Panther Flight[edit]
Ever since a legendary practical joke played in 3221 by the famous Sidereal prankster Righteous Sage Bride, Panther flight has suffered under an unusual quirk of Fate; as long as it is headed solely by women pilots, the Flight prospers. Male Celestials, on the other hand, tend to become catastrophic casualties soon after transferring into the flight. Nobody knows exactly what the tricksy vizier intended by this astrological crafting, but as long as it rules, no one dares cross it.
Foxtailed Natal[edit]
The merchant of pain
Rank: Lieutenant Commander
Callsign: “Smoker”
Caste: Eclipse
Age: 57
Fighting Style: Pistols, knives
Theme Song: "Five O'Clock World" by the Vogues
Panther Wing’s commander. Before giving it all up to patriotically join the Gunstar Defense League, Natal was one of the principle dealmakers in Claslat, at one point controlling as much as thirty percent of the nation’s shadow economy. Some people still whisper that her military career is all part of a singularly long-con.
Ghost of Heaven[edit]
The butcher of tyrants
Rank: Lieutenant
Callsign: “Whisper”
Caste: Night
Age: 26
Fighting Style: Silenced guns, knife, garrote
Ship: The War Crime
Theme Song: "Blue Eyes" by Within Temptation
Cold, silent, and remote to an extent that sometimes terrifies her Lunar wife, Heaven is possessed of an all consuming hatred for the minions of the Primordial Host. Granted, hating the enemy is supposed to be a good thing, but there’s just something unsettling about the way she giggles as she kills.
Kaja Samri[edit]
The silver-tongued cipher
Rank: Lieutenant
Callsign: “Grinner”
Caste: Changing Moon
Totem: Serpent
Tell: a fine network of scales around her mouth and eyes
Age: 79
Fighting Style: Martial Arts (Snake, Lunar Hero)
Titanic Form: Leviathan
Theme Song: "The Book of Love" by Rose Cousins and Rose Polenzani
Mated and hopelessly in love with Ghost of Heaven, the fast-talking androgynous Lunar tries (and often fails) to exert a calming influence on Heaven’s butchery. She ends up apologizing a lot. All she wants is for everyone to get along.
Alla of the Seven Bells[edit]
The earthy vizier
Rank: Lieutenant Commander
Callsign: “Mother”
Caste: Chosen of Journeys
Age: 50
Fighting Style: Martial Arts (Crane style, Sapphire Veil of Passion style [Lily is her sifu])
Ship: the Free Spirit
Theme Song: "Spoken Wheel/With a Wonder and a Wild Desire" by Flogging Molly
The rarest of the rare, Alla is a Sidereal Voidfighter pilot. Alla scorned the disapproval of her colleagues by risking her life in direct battle, all because of a mad, desperate, all-encompassing love of flight. Easy-going and freedom-loving, Alla lives for those too-infrequent moments when she can taste the Void.
Diamond-Tooth Jane[edit]
The Stainless Moonsilver Rat
Rank: Lieutenant
Callsign: “Betty”

Age: 38
Totem: Rat
Tell: Blue fur, pointed pink nose
Fighting Style: Chain-Guns, Martial Arts (Lunar hero)
Ship: the Stainless Moonsilver Rat
Theme Song: "Power's Out" by Flogging Molly
Big, bluff, and blue-haired, Jane is frequently mistaken for a Full Moon based on her size and demeanor. But the truth is, her passion has always been getting inside the guts of machinery and making them purr. She can often be seen in the repair bay, lugging around Voidfighter cores with her bare hands while in War Form, or drinking Terrestrials under the table after a hard day’s work welding. Just don’t mention her solar mate; it’s a sore subject.
Most Excellent, Resplendent, Sagacious, Beauteous, and Humble Kaneko Cain, Divine Autocrat of Harmonious Battles[edit]
the aptly named

Ship: the Majesty
Theme song: "Common People" by William Shatner/Pulp
Born to the demanding, plutocratic General Merela Cain and the Divine Minister Noi, this Infinite Ax Princess for her entire life has had everything handed to her on a silver platter. A silver platter which she then sharpened to use as a weapon to slay her enemies. She’s spoiled, but not weak.
She is always accompanied by the maidservant subroutine Nyar Sigma-11, 14th subsoul of Noi, Divine Minister of Curiosity, Research, Exploration, Innovation, Rebellion and Progress. God of Sleep, Recreation, Toys, Children and Non-Procreative Sex. Chief Regulator of the Element of Oil.
Terrestrials[edit]
Dabo Killin[edit]
The earnest young noncom
Aspect: Wood
Callsign: “Woody”
Rank: Seargeant
Age: 25
Fighting Style: Paired pistols
Theme Song: "St Jimmy" by Green Day
Killin would be the youngest Dragon Leader if not for Scarlet, and he desperately wants to prove his worth. He leads Panther flight’s three Terrestrial wings, and is the subject of much ribbing from the all girl flight. He hates his callsign so damn much, you have no idea.
