She has short silver hair that she keeps clean and sort of tidy. Her eyes almost match her hair being closer to grey or a darker shade of silver. She also boasts an impressive Physique that is maintained through exercise and wearing her massive suit of armour. Her suit has a fairly simple colour scheme going for Black and Red. It is bulky and easily conceals the gender of the wearer with it's sheer size alone. It has many dim lights scattered across it with only a few that actually serve a purpose, these being the two large lights on the sides of the helmet that serve as red torches.

Its armor is strong enough to withstand small arms fire. The suit also carries a small oxygen supply that can be used to survive in space or under water for around 5 minutes. The gauntlets have air hardening kinetic shield emitters that are capable of taking a few (2-3) high caliber rounds before shattering and needing to recharge. Excalibur heavy assault rifle- This massive assault rifle fires 6mm bullets with a clip of size of 30 rounds at 600 rounds per minute at an effective range of 350 meters anything past that is pretty much safe. It only has basic ammo but it makes up for that with a giant bayonet, it's basically a entire sword stuck on a gun. (Ten clips kept on person) Ragnarok .50 cal revolver- The Ragnarok .50 cal revolver is very simple. It is a .50 cal revolver that can fire two rounds before needing to be reloaded. It's effective range is only 60 meters and the max range of 300 meters. (Twenty rounds kept on person) Deliverance multi role shotgun- The Deliverance is 12 gauge shotgun designed to make it hard for any target that decides to get into close range. All of its shots have a effective range of 45 meters. Amanda carries 4 kinds of ammunition for it. Those ammo types being; Electro buck shot, buck shot, Dragons breath (fire slug) and high explosive slug. It only houses 1 shot at a time. (12 shock rounds 24 buck shot, 6 Dragons breath and 12 high explosive carried on her person.) Attunement/enhancements: Amanda's entire body has undergone enhancements so that her body can withstand the weight of her armor suit, her bones have been reinforced and her strength augmented with cybernetics. So she can cope with its 1000lb weight. The armor itself also helps with weight management. She is more twice as strong as a regular person of her size being able to life around 600lbs. Other then her strength nothing else is altered. While in her armour she can lift around 1500lbs. Unique Ability: Cook- Amanda learnt how to cook from her parents during her early life, she was never super crazy about it. But the skills are still there. Personality: Amanda is a straight to business kind of person, not caring for formalities or pleasantries. She's in it to get jobs done, not waste time with meaningless words to people she'll probably never have to worry about again. She trusts nobody, mostly because of the fact she's not spent any substantial period of time with anyone. Earning her trust would take a few instances of you either saving her life or putting your life on the line to protect others. Though earning her trust would be harder if you were an alien, she is moderately xenophobic not to the point where she would spurt out curses and open fire the second she sees you, but enough for it to be clear that she isn't a fan of non humans. She's fine with robots and androids kinda feeling like a half robot herself. And she has a few things she never likes discussing, those things being her past, lovey kissy crap, cybernetics and Xenos. She would be able to put aside her xenophobia given enough positive interactions with a particular alien, but only that individual would be exempt. And given time possibly even friends. Unknown to most she is actually masochistic to an extent, this developed over her many torture sessions as a means to cope with the pain. Bio: Amanda's parents Catherine Krisk and Anthony Davis made her early life easy. She received plenty of love, gifts and wisdom from them. The family was very involved in supporting the military, praising the soldiers as heroes with boundless courage. This mentality quickly set itself into Amanda's mind and by the young age of 6 she'd already decided she wanted to join the army and be among the heroes that serve the people an make sure everyone is safe. Her favourite classes were Phis ed and history, Phis ed because she got to work on becoming strong and history because she got to learn about the heroes of the past and how they stopped tragedies. But by far her favourite thing was visiting the ice cream store after school. Amanda was born into a reasonably nice town, good neighbours, nice shopping centre and one of the best ice cream joints in the whole system. Unbeknown to most there were rather unsavoury activities that took place in their little town of Ba'Zesh. On Amanda's daily visits Scoop the ice cream man always greeted the young girl with a smile and a vanilla strawberry swirl. She would smile back at him then hand over