What if I've already written one myself? [spoiler]Name: Valkyrie-71 Class: Titan//Defender Alias: The Jade Wolf Race: Exo Model 67/A(F) Weapon of Choice: Heavy Machine Gun Notable Quote: "[i]Do not see victory as a probable outcome, but the definite end result. This will be your triumph.[/i]" [b]Pre-Guardian Awakening[/b]: Valkyrie-71 was among the first Exos to join the Titan ranks. In his early days, he held a role in the Sun Legion, participating in several battles to protect solar-system human hotspots (most of which failed), and the construction and completion of the Last City's impenetrable walls. Before his death, it is theorized he split away from the Sun Legion and operated a now disbanded cult or organization under an unknown title. It is known this group was kept to few members and commonly seen snooping around Rasputin bunkers and various other Warmind shelters, as well as some Archives on Venus and Mars. While the official job title will forever remain unknown, it is thought Valkyrie's personal armada was created to retrieve data kept in archives across the solar system. While most of his life after the Sun Legion remains unknown, his death was quite the opposite. His body was found several months after his disappearance in an abandoned skyscraper on a Venusian city. There were several encrypted audio recordings where he had made at least 3 to 4 entries. Each time he described a glorious and incredible surge of information before ending the recording. On his last audio log, he cut off mid-sentence and the audio played for a full 4 hours before automatically ending the recording, with no sound but the spiritless thunders of Venus' skies. [b]Guardian Awakening[/b]: Valkyrie-71 was revived several months before the events at the Black Garden. When his Ghost found him, his AI core was so full of information that his Ghost had to wipe his memory 64 times so that he could again become operable. His Ghost described Valkyrie as never actually being dead, but far worse. He was so full of information his mind core couldn't process all of it with such limited power, so his brain cut off all activity to all other parts of his body and did nothing but review archived information for decades on end. He wasn't able to freely think or feel, he was forced to process information too incredible and too spacious to download. His Ghost said that his mind started overflowing and deleting old info to stream new info, and that if he'd arrived not two days later, his mind would have literally deleted his conscience to make room. So his Ghost removed the non-essentials and stored whatever he could in his personal memory banks, things he thought interesting or resourceful enough to spare. Valkyrie remembered very little about his life before his revival, information that was mostly accidentally deleted. He remembered some elementary things, but the details weren't there. He did say he'd remember'd nine people he knew before death, people he'd traveled quite a bit with. After about a week of searching, he found the Exo friends he recognized essentially dead, their brains also overflowing and void of consciousness, thinking themselves away. He paid his respects (though he couldn't remember why) and destroyed their empty shells. After several weeks of Crucible, his noteworthy performance earned his a position as an Iron Lord, calling himself Lord Tulcan. He later developed the feeling that spending all this time training was time wasted and directed himself to striking the Darkness head on. He stepped down from his position as an Iron Lord and created the Blue Wolf Division, a Titan order. Valkyrie believed Exos to be more valuable in combat, capable of processing real-time data quicker and more effectively then an organic mind. Many saw this as an act of racism, but this rumor was largely forgotten when the Blue Wolf rescued a faulty raid crew from the Vault, primarily consisting of Awoken. The Blue Wolf's defining moment was the Battle of Light's Will, where a rogue terrorist organization of Guardians known as the 5 Star Anarchists attacked the City from within. This event was not in Vanguard protocol, so the Vanguard masters took too long to plan. The Crucible and Iron Lords could not send Guardians of the Crucible to fight, as too many of their participants were prone to spontaneous outbursts of violence in combat and frequent targeting mishaps, putting civilians in even more danger. This was either not in faction jurisdiction or of little relevance. The next thing down was Blue Wolf, who had hired steady handed quick thinkers capable of differentiating rebels from pedestrians. In time, the Blue Wolf had killed off all of the 5SA rebels, with some assistance from the Vanguard towards the end. Today, Valkyrie is rallying as many as he can in preparation of Oryx's arrival. He has also openly stated that he is searching Archives scavenging for anything he can find on Hive rituals, info on Oryx and Crota, Dreadnought sightings, and Warmind activation protocols. Quotes "[i]Sometimes a feel a sudden chill, a rush of cold. I can never be sure if it's the void pulsing through me or my brain cooling itself down after overheating.[/i]" "[i]Sometimes when I think about my life before I became a Guardian, I feel like a ghost. Like something without a past or future.[/i]" "[i]Rebels. No dignity. Attacking civilians simply for the cause of causing a ruckuss. And besides, model 345/D machine guns? If your gonna be evil, at least do it right.[/i]" "[i]No, I don't remember what triggered my overflow of information. But I remember it being magnificent, things only the machines knew, not known to the organic mind. If so, why would I share such things with you?[/i]" "[i]I simply grew bored of training. Iron Lord was a glamorous title, and leaving was a difficult decision. But in the end I simply grew bored of the Crucible, as I'm sure it grew bored of me. In some cases, Guardians who faced me would simply stop dead in their tracks and kill themselves to be revived away from me.[/i]" "[i]Why red? Because I never specified Blue Wolf Guardians had to WEAR blue. Some choose to out of respect, but the only prerequisites are a steady hand and steady skills.[/i]" "[i]I don't exactly trust our buddies over at New Monarchy. They're too flashy, but I suppose I can respect what they're trying to do. They're just going about it wrong. Its not like I can really say anything, one bad word and all our money is sent to gummy bear production lines in the lower portions of the City.[/i]"[/spoiler]
