Physical Description: Talon stands at 5’9, and weighs 155 lbs. His has gray eyes and hair is dark brown and is ear length. He has one tattoo on his back, which he got on a mission to Japan. It’s of a hawk flying, it’s “talons,” reaching out for its prey. He’s semi-muscular and his skin is tanned from the sun.
Personality: Everything is a joke to him. He learned really early in life to not take life seriously or you’ll never be satisfied with yourself. Though his personality can sometimes be frivolous, he has a great attention span and enjoys getting the task at hand accomplished quickly; more to give him a chance to relax than to be punctual. He has a weakness for the same sex, though his genes were for those of a straight male, this minor flaw he never lets on to those in psy-ops for fear that they’ll correct the problem. He’s claustrophobic, but it’s not as bad as most extreme cases; hence can leave in the small barracks and not be bothered. He enjoys training as much as he enjoys relaxing in his barracks and would do both at the same time if he could.
History: X5- 624 is a clone of the now deceased X5-623 who was killed during a routine training when they were six years old. He had been close to his “brother” and when he found him shot through the head and slain by friendly fire he quickly grew a tough skin and willed himself to be like his brother in everyway. When put through training at an early age, he would master whatever task was set to him within an hour of being taught. He had an affinity for guns and learned to snipe moving targets at large distances. His fighting skills were extraordinary has well. He could beat his opponent’s blind-folded. He didn’t need his eyes; he could picture his opponent’s next move in his mind.
At thirteen he learned to pilot several aircrafts, learned, but didn’t excel in opportunistic defense, a technique he’s still learning today.
624 and his unit were deployed in the field multiple times. He contributed his strength and skills to defeating soldiers in Africa, Cuba, and Brazil, and once completed a solo mission without outside help for his transmitter malfunctioned after landing clumsily from a plane while parachuting to his target.
One of his last missions hindered him the most. He and another X5, his best friend Chase, X5-593 were to enter the city of Bandar Abbas in Iran, find and deactivate a bomb in the middle of the city. The retrieval of the bomb went without a hitch, but finding that they couldn’t deactivate the bomb, opening the casing would have set it off; they had to take it from the city and allow it to explode in the surrounding desert. With only 30 minutes before detonation, they drove to what appeared to be the outskirts of the town and placed the bomb deep in the sand.
What 624 didn’t fathom was that at the exact moment of detonation, two Iranian women would come out of nowhere and walk in the line of fire. He barely got his words out for them to run when the bomb exploded, killing the women instantly.
He and X5-593 were debriefed and having the history and background he had with the other soldier, he took the blame for the entire incident, and was placed in psy-ops for reevaluation and was sent to mandatory seclusion from the rest of the units for three weeks. He never regretted taking the blame though it did give him the name of “unstable” among the units.
He worked his way back to being trusted by his superiors by training hard and never making another slip up. He has been on small mission in the U.S, and is currently preparing to be deployed for a deep cover solo mission.
