Over the years, William has changed much in both personality and temperament.

Foulke, although slow to trust, is outstandingly loyal and very caring for his close friends loved ones.

Over the years, William has changed much in both personality and temperament. The young man who once lived on Planet Manhattan without a dream of the stars is nothing like the embittered and embattled veteran of the many wars and losses that plague Sirius. Many people believe him to be overly paranoid, sarcastic, and violent. But this is merely a thin mask to hide from the world. Foulke, although slow to trust, is outstandingly loyal and very caring for his close friends loved ones. He is tormented by the mental ghosts and traumatic memories of the past, hoping to one day wash his hands clean of the sins he committed in the name of whatever cause he followed at the time.
William's body, although riddled with scars and the early signs of the eroding process of aging, is still in fairly peak condition due to the rigorous training regimen mandated by Battlegroup Auxesia. Notable among his features are three cybernetic modifications: Two cybernetic prosthetics (Left arm and right leg) and a neural interface jack grafted into the back of his neck.
Special Skills
Quadrilingual (English, Spanish, German, French), accomplished fighter pilot, veteran special forces soldier, amateur mechanic
Special Abilities
In possession of a suit of sophisticated armor stolen from the armory of Battlegroup Auxesia and a Renzu Corp "Sutinga" Very Heavy Fighter
Background
The man currently known as William Foulke is an accomplished mercenary wandering the Border and Edge Worlds of human civilization in the Sirius Sector. Raised in poverty below the opulent skyscrapers of New Boston, William fought and scraped his way out of the depths to attend West Point Military Academy and enlist in the Liberty Navy. His unit saw action in the Liberty-Rheinland War and Gallic Invasion of Bretonia, paving the way for his eventual transfer to the Liberty Security Force after a battlefield promotion left him at the head of a massacred squadron. He participated in numerous missions as an agent in the employ of the LSF on Planet Leeds during the lead-up to Operation Royal Flush, and was tasked with intercepting the dangerous Battlegroup Auxesia, a labelled terrorist group in the Republic of Liberty. In the deserted Kansas system, he fell under the influence of the treacherous Nomads, an alien species occupying Sirius that seeks the death of humanity. Ironically, Auxesia came to his rescue, and revealed their true nature as vanguards of humanity against the Nomads. He participated in a variety of missions over a few years with Auxesia, losing limbs and seeing the whole of Sirius. Eventually, after a lengthy coma knocked him out of action for some time, he left the Battlegroup in search of his long lost sister. While scavenging for Nomad artifacts in the far reaches of the Omicrons, Foulke's Sutinga was sucked through a jump hole and deposited in the Schatten star system without warning.
