Description
Captain Hunks serves as the commanding officer and administrator of the Imperial Army State Section III, the unit known as Pumpkin Scissors. He is the longest-serving member of this section and operates from a central headquarters, where he is responsible for issuing mission orders and managing the unit's administrative affairs. His physical appearance is notable for its contrast with his authoritative role, as he is depicted as a man well over fifty years old with a short stature, standing at only five feet and one inch tall.
On the surface, Hunks presents a calm, relaxed, and somewhat informal demeanor, often appearing to be a low-key and unassuming figure who might seem to have little motivation as he reads newspapers. This unassuming exterior, however, hides a remarkably sharp and astute mind. He possesses a high level of emotional and military intelligence, allowing him to assess situations with great clarity. His personality is defined by a steady, almost paternal presence that acts as a crucial counterbalance to the impetuous and headstrong nature of the unit's field leader, Alice Malvin.
The motivations driving Captain Hunks are deeply rooted in his past. Before joining Section III, he was a member of the military police, where he earned a fearsome reputation as a vicious and ruthless operator, referred to by some as Hunks the Hunks. According to another senior officer, Major Connery, Hunks joined the war relief efforts of State Section III as a way to atone for past crimes committed during his earlier career. This desire for redemption shapes his steadfast commitment to the section's mission of supporting the populace in the post-war era.
In his role within the story, Hunks acts as the strategic anchor for Pumpkin Scissors. While he rarely, if ever, takes to the field, his contributions are vital to the team's success. He uses his extensive experience and sharp insight to navigate the complex political and military landscapes that the unit encounters. He is one of the few individuals who is aware of the dangerous secrets surrounding the Invisible 9, a secret project from the war, and he proceeds with caution, understanding the potential devastation that revealing such information could cause. His authority and judgment are such that he can intervene in high-level political issues and hold his own against senior military officials.
Hunks maintains several key relationships that define his position. He shares a close professional bond with Major Connery, another veteran who is well aware of the dangers posed by the Invisible 9, though Connery is also resentful of Hunks, believing his work in war relief is motivated by guilt. He is a mentor and superior to the younger members of the unit, particularly Warrant Officer Oreldo. Hunks values Oreldo's perspective as a commoner and hopes to one day pass the leadership of Section III on to him. With Randel Oland, the former anti-tank trooper and another veteran of the war, Hunks shares a silent bond of understanding, as both belong to a generation that knows the horrors of the front lines.
Over the course of the narrative, Hunks does not undergo a dramatic personality shift, but his past is gradually revealed, adding depth to his calm exterior. His development is shown through his actions, as he works tirelessly behind the scenes to protect his unit and support their goals, even when it requires bending the rules or using his knowledge of legal loopholes. For example, he has provided covert support to his team, such as arranging for them to use a secretly developed mobile command vehicle.
His notable abilities lie not in physical combat, but in his mental and strategic prowess. Hunks is exceptionally astute, able to see through political deception and criminal schemes with near one hundred percent accuracy. He is highly knowledgeable about military law and imperial regulations, and he skillfully finds gaps in the legal system to provide his unit with the support they need. His negotiation skills are formidable, allowing him to secure conditions to compete with high-ranking executives on an equal footing. These qualities, combined with his calm judgment, make him an infallible support for the field team and an unwavering guardian of the Pumpkin Scissors mission.
