Biography: As a boy he was like all the other kids. He like running around and playing with other. He had a love for life and showed compassion to all living things. As time went on and Maddock grew he started to show his love to things other then wildlife. A shy yet attractive young lady at his high-school named Cherle was the new object of his affection.

As every story go's after they met and began to talk they found out they had much in-common thus they hits it off, and of course they started to date. They said that they would never leave one another and they would get married once out of high school... But G.U.N. had other plans... See Maddock comes from a long line of soldiers and when he started high school his father wanted him to signup at a recruiting station so when he got out of high school his future would be set in stone.Only thing is he didn't want anything to do with G.U.N. So hea refused.

Well when he got out of high school he had went and got a job so he and Cherle could live together. One day after work when he got home he got into a fight with Cherle. A bad one. She told hims thats its was his fault that she had disapointed her parents by not going to collage. It was because of him. They continued to bicker back and forth, it became quite heated. It ended with Maddock storming out of the house.

In his time of need he went to the local bar and got HAMMERED. He was acting like a Russin roulette of emotion. One sec he would be all smiles the next a sobbing mess. Well the barkeep had had about enuff of this kind of carrying on, so he kicked him out. Maddock stumbleing around in a drunkin stuper before finally going to the only person he could think of that could help.. His father.

This was not the best move he had ever made. His father still wanted to have Maddock join up in the army. His father had no gripes about tricking or manipulating his son into doing it. So when he got there he and his father talked for a bit and he told his father about the fight he had. "Well son hows about we pay her back for what she said?" His father said. "Howz are wry supost ta du that?" Maddock durnkinly replyed. "Do something unexspected. Someting you know she wouldn't like... Like joining the army." "Hmmm the army aye? *Hick* Hmm.. zounds like a plan! Off we go!"

So thats just what they did. Maddock went and signed up at the recruting staions.. with the help of his "loveing" father of corse. Well he ended up crashing at his fathers place that night. the next morning he wokeup with a killer headache, and got a ride how from his father... He didn't remember to much of that night but he did remember going to the recruiting station. But thats about all. When he got home Cherle was all apologies.

They made up, but what was done is done. Nothing could cange the course he was on now. One day, after work, on his way home he saw a strange car parked out in front of his house with the word "G.U.N." in big white letters on the side. He knew something was wrong. When he enter his home the owner of the car was sitting on his couch talking to Cherle.

Cherle was in tears. Maddock immediately began to demand answers to who the man was and why he was here. The man simply stood and said. "Is your name.... *looks at papper* Maddock Glint?" Maddock quickly answered. "Yes. Who are you!?" He simply replied with. "My name is not of importance I'm from G.U.N. Your country needs you son."

This shocked him, his mind was raceing. Then it hit him the night of his and Cherle's big fight. He knew what had happened. "Father... did you trick me?" o.O "Boy?" "Sir sorry but this is a mistake, I can't go." "You don't have a choice, your sighed up, your going." Maddock knew what this meant there was no use arguing. All he could do know was say good bye. "Cherle... I'm sorry. I gotta go now... wait for me will ya?" Cherle shook her head yes.

Maddock walked over to Cherle and kissed her good bye, then left out of the door. Like all soldier he went threw basic training and learned all the basics a good soldier should know. Then they asked him what he wanted to do in the army. He replied "nothing..." "come on boy what do you want to do?" He looked up at the man.

He must of bin in his mid to late 30s. Maddock said. " Well I always wanted to help people and I was thinking about be a doctor so... I don't know..." The man itched his square jaw line and said. "Hmm a doctor ay? Lets put you in training for a field medic. Hows that sound? Maddock looked away and said. "sounds good sir." "Alright here you go."

The man gave him a slip telling him were to head to. /Medical Academy/ So he started in the Medical Academy were he learned all the things needed to field dress any and every kind of wound that could happen on the battle field. He learned how frail life is and how to save it. But his first time in the field was met with catastrophe. His staff sargeant was hit by some shrapnel form an RPG colliding with one of the company's hummers sending metal bits in all directions.

Ambushed.

He ran over to his sarg while the rest of the company engaged the aggressors and quickly looked over his sargeant and saw that he had bin hit in the belly and across the chest, tearing his close apart and had more or lets split him open yet it seamed as those it hadn't cut or severed any intestine. " Your going to be alright sarg ok? Just stay with me." As he said this he had pull out some gauss and bandages and began to apply them.

The sargeant who was no green horn to battle looked up at him with glazed eye and said. "Do what you have to." Maddock knew he couldn't save him out here he need to operate... so he called for help from one of the private first classes who ran over and ask him what is it he needed? Maddock quickly replied. "I need to move this man if I'm going to operate on him!"

The private hastily replied. "Alright lets move!" Maddock pulled out his collapsible gurney, then him and the private placed the sarg on it, and picked it up, and carry him off. The sarg ended up dyeing of blood loss before they could get him out of there. For the first time he had seen some ones life taken away. It was then he vowed to never let an injured man die, Friend or Foe, in the field if he could help it.

As time went on he did just that, saving every soldier, and civilian wounded on the battle field he could. Because of this he was awarded medals of bravery and courage as well as a few promotions. Then on every shore leave he would spend as much time with Cherle as he could. Sadly that wasn't much time. Then one day in the field as he was patching a man up, a ricochet bullet hit him in his left eye at a 45' angle blinding him in that eye and shattering his eye socket. He was only 26 when this happened. He was sent home on honorably discharge.

But when he got back the rift that had bin forming betwen Cherle and himself was to large. He was sent away by Cherle, the woman he onced loved. She told him they had bin drifting apart ever since he first left. Sad and rejected he went from bar to bar drinking him self into a sobbing stupor until he passed out on a side walk. He had no were to go, his dad had died when he was still in the serves from a heart attack and his mom was in a home for the elderly.

Yet instead of mopping around he went back to the army.... The only home he had left. He try to get back out in the field but... his blindness made him a liability on the field. He begged to be allowed some form of military roll. So they asked if he would like to like to instruct at the Medical Academy, the olny place were he could be of uses. He agreed in a heartbeat. Anything was better then going back to a world that didn't want him. But he was no longer the same man he once was but a shell of his former self. The light in his eyes had dimd. His passion for life have weakened and faded. So... He stayed at the Academy until he forced to retire. He then went off into the desert to live the life of a hermit. Over many years he felt an emptiness begin to grow slowly inside him, a void if you will.
He now leaves his solitude to venture out into the world. One. Last. Time. And this is were his story leaves off.
