[ *  *  * ]
Name: Kael Aias
Age: 22
Biotype: Human
Eyes: Purple
Hair: Wheat Blonde
Height: About average
Favored Combat Type: Rifles
Handedness: Left for writing, but shows no failure of use in his right hand. It is presumed that he is in fact ambidextrous and merely favors his left hand, but he claims that he is left-handed.

Personality: Kael is a rather personable individual, albeit a bit on the overconfident side. Despite having average abilities, he is most known for a variety of teachers: Headmaster Nav, the late Obel Dallgun, Karen Erra, Laia Martinez, Freedom 01 and a gender neutral, culturally ambiguous instructor (the canonical GUARDIAN Trainee and later Instructor from Episode 2 & 3, hereafter referred to as Fagballs because I've been listening to too much Zero Punctutation) as well as a very vast knowledge of cultural arts and languages. Most of the languages he can't speak, due to a lack of capability to produce the right sound, or just things he can't quite catch are translated via the headset he is always seen wearing.

For some odd reason, large organic creatures with the exception of SEED disturb him. This may be due in part to the GUARDIANS unit he was in being utterly obliterated by Vil De Vears during the last stand against the SEED on Moatoob.

Skills: -Kael shows a mechanical aptitude as well as a knack for construction and architecture. He was creditted with the development of new type CAST parts for Kubara.

-Kael is a respectable melee combatant, albeit a bit sloppy due to the fact that he rarely sleeps.

-Kael's ability to slice into machines is nearly unmatched for a fleshling, at one point saving his unit by slicing a Grinna Beat and turning it on everything in range.

-Kael earned the nickname "Doorman" due to his demolitions skill.

Weaknesses: -Kael shows very flawed comprehension, due to all of the time he spends with machines.

-Kael's reasoning is impaired due to several blows to the head, as well as a lack of sleep due to his unit being utterly destroyed and being forced to fend for himself for a six week span after freshly being instated as a full-fledge GUARDIAN.

-Kael shows a single-minded determination. While useful in certain situations, in combat he tends to relentlessly beat on a single opponent, totally losing sight of other targets, or spends too much time slicing doors.

-Kael's neural damage is apparent in ranged combat. While using large firearms such as rifles, he shows no problems, but he seems to prefer a straight melee in order to keep the snipers covered. Conversely, because his hands jerk and twitch when put in a stressful situation, small pistols and machine guns fire randomly.

History: Kael grew up on Parum, raised by an architect and a weapons developer, his father and mother respectively. Construction came naturally to him, as well as destruction. He lived an average life, becoming a student at the GUARDIANS Colony to become a Guardian, later on going to Moatoob, Neudaiz and back home on excursions to broaden his knowledges of architecture and learn the art of combat more effectively.

Kael was unfortunately recruited far too late and ended up jostled around between teachers. He became frustrated, even moreso when the Mellvore incident killed his father, who was at a conference discussing the reconstruction. His mother, devestated became an alcoholic. Suddenly feeling abandoned by his mother's addiction, he stopped going home, sending money occassionally to keep his mother afloat and feed her addiction.

He was 19.

For the two years after, he did so, until his mother died during alcohol withdrawal after Kael flat out refused to pay for her to survive if she kept ruining her liver. Feeling a heavy guilt, he turned to wise-cracks and a false cheer in order to keep himself from feeling down. He immersed himself in his work to forget about things, eventually befriending several Guardian Operatives in his unit. All were killed during the defense of the beacon on Moatoob, leaving him the sole survivor.

At 22, he was approached by Laia Martinez, his former instructor and asked to act as the leader of small strike teams to perform purifications of HIVEs. Feeling particularly lacking in self-preservation, he did so. Due to his inability to coordinate, he simply requested that he be given five drones named Red Shirts 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 and went with that. While he still continues active duty, he seems to spend less time in HIVEs and more time with real Guardians, trying to reestablish his view of what he was fighting for. His mission was protection, not genocide.
