::Name:: Riley Kiina Haile (silent 'e')
::Call Sign:: Hailstorm
::Age:: 32
::Race:: Human, Female
::Canon or Original?:: Original
::Appearance:: Height: 6 ft
Build: (light, medium, heavy) Medium Build, Athletic and supple.
Hair color: Raven black hair, mid-back, usually tied back in a braid and pinned under her hat when in uniform.
Eye color: Grey eyes
::Personality:: According to her aunt and uncle, her bubbly personality and her tendency to be a bit hyper come from her mother but her (rare) seriousness is inherited from her father. It’s a nice mix isn’t it? Heh, she also happens to have a temper. She can truthfully say that she's been desensitized to death, destruction and the like.
::Family:: (Parents/Siblings): Deceased - when she was twelve her and her family were involved in a car accident. Her mom and dad died on impact and her brother and herself were taken to the ICU. He died a little while later from severe internal injuries. She was the only survivor. She was sent to live with her aunt, uncle and their daughter after the accident.
::History::(should include place of birth, schooling, etc) Was born in Michigan, in a little area called Rapid River, a small Town north of Escanaba, going to Rapid River Area Schools in Escanaba up until when she was twelve in the Upper Penninsular (yes she is what they term a 'Upper' - pronounced 'Ewper') .
Was your typical B+ grade student at Rapid River High School (on US Highway 2 in the Upper Penninsular) and aced her exams with enough points to get into college by working hard like her parents would have wanted her to do.
She graduated from college as one of the best, loved Chemistry - the blowing things up part. Made a few friends, dated a few guys until she saw the notice. The National Guard was looking for recruits and she just so happened to see the notice on the bulletin board. She signed up immediately. She was looking for adventure in her life and joining the National Guard was the perfect way to get some.
She trained as an Army Sniper for two years before being sent to Iraq. After doing her 10 year stint honing her skills (and is one of the best they have for a female) she left the full time Military and joined the Reserves. She has been posted at Camp Grayling Army National Guard Base with the rank of Captain (worked long and hard for the right) and now spends most of her time with rookies over there, teaching them how to handle weapons.
Riley is cleared on M-16 Rifle, M-4 Carbine, MP-5 Submachine-gun, M-249 Squad Automatic Weapon, Mk-23 Automatic and her favorite the M-24 SWS. The M-24 SWS also known as the Sniper Weapons System is a bolt-action 7.62 mm rifle and is issued to specialist snipers in Special Forces and throughout the Army.
To constantly and precisely hit a target two hundred yards beyond the Leupold 10X telescopic sight’s optimal range usually takes months - even years - of practice (she grew up shooting guns, since she hunted deer growing up on her grandparents farm).
When at home she loves to go out and shoot her Remington 870 20 Gauge Shotgun. She is an avid hunter during Deer season, hunting in the Hiawatha National Forest, Crystal Falls State Forest Area, and the Ottowa National Forest and has bagged her share of 6 to 8 point Bucks throughout her time, and even keeps the venison in the freezer for later on in the winter months.
Owns a pendant consisting of a silver Dragon’s Claw holding a clear crystal ball on a thick silver chain - a present from her father for when she turned 16 (coming of age type of thing) that was presented to her by her Uncle in his place. Usually kept hidden beneath her uniform it has become her good luck charm of sorts, (since when she went on missions that were deemed too dangerous and little chance of survival, she always came back alive, with few injuries - mostly scrapes, only one had her laid up for a while - a shot through her left shoulder.)
::Alliance:: Autobot
::Your Name:: Caroline
::Your Age:: 28
::RP Experience:: 9 Years
::RP Sample:: Riley looked up at Lennox as he handed her the NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) that was required by all who eventually joined up with N.E.S.T at their base on Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean. She nodded her head oin understanding as she reached for a pen in one of her Class-A dress shirt pockets and began to write out the relevant information they required and then signed it after reading it back through again; it never pays to be hasty when signing official documents, especially in the Military.
