Striker

Striker was once a normal girl that aspired to help her family. Born to parents who worked hard but had little opportunity and struggled financially, she hoped to help them and give back. As such, as soon as she turned 18, she joined the military, specifically the Navy.

As a female-presenting person, she had to claw her way into the Navy. Overlooked and looked down on, she had to work twice as hard as her male peers. But she was an ambitious person, too stubborn to know when to stop. So she aimed for the top, for a group that, at the time, would not accept her-- the Navy SEALs. Women were not allowed to become SEALs, but she pushed at the boundaries, fighting to rise above her ranks. She trained and studied religiously, living frugally to send money back to her family as she did.

Then, on December 3rd, 2015, the ban on women joining the SEALs was officially lifted. Elated, she threw herself into training. As she already pressed on the boundaries, she was ahead of anyone else interested and worked hard to pry her way in. And after 3 grueling years, she officially became the first female Navy SEAL at age 25.

While her family congratulated her, they worried. She was going to actively be in danger now, placed in dangerous situations. Little did they know, danger was coming to them.

She had two deployments. She worked as a part of a team, did exceptional work, and was able to have some time to visit her family. Unluckily, or perhaps luckily, the end of the world happened while she was on her home turf.

There was nothing that could be done to prepare for nuclear warfare. Only to pick a god and pray…and pray, she did, for her family.

Somehow, she managed to survive, among others. At first, she tried to band together with others, making a small unit and trying to keep a community alive. However, that made them a big target, and although she had been a SEAL, the others were not. There was only so much she could do on her own. Not to mention, her military ways could be found as abrasive, and those who rejoiced in no longer having a government did not trust her.

Eventually, she found it best to try to strike it on her own and try to find her family, if they survived. Any trace of them…

Now, only 4 years after becoming a SEAL, he is a very different person. His ambitions are no longer as grandiose and his ability to work with others has degraded. He’s only known as Striker, a man who speaks little but gets work done. His origins are as unknown as his face.

When Beacon came to Earth-111, they expected for the people to be dead. Not for a man in tactical gear to press a gun to the back of one of their heads, demanding lowly to know who they are and how they got there. He had seen them come out of a portal and was not about to just let them go.

After the contacting team de-escalated, Striker came to learn about Beacon. Although now a lone-wolf, he was intrigued to hear about another version of Earth where nuclear fallout did not occur. Maybe his family…existed there? Maybe they still lived? However, the deal was sealed for him when mention of a wish was made.

Maybe, finally, he would know what happened to his family.
