Name- Carson Roads Age- 23 Gender- Male Appearance- [hider=Carson][img]http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/125/1/6/soldier_by_1_kilometer-d3foqn0.png[/img] -Dirty blond hair, once it grows out.[/hider] Personality- Carson is a strong man, not only physically but mentally. He has seen horrible things committed by likewise horrible people and he hasn't broken, not yet. He tries to keep peoples spirits up, something of an eternal optimist without the eternal. A slight pessimism has infected that. As such, Carson knows when a ship is sinking and that a situation sometimes can't get better. Bad things happen to good people and he knows this, taking it to heart somewhat. He just tries to not add to it. Tier-1 Power/Magic- Weapon augmentation: Any object Carson can use as a weapon can be infused with a red, fiery energy that enhances the weapons effectiveness. However the nature of the augmentation causes the effected object to turn to dust once done and can only be done once every four hours. The augmentation is different for different types of weapons. Blunt- Causes small explosions of energy when struck against something. Blades- Causes any cut or stab to slowly disintegrate the body, does not work against inorganic material. Projectiles- Ammunition used turns highly destructive, ripping both cover and people apart. Bio- Carson grew up in a bad part of a distant city, he doesn't like to talk about it much. He never did too well in school and was always focused on what he could do with his hands, be that building things or beating the other kids up. Eventually he grew up, as all kids do, and graduated from being a general bully to a thug who pushed others around. As you can already tell, this didn't end well for Carson. While beating up some guy who insulted him, he got arrested for assault. However since he was just a minor he didn't get much besides a slap on the wrist and a dissapointed talking too by the police officer who arrested him. After that something changed in Carson, instead of blowing off what the officer said like he usually did from any authority he decided to turn his life around and when he could enlisted into the army. In the army he learned many of the values that he has today. Integrity, honor, fellowship, and much more. He finally felt like he belonged. In his service he was in many small time firefights, with several big ones that cost him friends. But this was nothing when they had to hold off an attack from a group of rebels. While him and his comrades were better equipped, there was just too many rebels and slowly, one by one, they began to fall. Carson only got out alive because one of his friends hid him underneath his dying body. After that Carson was never truly the same, the light had died in his eyes and the allure of service seemed much less appealing. He never reenlisted. Soon after his twenty second birthday Carson moved to Naveria and has been living off of saved up money in a cheap apartment. Personal- [b]Integrity[/b]- Carson may be many things. A soldier, a killer, a drunkard, but he is not a lier. No matter what happens he can be counted on to keep his word and wont lie unless very specific circumstances have occurred. Take that what you will. [b]Dog Tags[/b]- These dog tags have two sets on them, his and his friend. John Marsh. These are very dear to him and he is seldom seen without them.
