Aspects
High Concept: Lapeidra, Terminator
Beneath the perfectly prepped and polished facade is a tortured soul. At the height of her fame, Lapeidra watched helplessly while her closest friends, family, and band mates were slaughtered by a pirate lance. She burns for vengeance, and has lived the past ten years of her life honing herself into a MechWarrior. While her new team may take her far and wide, Lapeidra is constantly looking for answers that will one day put her on the same battlefield with those pirates, where she will have justice.
Background Aspect: Scratch My Back...
As a popular singer and stage performer, Lapeidra earned substantial fame in her teens. She made friends in high places of culture and politics and they all wanted a piece of her. She learned how to play the game and get what she wanted in return.
First Combat Aspect: This Girl Can Take the Heat
At the Academy Lapeidra learned how to pilot a Mech and operate tactically, but that first live-fire engagement made her a Warrior. As her pulse accelerated she rode that razor's edge between exhilaration and terror, her mind issuing basic instructions for her muscle memory to execute. Her one-off mercenary lance prevailed, albeit against a smaller lance of pirate mechs. Now she knew she could do it; she had earned her seat in a BattleMech.
First Meeting Aspect: Jump Head First
A handful of skirmishes later as a solo merc and Lapeidra knew she would never have her revenge operating like this. She needed to find a team for the long term, a group she could grow with, build a bond and leverage a wider set of skills and experience. It was time to leave the local space of the Magistracy to find that team.
Trouble: There are a Lot of Crazies Out There
Fame is both a blessing and a curse. Though Lapeidra's days as a teen pop idol are well behind her, the Magistracy Military Academy tuned its entire recruitment and marketing campaign around her enrollment as a cadet. For a few years hers was the face of young MechWarriors across the Magistracy. She is often approached when in public spaces, and not everyone is merely a fan.
