Janice Lourentz

Janice Lourentz is the supervisor and overall authority figure of Phoenix Corps. She is the official head of Military Institute Headquarters and the sole daughter of Kenneth Lourentz, chancellor of Logenian National Academy. She is also a council member of LOGOS, the combined board and main directive for all Logenian special forces, taking over her father's position.

After Kenneth entrusted her with supervisory duty of AMCC, Janice's life took a turn for the worse. The independent nature of AMCC and their exploits, or lack thereof, is always a constant problem with LOGOS, which constantly pressures Janice to either disband or merge the corps under LOGOS's command.

Aside from her daily headaches of handling AMCC, she is also in charge of Logenian Cadet Corps, the official designation for National Academy Students who actively participates in military training under the Military Institute.

Appearance
Janice's trademark looks is her sharp glasses and a "7th Heaven" brand cigar between her lips which she smokes whenever she is on the outdoors in a non-smoking area. She dons her brunette hair in a high ponytail and can often be seen wearing an orange longcoat.

Personality
Janice is a gentle and kind lady who cares a great deal about the Firebirds and their future prospects. However, when push comes to shove, she can be very demanding and unreasonable, expecting good results above all else and constantly threatening to disband the corps.

She is a very cautious and capable politician, especially around Logenia's supreme general Roderick Griffon. While her father thought of the supreme general as a necessary opposition voice, Janice clearly did not like his intervention with AMCC.
