Haro

*"You have failed the state before. You will not fail it again."*

#### Explosives Expertise

Haro's long undiscovered calling in making and using explosives of all shapes and sizes. Not having the steadiest hands, it does occationally lead to a few small disasters. Haro frequently makes use of volatile ordnance to gain the upper hand in combat, using fragmenting grenades to clear rooms and satchel charges to clear the block. Handheld shaped-charges assist in dispatching more heavily armoured opponents, primarily via scorching an inch-wide hole through whatever was unfortunate enough to get hit.

#### Shock Doctrine

Haro fought a war in a heavily urban setting, knowing full well the advantage surprise grants. Armed with a sub-machinegun masterfully crafted by Shiro, he prefers to take point and demonstrate first-hand the compact, drum-fed source of firepower in his hands. Not averse to the confines of a concrete and brick jungle, he too, wields a battered entrenching tool for truly close-quarter-combat.

### Defensive

#### Field Fortifications

An entrenching tool's primary objective is to entrench. In combination with his element, Haro can use the reliable piece of equipment to rapidly fortify a position, whether it be with a trench, foxhole or wall of sandbags. Using materials from the environment and a little improvisation, he can put together a relatively well-concealed postion in mere minutes.

## The Present

### Nature

Haro is generally easy-going and curious, taking every opportunity to learn more about his new place in the universe. A people-pleaser, he avoids confrontation and takes precaution as to not make enemies. Him finding himself in a new, warm environment has bolstered his willingness to make friends and allies on the station. Despite having improved since arriving, Haro still tends to turtle back to a 'survive-at-all-costs' mentality under heavy stress, falling short of being a reliable leader and limiting his ability to communicate clearly.

Having always learned by *doing*, Haro is quick to make-do with what he has on-hand. The most unassuming objects and trivial scrap can become a lethal improvised weapon given a little time and effort. Despite this, his hands are not as steady as that of many others. The occational tremour has resulted in unfortunate mishaps with explosives and wiring.

Haro is still young, especially by the standards of the station. Having ascended shortly after his twenty-second birthday, he still maintains an air of youthful optimism, directly in contrast to his experiences. He too has seen firsthand the depths of warfare, but sees his ascention as a start of a better chapter in his life. That said, he generally prefers to keep his old life from coming up in conversation, especially regarding his own mistakes. It's better they not know, he thinks, lest he damage his most valued relationships with his closest allies.
