## **Biography**

### **Early Life**

#### **Military Service with the Confederates**

Carolina Russo was part of the Darkwater remnant known as the Terran Confederation from the Phoenix Dimension, working as an aide to Grand Protector Marco Wolf before his disappearance during the fall of Novaterra.

Around the year 5 P.T., she would first see military service when being sent alongside many armies of the Apollo on a MUQ Expedition to the Far North. Initially driving out the Vortex forces in hiding since the Decimation of Earth, she and the other Confederate forces were given the order to begin an extermination of the Qu that remained on the northern galactic region.

Witnessing the senseless massacre happening before her eyes, Russo and her men went on mutiny against the higher officers leading the military operation. They were detained shortly after and later banished to the labor station Icarus on an indefinite imprisonment.

### **Iron Nations: Interstellar**

#### **Mission with the Wolfpack**

On 12 P.T., When Wolf was captured by the Confederates during the Battle of Sol of the First League War, Russo encountered her former superior once he was also sent to Icarus Station. The two soon started conspiring and gathering allies with the help of another officer, Captain Salvini.

A few weeks into Wolf's imprisonment, Icarus Station was attacked by a Chimaera fleet led by Blut Wolf. Initially being left behind by the former Grand Protector, she gathered all her allied soldiers in order to steal a corvette from one of the hangars amidst the chaos and escape.

Their plan was foiled however, as the station was shot down from orbit and into a rocky planet below. With their escape ship damaged, Russo sent Salvini to retrieve documents of the Phoenix Project stored inside the base while the rest of her men repaired the ship.

Shortly after, she encountered Wolf and was told to escape with him to the Cosmos Man's ship, the Voyager. After this, the Wolfpack was formed and she was made their commander for the duration of the investigation into the new Vortex incursion into the Orion Dimension.

A few weeks after their escape, Commodore Russo led the Wolfpack during the Battle of Azator and later the skirmish on Ahgran whilst facing Enforcer Manticore, who was hunting them all down under orders from Warlord Pegasus. When Wolf and Aura were captured during the skirmish on Outpost Warhawk, Russo became determined to rescue her captured colleagues. During the subsequent mission to Kotollon, Russo was responsible of manually activating the orbital shield of the planet while Crassus' task force arrived inside the planet's atmosphere to face the two other battleships standing guard of the Order Aeternum's base.

#### **Siege of Ultheron**

Months after defeating Enforcer Manticore, Russo was called to the siege of Ultheron as part of the alliance forces led by the Illyrian High General, during most of the battle she acted as a military advisor to the commander. During the final attempt of breaking the blockade over the planet, Russo led the Wolfpack alongside the two Jägers on a mission to destroy the main base on the capital city of Ultheron.

After successfully shutting down the power system to the base with Salvini's EMP device. She and the rest of the Wolfpack planted bombs all over the compound and later escaped on the Voyager with the Cosmos Man, destroying the installation as they left. Russo later took part of Phoenix Jäger's funeral.

#### **Post-Siege Life and Retirement**

After the Chimaera forces were repelled from Ultheron, Russo and the Wolfpack joined the Terran Defence Organization and acted as the Miskatonic University's mobile containment team, generally working closely with General George's Foundation. Around the year 33 P.T., Russo retired from the military and spent the rest of her days living in the Interregnum before dying some time during the later 50's P.T.
