone wolf and never cooperates with those around him, much to the annoyance of his teammates.<br><br><strong>History:</strong> Alister is called a prodigy by many, the second in a family of extremely dangerous pilots who have sealed themselves to carry a legacy within the MBF. His battles are often swift and decisive, though he has found a few opponents that he as deemed as being worthy rivals. Over the years, he watched from the sidelines as his younger sister struggled to keep up with him, and he often felt sorry for her, though he never actually took any action to help her along for reasons that he keeps to himself. Other then that, there really isn't a whole lot to comment on as far as his life went. He lived as normal a live as possible, and tried out for a seat within the MBF as early as he possibly could. Of course, he passed the tryouts with flying colors, and when his first season came to a close, he had made enough money to have his own personalized MW created for him, the MW would later be dubbed 'Zero' and become one of the most feared sights on the MBF battlefield.<br><br><div align="center"><strong>MW</strong></div><br><strong>Name:</strong> Zero<br><br><strong>Appearance:</strong><br><br>Normal mode: (http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/00/gn-007.jpg)<br><br>Fighter mode: (http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/00/gn-007-flight.jpg)<br><br><strong>Standard weaponry</strong><br>1x back mounted vibro blade (only in normal mode)<br>1x wrist mounted double beam rifle, semi auto. (Splits off into 2 parts and becomes main gun for fighter mode)<br>2x head mounted chainguns, full auto (secondary guns in fighter mode)<br><br><strong>Optional weaponry</strong><br>None<br><br><strong>Other Systems</strong><br><strong>-Transformer drive:</strong> Alister's MW is unique in that it's capable of transforming from a combat Mech into a fighter jet. While in jet form, Zero sacrifices stability and firepower in exchange for a massive boost in mobility and speed. Also, since the jet is obviously capable of flight, this adds a whole new level of tactical options to Alister's arsenal.<br><br><strong>Construction and History:</strong> Tragically, in exchange for being able to transform into 2 different modes at will, Alister had to make sacrifices in the weaponry department. All of Zero's weaponry is installed into it's frame from construction, with the exception of the vibroblade, and it can only have a few weapons installed without compromising it's transformation ability. However, that doesn't mean that Zero's harmless, far from it. When in mech form, the double barreled beam rifle is a very powerful carbine, capable of dealing a great amount of damage to those careless enough to underestimate it, and Alister's skill with a vibroblade would be enough to cause an opponent to think twice before driving in with a close quarters assault.<br><br>Alister had Zero custom built after his performance in his MBF debut, and it's served him very well ever since.<br><br><div align="center"><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong>Third Character</strong></span></div><br><strong>Name:</strong> Jillian Ashfeld<br><strong>Age:</strong> 23<br><strong>Sexual Preference:</strong> Lesbian<br><strong>Appearance:</strong> (http://images.ados.fr/bd-manga/photo/hd/3405312340/fille-magicienne/fille-guerriere-1415781f49.jpg)<br><br><strong>Personality:</strong> Brash, somewhat hot tempered, and being completely void of any tact. Jillian never hesitates to speak her mind, and make sure that she's heard for better or for worse. Jillian may come off as being rude without thinking about it sometimes, but underneath her somewhat rough and loud exterior is a heart of gold and, even more secretly, a bit of a helpless romantic. When she isn't partaking in the MBF, she keeps herself busy by taking part in rather small and local boxing leagues, as she once put it 'as long as I'm fighting, I'm happy.'<br><br>Oh, and one last note about Jillian's personality, don't do anything that makes her genuinely mad.<br><br>Seriously... don't.<br><br><strong>History:</strong> Jillian had a rather rough childhood in the slums of your average American city. Crime wasn't nearly as rampant as it was in the larger and more popular cities like LA and New York, but with the economy the way it was where Jillian was forced to call home, a massive crime rate would have simply taken a bad situation and made it worse. Her parents did their absolute best to provide for their only child, but the family was never able to move on to a higher standard of living, as they only just barely made end's meet enough to keep what they already had. Jillian never held that against her parents, she adored them for trying so hard for her sake, so when Jillian turned sixteen, she went out and got a job as quickly as she could in order to help give back to them. While Jillian struggled to hold a serious job due to her unnaturally loud attitude, she found that she had a particular ability to fight, really, really well.<br><br>And so Jillian the boxer was born. While Jillian had always been a bit quick to toss punches in school whenever anybody made fun of her or her family, she had never actually considered taking part in a serious league until her high school gym coach suggested that she give it a shot. As luck would have it, this particular coach was the CEO of a boxing league on the side, and was looking for somebody to be the poster child of his matches. What a happy little coincidence, right? <br><br>From the first minute of the first match in that ring, Jillian knew that she was on to something good. She found fighting in the ring to be an absolutely thrilling experience, despite the fact that she walked out with her head ringing more often then not. And, as she refined her technique to hit both harder and faster, while being hit less often, she found herself to make a considerable bundle of money off of these small leagues. While she was really only pulling in pay that was standard for most people, it was more then she had seen before in her life, so she was delighted by the results. When she tried to help out her parents by giving them the prize winnings, all they did was open an account in her name and put all of the money in there so that she could live a better life then they did. Jillian didn't know about this until she graduated and found herself to be the owner of a sum of money that anybody would be proud to start out their life with.<br><br>Thankful for the sacrifice her parents made, Jillian graciously took the account and left the house to set out on her own.<br><br>5 years have passed since then, and Jillian currently works as a bartender primarily, with both boxing and her newest passion for Mech battling both being side sources of income. Her deepest, darkest secret in the world, and her dream at the same time, is to eventually get famous enough in the MBF that she'll make enough money to go back to her parents and support them, allow them to retire and enjoy the high life that they damn well deserved for the backs they broke just making sure that Jillian would have a future. As a side note, the bar she works at got significantly more popular after she showed up on the big screen last season, for unknown reasons, of course.