Name: Thomas Erhart
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Nationality: German
Appearance:

Thomas has a rather athletic build and measures about 1.79m.
Personality:
Thomas is a confident person who knows what he is capable of and what he isn't, and then thinks he can do a little better than that. He is open and friendly, even though slightly unlikeable due to his overconfidenct arrogance. That aside he has an idealistic mindset but a really realistic way of looking at things, which at times creates conlifct within the privacy of his own skull, nevermind amongst those around him. He also has a bit of a macho attitude, and has the need to stand in the limelight and make his presence known. He does have a softer side though, but that is one he doesn't show all that often. Deep down somewhere he is very protective over those he cares about.
Backstory:
Thomas was born as the son of a common working class man, Wilhelm Erhart. He was the eldest of six, four boys and two girls who all grew up together as a thightly-knit band of youthlings. Their parents had little time for them because of work, so they could sustain themselves, so most of the time the children were on their own, patrolling the streets for a coin to earn or fun to be had. They formed their own little gang. Thomas, being the eldest, often functioned as leader, and his stubborn arrogance backed up by the eagerness of his siblings to back that up often got them intop trouble with other groups of kids. Street fights were a rather frequent occurence, without many repercussions for either side, due to their age and their battle-born rivarlous friendship. It was a good time to be young, and as they grew, so did their bond together. They all stood up for eachother if something happened, no matter the odds, and hurting even one of the siblings would result in an action of vengeance soon enough. Yes, they were quite a terror, but a good-natured one. Larger criminal gangs noticed this, and tried to harness the group for their purposes, without any succes due to Thomas' leadership, but that was also where the trouble began.

Peter, the second eldest brother of the group, was easily influenced into secretly aiding the criminal gangs, and got them all into trouble. At first things went unnoticed, but one day, everything changed. Military Police knocked at their door and confiscated forbidden goods, creating a large fine for their parents, which they could never pay in their collective lifetimes. Quickly it was discovered that Peter had been the cause of it, who tried to work with the criminals to earn enough money to help their parents, which worked. In the short term. The criminal gang helped sustain their parents' position, and life seemed to become normal again.

Thomas had in the meantime joined the military and was in the second year of his training when disaster struck. He received the news that Ralph, the youngest of the children, had been found with his throat slit. Byt the time he had deserted and arrived back home, the situation seemed stable. His entire family seemed to act as if Ralph had never existed, but he could tell from their faces that fear reigned over them. And he soon found out why. A gang war had broken out, and Peter's gang had been annihalated a few days ago. Now he was being pressured into joining the new one, his sibling's lives being held in the hands of the gang. Thomas, being the incorrigable person he was, stood up to help his siblings however, no matter their mistakes, and led a retaliation effort against the gang, using his newly aqcuired skills to murder the head of the criminal syndicate. The price had been high however. Eline had been murdered and Elliot maimed, who and died to his injuries not much later. Despite that, they achieved great succes; the criminal gang had been dispersed with their aid, and collectively hung by the Military Police, but he found himself trialed with murder by the same police, and he was offered a few choices. All of them resulted in the strong bond of friendship amongst the siblings to fragmentate. It seemed like it was a lost world, but eventually, he moved on.

He chose to return to the military, and would never forget how Peter's selfish decisions caused the death of half of the siblings and the crippling of one of them.
Other:
He has an absolute hate of bullies, and will bully them into submission.
He is really protective over those he cares about, and will go as far as to desert the military and murder gang leaders to save those he deems worth of saving.

Name:
Terry Yates

Gender:
Female

Age:
16

Nationality:
Canadian

Appearance:
At first sight Terry looks like a scrawny boy. Her short chestnut colored hair goes a few millimeters below the tops of her ears and her bangs stop right above her eyes and are parted to the right in one swift wave. Her small, scrawny form lacks in the typical aspects associated with females. Her pale skin has a few old scars and bruises from a mishap. Her eyes are light blue, almost white. She often wears a white dress shirt with her uniform and a pair of goggles which hang around her neck when not in use.

District:
Stohess

Personality:
Friendly and cheerful, Terry is kind to even to the nastiest of people. She doesn’t do this out of joy but rather habit. Well that might not be totally true. The girl may not completely enjoy the conversation but she does like learning about people, and people open up when they trust you. Granted if she has to, she’ll turn to other sources to get information. Despite this odd hobby the girl doesn’t have any hidden agendas or personal goals, in fact it’s just about the opposite. The girl likes to take the safe neutral path of not harming anyone who doesn’t hurt her or those she cares about. This standpoint carries down to her own view of the world as well. She doesn’t believe in good or evil, right or wrong, or anything along those lines. She simply sees two sides with pros and cons. This tends to lead her to be indecisive and not much help in arguments unless the pros of one heavily outweigh the cons. Make no mistake though, Terry does have things she will fight for and borders she thinks no humans should cross.

Backstory:
Despite being born in the wealthy Stohess District, Terry wasn’t very rich at all. She was born to two servants of a wealthy noble who barely cared for his workers. Everything wasn’t terrible though. The girl’s parent’s cared for her deeply and the other servants were kind enough to take care of her as well. Growing up there wasn’t so bad, she didn’t have to do as much work as the adults and was allowed to go out and play when she was done with everything. Even as she grew older she was favored by the nobleman who employed her parents, who found her little hobby useful when negotiating with other nobles. What got to the girl was having to watch as her parents and the other employees work so hard with so little reward. Each day she would sit down in the servant’s quarter’s kitchen and watch as each of the staff members slinked inside utterly exhausted and joined in on eating the small portions provided by the greedy noble. Seeing such hard working people be treated so terribly slowly drove her over the edge, and so eventually just snapped.

Terry was fourteen when she wrote three notes and moved on with her life. The first was a goodbye letter to her parents. The second was a threat to the noble, telling him that if he didn’t improve the conditions of the servants, his wife would find out about the little affair he’d been having. The third was a list of blackmail the stable boy could use against the nobleman for future reference. After that she simply packed up her bags and left before the nobleman could punish her for her actions.

Once she left, the girl wasn’t quite sure what to do with her life. She wanted to do something; no one wants to die with nothing accomplished, but she didn’t know how to go about this. She didn’t have much money, and almost no useful training. So in the end she just wandered about doing some odd jobs here and there. She learned about all kinds of different people and found different viewpoints, of which all interested her. Eventually, as is destined for all travelers, she came across trouble.

Being unable to afford a room for the night the girl had settled for sleeping in a nearby alley, something she’d gotten used to doing when she first arrived in a new place. During the night a group of teens had decided to make prey on her. They beat her up for their own twisted amusement and would’ve done worse had someone not intervened. Thankfully, someone had. A middle aged man had ran up waving a fireplace poker like a club and shouting incomprehensible things like a mad man, which was apparently enough to drive them away. After that he’d taken Terry home with him and offered her a place to stay for a while. The two had slowly grown close and after getting to know Terry and her goals, the man had suggested she join the training corps and make a name for herself in the legion.

Figuring it’d be a better idea than wandering forever, Terry agreed with the veteran’s proposal.

Other:
Terry keeps a journal with the information she finds out about people. She writes it in a made up language so others can't read it and when people ask what she’s writing about she likes to say it’s a story about a lost world.
