Name:Mihial Rivers Alias: Cerberus Birthday:June 6th Age:25 Height:5'11 Weight:175 Genetic Type:Newtype Faction:Astral Confederacy Appearance ![]() Personality: Born into the Rivers Family, Mihial had a strong sense of honor, and duty planed into his mind from an early age, and was deeply patriotic to the Astral Confederacy. Because of these beliefs, and in order to avoid confrontation with his brother, he enliisted into the Confederate Military at age 18. In part because of his belief that a commander must lead through example, and in part to prove that he gained his position for reason beyond being the son of Duvall Rivers, he volunteered to join a front line unit, where he quickly became an accomplished pilot, and officer. Mihial was also quiet popular amongst his subordinates, as he never expected from anyone anything that he wouldn't do himself. However, his royal upbringing gave him his share of weaknesses. He was prone to arrogance, and overconfidence in the abilities of his men. While he was quick to reward success, he had a low tolerance for failure. He also subscribed to the idea of that humanity could only flourish under the rule of their more evolved counterparts; because of this, coupled with the actions of the Federation throughout his life, he had a deep disgust, and loathing of the people of the Earth. Biography: Mihial was born into the highest eschelon of Confederate society as the second born son of Grand Duke Duvall Rivers II, and younger brother to Zane Rivetrs. The day of his birth was marked with great celebration, parades were thrown in the streets, festivals were held in towns, and were televised events occured throughout the day, no less would do for the birth of a new member of the Rivers Clan. While this was essentially a propaganda event, it did much to ease the minds of the Confederate population, providing a much needed distraction from the usual new reports of Earth Federation aggression. Growing up, Mihial lived a privliged life, to say the least. He attended the most prestigious schools in the capital, and was given the best education the colonies could provide. As was expected of him, he excelled in his studies, and was particularly fascinated by the knights, and nobles from the days of old, inspired by their ancient sense of honor that had become absent in the modern era. While his father's responsibilities as Grand Duke kept his father distant for most of his life, Duvall was always careful to make sure he could take the time to instill the values, and ideals of the Confederacy into his sons, insisting that, as the inheritor's of Duvall Rivers I, it was their responsibility to see his vision through, and save mankind from it's own self destructive nature. While his father was mostly removed from his life, he, and his older brother Zane were close in his early life, looking out for his younger brother. While they lived a life of luxury, as sons of the Rivers Family, they were held to the highest standards, given the most difficult curriculum, and were always expected to excel. They were constantly pressured to push themselves further, to be the smartest, the fastest, and the strongest, and above all, to never be anything short of the best. Throughout all of these trials, Zane was there to mentor his younger brother. However, all good things must come to an end. Mihial was a sharp kid, and into his teen years, it dawned on him that his brother, ten years his senior, was the obvious next heir to the throne after their father. The rivalry created placed an enormous rift between himself, and his older brother, and a conflict within himself as well. On one hand, he had been trained his entire life to never accept second place, and he would be damned if he was to become a mere footnote in history. On the other hand, with his brother having a decade over him, his only option to overcome him was to sabotage, a dishonorable act he refused to commit. Given two deplorable options, Mihial following in the tradition of his family, forged himself a new path, when he came of age, he enlisted in the Confederate Military. While his father was opposed to the decision, there was little he could do. Not only was it within Mihial's right to join the armed forces, using his power as Grand Duke would make the Rivers family appear cowardly, and weaken their political standing within the international stage; and so, Zane was announced as next in line for Grand Duke, while Mihial began training as a Mobile Suit pilot. At the Academy. He quickly makes a name for himself in the academy, quickly surpassing his fellow trainees. Between his brilliant performance, and rumor that his family were one of the rumored Newtypes that were prophesied to appear amongst the space migrants, he, along with his brother, and a small group of hand selected men and women were called. to the Lunar Base Granada to begin extensive examination, to find any variation between these suspected Newtypes, and "Normal" humans. After months of extensive testing, ranging from brain scans, to blinded reaction tests, it was found that the Newtype theory was indeed correct. While Zane went on to continue to be groomed as the next Grand Duke, and the others would one day form the first Newtype Council, they found themselves with an interesting opprotunity when it came to Mihial. The research at Granada found that many of the traits of Newtypes would lend themselves well for a combat pilot. Capitalizing on this, a group of officers, and scientists approached Mihial with an offer: He would be placed in charge of his own ship, and his Mobile Suits would be outfitted monitoring equitment to gather data on the full combat potential of Newtypes. Mihial eagerly agreed, and was transferred straight to the Confederacy's elite Royal Guard, and was given control of a patrol group, consisting of a single Zanzibar Class, and two Musais. While many of the soldiers under his command secretly suspected that he was only above them due to his father's influence, he was quick to make them eat their words. Over the course of several years, he is quick to make a name for himself, both as a commander, and as a pilot, becoming an ace over the course of several skirmishes, while keeping the losses of the men under him to a minimum, earning him the nickname "Cerberus of the Confederacy". During this period, Mihial became a larger then life figure; Prince, Commander, Newtype, and an Ace pilot, he was a recurring figure in Confederate Military propaganda, held up as role model to aspire to, a role that he was more then eager to embrace. Following the infamous September 11th Colony Attack of UC 0081, an enraged Mihial, hungry for revenge, appeals to his brother, and newly crowned Grand Duke, to reorganize his patrol group, and integrate his vessels into one of the newly organized invasion fleets being organized in the vicinity of the moon. Believing in his brothers capabilities, and having the utmost faith in Newtypes, Zane is quick to approve, and on September 13th, Mihial and his men are transferred to A Bou A Qu, where they await there chance to take vengence upon the Earth Federation.