<br><br><div align="center"><strong>MW</strong></div><br><strong>Name:</strong> Reaver<br><strong>Appearance:</strong> (http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/061/e/5/weltall_id_by_iamrhaza3617-d3ass1v.jpg)<br><br><strong>Standard Weaponry:</strong> <br>1x - Multi platform battle scythe (Beam coating, vibro enabled, and also can be broken down into a chain link sickle)<br>3x - hand held vibroblades, beam coating optional<br>2x - claw lances (shoulder mounted hookshots)<br>1x - multi platform halberd<br><br><strong>Optional weaponry:</strong><br>1x arm mounted mini gatling gun, takes up left arm if installed<br>1x buster plasma cannon<br><br><strong>Other systems:</strong><br><br>- Overdrive: Jillian had the Reaver's generators rigged so that when she activated a certain function, the power output would increase by 150%, giving the Reaver a monstrous boost in performance for a short time before the generator overheats and causes a total system shutdown. Typically, the overdrive activation will indicate that Jillian is on her last legs, using her ace in the hole in one last attempt to turn the tides of the battle in her favor and end it quickly.<br><br><strong>construction and history:</strong> Jillian didn't have much of a choice but to get corporate backing when she wanted a monstrosity like this built. When she realized how much she enjoyed battling in a mech at the age of 19, Jillian started battling in smaller leagues with MWs that were issued to her. As she slowly started to realize that there was serious money to be made by stepping up in the world, at the age of 21 she went to as many corporate companies as she could, trying to find somebody that was willing to pay her way into the MBF. Luckily, she was able to get a few green lights from CEOs that saw a pretty face in a flashy machine as a marketable source, regardless of how well she performed in the actual league. When she was 22, the Reaver was built by corporate funds just for her, and she took the MBF by storm with it.<br><br>To summarize Jillian's fighting style in the Reaver in one sentence: "When all you have is a hammer..."<br><br><div align="center"><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong>Fourth character</strong></span></div><br><strong>Name:</strong> Phantom Warrior (real name unknown)<br><strong>Age:</strong> unknown<br><strong>Sexual orientation:</strong> unknown<br><strong>Appearance:</strong> (http://images.wikia.com/halo/images/b/b3/Halo3ODST.JPG)<br><strong>Personality:</strong> Unknown. Never says anything during battle, never removes his helmet. When fighting the Phantom Warrior, it's almost as though the cockpit of the MW is barren.<br><strong>History:</strong> The Phantom Warrior showed up two seasons ago, though he (generally accepted to be male) hasn't gotten quite so big a fan base as some of the other rising stars had. He could certainly win his matches, but the fact that he never spoke, never showed any signs of actually being a living being, simply served to creep out most of the audience. There are several conspiracies going around about just who the phantom warrior is, some people say he's a millionaire playboy who just wants to have fun, some say he's actually a beautiful woman who doesn't want the media attention that Jillian Ashfeld became a victim of, and some of the more insane theorists even go so far as to say he's actually a robot created by the government to infiltrate the MBF and control the masses, though the last one is generally discarded as completely fictitious. <br><br><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size">MW</span></strong></div><br><strong>Name:</strong> Specter <br><strong>Appearance:</strong> (http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/g-saviour/i-saviour-la.jpg)<br><strong>Standard weapons:</strong><br>- 1x Vibro-Claymore, beam coating optional.<br>- 1x High output beam cannon<br>- 2x battle boomerangs, beam coating enabled<br>- 12x missiles, pod launchers can be found on the top side of the thicker spikes attached to the back.<br>- 6x EMP grenades<br><br><strong>Optional weapons:</strong> <br>- second vibro-claymore, can be attached to create a gargantuan double sided weapon.<br><br><strong>Other systems</strong><br>- Hologram projector. Unlike the Einenlancer's phantom drive, which works off of a sink system and emissions to create an after image of itself. The Specter is able to create up to two holograms, capable of letting off thermal emissions and free movement of their own. When used in areas of low visibility, or in combination with EMPs, this is a very useful and deceptive tool.<br><br><strong>Construction and history:</strong> Much like the pilot himself, Specter's past is shrouded in mystery. When the Phantom Warrior made his debut two seasons ago, the Specter came right along with him. Countless questions asked, no questions answered.

				<strong>Name:</strong> Elizabeth “Railgun” Raines<br><strong>Age:</strong> 24<br><strong>Appearance:</strong> <br><br>(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/3/35/ReiCrop.jpg)<br>(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/f/fc/Katsuko_Kobayakawa.jpg)<br><br><strong>Personality:</strong><br><br>Intelligent and curious, Beth is just as passionate about learning new things as she is about piloting mechs. She is a bit tomboyish at times, though not averse to dressing in a feminine manner. She is easy to get along with, and surprisingly well grounded for a professional athlete. Occasionally she will attend high profile social events or awards shows, but she lives fairly simply and is just as happy to stay in and read or watch holovids on a day off. Most of her outrageously high salary goes to charity and college funds for her siblings’ children.<br><br>While Beth is bisexual, she has never been in a romantic relationship with a man and finds women to be far more physically appealing. Her interests include programming, science, philosophy, and using her celebrity status to raise awareness for various causes.<br><br>Beth was always a cheerful person—and she still tries to be—though since the accident (see below) she has been a bit more subdued.<br><br><strong>Background:</strong><br><br>Beth Raines grew up in a middle class New England household, and was the youngest of four children. She was a very gifted student, skipping two grades and aspiring to someday work in the field of AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) research. Despite spending a lot of time with her intellectual pursuits, she also had an active social life.<br><br>Growing up, Beth had always been interested in mechs and MBF events—though no more so than the average person. Freshman year of high school she went out for the school mech team, but only because she thought it would be fun and look good on her college applications. However, she quickly proved to have uncanny talent—sharp reflexes, cunning tactics, and remarkable accuracy at extreme range. She was captain of the Melrose Mortars for three years (junior year was one of those she skipped), and her town won the State Championship twice in that time.<br><br>After the Mortars came in second place in the national competition her senior year, Beth was offered the chance to join the MBF right out of high school at age sixteen. She was very torn, but her new-found love of being a mech pilot won out—the way Beth figured it, she could go to college anytime, but her reflexes would eventually diminish with age.<br><br>Often called “Railgun” Raines in the media, Beth has had a very successful career and is a fan favorite. She’s known for her supreme accuracy with that weapon, and its considered folly to deliberately engage her at long range. Unfortunately for her opponents, it is also quite difficult to trick her into a close-up ambush. When commentators compile lists of the top ten international players today, her name usually comes up. Because she always stays out of trouble, tabloid writers seem to enjoy making up wild rumors about her—she rarely dignifies them with a response.