A mop of black and silver hair tops Geezer's head, a development that only started in the last few years. He has a flat face and his wheat colored skin is weathered with age and the elementes. His pale green eyes are haunted, and his face is usually clean shaven though gray stubble starts to grow when he's struggling to keep going.  Ward is just above average height and has an athletic frame despite his 'advanced' age.

=Biography=
 
 
===Early Life===
 
 
Born and raised in the city of Hadrian on Virgon, Duncan attended one of the planet's many universities and completed training in Colonial reserves as part of Ward family tradition. He then joined the family business, which was a modest sized woodworking factory where they made furniture and custom orders for high end clients. His two older brothers were also working the business, so not only did Duncan not love the family business, there wasn't enough work to go around.
 
 
After his long term girlfriend broke up with him he traveled the colonies to 'find himself.' He ended up on Caprica a few years later where he witnessed the bombing of Maglev-23 by the Soldiers of the One. He joined the Virgon Expeditionary Fleet the next day.
 
 
===Fleet===
 
Ward was 30 when he joined the Fleet... not that old in the grand scheme of things, but compared to the 20 year-olds in his flight school he was ancient. After calling one of the other cadets "Kid" he was quickly dubbed "Geezer". Since Ward was also older than many of his Flight Instructors the callsign stuck.
 
 
Flight School was difficult for Ward. He quickly became a skilled gunner but he wasn't a natural flyer. He spent many hours in the simulators, but ended up compensating for his 'stiff stick' by learning and adapting the tactics his instructors drilled into them.
 
 
Ward has been an active pilot for 7 years and survived multiple skirmishes. Some were with the other Colonies but most were against terrorists or pirates. All too many of his friends and fellow pilots didn't survive however and the weight of that loss has been building for a while. Geezer was even shot down in a dogfight once, and nearly lost his right arm at the shoulder.
 
 
===Rebellion===
 
Things changed once the Cylons started rebelling. Where before he could go months without seeing an enemy ship on patrol, and only engage in half of those instances, now there were skirmishes all the time and his friends started dropping like flies. Moreover, the 12 Colonies finally started working together, and he was now flying next to Capricans and Saggitarons in what some were calling the Colonial Fleet.
