Rank: Hauptmann-General (HPT-GEN)

Position: Regiment Commander (RCOM) - 4th Skye Rangers

Medals:

Birthplace: Maria's Elegy, Hesperus II

Age: 45

Sex: Male

Height: 6'2"

Weight: 205 pounds

Distinguishing Physical Characteristics: Black hair, blue eyes, deeply tanned, scars crisscrossing hands and face from lifetime of brawling, barroom fights and injuries from Mech combat. Ocular implant in right eye, necessary after a brutal Skye Rangers mission, adds to what some lancemates consider a frightening appearance.

Brief Personal History: Steeped in the design, construction and use of BattleMechs from his birth in the public housing of Maria's Elegy, capital of the dark mech factory world of Hesperus II, Gallows knows little else but the culture, science and community of Inner Sphere BattleMech combat.

Personality: Quiet, thoughtful, but prone to infectious fits of laughter, and quick to anger. Nurses personal grudges and uses his hatreds and angers to excel in combat.

Motivations/Goals: Suffused with the instincts of loyalty, honor and survival of the Inner Sphere against the depradations of the Clans -- and the Sphere's enemies within -- "Hawkman" Gallows is equipped with the drive and commitment to help build the Skye Rangers into the most successful and dreaded fighting force in the Commonwealth.

Special Skills/Powers: A multipurpose MechWarrior, familiar with all manner of weaponry, fighting styles and team combat formations. Never comfortable in just one mech chassis, Gallows has nevertheless grown most accomplished in the Inner Sphere BattleMechs Dragon and Arctic Wolf. This flexibility has made him ideal for assignment to a variety of lance roles during a large variety of Skye Ranger missions. Also, although an older, grizzled veteran of the unit, Gallows retains a thirst for learning and using new technology. He continually is looking to leverage for his personal success and that of the Rangers, new BattleMechs and weaponry churned out by Inner Sphere science, and captured Clan tech.
