'The Duo' is a alias for a pair of mercenaries and bounty hunters on Urth. They are commonly employed by the South Hills Council of Governments and other governments, along with private companies in "black ops". Though the existance of such a duo is denied by the Council of Governments, they are regularly employed for operations that can not be tied directly to the government. Expendable but reliable.
The duo has achieved a almost legendary status among the military and intelligence sectors, and are known as the bigfoot of the industry; No one really sees them, only the carnage they leave behind.
They are believed to operate out of Tano, though the exact location is unknown. The duo enjoys many under the table gifts from South Hills as payments for their service, such as citizenship to Maxwell, as, following the collaspe of Maxism in Vekaiyu, he was officially stateless.
No officialized pictures of the duo exists, as such, artist renditions are used.
Marcus Kingsley
From a S.H Navy Special Operations Background, Kingsley left the military into private contracting in 2005. Working his first few years with a Serenitech associated company, he went on his own in 2005. Despite his appearance, Marcus has a soft side, as was shown with his taking on of Maxwell during the 2010 Vekaiyun Civil War.
Little else is known of his personality, besides he has a 'get it done' attitude about operations. Kingsley is a crack shot, though leaves most of the technical related aspects of a job to Lockerbie. Kingsley is, by all accounts, the leader of the Duo, and many believe Lockerbie treats him as a brother, if not, a father figure. He is believed to currently be 35. Though a residence in Matthews, Ellis Islands, South Hills is registed in the name of a Marcus Kingsley, Kingsley is never seen in the area.
Maxwell Lockerbie
Note: Maxwell Lockerbie is the name given to him with South Hills Citizenship, his previous Vekaiyun name is unknown.
Maxwell, who simply goes by Max, is a vulpine victim of the 2010 Vekaiyun Civil War, believed to have lost most of his immediate family in the fighting. At the age of 17, he was drafted into the military of Maxist forces, as a pilot, though due to lack of proper documentation during the hectic civil war times, his real name during this time is unknown by intelligence officials.
In a attempt to escape military service for the Maxist forces, which it is believed he disagreed with politically, Max went on the run, and was eventually captured and, was almost executed in the middle of the street, when Marcus, on a operation gone bad, burst through in a firefight with Maxist forces.
The pair found themselves helping eachover escape, with Maxwell knowing the layout of the city to escape. Realizing that Maxwell had no real hope in the wartorn country, Marcus offered him a 'way out', and he accepted. It is believed over the next month, they made their way to the lines of Ikrisia Levinile's forces, and eventually, out of the country.
Somewhere in the process of the duo's escape, Maxwell sustained a large calibre gunshot wound (believed to be 7.62mm) to his upper right ear, leaving a permanent scar, though only a few inches away from impacting his head and surely ending his life, a full recovery was believed to be made despite the visible hole.
Through late 2010 and early 2011, Lockerbie was officially Stateless due to the collapse of Max Venavle's regime in Vekaiyu, though a deal with South Hills intelligence officials granted him a South Hills citizenship in mid 2011.
Though, as a follower of Kingsley's policy of 'money before politics', it is unknown of his position on the current Vekaiyun regime, it was believed he was against the Maxist regime previously in place. Through military training, he is believed to be the pilot, though not a very good one by most accounts, He also is believed to have self-developed computer hacking skills. Though he can handle a gun, he is not nearly the shot Kingsley is. Lockerbie is believed to be 21 or 20.
