the brigadier was one of the first victims of the c
ollapsing continuum. he landed in 19th century l
ondon where he had to learn, and quickly, the w
ays of this brand new, equally awful and wonderf
ul world. his home planet was filled with others li
ke him - creatures with deeper understandings o
f time and its intricacies, with capacity to minorly
control its passage - but he has not heard from t
hem since his fall. in 1902, he was picked up by
a government agent, interrogated, and finally tra
ined under the promise that he would serve the n
ation with his abilities. as a result, he was a key c
omponent in war efforts, using chronokinetic capa
bilities to manipulate time's passage and provide
much needed advantages to his forces. when the t
askforce was put into place, he was the only creat
ure that any of the ministers could think to head a
ion, with his clear abilities and loyalty to the uk.

✧ on the surface, the brigadier is cold, calcula
ting, and somewhat unforgiving. he is quick to
the draw, sometimes calloused, and is not ave
rse to pulling rank if it will provide him with w
hat he wants. conversely, though, once this fa
cade is chipped away, is a creature that wants
the very best for his team. when formalities ta
ke a back leg, he exerts himself as cocky, conf
ident, and overall rather caring for those he is
in command of. while his sympathies do not co
me often, they are important when they do - h
is need for the upkeep of morale and the reten
tion of control is down to somewhat vague und
erstandings of the human race. to those he see
s as a threat, he has much capacity for cruelty,
actions deemable as inhumane by some of the h
umans who are unfortunate enough to bear wit
ness to them. anything that gets in the way of a
ion, anything that poses a threat or attempts to
divide their team will face his notable wrath.

alekall and milo have had dealings with
one another in the distant past from wh
ich the latter hails from, being that the
y were both present at gallipoli campai
gn. from the memory of that, the briga
dier has a rather intense respect for the
medic. the events of the campaign were
horrific, almost lost to time. having som
eone to confirm that they truly happene
d is pleasant, though padrac believes tha
t he has changed greatly from that point
of his long life. he tries to avoid conversa
tion about the war effort, but bates serv
es as a poignant reminder of all that was
lost. still, he respects him greatly, and is,
in some ways, glad that the man was not
around to see the horror of world war two.

alekall hails from haskor major in the constellations of exotaur.
his race was one known for their intelligence. the primordials, o
r 'founders' of the planet, were creatures of great strength. in le
gend, they created the fabric of time upon a loom made of stard
ust. this is, of course, apocryphal, but it survives as the only exp
lanation as to why the natives of this planet (dubbed 'the hask' by
surrounding colonies) were capable of chronokinesis. the primord
ials faded, one by one, their life force gifted upon the planet and
its 'people', leading to yearly festivities that came to sate their sp
irits, which were said to linger in the whistle of the wind through
the rust-coloured leaves.

haskor minor was a mining planet, known for gems that had ener
gy-fuelling capabilities that went above and beyond any other kn
own resource. this became a point of contention between the ha
sk and triton iv, a neighbouring planet that was geographically cl
oser to the mining planet, and considered the gems to be their p
roperty. war broke out after negotiations failed dramatically. the
weapons of triton iv were capable of great decimation, boasting
the most skilled blacksmiths in the known universe - and perhaps
the cruellest, too. usually, they took the role of 'sponsors', provid
ing supplies to their chosen allies in the case of battle, which ma
de them all the more intimidating.

scrambling for a way to defeat the creatures, the high council of
haskor major consulted the final living primordial, who, using his
dying breath and the marrow of his bones, created a fleet of so-c
alled 'super soldiers'. twenty beings sprung, fully-formed, condition
ed for war. they were faster, stronger, more resilient - and, nota
bly, they didn't age. their skin was said to be made of steel, thei
r blood of pure chronon energy. of the twenty, alekall was numbe
r thirteen.

the fightback began, and things were looking excellent. the batt
alions of triton had no idea how to counter the ethereal soldiers,
and so, in a final gambit, they created the apocalypse device -
a sentient creature, laden with the powers of every weapon, rid
dled with every disease, capable of freezing a being into state o
f nightmare stasis with a single look. it had not been tested. it h
ad not been anticipated. it rampaged through the countries and
cities of haskor major, leaving ruins in its wake, and after four d
ays, there were no civilians left. alekall's fleet had been left wit
hout order, with no home to return to once the battle had been
won.

