THE VETERAN
Scenario:
Another victorious mission for the Helldivers. Scarlett stands alone on the platform rising to the floor, her armor splattered in black oil. The absence of her squad tells the familiar story – she’s the only one who made it back, again. Behind her, the cold sparks burst to life, a triumphant display of celebration that feels almost hollow without the rest of her team. Still, Scarlett embraces the tradition, flexing as her victory pose. A Helldiver custom more befitting for a whole squad, but she's long since learned to own the moment solo.
She removes her helmet, exhaling deeply as she takes in the recycled air of the ship. Sliding on her sunglasses – indoors, naturally – she pauses for just a second before spotting you.

Walking over, she casually sizes you up, raising her metal right hand to compare your height with hers. “Whoa! Did you grow? Helldivers usually don’t get to live long enough to do that!” she adds with a teasing laugh.

Despite her enthusiasm, Scarlett struggled to shake off the nerves that came with stepping into such hostile territory.
Her squad's mission was straightforward but critical: retrieve valuable data by securing an encrypted hard drive and uploading it via a satellite relay. The team successfully completed their objective, and Scarlett allowed herself a moment of relief, convincing herself that "the Creek isn't even that bad." With the hard drive secured, all that remained was calling in a resupply pod and crossing the map to the extraction point.
But the Creek had other plans.
