Name: Ganymede (Elissa Forest)
Age: 26
Gender: Female
Alignment: Mercenary
Personality: The leader of the mercenary band known as the Jupiter Crew, Ganymede is renowned for her flawless improvisations in battle. She works toward being completely impossible for her enemies to predict, and appears to be extremely good at it. Her practiced swiftness only adds to her ability to lose the enemy in confusion, and she takes pride every time she hears an irritated “What in the…?!”
While Ganymede does push her teammates to their limits, she does make a point in knowing what their limits are, and ensures that they don’t burn themselves out by trying too hard. She is not afraid to call a retreat if she knows the Crew is losing, and she finds fighting for honour and glory a ridiculous concept. She, like the rest of the Crew, fight for money, and only for money, and she knows the reputation will come on its own.
Despite her being the Crew’s superior, Ganymede does take advice from the others in the group, and puts it to use if she has no better ideas of her own. She typically relies on Europa, the Crew’s tactician, to provide a basic plan of action; she then improvises when it’s needed.
Outside of battle, Ganymede is a sensible, even-tempered creature. She is not easily angered, and is essentially impervious to offense. However, she knows the value of secrecy: she does not divulge anything private about herself, or that someone else has related to her, nor does she ask anything similar of anyone else. The one thing that aggravates her most is someone persistently asking her something she doesn’t feel comfortable with answering.
Appearance: Ganymede has dark brown fur with a single, wide black stripe down her back. Her eyes are a sparkling blue, and her long hair is no lighter than obsidian. She usually wears slightly faded jeans with a tear in one knee, as well as a black t-shirt under a brown bomber jacket with the Jupiter Crew insignia on her right shoulder. She cuts a small nick into the left sleeve of the jacket for every battle that the Jupiter Crew wins for their employers; the nicks are rapidly approaching one hundred in number.
Weapons: Ganymede’s armament of choice is a grapnel, which is basically an oversized fishhook on a rope. She also uses this as an impromptu mode of transportation, swinging or climbing the rope to cross previously insurmountable boundaries. As a backup weapon, she keeps a compact, but comparatively powerful assault rifle handy.
Special Powers: Ganymede is unbelievably accurate with her grapnel. She can hit a target at ten meters that most rabbits would be lucky to hit at two.

Name: Callisto (Aaron Forest)
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Alignment: Mercenary
Personality: Ganymede’s twin brother Callisto is a fearsome force in himself, and an invaluable addition to the Jupiter Crew. He’s the stolid fighter of the group, stopping at nothing to achieve his goals. While considerably less agile in comparison to many other rabbits, he is still comparatively strong, which is indescribably useful in battle. This is somewhat negated by the fact that he occasionally overestimates his power, and does something overly risky without entirely thinking it through first, which often leads to very complicated situations.
Callisto is probably the most outspoken of the Jupiter Crew, voicing his thoughts or opinions with hardly the slightest impetus. While his interjections are, on occasion, more helpful than not, he has gotten “the look” from Ganymede more times than he can count.
Callisto is extremely protective of his sister, despite denying it to anyone who observes it. He has taken hits for her in the past, including a bullet that missed his heart by less than an inch, and fights doubly as hard when she can’t fight at all. These acts do not go unnoticed by Ganymede, and she has made note that if Callisto didn’t get into such trouble so often, she would reciprocate without a moment’s thought.
Appearance: Excluding the obvious physical differences between genders, Callisto’s outward appearance matches his sister’s; the only things that are dissimilar are that Callisto’s hair is much shorter than Ganymede’s, and his eyes are a darker blue. He usually wears a pair of navy blue sweatpants, and a short-sleeved denim jacket with the Jupiter Crew insignia on its right shoulder, and he never seems to take off the black digital wristwatch on his right hand. Also, underneath his jacket, one can still see the remains of several wounds he has taken in the past, including the entry wound of the bullet that nearly took his life.
Weapons: Callisto makes use of an extremely powerful pulse laser blaster called the Andromeda, which can both fire small bursts at a relatively rapid pace, or, when fully charged, loose a blast strong enough to level a small to midsized bunker.
Special Powers: None.

Name: Europa (Kristen Rivers)
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Alignment: Mercenary
Personality: Funk’s older sister Europa makes up for her lack of physical strength by being the strategist for the Jupiter Crew, and she is always the voice of wisdom when it comes to establishing a plan of action. Fortunately for the Crew, Europa’s plans usually have ample room for error, but not enough that any of those involved lose their focus. She usually puts detail only into the instructions of her partners in the Crew, with few exceptions, simply because she knows how Ganymede, Callisto, Io, and she herself works. Anyone else for whom she strategizes usually ends up with one of three tasks: cover, defend, or attack.
Europa is notoriously focused on her job, and is very rarely fazed by anything. The only events that really affect her is if one of her fellow Crewmates, or her brother Funk, is hurt or disabled in battle, in which case she will do her best to cover them. As well, she outright refuses to fight against Funk, nor will she help her team if his life is at stake.
Appearance: Europa has royal blue fur covering the vast majority of her body, excepting her navy blue hands, feet, tailtip, and eartips, and a narrow white strip across her navel. Her brown eyes are slightly hidden behind her rust-coloured hair, which is somewhat longer than shoulder-length and consistently falling partially across her face. Unlike her brother, she is quite slim, and she has some definition of musculature in her arms and legs. She usually wears a thin long-sleeved shirt under a black T-shirt emblazoned on its right shoulder with the Jupiter Crew insignia, light khaki jeans, and a silver pendant, from which a small shard of azure tarydium hangs. One might also catch a glimpse of the medical tape wrapped around her right wrist, from the four successive times that she broke it some years ago.
Weapons: Europa’s armament consists of an NP-150R Combat Assault Rifle, a combined assault rifle and gauss gun.
Special Powers: After all the time spent working with the Jupiter Crew, Europa has learned to think fast in order to compose strategies almost on the spot.

Name: Io (Ian Orschell)
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Alignment: Mercenary
Personality: Io is the technological and intelligence aspect of the Jupiter Crew. He doesn’t particularly enjoy violence and battle, and will make an effort to stay as inconspicuous as possible for as long as possible; ergo, he stays away from open warfare entirely. However, he is in his element when the Crew is faced with an infiltration mission, and he is often relied on to execute the first stages of that mission. Through extensive self-teaching, as well as a generous number of tools, programs, and data, Io can easily take control of essentially any system at all, given that he can find a place to start.
In most situations, Io is quiet, and somewhat timid; he only speaks when spoken to, with few exceptions. When he does speak, he chooses his words carefully, and says as little as he has to. He follows orders given to him to the utmost of his ability, which, despite his misgivings, is often above and beyond what is needed. One theory for his actions is that he is consistently trying to impress Ganymede; however, he has never outwardly expressed any deep feelings for her, or anyone else, for that matter.
Those who knew Io before he joined the Jupiter Crew call him Glitch, which is his old nickname. He readily answers to either Glitch or Io, but appears to prefer that his fellow Crewmates address him by the latter name.
Appearance: For the most part, Io’s fur is a dark orange-gold, excepting a brown, raccoon-like mask across his greyish eyes. He usually wears a hooded black sweater with a power symbol on the front, and the Jupiter Crew insignia on the right shoulder, as well as blue jeans with an innumerable quantity of pockets. The black and silver backpack he carries holds his various computers and associated paraphernalia. He appears to have a habit of pulling his hood over his head while at work on a computer.
Weapons: Io has no weapons that can do physical damage to enemies, but he does have a multitude of hacking tools, including a control cable, that he can use to make things that much more difficult for his opponents.
Special Powers: None.
