PHALANX RISING






The History of the Galaxy






Summary




Battle was on the horizon. The enemy was only a day's drive away. To many of the troops participating, it would be their baptism of fire; to many, it would be their first real battle. As the alarms were sounded, soldiers on both sides scrambled to prepare. Larus knew he was outnumbered; he had to employ cunning to decisively defeat the Republicans and tip the scale of power in favour of not only the Phalanx, but him as well. He spoke with Alphus Esquadrillo and Arnold Fliess. Fliess' Legions would work with Larus' to drive the enemy beyond the outskirts of the city whilst Alphus' specialised Legion would strike the rear of the enemy and secure the main road to the Capital if possible.

A day's drive away, Felix Dekker sat inside his commander's command vehicle, being briefed on the plan. It was an insane plan to drive deep into the heart of city with all of the armoured vehicles at their disposal. He had grown overconfident of his victory over the great captain. There was no way to save the entire army in the event that they are beaten, but there might be a way to save the lives of the men he commanded. He feared Alphus' skill in battle, but he knew Alphus was wary of him too. He had an inkling of what the enemy might be doing. He dispatched a quarter of the 4th Division to act as a mobile rearguard.

Nobody knew how the battle would turn out, but it was certain that history would look down favourably upon whoever was victorious. The fate of the Republic hangs in the balance.

@Felix Carter Not sure about this. Mind changing the name? I would prefer keeping the main commanders as OOCs, at least for now. Otherwise, it's good.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Name:Riley Owens
Age:24.
Sex:Female
Loyalty: Republic
Unit: The Republican Guard, 4th Cavalry Division, 3rd Battalion
Rank in the Military:Specialist
Role in the Military: Sniper

APPEARANCE
Riley stands at five foot six and is usually in combat fatigues, due to her position as a sniper she's usually in heavy camoflague or part of the enviornment itslef. She usually has medium length blonde hair and blue eyes and is of an athletic build.

PROFILE
Rather cold and to the point, Riley usually distances herself from closer relationships with others. She isn't one to get attached or to form deep connections with others. Dedicated to her work as a trooper she lacks ample time to indulge in social escapades. Relying on herself she is often found reading or by herself. The odd one out, she's neither liked or hated by most and she enjoys the neutral disposition.

The reason some theorize why she may be so distance is due to her head one approach to soldiering if you don't get close to anyone then when you lose them to war won't hurt as much. Potentially she didn't have as many friends as others did in the civilian life, probably because focusing on studies and work was more important than forming connections.

Something that would resonate with a careerist family such as the Riley failure wasn't really an option. Success banked on results and when you weren't creating results, you weren't doing anything useful at all. While unintentionally isolationist Riley focuses more so on succeeding, especially with the recent defeats Riley feels like she needs to redeem herself. She can work with a team but outside of that she is more into personal development than socializing, introvertism comes naturally to Riley.

BIOGRAPHY

Born into a military family Riley was brought up at a young age she knew that her family name meant something in the military. Her father was a military officer and raised Riley under a strict house regime, in result of this she did well in school but lacked a real social life as her father micromanaged every aspect of her existence. Until she met Felix who was this fucking goof ball that brightended up her day and was able to help her live a decent life during his early years as a teen. They would often go and fuck off school and go around town just taking in the freedoms that they had.

After they finished school both of them simply signed up to the Republican Guard, it was Riley's duty but at the same time Felix just coulden't leave her. So they went through and Riley ended up becoming a sniper instead of a scout, it was probably all the time she spent on the range with her father perfecting her skills before she even came into the military. While she serves now she feels rather lonely being in such a small unit but looking back it's for the greater good - right?
