Grismelda Hollendaise

undefined"'I can't say for certain if we're going to win... In fact, I don't count on it. But we didn't get this far by giving up. We've fought larger and more skilled groups.  You remember the Grand Ops game at the start.  We held off a platoon size element and still made it home for dinner.  And you know what?  Right now, dinner to me sounds like a championship trophy, y'all agree?  So no matter what happens, we're gonna try to win.  Through the forests, in the grass, behind rocks and cars and buildings... bleed 'em.' - Grismelda giving the infamous 'Bleed 'em' directive"Grismelda is a Dragonian female professional Squad Mates player. Grismelda is a former Dragonian Soldier who was discharged due to her ultra-aggressive fighting style. While on the field she had a habit of chasing down her enemies even after they broke away from a fight. Relentless, she earned the nickname of Sanguine Banshee by Dragonia's enemies. Unfortunately this was a singular focus for Grismelda and on more than one occasion she pursued enemies so thoroughly that she almost got charged for dereliction of duty and desertion. However, she was so good at it that it avoided her getting court martialed. She was discharged from the military after she chased a retreating squad into a massive ambush that, while she managed to win with air support, resulted in many unnecessary Dragonian casualties. Someone had to pay for that and in order to avoid bad optics they quietly discharged Grismelda and claimed that the person responsible for the debacle was killed in the battle.

Grismelda took her "less than honorable but not dishonorable" discharge and laid low for a few years. She joined Squad Mates as a way to continue what she loved to do.

Grismelda is one of the best players in the game. Forming her own team, the Savage Talons in her first year; she attained legendary player status in her second year when, during a championship final against the 113th Tactical Group she issued her infamous directive of "Bleed 'em" and won the match against a far superior team. Grismelda knows that Dragonian brass is keeping a close eye on her career mainly because of who she is but she also knows that they let someone with genuine talent for soldiering go.

An incredible shot, she can put a round between a man's eyes with a combat rifle at 150m without batting an eye. She is a registered sharpshooter in Squad Mates and it's best to avoid her if people want to survive a round. Acting more as a Designated Marksman, she is a great force multiplier to the team she's working with.
