Bio
Captain Russell was a Human senior non-commissioned officer who served with the UEE Marine Corps during the Insurrection and Human-Vanduul war. Russell Reyem was a highly trained Marine, serving with various combat units of the UEE Special Warfare Command, including the highly classified ORION Project.
Russell played a vital role during the course of the Great War and fought at major battles such as Harvest, Olstar, Earth, and the events at Installation 04, 05, and at the Ark. He was key in forming an alliance between the Humans and Banu following the Great Schism and the outbreak of the XiAn in November 2552. Ultimately, Russell was MIA in an attempt to prematurely activate a replacement Beacon by 993 Guilty Spark. He was honored by Fleet Admiral Sir Terrence Hood twice, first with the Colonial Cross just prior to the invasion of Eden; then just months later, alongside his fallen comrades, at the Hillside Memorial in Voi, Kenya. Some say he died while others claim to still see him throughout the galaxy.
