Sniper
Captain Bronagh Cregan is a sniper of the Global Defense Forces hailing from Ireland.[1] She is a specialist who can dispatch high-priority targets from extreme distances.[2]
Background
While she has a reputation of a coldblooded assassin due to her long list of confirmed kills, Captain Bronagh Cregan prefers the sniper in particular because the distance makes it less personal. Point the barrel, pull the trigger, pack up and go home. An accurate and deadly marksman, and a perfectionist, Captain Cregan studied Mathematics before joining GDF, which she credits in part for her long-distance sharpshooting prowess.
Utilizing Tempest-derived technology, Captain Cregan's gear is able to engage in a sort of adaptive camouflage which renders her all but invisible to the naked eye. Taking advantage of the relative security of this technology, she is able to deliver extremely precise and damaging shots when firing from stealth.
Cregan is a master athlete, which often helps keep her out of harm's way on the battlefield. Excellent for securing territory ahead of the enemy, recon missions, and avoiding vehicles which are aiming to run her down, Cregan's sprints have saved her from detection and death many times.[3]
