Physical Description

He was not always interested in fitness, he spent much more time studying, which led to him being diagnosed with obesity at one point when he was a child. Only when he began fitness as an adult and joined the army, did he improve his physique, achieving a marked body but not hectomorphic or hypertrophied.

His eyes are light brown, it matches his skin, which is light in color with slightly brown tones. As for his hair, he wears a neck-length black hair style, sometimes grazing the tips of his ears. The rest of his appearance is that of an ordinary Lianjia.

He has a peculiar scar on his right arm that crosses diagonally, the product of an accident as a child.

He is trying to get more facial hair.

His natural voice is high-pitched, at one time he was mistaken for someone younger because of it. In the service, he uses a deep voice to refine in the Marine Corps.

He is curious, he does not have a distinctive scent, but he dedicates time to his personal hygiene, like some daily baths for example, making him not someone who smells bad like other marines.

Cybernetics

Personality

Gustav is inherently driven by a profound desire to assist others. His strong humanitarian instincts make him an exceptionally generous individual, always ready to lend a helping hand to those in need. To Gustav, performing acts of kindness is not only a display of respect but also an embodiment of civilized interaction. What brings him the greatest joy is the knowledge that someone remembers his assistance and endeavors to reciprocate.

A kind, gentle, and poetic soul, Gustav is open-minded and possesses a remarkable spirit of sacrifice. Despite having faced challenges in the past, falling victim to both malevolent individuals and his own fantasies, he has matured and now approaches life with consciousness and reflection. No longer deceived, he finds solace in the vivid imagery provided by his own imagination. The lens through which he perceives reality is intricately filtered by his desires, earning him the moniker “A wake up dreamer.” While he takes pleasure in introspective conversations, he maintains a realistic awareness of the world around him, balancing the roles of both realist and dreamer.

Gustav is susceptible to bitter disappointments, yet he navigates life guided by a set of moral principles. His sensitivity and receptiveness to unconscious currents define him, as he strives to align his reality with the dreams that occupy his thoughts.

History

Gustavs mother is a member of the Lianjia ethnic group, and like many siblings in times past, she emigrated to the modern cities that Nepleslia offered, in this case, Funky City. It was there where for still “strange” reasons, she would have a son with an ID-SOL, who in the words of her mother: “He was different.”

CHILDHOOD

Gustav was born in YE21 in that city, and at first his childhood was very fun with his father; However, when the little boy became aware of his life, that ID-SOL became very disciplined, upright and grumpy, beginning the classic story of a dysfunctional family, beatings, infidelities, abuse, etc. Mother and son were affected.

In the year YE30, he began to attend Elementary School, especially one where privileged children with fair and honest values went; But even there Gustav was a very “innocent” boy, not to say naive, he suffered disappointments and bullying due to his obesity, of which even his father was ashamed. It was during those years, where he made trips to his mother's homeland, where the Lianjia lived, very calm and beautiful rural places that for Gustav were a place of peace and sometimes surreal, he appreciated it.

However, when the massive invasion of Nepleslia by the Mishhuvurthyar occurred in the year YE32, he became a refugee with his mother. His father ID-SOL disappeared after being sent to the front, an event that was satisfying for Gustav, like freeing himself from a great weight, but it was not the happy ending he wanted; He had only heard about war in stories and school pictures, he never believed that he would live through one, and see how cruel the vast universe can be.

ADOLESCENCE

After Reconstruction, he would return to Middle School in the year YE34, a school that was now filled with juvenile delinquents, leftovers from the war. Gustav felt anxiety during the first year, but the next, he decided that he would not be like that again, he wanted to be strong, and he found that strength that he needed, maintaining the “light” of him in a place of much darkness and violence. His mother constantly supported him, she praised him for being someone very peaceful and with good intentions, in a city and culture full of people who turned to violence. Gustav loves her very much, he constantly says that “If there is a heaven, and when I die I don't see my mother there, then God never existed.”

ADULTHOOD

It was a stage of maturity, he better understood the reality that surrounded him, the history full of violence and death that his nation had, and the way in which he got there. He still had no goal in mind, except a dream of peace and stability for his people and his nation. He quickly entered Kennewes University as a future lawyer. He still kept his kind and humble personality intact, but with a touch of cunning. There he met other races, some with whom he formed good friendships, such as the Elysian or Qaktoro, particularly attractive to him. However, he hated how many races saw him as someone “aggressive and wild” because of all the bad reputation his nation had in the galaxy, when he was the complete opposite.

His life took a new turn during YE38, during a vacation trip in colonial Nepleslian lands, when the “RED Forces” began new attacks against the Empire. During one of these attacks, several civilians in a village were injured and killed by missiles fired, where Gustav happened to be, who was taken to the hospital, where he would be hospitalized and unconscious for a long time.

When he woke up, it was YE39, several parts of his body had cybernetic implants, due to the damage he had suffered. He received somewhat shocking news; His mother was alive, but she had made a great financial expense to save his son Gustav, university was no longer an option… they were in crisis and with some very serious debts.

MILITARY

Angry, Gustav left the hospital immediately to reorganize his life affected by violence. He did not want to see his mother work for great Lords like the Lianjia did to pay his debts. He was tired of war always ruining his life, he needed something, a quick fix.

He recognized that with such implants he could take his chance in the army, the pay could compensate temporarily, so he decided to join in the year YE40. Many times his mind weakened, he felt that he could surrender to the rigorous training, he did not feel part of that nation, nothing was as he wanted, but he had to do it for himself and his people.

KUVEXIAN WAR

In YE41, life would again bring him another war to live through, but this time, Gustav was prepared to face it. The essence of him was still alive, now reinforced by a firm and determined attitude, with determination, and everything granted by the army to confront the aggressor. Gustav fought in the defense of the western border of the empire, against Kuvexian mercenaries. However, during the skirmish he learned of other various attacks that occurred in colonial areas of Nepleslia, and later of the victims who were settled as in any war. It turns out that, a month later, Gustav would take a break to attend the funeral of his mother, a victim of enemy attacks. Until then the war would end for Gustav, not participating in any military conflict again to this day.

PRESENT

The navy gave him enough tools to sustain and protect himself, including the opportunity to have protected others from imminent attacks, but he does not feel indebted to the state, he does not have that feeling of “nationalism” because he simply considers that said empire is a fallacious government full of chaos, with factions that cause internal and external wars, a place without peace. He works well with his colleagues, in a serious and disciplined manner, with all military orders, but he has not established friendly relations with anyone.

He wants to gain enough money, possessions, or influence to then retire somewhere where he can be free from all the chaos and violence that his nation provides, perhaps on some other planet or perhaps… faction?

In short, in Nepleslia you don't live, you survive.
