Description

Concept: Armstrong is former Army Ranger, who served three tours in Iraq. He made 2nd Lieutenant. Graduated from West Point in 2005. Awakened on his third tour in January 2008, while on a Black Ops mission in Fallujah. He dissapeared while on this Black Ops mission, and is officially listed as MIA. He is 6'1, muscular, has grown out his black hair so that it is now shoulder length, and has bright, green eyes. Armstrong is 26 years old.

Background

Steven Armstrong grew up in a strong military family. His father and great uncle served in Vietnam. Before that, his grandfather served in World War II and Korea. He knew he would either become a Soldier or a Marine, but in the end, he went Army. Hooah! He entered Westpoint a few months before 9/11. He completed Westpoint in 2005, and joined the Rangers.

Paradigm

Armstrong ties his magic in with his Army training. His training and life as a soldier was his life. He understands his magic in terms of what he has taught in the Army and West Point, so in some respects, it tends to be more static than most. He understands correspondence from reading maps or reading GPS devices, as he tracked boggies/targets. The entropy was taught to him by his Euthanatos mentor, but it also had to have a connection with his military life. A military challenge coin represented both, a connection to Fate from being able to be flipped and being able to understand and see probability, and its special connection to military tradition.


Armstrong's American Euthanatos Creed (Based off the Army Soldier's Creed)

I am an American Euthanatos. I am a warrior and an agent of Fate. I belong to an ancient Tradition with responsibilities bestowed upon us from Fate itself. I serve the innocent and live the Chodona. I will always place the mission first. I will never accept defeat. I will never quit. I will administer the good death to all whose Fate it is to return to the wheel for rebirth. I am disciplined, physically and mentally tough, trained and proficient in my Euthantos training. I always maintain my arms and myself. I am an expert and a profesisonal. I stand ready to deploy, engage and destroy the enemies of Ascension in close combat. I am a guardian of Fate and Freedom. I am an American Euthanatos.
