[edit] Basic History
Cidane "Circle" Merkle was born on a small farming skylet near Cidade. The skylet was large enough to support two farms: her family's, and another belonging to the Whitclaw family. Circle was the second of four children, and the oldest girl. She grew up feeling cramped and bored with the agrarian lifestyle, so it was little surprise to her family when at 18 she announced she was leaving to go to flight school.
Circle's grades indicated that she is a competent combat pilot prone to occasional bouts of carelessness, with uninspiring grades in economic theory and navigation. She showed an aptitude for working with machines, which she credits to a childhood maintaining farm equipment, and could have found work as a mechanic if she were not so determined to fly.
[edit] Aircraft
After graduating from her flight school issue CR-4P Circle flew a Phantom for a short time, though she never got around to naming either plane. It was not until purchasing her Valkyrie that Circle felt at home in a plane. The Trafalgon has been her plane ever since. It has gone through several major upgrades, including the costly overhaul to designate it a Mk-II.
