Loud. The young girl has a vibrant personality with a matching taste for music. Most of the time when she is in her NC the sounds of a hard hitting bassline can be heard. This music isn't just for show as it helps her to regulate her thoughts in order to sync up with the NC. This wild attitude comes as a serious double edge sword since she lives off pure adrenaline. Madison has been known to run her ammo supplies completely dry, take on NCs far stronger than what she is trained for, and will even risk her own life in order to make a final blow. However being loud doesn't mean that she is open. She will rarely talk about her past, specifically the death of her parents, and with the events of late she has been more closed off than usual. She is now at the point where others are concerned about her being too quiet, wondering if she still has the willpower to get back into an NC.[/color][/indent] [b]EFFECTS OF POLARIS SHIFT[/b] [indent][color=gray]The 'Polaris Shift' has unfortunately given Madison a severe case of bi-polar, affecting her moods in ways that can send her into a hyperactive state of euphoria or a sense of absolute depression. For the girl these emotions are new and she is very confused with what to think about herself, leaving her currently feeling worthless and hopeless. During a shift Madison will begin to feel a sensation of bloodlust and rage, turning her into a monster on the frontlines. She will break ranks, she will ignore injuries, and she will do anything in her abilities to take down her intended target.[/color][/indent] [b]PERSONAL HISTORY[/b] [indent][color=gray]Madison was born in a small community but was left abandoned when her entire settlement was wiped out by a raiding force. She was only a little girl at the time and was discovered by a small group from the colony of Smith's Rest as she wandered the empty wasteland, sad and alone. They decided to take her back and placed her under the care of an engineer known as Duncan Brown. There she grew up for the next two decades, learning how to operate and use the different types of machinery that Duncan worked on. Through his guidance she became very knowledge about the NCs, learning the different ways to repair and operate them. It was only a matter of time before she ended up fighting for the cause along with the others at the now named New Anchorage. With this team she performed well, taking on other NCs and mercenaries alike until a terrible accident during a Volkov mission, an accident that nearly took her life when a Warhead from her NC exploded at point blank. Madison and her NC was airlifted by Blur back to base where the team had to cut through the wreckage in order to reach her. For the following months she was placed in an induced coma and heavily operated on so that they could save her life. Eventually the girl woke up and since then she has been struggling to find her true calling. Madison is currently unsure about who she is, her skills, and even feels like a shadow amongst the other pilots. Through all that heartache she can hear the cockpit of her NC slowly calling back to her, begging her to take the controls once again, demanding that the show must go on.[/color][/indent] [b]INFLUENCE & RELATIONS[/b] [indent][hider=Relations]Duncan Brown - [color=gray]Duncan was Madison's carer for most of her life but after her accident he left New Anchorage, telling her fellow pilots that he believed he failed in protecting her.[/color][/hider] [/indent] [hr][hr][center][img]http://i.imgur.com/aGA2pjp.png[/img][/center][hr][hr] [b]APPEARANCE[/b] [indent][color=gray]Madison is a young woman in her early 20's with a distinct taste for heavy, hard wear clothes; usually with a choice of factory work boots, a thick jacket with a woollen interior and an old set of torn jeans pants. She has vibrant pink hair which is coloured as her natural hair is a crisp blonde that she dislikes, while her overall skin tone and texture gives her the innocent look of a younger teenager. Whenever she walks she likes to let her feet hit the floor with a heavy thud, giving an impression that she is simply bigger than what her small size indicates. Ever since the Volkov job she has been in ICU (Intensive Care Unit) and during that time had to have some immediate, life threatening operations performed in order to save her life. Some of the damage she endured included a searing blast to her [url=https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/a9/5c/fc/a95cfc28745f404831f938d343573dfb.jpg]left eye[/url] where the iris and cornea were damaged, thus requiring an artificial insert; and a deep wound in her right arm that got infected in the bone. This wound in particular needed an immediate amputation and was in turn replaced with a bionic limb.[/color][/indent] [b]TRAITS[/b] [indent][i]Mechanical Knowledge[/i] - [color=gray]Madison is a skilled mechanic and knows how to make various changes to an NC. After all... she did grow up with a man who rebuilt her original NC from a pile of scrap.[/color] [i]Music Lover[/i] - [color=gray]Most of the people on base already know that Madison has an annoying love for music to the point where it can become distracting. What many of them don't know is that she is quite gifted when it comes to her own vocals and will sing to herself if she is alone and unable to hear a beat.[/color] [i]Nimble[/i] - [color=Gray]This hyperactive girl has way too much energy to store up and not use. Unlike others that are skilled at fighting Madison's strength comes in her speed and agility, a trait that can be seen on the battlefield.[/color] [i]Bonkers!!!![/i] - [color=gray]Probably less of a skill than anything else, but at her peak Madison is quite the insane individual.

The hydraulic legs can be used in order to leap towards an opponent, drastically reducing the distance to meters.[/color][/list] [list][*][i]Rendering Claws[/i] - [color=gray]Each arm has been equipped with a set of rendering claws. Rather than just being of a simple metal design these claws are edged with plasma jets, giving the appearance that the edge of the blades are on fire. Not only is this an advantage for tearing apart unlucky NC units but at night it can create an impressive light show.[/color][/list] [list][*][i]Emergency Protection[/i] - [color=gray]Due to how the NC will be more of an up close and personal unit, several safety measures have been put into place. The First is a [i]Damage Awareness System[/i] which will take note of any components that aren't working correctly and will reroute power, plasma, and movement through other pathways. This essentially creates a unit that can take a variety of hits and yet still perform in battle. The Second is the [i]I'm-Outta-Here[/i] command. This series of code was introduced specifically for Madison considering how battle hungry she can get. When the NC's damage reaches a certain threshold the internal system will lock out her inputs and automatically activate the escape pod ejection protocol.[/color][/list][/indent] [b]OBSERVATIONAL NOTES[/b] [indent][color=gray]Mad-Cat is a redesign of the old Mad-E model NC, a necessity considering the amount of damage it endured after the incident. A large portion of the heavy armour plates were removed and the Warhead Launcher was decommissioned, allowing the NC to be reduced back to a standard structure for the mechanics to work on. The team believed that if Madison was to get back into an NC she would be more suited for something a lot more mobile than the heavy, over equipped unit that she operated before. The Mad-Cat has only recently been fitted out but upon completion it will show off its fresh, sky blue design and superior melee combat abilities. The unit has been reduced in size to something that borders on the line of medium to small NC rather than the bulkier design of old.[/color][/indent] [/color] [hider=Former CS] [center][img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/b9/0c/0d/b90c0dce91a00e7b04f9402af88ff612.jpg[/img][/center][color=ffd1dc][center][h3][u][b] M A D I S O N C O L E [/b][/u][/h3][/center][/color][center] [hider=Pre-Accident Appearance][img]http://i.imgur.com/Wo50HYU.png[/img][/hider][img]http://66.media.tumblr.com/51fc61ac770a524e9468f174afa94d7f/tumblr_inline_n1xc79Kcic1rb3m8r.png[/img] [color=ffd1dc][i]"But...
