Archer Hewett

After working in the corporate world for years as a marine and then a troubleshooter on various battlefields and in several operations, Archer found himself in chaos during the Fall. First taken off an op to be sent to a war that made no sense against an allied corp turned rival, then cut off as the TITANs arose, he began to take a different view of the tactics of corporations and how they used their men. Before that, he was purely a company man, but that cut off and time in the resistance and recovery efforts during and after the Fall taught him that blind obedience was not the virtue that his training had taught him.   But the reality of things were he was not an anarchist, and not a frontier person, so that became muddled as he drifted back into work for Direct Action. He did carry some of that with him in that he viewed the larger picture with much more clarity, and saw how his men were used up for questionable goals. His objective became not just to fulfill his orders, but to preserve the men under him too. This made his men more efficient and more willing to do their best for him, but stifled his position - the rapid ascent he'd been experiencing before the Fall was cut short. That is... until Jamy Cooker came with an offer. He didn't know how she'd pull it off- he'd pissed off superiors a bit too much, unwilling to put their lives at risk for anything but the objective, and declining to participate in the internecine struggles in a corporate environment. But somehow she did, and he found himself free to lead his own unit, something that had a vanishingly small chance of happening.   As Station head of the contract on Prospect, he teaches his men to deescalate rather than over respond, and to have empathy for those they police and for the officers on station that they train. He's been very effective in the role. However, he sees a few things that make him want to move on as soon as possible. First, the station is a powder keg, especially with the other corps moving in. There's a struggle here that he can't see, and it doesn't make him confortable. Second, he's had to fill the ranks with people he doesn't know. He's managed it so far, but it does mean that they react in ways that he doesn't expect. Third, his employer isn't being completely honest about why they're here. He knows why she didn't want him to bring people he knew and had experience with- and he can respect the move, even as he distrusts it. But he also knows that she wants the contract to be successful.   All said, the station is ready to blow up in his face, and he has to continue to walk the tightrope until he can train the locals so they can end the contract.
