With a black mop of unkempt hair, a trouble making grin, and a twinkle in his dark brown eyes like any minute he might decide to toss a grenade just to see how everyone reacts. His armor is painted sloppily, dark green paint covering the white armor in long streaks, and a bunch of modifications to make it stand out from a typical set of imperial stormtrooper armor have been made (such as holsters for additional tibana cartridges, and a sheathe for a vibroblade). On his thigh rests a black holster where a CDEF blaster pistol resides. On a sling across his chest is an Imperial issue E-11B, the weapon looking like one of the few well maintained parts of the former trooper's kit. His utility belt holds a variety of items, from a pair of grenades to an energy ration pack. He is rarely seen outside of his armor, but if he is, he is commonly seen wearing a long sleeved shirt and vest, with a pair of black trousers and black boots to accompany, utility belt and holster strapped on over it. He's rarely seen without a death stick either tucked behind his ear or in between his lips.[/indent] [color=cyan][b]|[u] {Equipment and Personal Belongings} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent] Imperial Issue E-11 Blaster Rifle CDEF Blaster Pistol Vibroknife 2x Thermal detonators, 1x Flashbang Modified Imperial Issue Stormtrooper Armor Imperial Issue Comlink Imperial Issue Utility Belt Imperial Issue Binders [/indent] [color=cyan][b]|[u] {Physical Abilities} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent] [b][u]Good Marksman:[/u][/b] "Be quick, or be dead!" During his time at the Imperial Academy, marksmanship wasn't exactly stressed, however they still taught it. In his time spent supressing local planetary rebellions though, Lucien learned that he had to aim well or risk death or injury. As a result, he spent his spare time working on his shooting and has become a good enough shot. [b][u]Extreme Physical Conditioning:[/u][/b] "First Division, up that hill, and make it back in ten minutes!" Stormtroopers are expected to be in tip top shape, as they are the spearhead of imperial assaults. As a result of extreme physical training and conditioning, Lucien's stamina is beyond your average human's limits, able to run for miles and stay awake for hours despite various conditions he might be in. This also included resiliance to physical punishment as well, as troopers are expected to remain an effective part of the unit, no matter the circumstances. [b][u]Indifference under fire:[/u][/b] "Stormtroopers don't duck!" Continously drilled into the hearts and minds of a stormtrooper is the tactics they used. A stormtrooper is the blaster of the Emperor, used to smash all that might oppose him. Thus, very little thought is given to death even in the face of the enemy. Blaster bolts may be flying past his head, things may be exploding, and people may be dying, but Lucien will not freak out. [b][u]Practitioner of the Knife:[/u][/b] "Next time, try using knives, works a little better for close encounters." As a trooper, the need for close quarters tactics is sometimes overlooked, after all, many believe that a blaster will win in a fight over a bladed weapon everytime. Lucien sees it a little differently though. Knives are effective in all close quarters situations, and take less time to bring to bear then a blaster or slugthrower. Thus, he has learned how to use a knife effectively in combat, but smartly only uses it in close range, or when he is out of other options. [/indent] [color=cyan][b]|[u] {Limitations} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent] [b][u]A Bit Unstable:[/u][/b] No one really knows why Lucien decided to frag his sergeant. They guy was upstanding. The general concensus though is that he just sort of wanted to do it, making him impulsive and unhinged in the worst way. [b][u]Poorly Cooled Weapons:[/u][/b] The Imperial weapons have never been the best at staying cooled while being fired, a side effect of mass production. Despite modifications, Lucien's blaster is still prone to overheating, effectively limiting his rate of fire, and sometimes leading to terrible mishaps. [b][u]The Violence of Action:[/u][/b] Lucien believes more in the violence of action then negotiating. If placed in a situation where there is a hostage, even one from their own crew, Lucien is more likely to shoot through the hostage to end the threat then he is to attempt to negotiate. [b][u]Uninspired:[/u][/b] Unfortunately, Lucien is not exactly what one would call the "imaginative" type. Some say the book of doctrine are only those who are utterly unimaginative, and Lucien likes to stick to the book. [/indent] [hr] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Personality} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent] Lucien is a loner type, not one for making friends with... well anyone. He enjoys his deathsticks and gets a bit angry when he can't get ahold of any, and he's not afraid to speak his mind. He prefers a direct approach and has a bit of mean streak, but when it comes down to it and he's in the wrong, he likes to make amends anyway he can. Not to suggest he won't cut your throat if you double cross him though. [/indent] [color=cyan][b]|[u] {Place of Origin} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]Lucien came from a backwater mining asteroid of no note on the outerrim. He was raised by a miner, and a space faring love his father managed to snatch away from the stars. He was raised on the mining station to become a miner like his father, and got lucky when he was old enough to join the Empire as a cadet. A Little recruitment drive came by to nab new young men for the army, and off Lucien went, completely forgetting even the name of his home.[/indent] [color=cyan][b]|[u] {Background} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]Little is known about Lucien, aside from where he came from and his years of service with the Empire. He's a nobody, who got recruited into the Imperial ground forces, and through hard work managed to make his way into the Empire's stormtrooper corps. He served with the Empire for about two years during that time, following orders, going to various planets, and helping put down several rebellions. No one really knows why Lucien did it, but the wanted posters say he fragged his officer, grabbed his gear, and deserted the Imperial Stormtrooper Corp. There's a big blank period of about two years there, where Lucien went off the grid. He did some time as a bounty hunter but found the work difficult and unrewarding. In the end, he settled on simpler work, being hired muscle. The Empire wasn't particularly worried about one rogue stormtrooper of pretty low rank, so they put a small bounty up. For a stormtrooper, being hired muscle was quite easy. Most of the time he got hired to look pretty and dangerous, and the armor he wore helped with the image. He never really earned a name, but he made a few consistent clients who were all interested in coming back. He wasn't super interested in that line of work, so when the opportunity came around to get out of the outerrim by signing up with the Mariner's, he took it (though he got the not so glamorous job of janitor, as muscle wasn't exactly in short supply).
