The Vatan is a hybridization project undertaken by the nomads and a small sect of Royalist Forces within Gallia. Its purpose appears to be as a mindnode in the distant Gallic Sector, however its true cause is as mysterious as the Nomads themselves.

This is one of my oldest characters and ongoing stories. I formed the main character, Lucas Gerald, back in Shago's version of the GRP| and loved him ever since. He was a laid back man who simply grabbed the GRP gig because it was simple. He rose in the ranks and after a while ended up leading the whole operation as the Directeur. Things took a turn for the worse when the nomads decided to play with his mind.
While it started off with just Lucas Gerald, it climbed into this massive story. From law enforcing officer to drug addict, to GRP Directeur and criminal, and now something far worse. As is, the Vatan is past humanity. It has grown into a sizable mind-node within the web of the mindshare with new goals in mind.
Malachy is a weak boy from Leeds, forced to evacuate into Liberty during the start of the war. When his sister signed up for the Navy, Malachy followed suit in need of direction. Even though he succeeded in the role, the war back home was reaching its make-or-break point. With allowances, Malachy transferred to the Bretonian Armed Forces to defend his home directly. The war took its toll, the boy lost of his home he worked to fight for. Once his transfer contract was up, Malachy returned to Liberty. Perhaps he would finally find a home there.
So yeah, this is a little character I came up with when a few of us wanted to go mercing. But I would like to say a few things about Merlin.
Yes, he is a cat.
No, he is not a furry.
He can only say "Miaou", which is french for "Meow".
He talks through a voice translator when possible, mostly text.
Something else.
Basically, Merlin was more of a comedic character starting off. He fled from Gallia after being some sort of military experiment and found himself in Liberty. Not knowing anything else but fighting, he is trying to become a mercenary for the Navy and possibly settle down there as well.
