Character Description (Physically): 
General Rodrim Payne is a stern man in his early 40's who is rarely seen outside of his uniform. His black hair line is starting to recede with age and stress, but this is a man who has kept himself at the perk of physical fitness when he is not reading over paperwork. His skin is a light shade of coffee while his eyes are a harsh, piercing brown. His face is largely free of blemishes, through those few who have seen his bare legs or chest will quickly find scars and marks aplenty. 
 
Character Description (Mentally):
General Rodrim Payne is a man who is dedicated to his country and will do whatever it takes in order to further the goals of the Tushian Empire, no matter how morally abhorrent such actions might be to others. It is ultimately his decision if a xeno race or power encountered by the Empire is to be absorbed or exterminated by the Empire and history has shown that he is not afraid to do either. He is a man that is dedicated to his career, having sacrificed two marriages in the past in his duty to the Empire. His relationship to his current wife is distant due to the fact that both of them are career oriented, through the fact that they have had two children together means that they do make time for each other every now and then. 
  
Biography:
Rodrim Payne was born on Tushina back when it was still apart of the Empire but during the decades of unrest before it abandoned the planet completely. Like many on Tushina, he joined the military academy at a young age and alongside a wonderful education was molded into a prime solder. While many in his class went on to pursue civilian careers once they graduated and their two years in the military had been served, Rodrim pursed a military career alongside his marriage to his first wife. As he climbed the ranks and found himself with less time to spend with his family, tensions grew until he was forced to make a decision between the two of them. He choose his career. His second marriage two years later suffered the same fate after six months.  

Shortly after raising to the rank of General and being given a command position in the Obsidian Order, Rodrim met and later married General Linda Hopsin, the woman in charge of civilian affairs. The two of them have been rather happy since then, having two children (aged 11 and 9 respectively). 

It was under Rodrim's command and orders that the Ko'Bold's were brought into the Empire... and the two other species in the system were deleted from existence. He has no regrets for his actions.
