Name: Wilhelmina Burke. But everyone calls her either Mina or Commander.
Age: 32
Appearance: Mina's hair is nearly always pulled back into a severe ponytail or a bun. All of her shirts are either long sleeved or one sleeved, and she keeps her left arm covered at all times. She's got enough scars to last a lifetime, a particularly nasty one rising from what remains of her left shoulder, up her neck and fading under her left eye. It's easily her most noticeable feature. Also her left arm is completely prosthetic metal, and super high tech and totally awesome.
Picture/PB: PB: Josie Maran
Personality: Mina is pretty much HBIC at all times. She's not without compassion, but her soldiers know her to be all business, all the time. And it's really hard to blame her for it, since she does a lot of keeping shit in line, and she has to be the bad guy quite often. She demands respect, and she doesn't tolerate insubordination from anyone, and it'll get dealt with sooner or later.
Mina is basically as bitter as one can get, and she's definitely jaded, and it sort of happened almost suddenly. She's never really been a ray of sunshine, but the past five or so years have taken a heavy toll on her. It's fairly rare to see Mina smile around anyone besides Lily. She's basically emotionally stuntedit's hereditary. She can be extremely sentimental at times, but that's not a side of herself she likes to show off.
Mina is also pretty much mad, all the time. She can be extremely spiteful when she feels like it. It's not the sort of fly off the handle rage one might expect from her, but more of a restrained, simmering-just-under-the-surface anger that's probably going to be there for the long haul.
Powers: Healing factor, enhanced senses.
Weaknesses: For all the good her healing factor does her, she's basically human. And she's BROKEN EMOTIONALLY.
Other Skills: Mina thinks. That's an awesome skill. Also her metal arm is extremely strong, and hooked up to a lot of computer systems so she can do fancy things with just a twitch. It also doubles as a canon, which is nice. She's also very good at hand-to-hand combat. Rose has worked with her on mental barriers, and hers is the equivalent to Fort Knox just out of sheer stubbornnessand no finesse
History: Mina was born, and then she grew up, and then Armok took over the world when she was about 21. When she was 25, she got married. At 27, she had her daughter Lily. Her mother died in a raid to save her younger sister, Callie, although Callie had lost her mind long before rescue was possible. It was barely three years later when she lost her husband, and her arm in the same attack, leaving her scarred. Worse than that, Lily wouldn't come near her metal arm at all for months. Essentially a series of unfortunate events and ramifications have made her a very hard person to deal with on a personal level, but damn if she doesn't make a good leader.
Somewhere along the way, she found herself in charge of the Resistance sort of.
