| name | Yuri Jade | |
| rp world | Gaera MAC | |
| birthdate | 5th Kazeros 3067 | |
| birthplace | Northern Solasia | |
| current residence | MAC Igala A | |
| occupation | Corporal in MAC | |
| family | Aleksandr Grondavich, father, and Ivanna Grondavich, mother | |
| race | Human | |
| physical description | Yuri stands 1.8 meters tall, though his Warrior personality manages to seem quite a bit taller. He has platinum blond hair, which is short, but is a mess. His Maverick personality manages to pass it off as "tousled." | |
| typical clothing | Yuri almost always wears his piloting suit. His Warrior personality does it so he is always ready for battle. His Maverick personality does it because it makes it SO much easier to pick up chicks. Unlike his hair, he keeps it in immaculate condition. | |
| personality | Yuri has a split personality, due to a significant event in his history. The personalities are not aware that they are in fact seperate personalities. Each sees the other as its dark side. Maverick, the original aspect of Yuri, is easygoing and laid back. While he recognizes his duty to Clan Jade Falcon, he enjoys spending his time carousing and womanizing. Overall, he is pretty fun to be around, if one can get around his delusional nature. One thing no one ever gets to note is that Maverick is actually nowhere near as good a pilot as his counterpart.
The Warrior personality is quite different. He lives for combat, for the rush of seeing the enemy utterly crushed without once breaking the code of zellbreigen, and for the field of honor. He is an almost frighteningly good pilot, and spends most of the time he has control (and is not in actual battle) in the simulator. He is also highly proficient in the theory and application of battlefield tactics. He bears a special hatred for his "dark side," and it is his negative psychic influence that is the source of Maverick's supernatural curse. He is definitely the dominant personality, and whenever battle or conflict calls, he can easily subsume Maverick. Other times, it is more of a battle, but this attribute alone shows who is really- and increasingly- in control. | |
| religious beliefs | Yuri ostensibly follows a strict druidic religion that does not even allow the use of stone circles, but he has performed so many acts that would excommunicate him that this is probably not technically true. | |
| drunk type | Hilarious, often unintentionally. | |

Yuri Jade is a member of Gaera MAC, a proficient sniper, and all-around psychotic scary person. He holds the rank of Corporal. He would be ranked much higher, but his superiors are afraid of what would happen if he were actually allowed to issue orders in the field. He pilots a 'Mech of his own design, the Apophis.
History
Yuri Jade was born Yuri Grondavich, in northern Solasia. He had a fairly normal childhood, and joined Gaera MAC out of patriotism and a desire to use his military rank as a way to pick up chicks. As it happened, his quick reflexes and in-your-face attitude made him ideal for the armored division.
Things were looking up for young Yuri, and it seemed he would have a fast-paced career full of wacky hijinks and insubordination, with perhaps even a soundtrack done by Kenny Loggins, when Fate intervened. Yuri was just beginning his training on a real Auracore Armor, bu something had gone wrong. Instead of a friendly symbiote with a meek ego to blend with, he better to gain practice with not opening one's mind too wide to the Tek armor, a symbiote who called herself Desdemona had somehow ended up in the armor. Desdemona, as Yuri quickly learned, was an extremely willful and powerful symbiote, and she easily overwhelmed Yuri's mind. In fact, she tried to occupy it. As Desdemona's consciousness flowed into Yuri, the mental pressure proved too much for both of them, and for one deeply intimate yet excruciatingly painful moment, Yuri and Desdemona were as one consciousness, like two planets colliding. This state could not remain for long, however, and the composite mind shattered into a million ego fragments, and did its best to reform. As it happened, it got it wrong. Where there was Desdemona and Yuri, there was now Desdemona and Yuri and a third, which could almost be called a child of the two minds, except that it was more accurate to say that it was Yuri, except scored with aspects of Desdemona's consciousness like a ball of Play-Doh abraded against another.
