Tips: 0.00 INK Postby Pencil_Me_In on Fri Dec 18, 2009 11:31 pm

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the DSS Oroboris. You have proven yourselves the best of the best and as such have been selected for the most dangerous and necessary mission this galaxy has ever conducted. Your home base will be the Deep Space Station Oroboris located on the farthest point of the eastern rim of our solar system. From there you will launch an expedition to the adjoining system to charter and catalogue any and all planets and inhabitants that you encounter.

Since the decaying of our home planet Earth began in 2010 we were forced to look for alternate sources of living. The entire planet united under one banner in hopes of preserving the human race. It began with space cities. Entire countries were gradually evacuated from Earth to designated stations. From there, our technology increased and we were able to biodome structures that operated similarly to large greenhouses. Plant life and all manners of vegetation were reintroduced. By 2050 we had perfected. There are now 28 cities we so named: The Colonies. However, by this time mankind’s population decreased from 7 billion to 80 million. A devastating loss to our kind. However, as we slowly repopulate and rebuild ourselves to our former glory it is becoming apparent that we will no longer be able to inhabit The Colonies forever. We must find a planet and begin rebuilding once again.

That is why we have called the seven of you here. This mission is of utmost importance. Together you make up Expedition Ironstar

After this, Jason immersed himself into military tactical training so that he could join the Ironstar Elite team and thus earned himself the CO position.

Appearance: Lotte isn't the most gorgeous woman around, she's got the square face, clear skin, bright blue eyes that are always hidden beneath thick framed glasses, long bright blonde hair and a slender, but not really athletic figure. Take away those dreadful glasses, slap on a small amount of make-up and stuff her in a cocktail dress and she'll blow you away. She's slightly awkward, and has very unappealing habits.

Full Name: Liselotte "Lotte" SchoÏler
Code Name: N/A
Age: 28
Date of Birth: May 5th, 2022
Country of Origin: Germany
Colony Origin: Colony 4
Living Family Members: Sister, Brigitte.
Marital Status: Single
Biography: Lotte, as a child, surpassed the intelligence levels of her classmates. Although her family was never high ranking or wealthy for that matter, Lotte has earned her education strictly by a stroke of luck and being at the right place and at the right time. She sped through school with unbelievably high ranking grades, and by the time she was twenty-five, the woman was a skilled surgeon, medical technician/physician, and with psychiatric background. Instead of trying her hardest to get into the Ironstar Elite Team, they had asked her if she could fill the role most appropriate to her skills. Although, the woman hasn't had any military training whatsoever, her intelligence and skill couldn't be wasted simply working at a local hospital; the best were needed on Oroboris.

i'd like to reserve a spot as the combat and explorative specialist for a second team, if you have one. will post profile in a moment
We are who we are, not who we are meant to be, and anyone who says otherwise deserves what they get...which in my case would be a whole lot of freaking lead.

Appearance (realistic pics only): Image (Dude behind blodie)

Full Name: Lance Corporal Jack Swagger
Code Name: Stray Dog
Age: 19
Date of Birth: April 14, 2031
Country of Origin USA
Colony Origin Colony 13
Living Family Members: none
Marital Status: none?
Biography: Jack was born on one of the worst colonies still running, growing up the hard way, learning how to put the other guy down before he even got the chance. He never went to high school, but still, he studied quite a bit on his own due to simple interest. When he came of age and joined the Marines out of sheer lack of anywhere else to go, they labled him a 'Military Prodigy' and threw him right into special ops, namely force recon. It took Jack no time at all to fall in the the other soldiers there and earn their respect, trust, and even, when he got to corporal, complete loyalty. However, when he first got leave, he discovered that his sister had been killed while visiting friends on another colony. Jack was so torn up about it that he ended up running away in the middle of drills. It took everyone, even the recon and sniper instructors, six hours to find his trail and another ten to find him in the flesh, by which time he was sleeping. They busted him down a single rank, though it would have been more if he wouldnt have made his DIs look like idiots. Jack heard about the Ironstar project and decided to apply, figuring that he was done taking life, at least for a while, and that it was time to save a few.

Um..you can go ahead and be on the initial team, I don't have a probem with that, but your character is a bit too young to be the head of weapons and exploration, so I could have him as a junior officer. And, not to offend, but he seems a bit Gary-stu with his lifestyle of being "the most awesomest fighter" type so I'm going to keep an eye on that.

When Rincewind finishes his profile I'll see what he's comfortable with.
