[color=B22222][h2][u][b]Unit Appearance[/b][/u][/h2][/color]
It has a smoother, more rounded appearance, designed to mimic older armor, as well as a more ornate feeling to the entire armor casing. On the back lies halves of a shield mounted on armored armatures. The blue tinted glass in the visor has been replaced with a red sensor bar, plus an additional one on top. Two spikes and a fin on top of the head holds the communications array.
        
[color=B22222][h2][u][b]Technical Details[/b][/u][/h2][/color]
[b]Accommodation:[/b] Single seater cockpit, just enough room for one plus space behind holding a bug out bag for survival situations. Even more cramped than the usual Tommy due to the screens being taken out in favour of a visor, or a plug linking to compatible helmets

[b]Dimensions:[/b] 18m

[b]Powerplant:[/b] Medium-output Wilberforce Reactor 

[b]Equipment and Design Features: [/b]
As a simple pattern or variant of the Tommy, it naturally shares many of the Tommy and the Tommy Commander features. However, it also strips a few unneeded systems from them like the hardpoints and compatibility with the Albatross system, as well the screens from inside the cockpit.

  [color=F0E68C][u][b]Compound Plasteel/Liten Armor[/b][/u][/color] 
The highlight of the design, a thin layer of plasteel and verogel over liten plate, thicker plasteel, then liten plate again. An expensive method to make armor, but the durability was such that it could withstand a staggering amount of abuse as well as literally make athmospheric reentry possible if needed, though not practical. Using more lightweight metals also meant the mobile suit was lighter overall. 

 [color=F0E68C][u][b]Modified Thrusters[/b][/u][/color] 
While it remained the same as the Tommy Commander's thrusters, it has been modified to fit two halves of a shield, both having additional thrusters in the inside, allowing for a higher top speeds than the base model. However, the shield's thrusters can only be fired in bursts, and only while the shield was undocked and on the ms's hands.

[color=F0E68C][u][b]Reinforced frame[/b][/u][/color] 
Utilizing the same frame as the Tommy commander, it has been upgraded to feature more power in the joints, to facilitate movement and dexterity in it's limbs.

[color=B22222][h2][u][b]Weapons and Combat Capabilities[/b][/u][/h2][/color]
[h3][b][u]Handheld Armaments[/u][/b][/h3]
 Any weapon the Tommy can use, it can also use, though there are weapons that are requisitioned by the family itself.

[color=F0E68C][u][b]Maxwell's Maschinenpistole "Custom"[/b][/u][/color] 
Fire 200mm gyrojets loaded from a 50 bullet box magazine. Only barrel assembly is plasteel. The short barreled machinepistol was otherwise lightweight compound materials. Designed by a crazy uncle who decided gyrojets should both be explosive and fired rapidly. Considering gyrojets were bullets with propellant inside, these were prone to explode now that theres actual explosives in front of it, and the electric feeding system may jam with another bullet still in the chamber. However, the entire weapon is very very lightweight, with the bullets making up the bulk of the weight. 

While it works however, its a terrifying weapon, blasting any unarmored targets apart, with even heavier armor suffering from the weight of the bullet and the subsequent explosion, which if it doesn't get through the armor, fouls up joints, exposed parts etc.

Freya's particular model had a small chain at the grip holding a small metal bear, hence the custom part of the name.

[color=F0E68C][u][b]Needler Maschinenpistole 1[/b][/u][/color] 
One of the first few models designed for the Archduke of New Berlin's orders and another option for the MS to carry. There were a few other models designed, but this one was named number 1 at the Archduke's request. Rapid fires 50mm bullets with high powder loads leading to a larger casing overall. Small pistol design, with low recoil, higher penetration and low accuracy at range as well as lesser power overall at very long range. A single bullet penetration probably won't stop an ms, unless it hits a vital part like the pilot, but sheer volume of fire will shred targets apart. 

[h3][b][u]Fixed Armaments[/u][/b][/h3]
The deployable truncheon as well as the system for it and the grenade system has both been removed. 

[color=F0E68C][u][b]•30mm Vulcan x2: [/b][/u][/color] 
Built into the head of the ms are a pair of multi-barreled vulcan guns, capable of firing 30mm rounds in deafening sprays. Though not effective against mobile suit armor they can be used to shoot down incoming projectiles or for shredding smaller more lightly armored targets. 

[color=F0E68C][u][b]•Plasteel Shield.[/b][/u][/color] 
Two halves of a plasteel shield rests on the back, protecting the back until deployed into a proper shield. Has verniers on the back to accomodate a charge. Front is painted with their house colors, the red cross on black field.

[color=F0E68C][u][b]Battlaxe x 2[/b][/u][/color] 
Liten hand axe that will crush armor just as well as it will cut it. Stored on the hips.

[h3][b][u]Strengths and Weaknesses[/u][/b][/h3]
 This is not a mobile suit for an average or normal pilot. While the visor or helmet feed system gives more spatial awareness, the downside was that the pilot then has to operate their controls effectively blind. Utilizing the onboard OS or accessing the diagnostics becomes problematic considering one has to look out of the visor to do so. One has to be intimately familiar with their controls, and what every button does and where every control was located to even begin piloting it. A few systems was removed as well to streamline the armor manufacturing process, such as the albatross system, the cockpit being made smaller, and the inbuilt truncheon weapon. 

Once one gets past those, one finds it an improved version of the Tommy Commander, with better armor due to replacing heavy materials with lighter ones as well as reducing weight by removing a few parts, though one could also say it lacked features the original had as well as their versatility. With a better top speed during the bursts of the thrusters, it was still prone to overheating when abused, as well as still having most of the drawbacks from the base Tommy. All in all, it was not a significantly huge upgrade from the base Commander model, but performs quite well in what it was designed to do. 

[color=B22222][h2][u][b]Technical History[/b][/u][/h2][/color]

When the pirates first attacked, the first of Freya's bloodline piloted the first mobile suits. Unsatisfied with the armor, her father took to jerry rigging their MSes with armored plates. The second generation MSes were still little better in her father's opinion, and many a family reunion had him grumbling about the paper thin armor, and inadequate weapons. Her mother was not amused, and after an extended time of this threw her hat at him and told him to just "make one your damned self". 

Like a bolt of lightning, or hat, the idea struck him finally, and he went out to requisition a request, and with her uncle Maxwell, designed a suitable replacement, or pattern to the commander type Tommy. And with that the "Schwartzschild Pattern" was born, though many would just call it the axe Tommy or Tommy wings or whatever variant they had on the two most distinctive features it has.

Her uncle however, had the dubious idea of making guns that fires exploding bullets but faster and better than the rocket launchers or recoilless rifles. The result was the machine pistol firing explosive gyrojets, which was prone to errors and exploding itself, had enough merits for her father to try and adopt it. 

Both combined, formed their now iconic look as the Schwartzschild family's mobile suits, with their distinct outline and performance at close quarter battles.[/hider]

[color=bc8dbf][h3][b]Physical Appearance [/b][/h3][/color]

Tall at around 182cm or around 6', with a statuesque form and built, she was never seen without the traditional military garb her family have adopted outside of her home or really casual settings. With the peaked hat, military saber, and a standard pistol by her side, her golden hair and form is unmistakable for those who knew her. She carried an air of dignity when she walks, backs straight and striding with a purpose.

[color=bc8dbf][h3][b]Biography:[/b][/h3][/color]
Her family was security during the mass exodus, and they had been security for long after that, sallying in conflicts that would threathen the empire. Her grandfather and father was among those who commanded the fleets to combat the pirates, and they had flew against them even with the odds stacked against them with their bulky and slow ships, buying time for the researchers to make a mobile suit to combat the pirates. They considered themselves true Martians, loyal to the Empire, and fought against those that would destabilize it. 

Her first debut in public eye, after being homeschooled in private, was in a military school, giving a speech during an election for the school president. 

[color=fff79a]"All Humans are pigs! Base animals, looking only to sate their desires! Born evil at their core!"[/color]

She had held her hand up in a sweeping gesture. Man made rules to keep their desires in check, therefore she will make rules to keep the people in the school in check, and in turn uplift them from being lawless animals. It was a simple concept for her that she tried to convey in her speech, but not one most of these easy going noble sons and daughters appreciated. A more timid looking girl was voted as president instead, with Freya receiving few votes. It was clear the timid girl didn't have it in her to keep the rules, and so the higher ups discretely pushed her to get Freya as the vice president, who took to enforcing them immediately.

It was a valuable lesson for Freya. People didn't like rules, yet lamented when the rules were abandoned. The lawkeepers were often hated, resented without reason, thus then must they steel their resolve, and keep the law regardless of public opinion. Justice will be upheld, and those who break the laws were lower than low. 

Her path turned, inevitably, towards her family's roots, security for the Empire. Her family had long been the ones to keep the laws of the Empire, making sure no one, nobles, commoners, or outlaws, are beyond the reach of law. In theory that was, at least for those of noble blood. Her father had lamented all the politicking and subtle maneuvers in the background that was going on, though their position ensured most did not escape. Freya however, turned towards simpler problems that seemed as numerous as ever; pirates, criminals who fashion themselves freedom fighters, radical people who put poison in the populace's mind. Like a few members of her family did, she gathered a few men under her, acquired a light cruiser, and rushed out to fight pirates before her family even noticed she had everything painted in the red on black of their family. 

She dealt with any lawlessness she found, not just piracy, but any rule breakers in her path. While that was rare considering she travelled most of the time relieving citizens from outlaws preying on their ships, it was not unheard of for her to capture petty thiefs and break their arms, or try to solve any other sort of crimes she find while walking around.

When Freya got word the royal family was moving towards Venus, she was naturally inclined to go there as well. It was certainly not influenced a little by a recent message from her father saying she needed to be there or she won't get her usual shipment of snacks, enforced on all stations. No, it was definitely all her sense of duty, and moral obligations to defend the Royal Family, even if her father was already there stationed in his battleship.

[color=bc8dbf][h3][b]Skills and Abilities[/b][/h3][/color]
[b]Refined Human:[/b]
A matter of course. She was amongst the bluest of blood, thus it was not unthinkable for her to manifest such abilities. Heightened mental and physical abilites when it activates.

[b]Military Training:[/b]
She was trained in all the usual military skills, tactics, maneuvers as well as more classical military training like CQC, CQB, handling swords and guns etc by the hands of her own grandfather. She was a good all around soldier, but it was not her main strength.

[b]Eye for Command:[/b]
Men under her, men who follow her command, tends to perform better under her. The Whirlwind Knights under her command was proof of this, though they were veterans of many battles so it was in parts some of their own skills as well. She has no eye for grand strategy however; a small platoon is the best she can command.

[color=bc8dbf][h3][b]Personal Items and Equipment[/b][/h3][/color]
[b]Schwartzschild Uniform[/b]
A comissioned military uniform, including peak hat and gloves, bearing the red on black colors of their family. The highlight of this uniform was the golden braid and the golden lionhead epaulette. Aramid thread interwoven with plasteel threads to improve durability and to lessen the need to iron it out every day. Helps that it provides a degree of protection against harm.

[b]Carried arms:[/b]
A simple steel sword, and a pistol. The steel sword was unusual due to the novel material, but otherwise both were unremarkable.

[b]ES Bodysuit:[/b]
The Emergency Space Bodysuit, woven from aramids and plasteel threads to keep it light and sturdy for space, layered with verogel inside the lining. Features an automatic collapsible verogel coated plasteel helmet resting on the back and shoulders when not in use, and two small 9' long canisters on her belt, to provide air for up to 4 hours, as well as allowing her to move in zero gravity. Has an emergency beacon and transmitter in the helm. 

The entire ensemble was wearable underneath her clothings and comfortable enough to be worn for long periods, and was comissioned by her due to her realizing pirate attacks do not care if you were ready with your pilot suit or not. While it has a design flaw that the oxygen tanks were both used for breathing and powering the small thrusters built into the tank containment system, it was also meant for emergencies only, thus it was written off as an acceptable flaw, though they did install points for larger tanks should there be any reason to attach larger oxygen tanks to it.

[color=bc8dbf][h3][b]Strengths and Weaknesses[/b][/h3][/color]
A strong individual, she has trouble connecting with other people. Her attitude, upbringing, and behaviour all tends to shove people away from her exerbating her problem even more. She can command them, kill them in various ways, but she cannot understand them, not when she's unable to close the distance between her and them. Logical to a degree, she has no qualms in sacrificing a few men if it meant winning the war for the good of all.

As a pilot, her abilities are all good. While not lacking in many departments, she also wasn't exceptional in any field, with many pilots considered as more skilled than her. A normal pilot who excelled in one particular field would be able to beat her in that field consistently. Thus, her most exceptional trait when it came to battle was her eye for details, her calculating logical mind, and adaptation.

As a commander of a small squad, however, she was likely to rip apart opposition that didn't outgun, outnumber, or outmatch them significantly in any way.
