=Biography=

Early life
Nowak was born in Silesia sometime in the 1980s. He cannot remember exactly, so randomly chose 1985. He remembers that his father was a coal miner. Then the war came ("I was nine, maybe ten years old") and Poland descended into chaos. The rest of his childhood was spent in a series of refugee camps, first with his mother and siblings, later with just one brother, and finally on his own.

Military career
Nowak enlisted in the Foreign Legion in 2005. He was assigned first to 2e REI, where he served as a Legionnaire deuxième classe (2EME, OR-1), rifleman, although was quickly promoted to Legionnaire première classe (1ERE, OR-2) and transerred the pioneer squad, beginning to grow the traditional beard. In 2008, he was promoted to Caporal (CPL, OR-3) and joined 11e REI as part of its cadre. In 2009, he was cited for valour at the Battle of Tengréla and promoted to Sergent (SGT, OR-5). As the chef de groupe of the regiment's pioneer squad, he has gathered a hardy group of corporals and legionnaires and formed them into a formidable groupe de pionniers-sapeurs.

=Physical description= Only in his mid twenties, Nowak is in exceptional phyical condition. He wears a traditional pioneers beard (Fr: barbe). In combat, he carries a FAMAS G2 rifle equipped with an M203 grenade launcher.
