Bio: Feyvel had an exceedingly normal childhood in Vermont. Both of his parents were teachers, and knowing that money was tight, Feyvel joined the Navy Seabees rather than go to college after graduating high school. He trained as an engineering aid and spent five years in the service, with two additional in the reserves. Originally, Feyvel had planned to stay and have a career in the Civil Engineer Corps, but while stationed in Iraq he kept running into anomalies in his surveying and maps that his commanding officers were suspiciously disinterested in investigating. Once out of active duty, Feyvel started looking into the anomalies on his own—and discovering more—which naturally meant his path crossed with the Archivists’ sooner rather than later.

 

[Viper Actual]

Name: Brother-Legionnaire Indomitus, Centurion and Warrior Eternal
Race: Human
Age: Real age unknown, apparent age around mid 40s
Gender: Man, Blessed by the Undying Emperor
Nationality: The Greater Holy Roman Empire
Occupation: Artifact Reclamation Specialist & Demon-Hunter
Trait: Emperors Gaze - Blessed with the hymn of the Emperor himself the receiving individual of this sacred boon shall enjoy increased strength and determination for a short duration.
Gear preference:
- Legionnaire's Blessed Armor
- Aegis-type 20mm Automatic Self-Defense Weapon (SDW)
- Centurion Shotgun w. blessed incendiary shells
- Various assortment of blessed grenades and other explosive devices
- A Virtus-model blade for melee combat

Bio: Once upon time Indomitus and the rest of his bretheren and Emperor were but characters of a popular fictional alternate history book series written by a novice author in northern Italy. Said author was related to a history teacher whom in turn was an expert on the Roman Empire. Inspired by the history of old the author set out to create his own fictional universe- one where the Roman Empire never fell. He spent extensive amounts of time building his own alternate history, so much so that he failed to notice that he was able to naturally channel Focus.

Enter Indomitus; An icon of Roman superiority both as warriors and as a people this former minor character had come to life. Standing at 210 centimeters tall (without his armor) Indomitus is completely oblivious to the fact that he's a fictional character from a book and refuse to accept any notion or hint of that fact. Indomitus believes that he was sent by the Emperor on a sacred quest to secure a strange yet oddly familiar world from the clutches of a secret demonic incursion spanning the globe. Armed with highly advanced equipment on-par with most modern military prototypes and his stalwart faith Indomitus was recruited relatively quickly into the ranks of the Archivists whom he believes to be allies of the Greater Holy Roman Empire that he serves.

Unknown to him the Archivists more or less trick him into dutiful service by signing electronic messages with the name of his Emperor and by translating them into Latin, leading Indomitus to believe that he is indeed somehow communing with his spiritual and military leader. Thus the Legionnaire hold no doubts regarding his mission and will happily (and often loudly) carry out the orders given to him, more often than not including the procurement (= "reclamation") of anomalous Focus-related artifacts and objects.

[ANIMAL MOTHER]

Appearance:

Name: Skub! The Amazing Sentient Puddy.

Race: Puddy-Person (with a touch of human DNA).

Age: 12 years old.

Gender: Male.

Nationality: Unknown.

Occupation: Carnival attraction.

Trait: Slimeshifter - Skub!'s very bizarre and gelatinous amoeba-like body allows him to take the shape of anything he thinks of.

Gear preference: Skub! has no real gear preference, though due to being a scientist's "son", he has a fondness for more advanced technology.

Bio: The product of a mad scientist attempting to create the strongest soldier in the entire world, but was unfortunately crippled by a realistic budget. Skub! entered the world at the bottom of a container tank as the chemical byproduct of several experiments that were neglected to be cleaned up properly. Though instead of this mess of chemicals being tossed out, the scientist in charge had a brilliant (at the time, at least) idea; why not recycle that sludge as part of the super soldier program he's desperately trying to find funding for? The result was an astounding, brilliant, excellent, and amazing failure. Not only did the end result barely qualify as a soldier, it barely even qualified as a human as all it ended up doing was give human sapience to a pile of modified goo. Enter Skub! proper to the world where he had no desire to kill, he didn't understand orders properly, and found better company with the birds and creatures of the woods outside than his increasingly frustrated creator. Upset by this unforeseeable setback, Skub!'s creator ended up pawning him off to a circus sideshow just so he could at least make some money back. It worked out well for Skub! in the end as he enjoyed the company of his fellow freaks than the cold laboratories of which he was born in.
