Soldat Leo Sobec

Republican Army

Leo Sobec was once a decorated pilot with the Southern Republic's Iron Defenders regiment. Now he is prisoner 03-645-62, freshly transferred from Labor Camp 27 near Siwa Oasis. Sobec committed grievous crimes while serving with the Iron Defenders and was court-martialed. The Southern Republic will say only that he was involved in the deaths of several fellow soldiers. Sobec underwent experimentation while at Labor Camp 27, reportedly designed to curb psychotic tendencies. The results and exact nature of this program are unavailable to us. SobecÕs inclusion in this mission is due mostly to his piloting skills and the fact that he is utterly expendable.

Military Specialties

Sobec's military record shows him to be an extremely skilled Gear pilot, able to face overwhelming odds and succeed. He excels at close combat in and out of a Gear and rarely leaves an opponent breathing. Incarceration has, if anything, added to Sobec's effectiveness, apparently killing off any last trace of remorse he might feel toward his enemies. Missions of total destruction or assassination are his specialty.

Psychological Profile

Sobec is a potential time-bomb waiting to explode. He refuses to socialize with his squadron-mates and generally remains cold and almost unemotional. In the field, he attacks enemies (real or simulated) with a zeal that borders on insanity. Sobec is in enough control to channel his raging hatred toward designated enemies, but he should be watched with the utmost attention.
