Name: Ruby Cloutier

Age: 21

Gender: Female

Occupation: Walker pilot: Private

Appearance: Tall at 5'11"(180cm), Ruby stands heads over some of her fellows. Dirty blond hair drapes comfortably down her back almost exclusively in a neat ponytail, and her eyes are a dull green color. Her french heritage shows in her large nose and puffy cheeks.

Equipment: standard sidearm, mobile phone, class ring from high school, uniform, Miss Direction.

Skills: Markmanship, playing simulation games,

Personality: Generally upbeat and pleasant, Ruby finds her way through life fairly easily, and never hesitates to speak her mind, be that a kind word, or critisism about her CO's orders. She's thrilled about having her own giant robot. She's a bit of a slacker when it come to the day to day duties, but she's always on when it counts.

Bio: Young and seeking employment before getting fed up with the job market and joining the military, Ruby's life has been fairly uneventful, with a supportive family and a gender transition when she was 16. She doesn't talk much about that time as she doesn't see the point. She doesn't avoid the topic if brought up. her military life has been short, but she jumped at the chance to pilot an AW and couldn't be happier now to be a military woman.

Weaknesses: Her general inexperience often puts her at a disadvantage in combat, and her easy going nature does occasionally land her in trouble. Her noted apathy for basic day to day responsibilities has also impeded her progress.

Base Model: Gunner FAW-016

 

Designation: Miss Direction

 

Appearance: Unpainted, Miss Direction is an angular, tanky Walker with thick, boxy legs and a broad torso. Her joints are twice the strength of other walkers of her class, due to the heavy redundant armor plating on her torso and the massive shield.  Her sensory head is something out of a scifi military game, sporting a broad, orange visor

 

Armament-

Upgraded joints, these double strength joints allow for Miss Direction to actually stand under the weight of her arms and armor.

Head: 2x 60mm Vulcan rotary guns, for AA.

Shoulders: 1x FAW-15 Railgun, requires stop and brace. Essentially a single, larger version of the now standard double Railguns, this older model packs twice the punch, but also is bulky, locked in a forward position, and nigh impossible to use in close combat, not to mention it's slow firing speed. Able to be detached to improve agility slightly in emergency situations.

Chest: 2x racks of 6 255mm missiles each. Carries 12 additional missiles, can be loaded with variable payload as mission dictates, but typically carries HEAT, but can be fitted with spreading micromunitions at the cost of not being able to lock onto a target. Requires one minute to fully reload after depletion. 
1x Bulwark redundant armor system. This additional armor plating is an ablative type that fits over the existing standard armor of the Walker, significantly increasing it's survivability in combat.

 
Arm left: 1x Phalanx-class deployable cover shield, planted in ground, expands to cover a roughly 45 degree angle. Heavy.

Arm right: 1x Ares-class 100mm heavy machine gun, 130 round drum with attached vibro-bayonet for close quarters defense.

Weaknesses: SLOW. Even by Gunner standards, Miss Direction is painfully slow, due to heavy payload and increased armor. Can be quickly overwhelmed due to single pilot controls of Gunners being notoriously complex. Armor has weakpoints on the securing hardpoints of the detachable Railgun.
