BiographyThrough her youth she was always a tom boy and a keen member of the Air Cadets. She naturally wanted to join the Air Force and ended up serving as an Intelligence Officer for 8 years. During her basic training she became more "girly" as she puts it and got interested in fashion. She earned a reputation among her fellow
 young officers for spending most of her wages on designer gear. She also began a small sideline making custom dresses for friends. Following the ending of her commission she elected to not renew her service and instead began pursuing other endeavours, first in fashion and then journalism. Eventually she began working with injured female soldiers to work through issues of mental health and body image. The fact she worked in Silverhills and had a small fashion boutique meant she soon became known to Stasya Pelagiya and was appointed as her first staff member prior to becoming Queen.

BiographyThe cousin of King David she has lead a life of service to the nation but stayed outside of the limelight her family connections would bring. She is something of a scholar who values deep knowledge and is more than ready to admit when she doesn't know something, rest assured though she'll know how to find out. She and her husband have for the past decade largely been ships that pass in the night but have maintained a friendly relationship partly for the sake of their wider families and partly because their genuine respect for each other.

BiographySon of the cousin of King David he is a keen engineer but believed that he should do more to support the family. He began working alongside some of the diplomats in the Foreign Office in recent years and has accompanied his cousin on a few overseas trips. He has also in the past worked on several prototypes for EMAC as a part of the design team helping improve performance. He is rather analytical in nature and can come across as cold and isolated in many ways until you get to know him.

BiographyGrew up around the servents of the royal family as her father spent his life since the age of 18 serving in the royal household, first as a stablehand following national service with the Cavalry until he became the Royal Chamberlain. Henrietta was lucky enough to be supported through her education by King Sven (King David's father) who recognised her as academically gifted and arranged for her to attend a private school. She was fascinated by other nations and their cultures and development and specialised in Anthropology intending to spend her life travelling and researching. She however found herself being drawn to follow her father's footsteps more or less and entered royal service first with the Council of Culture which was responsible for organising the nations major events such as the Festival of Greenflowers. She was then appointed as a government minister where she hoped to make people with similar interests to her have an easier time pursuing studies. As such alongside King David they created the Cultural Exchange Treaty Organisation. Following the resignation of Sir Harry Samuelson the King offered her the position of Prime Minister. She has remained single for much of her life, something she puts down to being a workaholic while others believe it is because in her mid 20's she was engaged to a young army officer who died in a boating accident and in many ways she never recovered.

Alba Karinya Human Trafficking Crisis
BiographyAt a young age her parents moved her into a religious commune known as the Fellowship of Helus. They believed that to truly live in the way Helus wants humanity to do life must be simple and more intune with the way our ancestors lived. The Fellowship also believed that the bloodline of Raimond Unasson was infact holy and must be expanded and protected. Her parents both died of illness, sadly the Fellowship shunned outsiders and lacked health care, leaving her to be raised for most of her life by the Commune's matriarch. In 2015 the escapee prisoner Prince James stumbled across the commune and the Fellowship protected and hid him thinking that because he was a descendant of Unasson he could not be guilty of any crime. Claire was encouraged by the matriach to try and form a romantic relationship with James and she succeeded, although it was largely her who loved James with little emotion being returned. Eventually James was discovered and the group helped him escape however by this time Claire was pregnant with his child. Claire was taken in by the Ironside family as even though James was out of favour King David believed that the child should not have to suffer because of who his father was. Tristian was born in early 2016 and has never meet his father. Claire now resides in a small lodge within the Northfort Palace grounds and while shameful of her time within the Fellowship she still harbours some of its teachings such as a devotion to the Unasson line which she now protects in her son.

Links to Important events?WHat have they done
BiographyKeir was a young man torn between two paths, his love of sport could have seen him become a professional Medieval MMA fighter after finishing in the Top 3 of several junior and amateur national competitions however even at these events he could often be found with his nose tucked away in a science book. Between Medieval MMA, School and his membership of Air Cadets his youth was a packed one and while at University he joined the Air Force reserve and managed to gain his pilots licence. With a dream of becoming a fighter pilot seemingly in his grasp his 6ft 4inch and 17stone frame was not suited to the small cockpit and so he found himself flying Twin Lifter Helicopters. He put himself through his Masters degree while serving as an officer on 159 Squadron. He wrote his research project on chemical warfare and found himself in demand by the military for several operations where there were concerns over the use of such things.

In 2007 he was transferred to the Joint Special Forces Aviation Wing which undertake a variety of roles requiring specialist flying skills and learned to pilot several fixed wing transport aircraft. His stay with JSFAW saw him become well respected as alongside his flying duties he did his best to learn the skills of those he was a "chauffeur" for and at the urging of Sgt.Olly Thomas tried out for Red Legion and passed selection with relative ease. He served just two years with the unit when Alex Redfern recommended him for service with the Royal Protection Agency primarily as part of the King's Advanced Party due to his knowledge of special forces operations and deep knowledge of chemical weapon use. The stability of a more routine job allowed him to indulge in  a variety of sporting passions and as technically members of the Royal Protection Agency are only on secondment from military units or police forces he still represents Red Legion at the Ostlake Games.

Since King David's operation he has often been seen out rowing with the King on the Lake along with several other members of the King's Security detail. He has also filled in several times as a close protection agent for Queen Stasya and Princess Freya.

BiographyWas always a bit of an outsider at school as she didn't fit into any particular "clique" She enjoyed building computers, kickboxing and photography. In 2013 she won the East Moreland Universities kickboxing championship and signed up to the Army as a Reservist. Upon graduation she was commissioned into the Royal Signals Corps and found herself in a unit responsible for working out programmes and systems to intercept electronic data that could be used by front-line forces. When in 2017 King David ordered the formation of a specialist cyber warfare unit she was headhunted to the unit and gained a fast track promotion to Captain. She found herself in 2018 educating Red Legion about the finer arts of computer hacking and various other aspects of cyber security. As it was believed at some point someone with her skills may be needed on a Red Legion operation she undertook the Combined Special Operations Course which is seen as a half way house towards joining Red Legion. Her handiness with firearms alerted the Royal Protection Agency that she may be a potential agent to work with Princess Rhiannon however instead she has found herself attached to Queen Stasya.

In 2017 she began a relationship with former Air Force officer Lindsay Easom who had also been brought into Cyber Legion.

BiographyConsidered a rather controversial scholar in East Moreland. He has advocated some rather unique insights into East Moreland history such as the traditional narrative of Paul of the Explorer being carefully crafted by the Royal Family. He was at University during King David's time at Royal Northfort University however the pair are nothing more than acquaintances. Walterson is intrigued by merging some religious ideas such as militant orders with the teaching of the Cult of Helus and has therefore sought to establish his own.

BiographyWas considered a bit of a weird kid at school. He would rather had spent his time wandering around the woods and messing about in old industrial buildings than spending time with friends. He had a bit of an obessession with firearms and was arrested in 1999 when he was caught shooting out the windows of a newly built warehouse with a high powered air rifle. He however seemed to find a home in the military where he seemed to excel. At his commanding officers encouragement he was selected for Red Legion at his first attempt in 2007. He developed a real knack for close protection work and for the final year of his military career he taught recruits about the skills required. It was suspected he would end up as a key part of a royal protection team however he opted to leave the military and began operating security for a highly exclusive nightclub in Silverhills. He soon made contact with many high flyers and celebrities and did some private work on the side. Eventually he took over the nightclub entirely and also invested in a series of other entertainment related industries including a casino, a small private cinema and a greyhound track. Despite now being considered a reasonably wealthy man he still likes getting his hands dirty and is often found working the door of his venues.

Links to Important events?WHat have they done
BiographyManaged to stay in education until 18 by a pure miracle of having a languages teacher who would tolerate some of his negative attitude. Originally had no intention of joining the military beyond national service but finding himself attached to the Army Aviation Corps he formed an interest in aviation and managed to transfer his national service into regular service in the Air Force. He served first as a loadmaster responsible for the rear of the various types of aircraft he worked on. Eventually he wanted a greater challenge and so enrolled for training with the JSFAW which is the unit that provides a great deal of logistic support to Red Legion. He seemed to excel on the course and was assigned to a helicopter team responsible for inserting and recovering Red Legionnaires on ops. This often lead him to have to man door guns, provide overwatch and various other tasks for the elite unit. He became friends with many of the Legionnaires and even considered trying selection however didn't want to give up flying. In 2007 he even qualified to fly helicopters himself and soon after a C-130 however he never had an opportunity to do so operationally.

In 2016 he began trying to spend more time with his daughter and left the military to work for Red Legionnaire friend Bryson Kemp. It soon became clear that attempts to spend more time with his daughter were not paying off and so he threw himself into some of the more shady work Kemp was involved with that used his entertainment company as a kind of front. Earle is now seen as somewhat a key part of Kemp's enterprises.

In his time with the military Earle was Armed Forces Middleweight Boxing Champion on two occasions.

Brigadier Jim Corey

Born in Ostlake in 1964 to a family steeped in military tradition. His father was a Sergeant in the Royal Fusiliers and his mother was a nurse in the Royal Army Medical Corps. He has a younger sister, Madeline who was also an officer in the military having served as an officer in the Navy until 2014.

As a child he moved around East Moreland a lot as the family moved from base to base. It was his love of sport though that helped him make friends as each new location gave him a chance to join a new hockey team. In 1980 he was invited to attend the short lived Northfort Academy for Sporting Excellence, a institute that tried to utilise military style academy set ups to promote sport rather than military skills. While the institute failed to convert many youngsters into sporting stars its strict routines and focus on excellence inspired Corey to consider a career in the military.

In 1982 he attended Keepton University to study Management Sciences. He graduated with a First Class honours degree in 1985 and then completed his Masters a year later. While at University he won colours for Hockey and Skiing as well as joining the Officer Training Corps. Upon graduation he joined the Army as an officer and in 1986 was commissioned with the Royal House Artillery. He served for ten years and then at the urging of his commanding officer applied for Red Legion. He was successful on his first attempt and joined the elite unit in 1996.

While in Red Legion he demonstrated a flair for Close Quarters Combat and some of his records in the Killing House (complex of buildings used for CQC Training) still stand to this day. He was mentioned in dispatches for several raids on Borland Separatist hideouts and in 1998 received two mentions in dispatches for gallantry while on operations in the Alps.

In 2006 he had reached the limit of his promotions within Red Legion without becoming a Staff Officer and this required experience back in the regular military. As a result he accepted a commission with the Royal Logistics Corps where he was responsible for heading the Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Warfare unit. This visit to the Royal Logistics Corps did not last too long as in 2010 he returned to Red Legion, first as an Officer responsible for running selection and then in charge of four "Hunter Teams". In 2014 he was approached by Brigadier Kelly to join his staff where he first acted as Chief Quartermaster and then later ran the Killing House. In 2018 he became the effective 2 I.C of the unit as Adjutant. When Brigadier Kelly announced his intention to retire in early 2022 the King appointed Corey as the new commander of the Red Legion. On 2nd July 2022 he assumed command of the unit.

In 1993 he married his then girlfriend of three years Elissa Newsome, a chiropractor he meet through the local hockey club he played for. The pair have three children, Jack (born 1995), Danielle (born 1998) and Hayley (born 2002). While Jack has dedicated his career to the military he is a listed director of Corey Medicine which is a business employing some 50 people in designing medical supports for injuries. His son Jack is currently serving as an officer in the Air Force flying helicopters. Danielle is a Maths teacher while Hayley is at University studying to become a vet. His son Jack has a three year old son called Leo.

Lewis Cartwright
RL-Stephen Campbell Moore

Lewis was born in 1979 in the East Moreland city of Portworth. As a kid he was a little bit of a delinquent and by the time he was 12 he had been arrested four times for stealing sailing boats from various marinas around the city. His parents were both alcoholic and as a result Lewis spent very little time at school. When he was caught for the fifth time trying on this occasion to steal a small motorboat he was put before the local magistrate who rather than sentencing him to community service gave him a choice of two years in a youth detention centre or attending Navy Cadets for a period of 12 months and gaining a satisfactory report from the youth groups commanding officer. Lewis was fortunate enough to meet Bruce Christophers, a former Royal Marine Commando who helped run the Cadet group. Christophers ensured Lewis began attending school regularly and helped ensure that he had help maintaining his uniform for Cadets. It also helped that Lewis saw that if he threw himself into the units activities he actually was given regular access to the boats that he longed to have adventures on. At the end of the 12 months he was given an excellent report and the magistrate told Lewis he could now leave Cadets if he wished however it wasn't until reaching the age of 18 that Lewis did. During his time in cadets he earned a vast number of qualifications and awards and still holds the Navy Cadet record for the 1km open water swim.

Despite not being an academically gifted youngster his exemplary report from the Navy Cadets meant that when he reported for national service he was able to choose his own pathway and as such requested to join the Royal Marines. Lewis excelled in basic training and as such in 1997 was sent off to Officer Training College. He served as an officer in the Commando until 2005 when he joined Red Legion. He specialised in amphibious warfare and in 2015 was recruited to head up the Amphibious Warfare Training Course undertaken by all Red Legionnaires. He saw active duty in Seaforth, Royal Seleucid and Lodja.

In May 2023 his term of service reached its end and he was offered a five year extension. He however turned this down after being head hunted by his former commanding officer, Brigadier Richard Kelly, to join his private security business Red-e Security Consultancy. Lewis now leads the Maritime Security Division of the business and offers services aimed at helping ensure merchant shipping can protect themselves.

In 2007 he married Evonne Banks, a surgeon at Aldcliffe Hospital. The two have a daughter born in 2014 called Lara.

Rebecca (Becca) Burrows

Born in 1993 Rebecca hails from the town of Keepton in the Alps. Her father was a local GP and her mother ran a florists. She has an older brother Simon and a younger sister Megan. The family would often spend summer holidays in different countries with her father encouraging the youngsters to get involved in adventurous activities.

At the age of nine Rebecca was considered to have significant potential as a cross country runner and was beginning to gain offers from prestigious private schools for scholarships.  By the age of 11 her parents had made the decision that they would send her to Northfort Girls Academy as a boarder. While Rebecca seemed to plateau in running she did become an excellent science student and in 2011 graduated with top grades in Chemistry, Biology and Maths. She was accepted into the Army College of Higher Education to study medicine.

While at the College she was attached during her training to a unit attached to the Alpine Cadre at her request as it had ties back to her hometown of Keepton. She represented Duke Legion at several of the Ostlake Games with her best performance coming in 2013 when she won a Silver in the Triathlon. In 2018 she graduated as a doctor and as all students at the Army College do entered military service on a minimum ten year contract. She was made, rather unsurprisingly, a member of the Army Medical Corps but was attached to the Alpine Cadre after passing their specific training tests. She has since seen service in Seaforth, Academica and Mavrosia.

In 2022 she passed the various tests required to be a member of the Joint Special Forces Aviation Wing and has her winged dagger as a result. She has however not been permanently placed with the JSFAW but has served as a member of their teams who accompany the Royal Family on overseas visits, mainly as after the first sortie on Ironside One the King discovered her connection to the Alpine Cadre.

As of November 2023 she had just gained promotion to the rank of Captain.

She has served as a medical officer in the Cadre since 2016 and
