Scouter

The Scouter (usually just called Scouter, previously known as Lulu) is the secretive sibling of Rurik Stelarikov.
Although their past days are now long forgotten and lost in the whimsical void of eternity, the Scouter was once at the top of their own world, and by own world we mean their old house in the woods, living alone. The Scouter's original name was Lulu, the younger sibling of Redstar who shortly went missing after the events of the First Tiberium War. Now they march to the beat of their own drum, wandering aimlessly through the large tundra of Siberia remembering only two faces, her brothers and her friend Aaron. Thanks to an attack from a Scrin Mothership's Catalyst Cannon, as well as a number of other genetic factors, their DNA was shifted similar to their brothers, and is the reason that they now resemble a short raccoon-like being, who proudly faces their duties in spite of their tiny size without fear. They spend a lot of time hiding within trees, despite being terrible at climbing them. The downside to this massive genetic shift however is that it shortened their life expectancy to just five years, though advancements in genetic healthcare have since overcome this crippling shortage of time.
The Scouter is colour blind after an unfortunate tree accident, so talking to them about colours will only agitate them. They are also only capable of seeing with their right eye, as during their early days as a human being, they fell from a branch and landed on top of their own helmet, allowing the spike to destroy the left eye. Thankfully, their hearing ability far exceeds their eyesight, and what they cannot see, they can most definitely hear.
Scouter is also commonly known as the child with a gun, due to the fact they are physically 8 years old and outside of mission-time, matches their age in behaviour. Many reports by Russian citizens claim to see them appear in small villages near the tundra, as an oversized raccoon stealing vegetables from local markets and fleeing shortly. Scouter utilizes a dart gun as a weapon, its ammunition being a vicious chemical compound that, once in contact with a target, injects into their bloodstream and eats away the target from inside.
Scouter's existence is one of solitary wandering in the least-populated regions of the Soviet Union, where their only contact with other life is either by accident, or because they've sent a message to their brother. At least once a year, Rurik heads out on his own to find them and the two spend a week or so as family before his obligations and Scouter's wanderlust pull them apart again. Even so, Scouter remains an important anchor in Rurik's life and helps keep his humanity alive.
