Biography
An excellent, natural-born soldier who specializes in urban close-quarters battle, Baron is one of the core members of the Warcorp PMC. He is extremely close with the enigmatic Colonel Miles Coleman – one of Warcorp’s governing Board of Directors and widely known as Warcorp’s "brain."
Baron’s friendship with Coleman, a legendary figure amongst all soldiers, had its beginnings in Baron’s first combat mission. At the time, Lieutenant Miles Coleman, a lead military intelligence officer and rising star for the UAF, was stranded in enemy territory after his transport chopper was shot down returning from a top-secret briefing. Baron, one of the youngest recruits of UAF Special Forces, volunteered for the rescue mission. After many UAF commandos were cut down in an ambush as they assaulted the compound where Coleman was being held, Baron was able to continue the mission and single handedly save and extract the lieutenant, as well as three other survivors, despite his relative lack of combat experience.
Impressed by the young soldier’s natural combat skills, Coleman became a mentor for Baron, and upon Coleman’s personal recommendation, brought him over to the black ops side of UAF Spec Ops. The two men carried out multiple missions throughout the African and Middle Eastern theaters: Coleman as the op commander, with Baron and his men in the field. When Colonel Coleman suddenly betrayed the UAF after Operation Sand Hog (for reasons unknown) and became part of Warcorp, Baron decided to follow suit. Joining Coleman, Baron is known as both Coleman’s personal bodyguard, and his top strike force commander. Coleman continues to send Baron out on the missions of paramount importance to Warcorp's secret operating agenda.
