Character Profile: Moondust

Moondust (formerly Flynn Taggart) was a Gamer soldier during the Gamer-Furry War who was captured and forced to the side of the Furries. He played a pivotal role in the Gamer-Furry War, first fighting for the Gamers during the Battle of Retard Hill and second for deactivating L'Manburg's Heavy Artillery cannons during the Fall of L'Manburg. After the collapse of the Chinese government, he went off-the-grid, choosing to live life in a simple log cabin. However, he was recently confronted by Baron Von OwO and convinced into working with the Furries yet again.

## History

Moondust's legacy began as a Gamer before the Gamer-Furry War. An American Gamer, he had the simple plans of finishing High School and joining College when the American-Russian war broke out. Being 18, he was drafted into the American military, where he fought during the war's 5-month duration. However, in the accompanying nuclear holocaust known as the Seven Hour War, he defected from the American Military when the Furries attacked New York, instead joining the Gamers where he served as a lieutenant because of his previous military experience. He led a platoon of soldiers through several minor battles before being stationed to Retard Hill days before the Furries' strike. During the onslaught his troops were killed and his right arm was severed by shrapnel, but even then he rallied several hundred Gamers to a charge that pushed the Furries back. However, the battle ultimately ended in failure as the Hill was blown up, and Moondust was forced to retreat. Stuck deep in Furry territory, he hijacked a plane alongside several other survivors and flew to Europe, where he regrouped at L'Manburg.

Over a year, he fought alongside what remained of the Gamers, building L'Manburg alongside Wilbur Soot, who he became fast friends with. However, during an assassination mission against General Foxxler, a commander in the USFs army, he was captured, and sedated. Waking up deep within the confines of an old prison, he was informed the Furries had implanted a device in him that would shut down his Nervous System at the first sign of defiance, killing him. Having no other choice then to comply, he was placed alongside 3 other prisoners, those being Isabelle (A furry convict) Hondo Akibo (A Weeb hacker) and Captain Von OwO (A Furry caught sending intelligence to the Gamers) all of which had similar implants. This group formed the first Furry Death Squad, a Suicide Squad-like group of mercenaries. This group would run several missions together. Eventually, his future beyond his control, Moondust was sent back to L'Manburg, where he intentionally planted a loophold in L'Manburg's defense system which would allow him to disable the city's defenses. When the day came and the Furries took Britain, he disabled the city's AA cannons, allowing Furry bombers to decimate the city from above. As the city went up in flames, he looked upon what he had done and wept.

Six months after the battle, the Gamers had been formally defeated and Wilbur Soot had gone off the grid, similar to Token Fat Kid. Moondust, along with Hondo, stormed a Furry medical facility and managed to remove their implants without detection. The next day they attempted to steal a fighter plane and escape, but were discovered by Isabelle and Captain Von OwO, who's ultimate allegiances were to their country. The fighter dueled with a USF squadron in the sky, managing to fight back and destroy 3 fighters before being shot down, collapsing into a forest somewhere in the Eastern Europe wilderness. Believing Hondo to be dead, Moondust crawled out of the plane and disappeared into the woods. Walking almost a hundred miles on foot, he arrived at a small settlement of survivors. This is where he remained for 10 years, and where he met his closest friend, a mechanical construct named Eriana-3. However, a Furry platoon caught onto his location and attacked it, destroying the village. Amidst the flames, Eriana-3 was fatally wounded, and passed on her hand cannon to Moondust, her dying wish for Moondust to one day avenge her. He took her hand cannon, which he named Eriana's Vow, and ran further off. Another hundred or so miles away he constructed a log cabin and lived out another 19 years, isolated from the world.

19 years later, Isabelle, now a special ops commander, Von OwO, now a Baron, finds Moondust's location and asks him to join the USF, now the Furry Empire, to defeat the Human Resistance once and for all. Upon refusing Moondust is captured and again sedated. Waking up he is informed another Neural Deactivation device was planted in him, and also discovered that Hondo lived on a a Cyborg. Furry Death Squad One, now reunited, begins their acts of terror anew on the Human Resistance.

## Personality

Moondust was originally a carefree, eccentric teen, with a happy-go-lucky attitude. The Gamer-Furry War changed him, gave him courage and resolve. However, being a part of Death Squad One changed him, as he lived in fear every day of his termination. Betrayal, death, and duty changed him more, causing him to become highly antisocial, cunning, and tactical. However, much of his military training has been forgotten during his time in isolation, but he is quickly learning.

## Arsenal

Moondust's arsenal was quite large, but much of it was lost during his escape. However, it was preserved in a vault until his return.
