Editing The Wonderbolts

Back to [[Northgame]]

The increasing use of airboats and gliders in the League has led to a certain ''esprit de corps'' forming among its aviators, with the crews of airboats and glider squadrons bonding through constant, close teamwork to form distinct identities for themselves. One such squadron is the 57th Icehome Gliders, informally known as the "Wonderbolts". A flamboyant, showy lot, they have nevertheless managed to accomplish every task assigned to them and have gone beyond the call of duty several times, even in direct contravention of orders, to effect rescues of stricken and beleaguered personnel. As a result, they have no small standing among the League military, and each of their lightning-bolt unit pins comes from a fund set up for them by grateful members of other units. 

The aviating members of the Wonderbolts are:

Maverick - Squadron leader, a young man with messy black hair. Freewheeling and doesn't look terribly disciplined. <br>
Iceman - Blonde, blue-eyed second in command who favors tinted glass lenses. Serious and no-nonsense; the ideal counterpart to Maverick.<br>
Goose  <br>
Viper - Dark-skinned girl with surprisingly twinkly eyes. <br>
Jester - Red-haired gliderman with a somewhat goofy-looking face. Seemingly has no ego. <br>
Cougar <br>
Wolfman <br>
Slider <br>
Stinger <br>
Sundown  <br>
Blade - Silver-haired girl with almost albino skin.  <br>
Heater <br>

Currently, they're returning from R&R aboard the ''Monumental'', which is hosting them for added publicity. They have a second-class air boat for tending and recovery operations trailing the ''Monumental'', but the airborne are primarily staying aboard the luxury cabins of the giant airship.
