'''Curtis Kale [born 0:001991] Is an outstanding soldier and right-hand-man to Arm Zilch. Kale has had a rough life, never having been in a spot of privilege despite having worked ten times harder than most men, and over time his witty, enthusiastic personality has withered and he is now somewhat cynical and rugged. He is sick of the war and eagerly awaits its end.'''

'''Kale is one of the 'Three War-skeeters', a close-knit trio of former Terran military commanders who are unknown despite their crucial roles in the Alien Game Wars. In the group, Kale's specialty has always been the big guns. He is a proud believer of "the more the merrier" -- when it comes to bullets in his gun. Kale always takes the most direct route, going through things rather than around them.'''

'''Kale is no longer affiliated with the Terran Empire, but he fights for them alongside the Heroes. He travels the galaxy under the alias "Lawman", beating back alien forces where he can, mostly aiding in the liberation of planets. The one word that can be found in any description of Curtis Kale is "survivor."'''

Origin [0:002019]
Born Reginald P. Dean, Kale grew up in rural southern Alabama on the Dean Farm. His parents farmed Rice and Pigs. At the age of 12, Kale watched his elder brother sent off to military boot camp without even so much as a discussion about what he wanted to do with his life. Kale was determined to live his own life, and he ran away from home.

At 16, Kale arrived in Washington, D.C. His roots were quickly discovered, but according to records, an unknown federal agent took the boy in, giving him his current name, Curtis Phillip Kale (he kept his middle name). Kale lived with the agent for two years before realizing that he was being groomed to become an agent. He tried to run again, but the government tracked him down, and he was sent to military boot camp to learn discipline. Kale decided that it was his fate to be a soldier, and with this new attitude he quickly took to his new profession.

He shot through the ranks and by 0:002013, he was a Sergeant in the United States Army. In 0:002019, he was selected as part of the "States' Army", an elite military force prepared to combat the Communists in Europe and Asia for prolonged amounts of time. This program, although very successful, was cut short in 0:002026 when the Scumaliens invaded the earth.

At this time, the States' Army was recalled and Kale was sent to defend Chicago, the largest city he had ever been to. As an outstanding soldier, he was assigned as the second-in-command to Arm Zilch, the head of the defenses in Chicago. They won the First Invasion together and would go on to become close friends.

After the Invasion, Kale was promoted directly to Colonel, and was promised that before the end of the next war he would move up a step and become a Brigadier General. Kale continued to protect the earth beside his allies and was promoted by the end of the Second Invasion.
