Rachel is a member of the Ares Firewatch however she has transitioned from active duty firearms to management. While she still lets the guns do the talking on the range and sometimes on hunting trips, she has mostly moved on to letting others do the actual fighting. As a link between the higher management of Ares and the fighting units of the Firewatch, she performs invaluable services for the megacorporation. Her primary goal is to eradicate the bug threat within Ares, and her life has been in danger countless times because of it. Therefore, she appears at a meeting heavily armed and in full body armor rather than in business wear. Since she still holds the record for the most kills with heavy weapons, she also gives lessons to selected students in the proper use of weapons. She has a diplomatic nature, detests sycophants and pays respect to veterans of all kinds. However, if you betray her or Ares, you'd better have a good story ready, because she might just put a bullet in you or send one of her teams after you. | |||

Overview
Rachel is a member of the Ares Firewatch however she has transitioned from active duty firearms to management.

Her primary goal is to eradicate the bug threat within Ares, and her life has been in danger countless times because of it. Therefore, she appears at a meeting heavily armed and in full body armor rather than in business wear. Since she still holds the record for the most kills with heavy weapons, she also gives lessons to selected students in the proper use of weapons. She has a diplomatic nature, detests sycophants and pays respect to veterans of all kinds. However, if you betray her or Ares, you'd better have a good story ready, because she might just put a bullet in you or send one of her teams after you.
