[Felicity]

Name: Felicity
Callsign: KBB
Hair: Black, long
Eyes: Light brown
Age: 28
Height: 5'3"
Build: Short stack
Profession: MechWarrior

Personal Mech: Phoenix PX-3R-R (R for Relic) 'Kiara'

Since joining up with the Fortunate Sons the young woman introduced as Felicity has been quiet and cautious. It's up in the air whether she's shy or if she's just adjusting. She usually stays near her bunk outside of chow and shower time. However, she is sometimes sighted in the mechbay where she regularly visits what is surely an ancient battlemech. Toward the end of the journey she has been slipping out of her room a little more often and saying hello. It seems she has taken the time to learn everyone's names, so that's something. As for her, it's remarkably easy to learn one name. So far, Felicity has avoided giving out more than that, although it is surely known to Yuri and others. Why she hasn't shared it is a mystery. If the crew remains as bored as they are there might be a betting pool in the near future regarding her name. Setting that aside, the lady herself is quiet and nimble, yet polite and alert. Notably, she's also a short stack. Even with the baggy clothes she wears it's impossible to miss this. However, that only raises more questions about how she came to be a MechWarrior with her own archaic ride and her apparent military experience. While no grizzled veteran, Felicity has a level of confidence and familiarity with mech combat, interstellar travel and reconnaissance unit tactics that only a seasoned mercenary or Academy graduate would have. It's hard to believe she is either judging from her looks. A few of those with bunks near hers have whispered about what she might be hiding under her baggy clothes.

Of note to those who might have been paying attention, she has been spotted and heard practicing with a violin on her own. She also seems to talk a little more with Nora, although the Quartermaster is forever too busy for it to be more than a quick catch up. Surprisingly, Felicity sometimes volunteers to help move stuff, hold tools for the techies or to do other necessary mundane tasks at Nora's request. Nonetheless, like most of the Mercenary Company, Felicity is new to the unit and to everyone else they're working with. Hopefully she'll come to know everyone more when the mystery destination is reached. Maybe then a few of the questions surrounding her might be answered. Finally, for those who have tried interacting with her multiple times, Felicity might have come across as quite agreeable and willing to go along with others' stories or excuses. This could be a hint of a good nature, a sign that she's gullible, or a bit of both.

Jan is a tall, middle-aged man with a grumpy disposition interspersed with an occasional irritated curse or a feat of unwitting brilliance. Bearish in constitution, he's a scientist, not a warrior. When not absent-minded, lost in whatever inner world he has in there, he's keen on burning through the good things in life, in whatever order or concurrence. There's a hypothesis he can get drunk enough to become the heart of the party, yet experimentally unconfirmed.

Tall and well muscled Thomas can be an imposing figure when in his Light armor and armed. Honestly at a few inches over six feet, and with a well trained physique he can be rather imposing without it., at least to some. He keeps his hair short, better to fit under a helemt, and while he does maintain some facial hair, it's never allowed to get too long. His eyes are a shade of amber almost close to copper in color and his gaze can seem stern to those that are unfamiliar with him. A product of generations of mixed decent it's hard to pin down where his family may of originated, except perhaps from his last name.

By nature Thomas is a fairly affable young man, good matured and open. Though among certain company that can be as much of a blessing as a curse, as some don't tend to be as open about subjects as he. He is a soldier though, and knows how to shut up and do his job when it comes to it. His accent places him from the Marik Coomonwealth, though he has done a bit of sight seeing it seems and is familair and comfortable with space travel.

Eyes: Generic brown

Karlotta is no exceeding towers tall, but her large shoulders and soldier physique do help her look higher than she really is. Her acts and posture, stiff and straight, speak of toughness and confidence. She is a soldier, after all, and one who does not know how to pose as strong is half one.

She is frequently wearing her rugged soldier clothes, although not armor unless in service, having grown comfortable on them.

Under this facade, the woman is sociable and keeps a warm smile, although most conversations to a superficial level.

A small, serious woman, Gillian is usually seen in a tank top and briefs under her mechwarrior’s cooling vest, as if ready to jump into her mech’s cockpit at any time. She tends to keep to herself and doesn’t make friends easily, but is fiercely loyal to the few she has.


Her story:

Gillian was just a young trainee when the Fourth Succession War broke out and the FedSun blitz smashed through Liao defenses. Her class of teenage mechwarriors-in-training was rushed to graduation and then immediately thrown into the front lines, which were crumpling under the Davion offensive. Few of them survived, but Gillian was one of them, piloting a light scout mech for most of the war.

In the years since the war, Gillian drifted around the Periphery, signing on with one mercenary outfit after another to try and get by. None of them have been particularly successful. A new recruit to the Fortunate Ones, Gillian’s hoping this contract might be the one that makes her fortune.

He possesses keen eyes and a sharp mind and, while no scholar, he is knowledgeable in a broad variety of subjects.

His eyes are sharp always watching his surroundings even when relaxing. Ben is usually clad in full survival gear when on duty but straps down to a tank top and cargo pants when not working or doing mechanic work.

Ben joined up with the Fortunate Ones in the last six months as a support team member scouting and working on simpler mechanical problems to take the load off the main mechanics. Ben hasn't made many connections but also likely few enemies since he mostly keeps to himself. When not on duty he is often found either reading, working out, or tinkering with his weapons and equipment.