and it was - eventually. fourteen of the twenty fell in the effort a
gainst the apocalypse device, but eventually, when they arrived
in the capital of triton with its maimed and mangled head, they
surrendered. it was no victory.

the final six residents of haskor major left for new frontiers, usin
g their great capabilities to serve as protectors for worlds that c
ould carry the same - or at least a similar - legacy as their home.
that was how alekall found himself falling through the tear in th
e fabric of the continuum, landing in the milky way galaxy so far
from what would have been his home, had he truly been born th
ere. for now, earth will suffice as his designated protectorate.

alistair grew up in manchester with his mothe
r and father. that is the short version of the st
tory- the longer being that when he was ten,
his dad was arrested for aggravated assault, a
nd his mother, ever the dramatic, could not h
andle the rumours that went around their local
l haunts. they moved around excessively - new
houses, new stepdads, new schools that deano
would ultimately only get excluded from, and
juvenile behaviour seemed to come naturally.
he stole cars, shoplifted, vandalised - anythin
g that would give him a rush. at sixteen, he w
as arrested after a fight at a party got out of h
and. while incarcerated, he was visited by the
brigadier, who had pored over his case and so
mehow, somewhere, found retribution in all o
f his chaos. with his help, he was freed on the
condition he became an apprentice with aion.

✧ deano is abrasive, hot-headed, and generall
y a bit of a berk to those who witness him on a
surface level. his misgrient and oft juvenile be
haviour only bolsters these descriptors, but bey
ond the grand facade and the bravado, his 'goo
d old-fashioned mischief', as he would call it, is
simply a vye for attention from a boy who feels
ultimately rather inadequate - or at least, it wa
s. now, with his loyalties in aion, his personality
is put to good use as a distraction, an informati
on gatherer, or generally a guard dog when pryi
ng eyes peek in. he is deeply protective of his f
riends and, for the most part, his coworkers, an
d at heart, he is soft and optimistic for the futu
re that lies ahead of him, as dire as it may appe
ar. ultimately, he is charismatic, sometimes kin
d, and unfailingly loyal - but in the case that he
feels that he has been wronged, or worse - his f
riends have been wronged - the brute comes ou
t from hiding, vengeful and untempered.

if there's anything that deano isn't a fan
of, it's authority - and though bates doe
sn't necessarily exude it, his past and de
alings with the brigadier would suggest
otherwise. his somewhat meek dispositi
on makes him an easy target for alastai
r's more brash antics, though he has som
e begrudging respect for the medic. hop
efully, if he ends up needing medical att
ention, milo won't hold a grudge for his
incessant need to cause a palaver.

for most of his childhood, deano idolised his father. he was everyt
hing that he could have hoped to become - a local at his pub, a h
edonistic, pleasure-obsessed fool, a man who had a reputation th
at would have shaken the fear of god into anyone who dared to cr
oss him. in fact, his dad was the origin of the nickname - the first
'deano' in the family. his mother, on the other hand, found disdain
in his antics, thinking him nothing more than a stain on her reputa
tion. the childhood in the council estate was one that was littered
with fights for alastair, trying his best to emulate the behaviour o
f the man he idolised. he, in turn, received hesitant status as the
prodigy of his father, a perfect son for such a man.

thus, when his dad went to prison for aggravated assault, it shook
him. the man he so adored had been taken down. from that, alast
air took it upon himself to become 'deano'. he was young, but he u
nderstood what it meant. he began fighting, scrapping for what am
ounted to nothing more than the respect of a father who did not w
ant to see him from the across the tables at the visitation centre.

he and his mother moved from manchester to various different littl
e villages, an attempt by her to stop his behaviour that only proved
to exacerbate it. the new father figures came and went, most of th
em quoting deano's aggression as their reason for leaving, and they
finally found themselves in wales, in the back end of a forest that w
as rural enough to deserve its own word. it was isolated.

