Profile:

As the oldest and most seasoned warrior on Elita-One's team, there's little Lancer hasn't seen and even less she couldn't find a reason to complain about. Once a bright-eyed engineering student of the Science Academy, eons of stalemated conflicts and fruitless guerrilla assignments have left the femme with little patience or positivity, though it has made a capable warrior out of her. Chromia likes to joke that Lancer has spent too much time around her close friend Huffer, and that his attitude has rubbed off on her. She's not wrong: Lancer can often be found complaining about how a repair job or a rear guard assignment is impossible or pointless while she is simultaneously performing the task with aplomb. Elita knows that Lancer's grousing attitude is simply how the femme is able to deal with the neverending war, and that the armored warrior's ages of experience and impressive damage threshold are invaluable to her team. And her outlook on life has other tactical advantages as well: no matter the size or scope of the plan, Lancer will not hesitate to point out any flaws she sees in it.

Abilities:

In a squad infamous for quick strikes and hit-and-runs, Lancer is the toughest and most well armored member of the team. Her top armor layer is coated in an ablative ceramic that is built to diffuse incoming attacks, and her armoring underneath the coating is still considerable. Her handheld Lance Launcher magnetically accelerates pointed, ferrous nickel slugs at near-sonic speeds and with little flash or noise in case their mission requires stealth, and her Kinetimetric Mace can absorb small amounts of kinetic energy and release it for a more powerful attack.

Weaknesses:

Lancer is not particularly fast or nimble, which can be a large disadvantage on some of the squad's missions that require speed. Her ablative armor coating is labor intensive to replace and maintain, and while she is more than capable of handling the repairs herself it does make it hard to fix on more drawn out engagements.
