Bio: Born just fifteen miles north of the Mason-Dixon line in a small town in Maryland, Grey was raised in a poor and humble family. He was highly ambitious and wanted more than he had, but soon after seeing the atrocities committed on both sides of the Mason-Dixon Line, he decided he wanted to help people instead of just helping himself, and thus became an autodidact due to the fact that his parents were too poor to afford schooling. He was hired as a drummer boy in the Union Army at first, and earned enough money to attend college. He was admitted to Yale at a young age, and with a little hard work became a doctor. He then attended West Point and joined the Union Army at first. Because of the rarity of the educated, he was quickly promoted to the rank of Lieutenant and sent to the front lines as a medic(because it was early in the war, this was near the South). He became an impromptu commander after the original commander was badly injured and concussed, therefore being unable to command. He did so admirably, defending the Maryland town he had been assigned to as a defender. The Confederates were driven off, and Grey managed to save the commander. He was then himself promoted to the rank of Captain, but resigned from the army soon after. He decided that he would do more help as a medic instead of a soldier, and joined the Red Cross.

Yeah.
The Civil War was the entire reason that the Red Cross was invented, if I'm not mistaken, and it was also during the Civil War that the Red Cross became semi-famous. And one more thing:
Clara Barton.
'Nuff said.
Honestly though, I don't see what the recent formation of the Red Cross has to do with whether or not I can be in it. After all, it existed, so therefore it's okay, amirite?

He has been deafened many a time by the sound of artillery firing on the practice range outside of West Point(if he is an Officer of artillery, Idk where artillery training took place), and it only took a couple of weeks before he understood everything there is to know about aiming and firing a cannon. The only regret he has is that his targets are fellow Americans, and not foreign invaders. He is hopeful that he can make a difference and help end the war quickly.

you are inside a trench outside in what was once a grassy field where people used to enjoy days like this, the sunshine and warmth. But now it's time for the blood to spill. Your CO walks up "Soldier you have a sniper, get up on on that ridge and provide support!" he points to a hill east of the trench. But you see both union and confederate forces moving up it

you just arrived by supply line to a Point on cemetery ridge led by General Alexander S. Webb and as soon as you arrived and settle down, an artillery barrage rains upon the ridge, spraying dirt everywhere... but it all goes far past the defending lines. After the more annoying barrage across a long grassy field, cut in two by a road and fence, you see a mass of troops forming up and moving forward. Soon they will be in range

Rank: Corporal.
Bio: Argh...I just had to remake this entire thing, so don't be surprised if it's ****ty.
Born in Boston, Massachusetts to a wealthy family of officers, Worthington was raised with a formal education and heavy training to be a soldier. Because of the strict disciplinarian methods of his childhood, Worthington became sick of rules and laws and became a bit of an outlaw. He was caught for arson and thrown in jail, but his family stepped in and made the army conscript him as an enlisted man instead of jail time. He got in trouble in the army, too, for disobedience and disrespect, but was noticed by the higher-ups after, again, interference on the part of his family. He was thus sent to the Battle of Bull Run, or Manassas, where he actually did well, capturing a Confederate officer. In return, he was promoted to Corporal. Soon afterward, a Union spy was discovered by the Confederates and executed, leaving a spot open. Worthington applied, and was assigned to the position of spy.