<br><br>Unfortunately, Beth’s personal life has been marred by one major tragedy. At age nineteen, she married her high school sweetheart Melissa McDermid, a fantasy author who had been a cheerleader for the Mortars. Six months ago, Melissa was killed in a hovercar accident. Beth took half a year off from the MBF, during which she mourned and struggled with severe depression.<br><br>Beth has reluctantly come back to work, hoping that a return to normalcy will help her feel better. She is much more like her old self before the accident now, though there’s still pain beneath the surface.<br><br>---<br><br><strong>MW Name:</strong> Lissa<br><br><strong>Appearance:</strong> The Lissa is less angular in its lines than most mechs, giving it a more organic, humanoid look. Before each match it is painted in camouflage appropriate to the part of the battlefield Beth expects to be fighting in the most—grays for urban ruins, green and brown in a forest, etc.<br><br><strong>Standard Weaponry:</strong><br><br>- 1x Railgun. This long weapon is attached to the right arm. It has no recoil due to magnetically accelerating its large, armor piercing rounds. It normally fires one shot at a time, but it can also fire multiple rounds in rapid bursts in an attempt to defeat projectile countermeasures.<br><br>- 1x Artillery. Long range, high explosives useful in situations where indirect fire is needed. Shoulder mounted. Due to all the room taken up by the railgun ammo, this only has eight shots.<br><br>- 3x Plasma Cannon. Good for medium range and close-up work. Their heat can also ignite fires in certain situations. Torso mounted, two on the front and one on the back that fires behind the Lissa. These weapons have an alternate fire mode that shoots a large number of weak plasma blasts rapidly in random directions—this is a last-ditch missile defense and can also be visually confusing to anyone close-by. <br><br>- 1 x Vibro-Machette. Effective at cutting through armor. Normally hidden within the left arm, but deploys into the hand on command. <br><br><strong>Optional Weaponry:</strong> None.<br><br><strong>Other Systems:</strong> <br><br>- 2 x Jumpjets. Allow for four impressively long jumps per battle. Located on the lower legs.<br><br>- Low Emissions System. This is not so much a single item as a series of design choices that lower emissions and make the Lissa more difficult to detect. The Lissa only has passive sensors in order to make this system work.<br><br>- The Lissa has above average speed, but below average armor as a consequence. Beth relies on her quick reflexes to make this tradeoff beneficial.<br><br><strong>Construction and History:</strong> <br><br>The Lissa is a highly customized machine that Beth ordered and received two years ago. It was named after her wife. The mech was relatively expensive to build, and would not have been possible except for Beth’s preference to live in a modest apartment and stick to the middle-class lifestyle she is accustomed to. Funds from a few key sponsors were also important here, though Beth is scrupulous about only taking money from companies that are relatively ethical.<br><br>When seen in a holovid by spectators, the Lissa has numerous advertising decals that are put there through computer graphics—they do not actually exist on the machine itself.<br><br>While the Lissa is an impressive machine, there are others in the MBF that are even more expensive or have more firepower. What is good about the mech is that it is versatile and stealthy, which perfectly compliments Beth’s style.<br><br><div align="center"><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong>Second Character</strong></span></div><br><strong>Name:</strong> Candice “Candy” Fiedler<br><strong>Age:</strong> 38<br><strong>Appearance:</strong><br>(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/c/cb/EvaH.jpg)<br><br><strong>Personality</strong><br><br>Candice is a true muckraker, delighting in finding scandals and standing in judgment of mech pilots and officials. She is condescending and enjoys baiting her targets. While she’s capable of being&nbsp; charismatic and even refined, her behavior is usually more vulgar and she frequently uses profanity. She cannot stand not getting her way. Candice is preoccupied with her slowly fading looks—while she is still considered attractive and not afraid to use that to her advantage, she knows those days are numbered. She has a love of drinking that borders on alcoholism.<br><br>In recent years, Candice has developed some self-awareness that she once in lacked, in that she can admit to herself that she is kind of an awful bitch who only takes joy in the misery of others. However, she believes she is incapable of change. She has a very distant relationship with her children and guilt over being a lousy mother.<br><br><strong>Background</strong><br><br>Candice is the only child of wealthy German American industrialist Klaus Fiedler, and as a child she lived in perfect luxury and was spoiled rotten. At age 17 she married then famous mech pilot Richard Wilson. A year later she had twins, Karl and Janice. The marriage began going rotten right from the start. Richard was cunning on the battlefield, but unrefined and not terribly bright. Candice frequently mocked him for his stupidity and for mishandling his money. She increasingly had to rely on her father’s money to maintain the extravagant lifestyle she was accustomed to.<br><br>When Richard’s piloting skills began to fade and he started losing most of his matches, he quickly fell into bankruptcy and lost his mech. Candice divorced him and did not even bother pursuing custody of the then eight year old twins—she wanted to go back to the lifestyle of her teen years. Richard soon became an alcoholic relic who hung around fan conventions talking about the glory days. Candice (or perhaps more accurately, her father) was forced to pay for the twins to go to an expensive boarding school because Richard could not provide for them.<br><br>Klaus Fiedler belated realized what a monster he had created in his daughter. He severely cut Candice’s access to his funds and insisted she get a job if she wanted to stay in his will. Candice was furious, but had no choice but to acquiescence. She went to school for journalism, and afterward began her career as a MBF pundit and muckraker. She has been very successful, making a good deal of money. She is watched by a number of fans who like the seamy underside of the sport. Besides appearing on news shows as a talking head, she is known best for the following three recurring segments in her personal holovids:<br><br><strong><em>Ambush!</em></strong> is about what it sounds like—Candice drops in on a pilot or official out of nowhere, and proceeds to ask rude, leading questions and make accusations that may or may not be true.<br><strong><em>Fiedler’s Fuckwits</em></strong> Candice picks out matches where one or more pilots fail embarrassingly and then records a scathing and profane color commentary over it. This segment has killed many a faltering career.<br><strong><em>Candy’s Corner</em></strong> is the closest thing to nice Candice does. Pilots who pay her a lot of money get an interview filled with softball questions where they can whitewash their image or malign detractors.<br><br>As for her personal life, there has been lots of sex and partying for Candice, but no meaningful relationships. Lately she hardly goes to parties or public events at all, partially because she is too tired to keep up and partially because she no longer enjoys them. Karl and Janice are now both in college—Karl is an amateur mech pilot who basically hates his mother’s guts for ‘picking apart dad like a vulture,’ while Janice is a studious young woman and a bit more forgiving.

