Did
you ever meet a man so spooky, he's sexy as hell? Did a glance from
his dark eyes make you shiver? Then maybe you met Wil VanLipsig from
my sci-fi series. He's been described as dangerously handsome,
wickedly attractive and (dare I say) smokin' hot. Of course, the
smoking part could apply to the devastation and waste he leaves
behind him on the battlefield.
Wil
is a complex character—at once dangerous and deadly, as well as
honorable and protective. He's been an assassin, but only took jobs
where he knew for a fact that the target needed killing. He's even
gone so far as to protect a target from another killer.
Though
he can calculate the percentages of casualties of a battle with a
quiet efficiency, he does his best to keep them as low as possible.
He doesn't believe in wanton loss of life. The Galactic Marines
require the study of his battle plans for all officers in training. A
General once said, “VanLipsigs plans are a Symphony of Destruction.
As carefully orchestrated as a concerto, he maneuvers the pieces of
his chaotic chess set.”
By
some miracle, Wil has lived through and walked away from, more
battles than most men see in ten lifetimes. Some would say he's
blessed, but he's convinced the Devil himself keeps him alive, afraid
that if Wil dies, he'll kill Satan and take over.
Despite
his brutal background, Wil loves deeply. He's terrible at expressing
it in words, but does his best to show his love in other ways. He is
generous, protective, cold, calculating, manipulative, loving,
gregarious, and introverted. He is a walking, talking contradiction
who adheres to a code of honor that very few people can understand.
One
thing that everyone can agree on about Wil VanLipsig, it's best to
stay on his good side, because his enemies have a very short life
expectancy. If you see him coming, it's already too late.
