Now, on a lighter note, Sandra Marcelline, Her lineage has lead to two of our last presidents, and she is one of our most rememberes war heroes and icons, Creating the Elite Venus Close Combat Squad (EVCCS), Creating and Renaming many forts all over the American wastes, and lead the attack that fully removed the BoS from the capitol wasteland, the first step in their eventual Destruction.
Sandra was born the great general Walter Marcelline, and her brother was David Marcelline, another war hero, their lineage has been traced back to prewar, and is one of the highest ranking families in the enclave, having 3 presidents and many Generals to their name, but all of the Marcellines, even the presidents fall under the shadow of the great 5-star general Sandra. She was born in the midwestern parts of the waste, inside fort nixon, the bunker from which her father lead a great campaign. From a young age she was forced to learn forms of self defence, since he didnt want his daughter using guns, her father had her trained in swords and hand to hand combat, this lead to her becoming a fast and strong killing machine.
After years of training, her father finally won the campaign in the mid-west, and was granted the rank of 4-star General, he was charged with watching over and protecting all of the midwest, a task he accepted with pride, sandras brother, also had a momentous step foreward in his life, he was charged with a reclaimation campaign in North alaska, a task he succeded in, Although one of sandras crowning moments occured during this time, they were overshadowed by her father and brothers new ranks and jobs. So sandra decided to take up the offer she had to go to the capitol wastes, to help in a special operation, all she was told was. Sigma.
Upon ariving in the capitol wastes, she was welcomed with blood and honour, killing many BoS troopers in their first training exercise as a squad, and after training, she grew attached to one man in her squad, Raven. It is suggested that they had concieved an illegitimate child, the night before raven died, although the timeline supports this, she also met her future husband a few days after ravens death, so no-one can truly tell.
When sigma squad was finished and The Vault was left colapsed, sandra returned to the midwest, only to receive news that her brother had died and her father was ill with an unknown disease, after her brother was killed she was tasked with taking over his command post in the northa atlantinc, within 2 weeks of her arrival all problems were sorted out and all enemies lied dead, by the time she returned to the midwest her father was in his final hours of life, she sat next to him telling him the stories of her life, right before he died, it is stated that he apologized to her for never being there. Although this could be a lie, many top Librarians beleive that this is tha case.
After her father had died, she was promoted to a 4-star general, and replaced her father, she lead a bloody campaign to retake the midwest, and soon after had recaimed and built many new forts. One of note, is Fort Raven, the home of the Enclave Sniper Corps. Some say that this name was after her first son, Raven, although others who have a knowlege of The Sigma Squad, say it is named after Raven Gladstone.
After 8 more years of work, and another two presidents, sanra was promoted to the one and only 5-Star General, making her the direct leader of all of the enclaves armed troops, bar only to the president. her first act was to retake the capitol wastes, which she did with gusto, after eradicating the BoS's presence, she set her sights on bigger targets, the Western Brotherhood, this was her defining moment and the one that set her in the record books, she used recources she had obtained from a place known as The Pitt, to create war machines and new weapons, giving the enclave the edge over the brotherhood, although they suffered heavy cassualties the brotherhood still fought on and soon became an underground resistance movement, unable to root them out completely, Sandra marcelline decided to take out their places of hiding.
After the crusade against the BoS, she decided to aim her next attack on. The NCR, after a bloody coup, the NCR surrendered to the enclaves might and aided in uprooting the Brotherhood sleeper cells that were dotted around their colonies.
When asked about her life, sandra spoke only these words.
"Why, live life when you can destroy it? I have spent years as a warrior for the enclave and i have enjoyed every miniute of it, i have become something i love, and yes, i have lost along the way, but every experiance i have had, has been for the greater."
Sandra has also mothered two sons and a daughter, named Raven, John and Sarah. She has taught them all different schools of war, her daughter eventually became the leader of the EVCCS, and soon the next 5-Star general. Her two sons because illustrious leaders, of the Enclave Sniper Core, and john, soon became the youngest leader of the United States of America. Thus cementing the marcelline family in Americas History.
