First post up, this might be the longest solo intro I've ever written

<Snipped quote by ClocktowerEchos>

nice post, and nightmare sequence, that japanese civil war is really F'd up, poor kaga.

could you make the ending bit just a tiny more clear? it makes it looked like shes returned to her plane in the hangar at the end of the post but all pilots have to stick around in the common room till roland starts the mission.

Its the Sengoku Jidai with modern weapons. The old one was deadily enough so I thought it'd be that square with modern stuff.

Anyways, seems like I'll have to edit somethings then >.>

I wonder if Nishi-chan set a new standard of people sleeping in their planes

Pilot: Lennard Bronnard [+]

Name: Lennard Bronnard Elias Kliemer the Third
Age: 27
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 176 lbs
Pilot Class: Fixer
Equipment: .44 Magnum revolver, .22 Caliber pistol, .44 Magnum (new model), 'Len Khilen' lever action rifle he sometimes carries on hunts, A handy Swiss-army knife, A boot knife.
Nationality: German
Appearance: Lennard has an outward appearance that would most specifically render him as a ragged, handsome gentleman under the dirt and dust of his workplace. Renounced by his colleagues as a decent repairmen, those who had not the acquaintance of knowing his profession will fall victim to their prejudices of thinking a man such as Lennard to be insane and strange in his habits. When he is not working, the Captain appears to be a normal human being, intelligent and somewhat charming in his conversations with people on the outside. Physically, he is comprised with round and broad facial features along with green eyes and dusty brown hair to compliment is German Appearance.
Personality: Intelligent, Laborious when it comes to his work, Calm, Sarcastic, Funny.
Skills: Huge Aviation/Tech Nerd, Veteran of war, Pianist and Composer (He once played for Royalty), Worked for several illustrious companies before he became a criminal.
Bio: Lennard comes from a stable-income family who specifically work in an aviation department for a famous multinational corporation which specializes in both military and aviation technology. Since childhood, Lennard has always had a deep interest in mechanics and technology in general so much that he even took it as far as creating his first Airship steam-assembly engine at the age of eight; It would not be an over-statement to call the boy at the time a 'child prodigy' which caught the attention of many aviation companies everywhere as he was taken on several occasions for job interviews for the company. However, his strange and narrow-minded obsessions with technology had made him drawn away from people and soon Lennard found himself out of a job due to his own disconnections with people.

During the great draft when he was 19, Lennard was called for duty and took the position as a Aviation Mechanic and a part-time battle air-naval aviator which required him to conduct tests on the main ship's engines. In this line of work, he would never be in any sort of danger due to his important role to his crew/staff members aboard their airship vessel. It was not until one day when the entire airship carrier he was on went off course, only to be shot down by enemy fire pilots/heavy artillery. The grand ship was taken down around 500 feet from the surface and crash landed behind enemy lines.

Sadly, Lennard was one of the only crew members to survive as none of his good friends made it out alive as he and several other crew members had to survive and evade enemy patrols who began to hunt them down. Out of the 2000 naval crew members who were aboard that ship, only 155 men survived the crash, and out of the 155 men who survived the crash, only 6 men survived the events that later took place. This event changed Lennard's life forever, as he soon began to become a totally different person, one who completely had his optimism drained due to the consequences of seeing and doing terrible things in hasty moments of war in order to survive. Years after the incident, he was awarded a metal of honor by the high commander of the Royal Naval Air force, a medal (as well as any other badge he had earned during service) which he put on the graves of all his friends who had died during the war. Lennard now lives almost completely withdrawn from his family and works as a freelance who takes jobs from almost anyone including thieves, pirates, or even mob bosses.

When he was given a chance at redemption from his former life of whoring, drinking, and sleeping his troubles away, Lennard could finally be apart of a group notorious for their virtues in making the world a batter place.

Theme Song: The Sky Ballet

KG69-01B1A, "Hammerklavier" [+]

Name: KG69-01B1A, Hammerklavier
Description: This aircraft is built off a pre-war hybrid plane which was originally manufactured by an old company, crumbled from the result of war and inflation that managed to survive the wars which pursued afterwards. As the years passed afterwards, many planes similar to this were scavenged and later rebuit as effective warplanes to gain an advantage over enemies. Such relics of the old world were considered as treasures to those who sought them for combat purposes and many paid a good price to those who sold them. In the same way Der Hammerklavier was founded and rebuilt by the military which Lennard would soon be employed by and would also be a plane he'd later own (and later sold for a swift discount) for his services as a part-time combat aviator and mechanic. She is built to be nimble, sturdy and can take quite a beating to gunfire which is proven to do well in combat.
Plane Type: Twin-Engine, Hybrid.
Extra Aircraft Notes:

• Weight: 12,000 lbs
• Armor: .5 inch ballistic armor around cockpit.
• Speed: 275 MPH (1,240 at jump speed)

Weapons Descriptions:

• Three Aden Canons, 30mm
• Two SNEB Pod rockets, 62MM
• Two Single forward M2 Browning Machine guns, 50 Cal rounds
• Ten PARS 3 LR Anti-Tank Missiles
• Twenty-five Hydra 70 Missiles
• 8 missile/rocket/special gadget type weapons of any kind, for each one it will add to your weight

Weaknesses: As impeccable and impressive as the vessel was during its day, years and years of lacking maintenance yielded a plane on the verge of reaching an old age. There are several problems with the plane due to lack of repair although due to an incompetent pilot but the lacking tools required to amend them. As a consequence, the plane often has trouble starting and will occasionally hick-up mid air which probably also indicates that the Hammerklavier may need an engine overhaul, no easy task to find the pre-war tools to fix it. Apart from a few needy repairs, the plane runs smooth as it should normally run. However, because the Hammerklavier is so thick, it maneuvers pretty slowly compared to other post-war vessels but also can take quite a beating.

Past Encounter: No one really knows how old the plane really is, although it was scavenged and later had another plane built around it's unique engine. Though old, the plane had proven to finally show its worth in combat many times. It's been beaten and repaired many times in its day and is Lennard's most precious plane to this date.
