Full Name : Delphine Belrose
Nickname : No nickname acquired/given yet
Age : 28
Gender : Female
Sexuality : Bisexual, leaning towards men

Appearance : Delphine Belrose
Height : 5'3 (160 cm)
Identifying Features : No tattoos or piercings

Occupation : Scientist (Plant Biologist)
Physique : Slim, petite, fit (slight muscle definition)

Likes : Dark chocolate, dogs, solitude
Dislikes : Swimming, big crowds and small spaces
Personality : Delphine isn't the outgoing type of woman. She'd much rather stay at home, hunched over her work in an exasperated attempt to find something new instead of going outside and socializing. In fact, she was reluctant in signing up for the colonization program. The idea of being aboard the Kryptoria with so many other people was a bit nerve wracking at first; but the idea of establishing a new human colony somewhere far into the galaxy was exciting and new. Delphine could be characterized as shy and introverted, with a hard and cold exterior, but when she warms up to others, she could be perceived as a very kind and caring individual, worrying much more for the safety of others than her own.
Crush : None as of yet
Relationship : None as of yet

Background : Coming from a middle class immigrant family, Delphine has been pushed all her life to study. To her parents and grandparents, studying was the key to obtaining success. She almost never had any friends, which is how she came to develop her defense mechanism of keeping to herself. The one thing positive about almost having no hobbies or friends was the fact that Delphine managed to get into successful schools, getting prestigious diplomas and rising fast in the work chain... Though it did make her colleagues ask themselves if they were in the presence of a cold and emotionless robot sometimes.
Family : Her grandparents passed away a couple of years ago, before boarding the Kryptoria, and she had no siblings or aunts and uncles. Her father passed a few months before the Kryptoria, which leaves her mother as the last living relative to her.

Typical Equipment : Delphine carries around with her a handgun at all times, making sure to have a few recharges every time. When she's out exploring with other scientists about the flaura, she has a good amount of equipment to take samples of plants to bring them back to the home base. It's rare that she steps out with nothing, since she knows the dangers of this new world. She's also equipped with a genetic scanner, a state of the art technology from back home who analyzed the molecular composition of plants, giving them a good idea what resembles their plants and what could potentially be edible.

(I hope this is good <3)

Hadley Elizabeth Marble
female character.gif
Nickname : Had - Hadley or Marble by her colleges.
Age : 25
Gender : Female
Sexuality : Heterosexual

Height : 164cm
Identifying Features : She has a faint scar above her top lip, as well as one on her eyebrow.

Occupation : Animal Biologist
Physique : Fit

Likes : Soft Blankets - Reading - Animals - Studying
Dislikes : Aggressive people - Stressful situations - Loud sounds or people
Personality : Hadley is a quiet young woman, often finding herself in the company of animals over people. She prefers being alone to read or study, over being surrounded by strangers and socializing. Hadley had a decently difficult life, causing her to be more reserved and not as trusting of people she meets. She is sweet once you get to know her, and would do anything to protect who she loves. She is by no means brave, but she thinks she can be if she ever had to. After being pushed around and stepped on by strangers in her life, she often wont defend herself against people who don't know her. Though, she will defend her friends and animals.
c7cacb22f85d734bda9bba5d57222291.gif
Crush : N/A
Relationship : Single

Background : Hadley was raised in the classic Nuclear family. Her life was decently uneventful, the usual - go to school, learn, be kind, and find your way in the sea of life. Yet, when Hadley was fifteen her mother was diagnosed with cancer. Her mother was terminally ill, and had decided to refuse treatment so she wouldn't be sick for the rest of her life. This was incredibly painful for Hadley, who would she depend on once her mother died?
Her mother did an incredible job at hiding the pain she was in, until she finally passed away in her sleep after two months.
Once her mother died, her father dove off the edge. He began to drink and quickly became verbally abusive. He berated her constantly while he was drunk, which sadly was daily. When Hadley turned eighteen, she was packing her belongings to move into her own apartment when she noticed her father hadn't been seen all day. She found him in his bathroom after he had taken his own life.
It was incredibly hard to plan his funeral, but Hadley and her brother were able to do it. Then Hadley moved to new york to get her degree in Animal Biology.
Hadley and her brother rarely spoke other than holidays and birthdays, and she had made it a point to not allow addicts into her life anymore after her fathers abuse. So when she had excitedly told her brother how she wanted to be one biologists who go to Doxos, he insulted her. She had suspected he also was having troubles with addiction, and when he berated her like their father used to, she immediately cut him out.
She passed the tests with flying colors and soon found herself being walked onto the Kryptonia and put into cryosleep.
she never told her brother she had made it, and she never told him goodbye.
Family : Her mother who died when she was fifteen, her father who passed when she was twenty and her brother.
c235b444a47b08cb74e3e2e76958fd68.gif

Typical Equipment : Hadley often has light medical gear with her, including but not limited to syringes, bandages, alcohol, and a tourniquet. She also carries a Beretta 92FS with two additional clips of ammo. She even carries a small baggy with animal goodies in it, encase she encounters a hungry animal who she can assist.
 
Full Name : Reginald Pliny

Nickname : Reg

Age : 29

Gender : Male

Sexuality : Heterosexual

Appearance :
party_tricks_au.tom_worland.jpg


Height : 6'3" (190.5 cm)

Identifying Features : A large burn scar on his left palm, typically covered by gloves, and glasses.

Occupation : Ecologist

Physique : Willowy (tall, thin, light musculature)

Likes : Libraries, Plants, Rock Music, Fuzzy Socks

Dislikes : Snow, Rats, Large Parties, Horror Movies

Personality : Reg is very much not a people-person. He typically prefers the company of his work and himself to that of others. Incredibly stubborn, Reg finds it very difficult to get along with others, especially when they have a conflicting opinion on something he considers important. Most of the time, he's cool and collected, but when faced with a perceived slight, Reg is known to have a painfully sharp tongue. He has little patience for people he deems indolent. However, if you manage to get on his good side, Reg can display an uncharacteristic kindness. He enjoys whatever few friendships he has, though only so long as they don't inhibit his work, to which he is very devoted.

Crush : None

Relationship : Single

Background : The Pliny family had made their wealth generations ago in the young oil industry and preserved that wealth through the years, passing it down onto the heir, leaving only minimal inheritances to the other children. Born as an only child in a rich household, Reginald born with a platinum spoon in his mouth. Living in comfort, never in want of anything, a future of wealth, he was poised to have a luxurious life. Unfortunately, it was not to be so. When he was twelve, a large fire broke out in his family manor. His mother, trapped within the burning structure, perished. His father was paralyzed from the waist down after being struck by a falling beam. After the incident, Reg's father was hospitalized for treatment of his severe injuries. The rest of his family, all cousins and aunts and uncles of some degree, smelled blood in the water. They descended on the family fortune, picking it apart under the guise of "lessening the burden on the poor man" and leaving Reg and his father with pennies compared to what they once had. The grieving man never truly recovered, remaining a shell of his former self. Reg, seeing everything around him happen without being able to stop it, decided to shun his extended family. He took on jobs wherever he could and saved money whenever possible. Reg couldn't - wouldn't - bring himself to have to rely on the people whom he considered thieves to survive. He threw into his studies and, when he was 17, earned a scholarship to a moderately prestigious university. There, he studied ecology and graduated with distinction. Several years later, his father also passed away, leaving him with few friends and no family he cared about. When the opportunity to go to Doxos came, Reg accepted almost immediately, nothing holding him back.

Family : His mother (Deceased), father (Deceased), and extended family that he wasn't in contact with.

Typical Equipment : He carries a small first aid kit, a flashlight, a lighter, a pocket knife, and, despite his distaste of violence, a taser.

Full Name: Mags
Nickname: Mags- Presumably she had a different name at some point in her life, but she had it changed many years ago.
Age: 38
Gender: Cis woman
Sexuality: Pansexual? Asexual? Mags doesn’t seem to turn down offers of company based on the gender of who is offering, but she certainly doesn’t seek out company, physical or otherwise.

Appearance: Mags is of average height and build, with light brown skin and dark eyes and hair. Her face claim is 36 yo Anishnaabe and French Canadian actress Cara Gee, seen below:

Height: 1.65 m or 5’5”
Identifying features: Mags has been accused of having a permanent frown. She often wears dark eye makeup, and generally wears her long hair in a braid or two braids. Sometimes the braid gets pinned up, for a little variety. Her face is fairly freckled, though they stand out more when she has been getting sun.
Physique: Pretty average- maybe a bit less muscular than some of the other colonizers on account of her age and her less-active job. Her main form of exercise is running.

Occupation: Population specialist. Obstetrician/midwife, working with the med team on fertility and delivery.

Likes:
When people listen to her and respect her experience and knowledge
The anonymity of a crowd
The satisfaction of solving a problem
When she can send home healthy parents with their healthy infants
Running (sometimes)


Dislikes:
Children she has to personally interact with beyond health assesments
Robots and robotics
When she has to ask twice for something
Chocolates
Running (sometimes)

Personality:
Mags is…. Clinical, in nearly every sense of the word. Her patients receive examplarly care, but she only asks them how their day is because it could be relevant to their health, not because she is interested in getting to know them. She doesn’t share details of her own day, or tell a joke to distract from the pinch of a needle, or ask about their family. When she holds an infant it is to weigh the child and assess their needs, and she does not coo over her small patients or tickle their chubby feet.

She is also rather blunt, sometimes to the shock of others. She failed a practice exam in med school once when she evenly informed the happy couple that no, the husband was in fact infertile and their upcoming ‘little miracle’ had absolutely nothing to do with the new herbal supplements the wife had been taking. Her proctor also docked points for her immediate suggestion that she could refer them to a marriage counselor within the building, or if that wasn’t of interest, she was pretty sure there was a divorce lawyer down the street. She was only being efficient, Mags had protested. She was obviously much younger then than she is now, and is much more careful with patients, but there are still times when she comes off as rude. Luckily, most of the med staff on Kyrptoria have been working and training with Mags for three years now, and are accustomed to her communication style.

What she lacks in warmth, Mags more than makes up for in competence. Or at least the appearance of it. There are certainly things Mags doesn’t know and isn’t confident with, but she rarely shows that. When she was a practicing obstetrician, her peers were sometimes surprised by the number of repeat patients who requested her. But it cannot be denied that she knows what she’s doing, or will figure it out. She is a proud woman, and very proud of the number of hairy situations she’s managed to turn into a healthy mother and child.



Crush: None.

Relationship(s): To be determined, but probably none currently. If you think your character and Mags might have been a good fit at some point in their past (or maybe a bad fit!), please let me know. I’m always a fan of uncomfortable exs.

Background:
Mags is not much of a talker, and she’s particularly reticent on the topic of her past.

To the doctors who trained her in obstetrics when she was in her early 20’s, it was clear she had prior experience as a midwife, and was used to working under pressure and with limited resources. She was fairly successful in the field, though her bedside manner was a bit lacking. In her thirties she was asked to travel to some of the countries recently affected by war and other conflicts, to assist medically and to collect population data. This experience was fundamental to putting Mags on the career path that eventually got her recruited to the Doxos project. She had been interested in the human body as a system, and she became fascinated in human populations as a macro system.

She left active medical practice to study population trends, and worked with the team that developed the most advanced population analytics software to date. She’d been working at that company for several years when they were approached to consult on the Doxos project.

Though only brought on as a consultant in the preliminary planning phases, it was suggested to Mags that she should apply to join the project as a colonizer, and the idea stuck with her. She was an excellent candidate- She had already been involved in the project, and of the people in the company she’d been working for, she was probably the most useful. (Data analysis is an excellent skill to have, sure, but math alone won’t help you survive a new planet. Neither will software development.) She agreed to retrain in midwifery and obstetrics in order to serve on the Kyrptoria med team, and she was accepted.

Elijah’s mother, one of Mags’ few friends and a pilot for space exploration, did not return from a mission, and Mags became the teen’s guardian. They had a rough few months at first, and Mags waffled on if she was doing the right thing. When she’d agreed to abandon earth, no one on it had been relying on her.

Eventually however, Mags was able to help Elijah secure a spot on the ship’s agriculture team and the two were able to work through their differences, which had mostly been caused by the fact that Elijah was young and moody and had just lost his only parent, and Mags had no idea how to be relatable to teens.

Mags’ role on the ship is a bit unusual- Though a lot of different teams will report to her, she doesn’t have any real authority. The ship’s higher ups will consult with her about a range of topics, but they don’t have to listen to her. Much to her annoyance.

Mags and the company she used to work for gave a lot of advice to the Doxos project that went unheeded. For example, the age limitations- Mags argued passionately against it. A society needs old people, and it especially needs young people. Even after (if, Mags thinks privately) the second ship arrives, there’s going to be an 8 year age gap that the colonizers simply cannot hope to fill. Maybe if she’d been provided with several hundred bio-wombs, but she wasn’t.

Luckily, she’d already had her first year or two of work planned before they ever went into cyrosleep- All the colonizers who’d agreed to start a family when they reached Doxos, and an impressive supply of DNA samples that actually were still viable after 100 years in preservation. (Mags had been a little worried about that.) Most visits to the med bays in the past few months have either been to see Mags or someone else trained in fertility treatments, or because someone insists they are having a bad reaction to ‘space’- Allergies to recycled air or indigestion from the strawberry flavored protein packs or can’t sleep because they swear they can hear the yawning abyss of the universe.

Mags is very grateful to have her patients- Without them, she might have to take to the corridors to pester people about having children- And her sales pitch would be very depressing and likely involve the phrase ‘societal inefficiencies’, which no one wants to hear.


Family:
Mags is not married, and has no children. She has no living siblings or parents, which is part of the reason she got involved in the Doxos colonization project.

Mags does have a ‘nephew’, the son of an old friend who she assumed responsibility for several years ago. Elijah is 21 now and works with the agriculture team on Kyrptoria. She loves him, in her own way, and Elijah is very fond of her as well.


Typical Equipment:
Like most members of the Kyrptoria medical staff, Mags carries a kit that contains an array of health equipment. It’s predominantly emergency supplies in case of injuries or exposure to foreign toxin, but Mags also carries some more specialized equipment, like a fetoscope, an aspirator bulb, weigh sling, bakri tamponade, etc. She also tends to carry quite a few more linens than those not working in delivery.

blue-eyes-black-hair-caucasian-man.jpg Full Name : Alexander Smith

Nickname : Alex

Age : 25

Gender : Male

Sexuality : Heterosexual

Appearance :Blue eyes, Long dark hair(keeps it in a bun) , medium size nose

Height : 1.56 m

Identifying Features : -

Occupation : Biologist, artist

Physique : Average build, short

Likes :Honest people, drawing, discovering new species, inspecting new specimens and people with common interests.

Dislikes : Liars, unprofessionalism and arguing.

Personality : Alex comes from a family of biologists. He is very secretive with his artworks since his family didn't appreciate them. He is very easily irritated and if mad, won't respect orders.
Even tho it's easy to irritate him, he is very kind to people who he trusts, even in the most extreme of situations.
It's hard to gain his trust and if you don't have it, expect to be treated like a stranger.

Crush :-

Relationship :-

Background : He was born with dwarfism and was bullied for the entirety of his childhood, this being part of why he hates unprofessionalism . His parents have made him develop a taste for biology, since they were doctors. He didn't want to stand out because he was short so he let his hair grow. He is a very smart person, but since he was afraid of being wrong, didn't answer in classes and was characterized as stupid. He hasn't made friends on earth, except for his family. When his parents died in a car crash, he thought he had nothing anymore and wanted to take his life. The day he decided he would do it, he saw a flyer about the new Doxus planet and instantly knew he was qualified, so he tought that it's time for a new start.
Before his parents' car crash, he went to university for a degree in biology. For the first time, he was treated differently. He wasn't criticized for being obsessed with animals, neither was he criticized for liking to draw, hence why he likes people with common interests.

Family : Died in a car crash.

Typical Equipment : A sketchbook, B2 pencil, camera and a device that makes a high pitched noise to scare off predators.

Full Name: Gregory Locke
Nickname: Greg
Age: 33
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Appearance:

504b29595d975182745df7bf8953980c.jpg

Height: 192cm
Identifying Feature: Minor scarring from an angry wildcat swipe along his right wrist, often mistaken as self-harm.
Occupation:
Security, more specifically a scout with a moderate land and biological assessment role. Essentially he helps to fill in zones that drones missed while marking down any game trails, dens, hunting grounds and general points of interest. Even with this knowledge the many unknowns of the world handcuff him into the typical advice of, "Yeah you're a little less likely to die at grid E-6 than A-2. Better keep your ass clinched anyways." His job apparently also involves being a pack mule, delivery boy and babysitter for the various -ologist.

Physique: A relatively athletic build, little fat but enough wiry muscle to promise above average agility and strength.

Likes: The occasional warm bath, naps, watching animals being silly and hanging around a campfire.

Dislikes: Centipedes, cigarettes, thorny plants and dark water.

Personality:
Incredibly passionate about his work while keeping a strict professionalism considering the importance of the job. Rarely is he ever not careful and methodical in the way he observes his surroundings often times taking minutes to contemplate such minor things as a broken branch. With all that said the burden of it all can still get to him and he is human enough to at times verbally lash out, however in cooler heads he is quick to apologize. In a way this is the most obvious way the typically reserved man shows how he cares. Away from work he is a little easier to approach and is a fair partner in conversation that displays some occasionally well timed humor.

Crush: None
Relationship: Married to his work.

Background:
There isn’t much to say about Gregory. He was raised by his dad in what amounted to a semi-ordinary life in South Africa where he spent many days investigating the not as wild bush. It was a life better than most, not as good as many with its own charms. When Dad died Gregory was still just a boy by his consideration but was old enough to become a ranger at one of the local game reserves, thanks to a friend of his father. His position involved various jobs that ranged from general conservation work, guiding biologist, leading tours, to the unfortunate occasions of dealing with problem and the increasingly regular man-eaters. He would spend years in Africa before eventually offering similar services in India, but somewhere along the way he realized that Earth could only get worse. So it was incredibly fortunate that somebody found him useful enough to be apart of the colonization of Doxos.

Family: Dad is long dead and was the only family he had known.
Typical Equipment:
Like most security staff, Gregory is outfitted in a rig with ceramic plates, integrated communication, a polarized visor and a pack. Also like the others his role requires him to be well armed, as such he carries an AR-10 and 9mm pistol along with a knife. Typically his pack will include a basic medical kit which includes supplies for minor injuries, a multi-tool, other necessary supplies, flares, chemlights, notebook and pencil.

basic information:
full name: Kai Engel
nickname: n/a
age: 19
gender: Male
sexuality: Unsure

height: 5'4
identifying features: Right eyebrow is pierced, has a small music note tattoo just below the knuckle of his index finger on his left hand
appearance: Kai is delicate and almost ghostly in appearance, with a very fair complexion, white (dyed, but naturally a white-blond shade) hair and light cornflower blue eyes rimmed by thick lashes. He looks much younger than he actually is, and being short really doesn't help him there. Neither trait really bothers Kai unless it leads to him not being taken seriously, however. He prefers to dress mainly in black and white, but the most important thing to him about clothing is that it's cozy as he's quite thin and gets cold easily. soft, fluffy scarves are a favorite of his.

occupation: Nurse (apprentice/student)
physique: Thin, delicate with fine bones


[/div] [div class="tabsContent tabsContentPersonality" style="display: none;"]
persona:
personality: It shouldn't be possible for a person to display both childlike innocence and a wisdom beyond their years, yet somehow Kai manages to be both at once without ever seeming too off. He's quiet and soft-spoken most of the time, preferring to keep the peace whenever possible. That's not to say he won't speak up if he sees something wrong or unfair happening however, Kai is known to stand up for what he believes in even if his knees shake the entire time. While he appears naive and innocent to many of the darker sides of humanity, Kai is also not a blind optimist and can run towards pessimism and anxiety rather easily. That being said, he is able to calm himself most of the time and see things more rationally, though emotional responses are natural to him. As he is both sweet-tempered and trusting, it would not be difficult to take advantage of Kai, which is one of the reasons his brother is so protective of him. Being yelled at or harshly scolded will cause him to shut down and maybe even cry, though he will try rather hopelessly to hide this and attempt to correct anything he may have done wrong. Kai vastly prefers negotiating to any form of conflict, no matter the situation.

Ironically enough considering his chosen profession, Kai is quite squeamish and has a fear of blood. After a momentary panic however, he is able to calm both himself and his stomach and deals remarkably well with caring for patients with all things considered. If another person is in need, Kai is able to put aside his own feelings and focus on professionally treating whatever is before him. He works best under the guidance of others, which is a major reason he chose nursing rather than something more 'glamorous' like a doctor or surgeon. Due to his gentle hands and compassionate nature, many of the more skittish patients like being cared for by Kai, though others find he lacks backbone and leaves them feeling coddled.

likes: Sweets, cozy clothing, flowers, sunrise and sunset, cute things
dislikes: Violence, bitter or spicy foods, yelling or arguing, blood
strengths: Kind, peaceful, determined, compassionate
weaknesses: Skittish, overly emotional, squeamish, naive
skills: •Though not a veterinarian, he is capable of providing some basic care for ill or injured animals as he often rescued them growing up... or at least he was on Earth, the species on Doxos may not respond nearly as well
•A good singer despite his high and soft voice, and able to play guitar
•While not a professional, he is a reasonably skilled artist and sometimes draws pictures to cheer up patients
•Good at baking sweet and sugary desserts, even better at eating them
•Understanding and has a knack for listening and calming down people or situations

biography:
background: Though his soft nature might have you believe otherwise, Kai and his half brother Shiloh didn't have the easiest of upbringings. Their early childhoods were spent poor but relatively content, with a loving yet young and struggling single mother. Kai was a rather sickly child and grew up far more sheltered than his older sibling, who was often sneaking out and getting into trouble. Because of this, he was closer to his mother and spent much of his time playing guitar and singing in his room or rescuing and healing stray animals.

Kai's life changed forever at fifteen when their mother died in a vehicle accident. Shiloh, while only two years older than his brother, was determined to keep them together and the pair moved in with one of Shiloh's older and more successful friends. While the older boy worked multiple dead-end jobs and occasionally shoplifted to pay for their rent and essentials, Kai studied hard so that he could pursue his dream of becoming a nurse. When the opportunity of joining the Doxos colonization arose, he was both excited and absolutely terrified, but he reasoned that there really was nothing left for the pair on Earth.

family: Shiloh, his half brother, is his only known and living relative. Kai never met his father, and his mother passed away a few years ago.


[/div] [div class="tabsContent tabsContentOthers" style="display: none;"]
other:
typical equipment: The usual kit carried by medical staff on the Kryptoria, a multi-purpose pocketknife given to him by Shiloh, a small flashlight and back-up batteries, a lighter, an MP3 player and headset, a bottled or canned drink, whatever assorted candies he can get his hands on.

(i really hope this is okay!)

[div class="tabsContent tabsContentInformation"]
basic information:
full name: Shiloh Engel
nickname: Shyshy (only by Kai)
age: 21
gender: Male
sexuality: Uninterested

height: 5'7
identifying features: Snakebite lip rings and angelbite lip studs, septum piercing, colorful game and computer related tattoos on both arms and stars on stomach
appearance: Like his younger half brother, Shiloh is fair-skinned and has delicate features that make him appear younger than he really is. Unlike his sibling however, both his hair and eyes are naturally a stark shade of black, which he likes to quip match his soul. Shiloh is taller than Kai (but not by much) and is in better shape, though he's also quite thin. A fan of all things dark, Shiloh's sense of fashion could be described as edgy and a touch futuristic. He's fairly vain when it comes to his appearance and goes so far as painting his nails black and wearing chains and jewelry to complete his aesthetic, though of course he hopes it all appears effortlessly cool.

occupation: Computer programmer
physique: Thin, delicate but with some slight definition


[/div] [div class="tabsContent tabsContentPersonality" style="display: none;"]
persona:
personality: Shiloh may be a genius when it comes to computers and what makes them tick, but the same cannot be said of his people skills. Blunt, sarcastic, abrasive and with no real internal filter, he is the polar opposite of his brother and not exactly the most popular person on the Kryptoria. That being said, half the time he isn't even trying to be rude. Shiloh is brutally honest by nature, and believes it much better to point out flaws plainly than complicate situations with feelings. It isn't his intention to hurt others most of the time, but he rarely apologizes when he does. He isn't petty however, and despises drama and those who cause it. If you harm his little brother in any way though, you will see the true extent of verbal destruction Shiloh is capable of, and it likely won't be pretty. Otherwise, aside from the occasional snarky comment or blunt answer, he should generally be tolerable.

Apathetic and a loner, Shiloh much prefers the company of a screen to that of a living, breathing human. Computers make sense. They're logical and predictable and don't get offended over trivial things. Once you've learned a coding language you've learned it, but face-to-face communication is rarely so simple. With all that being said, Shiloh is capable of being charming in a cocky sort of way if he has to be, though this takes up considerably more energy (and as an insomniac, that is sometimes limited) than complaining about the ship's food options or how some of the military personnel need to shower more often. He can be won over and befriended, but doing so will take time and loyalty. He's a very devoted friend when he does trust someone, and also a lot nicer in general. When not using his programming skills for professional needs, Shiloh can often be found coding his own video games or studying the art of tattooing... likely all with an energy drink in hand.

likes: Sour candy, nighttime, anything electronic, energy drinks, solitude
dislikes: People being overly sensitive, medical needles, most healthy food, blind optimism, low batteries
strengths: Intelligent, perceptive, sly, loyal
weaknesses: Abrasive, loner, insomniac, easily frustrated
skills: •Creates fairly simplistic but unique video games in his spare time, those looking to befriend him would be wise to start by asking about, playing and complimenting his work
•A capable tattoo artist, he's always looking to learn and improve
•Practiced throwing knives back on Earth since he was 12 and is quite skilled with them. He is also able to use a handgun and has learned steady aim from the knives, but he is not as experienced with one
•While he would easily lose to most aboard the Kryptoria in a battle of sheer brute strength, Shiloh makes up for this lack with speed and wit and is usually able to defend himself against those not trained in combat if he has to, though he much prefers verbal sparring
•Good at sneaking around and hiding in plain sight, and is slight of hand


[/div] [div class="tabsContent tabsContentAbout" style="display: none;"]
biography:
background: It isn't too hard to figure out that Shiloh didn't have the easiest of upbringings, unlike his kind and caring brother who rarely lets it show. Their early childhoods were spent poor but relatively content, with a loving yet young and struggling single mother. Being the oldest, Shiloh was always the one to push boundaries and get into trouble, partly because he simply felt like it and partly because it seemed as though his mother loved Kai more than him at the time, which was irritating since he was her firstborn. He picked up coding at a fairly young age, learning and practicing all night whenever he felt frustrated or alone.

Shiloh's life changed forever at seventeen when their mother died in a vehicle accident. Being the older brother, he believed it was his job to raise Kai as best he could and ensure they weren't forced into the foster system and separated. Shiloh chose to move in with an adult 'friend' of his, and the shady-ish guy was more than happy to allow it as long as he received a rent check every month. It was still far more affordable than an actual apartment, but Shiloh was forced to work multiple jobs, swipe the occasional low value item and code websites to keep them afloat, allowing his baby brother to focus on studying to become a nurse. One of the places he ended up working was a tattoo shop, which became an interest Shiloh hopes to continue pursuing. Though the idea of sending Kai to the dangerous and unfamiliar world Doxos deeply worried him, there was nothing for them on Earth and he was sure he'd be able to protect his brother there too. Plus, Shiloh wasn't entirely opposed to experiencing the kind of adventure he'd grown up playing on his computer.

family: Kai, his half brother, is his only known and living relative. Shiloh only knew his father as a very young child, and his mother passed away a few years ago.


[/div] [div class="tabsContent tabsContentOthers" style="display: none;"]
other:
typical equipment: Throwing knives for any potential dangers, and usually a handgun when going out into Doxos, a flashlight and back-up batteries, a lighter, his tablet, MP3 player and headset, headache pills, a multi-use pocket knife, at least one energy drink, sour candy

(again, hopefully this is okay!)

Full Name : Alucard Shang, M.D.
Nickname : Al, Lucky, Doc, Shang
Age : 28
Gender : Male
Sexuality : Bisexual

Appearance : Al is a gigantic man, fed loads growth hormones from a young age, with a clean shaven and professional appearance. He puts a lot of stock into how he looks and routinely judges other people based their looks. His voice is naturally baritone, but his mother managed to get it "enhanced" to a deep bass.
Height : 6'6"
Identifying Features : His ears are slightly deformed from years of wrestling (though he drained them so they didn't become caulliflower).

Occupation : Orthopaedic Trauma Surgeon (Until recently doing his residency, and should still be doing it)
Physique : Well built from his days as a college athlete and from powerlifting, but not cut most of the time. Al finds cardio (except some sports) boring, and hates "aesthetic" workouts like bicep curls, also because they're boring.

Likes : People he's not competing with, wrestling, baseball, Dark Souls, Chicken, Peas, tea, powerlifting.
Dislikes : People he's competing with, Kill Bill (he hates these movies with a passion because of their jump cuts and cultural appropriation), soccer (an "unmanly" sport), anything sweet, relationships that last too long, coffee, cardio, and most workouts for "aesthetics" instead of weight (they bore him).
Personality : Al has lived a cushy life of privilege, but as the children of immigrants and a racial minority, he gets to claim he's received none of it. He's outgoing, personable, and friendly, but extremely arrogant. Al was not even close to the most qualified Trauma Surgeon that applied to be on the colonization team, but got in because of family connections and his moral flexibility (as shown in his willingness to agree to his brother's sinister idea - that he should double up as a dissector of alien life). However, he completely believes he is. Al's resume is one full of achievements (besides his good-but-not-great college and Med School GPAs), but critically all these achievements were because of unfair advantages. His mom, a key HGH researcher, fed him hormones probably illegally when he was young, giving him an impossible advantage in all athletic competitions. This and legacy got him into a top university, then legacy and donations got him into a top med school and secured a prestigious residency. His only real "accomplishment" was his excellent performance as a Trauma ER Surgeon, owing to his limitless energy, his sense of urgency, and his ability to work day and night with little sleep, but even there there were problems. While they praised Al for speed and ability to handle workload, Al's bosses did comment that he was "somewhat innovative". This was an understatement. On numerous occasions, Al completely threw out the book, trying untested treatments on ER patients. Prioritizing speed, he often treated his patients with the remedy that would be quickest, not that which would be best. Reckless with the lives of his patients, Al's personality thrived only in an ER, where every patient was at serious risk of dying anyway - anywhere else he would have been condemned. In short, Al is an extremely athletic, extremely energetic, smarter-than-average man who thinks he's a genius because of achievements that weren't of his own doing. Like most rich people, he credits all his achievements to himself and is completely oblivious to how his family and his looks got him to where he is.

Behind Al's intense drive is insecurity and a constant need to prove himself. When he was young, he was on the receiving end of racist jokes and felt insecure about his appearance. He has a voracious sex drive but can't settle down with one person because of a need to constantly "prove" he's attractive with new conquests. Also because of racial stereotypes, he feels insecure about his masculinity and always needs to prove it by winning at whatever he does. Having lived a life of discipline and competition, he doesn't have any patience for people's emotions. On that note, he doesn't have much patience for his own and tends to bottle them up, except (hypocritically), anger, impatience, and resentment, which he lets loose at all times.

His redeeming qualities are his intense drive to save people (though this is possibly only for the recognition), his speed, his endurance, his ability to push emotion aside, and his willingness to take any risk to get a job done. These all make him an extremely productive trauma surgeon able to perform almost "heroic" feats and clear out a crowded ER in hours. He is also extremely encouraging, supportive, and upbeat, and even a good listener. He feels a need to help almost everyone (unless he's competing with them), even in small ways.

Crush : Anyone attractive.
Relationship : Had a girlfriend he abandoned when he left.

Background : Al was the son of first generation American immigrants, a Chinese father and an Austrian mother. They were hardly a typical immigrant success story, however, both coming from backgrounds of wealth and privilege in their own countries and moving to get their post-graduate degrees done in American university, not for a better life. While studying at Stanford, his parents met and had Al, getting married two years later. Al's mom specialized in research around HGH, and believed completely in it being safe to use with no negative side effects. As a result, she embarked on a potentially criminal operation of feeding Al and his younger brother hormones taken from her lab at a young age, as well as peptides imported from Russia by mail.

Both Al's parents wanted him to be a doctor like them, but unfortunately for them, Emily's "pet project" had a "regrettable" side effect - turning Al into a giant. From a young age, Al cared more about sports than he did about academics, and thrived in that environment because of his enhancements. His favorite sport was wrestling, and that ended up being the only one he stuck with. Going to college on a college scholarship, Al won several NCAA titles but realized there was no career ahead of him, as there were only a few pro sports that paid any money at all. Applying to Medical school, Al probably did worse than some of his peers on MCAT, and his grades were good but not exceptional. However, being a legacy and having a wealthy and well connected Aunt willing to donate buildings, Al was easily accepted into Stanford Med.

Since it was close to what he really cared about, Al picked Orthopaedic Surgery as his specialization. He didn't do well in his first year of Med School, filled with general knowledge and weed out classes, but excelled as he got more specialized. His dad's connections let him get a residency at one of the top university hospitals, though the CMO made sure to tell the family how much of a favor he had done - Al's GPA and qualifications were well below what they were usually looking for. Soon, however, he turned around. With the work ethic and sense of urgency of a D1 wrestler, Al was perfectly suited to the long, unpredictable hours and constant crisis of an ER room.

With only a few ambitious doctors willing to take the risk of going to another planet when they had already secured one of the best compensated professions on Earth, Al saw his chance to cut his residency two years short and gain a permanent posting as a surgeon on another world. He had stellar recommendations from his supervisors in the ER, but more importantly, he had connections. His younger brother Lewis, having graduated with top marks from West Point four years earlier, was able to choose the well-connected military intelligence as his branch. A savvy careerist, Lewis made all the right connections and managed to be appointed the aide de camp of a four star general. His network ultimately helped in getting Al appointed as the trauma surgeon of the expedition - but on one condition. Dr. Shang would not just be treating the injured, he would also be dissecting alien life and reporting his findings back to the Pentagon, an "innovative idea" that his brother came up with, and without a doubt was the main factor in his appointment.

Family : Dr. Shang Wenzhou, MD (Neurosurgeon) (Father)
Dr. Emily Zeisling, PhD (Enhancement researcher, professor at John Hopkins University, Mother)
Capt. Lewis Shang (Brother, graduate of West Point and a shrewd, slimy careerist. Absolutely vital in getting Shang transferred out of his residency onto the first colonization team)
Shang Shiming (Aunt, wealthy restaurant chain owner in China)

Typical Equipment : Surgical equipment, a white lab coat, surgical gown.
