Mecha

Sukhoi Su-R17bis(KM)
As the Russian Federation crumbled under the socio-economic onslaught of the Union of Trans-Siberian Commonwealths, a secret plan was hatched to repel them militarily via the use of psychodriver-piloted mobile suits. One of the old machines for this program (which was a dollar short and a day late and never launched) ended up being piloted by Cosa. The fact that High Muscovy - the legal inheritors and only remnant of the Russian Federation - have not tried to remove it from his possession is completely not suspicious.

"Captain" Anastasiya du Lac

Player: 100thlurker
Age: 36
Origin: Military
Priorities: Skills, Attributes, Schema, Deus ex Machina, Mecha
Background: Anastasiya du Lac is a rather (in)famous war hero from the Hegemony of Russian nationality (and French descent) who fought as a ranking officer in the hegemonia's famed tágma tōn varángōn special forces unit, otherwise known as the Varangian Guard. Witnessing the Russian Federation come apart at the seams as a teen, she chose to flee down the Dniepr and join the all-Russian Varangian Guard, successfully lieing about her age. It was only after a literal chest full of medals and a promotion to the rank of dekarchos that the truth came out. Her story was spun into propaganda gold times in the skilled hands of the hegemonia PR machine.

The captain defected(?!) for unknown reasons. Many question the sincerity of this change of heart, and her sanity, given her that she has performed the Hegemony salute at inappropriate moments despite visibly struggling to restrain herself, often resulting in a media frenzy. It's joked that she's caused more damage to the G.33 by defecting than she has by fighting against it.

As a result of being traumatically wounded quite frequently throughout her career in the hegemonia's service, including one spectacular bomb incident only a few months prior to her defection, it's rumored one of her limbs is entirely prosthetic. It doesn't help that she insists on wearing gloves, something she noticeably did not do in the many publicly available PR vids from her youth, and seems to suffer troubling lapses in memory.

"It's a kopis. Do you want one? Head to the nearest recruiting office today. I'll see you there." *wink*

Sometimes wears an eyepatch. What's up with that?

HaHC-01-p-a akontistai
As the Hegemony's war efforts began to heat up, combat studies and hard won experience indicated that outdated, generalist heílotes was becoming increasingly ineffective even as a mass-produced second rate machine. A plan was put into motion to iterate the aging but quite substantial heílotes fleet into a family of cheap, mutually supportive specialist designs collectively known as the psiloi. Three variants have been fielded thus far: the toxotes with long range coilguns for mass suppressive fires, the sphendonitai armed with cruise missile launchers to destroy specific targets, and the stripped down light skirmisher akontistai. For such a large scale project much of the details were successfully kept a state secret until war hero Anastasiya du Lac unexpectedly defected in dramatic fashion by crashing one of the akontistai variant prototypes undergoing atmospheric flight trials into a hillside - and not a few windmills - in Dutch territory.