the 2 dollars for the ice cream never forgetting to say thank you as she toddled out of the store. Their exchanges were brief but Amanda felt like she really knew the man. She was of coarse only 8 at this point. The rest of her primary years shot by in a flash of exercise, historical battles and ice cream. During this time she got into trouble a notable amount of times for hitting other students, but the kids she hit were exclusively bullies. This habit didn't die out when she got into high school either, in fact it got worse as her above average stature became more and more evident. Her parents tried to get her to cease the beating of the bullies but Amanda argued that she was being a hero, to that her mother responded "There is more to being a hero than beating up people, soldiers only go out to war because it's the last resort." Amanda hissed, she knew this. But still there was a big difference between war and school yard bullies. She pulled her act together after that, she even went as far as to not fight back one time as a rather small boy insulted her. She hated it, every second she wasn't hitting the bullies was agonising for her. The only reason she was able to make it through high school was because of her friends. Amanda was now in her final year of school and she was already standing at her full 6'2 height and rocking an impressive physique, this got her some attention from the boys. She rejected all attempts at partnership, she didn't want to be in a relation ship, she currently had no time for it besides she'd have to leave them for the army after she graduated, so she saw mo point. This final year of school was actually rather easy for her she was already top of her sports class and she got good scores in history, and no subject was giving her grief. Then graduation seemed to fly around. Amanda was shocked that she'd actually managed to get through this last year without one "incident" she was actually proud of herself. To celebrate their success Amanda decided the best thing to do would be to take her friends to the ice cream shop she'd visited since she was a kid. Scoop greeted her differently than he usually did, this time he had a set of ten ice creams ready. He'd guessed that Amanda would have brought her friends here tough he didn't know how many, it was just after graduation and he would have been insulted if Amanda didn't show up with her friends after a big event like that. Amanda smiled and laughed a little "Scoop you didn't need to do this, besides. What if Stacy and Henry aren't keen on vanilla strawberry swirl?" Scoop chuckled "But everyone loves vanilla strawberry swirl!" he responded with a smile. Amanda looked back at her friends who nodded in agreement "He's not wrong" Henry said with a slight smirk, Amanda's smile only grew larger as she fished around inside her pocket for some coins. "Oh you won't be needing that Amanda" Said Scoop with a jolly tone, Amanda tilted her head then Scoop put the tray forward "These one's are on the house. It's not every day you graduate now is it?" Amanda couldn't argue with that logic. So there she sat with her two best friends having their vanilla strawberry swirls, then three men wearing masks swung the door open and walked into the ice cream shop making sure to flip the open sign to closed. They didn't seem to be armed so Amanda got up out of her chair and readied herself for a fight, only then did she realise how dizzy she was. Looking back at her friends who were still sitting down she noticed the weren't moving, the looked paralysed by fear. But before she looked back at the three men she was already on the ground, one of the men looming over her, he chuckled. "Oh you're going to fetch a high price, I could name a few people who want a strong girl such as yourself." The mans chuckles were the only thing she could hear as she blacked out. Amanda woke in a cold metal cell with no windows or bars, she looked around trying to figure out what was going on. But there was nothing to see, only the walls, roof and floor. She'd already begun to shake she had no idea where she was how long she'd been asleep or who had kidnapped her, the only other semblance of life she could find in the room was the dried blood lining the corners of the room, no doubt from other captives who tried to claw their way out or something. The place was gruesome, like something from a horror movie, Amanda had no idea how long she'd be able to withstand being in such an environment. But her thoughts were cut short when a speaker crackled to life "So you're finally awake, Scoop must have put too much narcotics in your ice cream. Ah well, you're awake now and that's what matters. Now I'm sorry to inform you but you are now property, and you have actually already been sold. Normally I would tell you the buyers name but they wanted to remain ambiguous, said that they usually do things to make their purchases hate them, even more then they normally would." Amanda gritted her teeth and went to start yelling but the room was already