				Pilot:<br><br>Name: Hashieda Hachi (written in japanese) <br>Age: 20<br><br>Appearance: (http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af74/haroldgx/heihachi.jpg)<br><br>Sexual Preference: Straight<br><br>Personality: A laid back sort of fellow with few cares in the world. He enjoys MW with a passion. well he loves machines in general. He also loves to mess with people a bit. <br><br>History: Hachi was born the son of an average mechanic. He spent his youth learning from his father how to work with machines of varying types. He developed a fondness for big and loud machines but not only that but he also found an attraction to the MW matches. At the age of 12 he took up an official job under his father. In his spare time he began to construct a MW out of parts he snuck out from under his fathers nose. <br><br>He did maintain his job under his father until he was 15. His father an alcoholic went out and in got arrested while under the influence. This forced Hachi to take controll of the business his father had run. Of course having learned everything his father knew about machines and business over the years he was easily able to keep things running smoothely. However in his free time he continued to build the MW that he had started when he was 12. He knew that it wouldn't be like any usual produced machine and would probably have substandard parts but he was prepared to take on the concequences for this.<br><br>Here he was 20 years old and finally the machine he had been working on was complete and he was ready to enter the MW battles. His business was also still thriving and he had decided that he would continue to work as a mechanic between battles.<br><br><br><br>MW:<br><br>Name: Aurius<br><br>Appearance:<br>(http://images.wikia.com/gundam/images/4/42/NZ-333_Alpha_Azieru.jpg)<br><br>Standard weapons:<br>Two shoulder mounted autocannons<br>one mouth mounted beam cannon<br>four missle pods on mounted in the torso<br><br>Optional weapons: None<br><br>Systems:<br><br>Wide Area Analysis- it's built in with a scannner that has a wide area reach.<br><br>Orbital thrusters- despite the implication of the name the two large thrusters built on the bottom of the machine merely serve to enhance it's speed. they are detachable and have detonaters set inside them. they explode when ejected thus creating either a boost for the machine to accelerate off of or explode in the enemies face. <br><br>Special Note: the beam cannon in the machines mouth uses a special battery so it has a limited use of 3-5 shots depending on the size of the battery placed inside.<br><br>Construction and history:<br><br>This machine was built to be fairly large. It has thick armor and it's flight capabilities are actually fairly mobile. For all it's bulk it is quite agile. it isn't exactly designed for close range combat but the rotation of the autocannons covers almost any direction. Hachi not only is a mechanical maniac but he also has a fascination with explosives. that's what the missle pods are for. He wanted something akin to a mobile mini fortress and that's exactly what it is. He doesn't expect to actually win with this monster he's just in it for the fun and excitement. <br><br><br>Name: Illyria<br>Age: 21<br>Sexual preference: Bisexual (surprisingly)<br><br>http://www.gelbooru.com/index.php?page=post&amp;s=view&amp;id=328678 (http://www.gelbooru.com/index.php?page=post&amp;s=view&amp;id=328678)<br><br>Personality: She appears to be completely emotionless well maybe a little snarky at times but mostly emotionless. This however is a lie. She is distrustful of humanity as a whole and thus hides behind an emotionless mask. In reailty she is a vulnerable little girl lost and confused about what truly makes people what they are. she is quite sensitive despite her actions. <br><br>Background: Born the only child of a rich family she was mostly ignored by her parents and spent much of her time either alone or with the nanny that was hired to take care of her. She was privately tutored and thus never made any friends her age. It's actually hard to discern if she even considered the nanny or tutor as friends either.<br><br>Her hobbies included reading, gardening, and watching the MBF. Her parents were sponsors of the MBF and noticed her interest in it. she was 12 years old when they began the cybernetic/genetic enhancing. her skills with machines were astounding her reflexes great and her physical recovery rate incredible. What they didn't realize was that mentally she was beginning to lose faith in humans.&nbsp; certain aspects of the human aging process continued their effects on her but she never grew taller. Never the less she did not care. when the last enhancements were in place when she was 19 she decided she had had enough. <br><br>She killed her parents in their sleep and made it look like suicide. she took control of the company and began to use it's money for the sake of MBF participation She withdrew the company from the sponsors list so that it would not appear as though she were bribing the Federation to allow her to participate and on top of that it would keep her fortune a secret. She decided that the money that was won from the matches would be used for personal matters whilst the companies money would be used for business. she was dividing her finances for the purposes she intended to use them. <br><br>her first season in the MBF was at the age of 19 when her machine was in it's testing phase. and the second season the mech was finally finished. now the third season is beginning.<br><br>Mech Name: Shiro No Tsurugi<br><br>(http://i23.servimg.com/u/f23/12/03/45/77/srw10.jpg) (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=43&amp;u=12034577)<br><br>Armament:<br><br>Knight sword X1<br>Jousting Lance x1<br>clawed hands x2<br>Plasma cannon x 1 (mounted as belt buckle)<br>Grenade launcher x2 (mounted on chest)<br><br>Optional Armament: none<br><br>Systems: Sealed Armor: this mode is a last resort where the machines armor is disengaged allowing for a speed and power boost. this mode is very vulnerable however. this mode takes double the damage do to the speeds it travels at. but that is only IF it gets hit.<br><br>Construction history: This machine was constructed in secret by Illyria from the time she was 15 to the time she was 19 she had been planning on constructing a machine designed to both hit hard and fast. this machine is does just that and when the heavy exterior knight like armor comes off it's abilities double. <br><br><br>Name: Marcus Nielson<br>Age: 25<br><br>Appearance:http://iamundercover.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/hei_dtb.jpg (http://iamundercover.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/hei_dtb.jpg)<br><br><br>Personality: He is a myriad of contradictions. If he likes a person he is kind and gentle to them if he dislikes someone he's harsh and sarcastic and furthermore if he has no opinion of someone he'll quietly observe them until one forms. <br><br>Background: he was born to a middle class family however his father was a drunk and his mother worked often. He spent a lot of time with his friends and their families and learned to hold multiple opinions of the world around him. He got into MW fighting when he was a kid. Then in highschool he participated in minor leagues with a machine he'd gotten loaned to him. after graduating highschool he went and got some sponsors to build him an&nbsp; even better machine. He's returning for his fourth year in the MBF.