Jeanne-Amandine Lepen

=The Pilot=
Jeanne Amandine Le Pen was born into the upper classes of French society, in the household of one of the most infamous political families: the Le Pens, founders of the nationalist party Front Nationale. 
Her father came from a long line of French generals and had played a key role in the country's National Security Council until ill-health had forced him to step down. Her Marseilan mother had made her mark as a cellist with the Paris Opera and as a soloist on multiple records. The couple expected even more from their only daughter than they did from themselves. Jeanne went to ballet classes, took ice-skating lessons, and learned the piano and the cello. She accompanied her father on his trips to Europe and Asia, and gained an insight into the diversity of different cultures at an early age. She never tired of hearing about the history and traditions of different ethnic groups, and pestered the locals to tell her about themselves, chattering away, usually in their native tongue. By the age of twelve she had perfected her knowledge of English, her mother's first language; at fifteen she spoke fluent German, Italian and Spanish; and by the time she was eighteen she could get by in Russian.
Her parents' attitudes were unbending as far as manners, dress and etiquette were concerned, though in other respects they were peculiarly tolerant. The marriage of her father's Catholic principles to her mother's atheist inclinations was as harmonious as their own. The real surprise was that her father had insisted on taking his wife's name, a decision that had pitched him into a long, drawn-out struggle with the authorities. Margueritte worshiped her father for making this gesture towards the woman he loved and who had left his arrange marriage for him. He was a man of contradictions, both liberal and dyed-in-the-wool Nationalist in his opinions, all of which he held with equal conviction.
Someone with less strength of character would probably have been crushed by the family's determination to be the best at everything, but the youngest member rose to the challenge, finishing high school a year before her peers and with perfect grades to boot. Jeanne-Amandine was convinced that she could do anything she turned her mind to. Even the Presidency wasn't beyond her reach. 
By 2003 she'd been appointed deputy chief of staff for the The Army Human Resources Directorate (DRHAT). Great things were being said about her in the Ministry of Defense, thanks to the connections of her parents. At the same time, her affinity for politics didn't go unnoticed. All she needed now was a significant
military victory. The MoD insisted on active service before it opened the way to higher pastures, and Jeanne hankered for a first-rate international crisis.
She did not expect the Vannai. 
===Fall From Grace===
Jeanne's life began to unravel on December 27th 2019, when Jeanne was asked by Master Wheel of the Luo to investigate a former PLA bunker in the path of invading Axe Gang Bandits. Entering on foot, Jeanne would discover that the bunker was actually a MRBM silo, currently occupied by former Che soldiers. Jeanne would succeed in clearing the bunker of bandits before programming the unlaunched nuclear missile to fire on Beijing, then territory of Warlord Beng. In doing so, Jeanne succeeded in obliterating Beng, the core of Beng's military forces, burning down most of Beijing and killing a reported four million people over the course of several days in the aftermath. Jeanne spent the next several days wracked with guilt, and attempted suicide several times. However, her games of Russian Roulette ended in empty chambers every time, and Jeanne took this as a sign that she was to continue suffering on this earth for her sins.
Although most were willing to believe that the Bandits had set the nuke off and that Jeanne had simply been too late to stop them, the Axe Gang released audio from the bunker implicating Jeanne as having lied about the launch already starting by the time she got there. This caused a number of individuals within ACC to suspect Jeanne, chief among them Lyn Wong. When Lyn surprised Jeanne in her quarters in Taiwan, she all but admitted to her that she was the one behind the launch.
Lyn, accompanied by Indigo, would attempt to investigate the bunker to indict Jeanne. However, Luo Bai He, despite having his own doubts, preferred to believe in Jeanne's innocence, and forbid anyone from inspecting the bunker, forcing the two to sneak in instead. Armed with pictures of the scene, Indigo attempted to question Jeanne in the middle of a meeting between the Iron Army and ACC on 4 January. Fearing the damage to ACC's public image, Captain Eren Huchel would ask the two to continue their investigation out of the eye of the Iron Army or any other Chinese groups.
The meeting concluded with the Iron Army's demand that the Luo warband be conquered and absorbed by the Iron Army. An Guo, knowing that Jeanne had close ties to the Luo, requested that the ACC forbid Jeanne from returning to Luo territory, to which Huchel agreed. Two days later, Jeanne traveled to Arabia to discuss the recent developments both regarding herself and the situation with the Luo with Colonel Azriel Gamer of Moqaddas. Jeanne would appeal to Gamer to support the Luo against the Iron Army, leading to Gamer admitting that he did indeed find the situation dissatisfying but that he could only petition ACC to change their stance on the matter. Three days later, Jeanne returned to Taiwan to meet with An Guo and attempt to dissuade him from attacking the Luo, inadvertently causing An Guo to have a heart attack from his anger. After five days, Jeanne would go against orders and return to the Luo camp, lying to Luo Bai He and telling him that Moqaddas support was on the way. Luo bai He, severely injured in a previous battle, would give his command seal to Jeanne as a sign of trust between them, technically making her the new Warlord of the Luo.
Speaking as the temporary overall leader of the Luo warband, Jeanne attempted to contact An Guo, only to instead reach Tan Ning Hui instead, who declared Jeanne a traitor to the Iron Army after learning that she had thrown her lot in with the Luo. The next day, Colonel Gamer would hear of this latest turn of events and give stern orders to Jeanne to rescue Master Wheel from the Axe Gang and put him back in control of the Luo immediately or consider her life forfeit. 
Three days passed, and on 16 January, Jeanne found herself running out of time and support. Although Zau Yi had appeared with a possible lead on Wheel’s location, Jeanne had no one able to accompany her on the rescue operation. She attempted to buy time by contacting Lyn Wong in the hopes that she might be able to delay the Iron Army’s attack. Lyn was apathetic to Jeanne’s plight despite Jeanne’s begging, only agreeing to help on the conditions that Jeanne pledge herself to Lyn, that she hand over control of the Luo to her, and the Luo Bai He and his remaining senior leadership be imprisoned. Jeanne was reluctant to agree, remembering what had happened to Keng Si, but felt she had no choice but to accept.
That night, Jean and Luo Bai He met once again. Jeanne confessed her feelings of love to Luo, but he was determined to face defeat alone, taking back his seal. After parting ways one last time, Jeanne decided to seek asylum with the European Federation as her very last option. After agreeing to meet with the EuF in person and purchase her safety by selling Moqaddas secrets and ACC/Iron Army plans, she recorded a message to Colonel Gamer, intending to fake suicide to cover her escape. However, Jeanne’s AI, Angelique, decided that Jeanne’s self-destructive behavior has gone too far and instead incapacitated her and flew her back to New Zealand.
Upon Angelique’s arrival in New Zealand and explanation of what had happened, Captain Huchel would remove Jeanne from the China War campaign and commit her to custody of the Armor Corps Military Police. Jeanne would wake up two days later in New Zealand under the care of Dr. Yushizu Senkai, where she would undergo therapy until she was deemed fit for release into Moqaddas custody, who would determine her eventual punishment for her attempted betrayal. The EuF, however, was not to be denied the prize they had been teased, and launched a daring recovery operation while Jeanne was transferred to Arabian customs for transport to Riyadh on 29 January. Unfortunately for the EuF, while they had been successful in leading the ACC to believe that Jeanne had been killed in a terrorist attack on the prison convoy, Jeanne herself had little of value to offer to them by this point. She was eventually press-ganged into the SOE’s reject unit, the Jolly Deadmen, and was forced to deploy back to China under the flag she hated
===Life in the European Federation===
Jeanne was initially assigned to the SOE's 18th cell. After the unit's return from China, she was reassigned to the 15th cell. At some point, after, she was pulled from the SOE due to the mysterious appearance of the Peacock and a paramilitary professional force under her, inviting all pilots to participate in a tournament. Fearing destabilization and reignition of war in the region and to investigate this threat, she was given a salvaged Suit by the Federation, acting as an "independent" pilot. Appearing under the alias "Black Lancer", she participated in Che En Lin's tournament and, alongside Indigo, assailed Che directly, defeating her. After the success in subduing this emergent threat, command has allowed her to continue operating under her alias, acting as a valuable source of intelligence to the pilot community and dealing with threats the Federation does not want to involve SOE forces.
