Biography
Isabella Court was born in the country of Katagalugan on Mars on February 21, 2625. Her father was the owner of a trucking business and a Reserve Marine while her mother was an elementary school teacher. During her childhood, she was very interested in the martial arts and began learning the different components of Filipino Martial Arts, becoming proficiently skilled in Eskrima and Panantukan.

When she was nine years old, her father left home to fight in the Orionus War. This was a time in which she took considerably difficult because of her relationship with her father. Things would become even worse after hearing that her father had died during the war. She vented her confusion, anger, and sorrow through her martial arts eventually becoming a great fighter but the hole that her father's death left in her heart would never be fixed, no matter how hard she trained.

When she turned seventeen, she considered joining the Galactic Marines, however, her mother was against it as she felt Isabella could die like her father. Out of respect for her mother, Isabella didn't join the marines, however, she did eventually join Colonial Defense and was, for a time, able to stay home on Mars. As she grew older and her friends began leaving, however, Isabella decided that it was time for her to move on aswell.

For the next few years, she would be transferred from colony to colony, steadily growing in the ranks. She would soon sign up to join the URTs, a special division of the Colonial Defense to test her increased skill. She would pass the entry exam with flying colors and be recommended to lead by former colleagues. Around this time, she would be sent to Angelis, the mega-colony, to lead the growing URTs there.

Very few, who are able to spend more time with her, note that she has an inner-warmth that can be seen on rare occasions when she briefly drops her guard. She demands respect without actually demanding it and is able to garner loyalty through pure skill.
