PERSONALITY & TRAITS

Despite his rather depressed-sounding nature, Craig is a kind man to those who are kind to him, but despises those that use force to get what they want and make people suffer. Because of his past, his depression can overwhelm him, unless he smokes his electronic cigars or drinks strong alcohols. With all the alcohol he drinks, Craig can't seem to get drunk, unless he has insomnia.

BIOGRAPHY

Craig Anderson was raised by his politician father, Damien Anderson, but never really got to know him, keeping to himself and his friends in South Carolina. When he was 17, the One Year War broke out, and he and his best friend, Carly Sparrow, snuck off to join the Earth Federation military. Not one to shy away at being a normal person, Craig didn't adopt a soldier's mindset, especially when it came to fighting, which gave room for him to utilize some unknown skills of his, including Mobile Suit piloting and strategy. Over the course of his military career, Craig managed to steal a commander's Zaku II, until he got his own GM Type C, and fought Char Aznable twice, both times being a stalemate. When the fighting went to space, Craig's group stopped at a colony that looked identical to Side 3, Santayana. It was there that he met his mother for the first time, Marian Snow.

Marian brought Craig to her home and told him everything about the Federation, the Principality of Zeon, and his father, primarily their faults and flaws. Upon learning the truth, Craig was leaving his mom's home, when a GM destroyed the house, leaving Craig heartbroken at the sight of his mother being killed. This tragedy caused Craig to become a Newtype, one feared by both the Federation and Zeon, as he took out the Federation squad responsible for his mother's death, snow falling in space due to his Newtype pressure. Craig joined up with his old friends, accompanied by Vice Admiral Adrian Braddock, as they went back to Earth, to fight against Damien Anderson's private army and kill him. Craig and his allies fought a long battle, and the young man finally managed to get to his former father, and kill him.

Years later, Craig dyed his brown hair white, to remind him of who his real parent was, his mother. Training his martial arts and cooking skills, and taking calming shots of whatever alcohol he could acquire, Craig was left depressed by the events near the end of the One Year War. He learned about the Titans, who acted exactly as his former father did, and joined Karaba, then the AEUG, to wipe them out, for good. During the Gryps Conflict, he came into conflict with his nemesis, the one who caused the death of his mother, Dimitri Valiant. The natural Newtype and the Cyber Newtype fought each other, again and again, until Craig was left the victor, though not without his injuries.

After the AEUG disbanded, Craig was left further depressed, as he retired on Earth, his house moved to Virginia, still getting payment from the Federation military, due to not wanting to anger him, lest they end up like his former father and his private army.

Description: Short, brown hair, dyed white, brown eyes, usually wears an Earth Federation uniform, due to how comfortable it is, despite his dislike of the Federation. His face has some wrinkles, thanks to his age, yet his physique is still somewhat muscular, from his martial arts training.