deano was fifteen when he met cadoc, a young man riddled with an
xiety, threatened by the 'rugby boys' at the local school, and genera
lly a rather sad case. instead of taking the baton and beating on him
the way everyone else did, deano found himself befriending the youn
g man, serving as his 'protector'.

they did everything together. no-one could quite put the two of them
together in their heads, couldn't figure out what drew them to one an
other, but it didn't matter. deano's behaviour improved. he, for the fir
st time in years, actually engaged in schoolwork, and in return, cadoc
was no longer threatened. the fight in alastair was reserved for lookin
g after his friend. cadoc grew more confident. deano was finally getti
ng the hang of acting like a real person.

he was sixteen when cadoc disappeared. off of the face of the earth,
gone. not just gone, but wiped. his house was abandoned, empty, his
name emptied from every database. his classmates had no idea who d
eano was looking for. he was, in all respects, dead to the world.
it drove him to the edge.

in an effort to search for him, deano attended a party thrown by one
of the boys that had given his absent friend trouble. once there, he b
egan to ask questions. to try to figure out why no-one seemed to know
where his best friend had gone, what had happened to him. it ended i
n blood, alastair throwing the boy out of his own kitchen window.

when he was arrested, he explained the situation to the police. he di
dn't truly think that he had done anything wrong - he was looking for
his friend. a friend, who, according to them, had never existed in the
first place.

the brigadier heard of his case through the grapevine, and managed t
o put two and two together. he visited the prison deano was being he
ld in and presented him with the facts: cadoc had been a victim of th
e collapsing space-time continuum. he had either been entirely wiped
or he was somewhere else entirely. when deano accepted this as fact,
without much else to base the occurrence off of, the brigadier propos
ed that he joined the team. 'you might find him', he had said. 'if you r
emember him, then it means there's a chance'.
with nothing else to lose, he took it. became an apprentice at aion, a
nd the rest is history.

reggie was born in 214bc to a veteran father and
nurse mother in what was then called belum, nor
thern italy. his childhood was, for lack of a better
word, unimpressive - his family was one of comm
oners, so they did not have much, but they got by
well enough. on his eighteenth birthday, regulus
volunteered for the republican cavalry, and at nin
eteen, joined the forces in the roman-spartan war.
this kicked off a military career that was cut short
seven years later, at the dusk of the roman-seleuc
id war, where he was knocked off of his horse, sha
ttering his tibia. it never healed correctly - and th
e shame of retiring before the ten-year threshold h
ad him drift from his family, finding a new career a
s somewhat of a nomadic beekeeper. it was fruitful
work, work he enjoyed, work that was not hindered
by his limp nor his newly-necessary walking stick. h
e did this for four years, drifting about, before som
ehow travelling too far down the stream, finding hi
mself in a strange new world, with vast grey landsc
apes and people who spoke in barbarian tongues. i
t did not take long at all for aion to pick up on a cal
l about a very distressed man shouting in latin in the
streets of cardiff, nor did it take them long to figure
out what had happened. this was three years ago, a
nd he has been under their ward ever since.

✧ ancient roman
✧ cisgender male
✧ homosexual
✧ human
✧ other

✧ reggie is a gentle, soft-spoken soul with an a
doration for music, the arts, and the simple act
of learning. in all honesty, he was not well suite
d to the climate of ancient rome, finding much
more solace in modern day. though he doesn't u
nderstand much of what aion does, he is driven
to the pursuit of enlightenment, invested in try
ing to find his place in a world that was not mad
e for him. he's often victim to imposter syndrom
e, aware that most those around him are highly
trained, suited for their roles, and he is simply d
rifting about, waiting for something that fits to c
ome about. otherwise, he has an excellent sense
of humour, innocent in its way, and despite his t
enderness, has picked up some bones of knowled
ge from his days in the cavalry. oft inspired and a
ppreciative of all that comes his way, the world h
e fell into feels more like a dream than reality - a
nd it can be difficult to pull him out of hazy days
that push this mental narrative. with others, he is
patient, curious, a certified people-pleaser, thoug
h can be prone to bouts of anger, frustration, and
rather stifling loneliness, especially on the days wh
ere confusion outweighs his inspiration. he can be
found at most times sitting outside, in a little wor
ld of his own, trying to put the pieces together.
