Mezik Kraznikov

"'The twin angels of the Cosmos Squadron soar high, faster than thunder, breaching the sky. Smiting down the unworthy with storms of flame and destruction born from the hate of a millennium. The eye hesitated to its purpose, the hand struck down as he was told, laying waste to what was left of humanity. Both disappeared, their wings clipped from the devastation. The battle of DC has been lost, our fates are now sealed.' -Commander Alister Frieze, 2165, 1 Month Before Extinction of Arcturus 13V"

Mezik is a person trying to survive in a vast world he was never built to be in. He is a highly skilled spy, intelligence gatherer, and ace combat pilot. He is mainly laid back, trying to stay out of things, as he knows what getting in too deep does to a person. He doesn't have much in the way of goals other than survive using the skills he has gathered most of his life. He is successful on that front but that has created some enemies in his way, they are lucky he is as laid back, lest they face his wrath. Nobody who has faced his wrath has survived to tell the tale.

His original timeline was wiped out by a nuclear extinction event caused by a resource war between Russia and the United States, he was on the side of the Russians. He was one of the most feared pilots in the war, earning him the nickname of "Eye of God". Along with Cosmos-1, his wingman, who was named "Hand of God". It eventually grew to a worldwide attack, causing WWIV, as humanity was barely clutching onto its technology. Until boom, the entirety of humanity gone, except for him. After being hit by debris from a blast caused one of his maneuver engines to send him into 5D, he eventually came back to find nothing but ash and rubble.

Personality
Mezik is mainly laid back and doesn't try to get his hands dirty. He is curious though and will follow any lead on potential information he could sell, the stranger the better. However, if you do get him angry enough, he is ruthless, he can and will hunt people who have double crossed him too much, them ending up killed by a tactical infrared laser blast from the skies. He values personal freedom to do whatever he wants, although is willing to accept guidance whenever needed, as long as it doesn't interfere with his life style. Those who do so are more likely to get on his bad side than anything, so if you try to contain him, he will eventually find a way to kill you.

The Illumina
His plane, the Illumina, is top of the line for the 2100s at least. It has been modified in many ways: on command 5D travel, better pressurization for space travel, immunity to chrono-holds and tethers, along with many adjustments he himself likely made. The thing is a beast, able to go multiple times the speed of sound, in normal airspace even. The thing is built for and based around mobility, if you don't get hit the more chances you have of killing the enemy or getting valuable information back to base. They are also built for heavy radiation protection and projectile defenses, as it was built to deliver Neutronium payloads, a single missile being enough to level an entire city. It was only ever made for the Cosmos Squadron due to that, 3 are destroyed, 1 is his, 1 other is unknown.
