| Name: Apolloyon Species: HumanAge: 25Faction: Project H&M but the GSU to a secondary degree. Alignment: Chaotic - appearance:
-------------------
StrengthsMarksmanship: Despite her original training being only in basic marksmanship, as to the average level of the GSU's soldiery, and original career as a tank operator Apolloyon's skills in marksmanship have increased drastically thanks to advanced training with H&M. She's no where near the level of a Spartan but she is a much better shot than your standard GSU soldier.Hand to hand combat: Again as with her previous strength Apolloyon was trained in hand to hand combat beyond the level of an average GSU soldier and does have the experience to back it up mainly due to a LOT of sparing practice and of course her military service with the GSU prior to joining H&M. Tank driving: While she may no longer actually drive a tank she does still hold the skills and experience she gleamed from such a career which proves useful when she's actually fighting against tanks, armoured vehicles or any kind of vehicle really. Weaknesses
Only human: Despite her training, equipment and of course her spiritual partner Apolloyon is only human. A bullet will kill her as well as any other man, women or child. As such she HAS to be cautious on the battlefield and play to her advantages.Equipment reliance: While her equipment is indeed one of her strongest assists it is by no means infallible. Running out of ammo, having her equipment destroyed, losing it and numerous other blunders can result in her reduced effectiveness. -------------------
Equipment
Sleipnir armour. - Sleipnir armour EVA variant.:
 Sleipnir armour's EVA variant is a version of the aforementioned armour created to assist in extra vehicular activity both on planets and in the depths of space. As such, in addition to what Sleipnir armour normally has, it is perfectly air tight with an on-board oxygen supply able to last for ten hours. It also has magnetised gauntlets and boots to assist in boarding actions and other EVA activities. Next it also has miniature thrusters built into the boots, back, shoulders and torso to allow rapid direction changes in outer space or other environments that lack gravity. Finally the helmet's visor is larger allowing the wearer a great range of vision which in turn grants them greater situational awareness...or it should.
Powers
- Stand in our way:
 Stand in our Way is , basically, Apolloyon's partner. Apolloyon, as part of project H&M, has been paired with a magical non-physical entity however in her case it is a little different. While she is paired with said magical entity Apolloyon has in fact had them around for her entire life but those are questions to be answered by her history. In terms of actual abilities Stand in Our Way is possessed by super human strength and speed easily able to throw cars around or out run a deer but sadly she can only be ten feet away from Apolloyon. Other limitations include the fact damage is shared between Apolloyon and Stand in Our Way..within certain limits. If you broke Apolloyon's arm then her partner would lack that arm but if you removed Stand in Our Way's arm Apolloyon her partner would be perfectly fine. Other than that Apolloyon's spiritual being can fly and physically interact with the world, provided they don't exceed that ten foot range, and can act independently within certain limits. These limits are that obvious threats like a punch or a bullet will obviously trigger Stand in Our Way to rush to Apolloyon's defence, even if she isn't actually aware of that threat herself, provided it is within a ten foot radius. Of course another limitation on this "unbreakable defence" is that the threat has to be something Apolloyon's partner can see or hear. An invisible enemy or a foe that makes no noise could, in theory, slip past the defences of Stand in Our Way. Of course one thing someone needs to keep in mind is that Stand in Our Way sees pretty much everything around them and is a lot more attentive than Apolloyon; although that's saying a lot. Lastly if Apolloyon is unconsciousness Stand is Our Way is essentially unconsciousness as well.Finally Stand in our Way has a unique ability beyond their enhanced physicality and flight: fire or more specifically pyromancy. They can produce orbs of flame and launch them at people, breath great bursts of flame over an area from their mouth and pretty much any other pyromancy ability one would expect. If that wasn't enough the clawed gauntlets Stand in Our Way is equipped with gauntlets sporting some rather nasty claws. Not only are these claws razor sharp able to cut through ten inch thick armour plating they are also highly durable able to resist high caliber bullets from sniper rifles without taking the slightest bit of damage. Of course they are only so durable and so can be taken down with repeated application of force. Of course given how Stand in Our Way heals along with Apolloyon herself.
History
Apolloyon's history prior to joining the UNSC's armed forces is pretty average. Grew up in a city, went to school, made friends and achieved average grades excluding the fact she often engaged in fisticuffs with her fellow students...a lot. She never specialised in any one area of her studies and was instead, as I said, perfectly average. Of course while growing up Apolloyon really had no issue with that. She liked being average, she liked fitting in and she liked having her friends of course the truth of the matter is she instead choose to maintain this average lifestyle: Stand in our Way. See since she was a young child Apolloyon always had to try and live with her "partner" and thanks to the influence of her parents was raised to go out of her way to hide her abnormalities. Of course while she's grown out of that attitude nowadays Apolloyon has still learned a great deal of self-control, especially over her powers, as a result of that. It was only when she graduated from High School and signed up to join the UNSC'S military that she came to terms with her abilities. At first she had simply been a perfectly average infantryman, or woman given her gender, content to be just that but then came one day where she was forced to use her abilities to save the day. It had all started as a simple training exercise in preparation for deployment to the front lines, as this was during the times of the UNSC's Demonic Crusade which may have ultimately been resolved by efforts not of their own doing but still. The training exercise went wrong as one of the trainees ending up with a leg crushed beneath a tank, some army recruits can be trouble makers after all, and he would have probably died there bleeding out from his injuries were it not for Apolloyon. Thanks to her Stand they lifted the tank off the recruit's leg and got him much needed medical care. It was fortunate somebody with a magical muffin happened to be around wasn't it? Thanks to this Apolloyon earned a recommendation but more importantly she was brought to the attention of H&M before they had, shall we say, spread their wings. This incident marked the first time Apolloyon used her abilities but as she fought in the Demonic Crusade she would find, or more accurately be force into, more and more situations demanding the usage of her abilities. The amount of success she had garnered on the battlefield paved the way for her to be fast tracked into joining the now defunct UNSC's mechanised divisions. From there her military career was incredibly stream lined as she excelled in her duties but of course that was when the war ended. The Demonic Crusade had, oddly enough, been resolved by somebody outside of the UNSC and then came the merger with the Alliance of Kings many months after that which effectively put an end to Apolloyon's active military service. Sure she did still serve but there was no longer anything to actually fight against. Call her a warmonger if you will but without an enemy to fight Apolloyon's heart was disquieted. She had spend her entire military career, and in fact most of her adult life, fighting on the battle field and so for everything to become a LOT more peaceful left her feeling disheartened. She simply was not used to a peaceful existence as even when she was a student at school fighting was rather a common occurrence in her life. It was fortunate that Project H&M, long little more than a research team, had been rapidly advancing lately and offered Apolloyon a job. The exact details of the job offer are unknown but skip forward a few months and Apolloyon had gone through H&M's stringent training regime, equipped with the first field worthy prototype Sleipnir armour and given her orders. Of course what those orders are nobody knows...but they obviously centre around advancing "the human species" in one way or another. -------------------
