Standing at a modest one hundred and sixty centimeters and weighing a total of fifty-four kilograms, Naomi attempts to maintain a youthful appearance despite the rigors of a military life. Naomi has irises are a gentle blue reminiscent of the waters of the English Channel, whilst she keeps her blonde hair cut short right before it reaches the shoulders.

As a representative of the British Empire, and by extension, the Special Operations Executive, Naomi continues to adorn military garb respective of her home country. Wearing a white undershirt underneath, Naomi showcases a worn pair of camouflaged fatigues, black combat boots, and a red beret designating her role as a SOE agent. 

As a final note, various satchels and pouches–used to store field supplies–are layered over Naomi's person by strap or belt loop. Inside these bags hold any ammunition Naomi had managed to scavenge from fallen German soldiers while on the Eastern Front, and an old broken, bloodstained watch that seems to be stuck forever at 12:07.[/indent][color=0071FF][sub][b]Personality[/b][/sub][/color][hr][indent]When one thinks of Naomi, they often remember how cold and cunning she can be.

Despite the fall of her country, Naomi is living proof of the old saying: "for King and Country." Naomi continues to hold both the British crown and the United Kingdom in high regard, being afflicted by the jingoism that has taken over the recent era of history. This raw emotion usually clouds Naomi's judgement, who continues to hold an inextinguishable grudge against the Third Reich and its people. From the death of her loved ones to the fall of the United Kingdom, each individual event remains fresh in Naomi's thoughts, promising to "carve up any Kraut" she sees.

At the same time, years worth of skirmishing in Eastern Europe has emotionally drained Naomi from her previous cheerful outlook. Those who are deemed to be "talking bollocks" (i.e. nonsense) or spending pointless time beating around the bush are usually berated, mainly because Naomi would prefer being straight to the point instead of attempting to sweeten up a conversation. Additionally, Naomi tends to keep herself from growing attached to her fellow squad mates, knowing full and well the truth of seeing someone she cares about dying. Naomi's parents are gone, her brothers are gone, and even her Mie is gone.

All that matters to Naomi is killing another German until the British flag is planted well above the Reichstag.[/indent][color=0071FF][sub][b]Classification[/b][/sub][/color][hr][indent][color=0071FF][b]Specialist[/b][/color] - Commonly known as the 'Specialist' throughout the authorities of Squad 914, this infantry unit follows tactics of adaptability, following orders of suppression, shock tactics and breakthrough movement in order to support their fellow comrades.

However, while she favors the use of British weaponry, Naomi has no qualms with Soviet weaponry and its usage on the battlefield.

Whilst in a training incident, the prototype compression canisters exploded, launching one of his assistants across the hall with not too many serious injuries. The design for the SHG-48 was mostly based upon Spanish materials, but the inspiration he was given allowed him to design something completely from scratch and from within his own and incredible mind. Here, the SDJM-48 came into the picture.

The Short-Distance Jump Mechanism, commonly referred to as the SDJM-48, the 'Jump-Pack' or the 'Thrust-Suit,' was designed to launch the user under controlled conditions over a short distance, being a few meters. This was the ideal invention Atyre had in mind for combating fast-paced movement across rooftops in urbanized areas for marksmen. 

However, during its design and testing, he realized that the suit itself served great use of dashing between streets, cover and battlefields for short distances, as well as launching the user into the air by a few meters to assist in climbing and scaling unreachable edges, allowing Atyre to think of better uses. And so, through even more testing, through the use of CQC courses, Atyre found the SDJM-48 to be just as, if not more, effective when ran by a infantryman as a marksman would use it.

The SDJM-48 uses larger compression tanks built into the backpack slots, containing two ports for the canisters to sit within, much like how a double-barreled shotgun holds its cartridges, and feeds its compression tanks into mainly the back, leg or arm ejection systems. The backpack itself is not over encumbering, and is more part of the suit, but can be detached. The rest of the invention is mostly dependent on the user itself. An exo-skeletal frame is fitted specifically for the user's body, to prevent the enemy using it against them if captured, which hold nozzles to eject the huge bursts of pressure and force to propel them slightly.

