[hider=Khopesh] [img]http://i.gyazo.com/795b7fb58dde76243786fc20ca4c3009.png[/img] [b]Name:[/b] Ico "Khopesh" Sardonyx [b]Age:[/b] 23 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Role/Position:[/b] Leader of The Swordhawks branch of the Iron Talons. Zero-G Salvage, Combat and Exploration. [b]Personality:[/b] Khopesh is a man of few words, the most talking you'll get out of him, is if he's talking strategy with other officers, or if he's giving a briefing. Other than that, he speaks mostly through his helmet, which can display images, and through his actions. Some say he's a very tense person to be around, due to his faceless helmet and unwillingness to speak, although others say he's very good company. Always listening, offering help, food and drink. Khopesh is a compassionate person, always wanting to help in some way, often in the way of some humor. He sometimes exaggerates his reactions, and its not every day you see a faceless, armored mercenary display a blushing face on his visor, and then hide behind a couch. However, in a combat situation, he becomes more serious. Often forcefully patting someone if they make a mistake, or to get their attention. In combat, the face on his visor is always a skull. [b]Species:[/b] Spaceborn Human [b]Relation/Bio:[/b] Khopesh's older and younger sister, mother and father still live on the space colony they have always lived on. Khopesh and his father maintain a strictly business like relationship, while he has basically been raised by his mother and older sister. Because of this, he and his friends have a running joke that Khopesh is 40% female. Khopesh has a very good relationship with his sisters, and a pretty good relationship with his mother. This family is your run of the mill middle class family, living in a space colony. When Khopesh was a young teenager, he was hired as a space salvage worker by a small crew, given a space suit, he was to go into the ruins of ships to tag salvage. He got very good at the job, and the boss became sort of a second father to him. After an accident involving space pirates, the boss was killed, and a young Khopesh took charge. Under his guidance, the crew acquired better and better equipment, eventually going into the remains of space battles, getting battle salvage. A very dangerous, but highly profitable method. Due to the danger of secondary explosions, ships still in motion, space pirates wanting in on the salvage, and very unpredictable nature of battle salvaging, the young Khopesh renamed his crew to [i]"The Swordhawks"[/i]. It was several years of doing this when The Swordhawks found themselves in a very sticky situation, it was the very timely arrival of an Iron Talon vessel that saved them. Khopesh, wanting to repay them, pledged loyalty, and the entirety of the Swordhawks did as well. The Swordhawks salvage crew then merged into the Iron Talons, and became a branch of the PMC. Regarding relationships in the Iron Talons, Khopesh mostly kept to himself and his small crew of 20 Salvagers, which were split into teams of 5. Outside of his own crew, he befriended many of the armorers and officers of the Iron Talons. The armorers, because Swordhawk gear would get damaged somehow, almost every time they went on a salvaging mission, and the officers, because Khopesh was the leader and spokesperson for the Swordhawks. Aside from that however, many of the Iron Talon members kept away from the black armored salvagers, leaving an atmosphere of mystery around Khopesh and his teams. [b]Weapons:[/b] -Byzantium Shroud ARL-55c Laser Carbine. A fairly powerful laser weapon, this particular carbine has an expanded cooling system to allow for more shots before overheating, as well as a 2x gun sight. On the side of this carbine is an infrared laser and tactical flashlight. This carbine can only be fired in semi-automatic.

This Exos was made with personalization in mind. Khopesh modified his with a custom built helmet, which features a heads ups display, built in IRNV modes, and an illusion shield. This illusion shield is actually his faceplate, a one way visor that allows the user to change the image on the faceplate. Usually Khopesh has his set to a skull, but he may change this to a happy face, sad face, angry face, etc. Additional modifications include a built in backpack, life support systems, Reaction Control Systems, and forearm mounted computers with hologram projectors. -EVA Suit. This particular EVA suit has been reinforced with particularly strong materials, making it very difficult to tear. -Utility Belt. Most of the stuff in this belt include high strength wire.