<br><br>MW: Quadrillias<br><br>Appearance: (http://images.wikia.com/gundam/images/2/2d/Nz-666.jpg)<br><br>Standard weaponry:<br>&nbsp;Plasma Cannons X4 (torso mounted)<br>Vibro Sword X2<br>Re-enforced Gauntlet X2 (the pieces of armor on the wrist)<br><br>Optional weapons:<br>Sniper Rifle X1<br>&nbsp;Missile Launcher X1<br>Machine Gun X1<br><br>Extra Systems:<br><br>Comet Rush: folds the four wings around the body to create a hard shell and pours all the energy into the thrusters to create a high impact blow. if the attack physically misses it emits a partical wave around it that acts as a sort of bomb. it is not powerful enough to penetrate the hull of any machine it can only cause massive hull damage at best. <br><br>Construction history: Designed for high speed and rush battles this machine is built to deal heavy blows at extream speeds but it's strength is severely reduced when at normal speeds without a gun. Cannot weild a gun in the comet mode and further more is exhausted of all power except for that which is needed for a pilot to survive after the comet rush and is thus vulnerable at that point if one can still move after the after shock. <br><br><br>Pilot:<br><br>Name: Karen Marie Lambert<br><br>Age: 22<br><br>Appearance: (http://i23.servimg.com/u/f23/12/03/45/77/houki_10.jpg) (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=47&amp;u=12034577)<br><br>Sexual Preference: Bisexual<br><br>Personality: she can be either relaxed or serious. Her attitude depends on the situation at hand. She likes to drink though and is a rather casual person when drinking. She can also be a bit quippish like a brittish naval officer if the situation deems it neccessary.<br><br>Background: She comes from a military family around Liverpool in Britain.Most of the men in her family were part of the Royal Navy. She spent her younger years watching the MBF, Hanging out with friends, studying for exams. She was very into the MBF much like many her age she participated in the highschool leagues and was a rather skilled pilot though her name was nowhere near as well known as Mira Marlain. She had intentions of Joining the Royal Navy just like her father however Her mother Insisted she at least attend vocation school first. After agreeing to attend vocational school she picked up the intention to compete someday in the MBF's Major Leagues just for the sake of meeting some of the big name pilots. She picked up Physics and Mechanical Engineering while at a vocational school shortly after exiting highschool and soon began developing experimental weapons that would work for MW's.<br><br>Mech:<br><br>Name: Grandveil<br><br>Appearance:<br>(http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m277/Shinn_Asuka03/HuckebeinMK3.jpg)<br><br>Weaponry: <br>machine gun x1<br>vibro sword x2<br>shot gun x1<br><br>Optional Weapons:<br>Sphere rifle (experimental weapon) <br>Sniper Rifle<br>Gatling Gun<br>Rocket Launcher<br>Vibro Axe<br><br>Extra System: Gravity well- a system that alters the gravity around the machine it can either increase or decrease gravity but has a fail safe that shuts off once the preassure hits a level that would too much for humans. <br><br><br>Developemental background: Grandveil was designed with many experimental parts and systems as well as weapons. It isn't entirely stable at times but has enough stability to qualify. this machine was built on funding from several organizations and is mostly a prototype machine. The sphere gun is a specially modified Grenade launcher than launches gravity grenades.

				<strong>Name:</strong> Montresor (registered name; universally believed to be a stage name of some sort)<br><strong>Age:</strong> 25<br><strong>Sexual Orientation:</strong> Rumored to be bi, but no one seems to look for evidence either way when there's more interesting scandals in his fighting life.<br><strong>Appearance:</strong> (http://i592.photobucket.com/albums/tt7/Sara_Shadow/Fantasy/BlondeAnimeBoy-1.jpg)<br><br>(Without the claws, obviously. Wears this (http://static.fancydress.com/resources/ecommerce/images/products/953/img953/product-enlarged.jpg) whenever he's in or around an MBF fight.)<br><br><strong>Personality:</strong> In the ring, Montresor does everything he can to be a showman. He constantly taunts his foes and tries to draw them into taking risks that will be sure to entertain, even though he makes himself lose sometimes. He generally tries to drag every fight out as long as possible, only stopping when either he or his opponent has completely run out of energy. Occasionally, he'll back off and even hold his team (when he's on a team) back if he feels he's crippled an enemy out of sheer luck, giving them time to recover.<br><br>Outside of the ring, whatever little time he spends around the other pilots, he acts fairly polite to most, but gets violently enraged if anyone insults him or suggest that he's playing outside the rules (an accusation that will be discussed later). Twice he's hospitalized another pilot, and on one of those occasions had to get admitted himself. You don't often see him around his competitors and teammates, though; he usually collects his winnings immediately after the fight, then changes and leaves out the spectator entrance to avoid the usual post-fight interviews.<br><br>All in all, it's difficult to say how deep this nutjob persona of his goes; whether it's just an act he puts on to draw a crowd, or if he really is unhinged.<br><br><strong>History:</strong> Very little. Montresor entered the league three years ago, funded by an anonymous sponser. His Mobilized Weapon was already fully outfitted and he was more or less fully trained. He immediately jumped into the big matches, sometimes making a guest appearances on various teams that were short one member, but generally sticking to the one-on-one and occasionally two-on-two battles. Very little has changed since that time, except for slight rises and dips in his skill based around whether he was on a winning streak or losing streak during those times.<br><br>Of course, as he got popular to be recognized by a good chunk of the population when brought up by name, the media started researching and publishing poorly-founded rumors regarding his sponsors and his erratic win-loss patterns. Soon enough, everyone believed Montresor was funded by one of the mafias, and that he was purposely winning and losing certain matches so that his bosses could make big money by placing bets on a predetermined outcome. When the Federation looked into this, they found no evidence that he was rigging or intentionally throwing any matches, so he hasn't been banned from the league just yet.<br><br>A few rumors also refer to a violet-haired woman (http://www.animecharactersdatabase.com:81/images/aprofile/Miku_Ono.jpg) who is often seen around his garage when his mech is getting repaired, though no one has been able to get close enough to question her yet.