Origin: Colonies, with Parisien upbringing
Faction: EFSF
Newtype: Yes. 
Personality: Though not a dyed-in-the-wool Zeon lover by any means, Dallas isn't exactly a "truth, justice, and kissing babies on the head" kind of war hero - nor is he a brooding wreck who sobs about the lives he's taken whenever he leaves the cockpit . Rather, his personality flaws all lay in his poor attitude in general. Intentionally needling, irreverent, and quick to anger, the mercurial young man loves to pout and roll his eyes with aplomb, and his Cheshire grin is just as often intended to make someone else roll their eyes right back at him. He's not without his vanity either, often going out of his way to emphasize his own attractiveness or flirt with others. Noted pansexual.

Despite his love of being the bad boy, the French brat has a heart of gold somewhere underneath the jackassery. Bold and fearless to a fault, his incessant need to talk often belies his Newtype prowess, superb oratory skills and a creative mind. It's not rare for you to shut Dallas up only to find yourself thinking later on how there were some good ideas underneath the stream of jokes, come-ons, and curses.
Backstory: Born to a pair of ne'er-do-wells on Shangri-La in Side 1, the boy who would later take the alias Dallas Grenier never knew anything but chaos. His father was a drinking and ambivalent young man who hardly cared when his son was taken away by his girlfriend; Dallas was brought without conflict to his mother's native Paris at the age of 4 and served as her anchor throughout a life wrought with tension and vice. Always an adventurous, reckless, and open-hearted child, the young Parisien grew up at the heart of his mother's life of partying, prescriptions, and solicitation - and, under the impression that this was something resembling a normal life, fell into all the same traps as he grew older.

Somehow (through what he regarded throughout childhood as a guardian angel, and later learned was Newtype prowess) he was successful enough at his chosen vocations -  fighting, prostitution, theft, scams, and sweet talking - to keep paying off fines for the majority of his teens, but eventually even the boy's luck ran out. He was caught and arrested less than a month before Operation British on a number of charges and, unable to pay off all his charges or talk his way out of his situation, was thrown into jail. However, a few months into the war between the Earth Federation and Side 3, he was approached in jail with what seemed like a fair proposition:

Either devote his worthless life to the Federation and be among the first testers of the Federation's jury-rigged poor man's psycommu system, or die like a rat on the off chance the next colony fell on Paris while he rotted away in jail.

With those two rosy options before him, the young con man took on the alias of Dallas Grenier for the purposes of enlisting in the Earth Federation, and found surprising success behind the cockpit of his custom GM Juggler.