In addition to this, emergency, and far smaller, canisters can be fitted into a compartment on each arm and leg, acting as a single thruster on each limb. Whilst this seems an advantage, these have to be triggered directly via pressing a trigger button on each limb. These problems are yet to be fixed, but it is still a prototype feature to the prototype equipment. As for the main source of compressed force, but hitting a button on the hip, the user can initiate the upward thrust if pressed on the right side. 

If the left side is pressed, the force is directed behind the user, helping them move forward towards things like cover and other rooms quicker, most effective when sliding. These are triggered by pistol-triggers retrofitted to the gear to remove any, or the vast majority, of accidental activation. A small timed delay allows the user to brace their body and get into position to move.[/indent][color=0071FF][sub][b]Background[/b][/sub][/color][hr][indent]"God save the King!"

Being the daughter to a British officer and a seamstress, Naomi had been allotted a bountiful life in the streets of York alongside her two older brothers. Whilst her mother wished Naomi to take over the family's business as a seamstress, she had dreams of being on the stage, regaling the patriotic tales of her father and other servicemen that had served in the Great War. Her siblings–Callum and Lucas–often picked on Naomi for showing such a patriotic attitude, given that the United Kingdom had just fought through a devastating and bloody war, but also because she was a woman, believing that it was a man's duty to be there for their country; not a woman's. 

Nevertheless, every time Callum and Lucas would take pleasure in bullying Naomi, their father would take his daughter's side, scolding both of his boys as he took great pride as a father in Naomi's backbone and loyal support for the country he had bled for.

By the late 1930s, the Great Depression was in full swing, but the United Kingdom has greater issues to worry about. The use of appeasement regarding the Third Reich had begun to fail and by the year of 1939, the United Kingdom and its colonies, allied with France, were now at a state of war. Among those drafted were the Robinson boys, while Naomi's father returned to service, leaving only Naomi, then twelve years old, and her mother in York.

Horror ensued from the letters her mother and the people of York had begun to receive from the front lines, but Naomi dedicated herself to keep the public in support of the war by using her gifted voice and patriotic spirit, yet it proved to be an uphill battle. France had fell to the German assault, and the Battle of Britain began soon enough after a disastrous retreat from what was left of the expeditionary forces. The skies above Britain were blotted with various bombers and fighters, like the Heinkel HE 111 and the Spitfire Mk I, promptly dishing out their hatred and anger for each other in numerous aerial dogfights and bombing raids. 

For Britain, this was deemed a dark time, but for the Robinson family, it was to be even darker. Naomi's father had been reported missing in action, and Lucas was confirmed killed in action in the fields of France. Despite the popular opinion of the British public continuing to supporting the war against the Third Reich, it also continued to take more souls from the Robinsons, following with Callum being shot down by the Germans over the London skies. Even then, barely a week after Callum's death, her mother would be killed by a bomb that had exploded on the family business whilst Naomi was away at a sleepover. 

Left alone in the world and with an infuriated passion to hold the Germans responsible for the loss of her family, Naomi was forced to wander the streets of York as a newly minted orphan. However, the Special Operations Executive were soon informed of a young girl with a fiery spirit in York, and quickly set out to bring Naomi into their fold.

Despite Naomi being under the age for active service, the SOE ignored the rules in her favor and for confidential reasons to implement her as one of their operatives. Trained on how to use both native and captured equipment and taught various survival skills, Naomi would later learn that she had a knack for easily picking up foreign languages, and could understand them with little effort. This ability and her age soon landed Naomi a place in Operation Lovejoy, using her youth to fool the Germans and to act as a universal translator for the agents as they delivered top secret documents and blueprints to the Soviets. 

While this mission was considered a success, it would result in the execution of a British prisoner of war. Nevertheless, the agents continued to progress with their orders, and left for what was once Poland to aid the resistance that was fighting German regulars that had occupied their homeland since the start of the war.

