Mercede Reyes’ story is a common one. She was born on a drab low pop world in the Marches and grew up dreaming of the day she would leave. Her ticket to the wider galaxy came in the form of the Naval Infantry which she enlisted in at the earliest opportunity. Through hard work and determination Mercede rose through the enlisted ranks and held numerous postings both aboard ship and planetside. In time Mercede became well versed in counterinsurgency operations while fighting Hen Jaa proxy forces in the form of Myrmidon mercenaries on the edge of State space. That experience lead to her current assignment as an advisor to local forces combating Chabuli guerrilla fighters across the sector. Although Mercede has access to the full range of marine combat equipment, she prefers to wear light armor in order to promote a more accessible image among the troops she instructs.
Sergeant Reyes is approaching the end of her latest enlistment period and is considering whether to re-up or find a civilian position in line with her professional skillset. It’s not so much that she’s tired of serving the State as she’s begun to feel it’s time to move on in life. Still, Mercede finds great satisfaction in guiding the development of younger people and being an instructor so it seems unlikely she will stray too far from her current lifestyle.
