"Whoever says he is in the light and hates his brother is still in darkness."
Backstory
Bobby lived a normal life, he went to school, played football with friends and talked to girls in his spare time, he very rarely got into trouble and stayed out of harms way. On Bobby's 16 birthday his father killed himself due to a mix of Bipolar and Schizophrenia, after his fathers passing Bobby found him self involved with gang related activities such as selling drugs, chibbing rival gang members and robberies. Bobby and a few fellow gang members attempted to rob a car they thought to be empty, upon cracking the boot of the car 2 men exited the car pointing guns at those trying to break into their car, Bobby froze up, leading to him being beaten by the 2 men, they took his wallet and left him for dead, Bobby laid there until a man in a white 3 piece suit came over too him, the man offered Bobby an actual role in real criminal activities, Bobby accepted the offer almost instantly and began working for the man. One of Bobby's first tasks was to gather information on a rival criminal organisation, he was to break into one of their fronts and see what he could find, he was given a Browning Hi-Power in case shit hit the fan and he needed protection, he did this task without being detected, because of this Bobby was promoted and was given another task. Bobby's second task was to secure an arms deal with some low life American gangs, it turned into a shouting match between Bobby and the gang he was trying to sell to, he calmed down the situation and managed to secure the deal. Task after task after task Bobby had worked himself all the way up the chain of command and he was now entrusted with access to the guns whenever he felt he could secure a deal, he was also given a fairly large WW2 Subchaser, it had the weapons removed and it was rebranded as a fishing boat / Cabin Cruiser for one of the Organisations fronts however it was pretty much Bobby's personal boat.
In the later years of Bobby's career he became sloppy and lost the will to care, this lead to MI5 tracking him down at a dock in Dundee, it was a day like any other, Bobby had just woken up and as usual he looked outside his window, however this morning it was vastly different as upon looking through the window he saw a large amount of unmarked cars and police boats, he also saw more than a few people pointing guns at his boat, Bobby understandably flicked on the boat and started hauling ass, he also began shooting at the authorities chasing him. After a few hours of trying to lose authorities in the open water and some navigation trouble Bobby had made it to the Isle of Arran.
One day rifts started opening in the sky, tears in reality with shit pouring out of them, Bobby was rightfully scared during this so he decided to haul ass back to the Scottish mainland however he noticed the same there, he grabbed an M14 that was stashed in the boat and he started to kill anything that came out of the rifts after seeing that this didnt make a difference Bobby decided to just hide in his boat, praying that everything would blow over, it did not.
Bobby lived in the Scottish wilds, he saw his beloved country change around him as years went by, it got so bad that Bobby decided to head to the nearest civilisation, however upon arriving to the town of Dundee Bobby found it in ruin, he also found the locals armed to the teeth and decided to sell what he had to them as he wished to become friendly with the locals in order to find some answers and to keep his head, he found out that some of the aliens passing through the rifts managed to take over earth in 7 hours, he heard of cities so melancholy it made even the toughest men sad, he began heading to one of these cities C31 as he wished to get back on his grift and to stock up on food. He snuck in and used one of the IDs he traded for back in Dundee "Bobby Johnson" was his new name.
The Firebomb
"They threw a grenade during the attack, I was foolish and overstayed my welcome, my skin is a mess, it is a burden of my sin.. If only I had spoken out... If only I had left my spot sooner alas, I was greedy and wrathful, I deserve my punishment.."
"What a fool I was... I shall wear this burden with shame... There is nothing I can do now.."The Firing Range
Cities
"This city is burned into my retinas, I cannot escape my visions of it..."City 24: "A rather quiet city, it is usually quite calm, the lucky ones get to come here. It is very scenic, gorgeous, perfect. The people who reside here are nice, they do not hate for the sake of hating, they are welcoming and they help the unfortunate, I am ashamed of what I have to do however I wish to save this dying world from those who invade it, I shall bare my sin, I shall carry its weight on my back, I shall carry this eternal burden that I bring upon myself, I am sorry to those that I must kill, there isnt much left for you anyway.."
"This city isnt home, however it is not far off.."City 31: "The prior capital to my home country, what have they done to it.. The castle now operates as a combine nexus, the pipes have been stripped from their owners, no longer shall I hear a serenade of pure Scottish pride, such a shame.. It is nothing more than a burning memory now.."
"What have they done to you? the old town has been converting into a dumping ground? The city is now a massive industry? Yet they thirst for more? The castle, I will never forget it, it always put a smile on my face... God forbid they defile it anymore..."Redemption
PTSD
"Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil... let this not be a mere second industrial seventeen.. Let us prosper.. dear lord.."FACTION RELATIONSHIPS

Vortigaunts: "You.. You are a special kind, you hold the secrets to the universe.. You hold everything in your strangely shaped hands and you dont even know it..."
"You can see what us people cant, you can communicate through the 4th dimension or under the theory of wave particle duality, you are a mystery to not only the laws written by our people but a mystery to the laws near stated by our universe, the lord has crossed our kind for good reason, be it to fight the combine? Be it to escape to the cosmos? Maybe even to create weapons to rival that of the combine? Whatever the reason may be, it is one that shall stump me for the rest of time..."
Universal Union: "Despite all the suffering you cause and the lives you ruin, you have made an amazing empire."
Civil Workers: "You break your back, slaving away for those that you could easily place below you, I respect you greatly for doing what you do"
Civil Protection: "You all train very well, I am proud of you for that I sometimes wish there were rebels that trained like you. You are very loyal, well some of you at least, you die by your ideals and I can respect you for that."
Citizens: "You are all blissfully unaware, from loyalist to underclass, I love you all I wish for some to be better however."
Lambda: "You showed us kindness at first, I showed you respect, that quickly fell off, you are more dysfunctional that a group of window lickers lost in transit... I was a fool to put my trust into you... You killed many... There is so much you could have done and so little you did, you truly are a foul bunch, you pay us to do your dirty work yet fail to remind us of the job at hand, however you did entrust us with some great fighters, may they rest in peace."
Resistance: "You mean well, however some of you dont have the fight that is required to be a rebel and others need to work on themselves, for first impressions matter the most."

Ezra: "You are blissfully unaware, you remind me of my infant sister, God rest her soul."
'Niner': "I was unsure about you at first, however I soon saw that you were more rebel than most rebels, you fought with bravery and prowess, you charged the enemy with little equipment, I wish I could have done more. You are like a brother to me, where ever you end up I wish you the best."
Derrick: "You were a jackboot, at first you seemed timid, but our final battle together proved otherwise. You rushed the enemy head on, you had but a 9mm pistol, I do not know if the lord will forgive you so where ever you land, I wish you luck."
'The Preacher': "I have never met you, however one day I will. Your stories have helped me over come my greatest fears and culled my eternal sadness, I thank you."
'Cicada': "I knew where your mind was at, I saw the wretched person you tried so hard not to be, however your final battle was spectacular, you did not catch a case of cold feet and you stuck in the fight. You earned your place in heaven, not many manage to do that."
Maddy: "You seem like an honest person, all you want is change in the world and I can help you with that. You havent done anything spectacular so far however, as per the word of the lord I love you as my own."
Konrad: "You are pure, an innocent man, I do not know why you stick around with most of us rebels as we are not pure we are but, liars, thieves, all round scoundrels yet you are none of them. I pray for you safety and most of all I pray for your survival."

The Merchant: "You know little of my people, my kind, you act wise however you are foolish, as foolish as new born child, I understand your lack of knowledge, I do not understand your putrid personality. The Lord has not written of your kind, he will not, however non the less I shall accept you as my own, for I wish to stay in the light."
Luke: "Another disgruntled jackboot, whilst I did not serve with him long I can only assume that he was as brave as the other two, I pray that I am correct in my statement."
Old Luke: "You showed me kindness, you talked to me as an equal, you did not see yourself higher than me.. Where did you go.."
Ross: "You were nothing more than a buffer for Tiffany, mearly keeping her from getting herself killed, let us hope you are not around to get between me and Tiffany, I am sick of empty threats.."
Tiffany: "You are but a fool, you are lucky that I can see room for improvement, you are lucky that I see you at all really, when you stick a gun in my face, pull the trigger, I wish to blow your head off of your frail body... I must suppress thoughts like these, however for you? No... I shall let them run rampent, you are lucky that I see potential in you.."
'Taco': "A coward, yellow belly doesn't even begin to cut it... You had potential... And you squandered.... Such a shame... You met a cowards fate, you deserved nothing more, trying to dick ride off of my success... You cried out for me to help you... I ignored it... if you were meant to live you would have helped yourself, alas the lord was not so kind.. You had ambitions, I was like that once."
Pathfinder: "You are edgier than a freshly sharpened knife, nothing you do is cool, you are not strong, you only have 'The Broker' backing you, you are given everything you need. Your leadership is poor, you abandoned me... I can see why... You cannot get rid of me that easily however... I am a pilgrim... I made my way here.. it calls me, like a siren in the distance. You are nothing more than a waste, a talentless shell, you'd best thank the lord for my loving nature, I would have killed you in a mere second, however I am unable too, I am trapped behind moral barriers..."
Mabre: "You protected Tiffany when she went against your orders, you talked to me like I was a fool, you talked as if you had experience, you had nothing. You got given a free pass to an insane arsenal just because Lyall was a carpet muncher.. However... That is fine, you stray from the old testament and I congratulate you for that, it takes balls spitting on an entire religion... You left me however, you are lucky I am a pilgrim..."
'Rice': "You assisted me without question.... While I do know little of you there is a light I see in you.."
'Grad': "A likeable concrete eater, he shows bravery and is most definitely seen by god, he is a decent man, a good one maybe.. Who knows, I know very little about him"
'The Paladin': "I never met you, only heard of you, your actions give you life after death and those very actions tell me that you were a man of god... It is fading nowadays, people do not wish to believe because they think they know enough about science when they really know fuck all... You are a good man where ever you are today, you showed many people that our religion still stands and that no-matter the circumstance the lord is always watching, I must thank him for giving live to our species and indirectly creating you. May you live on in light, please do use it to guide faithless souls...
'The New Paladin': "I am glad that I was able to assist you, I have never been one of biology or medicine therefor I am sorry I was unable to patch your wounds.. However I am glad to be a man of physics and most definitely a man of the lord.. I must thank him for letting me show you the light and for letting me show you sense, you believed you were smaller than a mere mouse, however you were much larger than that.. I can only pray for your safety in these oh so faithless times, please do spread the word of the lord and please show your light to the people, they much of it... lest I forget, Law 1 is inertia, Law 2 is force and Law 3 is opposite and equal reactions (sorry if any of these are wrong Im pretty tired)
