Armas Laine
| Mercenary Company Leader, Alive
|
|
Appearance: Armas is six feet, four inches tall and approximately 114 kg in mass. He has a prominent conan chin, olive skin (Fitzpatrick type IV), blue eyes, dark rust-colored hair. He's very muscular and fit looking.
Description: It is an imperfectly kept secret that Armas is a godling, a divine being on the road to potentially becoming a full fledged god. Armas favors flashy clothing. Early in his mercenary career he often used layered ballistic armor, using both low-profile armored clothing and military-grade supplemental armor. While he still uses armor on occasion, he is far more likely to pick his clothes for mobility and appearance than protection.
Rank: Commander (OF-3)
Background: Armas was born in San Diego, California to a Maori-American mother and Finnish father. He was a poor student. Upon graduation from high school, Armas enlisted in the Marines and graduated from boot camp at Camp Pendelton shortly after the attacks on the World Trade Center towers in 2001. He spent the next decade in both the Marines and Army Rangers, before mustering out and traveling to Istanbul. He never advanced beyond the rank of Private in the course of nine years in the military.
Strengths: Trained in Stealth by the Wyld Goblins, notably excellent at manipulating people, Winter bloodline based around soul manipulation and auto-resurrection, Summer bloodline based around internal cannibal fleshcrafting, current owner of Amen, favored by the Ruling Dragon of Turkey
Weaknesses:
Equipment: The 14th Elder Artifact (the reforged Mere pounamu), Mahtigwess's Contract Artifact (a Buntline revolver), Leprechaun-made charms, two magic Mateba Model 6 Unica Auto revolvers

Camella Larosa
| Mercenary Company Officer, Alive
|
|
Appearance: Camella has straw blond hair, blue eyes, and frame that can safely be described as athletic. The majority of her left leg is a magic construct with a much darker skin color than her own.
Description: A Slider from a lower magic world, Camella has spent the past four months adjusting to life in Istanbul.
Rank: Second in Command (OF-2)
Background: Former member of the 9th Parachute Assault Regiment, Camella arrived in the bones of the earth below Istanbul on November 8th, 2010. She spent a week fighting her way out and arrived in the alley behind Armas's apartment exhausted and badly wounded. In an attack against Blackbeard she lost her leg, although she has received a new one from Wizard Khubiliai.
Strengths: Camella has no bloodline power, but is instead a once-in-a-generation example of a peak ability human, with near-perfect equilibrioception and proprioception. She has a soul quirk which grants her 108 eye-like sensors. Her excellent military training and natural ability allow her to excel in both the use of firearms and melee combat.
Weaknesses:
Equipment: A ritual blood charm which heals up to 12 non-fatal injuries on the wearer, a magic Walther WA 2000 once owned by Neonazis, and a pair of magic axes acquired through the Triad.
Notes: The ruling dragon of Turkey, Owner, has taken a personal interest in her. She works part-time as an instructor at Ito's Dojo.

Rank:
Background: Duke's actual name is Li Kui, and he is also known as "Iron Ox" or "Black Whirlwind." One of the legendary 108 Heavenly Spirits from the Great Chinese Classic Novel, "Water Margin." Duke was assigned to protect a "Dreamer" in the Amazon by Song Jiang (his former leader in "Water Margin") to keep Duke from making trouble seeking revenge for Song's death. After Armas killed the Dreamer, he talked Duke into coming home with him, where Duke drank literally hundreds of millions of dollars worth of magic wine, alcohol, and drugs from the stocks Florent Smets acquired. Armas later successfully talked Owner, the Ruling Dragon of Turkey, into sparing Duke's life.
Strengths: Conceptual Strength, Body and Soul Transcendent, Numerous Body and Soul Quirks, ability to produce vile corrosives.
Weaknesses: Functionally illiterate
Equipment: Soul-bound axes made of his own blood iron, a kameosa loaded with spirit wine, wizard-made glamour.