<br><br><div align="center"><strong>MW</strong><br></div><strong>Name:</strong> Terror Grand<br><strong>Appearance:</strong> (http://www.mahq.net/mecha/eureka7/eureka7-tv/theend.jpg)<br><br><strong>Standard Weaponry</strong><br>-Two sets of three claws that flip out into attack position rather than extend and retract. Can be either coated with plasma or charged with electricity.<br>-Beam emitters on both palms that shoot small energy rings. <br><br><strong>Optional Weaponry</strong><br>-Dispenser unit, on back. Can either be loaded with mines (20 max), flammable gel, or a smokescreen. Montresor usually doesn't bother, though.<br><br><strong>Other Systems</strong><br>-Lock-resistant armor coating. Makes it slightly easier for him to throw off the detection system for a weapon lock by moving around.<br><br><strong>Construction and History:</strong> Again, there is little public knowledge on the matter. Montresor simply showed up to register with the unit already on hand and has done very little to modify or upgrade it since. It may not have even been made specifically for his use, though skilled pilots may recognize that the machine does seem to fit his style quite well with its speed and oddball design.<br><br><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size">Second Character</span></strong></div><br><strong>Name:</strong> Jessica Redhart (only answers to "Jess")<br><strong>Age:</strong> 24<br><strong>Sexual Orientation:</strong> Heterosexual (apparently)<br><strong>Appearance:</strong> (http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd157/outofthebluerandomluv/Anime%20Girls/sachienormal_green_eyes.jpg)<br><br><strong>Personality:</strong> Sometimes loud, sometimes commanding, sometimes boisterous, sometimes maybe even aggressive, Jess is ready to take control of any situation she's put in and kick the ass of anyone who tries to pull her down. To most, she can seem a bit bossy and too intrusive at times, but she genuinely believes she knows what's best for people and will put herself on the line time and time again to help out her friends. Jess is an extremely loyal ally, but has no problem telling people when they act like idiots, as it's usually for their own good.<br><br>She may be a bit softer towards those she really cares for, but, because of her behavior, she doesn't make many friends or get many dates among her workspace.<br><br><strong>History:</strong> Jess was born to a businessman and a policewoman in the state of Washington, the oldest of three children. Her mother died in the line of duty when she was fifteen, but life went on and she led a normal existence without too much tragedy up until she went to business college straight out of high school. She graduated with a bachelor's within two and a half years and was immediately offered a job by her uncle, who happened to be on the board of directors of the Mech Battling Federation.<br><br>That's not to say Jess didn't deserve the position, however. She was the top of the class when she earned her degree and, despite being given a fairly mid-level position by her uncle who didn't want to seem like a favoritist, she worked her way up to the executive level within just a couple short years. Though her department was just Pilot Registration and Statistics, she was often found imposing herself on other departments and giving her say on their business, which often ended up being for the better. Thanks to both the good results of her efforts and maybe to her connections, she was praised for such "initiative" instead of scolded.<br><br>Because of the department she now leads, Jess is among the first to get to learn about new pilots coming in and is often seen picking out those with the most potential and taking them under her wing, though this doesn't always work for the best. Still, even when a longtime friend decides they no longer need her and abandons her, she remains strong and keeps trying to help the newcomers reach their dreams.<br><br><div align="center"><strong>MW</strong></div><br>Jess is not an actual pilot in the Federation, so she does not own a Mobile Weapon. However, it's said that she's rather good at fighting outside of one.<br><br><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt;" class="bbc_size">Third Character</span></strong></div><br><strong>Name:</strong> Moon Park<br><strong>Age:</strong> 20<br><strong>Sexual Orientation:</strong> Heterosexual<br><strong>Appearance:</strong> (http://cdn.pimpmyspace.org/media/pms/c/1i/in/nm/jacques.png)<br><br><strong>Personality:</strong> Moon isn't like your average male jock sports star. He is actually a rather quiet, gentle, and caring individual, rarely showing a competitive spirit. Despite the mocking he constantly receives for his terrible repair technique and abysmal win-loss ratio from the previous season, he never shows hostility. In fact, some consider him <em>too</em> soft and believe he would perform much better if he were a bit rougher and less cautious.<br><br><strong>History:</strong> Moon comes from a large West Korean family at the bottom of the middle-class, the third-oldest of five brothers. Not wanting to be a burden to his family, Moon travelled to America after finishing high school in order to pursue a career in psychology. His dream was to attend Stanford, but neither he nor his family had nearly enough money to pay for the tuition. Determined to live out his dream, he began looking for ways to save up the money needed.<br><br>Of course, one of the ideas that came to his mind was joining a Mobile Weapon battling league, as he was a bit of an ace in the rickety little mechs his high school back home used, but he didn't have nearly enough to afford building a machine. However, luck came his way when he came to earn a part-time job at the restaurant of former MBF star Alberto Alvarez, a retired pilot who made quite a name for himself battling on teams, even with the likes of Mattias Malrain. Moon became good friends with his new boss and confided in him some of his dreams, which led to Alberto watching recording of some of Moon's old mech battle back home. <br><br>Liking what he saw, the retired pilot decided to give Park his old mech from his sports days and suggested the young man take a shot at the MBF (which was opening a new season soon) in order to make the money he needed to get into the college. With his blessing and even a personal letter of recommendation, Moon painted, reoutfitted, and renamed the old mech with what little cash he had and entered the league.<br><br>Unfortunately, the dream didn't work out exactly as planned. While he managed to get into the Federation with some luck, his first season was a disaster and, without a sponsor, Moon could barely make enough to live off of. As he couldn't afford a team of mechanics, it was always left to him and a few of his friends from the restaurant to do repair work on his mech. But since he knew next to nothing about mechanics, his repairs were often shoddy and led to him losing more matches, which, in turn, meant he had to waste more money on buying new parts. Now, moving into the second season, some question whether or not he even has a chance of making it in.<br><br><div align="center"><strong>MW</strong></div><strong>Name:</strong> Big Al<br><strong>Appearance:</strong> (http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/endlesswaltz/xxxg-01h2.jpg)<br><br><strong>Standard Weaponry</strong> <br>-Dual minigun gauntlet.

