Editing Dragons Wake (SWADE PbP)/Eric Andrews

[https://wiki.rpg.net/index.php/Dragons_Wake_(SWADE_PbP)#Character_Links Link back to Dragon's Wake main page.]

'''Private First Class Eric "Rocky" Andrews'''

Born and raised on a horse ranch in Houston, TX. Even as a young man he was rowdy and frequently got into fights. His parents enrolled him in boxing at a young age which only seems to have exasperated his talent to bash things.

Around 1940, him and his buddies got drunk and broke into an "abandoned" military base. Turns out it wasn't abandoned, it was being used for military experiments. He was exposed to some bizarre energy which resulted in his ability to transform into an earth elemental. Him and his buddies were caught by the local MPs, instead of going to federal prison he was offered to keep his freedom in exchange for being drafted and to use his powers to help the US win the war.

Has a very big ego and tough guy mentality. He's not the thinker type, nor would he have the patience for such things. As such, he excelled as a frontline infantryman. When his trusty shotgun Betsy isn't up to the task at hand, he takes matters into his own hands and smashes things until they stop moving''

After spending some time aiding French resistance fighters in Vichy France, Agent Iris was transferred to TOG to assist them with their efforts in the Pacific theatre, where her prior knowledge of the occult would hopefully come in handy.''
