Senator Hawkeye Marshall's representation of New Megara comes from his years of studying to be a Medical Doctor in the Wildlands, where the first major social scuffle took place over the political debate of excavating the Gigan Ruins in 73 P.G.E.. He was 25, and served as a field doctor during the protest oriented conflicts which were primarily between Sial Guards, Wild Ones, Dis-Incorporated Citizens, Federal Guards, Scientific Activists and Politicians. While there were other protesters from the other states, the main players were those who had vested interests in prime excavation locations. There were just under 500 casualties, with five deaths. Hawkeye was involved with the triage unit which attempted to save 3 of those who died, and successfully saved 127 others. Due to his skill, at the young age of 25, he had the worst cases, including the men who died.

Despite the live video recordings of his surgeries passing the toughest inspections, despite families of those who died telling him it wasn't his fault, Hawkeye couldn't let the event go. While he eventually realized he did everything that could've been done, that those whom he saved likely would've died under anyone else's hands, he refused to accept the political state of affairs which would allow a protest to turn so deadly. In fact, he was convinced that members of the Sial Guard had been instrumental in escalating the conflict, while attempting to blame the Wild Ones for actions that were done through directed subversion.

In just a couple of years, during the next major election, he retired from his medical practice, determined that he could save more lives by entering the political arena. His first order of business: to strengthen ethical laws and standards for anything that took place across borders. Lines were drawn when he stepped foot on the Senate floor, and it was clear by sight alone, who was likely an elected criminal, and who was an elected representative. Few, if any, who had shady dealings in their past would come within ten feet of the Senator. It was only a matter of time before this reputation directly landed him as the head of the Ethics Committee governing all federal oversight.