				<strong>Appearance:</strong><br><div class="floatleft">(http://th62.photobucket.com/albums/h97/Fair_One_Of_The_Last_Dusk/Male%20Anime/th_pilot-1.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong> Jareth Herman<br><strong>Age:</strong> 22<br><strong>Sexual Orientation:</strong> Straight<br><strong>Personality:</strong> Confident, Bravado, Hot Tempered, Flirter (female fans love it)<br><strong>History:</strong> Jareth Herman is a son of antique museum owner, a war museum more exact. In family history there is long line of generals and war heroes until the lasting peace was formed. A former general who spoke for peace opened museum to remind people about bloody history of the warfare in cold plain facts but with some fancy tales to remember heroes from past.<br><br>His family genetic roots are in german but his family had moved to united states long before the peace but they have proud german roots. His father was usual dusty museum keeper who had studied only history and done bit archeology. Jareth himself always was raised with war tales and history and he kind of missed times for glory. The MBF games are his favorite shows to watch. He studied engineering and computer programming, not to become mech pilot but to become builder or repairman for mechs. Also his whole life he cleaned and repaired war machinery in museum, as some models were kept active and repaired so they can perform in shows to show their destructive power for audience.<br><br>But then things changed; some business company had heard just rumors that his father had in secret storage the first and original produced Mech but it was not just any mech; when war was ending many nations feared might of mechs. So one german warfactory produced one prototype which is known as <em>anti-Mech</em> unit. With high customable frame for many varied weapons and made from top german metallurgy and engineering to be toughest of all mechs. As it was mech model designed for heavy front line figthing with long lasting batteries and activity time.<br><br>Father said he had never heard of such said mech but companies still kept begging him to tell and sell it. As with modifications said mech would become unstoppable force in battle. But father was old school raised; like his predecessors he despised warfare and even MBF games caused him turn sick for people <em>glorifying warfare</em> where they should not. But eventually one the companies, Jareth is not sure which, made move. They kidnapped his father and his family, they started blackmail father reveal location of the mech but he refused. The gangsters killed mother in front of Jareth's and father's eyes and gun was pointed towards Jareth now!<br><br>Only then father broke and said he will lead them there, Jareth and father were led to secret warehouse in former american military base. Inside in sealed garage doors was finished mech! With numerous spare parts, weaponry and gadgets for real warfare! While gangsters hired by company inspected mech, father succeed grab gun from one of them and start wild fire fight in museum! trying buy Jareth time to escape! But entrance was blocked so only escape was....enter the mech. He entered mech and he sheer improvisation activated it and he used worn and old used mech to kill the gangsters but not before gangsters had killed his father in gun fight!<br><br>Jareth, bitterned by the loss of his family just for sake of business greed for damn MBF games he decided enter road to become mech pilot. Not for not money, not prove being best nor for fame or glory. Just plain enter the games to show a true brutality of the fights and teach people respect lives with doing example. Because of his devotion he refuses any sponsors (as company was origin cause for death of his parents) and he refuses use his win money to buy new mech or weapons. It's more a sake of pride why he does not do it plus his father died for revealing this mech. As the old mech kind of reminds about his proud father. But because he uses ancient mech it is not customizable with most modern weapon systems nor upgrades. But it has one advantage over all other mechs; it has full military implemented combat sensors, computers and it's build very beginning to be tough and especially effective mech vs mech fight. He spends most winning money on repairs, ammunition or his own inventions which convert old war weapons and gadgets for mech's own use. He's the Macgyver of mech invention with junk.<br><br>Because of limitations of weapons Jareth is forced to only fight foes in medium or close range. In close range the anti-mech reveals it's true power; it's unarmed mech fists hold a powerful energy generator which causes fists cause critical damage to any mech which gets pummeled by Jareth's mech. So Jareth's main strategy is same as with boar; charge headlong with enemies and ram them up with powerful close range attacks and endure whatever enemy throws at him. That's why he named mech as Eberhart. Which is german for 'strong as boar'. But he knows he cannot always trust to bold charge but he uses varied clever tricks to set up the chance to perform his ultimate attack. There the numerous gadgets and weapons come in. He is able gear up and adjust his mech with any weapons from both from secret military base (where he can repair his mech) and from museum.<br><br><br><br><br><br><span class="bbc_u"><strong>MW</strong></span><br><br><strong>Name:</strong> Eberhart Mark I<br><strong>Appearance (note; twice as larger than any present mecha's both size and mass):</strong><br><div class="floatleft">(http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h52/Ablindmanwithastick/fm4-wanzer-zenith.jpg)</div><br><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Standard Weapons</strong></span><br>-Anti-Mech Hammer Punch = Super critical damage on hit on mech units. It uses mix of raw force, sonic wave transmitter and EPM shock. <br>-Baratte K12 Assault Rifle = A outdated but very good military mech assault rifle. It has option for incinerate ammunition, armor penetration or plain powerful lead burst.<br><br><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Optional Weaponry</strong></span><br>Besides ammunition for the assault rifle mech has following upgrades possible (2 slots);<br>-Shoulder heat tracing rocket launchers (1-2)<br>-Close range sonar cannon (attached to head section)= It allows make single sonic cone attack which does not harm mechs but their drivers instead. The noise penetrates any sound protection gear what driver may have if it is not in-build feature of the mech resist sonic attacks.<br>-Flame thrower = Not use most mechs but often Jareth implements it in to use tactically (often use it to create smoke screen between him and foe). Also flames stick on enemy target so it's easier locate.<br>-Electric trip wire = does not cause heavy damage but it's only weapon with long range available to Eberhart Mark I. It is meant to disable mobility of enemy mechs and electricity is meant to hinder energy flow on legs than cause harm.<br>-Grenade Launcher = It's attached to shoulder and it is capable for launching short range grenades which vary from EMP, Napalm and Shrapnel.<br>-Anti-missile turret = It's weapon only designed to destroy any missiles before they reach and hit the mech.<br><br><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Other Systems</strong></span><br>-Super Blast resistant plating = In reduction in general mobility and increase of weight the mech has several extra layers of steel, aftershock impact structure and also surface plating is treated with anti-plasma steel. Reduce any incoming plasma damage.<br>-Several sensors, able function in both bright light, night time or during when video image is not available (makes aiming weapons harder but he can locate foes exact location with sonar radar).<br>-Charge turbo thrusters = Altough mostly slow compared to more slender mechs, with turbo thrusters he can close incredibly fast from medium range to close range with his foe. But he can do it max two times.<br>-War resistance = In general Eberhart Mark I is resistant to most forms of anti-mech attacks. Protect drivers from sonar attacks. Resists impact from EPM (not necessary direct hit but this resistance is meant also protect from EPM released from powerful punch attack mech has). Also because of it's unique energy core and computer system it's not easy to hack as it's not attached on any network like most mech systems are.

