Name: Galen Kaiser Race: Turian Call sign/ nickname: Captain Age: 29 Weight: 203 lbs. Height: 7 foot Appearance: [hider=Galen] [img=https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=4657b71e7d&view=att&th=143f4960d0d505c8&attid=0.1&disp=emb&realattid=ii_143f495f52aeb236&zw&atsh=1][/hider] Personality: Galen is quite sarcastic for a Turian but a natural leader. He brings a cocky attitude into battle and diplomacy alike, and while this quality can get on the nerves of both his enemies and his superiors he always seems to get the job done. Even with his "unprofessional" attitude he has risen in ranks out of sheer tactical genius and combat skills. After all no Turian will argue with results. He leads his troops from the front, always willing to put his own life at risk in order to save his men or innocents. While most would not think it at first glance, he has a strict moral code. Galen strives to do the right thing and has been known to disobey orders on moral grounds. He has been called everything from sarcastic prick to brilliant hero. He has a cold hatred toward the Reaper Cult and any of its followers, and will not hesitate to "inform" Cultists of his opinion. Galen is strict we he needs to be and knows when to give his men a rest. Galen is also a shrewd diplomat despite his slightly arrogant nature. Class: Sentinel Powers: Overload, Wrap, tech armor, throw, slam, lift grenade Biography: Born in 21 A.B.E to the Turian admiral Marcus Kaiser and his wife Sila, Galen grew up around the high ranks of the Turian military. His mother and father pushed him through the best military academies of the Turian Hierarchy since he was four years old. He was seen by instructors and students alike as the most gifted young Turian in his class. He excelled in history, military tactics, and combat simulations without giving much effort. Many instructors began to see him as a lazy sarcastic ass, but the best and brightest sarcastic ass they had ever seen in their lives. Throughout his teens, Galen was put into gifted classes in the military academy on Palaven. There he met his closest friends, Spiros Vandarin and his sister Emala. The three soon became the top scoring squad in all areas of the training simulations. By the time Galen was sixteen, it was determined that he had biotic potential. He was trained away from the other students in the academy with the other few biotic prospects. While he wasn't the best biotic student (something his father considered a failure in his son) he was gifted. When his training was completed at the age of 18, he was reunited with Spiros and Emala. They were each granted the title of lieutenant and assigned to the Turina war ship Bakas. Galen spent his next three years fighting Reaper Cult terrorists who were bombing some of the weaker Turian colonies. He won multiple commendations for brave actions against these terrorists and eventually assassinated their leader. The threat was thought to be ended. At 26 he married his long time friend Emala Vandarin. Galen was granted command of the Bakas and made his new wife his XO. Galen was placed under the command of his father in the 8th fleet along with the Garnicus, the vessel that Spiros now captained. For a year the Turian empire lived in relative peace until the start of the claim war. A Turian who was a member of the Reaper Cult had employed Blue Suns, Eclipse, and Blood Pack to invade the empire for his "right" to the Primarchy. In one battle over Menae, the Garnicus was destroyed and Spiros was killed. Not being able to live with the grief of her brother being dead, Emala commited suicide. She was pregnant. When Galen was 28, he was offered command of a Dreadnought class starship by his father. Instead he retired from the Turian military and was offered a job as a Spectre by the CItadel council. He accepted and for a year he completed many missions on the behalf of the council. Soon he was offered command of the Normandy SR-3, a ship to be crewed by the best new Spectres the council had to offer. He would lead the highly deadly strike team on its mission to restore galactic peace. A job easier said than done.
