As a piece of trivia; what Claudette's mother said about Miss Greenwood is pretty much a paraphrasing of something my own mother has said about her sister in-law.

Welcome to Italian families, we live for drama.

Anyways, I was a bit busy yesterday but here I am now. For the sake of convenience I will make another post tonight, that way we can move things along. I know @Verdaux and @The ghost in black haven't posted yet but my post will actually make it easier for them to start. Expect this post in about four hours.

I apologize for my delays here. Every time I've sat down to write I've ended up being drawn away from the computer and I know this next post I have to make is going to be a long one. However I have been saving the parts I got done so I will try to get it finished tonight. If not within the next couple hours then tomorrow it will be posted.

Alrighty, here she is! Aina Mäkelä from Finnland, I mean, uh.... Faleshslovia! Yeah! 

Oh and if it wasn't obvious, I totally copied @Verdaux description of the Trench Knife on purpose, of course, to show how Aina had no issue in simply looting weapons off dead soldiers. :D 

~ 5'8 - 130lbs - Somewhat Muscular~

Her back and parts of her arms are covered in scars caused by 3rd degree burns, most likely from explosions.

Personalia

Personal details of importance

【Name:】

Aina Mäkelä

【Nickname:】

None yet. Her former comrades did call her "Suuri Tykistö" (Big Gun)

【Gender:】

Female

【Age:】

20

Psychological report

A report on subjects' mental health and forté

【Personality:】

Aina has given many things to this world. The wondrous book "Turning Tractors into Tanks for Dummies™", the 6pdr BRT-44 Tractor Tank, and, most notably, the "Mäkelä Suspension Conversion Technique!™". However, there is but one thing she has never give. A single fuck. Yes, Aina is seemingly never phased by any situation, no matter how dire or terrifying. She consistently keeps a cool, slightly smug smile on her face, typically keeping those around her calm. No matter the situation, she always seems to have a plan for it... or at least looks like she has a plan for it. Any insult thrown her way is immediately rebuffed with a well made smart remark. Yes, nothing seems to really ruffle this cool cat's fur... Well, nothing except the Crucible Ground Forces. 

When engaged with any member of the Crucible's military, that calm, collected look might falter for a moment, her smooth, relaxed voice jumping in tone for a bit. One might see that Aina can be a terrifying beast. Her expression will normally start to darken, that slightly smug smile growing into an angry grin. Suddenly, this charismatic, calm, collected individual is turned into a bloodthirsty, mad maniac.  

【History:】

Their is a cluster of islands, fairly some distance north, away from Krukow, known as Faleshslovia. Well, it was known that, before the Crucible showed up with its legions for the last time. Now, the leaders of Crucible would most likely say they've never heard, or heard little of this island chain, but this little island that was at once the independent nation of Faleshslovia was a huge thorn in the side of the empire that sought to roll right over it. Officially, it was never named a war, but to those who fought on both sides, it was very much one. Known to the veterans of both sides as the "The Forever Wars", this small country put up one of the fiercest, most unconventional fights the Crucible had ever seen.

When the Crucible came to annex the small nation, they deployed their usual "Overwhelm the locals with superior firepower and technology" and at first it seemed to work, at least to the officers of the Crucible. The enemy simply ran from the frontlines, not even firing a single shot! They soon learned, however, that to the people's army of Faleshslovia, there was no such as "frontlines". Any time the Crucible forces attempted to push any land invasion, they would get harassed by enemies all over. They would find that the enemy had no quarrel in capturing, re-purposing, and then using Crucible built weapons against their invaders. Often times Crucible forces would find themselves having to blow up their own vehicles, or get shot at by their own guns. 

During the "5th Forever War" is were Aina entered service to defend her homeland at age 16. The wars had been fierce, but the nation of Faleshslovia was decaying due to the constant war. Despite the successful tactics, each day they lost more men, material, and resources to the seemingly never ending waves of Crucible campaigns. Thus, as age requirements for service began to drastically lower, Aina joined as soon as she could. She had grown up mostly in the theaters of this war. Watched as Crucible airships shelled indiscriminately at towns, watched as Crucible soldiers butchered her small mountain village. Now she wanted payback. At first, she did well, serving in many raids on Crucible positions, but she wanted to contribute more. There was a serious shortage of armor for the military. Their airship fleet was all but completely destroyed in the 3rd war, so Faleshslovia had been relying heavily on its ground forces to harass and force crucible invaders off their lands. Aina, in a sudden stroke of brilliance, proposed a shockingly simple idea to her superiors. Why not simply convert civilian vehicles, such as cars, tractors, and trucks into fighting vehicles. Thus many engineers of the nation began to to covert whatever they could find, mounting howitzers on the backs of tractors, machine guns on cars, ect. Aina in particular was responsible for the armored tractor known as the BRT-44 and even commanded on at age 18. 

But it was pointless in the end. The Crucible always get's what it wants. No matter the costs. 

So, in the face of such fierce resistance on the ground, the Crucible decided to simply turn the islands into smoldering ruins from the sky. For three straight months, during the 5th and final campaign of the "Forever Wars", the Crucible Navy bombarded every perceived pocket of populated centers, civilian or military. Shell after shell, bomb after bomb, rained down on the towns, villages, depots, and positions on Faleshslovia. Many died to the bombings, the fires, and the starvation that followed as each farm and warehouse burned. What was left of the nation of Faleshslovia afterwords either surrendered or fled the nation, fading into the uncontrolled frontiers of the Crucible. 

Aina herself barely escaped with her life, stowing away aboard a merchant ship that happened to be trading with a Crucible unit at the time. For months, she has been bunny hopping from island to island, doing small jobs here and there, and staying clear of the Crucible. She now finds herself on the small agricultural island of Krukow, with nothing but the uniform and equipment she had when she fled her homeland... her fate, uncertain. 

Combat investigatory reports

Data gathered by interviews and evaluations

【Classification:】

Human

【Skills:】

Aina is unconventional and unpredictable, both in and out of combat. She's one to think outside of the box, and come up with interesting solutions for practical problems, whether trying to fix a machine or coming up with the quickest way to bring down a Crucible Squad. As such, its hard for opponents and even allies to keep up with her. In terms of actual skill in fighting, she's decent in hand to hand as well as at range, particularly with large guns.

【Techniques:】

"Mäkelä Suspension Conversion Technique!™"
This technique is pretty useless for anything that doesn't involve some sort of motor vehicle, a wrench, some springs, and a pretty big "Fuck You" cannon.

"Cold Steel Combat!"
A form of hand to hand combat taught to the soldiers of Faleshslovia with a Mäkelä twist! Essentially it involves getting in close with a combatant with a concealed knife or clubbing weapon and surprising the opponent with a flurry of attacks. Aina has streamlined it somewhat, allowing more freedom in both defense and offense. 

【Equipment:】

Faleshslovian M22 Sub-Machine Gun. 
A 7.62×25mm sub-machine gun, commonly used by Faleshslovian forces. This sub-machine gun was easy to make, and made for one hell of a suppressing weapon. While normally seen with a 72 round drum mag, Aina opted for the more easily carried 35 round magazine. It was purposefully chambered in Crucible rounds, so that soldiers could simply pillage ammo of their dead enemies. On the wooden stock, there is scratched the phrase "death to tyrants"

Imperial Weapon - Mk. 10 
The Mk. 10 is a tried-and-true weapon for any soldier in the Empire. However, the soldiers of the Empire seem to have not been taught how to use it properly, as Aina showed them. Lifted off the corpse of a Crucible soldier, especially effective in puncturing armored opponents, it also has its uses as a deterrent for civilian insurrections with a knuckle-guard pointed enough to deliver a killing blow.  It even functions as a survival tool with a blade capable of sawing through wood and bone.

Two Bottles of Faleshslovian Vodka

The Improvised Faleshslovian Close Quarters Weapon, Mk. 2
Essentially a wodden club with a hard, dull metal ax blade wedged at the top. A gruesome, but effective bludgeoning weapon. 

【Position:】

Aina will most likely take up some sort of mercenary work, however, her background in fiddling with machines does allow her to fulfill a mechanic type role, particularly when it comes to firearms of any size, vehicles, and the combining of said firearms and vehicles.
