File Name:  Almon M. Ellis

Birthplace:  Cleveland, Mississippi, USA

Wiseguy started his military career as an attorney with the U.S. Army’s Judge Advocate General’s Corps, advising military commanders on foreign laws that could influence their military plans.   As he worked his way up the ranks, he began to serve as a liaison with allied nations’ legal authorities, developing strategies for intelligence activities, security assistance, and stability operations.  After being called in on a special assignment to defend a Brigadier General on a bogus charge, the impressed General convinced Wiseguy to put his talents to use with a top-secret counter-terrorism unit.  As part of that unit, he served at the General’s side honing his military knowledge and leadership skills.  When IMPACT was devised by the International Council, it was that General who advocated they appoint Wiseguy as the new team’s head.

“I might officially be the team’s commander, but I know this group can’t accomplish anything without working together as a single entity.  That sounds kind of cliche’, but the cliche’ really gets put to the test on a team like this.  Look at us- we’ve got members from literally all around the globe.  We’ve all got to be fluent in multiple languages just to get basic tasks done.  On high-stakes missions like ours, communication is key- we’ve got to constantly train so we can operate as one and know what the team member beside us is doing without saying a word.  Not to brag, but we’ve been extremely successful on our first string of assignments, so it looks like all that training is paying off.  I believe the team’s success also makes me a better leader because now the team knows they can trust me.  Whatever the situation is, they know they can depend on me to stay calm and come up with a plan to get us all out clean.  I won’t let them down.” 

File Name:  Hedda L. Pulver

Birthplace:  Interlaken, Switzerland

Quarrel served as an officer in the Swiss Armed Forces, leading multiple successful international peacekeeping missions.  She later transferred to the Swiss Federal Intelligence Service (Nachrichtendienst des Bundes), where she was eventually promoted to head up the “Onyx” intelligence gathering system. Longing for more field work, she joined up with Europe’s Special Action Force, where she continued to prove herself as one of the world’s top performers in the military intelligence community.  Upon being appointed to lead IMPACT, Quarrel was one of the first members Wiseguy tapped to work alongside him.  She has an impeccable record in the field, whether it’s in combat or gathering intelligence.  

“Quarrel has a drive to be the best.  It doesn’t matter what it is, she wants to be the best at it.  And I’d have a tough time coming up with something she’s not the best at.  Ok, maybe cooking- she’s not great at that.  But anything that has to do with soldiering or police work, she can’t be beat.  Hiding, sneaking, driving, swimming, fighting- she can do it all, man.  And we all know it.”

File Name:  Samuel A. McCloud

Birthplace:  Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA

Hot Shot grew up right around the corner from the Peterson Space Force Base in Colorado, and realized at a young age he was born to fly.  He received his pilot’s license as soon as legally possible, and went on to graduate at the top of his class from the Aeronautical Engineering program at the U.S. Air Force Academy.  After graduation, he was hired by Northrop Grumman, where he was integral in designing the V.T.O.L. system for the state-of-the-art F-35B.  Not only is Hot Shot a prodigy when it comes to aerospace technology, he’s adamant that he always be the first one to fly any aircraft that he’s developed.  

“I first met Hot Shot when we were investigating the theft of some experimental jet pack components from a top-secret military facility.  Hot Shot was the one who had designed the stolen equipment, so he was brought in to consult with us.  He was noticeably upset about the situation, but his primary concern was that he hadn’t completed the testing, and believed the pack was unsafe to fly- he was worried about the safety of the thieves!  After getting to know him, I realized he was perfect for IMPACT.  He’s the youngest member of the team, but he’s a genius at building planes, and I’ve never seen anyone better in the air.”

File Name:  Anton Garin

Birthplace:  Ukraine

Mammoth was raised by a farming family in an extremely rural part of Ukraine.  Growing up, Mammoth was a relatively small kid who tended to get bullied.  When he turned fifteen, however, he started growing and hasn’t seemed to stop since.  After experiencing his growth spurt, Mammoth decided to use his newfound size and strength to defend the more vulnerable members of society.  He joined the Ukrainian Navy, where he made a name for himself by leading a mission to uncover and dismantle a human trafficking cartel who had been terrorizing Europe and Asia.  When members of the cartel demolished a building, pinning Mammoth’s team inside, Mammoth was able to free himself and single-handedly chased down the Cartel’s leader, making sure he faced justice. 

Mammoth is definitely appropriately named- the guy is just an animal.  He’s big, hairy, uncouth, and makes noises I’ve never heard from any other human.  His looks and demeanor are definitely intimidating, but he’s really just a big teddy bear on the inside.  Nicest guy you’ll ever meet- as long as you’re on the right side of the law.    

File Name:  John Eaglefeather

Birthplace:  Moosonee, Ontario, Canada

Eagle is a member of the Dakota Nation, raised in the wilderness surrounding Hudson Bay, tracking and hunting wildlife.  Eagle joined the Canadian Indigenous Police, and after consulting with his tribal elders, moved on to become a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, serving as a member of the International Operations Branch.  With the RCMP, he was deployed to multiple different countries to develop and maintain the exchange of criminal intelligence, often serving as an advisor to the Canadian Special Operations Forces Command.  After gaining the reputation of being Canada’s top intelligence agent, Eagle then went on to serve with various other special ops units, always proving to be an extremely valuable asset.  With IMPACT, Eagle is once again showing his worth, tracking down information and clues that would otherwise remain unknown.

“Usually calling someone a “sneak” would be considered derogatory, but in Eagle’s case, I mean it as an extreme compliment.  You don’t know this guy is around unless he wants you to know it.  He can sit still in one of his hidey-holes for days at a time while watching a suspect, and he doesn’t need binoculars or parabolic mics to find out what’s going on.  His natural senses are amazing, and the notes he takes are impeccable.  While it may seem like his primary value to the team is gathering information- when the stuff hits the fan, he’s always out front leading the charge.”
