NAME: Katan
AFFILIATION: Mercenary/Against Oz
APPEARANCE: Katan is a man in his mid thirties with green eyes and black hair that, despite him being well out of his youth, is still messy most of the time. He tends towards the colors black and white in his dress, and is a very utilitarian dresser, preferring jeans, t-shirts, and tank tops to anything dressy.
PERSONALITY AND HISTORY: Katan used to be a cold, angsty bastard, but having found a sympathetic other in Alessa, he's become warmer and less angst as time goes on. He's not above moments or introspection, though. He will also desperately fight to protect those things dear to him.
When Katan was little, all he wanted to do was make a mobile suit and be like those fighters for the colonies, the gundam pilots. And, little mehcanical genius he was, he did, and then he took it on a test drive.
That's when things went horribly wrong. The teen had seriously underestimated the Zero system, and before the Gundam Pilots could put his suit down like the rabid dog it was, he had destroyed his own home colony with his own hands.
Depressed beyond all recognition, Katan determined to remake his mobile suit--and do it right this time. Somehow, he'd use it to make up for the horrible thing he had done.
During this time, he met up with Alessa, and felt an attraction to the girl, despite her young age--making things somewhat awkward with her husband, though he tried not to show it.
Before anything could come of this, Katan found out something startling--his sister was A) Alive, B) An Oz-R Officer, and C) Pissed. There was a long, gorey battle, Leaving the Gundam Viper crippled and his sister "Yari" dead.
Reatreating further into his shell, the mercenary eventually hooked up with Alessa, now without her husband, in more ways than one, and built a new Viper, though, once he and Alessa had escape from Oz, he broke it down for spare parts to help Alessa and he's new fix-it job. He hasn't stopped designing Viper upgrade, though , and, along with his on again off again lover, he tries to live a somewhat normal life, though every once in a while he takes out his plans and dreams of a time he might be able to use it again.

POTENTIAL MOBILE SUIT NAME: Viper Fang Custom
CLASSIFICATION: Gundam
DESCRIPTION: Katan has always been a fan of close combat, and the Viper Fang Custom reflects this. It's mostly black, with a silver face and hands, and dark green on the shoulders, knees, elbows, and feet. Its head, though resembling a standard gundam's, has pointed, ear-like projections on the side.
Weaponry: A pair of the standard head vulcans.
A pair of Viper claws--small shields shaped vaguely like snake heads, one on each forearm. The weapons have an epyon-type heat rod mounted just inside each "mouth", as well as a beam sabre meant to be hand carried stored in each.
Hyper Beam Saber: Mounted on Gundam Viper's right hip, this is an incredibly powerful close combat weapon, arguably one of the strongest ever made.
Beam Hatchet: Mounted on the left hip, this beam axe is designed to be able to be thrown.
Beam Blade: Mounted on a long, jointed tail behind the Viper Fang Custom.
