His father was a general for the Vanalor Army. He was forced to follow in his footsteps and trained for almost the whole of his life until he ran away to the wastelands.
Ron Perlman Voice: War...War never changes.
From the first time one person used a rock to bring down another to conflicts spanning galaxies? Was has been around and in all that time it has and will need people to fight those various conflicts. From knights riding the back of horses to fight for their feudal lords, mages calling down mystical powers on their nation's enemies, soldiers running across the fields of no man's land through toxic gas, to grunts and insurgents fighting house to house in close quarters modern combat, to the machines of war or the mercenary soldiers fighting over planets and landscapes light years away from the places of their creation. From the lowliest private fighting on the front lines to the highest ranking generals commanding the battles from above. For those fighting for king and country or simply to line their own pockets. Those who are fighting as we speak to those who have long sense put down their weapon and settled as best they can into a life of peace following their service either with a conformable retirement or a dishonorable discharge on their name. It doesn't matter. This is the thread for those who have fought either for countries, ideologies, nobility, emperors, or companies. Soldiers, mercenaries, freedom fighters, rebels? If they have made their living fighting for a cause or just started to train to do so? Put your characters here.
There are some rules to keep in mind
- While this thread is war and conflict? That doesn't mean you need to be graphic in your details when you post. You don't need to go into depth about the number of people your character has killed in excruciating detail or talk about all the horrid things they did in the war. However sometimes those details do inform a characters choices and if that's the case and you have to talk about it? Keep it PG-13 for one and anything that could be considered sensitive? Go ahead and throw it behind a block like so: Example text.
- In a similar vein as the above? War crimes do exist, yes, terrorism exists, yes, wars fought for evil reasons have happened, yes, BUT try your best to be smart about your characters you post here. For example not only is the above rule important but don't, say, imply your character had a hand in a real life war crime or horrible thing that someone or someone's parents/grandparents might have actually lived through. Just, try and keep other people in mind when posting characters who might be considered...problematic for lack of a better word. OCs who have fought in an active or prior real life conflict is fine just don't tie them to say an actual genocide.
- You can either post your characters one at a time or as a group in an OOC post. Post options are perfectly valid. Just try not to dominate an entire page with your characters. So if you are posting a few on their own? Try to only do three at a time and let more people post in the interim before you go back to going one at a time.

History as a military shock trooper (charge forwards, destroy important things, keep doing it until everything's good), got captured and worked with said captors since they treated their prisoners better then his 'allies' treated their soldiers.
emmy's been in armies/fights/wars quite a lot. unsurprisingly, it's pretty easy to get your way in a battle if you're a god who can turn into a huge dragon
she preferred to work in her own special operations group where she was the leader mostly because she doesnt like people bossing her around and underestimating her lol
she specialized in hand-to-hand, tracking, verbal negotiation, code creation, and like. huge fucking dragon stuff.
now that she's settled down and all that stuff is like centuries past her daughter sometimes is like "HEY MOM THIS SOUNDS LIKE YOU LOL" pointing to a history passage on the web or something
she's tried to erase her presence as much as she could though, because she prefers to not be outed as an immortal and god
edit: whoops double posted for some reason
Caph's technically ex-military as the generalized government in her wild is disbanded due to...well apocalypse. She does have a brother who still works in localized government. He doesn't have a TH yet, so I'll show her off instead. He's always on her back to join up with him and his crew but she's having none of it
Notoriously sadistic and cruel commander in a war against magical beings, lost his memory in combat and woke up after the war was stopped and both sides surrendered. Since he didn't remember why he fought (or remembered anything at all) he decided to quit, left the city, and (tries to) take naps in a quiet forest with some forest animals and deal with war flashbacks in his nightmares, while his former comrades in arms try to convince him to come back.
He use to be apart of the military, just a regular old army soldier. But he kinda whent awol, the world ended, all that kinda stuff.
Forgot I also have this guy other than loads of warfare androids. He's an officer in Russian Army whose designated duty puts him directly in regular contact with those androids.
He's technically retired, but he used to be an army general when his country was in the middle of war. He's since left the military for a teaching job, though.
A former royal guard to her monarchy, forcibly retired after an assassination attempt, and now leads a rebellion against her home nation in a war for independence.
