Yay, I'm first! Hope you find Fade interesting!

Image 1: Normal Mode


Image 2: Combat Mode (ignore the flying balls with tails)


Name: Fade


Age: 3 years


Weight: 210 lbs


Height: 6 feet


Race: Mecha


Background: A mining expedition on an asteroid in the Sol system found the remains of a robot warrior. They searched for other signs of previous life, but with no success. They decided to take the robot back, and so they took it to Federation headquarters. When they brought it out into the sunlight, it suddenly activated and morphed into combat mode. It assessed the situation, then returned to normal mode and spoke. "Greetings, Terrans. I am Unit-0241, but you may call me Fade. I was sent by what you call the Precursors to present new and wonderful technologies to help your race. Sadly, we did not make correct calculations, and thus crashed in your so called Asteroid Belt. The ship and cargo must have floated off into space, since you found no wreckage where I was, so I have nothing to offer you but myself. I am designed as a weapons specialist, and seeing as the world I came from is far more advanced than yours, I can understand all your devices easily." Fade was put in interrogation, during which he described the technological advancements of his people. After being familiarized with every piece of equipment, weapon, and vehicle in the Federation armada, Fade was assigned to an experimental ship, Subarashii class.


Likes: Learning, talking, playing games, showing off


Dislikes: Water, bad engineering/design, interruptions during his charging period


Weapons: Fists, Swords, rifle (all in the pictures above)


Role: Weapons Officer


Affiliation: Terran Federation, creation of the Precursors


If there's anything else I should add, I'll add it when I need to.

 

[Thinslayer]

This is Emperor Valoran. He is often called the "Warrior Emperor" because of his prior experience as Fleet Admiral. Though he is revered nationwide and likes to boast about how much he cares for his people, many in the Federation have expressed skepticism about his motivations. He skipped opportunities to bury the hatchet with the SATO Alliance, and his anti-Crescent rhetoric has both nations worried. Old treaties are strained and old rivalries are worsening under his rule. It won't belong before the Federation is once again buried in intergalactic war.

This is Emperor Reeve Maucolyn, the highest-ranking member on the Crescent Immortal Council. Like his ancestors before him, he is chiefly concerned with setting the galaxy on a good course centuries in advance. His agents and operatives are everywhere, thanks to the efforts of his second-in-command, Gwenivere Valentine. His stubborn pacifism has some in the Empire frustrated, but he has successfully kept the peace until now. In recent years, he has struggled the most with the Terran Federation, which has consistently resisted his attempts to bring their increasing corruption under control.


On a side note, yes, that *is* a sword he's wearing. Despite being decades ahead of everyone else in technology, they are still quite fond of their swords, and almost everyone in the Immortal Council carries one.

 

[Thinslayer]

Name: Faye Bannister


Age: 21


Birthplace: Terra (Earth)


Affiliation: Terran Federation


Role: Science Officer


Biography: A graduate of Rigel University with a deep yearning to explore the cosmos, Faye joined the Terran Space Force as soon as she was old enough at 18 years of age. For three years, she worked on board Federation science ships, studying nebulae and extraterrestrial life forms. Her assertive personality and blunt manner didn't bode well with her co-workers, so they conspired to transfer her out. A certain Federation starship captain took a shine to her, however, and offered her a job on his battlecruiser, the TSV-77 Jade Whisper. She fit right in to the military environment, where her stellar performance drew the attention of important higher-ups.


One fateful day, she received a Notice of Transfer from an anonymous government agent. She was to report to Starbase 4 for transfer. An official there led her to a briefing room, where she would meet a new crew...

Name: Trisha Deluz


Age: 25


Gender: Female


Birthplace: Earth


Affiliation: Terran Federation


Role: Comms Officer


Likes: Red, exercise and spicy food


Dislikes: Uncooperative nature, silence and liars


Personality: Trisha is quite the tomboy, most likely due to her upbringings. She is a slob and has no manners, yet she is quick and resourceful. She prefers to yell and annoy people than silence. If she crosses a line, she'd feel guilty but too stubborn to say sorry and any sentimental moments would have her uncomfortable.


Bio: Raised by her father and her grandfather, she admired both figures. She paid no mind that there was never a mother in her life; instead getting tools for her pop pop who tinkered with transmission devices while spouting about conspiracies or waiting for her dad to come home from doing police patrols. Trisha strove to follow in some aspect both their footsteps, leading her to enlist to the Terran Space Force. From the start, she had trouble making any impression on her commanding officer, some overlooking her because of the lack of experience. That is until a meteor strike hit the space craft and Trisha quick thinking had her sealing off the compromised room and containing the spacecraft in good shape until returning to base. After that, she was said to be the most resourceful of all the cadets there. It seemed highly unlikely in her mind but let it slide. A few days later she was given reports to go to Starbase 4 and she was off.


(If there's anything else I should add or take off, let me know.)

 

[UnknownSection]

Name: Edward Roswaal


Age: 27


Affiliation: Terran Federation


Role: Captain


Personality: With a sly yet capricious nature, it's hard to tell what Edward is thinking at times. He is cocky, yet humble at the same time. Optimistic, yet still filled with pessimism. With a sense of self grandeur that is enough to fill the entire room, one would think that it would be quite a predicament to be working with such an individual. However this is not the case, in fact Edward is quite the extrovert. He loves the center of attention, but only stands in the spotlight for as long as necessary. It's easy to become acquaintances with him, but much more difficult to become a friend. Due to his gregarious attitude, Edward has become a good judge of character. Subtle pokes and jabs people throw around don't miss his eye. He has the charisma and charm that is needed to be known.


Bio: Edward was born into a privileged household. His father was a high ranking officer within the security bureau of the Terran Federation and his mother was not just a pretty face. Both of his parents went to prestigious universities before marking their place among the elite, and Edward was to continue that practice. Right from the very moment he could walk, he began to learn "proper conduct". Manners, articulation, appearance, all of these values were ingrained within Edward and they are what makes him what he is today. He studied, practiced, rinse and repeat. Soon after he graduated university, he was immediately hired into the Terran Federation. He established himself in the aristocracy and trained to become a captain. He rose through the ranks and was employed in a myriad of missions, and gained a name for himself within the establishment.

Name: Uldren Sov


Age: unknown


Role: fighter pilot


Alliance: crescent empire


Bio: he was the supreme general(head of all branches) for the crescent fleet. He won many battles, raids, and solo missions due to thought out battle plans and skill. the skill was obtained from long hours in simulators and even more time in the fields. He has extensive knowledge about every ship, gun, and tactic of the empire. he knows those things because he has used them all and taught people how to use them all. But he once disobeyed an order from the counsel, the order told him to send a "hand over the fugitives or die" message, and was exiled. He has been wandering the universe ever since. He has spent most of his time alone but recently joined a Subarashii starship and joined their crew as a wingman.

Andrew Banton

Image: With His Uniform On

Without His Uniform On

Name: Andrew "Jink" Banton


Age:29


Race: Human


Affiliation: Space Pirate/Mercenary


Role: Helm Officer/Pilot


Bio: Andrew grew up in a crime-ridden planet on the fringe of space, his parents barely were able to make enough money to keep their house, and when the time came, Andrew had to pay himself for air combat school, with money that wasn't earned so 'legitimately'. After his youth, Andrew was a freelance pilot for many years, working with mercenary companies and pirate gangs. He has a lot of experience piloting as piloting was his position in almost every job he has worked. He specialises in combat flying, hence the nickname "Jink" from his ability to outmanoeuvre most enemies. He will also sometimes work as a boarding crew member as he has basic combat experience. He sometimes will get lazy or off track when things get quiet, though naturally from his laid back personality.


Personality/Distinguishing Features: Andrew is laid back, and easy-going. He gets greedy for loot and will typically try to fool the crew into giving him a bigger sum of the reward with his natural charisma. He tends to make sarcastic jokes and be a bit of a joker in general, when in social situations, as well as flirting with girls quite a bit (And failing Miserably at it), despite the situation. When in combat though effective when handling a ship, he can get cocky, and will try to be the 'Hero' a lot of the time. He is lean, fit, and stands at an average height of 5'11.

 

[ToteMaus]

Appearance: She's a tall, lanky woman, it's surprising she can even work on a starship without multiple head injuries. Her skin is pale, made white and unhealthy looking by the many years spent aboard ships and away from sunlight. She always keeps her brown hair in a rather sloppily tied bun. There are dark circles under her blue eyes, and the rest of her face seems to show tiredness as well. Her posture is very relaxed, with lots of slouching. She is almost always wearing faded and oil stained coveralls. They look like they may have been olive drab at some point in the far distant past. When she speaks, she does so with a quiet and strained voice, with just a hint of an old earth accent faded by many years away from home.


Name: Erika Kowalski


Age: 32


Affiliation: Federation


Role: Chief Engineer


Personality & Bio: Erika began her life on earth, part of a long line of bankers and accountants. Erika, however, had no interest in financial affairs. Her interest was always firmly focused on all things mechanical. At the age of thirteen, she was repairing her family's household appliances. By the age of eighteen, she had joined the navy. Erika was a brilliant engineer, though held back by her laziness and lethargy. She has not been very popular on most of her assignments, thanks to her lethargic attitude and sharp tongue. Was it the rigid requirements of the military that lead to her lack of energy and prickliness? Is that just how she is? No one knows. What people do know is that it takes her a tiny fraction of the time most people take to do repairs or diagnostics (although she spends the time she gains sneaking in naps in the service tunnels). In spite of this lack of discipline, she remains one of the top Federation engineers. Perhaps this is why she was chosen for her next assignment...


Likes: Sleep, improvisation, fixing things, anything mechanical.


Dislikes: Too much hard work, other people, anything that smells like peaches.

 

[Menacing Melon]

So uh could I get a revised bio please. I've gone blank. No ideas.

Well, You have to put a bit more detail (As in a paragraph or two) into the bio as this is a casual rp not a simple rp. When creating your character and his background make sure anything like being Undying or 'Last of the precursors' is approved by the rp's creator and it is in the lore of the rp. Create a character you want to play, you should know how to describe personality, but their bio is mainly their background information and important events in their life for how they've gotten their skills/important items and how they've gotten to the place they are now.


Just take a look at mine for a quick second, not that it is perfect, but I have his age, full name, Nicknames are optional. I also have his gender stated pretty clearly, race, and affiliation. You have most of those things although the last sentence for your bio is weak, see I have 2 paragraphs at the bottom, one for personality and one for bio, I just split them because I like to describe personality and bio separately and in detail, although you can do one paragraph for both.


Also make sure you have a role on the ship, I don't remember 'precursor' as a role (Though again correct me if I'm wrong), so maybe you could be a gunner, a part of a boarding crew, or possibly be the co-pilot (If that is an option)

 

[Thinslayer]

Menacing Melon is quite right. I know the bio and personality sections are difficult to create, especially for new, undeveloped characters, but they're among the most important parts of a character sheet. The key is to have a good mental picture of who your character is. Play with him for a bit; how does he interact with others? If you asked him what his life was like as a child, how would he answer?


Now, when creating an app, be sure to make a character that will have multiple opportunities for interaction. If you're not on board the starship, you'll get isolated. The villains don't get much playtime here, so for me to give you the best play experience, I had to create a way for you to interact with people. Right now, the character only interacts with me, and that's not good.

 

[Primal Conundrum]

Name: Jacqueline Richter (Goes by Jack)


Appearance: Prior to her injuries, Jack had dirty blonde hair, green eyes, and sharp features. Standing at 5'9", she wasn't exactly imposing, but she maintained the air of a soldier.


After her injuries, Jack has been almost completely confined to her suit. Her body has been through more than what most usually survive, and the only reason she hasn't died is the extensive amount of cybernetics keeping her broken form running. None of her natural limbs remain, and her organs that weren't replaced were mostly patched up and connected to other cybernetic inputs.


Now, in her suit, she's a whopping 8 feet of metal and vengeance. The only exposed skin is her head when her integrated helmet is inactive, and even there her injuries are evident. A massive scar runs over the left side of her face, crossing the milky-white of her ruined eye and twisting the side of her mouth. With her helmet up, she could be mistaken for a large military robot.


Age: 34


Affiliation: Terran Federation


Role: Fireteam Captain, Soldier


Personality & Bio: Jacqueline comes from a long line of military veterans, and as with her brothers she joined the army as soon as she was of age. She took to the role admirably and was generally considered to be a rising star with a bright future. That future was not to be. As Jack was on deployment for a routine supply run to one of the Jovian moonbases, the convoy was hit by one of the early Free Trade Guild raids. As it was supposed to be a low-risk assignment in Earth space, the convoy was completely unprepared for the sudden ambush above Ganymede Station and was defeated in one of the most one-sided engagements of the beginning of the Free Trade conflict. Unable to reach an escape pod in time, Jack got spaced when her vessel was destroyed. Apparently, by hiding behind a bulkhead she avoided the worst of the explosion, resulting in an unconscious fall to the moon below in a leaking space suit. The brunt of her injuries apparently occurred when she entered the light artificial atmosphere at re-entry speeds, suffering massive burns across her limbs and most of her torso. She impacted at a shallow angle on the slope of a powdery crater, and it was there that what was left of her was found and recovered. Her limbs and most of her internal organs were too destroyed to save, and for a brief and agonizing period she found herself in the hospital as a quadruple amputee, hooked up to a life support system. As well as having information regarding the attack on the convoy, Jack had been shortlisted into an experimental program aimed at returning critically injured assets to the field. From her point of view, the military was offering to put her back in a body and get revenge on the people who took hers away from her.


Please let me know if I should make any changes!