being pumped full of gas. She again drifted off into a forced sleep. She could hear the voice apologising for knocking her out again. Yet again she woke up in an unknown location but this time she knew why shew as there, and she wasn't happy about being sold but she didn't know what kind of person had bought her. Though from that little bit of info the man behind the speaker dropped on her, her hopes for a "nice" person buying her were non existent. She knew she had to play her cards right, she was enraged that she'd been taken from her family and auctioned off, but she knew that whoever was running this operation knew what they were doing and that escaping was impossible. She was going to have to play the cards she was dealt. The room she was trapped in this time was much cleaner, but that didn't ease Amanda's conscience. She decided to speak "What do you want with me!? You obviously don't intend from me to be a slave!" A door slid open and a rather frightening looking Arraxi walked through the door. its limbs were elongated with metal implants, on the ends of its disturbingly long arms were savage looking barbed talons. It's main body was far bulkier than the arms it's shell being mixed with steel giving it reflective patches, the worst part of all was it's disgusting maw, that hundreds of needles filling it's facial cavity. The sight of this monster made her shiver slightly. "You couldn't be more wrong. You now belong to Gantu, and you are going to be one of his many mercenaries." The Arraxi's voice made Amanda's skin crawl but she hid her discomfort with a cold glare, "What happens if I say no?" She asked, there was no aggression in her voice she wanted to know if they might try targeting her family or something like that. The Arraxi paused for a moment, as if waiting for permission to talk, the silence was awkward, the ghoulish insect standing there motionlessly. "Your family will be extinguished if you do not comply." Amanda wished her hunch had been wrong but alas it wasn't she wasn't going to resist and threaten her families safety. Suddenly the Arraxi's arm extended forwards and wrapped itself around Amanda's throat and it carried her out of her cell. She tried fighting against the monsters grip for a short time but very quickly noticed how futile her attempts were. Eventually the Arraxi threw her into a room full of hideous looking tools and many operation tables, she didn't like where this was going. "Your current capabilities are not enough to satisfy Gantu's needs, so after you are trained in combat you will be enhanced. Any attempt to resist will result in the death of your kin. So please do not resist." Amanda was mortified, the situation seemed to only be getting worse and there was nothing she could do to stop it, the only thing she could do was surrender. So that is what Amanda did. She couldn't believe that her life could be changed so much in such a small period of time. As she sat their in ruin the Arraxi again picked her up by the neck and walked her into some kind of "accommodation". This is where her life as Amanda Krisk ended, and her life as the murder puppet of Gantu began. Over the next year Amanda was forced to train endlessly to become proficient with firearms, knifes and hand to hand combat. She didn't excel in anything but she did manage to get a high level of skill. Aside from her combat training she also received many torture sessions to deaden her nerves and make her more resistant to pain. She functioned less well in the torture tests much to the disappointment of Gantu. Then when she hit the age of 20 Gantu contacted her directly for the very first time. He only told her that it was time for her to receive her enhancements, she didn't want to obviously but she had no choice. Only after she'd been strapped down to the operating table did she notice that she wasn't going to get any painkillers or narcotics. She was going to go through this operation able to feel everything. She was muzzled so her screaming wouldn't annoy the surgeons, she was only conscious for about 30 minutes of the operation but that was enough for her to be able to see them implant metal enhancements into her arms, she passed out shortly after they started working on her legs. Then after the operation was done, she was presented with her suit of armour. And then forced to go though another year of the same training she had done before the operation. This time in the armour, almost everything improved besides her initial sprinting speeds. Now she was 22 and Gantu saw it fit to send her out into the galaxy to go and make him some money, Amanda preferred to take on hit missions. But she has done a little of everything. Theft, sabotage, pest control even a small amount of espionage. But after four years of missions she got caught, this was partly due to her underestimating local law enforcement and wanting to be captured anyway. She was done working for Gantu, and perhaps now that she was imprisoned on the Alkatraz she'd finally escaped him. [/hider]