Joining forces with the Armia Krajowa, otherwise known as the Polish Home Army in English, the agents attempted to contact the United Kingdom to confirm the mission's success, but no answer would ever come. Multiple attempts to contact the home isles were tried, but neither the agents or resistance fighters could radio in, unknowingly aware that the United Kingdom had capitulated under a massive invasion by Axis forces. 

Believing that the Germans were blocking communications, the agents chose to follow orders as planned, and began to sortie against German installations and troops, where Naomi was given her first taste of battle as a soldier. Whilst Naomi followed the training she was given back in England through and through, she was known to be more ruthless against the Germans–even if they surrendered–in a nature akin to the various Polish resistance movements, as anger swelled in her veins against the soldiers that had killed her family. Naomi was ferocious, wishing the Germans to feel the same suffering she had felt all those years ago as a young girl.

However, not long after rallying with the Armia Krajowa, Naomi would begin to take an interest in a young resistance fighter by the name of Mieszko Michalek, who was only a few winters older than her. Despite the depressing state of the world, Mieszko–affectionately named Mie by Naomi–would always bring laughter to the agent, and some of the older veterans would often joke that the two were lovebirds. Whilst neither of the youths would admit that they were in love, the two of them would spend the time they were allowed to relax together by the fire or any other place suitable to be alone with one another, leading to plenty of rumors circulating around them. 

However, in war, anything can change, and began to do so by 1946, not long after the Germans introduced the first walking tank.

The development of the walking tank was a military wonder, devastating and incredible at the same time. A hellish experience would ensue for the resistance fighters and the agents, who were pushed further back towards the Soviet border. During one of these instances against such a beast, Mieszko was heavily injured, bleeding to death in Naomi's arms. Her perception of reality shattered as she held his bloody corpse, and Naomi was refused the chance to say her goodbyes as the Germans forced a retreat.

Taking his broken watch in a hurry, Naomi, along with the remaining agents and resistance fighters, were forced to flee the battlefield with those were still alive, hiding within the shattered villages and towns of old Poland. The group attempted to continue their mission, but sorties and sabotage soon became unheard of as the Germans began to whittle away who remained, until Naomi was left alone once more in the world, this time without comrades.

Thankfully, a stroke of luck had finally appeared for Naomi, who was certain her death was coming soon. A squad of VDV soldiers had landed nearby, tasked with clearing out a small village guarded by the Germans. Clearing house to house, the Soviets met Naomi in a dramatic stand off as the door was kicked in and guns were pointed. After a few words in broken English, and then fluent Russian, the parties eventually realized that they were allied soldiers to one another. Choosing to fight alongside the Russian soldiers, Naomi would help the Soviets finish the cleanup in the village. 

Once the Germans were dealt with, the Soviet officer in charge offered Naomi a ride back to their base, appreciative of the agent's help regarding their mission. Knowing it would be the better option than starving to death in the cold Russian winter, Naomi accepted the officer's offer and joined up with the Soviet forces, whom were leading the charge against the Third Reich on the Eastern Front.

Still, despite being battle hardened and fueled with a vengeance against the Germans, Naomi was just another nameless soldier of a country-in-exile. There were plenty foreign soldiers within the Soviet Union, and it was likely Naomi would be thrown in the meat grinder just as well under some unknown Soviet General's command. However, unknown to Naomi, she was a target of interest of the Russian inventor known as Atyre Ushaeke, who was working on experimental weapons to be used against the Germans. Due to Naomi's assistance in delivering sensitive documents to the Soviets in the past, Ushaeke used his influence to bring her into his fold.

Assisting Ushaeke in developing his inventions, it was seen that Naomi was extremely compatible with the SDJM-48. Offered the chance to field test it in battle, Naomi accepted, and was placed into Squad 914, a group of people armed with similar experimental weapons and gear, upon Ushaeke's word.

After all, Naomi still had Germans to kill, and she wasn't about to let her days end in a Soviet labatory.[/indent][color=0071FF][sub][b]Experience[/b][/sub][/color][hr][indent][color=0071FF][b]Basic Training:[/b][/color] 3 Months - Pre 1942
