Andrew walked through the empty streets heading toward the square, while once the city was bustling with people the streets were empty with the exception of the occasional combat form armed with a cudgel or a infection form out and about and when those showed up Andrew would just slink into hiding or fire the occasional burst from his assault rifle and turn tail. As he neared the town square the various flood forms became thicker and drove Andrew through an alleyway he tired about halfway down the alleyway and took a break to lean against the wall and check the roof tops and his six knowing full well that a avalanche of infection forms could pour out of an apartment window. When he was content it was clear he went to continue down the alleyway and then froze he heard what sounded like voices from around the bend, taking a dive behind a trash can and muttering a series of quiet curses when he landed on his hip Andrew peaked from his cover and saw a infected marine turn the corner her radio going off. "PFC Bennewitz of Echo Outpost, Emergency Civil Defence, ID 2517D13. This is a NA class broadcast on a multiple secure channels. Requesting backup to Miranda St. metro station maintenance room in the east bound tunnel. Squad is negative. Electromagnetic locks in place on door. Password is Echo Zulu." Andrew listened intently but then a reply sounded over her radio.
"Bennewitz, this is Private Mile, ODST. Transmission received, I am enroute to Miranda station" "ETA 20 minutes, Confirm?" Finally Andrew raised his rifle and put the marine out of her misery, from where he was at Miranda station was not far he could probably reach it in a hour or so if he walked quickly, checking the hud on his rifle for how much ammo he had the old man moved out.

I was thinking a defunct house of some sort that got jipped by the crown.Tis was my plan the entire time sir!Oops. I spoiled the surprise.
Tis was my plan the entire time sir!It works because i think the odds can be played a bit. A man far greater than i said "Never tell me the odds."Alright then. I'll let you in if the leader of the peasants is of gentle birth. Perhaps an unsatisfied knight that rose his village against the state etc. Deal? This way you can be considered somewhat of a noble house and still have your smelly villagers. By the way guys, in the spirit of the Roleplay, When it comes to PvP, how do you think it should be done? I was thinking the two sides figure it out together through PM (the outcome, the losses etc.) and then both post their view of the battle but with the same outcome and losses so it doesn't cause confusion. As for PvE battles, I think the one that leads our armies should deal with the outcome and losses on their own. But I'd urge you to be objective when it comes to losses as I don't want to see people constantly killing off their rivals from other noble houses. For example, if two houses are at feud but are forced to fight together against a common enemy and I appointed one of them the leader of the combined forces.
So...other landed gentry...crush the serf rebellion and then back to my stately home for some num nums and a few young fillies for our bandit friend.Or use them against your enemies.

Possibly get manipulated by different houses into dealing with their enemies, try to establish myself as a sovereign house/nation, be a dick by pressing my beliefs upon other houses peasants/working class, initiate unconventional warfare against the crown, have the leader be a scheming d-bag that takes advantage of civil unrest with peasants. And the list goes on. Basically they would be like a noble house but more far reaching but also ill equipped to deal with say knights or an organized military.
Name: Andrew Rackham
Nickname: "The Old Coot" " The Wise Bearded man"
Gender:Male
Age:62
Appearance:
Type of Character: Civie
Rank:N/a (Formerly a naval captain)
Armor/Clothing:He wears a simple ballcap with a faded symbol on it but if one looks closely the words "Elysian Comets" on it with a baseball bat and ball on it, a generic and faded white t-shirt is worn underneath a brown tattered grease and mud soaked jacket, a pair of dity gray slacks that resemble more of a brown than gray due to dirt and mud, and a nice sturdy pair of stolen combat boots.
Weapons: MA5B Assault Rifle 2 full clips, 3 full clips M6D Sidearm,
Equipment: Some stolen MRES and canteen, Bottle of scotch, and 2 flares.
Personality: Andrew is a man ravaged by the ghosts of the past to many he might seem insane but if one sat and listened to his stories they would realize this man is suffering from a strong case of PTSD and survivors guilt, but when he isn't blaming himself from the mistakes of his past or drinking heavily Andrew is a kind man who people can rely upon to be supportive or a ear that will listen, also the old man is incredibly smart and creative he was a brilliant tactician during the war and still is.
History: Andrew grew up in Elysium city on Eridanus II, the son of a corporate CEO and his mistress. Andrew grew up a secret child to this man only seeing his father a few hours a month, Andrew grew up envying the other family the life he should of had. When the boy reached the age of ten his father divorced his wife and married his mother and for the first time in his life things were complete and it seemed his wish for his father had come true.
As the boy grew older he expressed a desire to get out there and explore so he showed his father a brochure for a naval academy on Reach his father agreed and sent the boy to the academy. Within the academy the boy learned how to use weapons, he learned a variety of tactics, and most of all how to command a ship. Which interested the teen so much that he yearned to be able to sail among the stars in a ship of his own. Upon graduation the now adult Andrew was stationed upon the UNSC Basilisk and sent out to fight insurrectionists. When operation TREBUCHET rolled around a few years later Andrew was in command of a carrier named UNSC Tempest, his job during the operation was to deploy all UNSC personnel to his former home world so they could capture a high ranking insurrectionist and former marine Colonel Robert Watts. Their mission was ultimately a success and upon victory in operation Trebuchet, Andrew was promoted to captain.
Andrew was still in command of the UNSC Tempest when the covenant began carve a bloody swath through UNSC controlled space and in the second battle over his homeworld there was no great victory instead there was a bitter defeat as the Tempest and one other ship entered slipspace heavily damaged and Andrew's homeworld was glassed behind him. After the glassing of Eridanus II Andrew was filled became a shut in and he didn't speak but he had a renewed energy when it came to battle with the covenant going from battle to battle and either surviving defeat after defeat or winning the occasional victory under Admiral Cole.
During the battle of Reach, Andrew went above and beyond, deploying men and women to the surface of Reach and occasionally sending a volley of Archers at a group of covenant ships but he really shined when he used a group of ODST drop pods as missile platforms to launch SHIVA warheads at covenant ships but still Reach was a defeat and most of the fleet went on the retreat. The next battle Andrew took part in was the battle of Earth, it was here where the UNSC Tempest was split right down the middle and 75% of the crew were killed leaving Andrew with a large amount of guilt and survivors guilt.
After the second battle of Earth, Andrew became a wanderer he went from planet to planet looking for a permanent place to stay. Eventually during the resettling of Reach Andrew found a home in New Alexandria using the last of his money to get there he found he was broke and had nowhere to stay so he blended in with other refugees and homeless men from the war returning home to Reach. When the flood invaded Reach, Andrew survived by keeping to his training in the academy and being able to stay off the grid.
