Name: Cadel Bursen

Appearance, Gender & Race: [url=http://i.gyazo.com/8929e83a2675c98b63a7eb66aacce703.png]Human Male[/url]

Age: 28

Background:
Cadel was born to an impoverished family, their only source of income was from Cadel’s father, a Mechpilot in the armed forces, but when he died, their income dried up. He never knew his father. When Cadel was 7, his family was approached by Enterprise. They offered them a new life, a new beginning, as colonists. The catch was that they would potentially be going to a very hostile planet. The Bursen Family, with no other options, took Enterprise up on their offer.

The planet they arrived on was definitely hostile. Enterprise would provide supplies and defense equipment, but everything else was up to the Colonists. It was called Hurik, a jungle and swamp deathworld rich with resources on the edge of human space. Cadel grew up around mechs, eventually operating cargo mechs at the age of 13, helping the warehouses. When he was 16, he joined up with the Colonist Guard. defending the settlements against repeated attacks from Hurik’s natural predators. At the age of 18 he volunteered for the Explorer Rangers. Squads of mech pilots who explored the lands of Hurik, searching for resources and possible settlement sites. The Explorers often came under attack, and often suffered many casualties.

After four years of exploring, he became an expert pilot, fighting against a plethora of foes. Ranging from massive crustaceans to train sized armored worms. He was considered one of the Veteran Rangers. While on another run, he learned about the politics of Hurik. There was a green movement, that demanded that the colonists stop exploiting nature and instead to coexist with it. Just recently they had gone violent, becoming a terrorist movement.
This began the Hurik Civil War. With the Explorer Rangers now becoming the Hurik Rangers. Cadel fought through years of war, becoming a war hero for the Hurik Colonists. Until a Green Movement spy forged and planted evidence that he was a fraud and a coward. The people of Hurik turned against him, exiling him.

He was given a week to gather his things and leave the planet. Instead of doing that, he spent his week gathering his trusted allies from within the Hurik military to go on an unsanctioned mission to strike against a suspected major Green Movement headquarters. He lead this attack from the front, destroying the suspected headquarters, which turned out to be just what they had thought. A headquarters. He was still exiled however, and had to leave, with nothing. Seeing all of this, Enterprise decided to ensure that they stayed on good terms with Cadel.

Personality: Cadel is a fairly friendly guy. He’s cool under fire and has the temper of an iceberg. He often makes jokes, often with slang. He likes to help people out, and has a strong moral compass. Despite his skill with the mech, he often downplays his abilities, especially now. He is wary of xenos, but is fascinated by their cultures.

Gear: 
[list]
[*]Enterprise Armories [url=http://i.gyazo.com/4c3b936561ce8c3eb9c3bcdc7bdad660.png]Kyros-8V Pilot Suit[/url]. A pilot suit designed to be viable in a light infantry or survival role. The suit itself regulates temperature, is radiation and fireproof, has a built in communications system, basic HUD, respiration system, a small tank of air providing up to 5 minutes of oxygen in a non-breathable environment, and the suit is rated for EVA activity. Terrible at stopping bullets though.
[*]Enterprise Armories [url=http://i.gyazo.com/cb9d00f2dababec37f2b290c912c101e.png]LMW-50E Handgun[/url]. A fairly typical sized pulse laser handgun. The strength of the laser is equivalent to a .50 Caliber handgun round. Useful for both combat and hunting, although not extended combat. The handgun has an internal energy cell that charges at a rate of one pulse per three seconds, with a capacity of eight pulses. Useful in a pinch, but has limited use in a combat zone.
[*]Small rucksack containing basic medical box, water canteen, food, a small radio with universal charger, and some extra power cells. 
[*] Two charges of coolant flush. Coolant flushes are an expensive liquid that when pumped through the mech, eliminates most heat. Allowing the Pikeman to fire more weapons more often.

The mechsuit is one of the more advanced human-made suits out there, but however advanced it is, it is not invincible. It features advanced composite armor plating, providing protection against both ballistic and energy weapons, but unfortunately it's a jack of all trades sort of thing. Armor of the same grade that focuses on ballistic or energy protection will out-perform this composite plate. The suit itself also features communications systems, a heads up display, and multiple backup cameras in case the primary camera is disabled. 
The mechsuit is actually more like a powered armor. The armor enhancing the users strength in order to help move the suit, and carry the weapons. Currently the A3MX Pikeman is armed with two MMW-920B light pulse lasers for short range anti-personnel work, an MMW-950A medium laser for when bigger enemies appear, and a HMW-740L Particle Projector Cannon. The HMW-740L PPC is a weapon that fires a concentrated bolt of protons. Observers have commented that it appears that PPCs fire balls of lightning. While powerful, the PPC generates a considerable amount of heat, the Pikeman only able to handle four shots without overheating, the fifth shutting the suit down.
The suit is powered by a miniature fusion engine, which powers everything in the suit, from the weapons to the electronics. Despite it being a fusion reactor, special attention has been made towards making it safe. The developers have done nearly everything to cause it to meltdown, only to fail because of the safety systems built into the engine. Internal and external heat sinks have been built into the suit to help prevent overheating, when the suit does overheat, it will automatically shut down to the prevent generation of additional heat, so the heat does not damage any of the systems. When the suit is not firing, or is idle, heat gradually goes down.

Looks good. Is there any specific way you wanted to introduce Cadel or are you fine with Starfire Company just sending him in a dropship to meet up with the rest of the team?