				<br>Name: Ysena Mors<br><br>Age: 19<br><br>Sexual Orientation: Bi-Curious<br><br>Appearance:(http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HWU3wX2cDLQ/SLoshnvcuuI/AAAAAAAAC_Y/lrvYdsVmRQo/s400/anime_girl_ready_for_bed.jpg)<br><br>Personality: Ysena is a avid animal lover, having many stuffed animals as she is not allowed to keep any in her place of residence. She is generally cheerful regardless of her Illness. She tries to do right by people and would prefer them to do right by her, although she has small quirks, she is generally the type of girl to be lost in the crowd with few things to really make her stand out. She takes part in mech battles so she can keep paying for her medication, which is usually very expensive. Because of that she takes her battles seriously because her health is on the line.<br><br>History: Ysena has always been a sickly child, a rare genetic disorder called Plasmosis, a disorder that results in the plasma in her blood stream either being too thick or to few, resulting in her being bedridden for most of her childhood until a medication could be created to help keep her plasma levels at safe levels. This allowed for her to make up for some lost time and join the local school's and make a few friends. <br><br>However the medication was expensive, and her parents struggled to keep up with the payments, so Ysena began to relapse into her bedridden phases as her medication became even more scarce. But one day, she saw the flyer about the mech league, knowing her uncle used to own a special design mech pilot, she went to him, and asked him to give her some training in the mechs, and to redesign his mech back into a standard suitable for her. <br><br>Now Ysena is taking part in the League. Hoping to pay off all of her medical expenses so her illness&nbsp; doesn't destroy three lives. Giving it her all in her new custom mech, and a determination that will take her far.<br><br>Mech: Dark Lynx<br>(http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u36/vermt001/lightning_saix.jpg)<br><br><br>Standard Weaponry :<br>2x howling cannons: These cannon's are average offensive tools of their brand, however they fire at a unique trajectory that causes a loud screeching on their desent. (becomes shoulder mounted in humanoid form)<br>4x Mangler claws: Each of the Dark Lynx's claws is designed to have a electrical charge going through them when activated, this force allows them to scythe into the opponents mechs much easier than if it was just metal on metal. (unusable in humanoid form)<br>Lightning arc: A mouth weapon that fires several powerful electrical charges that causes streaks of lightning to arc between them, usually in a trajectory towards the opponent. (usable in humanoid form as a arm weapon)<br><br>Other equipment:<br>Phantasm engine: A special engine used by scouts, conserving significant energy from the mech to allow it to run almost at room temeprature, allowing it to avoid most heat based sensors (radar) this stored energy is used to power the lightning arc and the mangler claws.<br>Special traits: Humanoid form:<br>The dark Lynx is able to alter itself into a humanoid version of itself, standing at the height of usual mechs of its grade, becoming a more long distant combatant with the shreiking cannons and the lightning arc.<br><br>Low profile: The Dark Lynx when in animal form has a low profile that is roughly half of the usual mechs, this allows it to remain hidden easier, particularly in dark envioments thanks to its darker colouring.<br><br>Tight turning: The Dark lynx when in animal form allows for increased stability and speed at the cost of close quarters turning capability having to take a wider arc to turn and is unable to turn on the spot.

				Name: Arrow Sanders<br>Age: 27<br>Sexual Orientation: Straight<br>Appearance: <br>(http://images.wikia.com/zoids/images/8/80/ZVS3_ARROW.gif)<br><br>Personality: The typical quiet loner type and is always reading some type of romance or adult love story. Something he seems to be a sucker for. He seems to be in deep thought all the time, but is amazingly in tune with his surrounds. Meaning he is hard to surprise. He also seems to never smile, but will talk if talked too. He is nice, kind, and courteous to those who treat him the same way. He never holds back in a battle.<br><br>History: He has no record with the MBF, so he is a newcomer with a clean slate and no reputation. No one knows how he got the Gigas Rex, but Arrow says his father started building it and he helped to finish it.<br><br>He was pretty fun-loving child growing up. He and his family always took trips and so he got to see places growing up. As fascinated as he was with the worlds sights, machines was where his interests lie. He had a good childhood. His father is still alive, but his mother died a few years back in a fire.<br>MW<br><br>Name: Gigas Rex<br>Appearance: <br>(http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/HikarutheArcticFox/RPCs/dp.jpg)<br><br>Standard Weaponry<br>Crusher Tail<br>Giga Crusher Fangs <br>Hyper Press Manipulators<br>Long Range Buster Cannons-Eagle<br>Tail Blade Swipe <br><br>Other Systems<br>32 Shot Core Cannon: A last resort move. The Gigas locks itself to the ground with the support anchors on its legs and energy is drained directly from the Core life unit and channeled out through the spines on the back, shooting upwards before arcing down and out to rain down on anything in the immediate area. Firing this weapon puts immense strain on the Gigas Core, and as such this weapon can only be used as a weapon of last resort.<br><br>Equipment<br>"Ancient Titanium" Armor <br>Electronics Counter-Measure (ECM)<br>Hyper Energy Shield <br>Leg Support Anchors<br><br>Modes<br>Battle mode, the Gigas rears back on its tail and hind legs, in an upright, Godzilla-like stance. In this position, the Gigas is able to most effectively able to use its claws, teeth, and tail in close combat. <br><br>Pursuit mode, the Gigas’s body is positioned so that the head, body, and tail are in line, allowing it to move at almost twice the speed of battle mode.<br>
