Character Sheet Name: Lennart Bennewitz Nickname: Lenny "Nuke Duck" Gender: Male Age:23 Appearance: [img]http://i.imgur.com/ARlzEZf.jpg[/img] Type of Character:Marine Rank:PFC Armor/Clothing: [img]http://i.imgur.com/wWaZAq4.jpg[/img] A slightly altered version of the standard UNSC Marine Battle Dress, while it still provides excellent protection from traditional ballistic weaponry (barring high powered sniper rifles) Lenny has incorporated a thicker sheet of flak armor across the torso and arms to suit his preferred weapons of choice, explosives. The armor, however still retains the weaknesses of its vanilla counterpart towards plasma weaponry, and while the thickened flak plates provide a modicum of protection, it was designed to catch shrapnel, not super-heated particles. That said, the extra weight of the flak plates are a hindrance. Weapons: - M319 Individual Grenade Launcher (2 HE rounds left) "Gromp", Lenny's pride and joy, requisitioned just prior to the Fall of Reach. - M7 Caseless Submachine Gun (2 Full 30 Round Mags Left) - x2 M9 HE-DP Grenades Equipment: - x2 C-12 "Damage Packs" - x2 C-7 Foam Explosives - x1 Electronic Explosives Trigger - S.I. Marine Survival Pack ( 2 days Rations, Fatigues, Radio) - S90 Gas Mask - EB Green "Duct Tape" - x1 Lotus Anti-Tank Mines - x2 Antlion Anti-Personal Mines Personality: Lenny can best be described in one word. Paranoid. Having survived ambushes (giving or receiving) from both human and alien, Lenny follows the age old rule of: "Better Safe than Sorry." Has a habit of outlining camp perimeters with high grade explosives and traps even in the most peaceful of times, and exponentially increasing severity in the worst of times. Regards strangers with disdain and distrust, always creating escape routes and contingency plans in all scenarios. While not actively hostile to those who don't directly endanger him or his squad, he keeps a finger on the trigger and a grenade ready to use at the drop of the hat. That said, he's fiercely loyal to the (few) comrades he makes, and believes vengeance is best served with 20 pounds of fiery death. History: Born in a mining complex on Muroto, an Earth-sized moon in the Chi Ceti system of the Outer Colonies. Not wanting to be a crystal miner his entire life, with bright and naive eyes he joined the UNSC Marine Corp. He first saw combat against the Insurrectionists as a standard run-of-the-mill grunt when his platoon ran into an Insurrection ambush. You'd imagine a man to fear the sight and sound of explosions after his squad-mates were decimated by a well placed C-12 charge, but Lenny took it as a deadly, yet valuable lesson. Setting off charges and grenades he impeded the Insurrectionist assault long enough for reinforcements to arrive in time to save him and two others. Lenny took these lessons to heart, the world now hostile, cold, and advancing, only slowed by a well placed mine. Promoted to a PFC and reassigned to another company he became the resident demolitions expert; with the coming of the Covenant menace, he and his comrades fought tooth-and-bomb on the Halo Installations culminating into the final Human-Shenghelli victory. After the war, he was posted in a remote outpost outside of New Alexandria. When the Flood began their horrific infestation of the galaxy, his new squad was tasked with civil defense, which soon after collapsed in the chaos. He and his squad holed up in the cities' metro system, but over time casualties in the squad amounted to Lenny being the sole survivor, trapped in a underground maintenance room, not expecting help to come.

The ground will rumble, there'll be lightning in the sky! Don't you worry, don't come undone! It's just my ghost on a PT run!” — UNSC Cadence
