CHARACTER SIGN-UP THREAD





SEE "OVERVIEW" FOR MORE INFO






​

In addition to your main character I expect members to create peripheral characters. By peripheral, I mean that these people could also be valuable members of the crew but not necessarily required it interact with the main characters all the time but can appear when needed due to varying circumstances. These could fill the empty positions on the ship especially since there are only a maximum of four of us.


Ship Positions:


•Captain // mp


•Commander // mp


•Lieutenant-Commander // ANYONE???


•Helmsman//w


•Navigator//u


•Tactical officer//u


•Security officer//z


•Science officer*//mp


•Medical chief*//z


•Head engineer*//w


•Counselor//mp


•Recorder//u


•Fighter pilot x3//mp//w//z


*those who may have assigned ensigns or one or multiple personnel under them.


Crew members can have multiple roles, ex. Captain will also be an engineer in spare time but could not be a fighter pilot because it requires him to leave the ship, or roles that may not always be active can take up a secondary. Also, quite a few, but not all, of the peripheral character will need to be cyborgs or androids to reduce resource consumption and for added plot and character development down the road.


Format Character information as shown below. Note main characters in bold.


Name


Species//Gender//Age (min. 20 max. 26 their mission is based primarily on their youth)


Rank


Brief Personality


Prevalent Background information and experience


Relationships

Ozra Gradient


Human Female, 26


Rank//Captain


Ever since she could remember she had been a warrior, brave and fearless. While most little girls would squeal and run from other little boys chasing them holding out worms skewered on sticks, she'd pick up the things and chase the boys around. In terms of her childhood, she was a rebel, head-strong and defiant. She grew up taking pride in her scars, even if she did get them in practice, to her they were a mark of strength and superiority. As she grew older and matured she grew disciplined and determined. Ozra is known for making careful risks, known for making difficult decisions when it counts and taking responsibility for them. She has a strong sense of right and wrong, will go to great lengths to fight and protect her Nation, her beliefs, and her comrades. She is brave and will be the first to step into the thick of it all. She is a basic woman of necessity, brilliantly cutthroat professional and in her personal lifestyle but she enjoys a good sense of humor.


Ozra is a legend at the Academy for her performance on paper and success rate on trial runs under her command. Unless you know her personally you wouldn't know much from the grapevine, she is a private individual.


Relationships//She keeps good standing with most of her company.

Spoiler

Cameron Sixcto (Sick-toh)


Human Male, 24


Rank//Commander


Cameron is best at solving puzzles, things that require an immense time of dedication and concentration. He doesn't think outside the box, but outside the three-dimensional polyhedron that is his mind.


Relationships//He's great friends with J.R. and Florence for many years pre-academy. Some of the crew he has yet to work with, he is not one to make assumptions of people.

Spoiler

J.R. DeLucca


Human Male, 24


Rank//Fighter Pilot


He doesn't give much thought in what other people's personal opinions of him. He speaks his mind--though most of the time, it comes off as rude to other people, though he views it as pointing out the otherwise obvious truth. J.R. is fairly social, he knows how to tell a good story. J.R. likes the company of others, especially the ladies; however he is fearful of commitment. His personality may seem a bit impulsive. He's the first to a fight.


J.R. might be hard to get along with sometimes, but when it comes down to work, preferably flying, he takes it seriously and there's no denying that he's one of the best there is.


Relationships//Cameron is easily his best friend, however he doesn't understand how the man could keep company like Lore around. Florence and he have been at odds for many years. J.R. has a particular rivalry with Franko.

Spoiler

Thea Primark


Human Female, 25


Rank//Counselor


Relationships//She prides herself on being in good standing with most of the crew. After all, everyone deserves a friend.

Spoiler

Aleksandr Sothan

Relationships//Easy to get along with but mostly keeps to himself and his department.

An excellent little hunter, specially cleared for the voyage.


Relationships//Often keeps the company of those who least want it.

[Wiggle]

Jakob Yvynskov


Cyborg//Male//24


Head Engineer


Jakob is quick witted, intelligent, kind, stubborn, a bit of an eccentric, and has a quick temper.


Jakob is a master engineer, and his time not spent keeping the ship and other things in tip top shape, is spent building and testing new inventions and things for his prosthetic arm, which he built from scratch. The victim of a freak accident, Jakob lost his arm some years ago, and refuses to talk about it, even getting to the point of being angry when someone asks him about it. Jakob reserves no right for error or misjudgment from his crew and will come down hard on any who make a serious mistake, everything must be done right if they're to succeed in their mission.


Jakob is in good standing with most of his crew, and generally well liked among the rest of the crew.

Rian Diens


Human//male//23


Helmsman


Rian is a huge risk taker, and not because they may be necessary, but because he's always looking for a thrill, a laugh, a good time. Whatever he can do to have fun, Rian will do it. It has often lead him to close calls, but he always seems to come out on top.


Rian has been flying ships for as long as he can remember, but never really decided to actually pursue it as a career. He always told those who asked him that he was volunteered to do so, and has never looked back since.


Rian is an easy guy to get along with, and isn't really a big fan of conflict, and always tries to be on everyone's good side.

Franko Jorgon


Human//Male//22


Fighter Pilot


Franko is arrogant, reckless, brash and sometimes downright mean.


Franko isn't much for sharing life stories, and especially not to strangers or coworkers. Perhaps if someone was to get close to him, and get under his tough exterior, then perhaps he may let something slip out.


Not many people like Franko, mostly because of his need to outdo everyone. He particularly doesn't like J.R. DeLucca, seeing as the guy always shows him up.

[Uncle ShortyB]

Kristoph "Krow" Mercer


Cyborg Male, 23


Tactical Officer


Krow isn't unpleasant, but he takes his job very seriously. He's more likely to warm up to someone if they don't mind sitting down with him and having a leisurely chat over drinks, but if they refuse he doesn't generally hold it against them. He's very blunt, almost to the point of rudeness, but it all stems from a concern for making sure that if a fight does happen the odds are heavily in their favor.


Krow dropped out of school fairly late, and spent most of his life doing two things; working on a scavenger ship, and fighting in illegal matches down by the docks. He used most of the money he got from the fighting to get black market modifications done, and after a while adopted the name Krow due to some old fighter's insistence on calling him Crow T. Robot. He doesn't talk much about the scavenging ship, insisting that it was just a cover job to keep the cops off of his back.


Krow is on decent terms with most of the crew, but prefers to stay away from Franko, mostly because he doesn't want to get caught up in the "I'm the best" contest.

Spoiler

Markus Zittel


Android Male, looks to be about 20


Navigator


Markus doesn't have too much of a personality to speak of. He doesn't speak too much, despite being of Superior intelligence, but that's more because he doesn't really have anything to say. He just prefers to hang around on the occasions he isn't having to figure out where the ship needs to be headed next.


Markus is on fairly neutral terms with everyone on the ship. When asked how he feels about Krow, however, he just shakes his head and mumbles something about Krow being a moron, and tries to change the subject when pressed for more information. Krow knows how he feels but ignores it, since "That damn thing couldn't shoot a gun if I cut off his hand and pulled a trigger with it".

Spoiler

Alanis Brookes





Cyborg Female, 21


Recorder


Alanis isn't a happy person; She isn't mopey, however, just irritable and rude. She's not the type of person most people would choose as their friend, but those that do really only see the rudeness reduced.


Alanis worked as a secretary for a couple years in school and joined the Solar Navy to get away from that line of work. Understandably, her position as recorder is done very efficiently as a result of this, but at the cost of her having the personality she does.


Alanis isn't on very good standing with the crew, least of all Cameron. Krow thinks she's okay, but that's mostly because she swears more than he does.

Spoiler

 

[Zylvia]

Florence Lore





Human // Female // 22


Medical Chief


Florence is outspoken, perceptive and stubborn. Her mind functions on deductive logic and her humour stems from sarcasm, puns and good-natured teasing. She's not the toughest of the lot by a long shot, but that isn't to be mistaken for weakness. Rather, she's empathetic and selfless - traits that, paired with her tedious study of chemistry and biology during her time at MIST, led to her eventual promotion to medical chief. Florence is social, but also quick to anger and prone to grudges. She's proud - rightfully, but sometimes overly - and loves learning new things and taking risks.


While she's on good terms with the majority of the crew, she detests DeLucca and refuses to explain why beyond one phrase: "he's a pompous bastard." Their strained relationship dates back to their high school days at MIST.

Questral Proxima





Cyborg // Male // 25


Security Officer


Questral is mostly easygoing and laid back. He prefers to avoid conflict, but isn't above violence if it really comes down to it. He isn't much of a talker, usually staying quiet until either spoken to or drunk. He is, however, a particularly attentive listener and has an eye for detail that few do. It is due to his silent vigilance that he hears almost all that goes on around the ship, like an omnipresent presence. Only when things get especially nasty does he step in to mediate. Despite his seemingly endless patience, however, Questral is fierce and harsh when all self-control is lost. He lost both his legs in a plane stunt gone wrong and likes to joke about his stupidity in his younger days.


As security officer, he tries to stay on good terms with everyone on board. It's working with varying levels of success.

Scorpio Haines


Human // Male // 23


Fighter Pilot


Scorpio is proud, arrogant and a bit of a player. He knows exactly how talented and good-looking he is and tends to flaunt it whenever he can, particularly in front of the ladies. He's always ready to do the wrong things for the right reasons and is the first one on board with a risky plan. Despite his trademark badboy personality though, he is a good person at heart and will show his true colours only to those who bother breaking through his asshole exterior.


He doesn't really care much for his personal intimacy with the crew, so long as they remain civil with each other and friendly while drunk. He does, however, care particularly little for Alanis and Franko. Their personalities clash with his.
