Biography
Before the Company
Born in Houston, Kalliste was always about the average. Average scores, never really noticed by anyone, except by her parents. Since young age, until the death of her parents, her off-pressure fun was given in the way of guns, since her father was an enthusiast, where she received several gunning lessons and had a knack for pistol models rather than rifles.
At age nineteen, her parents died, and she was faced with bills, taxes and even sued by the government of Liberty for being unable to pay her parents funeral. While working as a local politic assistant for a full year to pay off the debts, she developed a keen distate for Liberty's government and the way that the lawful organizations worked, but gaining a taste for the political schemes that were developed in the background. What she seeked was liberty, after all. She then decides to leave the 'Average' behind and takes the path of a criminal, to be known and to finally give Liberty a little taste of revenge, cutting ties with her sister, as she was already an adult, with no records, and in no need to be connected to her.
From various freelancing jobs, to a prolonged engagement with several LGF personnel in Denver, the once normal Kalliste that was known, disapeared to become a cruel and happy-go lucky gun-ho killer. The young glint on her eyes was replaced by the dead stare of one that doesn't feel anything anymore, and that if you are deserving death, then death it is. Even with that record, due to her proficiency in transforming herself, from dying her hair, dress code and behaviour, she continued to be a Liberty citizen, working in several regular political jobs back in Houston, giving not even one hint that she worked as a crazy blooded gunner.
She became quite known by her alias of Sliver in the streets, making money of random heists and standard assassinations, during those days. One particular job was the Heist of the Casino High Roller Fortune, where due to the sheer number of security personnel, more than the heist planner expected, she killed 13 of them in less than 10 minutes. With that, she turned around to the heist planner and said a eerie: "Problem solved."
However, in the mid 810's, something happened in her life, that made her even leave Liberty for a prolongued time, where she was spotted working with the Rheinland Military, Molly's and other random organizations, being jailed countless times. As she sometimes says she is a widower, that could be the special event that triggered her departure.
Joining the Company
In 817 A.S., a known Outcast pirate was operating in Colorado when Kalliste (under contract with Kishiro at that time acting as security), was ordered to scout ahead upon entering the Colorado System. In less than ten minutes, she found the Tridente downing the lane. Without thinking, she relayed the intelligence back to the convoy head, and engaged the Tridente on her own. Doing some damage but not the enough to even survive the small battle, two Reavers, by the color of Ghost and Carmine, showed up, lining up the outcast gunship. With a couple of good shots by her, the gunship thruster was destroyed, making short work of it.
Somewhat impressed with her resilience and gun accuracy, both Ghost and Carmine told her to contact Copper for a trial for the Company. Two days later, she was passing out under the table alongside Copper in their first of many poker games.
The Reaver Before
After a year, the Reaver Mercenary Company became the fore front of the mercenary way within Sirius, and Silver is their most visible face.
With over 6000 confirmed deaths, two issued death warrants and the category of Terrorist in Rheinland and Bretonia, her face, signature ships and trash talk under fire acted as psychological factor in any battle.
With the increase in workload, she decided to open the colors to anyone that would take it.. That is, if they survive the trainee phase. And with the enourmous income pouring into the coffers of the Company, she looked to expand their business, their ways of the mercenary business while she plowed on into the battlefields of Sirius.
Santa Muerte
"I'm goin' to Hell on a road trip. Don't warn them, they might close the door." Was the last sentence that some of Reaver Merc. Co. heard before her disappearance that lasted three months. In that time, she was caught by the Corsair Empire in a furious fight that decimated all the titans of the Empire Kappa fleet and that is now written in their history as the birth of Santa Muerte.
Who and what is Santa Muerte?
After that fight, as she was ready to die at last and seeing that it was still out of her reach, her peace at last, her mind fractured. Several episodes of how a famished, chained, beaten, burned, and electrocuted woman that just wouldn't die, killed all of her torturers with prophecies and laughter, even killing one with a strand of her own hair, ran deep into the Corsair society.
As the Corsair Empire was and still is going through a insurgent need of more food to feed its people and the poverty and malnourishment of more than half of its population, mainly due to several hits in their convoy lines and pirate raids by the Reaver Merc. Co., a prophecy once told by a holy man and written in their holy book that is the creed of their faith, many cried that Santa Muerte was born in the form of Kalliste Silver.
“Millán’s Words to the Desperate...
"No se desesperen. Porque ninguno de vosotros vivirá para ver a la Muerte caminando entre nosotros."
"Y con ella vendrá una plaga que sólo la misma Muerte podrá exterminar."
"Con esto, la Muerte se tornará Santa. Santa Muerte."
Elder Buonocore saw in this a chance to gain further control over the population and more weight in the Elder Council, and took in Kalliste Silver and groomed her to become a Corsair Saint. Not even three months after, almost all of the Brotherhood and the people that follows their path, believes and prays to Santa Muerte. Such religious manifestation is now spreading as wild fire through out the entire Corsair Empire.
Her agenda, that she took to heart, is to help the Corsair Empire to get back on its feet and present a formidable opponent to any and all enemies she deems fit to eradicate "to keep balance in the universe" as she now says.
The Reaver Now
Ever since the disappearance, the Reaver Merc. Co. is being run by Nancy Sweetwater, an ex-Mandalorian that Silver saved from the burrows of Fuchu and of the Kusari Government, and that is also increasing their status in Sirius with multiple successful hits in Bretonia and Liberty.
Now, with more freedom due to her ever increasing leverage and power within the Corsair Empire, Silver is getting slowly back into the mercenary game to keep the spotlight of Sirius aimed at where she wants. Away from the resurging Corsair Empire. And to keep in check all of her assets and knowledge of all the happenings in Sirius.
Personality
Quick to anger, quicker to shoot and even more quicker to get drunk, she is prone to loose her accent composure in the middle of a battle to instigate her targets in order for them to create openings.
One trait of her is that she is always spinning her wedding ring when thinking and that she only draws her pistol 'Nani' when someone is about to die.
There is also the matter of having a personal feud with Rheinlanders and Bretonians. Although not well explained, it seems she was left hanging in the middle of a battle by Bretonians and that the Rheinlanders are maybe the cause of the death of her late husband.
She respects very few people, especially those of a more advanced age and experience, David 'Copper' Chambers being one that she has in high esteem alongside Jayna 'Amethyst' Osborne. She sees however, a young sister in Nancy 'Sangria' Sweetwater and keeps an eye out to help the new head of the Reaver Merc. Co. Steve 'Sapphire' Holloway, an ex-Reaver is also a person that Silver trusts to some extent and tries to guide to whatever she thinks is the right path for the already veteran mercenary.
Personal Ships
-- Attention, this is a summary of the ships she is known to fly --
The Black Dragon - SRD X12 Hogosha VHF Black/Blue Betty
Without doubt, a force of nature, this all black Dragon is normally seen doing it's serpentine movements in the middle of massive fighter brawls in Sirius. Not the best ship for duels, it is however a killer in group fights, and with Copper's improvements, the engines work at 110% capacity, decreasing it's life expectancy but as she said once "Nothing lives forever. Not even Betty."
Variants
---Black Betty: A murderous swift beast, hooked with Xeno-like weaponry and Gallic EMP's, the prime hunter in Silver's eyes and without a doubt, her favorite ship.
---Blue Betty: A one-hit thunderstorm, born out of blue lighting and death. Heavy Royal Gallic guns coupled with CODE weaponry and a Mini-Razor, this ship hits like a hammer and is speedy enough to dodge the aftermath.
---Green Betty: With Gaian weaponry couple with civilian debilitators, this variant already ripped many Templar and Hussar hulls that could cause the Bretonian workers building them to cry.
The FA Bomber Mamoru - Killing Mama
Powerful, slender, and deadly, this bomber is the favorite vessel of Kalliste. Known in Rheinland and in the Omegas by her targets as the 'Hail Mary', this vessel in her hands already killed more people than the Omega-3 War.
This vessel is also getting to be known in the Hamburg front, as the war between Liberty and Rheinland continues. Several reports claim that this vessel is now the origin of the 'Silver Rush' where several Rheinland Capital vessels undock from Hamburg to destroy it.
There is also the matter of this ship is a Junker nightmare since the famous Reaver/Congress brawls in New York and Omega-41 that originated the now current junker trend of staying in dock distance to their bases while a Reaver is in system.
Kalliste is known to get drunk in it all the time of day or even in the middle of a hunt.
Factional Views
Since her debut as Santa Muerte, Silver stays close to the Corsair Empire as much as she can, but still gives a hand from time to time to the Reavers as she can.
