Alpha 1
From FreeSpace Wiki
Service Record
Alpha 1 is credited numerous times with single-handedly saving both the Terran and Vasudan species from certain annihilation. The pilot's accomplishments are far too numerous to list here.
Some major events that Alpha 1 has been in:
- Help evacuate Capella (Freespace 2)
- Destroyed the Lucifer (Freespace 1)
- Destroyed the Hades (Silent threat)
- Weakens the first SJ Sathanas, so the GTVA Colossus was able to defeat it.
- Witness of the Colossus's first and last battle
- Witness the death of the GTD Galatea
- SOC pilot
Identity
Go look in a mirror.
To expand upon this, as a character, Alpha 1 almost certainly cannot be the same person for each game. Alpha 1 of FS1 ended in Sol, cut off; Alpha 1 of Silent Threat is too old for an active fighter command by the time of FS2 (and in any case FS2's Alpha 1 is described as new pilot).
There is some speculation that Silent Threat's Alpha 1 may be Aken Bosch, but this seems unlikely.
