---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES (Required: 2 Weaknesses Minimum) :
(+) Crafty: Mercurius knows how to make do with little, which means he often goes into missions with the bare essentials needed to succeed. If he has to he will use anything in the vicinity.
(+) Knife fighter: Missions requiring silence and subtlety means the Mirialan often relies on knives to finish a target quietly, meaning he is quite handy with a knife in close quarters and can easily cut someone apart with little effort.
(+) Man of many disguises: He has a knack for blending in and getting close to a target or objective, using a wide variety of disguises when on recon or the hunt. Most notably disguising himself as a florist when he was tasked with removing an anti Mirialan council speaker from public view. Killing is Mercurius's trade, and his skill at killing targets has seemingly earned him a reputation as being seemingly omniscient.
(+/-) Dirty fighter: Fairness and fighting on even terms with an opponent is not Mercurius's prefered route, instead he likes to attack an opponent on unfair terms. Typically employing dirty methods if it seems like he is losing or needs to make an escape.
(-) Flamboyant and arrogant: Overdramatic and seemingly self assured when it comes to things has earned the Mirialan much scorn from his superiors.
(-) Promiscuous: Despite all the conditioning and training over the years, the Mirialan assassin has a particular weakness for women and typically can be found in a brothel or bar on some backwater planet when not answering calls for missions.

BIOGRAPHY:
**** ******* was born the seventh son of a humble trader from the Mirialan highlands in the early 8th century ABY, like many other Mirialans he grew up during the various wars that raked the surface of the once beautiful planet. His father killed by Primeval cultists, his mother and siblings dragged off into the night to await a far worse fate, the youngest son however survived by hiding in the tall grass outside the family home.
Left homeless by the war and penniless, he survived by thieving and committing petty crimes for the various gangs that emerged in the post war chaos as the military struggled to regain control; letting anarchy rule much of the planet. However he was soon caught by Mirialan soldiers who detained the boy at a holding centre for miscreants and other filth who sought to take advantage of the chaos. He was left with a simple choice, join the Mirialan army or facetime in prison. The boy chose the former and the rest was history.
Military trainers at the academy noticed that the boy had a knack for remaining unseen, in part to his background as thief in which he had to be silent and fast in order to escape patrols. He was selected for the Mirialan intelligence organisation which answered only to the council itself. The lad proved himself a valuable asset for the organisation in the wake of the Primeval war, taking on countless missions and hit jobs on enemies of the council, a dirty yet ultimately needed task if the now weakened planet had to survive.
'Mercurius' retained his job even as the planet changed hands from the defeated Dominion to the malevolent shadow that was the Sith empire, like many others in his organisation and amidst the Mirialan army he did not trust them. Yet, he still continued to serve the whims of the council up until the fated battle of Mirial when the rebels rose up in tangent with the SJO invasion. However it was not to be as the rebels were soundly defeated, with many thrown in chains and the rest fleeing off planet like a wounded animal to lick their wounds.
With the enigmatic Colonel Narses taking over command of the now reformed organisation, Mercurius serves the mysterious leader as an assassin and operative of the Siel Manta. Showing that the reach of the Colonel knows no bounds.
