Keegan Motherfuckin' Soyer

Keegan Quinn Soyer was born in Waynesboro, Georgia to Charles and Jess Soyer, on February 14th, 2077. Charles was a USCPF field technician, his mother a stay-at-home mother. When Keegan was born, Charles had just finished his final year of serving with the USCPF, and both of Keegan's parents were able to give him a steady upbringing.

Keegan spent his first 16 years of his life in Waynesboro, simply under the wings of his parents. He was taught the followings of the USCPF, and found a stroke of patriotism inside himself, along with his father. This inspired him to do well in school, and to join the army to become a technician like his father. Upon turning 18, he was unable to join the USCPF, with a pressing lean towards going to college. He travelled north, going to an engineering college in Pennsylvania. He was in college for 3 years, and at the age of 22, he sought out to make more for himself.

Soyer spent 2 years jumping from job to job, unable to find anything too interesting for himself, though the thought of joining the USCPF always lingered. At 25, he found himself a job with a weapons manufacturing company, responsible for the Levi weapons platform. He worked with them for 4 years, learning the insides of the platform, and becoming interested in weapons of the US. After a devastating assembly line accident, leaving two workers dead, and three more injured, Soyer left and signed up for the USCPF at 29.

Keegan's time in the USCPF could be recorded as one of his most well-enjoyed experiences in life, as he spent roughly 8 years with them. He grew comfortable with weapons, learned and trained like a soldier. He wasn't able to become a technician, like his father, but found a substitute in working in demolitions. He became one of the best demolition experts among his peers, being the go-to guy about a bomb. He achieved the rank of Sergeant. During his time with the USCPF, Soyer fell in love with Kathlene Pearson, and they got married two years into their relationship. All was going well for him.

One day, while out on a basic patrol, charting an abandoned small-town along the border, he stumbled along a pre-war cache of US weaponry, some of which dating all the way back to the Vietnam era. Soyer came in possession of an M79 grenade launcher, beat up and out of working condition. Upon returning to base, he was able to get it fixed up with the aid of a couple of friends, giving it a fresh look and making it capable of using USCPF-grade 40mm grenades.

The details on Soyer's split from the USCPF are muddy, but it's known that he discharged the M79, causing the death of two of his squadmates, Corporals Harris and McHaulic and the injury of another, Private Ferguson. Instead of facing a court martial and discharge, Soyer took everything on his back and abandoned, moving East along the US-PRT border towards Halfmoon Creek, and then North through South Carolina, in the winter of 2114. Around this time, his wife also left him, unable to bear the weight of her husband's misdeeds.

All alone, he came across a group of bandits, who tried to rob him. At the time, he'd developed alcoholism, and an unnatural connection to his M79. His refusal to cooperate, and the resulting discombobulation of one, gained him a bit of notoriety among the locals. While in a coastal town, the Corsairs pulled up and began raiding and pillaging the town. Much like how he shifted away from the USCPF, the details on how he joined the Corsairs are muddy. He didn't go through the same 'join or die' situation, as he seemed to cause more chaos to the pirates than they had to the town. And, unable to pry his M79 from his drunken hands, he was left with it, under close eye from Blisk. He was eventually instated the Privateer role in 2115, and the reigns on his destructive ability were loosened, as he became trusted.

Keegan Soyer can be seen with a bottle in one hand, and his M79 in the other. He's known for his acts of pure chaos, and utterly huge size. He's not the brightest, despite his advanced schoolings, but is rarely crossed because of his control.
