Peacekeepers of the Vast/Max Rezal

Template:TOCrightMax Rezal, callsign Quadrant, is a member of the Peacekeepers, tasked to the Horkos and later the Phonoi. Aged 28 Earth years at the outset of the story, he has been involved in the Interstellar League Military his whole adult life, most recently a four-year tour as a Solaran Union-sponsored ISLES special forces operative, flagged solely as an ISLES member.

Handy with his fists, various hand weapons, and anything that shoots, Max is also decently skilled with mechanical technological repairs.

Publicly Known Information

Max is reserved but genial, usually preferring to solve problems with the judicious application of being Big and Scary and letting someone else do the talking. It's not that he's bad at stuff, it's just that he's better at other things. He's a soldier through and through, and likes riding his swoop bike to clear his mind. He's also been known to use it as a light cavalry option during planetside engagements, and as a quick and efficient vehicle for Special Operations.

He rarely shares much about his background or life before he was in the military; he will happily discuss his girlfriend, though. If you catch a look at the inside of his locker, there's a picture stuck to the back surface of a wholesome, blonde, smiling Earth farm girl in a winter coat.

He is a tremendous fan of Sl'im J'iims, despite their poor reputation and negligible nutritional value compared to, say, a D-grade ration chip.

Due to his origins on Trazinus, and his long history with the military, Max has become a part of the very small ISLES SpecOps team that operates without oversight from another organization. Most troops are technically detachments of a member polity's military, flagged dually; Max's unit operates directly under the ISLES military's leadership, and is flagged only with the ISL Pennant.

Relationships with Peacekeeper Cell Members

Quadrant and Picasso were in a barfight together on an ice world, and were -- of course -- the last two men standing.

More recently, Max and Tiny were both arrested in the course of a covert operation; they spent a lot of time trying to convince the police that their badges and papers were legitimate, before being released with a quiet apology.

Meta Knowledge

Max is from Siada. He got away from the place and has never looked back, joining the military academy and then signing up for a tour with the Solaran Union fleet on the far side of the galaxy. During his time at the academy, the suspicion attached to a Siada resident being in the military academy drew the attention of the Solaran Union Military attachés at the ISL Military Academy, whose scrutiny led to a positive outcome in that his skills and dedication were recognized. Presumably, his continued movement through the military, into the Special Operations units of the Solaran Union ISLES detachment, are due to some level of continued support from the Solaran Union Military.

His girlfriend Emily is a trade specialist with FormCorp. During the Terhav VI Incident, she was in the galactic area and headed towards the Terhav system.
