Martin Wilson

Martin Wilson, also known as Colossus, is the leader of the Slayer Brotherhood's Andromeda group. He is one of the major supporting characters and plays a role in all planned Arcs.

He is first introduced in Arc 1 where he plays a role in Scorpio's perspective. He is shown as a capable member of the team even after his mechanized armor is destroyed, but his leadership position is often outshadowed by Scorpio despite Martin being the official leader of Andromeda.

Appearance
Martin has medium length gray hair, a short gray beard and blue eyes. He usually wears a modified Alliance uniform with the insignia replaced with Slayer brotherhood symbols. Martin's legs are cybernetic, due to this he wears short shorts to avoid fabric getting stuck into the joints, apparently this has happened before when he first recieved his prosthetics.

Personality
Martin's personality is described as gentle and kind, he almost never loses his cool and always openly supports his team members. He treats even enemies with care, evident in his treatment of Felz Yurbak after defeating him in Arc 1. He has almost an obsession with protecting others, most likely rooting from past trauma, according to Martin he even chose to fight in a mech suit because it would give others a bigger obstacle to hide behind.

History
Martin was born into a wealthy military family on Terra. His mother, Mona Barbaros, was a naval officer and his father a former commander in the stellar marines. His mother was almost always away in the navy so Martin was almost exclusively raised by his father, he was expected to join the military and was trained by his father from a very young age.

Martin joined the military when he turned 17. He was at first ridiculed by his fellow cadets for his height, but he quickly earned their respect thanks to his father's pre-emptive training. He became quite closely acquinted with another cadet, Robert Callahang, who he spent most of his time with in the academy. After graduating from basic training, Martin chose to become a Mech pilot after seeing some of them in action at a Military force projection event. He eventually graduated and became a fully fledged pilot at the age of 21. He joined the 91st Mechanized infantry battallion.

When Martin was 23 his battalion was transferred under the leadership of Admiral Nigel Khornewal and his Wolf Pack. He was also reunited with Callahang who was serving as a ship captain under Khornewal's fleet. Under the Wolf Pack, Martin and his Battalion fought many battles, mostly quelling local rebellions and fighting the early version of the Syndicate. During this time Martin also developed great respect towards Admiral Khornewal due to his compassion and leadership.

After 8 years of serving under Khornewal, Martin noticed a change in his superior. Khornewal had become cold and cruel towards those around him, and he no longer took his soldiers' lives into account during mission planning. Unbeknownst to Martin this was actually Zero-Eight, a separate personality which had taken over Khornewal's body after he had witnessed the death of his significant other, Lucia Wolbach. This sudden change in Khornewal caused Martin to lose respect in him. Martin still continued to serve under the Wolf Pack until a year later, where during a battle against Syndicate forces, Khornewal sent the 91st to punch through a choke point the enemy was holding. Martin's battalion entered the chokepoint where they were quickly surrounded and gunned down, Martin's mech was hit by an anti-tank rocket which caused the cockpit to collapse and crush his legs and him to lose conciousness. He was later recovered by an Alliance rescue team and taken into a medical frigate where his legs had to be amputated and replaced with mechanical prosthetics.

After the incident which led to the deaths of Martin's entire battallion except him and three others, he decided to leave the military. He travelled to an unknown backwater world where he lived for two years, he was eventually discovered by a Slayer Brotherhood recruiter, after discussion Martin decided to accept the recruiter's offer and join the Brotherhood. He joined an unknown group where he recieved a modified version of the MK3 Mechanized infantry suit he had during his time in the military. He served under his group for 19 years, eventually being promoted to captain and allowed his own group. He travelled back to Terra where he eventually met four people, Felix Svenson, Gunther Schäfer, Grace Osman and Terry Javelin, with whom he founded the Andromeda group.

Martin still serves the Slayer Brotherhood as the leader of the Andromeda Group.

Abilities
Fighting style: Martin is trained in hand to hand combat, he isn't particularly strong, infact he is physically the weakest in Andromeda, but regardless he can fight hand to hand quite well if the need arises. His cybernetic legs in particular are quite dangerous.

Mech suit: Most of the time Martin fights inside of his Modified MK3 Mechanized infantry suit. It allows him to use various weapons, fire missiles and lift heavy objects. The suit is fitted with an internal shield generator which protects it against small arms fire.
