Player: Overwatch
Character Name: Kaelan Eridani
Age: 22
Sex: Male.
Species: Hybrid.
Height/Weight: 5'6” , 125 lbs.
Social Status: UniClass
Physical Description: A mix of vulpine and feline, Eridani bears the physical body of a fox, with the markings of a his lynx heritage. His build is tall and thin, and while not as physical as others, he compensates with his driven loyalty to Unity. His long well-groomed fur is a silvery-gray color, with black freckle-like markings down is arms and legs along with the black and white accents on his digitigrade legs, paws, and face. His headfur is generally pulled back out of his eyes, and is a midnight black. A few prominent feline traits he possesses are his black retractable claws, bright aquamarine eyes, and keen eyesight in low light conditions.
Clothing:
Usually consists of white trousers with reinforced hems and plenty of pockets, along with a thigh-length button up coat, also white. The collar of the coat has two steel tabs sewn into the it, each stenciled with the wreathed flame. The buttons on the whole outfit each bear ornate Einheit-deco styled patterns, also made from stainless steel. A white tabard emblazoned with the Wreathed Flame is almost always worn, a symbol of dedication on Kaelan's part.
Formal occasions usually are not much more colorful, instead going for a more upper-UniClass cut. A high-necked embroidered jacket and polished leather boots (opposed to his standard clunky work boots) usually are the additions for fancy places, or times when simply wishes to make an impression.
When he ventures outside of the Toride, he adds a hooded white longcoat and light concealable armor rated for pistol caliber rounds, and knives. Worn at all times are two items, his prized white peaked officers cap (devoid of any medals, of course) given to him after his father's death in the Species War, and a pair of dogtags that serve as an Overwatch system. When in a life threatening situation, he may activate the small signal device in the dogtags, alerting nearby Ministers of the situation with a automated distress signal. Both were gifts from his father, to be passed to him should something happen.
While working, he generally keeps his tools in neat order, carried in a series of pouches attached to his belt, as well as a bandoleer-type layout over his tabard. Slightly obsessive about neatness, almost all of his possessions are kept clean, polished, and in perfect condition.
History:
Kaelan was born in 10 ECE to hybrid parents and grew up in the dark, frightening years in the height of the Species Wars. When he was still young, his father took up arms in defense of Einheit city, earning the title of Minister while his mother stayed behind to watch after their son. Although his father didn't survive the war, some would say that his steadfast determination and dedication to Unity was passed on to Kaelan.
Soon after he turned sixteen, he requisitioned his own two-bedroom apartment in the upper-quarter of the Toride, and recently received a job working for a conglomeration of like-minded business men called Codex Industries. His current assignment is the Ministry-sanctioned maintenance and installation of infrastructure within the Toride and Midcity. His specialty is Electronics, especially the telescreens that the Ministry uses for their broadcasts.
Personality:
Mostly a quiet individual, Kaelan bears the odd ability to become more focused and determined as the environment becomes more stressful. When things are more normal, Kaelan is quite friendly, highly approachable to his Comrades, but still maintains a air of barely suppressed pity and distaste among purebreds. Generally working standard hours, he spends most of his free time either fitness training, working on personal projects, or blowing off steam in one of the countless mid to upper class clubs. He frequently fantasizes about joining the Ministry, often reading historical accounts of the Species War and Ministry doctrine in general.

Tau-Haevat Corp. G7 - semi-automatic sidearm, fires 10mm bullets from a straight fifteen round magazine loaded directly forward of the grip. Used only when leaving the Toride. Matte white frame with black grips and magazine.
