Sergeant Miller

· Chaos and unprofessionalism. His "random" confrontations are often directed at those he deems substandard.
· Familiarity. Especially from newcomers.
· Extreme heat. Physically, it's difficult to bear.
Citrus fruits. Especially after the incident with Hiro.
· Own emotional vulnerability. Hates when he loses control of his feelings.

Miller is a fortress of a man. On the outside, he's an impenetrable wall of muscle, discipline, and military regulations. But inside this fortress lurks a vulnerable, emotionally inexperienced, and in his own way fragile man, just learning to rediscover a world that has become home not only to service but also to quiet admiration, friendship with a giant cat, and the hope that one day he'll find the courage to step forward.

Strengths:

1. Professional: A competent and experienced officer. He knows his job down to the last detail and is respected by his subordinates for his fairness and ability to teach.
2. Loyal: Extremely loyal to his soldiers and his unit. Considers them his second family.
3. Observant: Despite his outward rudeness, he has an eye for detail, which was demonstrated in his surveillance of Hiro.
4. Disciplined: Strictly follows the rules and demands the same from others. His habit of "accidental" rudeness is more of a stress relic and a way to relieve tension.

Weaknesses / Features:

1. Emotionally Clumsy: He's completely unable to handle strong personal feelings. His crush on Hiro threw him off balance, causing adolescent reactions (nosebleeds, blushing).
2. Stubborn: If he sets his mind to something, he will follow through, even if it is hopeless (as in the case of his silent adoration).
3. Straightforward: Doesn't like complex psychological games. His world is simpler: his own, others', orders and their execution.
4. Secretive in his personal life: He prefers to hide all his deepest emotions behind the mask of a stern sergeant. Only his platoon was able to discern his "weakness."

Habits:

· Always checks the equipment of his platoon personally.
· Drinks a lot of water, especially in hot weather.
· In stressful situations, clenches fists or rubs the back of the head with his palm.
· After a working day, he can sit alone, observing the life of the base, with a cup of coffee.

Likes and dislikes

Like:

· Order and discipline. Clean weapons, a lined-up platoon, clear orders.
Strong, competent people. His admiration for Hiro is based precisely on this. He respects Price and his team.
His platoon. Despite the teasing, he loves his "rascals" and is proud of them.
· Simple, honest food. No frills.
· A sense of humor for "our own".
· Tenya (cat). First as part of Hiro's world, and then as a silent ally and friend.

· Name: Sergeant Miller (first name is probably Kyle or Marcus, but he prefers to be addressed by his rank).
· Age: 37 years.
· Rank: Senior Sergeant.
· Role: Platoon commander, physical training and tactics instructor.

Appearance

Build: Typical "tank." Height: approximately 190 cm, broad bone structure, powerful muscles acquired through years of training and service. Weight: approximately 105-110 kg, mostly muscle.
Facial features: Square, strong jaw, heavy chin. The nose has a slight hump (possibly broken in the past). The lips are thin, usually tightly pressed together. The eyes are brown, deep-set, with a constant narrowed expression of tiredness and intentness. The eyebrows are dark and thick.
· Hair: Dark blond, cut short in a buzz cut, with graying visible at the temples.
· Skin: Dark, tanned, with a rough texture and numerous small scars: a mark from a shrapnel on the left cheekbone, a scar above the eyebrow.
Traits: He holds himself with an upright, almost military-like bearing. His presence is palpable. His hands are large, with knuckles that have been bloodied over the course of his career.

Physical component

Strength: Exceptional. Can effortlessly carry heavy ammunition crates and single-handedly lift stuck vehicles. In hand-to-hand combat, he fights brutally but effectively, preferring to overwhelm his opponents with sheer weight and force.
· Endurance: Iron-like. He can conduct drills for hours on the parade ground in the scorching sun and undertake long forced marches in full gear. However, extreme heat is his weakness, as has been demonstrated.
· Agility: Not his strong point. He's not clumsy, but his movements are those of a powerful bear, not a panther. He relies on strength, not grace.
· Skills: Small arms fire, hand-to-hand combat (military system), tactical planning at the platoon level, physical training of personnel, basic survival.
