Bio:
Trooper Tori Wu was hired mid-3022 at System – New Syrtis to fill a vacant slot in the Iron Dingoes Black Ops unit, * “The Werewolves”. Prior to this time, Trooper Wu studied veterinary sciences, before taking work as a model to pay her tuition.
During this time, she excelled at athletics, and managed to train under a skilled martial artist, who saw her potential and ensured she secure government funding to complete her degree. She continued studying martial arts and eventually saw some minor success as a holo-actress, but eventually was recruited by various sports companies to do model work, and excelled at various extreme sports events, rising to become an award-winning sportswoman in numerous diverse activities, such as halo-jumping, motocross, and deep-sea diving.
Her ancestry, however, with a Liao-born mother, had proven a limiting factor in her career. She was never able to “break-through”, and by twenty-five (25) was seen as having reached her potential as a model. She disagreed.
Joining the local militia, she tried to use her sports background to propel her potential as a trooper. Though she primarily worked as a paramedic, qualifying easily, she learned small arms and quickly proved exceptional at driving and maintaining medical equipment.
After a four-year tour with the New Syrtis militia, she spent some time studying martial arts with her old master, and worked part-time at a dog shelter, and part-time doing various model work. Eventually, Wu grew tired of the sedentary life, and was offered a chance at something new, work with the mercenary troop, the Iron Dingoes. New challenges and a new start to her life seemed appropriate, plus the money was very good. She accepted, and in mid-3022, became a member of their special forces team, The Werewolves.
