[b][u]Name:[/u][/b] Israfil Eihon
[b][u]Rank:[/u][/b] Ensign
[B][u]Appearance:[/u][/b] Israfil has a slight, feminine build that makes him look younger.  He has short, light gray hair and cyan eyes. He has a pleasant face, but it is marred by his look of almost constant worry and fear.  That combined with his size, paleness of skin and color of hair, often make people incorrectly assume that he is malnourished.  He is always wearing his uniform because he is more comfortable doing what he has been ordered to do rather than making his own choices or expressing his sense of self.

[B][u]Age:[/u][/b] 21
[B][u]Race:[/u][/b] Wildtype
[B][u]Citizenship:[/u][/b] The Ascendancy
[B][u]Personality:[/u][/b] Israfil is quiet and submissive.  His main motivation is to please others; criticism of any sort tends to cut him deeply as his greatest fear is the disapproval of others.  He defines his self-worth through how others feel about him and through how useful he is to others.  He has a fairly strong complex about his own lack of ability that he tries desperately to compensate for.
[B][u]History:[/u][/b] Israfil is descended from the stock of Wildtypes who had sympathized with the Ascended during their persecution under the FAS.  When the Ascendancy was formed, these Wildtype were allowed to form their own community within the Ascendancy. Though many mingled with Ascendeds, Israfil is one of the few who are still pure Wildtype, which has put him at a disadvantage through his schooling and pilot training. Despite this, he does not resent the Ascended as he has been taught by the system to accept his inferiority.  Having no real stand out qualities, it is his obedience to his betters, and the unusually high potential results of his cog-scan that let him barely squeeze by the pilot evaluation.

[B][u]Cog:[/u][/b] Orpheus
[B][u]Physical Description:[/u][/b] Israfil is a coward by nature with a lot of repressed emotions.  It should therefore come as no surprise that his cog specializes in protecting itself and overwhelmingly obliterating an enemy before it has a chance to get close. Like a mountain or a wall, Orpheus stands tall and wide, an imposing structure reminiscent of the ancient German howitzers.  Around the main humanoid body is a cape-like structure attached to the back, like wings, that acts as a shield from which protrudes beam cannons.  The thrusters that it has are inadequate to propel it at a high speed making it almost laughably immobile when compared to other cogs.  Its evaluation has shown that Orpheus actually relies on a built-in, miniature Tachyon Harp to provide a small amount of extra thrust. It's main color is [color=c8a2c8]lilac[/color], its secondary color is [color=white]white[/color] and it is accented with [color=black]black[/color], and [color=gold]gold[/color].
[B][u]Tactical role:[/u][/b] Long-range area-of-effect artillery, providing cover fire, defending tactically crucial territory through area denial.

[/list][B][u]Weapon/Equipment/Special Systems List:[/u][/b]
[List]
[*]Cape shield (6 shield plates) - The shield plates normally surround the Orpheus like a mantle to provide protection from long range attacks, but open up and can be aimed in almost any direction to bring the built-in cannons to bear.  The independently controlled shield plates leave Orpheus' hands free.
[*]6 Anti-beam field generators (1 per shield plate)
[*]6 Heavy beam cannons (1 per shield plate)
[*]1 Beam shotgun (stored on back when not in use) - The only weapon that Orpheus needs to use its hands with.  It is also Orpheus' only form of close range weapon.
