"The Kellas"
Aron Gowrie,"The Kellas"
Lord-Colonel of Wildcat Battalion
Biography
Firstborn to the rulers of Galidraan 3's wild and brutal northern regions, and born just in time to see his peoples at their absolute strongest as a clan-confederacy, the young highland Laird of Clan Gowrie would have the entire Tuath collective bowing in his presence from the moment the public were first blessed with the chance to see him with their own eyes. Always despising the adoration, firstly for his subconscious aversion to the looks on all their faces, then later for not having earned it like his ancient ancestors had in the many centuries before his birth, Aron would soon find himself erring towards considering the military life in Galidraan's land army out of this disdain towards (what Aron alone grew to assume as such) unwarranted adoration.
Enrolling in Millicent University some 600-miles away from the farthest frontiers of his father's ancestral domains, well beyond the Highlands that marked the long north-south border between the Tuath and Woad provinces, the young Laird would take to sporting and scientific subjects when a vast majority around him were excelling in artistic and musical fields, enjoying modern writers where Aron preferred the classics instead. After graduating, the gravitation towards military service was seen as the obvious choice for Gowrie by all who'd endured the insincere, superficial world of civilian-university life; and it was during this stage of peaceful pre-war life where the Kellas would gain his nickname, taking to Sandhurst Military Academy like a duck to water, with it's renowned school for officer-swordsmen being Aron's favourite experience of all.
Military service eventually called for Aron, and all his training would be put to use on Oben, torturing Kaleesh elders and nobles alike on his first deployment, and without a single complaint or pause of internalized protestation to be seen from him in the process. From there, Gowrie would acquit himself admirably in the Second Battle of Bastion, but more-notably in the walkover invasion of Helgard, tackling Captain Bruenn McHugh,"Shugg", to the ground in a successful effort to save him from Helgardi sniper-fire. However, on Nyriaan, after fighting so long for recognition, the Kellas would meet the Lord-Major of Blue-Heart Battalion for the first time, and just months before seeing the former PMC-array become a fully-fledged brigade of the Free-State. Little did he know it at the time, but the brave Tuath's life would be set on a rollercoaster ride of a journey from that moment, starting with the lowest lows he'd ever face as an officer of Blue-Heart Brigade.
From losing his friend (and mentor) to the Amalgam's surprise-attack on Generis, to watching friends and colleagues dying in the distance on Ziost, everything after those harsh experiences would prove to be a struggle of highs and lows on the path to glory, all the joy and misery would be thrown in Gowrie's face in his endless fight to reach Galidraan. Knowing this, the Kellas can only do his best to decide his own fate, trying his utmost to survive the galaxy's greatest battles in the process.
