Personality Description
General Personality:
Tod is somewhat of a lone wolf when he is not in the cockpit of his viper. He speaks his mind even if it pisses others off. He does not hold anything back from anyone and he expects the same in return from anyone he associates with. He has some issues with “Authority Figures” which planted him in the Brig on numerous occasions. He gives everyone respect and expects the same in return. Once someone crosses Tod, they are considered his enemy for life.
Tod’s motto: “Vengeance Is A Meal Best Served Cold!”

Personal History:
Tod grew up in an orphanage where he had to fight day and night to get what he wanted. He does not have any knowledge of his parents or any siblings. The only knowledge of his heritage that he has is that he is an Aerilon and was abandoned on the colony of Tauron when he was only three years old. He married a Tauron woman who was disowned by her family and labeled an outcast by her own people for marrying outside of her own race. Shortly after their marriage, Tod and his new bride Samantha left Tauron and went to the Colony of Caprica where Tod entered into the Colonial Academy. A few years after Tod graduated the academy and assigned to the Columbia, he learned that his wife was killed. After returning to Caprica airspace, Tod was granted shore leave and returned to the surface of Caprica to attend his wife’s funeral. After her services were over, Tod learned that his wife’s killer was from the colony of Tauron.
Military Service History:
Tod Marshall attended basic flight school. Upon completion, he entered into the Advanced Viper Training program. There he showed outstanding advancements in viper combat maneuvers, dog fighting, defensive and offensive tactics and weapons technology. At the age of 23, Tod was part of only a handful to be promoted first to Lieutenant then to Captain at a young age. After his promotion, Tod was given command of his own viper squadron aboard the Battlestar Columbia.
After his wife’s funeral, Tod returned to the Columbia and commenced with his duties. After one of his flight exercises, Tod engaged in an altercation with one of his subordinates, where the junior pilot ended up in the medical bay with severe lacerations and some broken bones. Tod Marshall was found guilty, stripped of his command, demoted down to Sgt. and sent to the brig by his commanding officers. Upon his release, Tod was ordered to see a therapist until that therapist deemed Tod to be fit for duty. After Tod was released back to full duty, he fought tooth and nail to regain the trust of his superiors and climbed back up the ranks to his current rank of Lieutenant.
