-Char. Name: Ryco Adden Code name: Agrayal

-Species: Human

-Gender: Male

-Place of Birth: Red Cliff, Victory

-Faction: Loner currently working for Victory

-Role: Mercenary

-Weapons: All three of Ryco’s weapons are custom designed and made by him. His main weapon is his custom .50 cal. Bolt-action blazer Ra-01 “Wyvern” sniper rifle. He tends to use .50 cal armor piercing blazer rounds and even though bolt-action may seem primitive in Nova refuge he prefers it over semi-automatic snipers. The rifle holds 6 rounds at a time and each round has to be inserted separately since the gun is not made to hold a clip though there is a rack to hold 6 extra rules on the rifle. His back up weapon is his custom made Ra-02 “Star-fire” blazer sub-machinegun. Each clip holds 25, 9 mm armor piercing blazer rounds. Finally Ryco’s favorite weapon is his custom made Ra-03 Blazer katana.

-Bio:  Ryco has lived a very hard life. He was born in and lived in Red Cliff Victory for the first 16 years of his life. When he was 16 his family and he got passage to the victory colony of Vornaria on E’Oveai Rho in the outlook system. On the trip the ship they were on was attacked by a small squad of Mahlok. Even now 10 years later it is unknown what the Mahlok where doing in human territory. Ryco’s family was killed along with the rest of the crew and passengers on the ship and he was critically wounded. The ship was later found by a small Victorian Military ship patrolling the area. When the cruiser Ryco was on was found it was immediately boarded where they found Ryco lying half-dead near the airlock. Ryco was returned to the Victorian cruiser for immediate medical attention. At that time Ryco had to have his entire right arm, 3 ribs on his right side his left leg up to his knee removed due to the extensive damage done to his body in these areas. This made Ryco very depressed for a time because he could not continue his training in many different forms of martial arts (his favorite activity at the time), other forms of unarmed combat, and training with blazer swords. Ryco’s spirit was lifted tough about 6 months later when his grandparents moved back to Red Cliff to take care of him. Now with out the ability to do much of anything Ryco devoted his time to studying and became the top of his class by graduation from high school.

            After he graduated from high school his life was hit by another tragedy, he started to lose his sight due to some minor damage from the attack which was thought to be nothing. He was however able to find out of an experimental procedure that could heal his eye sight. When Ryco had the procedure done it had some unexpected and unexplainable side effects. It not only healed his eye sight but increased it and gave him better hand eye coordination. After this he also had cybernetic replacements for his limbs and ribs. These caused him to become stronger than an average human and also gave him back the ability to train with swords and unarmed combat. By the time Ryco was 19 he had gained back his skill in both swordsmanship and unarmed combat and from this he continued on with training in firearms from an ex Victorian scout/sniper. With his exceptional eyesight and reflexes from his martial art training he was able to become an amazing sniper. When He turned 20 Ryco made his custom weapons and armor and set off to be a Mercenary. His armor is made out of Nanoduranium with a thin layer of Kevlar underneath for additional protection.  Over the past 6 years Ryco has upgraded the armor with a recharging personal force-shield and an advanced targeting computer he stole during one of his private contracts. Ryco is currently working for the Victorians as a scout and spy in enemy territory. Ryco is very sensitive about what happened to his family and if they are mentioned he will go into a deep state of depression. He has always thought that his family’s death was his fault because he could not save them from the Mahlok soldiers.  Since the incident Ryco has had a deep fear of the Mahlok and if encountered when he is alone it will cause him to go into a severe state of shock (causing him to be captured a few times). He will avoid contact with them at all costs even if they are allied with humans.

-Personality: He has a dark and disturbed personality and due to the hard ships Ryco has faced he is extremely quiet and withdraw, and only speaks when necessary. He also has a lot of pent up rage from his hardships. He can be short tempered and will kill with little hesitation. He avoids contact with others except for when it is necessary.  All of this is due to the death of his family and the amount of hardships he has faced since their death.
