Michael Zimmerman

Michael Zimmerman is a soldier in the 103rd National Army, and a former Recon Specialist. Born in 2907 in New Mombasa, Zimmerman has spent the better half of his life in the army. Spending most of his time in action, Zimmerman is one of the most decorated, and odd, soldiers.

History
Michael past is shrouded in mystery, and not much is known about him before he entered the army. Due to his involvement in Operation: Glassing and Operation: Lost Soul, most of his records are hidden. We do know that he was raised in an average family, with a caring mother. He entered the 394th Training Core when he turned 18. After showing massive success in the core, he joined the Republic Recon Core, and became an amazing soldier. He was the first to complete the Recon Training before the age of 20, at 8 months. He was 19 when he became a Recon Specialist.

As a Recon Specialist, he was a leader in his sector, becoming a massive influence in the core. After 10 years in the Core, he was involved in Operation: Cloudsight. Cloudsight was a raid on a Crimson Confederation base, with the 9th Recon Core involved. While on the mission, Senior Recon Specialist Crowler suddenly attacked Zimmerman. He destroyed his Recon gear, and left him for dead. He was later found by the 103rd Republic Army, and soon after returned to the Recon Core. He would leave soon after Operation: Cloudsight.

After joining the 103rd, he was given the rank of Sargent, and given Warlock Training. He would be assigned with the 4th Division, and work with Stsg. Adrian Williams.

Discovery of the Project Arc.
With the discovery of Project 2051 and James Frowler, Michael began to investigate the project. He clashed with Crowler, since he had to work with him again. He also found a relationship with James, even after his transformation.

City of Mombasa Arc
During the events of Operation: Stolen Warlock, Zimmerman investigated the Russian Workers Union, and a possible link to the Crimson Confederation. He also helped with the investigation into the stolen Warlock, and participated into the Battle of Viceroy. His warlock was destroyed in the battle.

Philosophy
Zimmerman has a 'one for all, all for one' mentality. His main reason for this is his betrayal by Crowler. Since that day, Zimmerman usually thinks that it was because he relied on him. He thinks that he should have gone by himself, and be the catalyst to finish the fight. Now, Zimmerman only thinks that one person can solve problems, and trying to help someone, or be compassionate in some way to someone, will lead to death. This was more solidified with the death of Riley Mason and Adrian Williams.
