[b]Personality:[/b] Given life’s circumstances, Rayland had to live up to high expectations for some time, regardless of self-interests that he wished were in-play beforehand. This has created a lasting mental impact as Rayland religiously strives for each job to be done efficiently, even if the stressful tasks of said job prove to be an irritable annoyance which sometimes leads Rayland into witty or sarcastic mood on the subject. Though grumpy at times he does however show much care and concern for his crew mates aboard the [i]Infamous Alto[/i]; a trait he quickly learned as a AISC.  

[b]Enhancements:[/b] As a former AISC, Rayland is genetically enhanced to endure tough punishment and to survive in extreme temperatures. Additional he has also been modified with cybernetics to absorb the shock from falls at high elevations and to communicate with allies via a implanted Cyber Link. He also owns a ship called the Infamous Alto.

[b]Skills:[/b] Aside from his combat skills learned during his time in the military, Rayland is also a moderately adept Psionic user. Though his abilities are not exactly the flashiest, he is able to lift objects or people with his knowledge of telekinesis 

[b]Equipment:[/b] A modified AISC-type NVP Suit, holo interface wrist projector, and a tactical Gyrojet Sub-Repeater

[b]Bio:[/b] Rayland has been with the ATC and the Galactic Coalition military what almost seems like an entire century combined between the two groups. It doesn't help of course that his entire family had a strong military tradition and he would be expected to follow suit. Though clearly not his first choice, Rayland reluctantly joined up. For awhile, he served as an AISC (Atmosphere Insertion Shock Commando) or Jump Trooper as it’s commonly called; a special forces soldier whom jumps out of a perfectly good shuttle and into a planet’s exosphere, wearing only the special type of armor and shielding to survive atmospheric re-entry before landing on the surface and causing absolute mayhem.

Unfortunately during one fateful mission, Rayland was severely injured due to flak shrapnel that tore into his powered armor. Though he was able to survive, the damage could never completely heal; since atmospheric re-entry applies so much g-forces on one’s body, it was feared that gravitational stress would re-open his wounds and cause further damage. With that said, Rayland was discharged from the corps for medical concerns. 

Sometime later, Rayland got on-board with the transporter business of delivering goods and supplies to both corporate and military contractors. This eventually led into the rather costly purchase of a decommissioned frigate-turned-transport vessel named the [i]Infamous Alto[/i], a now fast and atmosphere re-entry capable transporter that would serve as his new home for years to come. As the business grew, so did the crew as the ship began to see wide variety of people hiring in to employ themselves in maintain the vessel and working as couriers.*

After hearing about the recent number of colonies vanishing without a trace, Rayland was hesitant in maintaining a presence in the outer colonies and thus fearful of eventual involvement should he and his crew linger there. While prepping course for the more populated (and well defended) colonies, Rayland received word of a planned expedition organized by the Galactic Coalition to investigate the mysterious disappearances. Apparently, the Coalition had been hiring personnel and vessels into the amassed fleet to assist in the investigation; supposedly the pay would be worth more than risks involved.

Though he and the others in his fold were at first disinclined about the offer, he eventually accepted the job out of the necessity for recuperating the loss of funds during the time business was fluctuating because of the vanishings. With new purpose, the [i]Infamous Alto[/i] set course for Falymar Station; a planetoid colony serving as the staging ground for the massive expeditionary fleet. From there, the [i]Infamous Alto[/i] will ferry its tasked newcomers and join up with the rest of the force…
