Age: 21
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Appearance:
Personality: Janice was always a little on the wild side to say the least in the heat of battle, often taking big, but calculated risks to complete tasks if need be, in some occasions, some even doubt her sanity when she's fighting as she had been known to giggle madly from time to time when things get intense enough. Though despite all of this, she tended to be more of an introvert when she was away from the heat of battle, typically when she's off duty really, preferring to spend her free time alone, sometimes even losing herself in her own thoughts for a few moments. In general, she was always a strong willed, mildly rebellious, and yet an enigmatic girl, usually able to keep her head in even the most direst of situations, even if she does indeed start to act a little less than sane when she's really into a battle, she still manages to stay "aloof" just enough to improvise in the case of a dire situation.
History: Raised on an more agriculture based planet, Janice used to be quite the troublemaker, whenever she wasn't wandering about, she would often set fire to things, typically dry grass or sometimes even crops themselves. She was around the age of 10 when she managed to figure out how to make a molotov, and her parents would prefer "not to discuss such matters". However, despite the trouble she caused, her skill with explosives was well noted amongst people who knew her as she grew up, and her uncanny obsession with fire sometimes. By the time she hit the age of 11, the horrors of war started to hit her, the ever advancing covenant invasion and the heavy casualties they've left behind each time. Soon enough, she signed up for the UNSC Marine Corps, enduring tough training with little to no complaint, her mind was really set on advancing in the ranks and "kicking some major Covie ass" as she had put it. As years passed her by and various heated battles with the covenent here and there, her skills on the battlefield were impressive enough to get her enlisted as an official ODST more or less, and as team Epsilon's newest recruit so far, she seems to be holding her own quite well to say the least.
Hobbies: Spending time alone, reading up on new prototype weapons, blowing things up (typically in training simulations), and sometimes even singing, though she wouldn't be caught dead letting someone else hear her (she's very touchy about that sorta thing).
