Personal History
Background
Ian is a professional, married to the job, mission accomplishment is the entire purpose of his existence. Some older officers think Ian might be a bit young for the role as admiral even saying his lack of discipline he showed in the past might be bad for morale of the troops. But following fleet admiral Sir Firmus Piett he is ready for the job.
Ian comes from a simple mining family with both of his parents working on LD-14 mining station. Due to a accident happened to his father while working with one of the “save” declared Bretonia Mining and Manufacturing uranium mines Ian was forced to leave school at the age of 17 and pickup work in the mining industry to help taking care of the family. He never blamed his father but he always knew this was not where he wanted to stay. In the three years of hard labor in the mines he developed a lean and muscular body also the occasional fights with mine raiders and bar fights made him a mean knife fighter. He still carries the 12 inch curved knife his father gave him, altough Ian has the grey eyes of his mother and the dark brown hair of his father.
Ian is described as a pragmatic and imaginative man who doesn't give a crap about political concerns and values. Ian will never accept slander against the Armed Forces, the queen nor Bretonia. He's loyalty incarnate, the best friend anyone can have; but he's also the embodiment of vengeance, and if you screw him or the ones he loves over, your life is forfeit. The Armed forces are his live, although he does not always show it and he might come over as a asshole he cares for every man and woman from the armed forces. He is commonly an Officer and a Gentleman... or at least, tries to be one.
Military Career
Ian is by some BAF pilots referred to as a Plugger: In other words he is a defensive pilot, Ian manages to stay calm and collected even under continuing attacks from hostiles. By continually dodging and deflecting enemy attacks, he is a lot of times able to tie up otherwise dangerous foes in time-wasting sparring matches, and may even be able to sneak in the occasional counterattack. Trained as a bomber pilot Ian is obsessed to blow every enemy capital ship to pieces. Ian despises fighter combat.
Ian was promoted to commander in 814 A.S. and he was fine with it. The rank suited him well and he did not have to make the big decissions, but with the Gallian invasion he could no longer escape promotion anymore. In 819 A.S FA Piett told him not to whine anymore but to take up his responsibility and become admiral.
