Fire Nymph
Real Name: Renee Signoret
Nationality: French
Renee may be the youngest “enlisted” soldier in the Liberation Front army. Responsible for at least 17 different fires, she was arrested for arson in France. Given the option to join the Liberation Front forces or go to jail, she chose the former.
Her colleagues often remark that “fire seems to obey her commands.” While she resents all authority figures and prefers to work alone, Fire Nymph has even less love for the Order of Nations. She’s slowly learning that, to defeat them, she must follow orders and work closely with her peers.

Hellbent
Real Name: Raul Lago
Nationality: Brazilian
Raul was once a simple farmer living outside of Salvador with his family. Suspected by the Order of Nations to be providing provisions to the Shadow Revolution, Raul’s farm and neighboring city were razed to the ground with a horrifying orbital bombardment. Raul was the only survivor.
After the massacre, Raul enlisted into the Liberation Front and took up the name “Hellbent”. Seeing his survival in the wake of his family’s deaths as a curse, Hellbent feels attuned to the afterlife and stalks his enemy as a self-imposed shamanic loner. Hellbent will pursue any opportunity to hunt the men responsible for his family’s death.

- Roaring Rampage of Revenge/You Killed My Family: Against not only the Order of Nations but also the Shadow Revolution for not stepping in to help prevent the destruction of his hometown.
- Sole Survivor: Of the Brazilian massacre by the Order of Nations.
- Tank Goodness: See Ace Custom above.
- What a Piece of Junk: To say that Hellbent's tank is in bad shape is something of an understatement; the entire left side of the turret has apparently been blown out by a shot that came in through the right. He did not bother to repair nor replace it, as he claims the damage is used "as a reminder for the hundreds of battles that he has participated in", in addition to his bodily scars.
The Judge
Real Name: Judge Raymond Walker
Nationality: American (Texan)
As a Dallas judge, Raymond Walker had an idealized view of the law. As lawlessness and rioting erupted Walker refused to stand with the Order of Nations and upheld the peace, barricading his courthouse and distributing food to the remaining law-abiding citizens.
Walker watched helplessly as marauders attacked his courthouse, burning it to the ground with 200 innocent civilians inside. Soon after, Walker joined the Liberation Front, using his strong ethics and adherence to military structure to bring law to the lawless and protect the innocent.

- EMP: Has this as an ability.
- Macross Missile Massacre: His vehicle being based on the Archimedes.

The Liberation Front showed up in time to save him, but not the 200 souls inside his courthouse (which was set on fire by aforesaid bandits).
- Reasonable Authority Figure: Gathered the surviving residents of his town into the courthouse, where he provided them food, shelter, and protection. He also maintained law and order among the residents by personally mediating any disputes that broke out, as well as ensuring that anyone accused of committing an offence would receive a fair trial and just punishment.

Decibel
Real Name: Johan Brink
Nationality: South African Dutch
As a certified audiophile, Johan Brink has always been interested in audio engineering. By the time he was sixteen he had developed a new type of audio speaker that was smaller than a baseball. At twenty-two he had formed his own company in Cape Town and begun a burgeoning empire in home audio equipment. Brink Audio went on to become a household brand in most of Europe and Asia with Johan continually developing breakthrough products.
Eventually, Johan built an impressive recording studio, furnished with his equipment and state of the art musical instruments. He invited recording artists from around the world to work at his studio for free and enjoyed rubbing elbows with pop stars, opera singers and other celebrities.
But when the stock markets around the world plummeted, his friends no longer had money to throw around. Johan found himself alone in his recording studio, isolated and miserable. He had an epiphany. It occurred to him he had spent so much time within the bubble of celebrity life that he had lost touch with the rest of the world. The entire world suffered now and he could no longer stomach the idea of not helping out in some way.
With many ties to the ADS (an arms maker with its home operation in South Africa), Johan used both his connections and his money to convince the ADS to make him a unique vehicle. After outfitting it with several one-of-a-kind sonic-based weapons, Johan offered his services to any army that fought against the Order of Nations. At present, Johan brings his leadership and weaponry to bear wherever requested by the forces of "good."
