Clark Benson
Growing up aboard the Vault Crawler, Clark had little in the way of a childhood. His father is Captain of the Guard for the police militia that protects the citizens of the platform and made plans early on that this should become the family business. Arriving in his position through means most consider controversial at best, he made sure to always hold himself and his son to the highest standards in public. This caused the young Clark to develop a bit of hypervigilance.
Joining the VCP at fourteen, he started off as a glorified janitor. As his father intended, this made him hungry to do actual work with the men. When he was sixteen he was given a desk job working on civilian profiles and updates. Eighteen and he was allowed to start going on patrols with his fellow officers. He learned a lot about the city and how to run the security on it. This wasn't his only passion however.
After having a few words with his father over a woman he had intended to marry, he was suddenly given orders to board the rigid airship the Red Devils had been designing for long range recon missions. Even annoyed as he was, Clark hugged his father and left to do his duty. Little did he know this decision would change his life forever.
While on an extended patrol, he got to know Jenaveive Martin and took a shine to her. Although his advances have always been respectfully rebuffed, he does hope to earn her affections through his loyal and efficent service as her head of security. Of course this only angered his father further, but by the time he tried to do anything about it, Martin was a First Citizen and she decided who traveled in her company, not Benson senior.
