## Overview

Anne Robin Levesque, (Call-sign Oxide, born Anne Robin Harrington) Was an American security-contractor involved in the Japanese coup d'etat in the 2030’s. She is Robin Kiley and Merrick Harrington’s only child, though she was primarily raised by Kiley’s family in Louisiana. Though her original job saw her as a member of the Interior Ministry’s National Security Force, her allegiance to any political entity or faction is repeatedly called into question throughout the course of her story. Ultimately, she becomes affiliated with November.

## Biography

### Early Life

Levesque was born during the turn of the millennium as the only child of Robin Kiley and Merrick Harrington. Robin placed special significance onto Levesque, as she was preceded by a number of miscarriages and false-positive pregnancies between the couple.

Though she was born in Minnesota, it was decided early on by her parents that it would be much safer for Anne if she grew up away from the deep-state scrutiny that the two had earned from their actions during the Mittageisen Incursion. This led to her being primarily raised by her aunt in Louisiana and adopting the surname Levesque to avoid suspicion, growing up around her five male cousins and learning to compete in sports.

From an early age, Levesque displayed a musical capability and understanding far beyond what an ordinary child would exhibit, learning to play piano and guitar. Going through school in an economically downtrodden area, it became increasingly clear that a career in the field of fine arts was infeasible for a girl of her socioeconomic status. Beginning at the age twelve, she began regularly commuting across the country between her birth-parents in Minnesota and her family in Louisiana. Around this time, she began developing feelings for other girls her age, which was accepted by her birth mother, but largely ostracized by her aunt and cousins.

By the time her final year of school came around, she was struggling to find a position in the work-force to pay rent and the mounting fiscal burden of calls from debt collectors. Despite her mother’s strong convictions that she should stay in Minnesota and pursue a musical career, Levesque decided to apply for Matrox, a private security firm that served as one of the few employment opportunities available to blue-collar Americans in the post-fracture economic landscape of the 2020’s. This dismayed her mother greatly, who felt that Anne was her one and only chance at being able to raise and nurture a child of her own.

### Private Security

Levesque was employed for a lengthy and largely uneventful seventeen-year career in private security, split between Matrox and another consulting firm after them that saw her living in Shanghai and New Zealand for extended periods of time, along with more bureaucratic mandates that saw her stationed on forward operating bases in the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea. Despite seeing relatively little combat during this time, she was still fitted with a lightweight nerve-attachment combat chassis that connected to the back of her neck. After a period of failed insurrection from within the internal structure of the Japanese government, private security contractors began applying for government contracts in spite of the low possibility of employment, as such contracts would be incredibly lucrative. Levesque, having met Takehito Hasegawa previously during a training exercise, was privately accepted by the inspector into the National Security Force, along with a few other candidates from other outfits.
