A North Point Highlander, Holly Clark was at one point a Naval Aviator for her homeland's military. After a drastic downsizing of Naval assets, she turned to mercenary work to help fund her large family back home. Instead of simply making a career out of it, she grew to like the occupation, becoming a prolific pilot in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

## Biography

### Early Life (1968-1984)

Holly was born to a crop duster pilot and a midwife in North Point's countryside, as such she spent a good portion of her formative years flying -albeit illegally and to the behest of her mother- in her father's plane. Growing up in the countryside made Holly the kind of child who never really got into the electronic side of life, preferring to go outside and play with the various friends she made in her school rather than stay cooped up inside watching 'the tube'. As she grew, so did her family. She eventually became the oldest among four brothers and a sister.

Due to the time she relegated on her family's farm her academic skills were lacking on almost every front. The only thing she learned that really stuck with her was the Seianese lessons that an immigrated farm hand taught her in her off time.

Tragedy struck sometime during Holly's sixteenth year of life, when her father died in an aviation crash. This wasn't entirely unexpected as crop dusting wasn't the safest job by any means, but the event still crushed her family of -now- seven. A little while later Holly dropped out of school and convinced her mother to let her enlist in the North Pointian Air Force. This was one of the safer job opportunities -since North Point never really went to war- that Holly had thought of, and the money was also nothing to scoff at. Since she had nothing to spend it on, and since her family needed it more than her, she kept at it despite the slight fear of flying and dying like her father.

### Military and Mercenary Career(1984-1991)

During Holly's life as a Naval aviator, she spent an absurd amount of time simply doing training games and on pointless patrols. Unfortunately, North Point's government noticed as well. Eventually the North Pointian Navy downsized, most of it's budget going to Air Force assets instead. This resulted in Holly without a job for roughly six months. This was until she was given the chance halfway across thew world, participating in smaller skirmishes for countries that didn't have a sizeable population nor army.

This all culminated in late 80's Sercia, where the current political climate made the acquisition of buffer forces a wise desicion. It was here she met her new squadron, and a wingman by the name of Jason 'Tombstone' Cain. The team slowly grew to know each other over the dozen sorties they flew, and she was given the nickname 'Fantasy' due to her tendency to zone out into her 'own little fantasy land' during long flights.

Eventually things became bleak, Holly as well as a few others from her squadron were offered a very significant sum of money for their abandonment of FATO in the Gangl Skirmishes... A duo of other members weren't offered the chance. Holly, seeing a chance to keep her family supplied for a very long time, she took the offer, and set off in the middle of the night while her wingmates. While Tombstone, and Oleander, were on patrol.

Holly proceeded to watch as all of her squadron members were shot down over a frozen landscape -and even shot two down herself-. She assumed they were all dead, but she was never paid the promised amount. Instead she was offered out another contract in another country, and had pretty much killed her squadron to pay off the ordinance she used.

Her life as a fighter pilot continued until her plane finally stopped stone cold and dead, finally failing after nearly four years. A few months later, she was given an offer in a Dorusian mercenary squadron as a WSO pilot.

### South Osean Continental War

After signing on with the Dorusian mercenary squadron, Holly met a phantom of her past, Jason Cain. Instead of the expected divine beatdown, the two had a civil conversation about that fateful winter night. It seemed the duo had a slightly strained friendship yet again. This relationship was further repaired on the night of September 29, 1992, Operation: Skeleton. Both pilots became fire forged friends yet again, after Jason was proven that he could trust in the highlander again. The relationship of the two only grew stronger over the duration of the conflict.

### After Morena

After her service with Morena, Holly would immigrate to Emmeria in late 1993 giving birth to her and Jason's daughter, Victoria. Later taking a commission with the Emmerian Air Force as a flight instructor.

## Personality and Traits

Holly's the coach you'd want in your corner of the ring, she always looks at things in a positive note, and always manages to get details of the situation that other may miss or overlook. She'd be willing to die for those who gain her friendship and trust, which makes anything that would put them at risk a burden to the woman. Holly is neither afraid to start nor end a fight, but she wouldn't go actively looking for one either.
