We’ve just recently revealed renders and biographies for the main characters in upcoming RTS Stormrise – today we’re going to take a look at two of the big players in the game, one for both the Sai and the Echelon. First up is contestant #1…

Geist, why must you look so awesome? Every time I see you I think you have six mags from PSO.

Name: Geist

Age: 40+

Rank: Principle

Not much is known about Geist’s history, other than he first appeared years ago acting as a general for the Sai leader Meridian.

Many Echelon commanders took this near emotionless enigma to be an obedient animal, lacking in intelligence and battlefield savvy. Their underestimation would prove quite often fatal as Geist would be victorious in many encounters along the frontier.

His appearance can be startling, covered in Sai lesions on all but his neck and head, his mouth is obscured by a mask. Geist’s large frame exudes Sai energy and he wields a wealth of offensive power unequalled amongst the Sai.

Geist is an enigma to Echelon commanders, he seems to follow an unspoken code of honor, being unfailingly polite on one hand and then crushing his enemies remorselessly on the other.

“My Fellow Americans… a change is coming… to RTS on consoles.”

(Come on, I’m not the only one who thinks they look kind of similar… right?)

Name: Donovan Blake

Age: 55

Title: Chancellor

Chancellor Donovan Blake has served the Echelon for many years. Elected Chancellor 10 years ago, He has shown stout resolve in preserving the peace between the Sai and the Echelon, even when the situation has become heated.

A powerful orator, Chancellor Blake uses the full force of his personality to try and keep the disparate elements of the Sai at peace with each other and the protecting forces of the Echelon.

Chancellor Blake is well known for his honesty and desire for stability.
