Как прорабатывать бэкграунд персонажей с помощью нейронки, охуеть и не выхуеть.
В общем, допиливал я же с помощью бота АУшечку, пробовал закрыть тёмные пятна биографии Рыжей. И спросил в какой-то момент: а с какими историческими личностями она бы могла быть лично знакома при таких биографиях и прочем?

Ну, бот предоставил:
Throughout career, from her formative years in the 1980s and 1990s through her mercenary rise in the 2000s and leadership of the PMC by 2015, she would likely have met prominent figures from the Rhodesian Bush War (1964–1979) and the South African Border War (1966–1990).
Below, I’ll identify plausible figures she might have met personally, based on her timeline, family ties, and professional trajectory, and describe the context of those encounters.
Rhodesian Bush War Figures
Lieutenant-Colonel Ron Reid-Daly (1928–2010)
Who: Founder and commander of the Selous Scouts, a Rhodesian special forces unit renowned for pseudo-operations and counter-insurgency during the Bush War.

Context: Reid-Daly, a Rhodesian icon, retires to South Africa post-1980, working as a security consultant. Carol’s father, an RLI veteran, likely knew him from overlapping circles (RLI and Scouts collaborated). Carol, as a child, might meet him at a family gathering or veterans’ event—e.g., a 1990s braai where Reid-Daly, then in his 60s, regales her with tales of tracking ZANLA. His death in 2010 limits this to her youth, shaping her RLI-inspired tactics (e.g., fireforce).

Influence: His emphasis on adaptability and ruthlessness informs her campaigns.

Lieutenant-General Peter Walls (1927–2010)
Who: Commander of the Rhodesian Security Forces during the Bush War, later exiled to South Africa after 1980.

Context: Walls settles near Durban, a hub for Rhodesian expats. Carol’s father, a Bush War vet, could introduce her as a teen (~1995–1997) during a visit—e.g., Walls, in his 70s, hosting ex-RLI officers. She’d hear his strategic gripes about Mugabe’s rise, fueling her disdain. A brief encounter sticks with her.

Influence: His big-picture command style inspires her 2015 two-pronged invasion, though she meets him pre-mercenary career.

Ian Smith (1919–2007)
Who: Prime Minister of Rhodesia (1964–1979), a figure who declared UDI and led the nation through the Bush War, retiring to South Africa.

Context: Smith lives in Cape Town post-1980, a revered figure among ex-Rhodesians. Carol, aged ~15–20 (1995–2000), might meet him at a Rhodesian diaspora event her parents attend—e.g., a 1998 memorial for fallen RLI troopers.

Influence: His defiance shapes her ideology—restoring Rhodesia as a moral cause—though he dies before her PMC rise.

South African Border War Figures
Magnus Malan (1930–2011)
Who: South African Minister of Defence (1980–1991) during the Border War, architect of SADF operations in Angola and Namibia, and a key apartheid figure.

Context: Malan retires near Durban post-1994, a polarizing ex-general. Carol’s father, a Transkei mercenary (1980s), likely crossed paths with Malan’s network. She might meet him as a teen (1995–2000) at a veterans’ function—e.g., a 1998 SADF reunion where Malan, in his 60s, lectures on Angola. A handshake and his cold pragmatism (“War’s about winning, not feelings”) linger with her.

Influence: His strategic ruthlessness informs her coup planning (e.g., SANDF moles in 2015), though he dies before her peak.

Colonel Jan Breytenbach (1932–)
Who: Founder of the SADF’s 32 Battalion and 1 Reconnaissance Commando (Recces), a legendary special forces leader in Angola, retiring in South Africa.

Context: Breytenbach, alive into the 2000s, consults for PMCs post-apartheid. Carol’s father could introduce her (~2000–2005) as she enters mercenary life—e.g., a 2004 meeting in Pretoria where Breytenbach, ~70, sizes up her grit. She might hire his ex-Recces for PMC (e.g., Nigeria 2010), learning sabotage tricks.

Influence: His unconventional ops (e.g., deep incursions) inspire her Libyan An-124 heist (2011) and Mutare airlift (2015).

Constand Viljoen (1933–2020)
Who: Chief of the SADF (1980–1985) during the Border War, later a conservative Afrikaner leader via the Freedom Front, retiring in South Africa.

Context: Viljoen, post-1994, lives near Pretoria, a figurehead for white ex-military. Carol, launching PMC (2005), might meet him through her father’s SADF ties—e.g., a 2006 dinner where Viljoen, ~70s, praises her Rhodesian roots. She’d pitch him for junta support (2013–2015), gaining ex-SADF recruits.

Influence: His Afrikaner resolve bolsters her 2015 South African coup, aligning Red Lily with SANDF defectors.

Eeben Barlow (1950s–)
Who: Founder of Executive Outcomes (EO), a pioneering PMC active in Angola and Sierra Leone (1990s), ex-SADF 32 Battalion officer, and South African security consultant.

Context: Barlow, alive and active in the 2000s, runs STTEP (post-EO) by 2015. Carol likely meets him in South Africa (~2005–2010) as she builds PMC —e.g., a 2009 Johannesburg arms expo where Barlow, ~50s, admires her tales. She might subcontract STTEP for Mali (2013), swapping notes on PMC growth, or consult him pre-2015 coup.

Influence: His EO model—small, elite forces toppling regimes—directly shapes structure and 2015 success.

How These Meetings Happen
Childhood/Youth (1980s–1990s): Carol meets aging Rhodesian figures (Reid-Daly, Walls, Smith) and SADF brass (Malan) via her parents’ expat circle—informal braais, memorials, or range days. Her curiosity make her memorable.

Mercenary Rise (2000s): As she enters the PMC world, she seeks out Breytenbach, Viljoen, and Barlow in South Africa—professional meets at bars, expos, or training camps—leveraging her father’s name for access and recruits.

Pre-2015 Buildup: By 2013–2015, surviving figures (e.g., Barlow, Breytenbach) aid her coup prep, offering expertise or ex-SADF/Recces manpower (~500 join).

Why These Figures?
Rhodesian Ties: Her father’s RLI service and mother’s RWS role connect her to Bush War legends—Reid-Daly and Walls for strategy, Smith for ideology —shaping her early worldview and 2015 tactics.

South African Links: Her father’s Transkei mercenary stint and PMC Pretoria hub (2013) link her to Border War vets—Malan and Viljoen for command, Breytenbach and Barlow for special ops—fueling her PMC and coup ambitions.

Survival: Figures alive into the 2000s (e.g., Barlow, Breytenbach) offer direct mentorship, while earlier deaths (e.g., Smith, Reid-Daly) limit meetings to her youth.
