Name: Katrina Eisenhauer, callsign Hurricane
Age: 29
Gender: Female
Race/Species: Human

Homeworld: Mayflower, Tau Ceti System. Mayflower was the first Human colony outside the Sol System, descended from a sleeper ship launched in the mid-22nd century. Mayflower is now one of the largest settlements of Humanity in the universe with a population scraping at one and a half billion, centered around the massive city of New Plymouth.

Personality: Major Eisenhauer follows the path blazed by Chuck Yeager seven centuries before - people will think you're incredibly cool if you can pull five gs, shoot down an enemy fighter, and crash-land on the deck of the ship with your fighter have blasted apart and walk away without your voice shaking. She's all about the image, partly out of her ego - which is considerable - and partly for the respect of the subordinate officers, it just doesn't do to have some wetnosed grunt hearing the Major crap herself on the comm. She's a soldier through and through, loyal to the flag and to her superiors, ready if not eager to lay down her life for her shipmates.

Biography/History: Even when she was a kid Katrina wanted to fly, a desire that's not so rare. Katrina's desire never really abated, however, fueled by flight simulator games and books and films about flying and pilots. As she grew into her adolescence every credit she could scrounge went into a small fund, and by the time she was sixteen she had a small craft of her own. It wasn't much to speak of, a purely atmospheric craft, but it was hers and she got pretty good with it, and if it wasn't as practical as a car or as cool as a bike it made up for it in the sheer joy to fly it, and it was in that seat that she made her decision. Two years later, on her eighteenth birthday, she applied to the IAIF Pilot Corps, and within a few weeks had shipped out to the nearby training facility in Polaris.

Two years later she graduated, earning her wings and the rank of Lieutenant, and began her tour of duty - initially flying with 99th Sabercats Squadron out of Zeta Reticuli and earning her callsign (it's a long story, she'll tell you sometime if you buy her a scotch), a position she remained in until her transfer to the IV Midnight Rain six months ago.
