Default Make an Alt-Biography for the BLU Pyro!

Every other character in Killing Floor has their own biography, and to me, the hilarious bios are one of my favourite parts about the character packs. Therefore, I was sad to see that Tripwire Interactive only included one biography for both Pyro skins, even though they made seperate bios for other skins that were even more similar, i.e. some of the default ones that are just either with a hat or without a hat.

As such, I propose that Tripwire include a new seperate biography for the BLU Pyro, and I figure the challenge could be fun if posed to the community: can you make a good biography for the BLU Pyro?

Here's my attempt, as an example: "One of 9 mercenaries that eternally duel over dustbowls and gravelpits, the Pyro is known generally for the maniacal mass-murdering of the other mercenaries he is pitted against. Naturally, when the Horzine outbreak hit, the only person excited by the news was the Pyro, who bought himself a one-way airplane ticket to London and has since found himself in a wonderland of death, decay, and destruction."

tl;dr write a bio for the blu pyro

Surely there has to be some rivalry/whatever between red and blue and they have to put their differences aside to rid the country of these specimens.

1 - I figured the RED one can use the bio that's already there.
2 - When you're a RED pyro, and come face to face with a BLU pyro, you'll quickly learn that's not true.

Sure, but some of the default skins are the same thing just one has a hat and one doesn't. Some of us really like the bio texts, and there's no reason they couldn't throw in one more to give the BLU Pyro a unique one. I mean all it takes is like 30 seconds.

Who cares about hats? This is Killing Floor , not that stupid hat simulator called Team Fortress 2. If you like that kind useless things go back to your TF2.

Sure, the default chars look more alike, but they are different people.

I mean, the pyro is the same person either way...and it's not like they would have different backgrounds. Hell, what would you even add? The one already there captures everything we already know about him/her/it.

They look the same because the six default characters are soldiers and cops. Some of whom have lost (or discarded) bits of their kit - Lewis is the only one in full-kit, still.

Being a bunch of soldiers is different from being a cross-over character. There's only two Pyros because TWI didn't want to have to chose one color out of the two that TF2 uses.
