Name: Gideon Clements
Age: 55 (Physical 25, cryogenically suspended for 30 years)
Gender: Male
Height: 5'10'
Weight: 170 lbs.
Eye Color: Hunter Green
Hair Color: Mauve
Ethnicity: Martian
Appearance:
Gideon is a figure of imposing appearance despite not being particularly strongly-built. What immediately draws the attention of anyone who sees him is the plates and cables that seem to wreath his neck and lower face. To most people his bare body would be a half-nightmare of metal cybernetics and pale flesh, but it pales in comparison to the strength in his deeply green eyes. They are the eyes of a man who has lived a lifetime a heartbeat and is hungry for more.

Biography:
Gideon Clements was born on Mars in an underground city that has since faded into history. He grew up in the poor area of his city and merely lucked into being taken in by Metalssiah; a Raven. Gideon grew up learning the trade of Armored Core mercenary work, and when Metalssiah met his end at the hands of an ambushing trio of Ravens for a transgression or revenge Gideon had no idea about he ended up inheriting the remaining resources of his erstwhile master. He managed to eke out a living as a low-ranked Raven until he could hunt down the killers of his master one by one and revenge the man he owed so much to.
His battles ravaged his flesh leading to his now-famous cybernetics, and the path of destruction he carved in the pursuit caught the eye of the Mirage corporation. Seeing the drive of the man and citing the fact he already had a great amount of metal instead of flesh, they came forward to him with an offer: become a test subject for the newly-perfected Lynx project and they would fund his remaining hunt to serve as test data. Gideon agreed to the conditions and with his newly-acquired abilities and backing swiftly hunted down and destroyed the sources of his revenge. He then stuck with them through a number of years and was considered the go-to for their intercompany proxy wars with the other corporations on Mars.
When the bombs were slated to fall he was deemed a valuable asset and was sent into orbit in cryogenic slumber to await linkup with the exodus from the Red Planet. Something went wrong; whether by accident or by vengeful design by someone he'd wronged he had no idea. The craft he'd been in was set adrift for years as it's occupant faded from thought as just another casualty of the end of Mars. Thirty years passed before the vessel he and his machine were trapped in drifted into range of the orbital home of the League of Ruling Companies. The missing link had been found, and was eager to get back to the battlefield.
Mobile Weapon: C-02 Uranus MAVORS
Affiliation: Independent (League ties)
Combat Style: Blindside
Strengths:
Gideon is biomechnically linked into his Armored Core while piloting, giving him a reaction speed that can only be matched by his 'progeny' the newer Lynx. He uses this reaction time to blast about the battlefield like a speeding bullet to smash into an opponent's blindspots with his generation's version of the famed Karasawa energy rifle and dual grenade launchers.
Weaknesses:
In his mad rush to bring down an opponent, he can get tunnel vision about the battlefield around him due to the nature of the AMS system of Mavors. This is a trait that has caused him grief before his Lynx surgery; leading to the majority of his cybernetics.
Model Number: C-02 Uranus MAVORS
Code Name: Mavors
Manufacturer: Mirage
Operator: Gideon Clements
Power Source: Generator
Height: 12 meters
History:
AC Mavors is a very important relic of the past. It's pilot is the first successful and stable prototype of the Lynx-type pilots, and it shows. Despite being one to two generations behind technologically, Mavors does not have the polluting effect of the later-developed Kojima Particle technologies. It is also notably faster than it's physical build would hint at; having been made of at-the-time cutting edge technologies in AC development to keep up with the inhuman speed the pilot would theoretically be able to operate at.
Mavors was the testbed Armored Core for the now-subsumed Mirage efforts to produce a successor method to the Human PLUS project of old. As such, it contains the first properly-working Allegorical Manipulation System (AMS) that would become standard issue in fourth-generation Armored Cores. This gives advanced target acquisition speed and near-unparalleled precision with onboard weaponry.
