Killzone 2's Alpha Squad
Killzone 2 is perhaps the most-anticipated PS3 release in the console's short history. It's got graphics to die for, action that'll melt your eyeballs and multiplayer that'll keep you fragging long into 2009. Given that the Guerrilla Games-developed shooter is set to blow everyone and their dog away when it comes out in February, we here at VideoGamer.com thought we'd bring you a series of Killzone-tastic features every day this week to help you get in the mood (if you're not already!). Today, we bring you an in-depth look at Alpha Squad, the four-man team sent to the planet of Helghan to bring down big bad guy Scolar Visari.
===========================================================
Sergeant Sev
Military Profile
Full name: Tomas Sevchenko
ISA Security # - 021-332-3390-99
Service: 6 years
Rank: Sergeant First Class
Appearance
Gender: Male
Age: 33
Height: 6'2
Weight: 215 lbs
Eyes: Dark, volcanic blue
Hair: Black (but shaven headed)
Distinguishing marks: Scar on right cheek, Theater tattoo from Arcturus '69 on palm of left hand
Biography
Sev is Killzone 2's main man, and who you'll be controlling throughout the game. He is Guerrilla Games' answer to Master Chief and Marcus Fenix. He is, as you'd expect, a hulking marine, with Arnie-sized arms and a somewhat interesting haircut. Born to a solid, respectable family in the northern city of Vekta, Sev enlisted in the army against his parents' wishes, seeing it as his patriotic duty to defend the homeland against Helghast aggression. This youthful idealism acquired a more personal edge when members of his own family suffered during the Helghast invasion, an incident which still plagues Sev with nightmares. Despite this, Sev displays a responsible, by-the-book approach to his duties and the mission. He's not as well-educated as his friend Garza, with whom he fought numerous battles on Arcturus, but he is intelligent, observant and a fast learner. He is also a natural leader and by the time of the Helghan deployment had led units of up to a hundred men, earning mentions in dispatches and attracting the attention of Colonel Templar himself. Templar saw something of himself in Sev and followed his rise through the ranks, until a fatality in Alpha opened up the position of second-in-command to Rico.

Master Sergeant Rico Velasquez
Military Profile
Full name: Ricardo Velasquez
ISA Security # - 021-332-4130-55
Service: 12 years
Rank: Master Sergeant
Appearance
Gender: Male
Age: 38
Height: 6'1
Weight: 240 lbs
Eyes: Black
Hair: Black
Skin: Dark Brown
Distinguishing marks: Scar from KZL
Biography
Rico is Killzone's version of Augustus "Cole Train" Cole from the Gears of War series. He's big, absorbs loads of hits and has a tough-talking attitude. He's also, effectively, your boss, being the battle-hardened veteran of the war on Vetka and leader of Alpha Squad, and spends much of the game by your side dishing out orders. Coming from a large family in the poor industrial south of Vekta, Rico was a born fighter, first with his older brothers, then on the streets. He found himself drifting into petty crime before enlisting in the armed forces to escape trouble. The military swiftly became his first true home and he never looked back. His naturally combative nature was honed by training and numerous battles, turning him into a superbly effective soldier. After his squad was wiped out by Helghast, Rico fought alongside Captain (now Colonel) Templar during the SD platform crisis, becoming a national hero. However, during the battle to free Vekta from occupation, he was captured by the Helghast and tricked into betraying his own side by the ISA traitor General Stratson.

===========================================================
Lance Corporal Garza
Military Profile
Full name: Dante Garza
ISA Security # - 021-332-4110-20
Service: 6 years
Rank: Lance Corporal (sniper specialist)
Appearance
Gender: Male
Age: 31
Height: 5'11
Weight: 180 lbs
Eyes: Black
Hair: Black
Skin: Light brown
Distinguishing marks: Theater tattoo from Arcturus '69 on palm of left hand
Biography
As Alpha Squad's sniper specialist you'll find Garza hanging back in most firefights, offering support with ranged weapons, as well as "sniping" with smart-ass comments. He also spends much of the game fixing broken machinery due to his mechanics skills. The same generation as Sev, with whom he bonded during several bloody campaigns before being picked for Alpha, he is entirely comfortable to serve with him as second-in-command of the squad, the pair forming a natural foil to the more seasoned Rico and Natko. Having dropped out of numerous schools and colleges, Garza was sent by his well-to-do family to a military academy to 'straighten him out'. Instead he found his niche there, discovering in military camaraderie the warmth and appreciation lacking from his rigid upbringing.
===========================================================
Corporal Natko
Military Profile
Full name: Shawn Natko
ISA Security # - 021-332-4130-55
Service: 10 years
Rank: Corporal
Appearance
Gender: Male
Age: 39
Height: 6'5
Weight: 220 lbs
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Red
Distinguishing marks: Wears a mustache and beard
Biography
Natko's the cynical pessimist of Alpha Squad. His bandanna and scruffy appearance reflect his general outlook on life - he doesn't much care. He's an experienced soldier though, a demolitions expert and a founding member of Alpha. You'll find that he likes getting up close and personal in battles with the Helghast - he specialises in hand to hand combat and will often whip out his combat knife to gut his enemy, or you'll see him run ahead and smash the Helghast with the butt of his rifle. His expertise in these areas is primarily down to his time spent on the road as a kid during the Grand Depression and subsequent work on the terranium rigs. Like Rico, he is older than Sev and Garza and comes from a relatively humble background, enlisting with many others when the Helghast first appeared to threaten the peace of the colonies.. |
