Though he prefers fighting with his trusted energy blade, he isn’t stupid, and will use his rifle when the enemy is at a distance.
Due to his skills, he is often sent on Special Ops type missions, ones that target the enemy force’s heart and mind, rather than its body. Though someone else was always the leader on these missions, it is known that their success was mostly due to the efforts of Foster. While he is not really a “frontline” soldier, he is still often seen encouraging his men in battle.

He was rescued by his squad, and he now bears a dislike toward Jade, but also a certain amount of respect for her. At that time he was but a mere soldier, but he soon rose in the ranks and became an officer.

Short Biography: Justyn Larkon was born with all of the qualifications of an Enomeg, and began training as an Enomeg from his birth. Although lacking in what Saber-Scorpion and Raven had in hand to hand combat, Justyn made up for it in sniping. Though perhaps the best sniper in all of Xarkon, Justyn never made it through the tougher parts of Enomeg training. Despite this, Commander Lars saw the value in him as a sniper. Lars began a Spec Ops section of Xarkon just for Justyn. After several missions Justyn earned the nickname DeadEye for his quick and efficient kills with his trusty sniper rifle. Since he's a rejected Enomeg, he's "better" than most of the Xarkon army, but not nearly as good as the real Enomegs. Deadly loyal to Xarkon, DeadEye would without a doubt give his life for the good of Xarkon. He feels most calm when on the field, looking into his target's eyes through his rifle's scope.

VICTORY
The second most powerful nation of Terra Nova is Victory. Their government is a representative democracy. The leader of Victory’s armed forces is General Rick Radcliff. They seek to “liberate” Mordark, or so they say.

Character Name: Ryan Arkanian
Creator Name: Ryan Stebbins
Forum Name: Ryan
Alignment: Neutral Good
Faction: Victory
Role: Commander of the walker army
Favored Weapon(s): Dual blazer knives, pistol
Short Biography: Ryan Arkanian was actually born in Xarkon, but he highly distrusted its government and disapproved of its policies. Under unknown circumstances, he was forced to flee to Victory, and his home in Xarkon was destroyed. Out of a desire for revenge against the Xarkonian government, Ryan joined the Victorian military. His excellent combat skills allowed him to rise quickly through the ranks, and he achieved fame as a war hero during a quick Victorian strike operation on the Lone Wolf Island Pirates (the final stage of the same pirate war that Rick and Grimm had fought in earlier). He soon was appointed the rank of Commander of the Victorian Walker Army. With the rise of the famous Saber-Scorpion in Xarkon, Grand General Rick Radcliff began using Ryan as his own Victorian version of Scorp. He gave him a special suit of armor and a special, solid-blue walker, making him practically a Victorian Enomeg. Ryan's skills were up to the task, though he actually disliked the fame it brought him. Though in private Ryan has professed to Rick that he is not the zealous Victorian patriot Rick claims him to be, the public still sees him as the embodiment of everything Victory stands for.

Character name: Xerxes
Creator name: Scott McMillan
Forum name: Xerxes_Fett
Alignment: Neutral Good
Faction: Victory
Role: Super-soldier
Favored weapons: blue energy swords, energy revolvers
short bio: Xerxes was born to well off parents in Mordark. His father, a former Xarkon military strategist and special ops, married a rich business woman in the City Core, where they eventually settled. Xerxes was schooled by his parents, his father teaching him military skills (both strategic and fighting) while his mother taught him the ways of business. Xerxes joined the Mordark Police when he was 18. But just after two years of being in the Police Force, Xerxes learned the truth about his parents. His mother was an Victory undercover agent, and his father was on the run from the Xarkon military with weapon schematics; the only thing that kept either of them from reporting their findings is that they knew they were being watched, if they gave up their secrets, Xarkon operatives would immediately assassinate them. They decided to risk it anyway, and sure enough, 14 hours after they sold the information to the Black Network, Grim Army mercenaries hired by the Xarkon military assassinated Xerxes' parents. Xerxes, using his resources in the Mordark Police, discovered that Xarkon and the Grim Army were behind his parents' assassination, and swore revenge. He joined with the Victorians shortly after that, and they saw his great potential. Victory was experimenting at the time with a super-soldier project that would be similar to Xarkon's Enomeg project but not involve stealing children at birth. Xerxes was enlisted in the project and given the special armor that Victory had designed for the super-soldiers. He showed amazing progress and the project seemed to be going well, but the Victorian government suddenly cut funding and cancelled the project for various political reasons. Xerxes still fights with the Victorian military, however, seeking revenge against Xarkon and Grimm's Army.
Xerxes has a strong sense of traditional (or what us on earth would call Biblical) morality. He believes in justness, not fairness, and only kills in times of war or self defense (in which times he slaughters any who are against him, rarely leaving survivors). He can actually be characterized as a Neutral Good/Lawful Neutral character, depending on the situation. He fights not for money (though he always considers it an excellent asset) but for what he believes in; which makes him fight with determination that surpasses those who fight purely for the money.


character name: Xicari Lemus
creator name: Cesar Campos Lopez
forum name:Iron man
alignment: Chaotic Good
Faction: Victory
Role: officer
favored weapon(s)twin shielded great swords
secondary weapons(if applicable):SMG
short biography: Xicari was raised in the middle class of Victorian society, but he later moved to Mordark. He has a perfect academic record and was also trained in the Mordark police academy. He was discovered to be a good fighter and brilliant strategist, though these talents were not made evident in huge battles, but in his service to the police force and commanding several anti-drug and gang operations. At 19 he joined the Xarkon Military Academy and graduated at the head of his class. After a short service as a soldier of Xarkon, however, Xicari decided to sneak out and go to his home nation of Victory to aid it with his little knowledge of Xarkon. Again he started from scratch and gained the rank of officer. Once his defection became known, Xicari became a man wanted by Xarkon. He is known to be a great a diplomat, this face of his personality is the perfect cover for his actually ruthless and very vengeful nature. He is kind when speaking to the nation's masses, promoting peace, but in times of war and battle, his personality changes. He has scored victories for his nation using any means necessary and discovering information with brutal interrogation techniques. For these reasons he can actually be viewed as having a mixture of a Lawful Good and Chaotic Neutral alignment. He isn't moved by honor codes, but he is a reasonable man sometimes. If any battle cannot be won, he will retreat rather than lose. Due to these quirks in his personality, he is known as being very indecisive and doesn't know himself very well. He is a mixed bag of feelings. Xicari has trained himself his own style of two weapon fighting and is trained very well in the use of ranged weapons from his experience as a soldier and a policeman. It might be an exaggeration, but he is like everything for the price of one, a jack of all trades. He also has contacts with the Black Network from his days of working with the Mordark police, and he sometimes pays for the extra rare occasion the Nework manages to steal technology or data from Victory's opponents such as Xarkon.

Short Biography: All his life, Xak Panchu had been under the influence of his Godmother and Godfather. His real parents, a medic and a technician in the Victorian Military, were both killed in a Xarkonian bombing run. He was then put into the care of his Aunt and Uncle, two mercenaries who acted like part of the Victorian Army. He began to learn from what they were doing by tapping into their computers. When he questioned his Aunt and Uncle, they began to teach him the advantages of their affiliation. They taught and raised him to be like them. At the age of 14, he personally murdered a squad of Victorian Police using his Uncle's blue energy sword. When the police heard of the incident, they assumed it was his Uncle, and arrested him. His Aunt died of a heart attack two years later. Xak knew what he had to do. Free his uncle and assist him in the ultimate downfall of Victory. He joined the Victorian Military at 20 years old, after attending fine Victorian colleges. He moved up through the ranks until he finally became an officer at age 24. Working from the inside, he requested to see his Uncle in private. When he finally got the chance, he told him of his plan, and how he, Xak, would finally get vengeance, free his Uncle, and kill their leader. He still continues to work from the inside, hacking computers, hiring mercenaries to do his bidding, while still appearing to have nothing to do with the crimes.

At a young age he enjoyed flying the family jet, and thus his father encouraged him to join the Aerospace forces. His exceptional piloting skills were appreciated by his superiors, but his attitude was not. Nevertheless, with the help of his father and the trainer that he hired for him, Harrier managed to climb to the top rank, Commander of the Victorian Aerospace Forces, the age of only 20.

The other reason was that he never, ever lost.

He was continually abused and insulted by his squadmates. One day, while on patrol, he snapped and killed every member of his squad using his bare hands. Achilles stole the officer's energy blade, then hijacked a freighter going to Mordark. After being refused entry into the Core, Achilles killed 16 policemen.

He was tortured many times into working for a certain group because of his past, but he usually escaped. Artyr was on the verge of suicide before Ariana found him. She saved him from certain doom. Artyr would normally have wished himself dead than rather live to remember another face of a person he would never again meet, but Ariana was different. She took care of him and treated him as if he were but a child, her own child. So Artyr and Ariana travel around looking for anything to do and usually finding it deep underground at a casino. Every night he thinks of the day she saved him. He thinks that if she dies, he will follow.
Ariana was trained from the time she could walk in her father’s village. They had lived a peaceful, secluded life until the Xarkon military cleared them out to make room for more housing and other things that need not concern her, as the guards had said. Her veil is a family heirloom given to her by her mother who now lays in the distant mountains. She wears it always to protect her family, and herself. She was forced to enter the dark Slums of Mordark surrounding the Core, before she made enough money running illegal activities that usually men operate. As soon as it became available, she bought an old ship known as the “Veil”. She traveled around the planet, discovering a doomed man upon the blank wilderness. She stopped and picked him up, cared for him and brought him with her to the old city; to the place where many of her people lived to show him herself. She cared a lot for Artyr, but they also needed enough money to survive. She cared little for the ways of the government, and more for its people. Plus, a grudge isn’t easily forgotten . . .

Faction: Loner
Role: Mercenary
Favored Weapon(s): Any Semi-Automatic Rifle Weapon
Short Biography:
Imbatur is a strange person as he will consider any job, as long as it accomplishes something, regardless of what purpose it fulfills. He is not lenient to anyone, he serves whoever pays and commands him until his contract is over. He is known to have had bad blood with the Black Network, but served under their payroll in any case. They attempted to assassinate him. The attempts failed. He still finished the mission.
What precisely he does with his money, is unknown. Some say he stores it for someone, some say he has no use for it. However, he doesn't seem overall driven by money. What he is motivated by is purpose. If he feels there is no purpose, then he does not need to work. He has turned his back to great monetary rewards over something simple as purpose. Most do not understand his enigmatic nature.
He is witty, and strangely conversational, though he is draped in armor that obscures his features. He doesn't speak a great deal, but he often ripostes against any potentially provocative comments. He does not get along with others well, though there are some who he's taken to almost instantly. Why the specific people, no one truly knows.

Short Biography: Aredjon Ebenezer Zorgon, 27 years old, has been an orphan almost all of his life. When he was only 7, his father was traveling in a transport craft, and pirates boarded it. The Xarkonian military, attempting to destroy the pirate’s ship, accidentally blew up the transport, killing Aredjon’s father. His mother had died a long time ago. Aredjon had always been fascinated in computers and technology, and he put his skill to use, becoming a hacker. At first he was only hired by small sources, and to do small jobs, but then he gradually became better known, and has been hired to do some very dangerous assignments.
He is the type of person who does not care about anyone else. All he cares about is how much he can get paid for doing a job. He uses people to get what he can, but will only do jobs that he feels will improve his status. He has some degree of “smarts” at keeping himself alive, and spends his money wisely. He hates the Armed Forces of Xarkon, and loves to hack into their network, if someone wants him to. He is very fast, and has good reflexes.

He also has a variety of hacking cards (computer chips that aid in hacking) and likes to use and carry an energy sword.

CIVILIANS

Role: Rich Core Businessman
Favored Weapon(s): Blazer pistol
Short Biography: Born to wealthy parents, Riddian learned what a valuable ally money could be. Emerging from the City Core Business School at the top of his class, his parents retired and entrusted their company, ITEC, to Riddian at the age of 22. With this computer business in his hands, Riddian managed to perform the unthinkable. He made the company even more profitable than it already was. Now 23, Riddian is the CEO of the wealthiest business in Mordark, and 7th wealthiest on the planet. Currently the company supplies both Xarkon and the Victorians with what they need. Riddian is not aligned with anyone, for what he is doing now proves to be the most profitable way to earn money between the two armies...
ITEC is the dominant computer company on Xarkon. They create and manufacture all kinds of computer, and some software. ITEC creates military computers (such as those that go in vehicles, spaceships, bases, etc), computers used to run cities, personal computers, and more. Currently, ITEC is the leader in the computer industry.
Riddian is well liked by most since he's not like the typical businessman you might meet. He's a kind man with a sense of humor who usually abides by the law. However, when it comes to Business his personality changes. He becomes a serious man who wants to get things done in the quickest and most efficient manner possible and doesn't like failure. Don't worry though, if you work for him and you screw up he won't fire you; just don't screw up again.

"Five" and "Six" were cloned simultaneously, and they served in the army for nearly a year... but eventually they turned traitor just like all those before them. They attempted to copy Grimm III's idea and steal some weapons from Grimm's Base, but they failed and had to run for their lives. Grimm managed to capture Five, and he tortured him ruthlessly for his betrayal. A few days later, however, Six managed to free Five from Grimm's base, and the two escaped to relative safety in Mordark. They now work together as independent gun smugglers.
