Commentary
This was my very first character. After reading about the archetypes, I chose to make a tank; it seemed useful to start with someone rugged. In the character editor I made him fairly short and chose to put a rook emblem on his chest. Those decisions led to his name, description, and battle cry.
I lucked out on his color. Ochre goes extremely well with the colors of the Rock and Brimstone armors. It clashed with the neon green of Crystal armor, though. Eventually a character customization feature was added, and I was able to change that neon green to something that looked better.
He originally changed SGs just to assist the Digital Defenders (DD) with a friendly base raid. He stayed for more base raids; there were only a few. When Ochre turned 50 he transferred to DD's "epic" group, which existed for their level 50 guys.
