Gabriel "Cobra" Beckett - Background
Background
Age: 40
Gabriel was a high level officer in the Chi-Town favorite 6th Mobile Armored Company. He was rising star in the Coalition military and served valiantly in the Siege of Tolkeen. And then his world fell apart when his teenage daughter Chiani was discovered to be an emerging psychic.
The Coalition took Gabriel’s daughter for service in their psi-companies, against her and her father’s wishes. He tried to free her and was caught, and his daughter was executed for failing to perform up to standards.
Gabriel was crushed and furious. Only his fame kept him from being put before a firing squad. He was discharged and sent into exile.
Gabriel went first to Lazlo, where he heard of this newly established presence in the region called the Tomorrow Legion.

Re: Gabriel "Cobra" Beckett - MARS PCO (Ready for Review)
So I am just going to throw this out, some gms I have played with only allow the command edges to only effect troops under his command. Some gms I have seen relegate this to extras and not wild cards. I would hope no one here would do something so extreme, but I just wanted to mention it to you. At the very least you are going to want to be in a position of authority with the SET you join, to get the most out of the command edges.
Oh, lol, kudos on the background. " Remember the pain" is probably the 6th motto.

Re: Gabriel "Cobra" Beckett - MARS PCO (Ready for Review)
Glad you liked it I thought it appropriate.
I probably wouldn't end up playing him if I couldn't use the Command edges with my fellow PCs. I have plenty of other characters that could work.
