Hey guys! This thread is all about spaceships, lasers and explosions. I'm sure you all like that.

Here are the rules.

- No godmodding
- No trolling
- Swearing is allowed, but not over the top
- No excessive violence or sexual acts
- Have fun or die

Subbed. I'll work on a CS later today.

Subbed as well. I'll have a CS up some time today

So I hope this is okay even though it's not a soldier or anything like that! I'm not good at playing soldier types.

Name: Carmen Gibbs

Gender: Female

Race: Human

Age: 32

Rank: N/A? More of an advisor than someone who gives commands.

Weapons: A strong taser.

Equipment: A whole briefcase full of scientific instruments and the like.

Occupation: Astrobiologist.

Appearance: --- by nakanoart on dA. And more sciencey apparel.

Personality: Gives orders in her own lab, because she's in charge of her own lab. Slightly socially awkward in non-scientific settings. Can be a bit of a smartass, but not enough to warrant any kind of harsh discipline. Not well-equipped for actual combat, but is alright at taking care of herself in a case of self defense against one or two people. Pays/bribes? soldiers to bring back tissue samples from battles or anything involving nonhumans. Gets angry when her lab space is violated, which includes smoking (do they have cigarettes in space? I don't know), yelling, touching or moving equipment without authorization, and going near absolutely anything without goggles and gloves. She is more likely to do what you want if you give her food, just like the person writing this post.

Bio: Not a soldier of any sort, Carmen is a civilian. She was raised on Earth and had a relatively normal childhood, although she did exceptionally well in school, especially in the life sciences. She became fascinated by the idea of alien life and thus grew up to become an astrobiologist, researching the possibilities of what non-Terran life would be like (Carbon-based? Silicon-based? Something else? Would they store information in DNA or in a different medium? What is the likelihood of alien life becoming technologically advanced?)
And a year ago when the Vaskrans attacked, she knew she was looking at a hell of a research opportunity. Being one of the most qualified in her field, Carmen was hired to do any research possible on Vaskran biology in order to determine what their weaknesses and vulnerabilities are.

Name: Maerwen (Mir-wehn) Tariel

Gender: Female

Race: Vaskrans

Age: 23

Rank: Soldier.

Weapons: Nagamaki Nihonto (Long wrapping, Japanese sword)


Equipment: Books, scrolls, and/or Literature, etc.

Occupation: Aspiring astronomer

Appearance:


Personality: She uses most of her spare time to gain as much information as she can in the best way she can which is to read. Other than reading Maerwen is shy yet understands that to establish a mutual friendship she needs to be a bit more friendly. Maerwen has a silly side when she is not spending most of her time researching, but tends to be quite aggressive about it in a way that scares people away. Besides the aggressive nature Maerwen does like to listen to other opinions as it helps strengthen her own thoughts on matters, and has a habit of writing things down on a small notepad since she tends to forget things at times. Even if Maerwen is friendly she will not let anyone touch her because of the fact that soldiers had to establish a kill reflex in case the enemy were to grab a hold of them.

Bio: When she was born the generals of her world pulled her from her mothers arms, and would train her from the day she walked on nothing other than to be a soldier for their leader. The green on her arm are from branding she had to go through each time she failed training. the chain markings represented that she was not only a soldier, but that she was a soldier for the Vaskrans. What she did not know until years later was that her family would be killed after she was taken from them because of the fact that they not only wanted the children to be forever loyal, but they did not want the families to rebel. What she discovered was that she did not care if her family had died since she had no emotional attachment to them. Instead, all she wanted to do from day one was to be able to go beyond her planet into space. To be able to discover new ways, learn new things, and to be able to see for herself the vast universe. She wanted to know things outside of their world, so that is why she continued to stay in the army despite the fact that she heard a secret that was not meant for her ears. Knowing nothing other than soldier knowledge she would join the next generation of their army to be able to leave, and discover what is actually out there in the world other than just war, and death.

Name: Vivian Arcadia

Gender: Female

Race: Human

Age: 32

Rank: Lieutenant

Weapons: Arm mounted nanoblade, plasma rifle, grenades, pistol

Equipment: Extensive augmentations granting increased speed, strength, etc. Visor HUD with night vision, infrared, etc. Grapple gun, life support equipment.

Occupation: Soldier, Special Forces

Appearance:


Personality: Vivian is cold, impersonal, and to the point. While she may display the occasional bit of humor or sarcasm, she is very much focused on the task at hand. She does not relish fighting, but devotes her full effort to whatever task is at hand. She respects the enemy but still holds herself superior, and is silently prideful in her own ability. All in all, she is someone to make a soldier proud.

Bio: Born on the colony world of Antares Prime, Vivian grew up as the sole child of a mother who worked as a researcher, and a father who worked as an author. It was a busy childhood, and once she was old enough she sprang for the military, going off to join in order to escape home and to go see the universe. With such overbearing parents, it was practically a dream.

She served well, and got exactly what she wanted. Until the war began. It was during the battle of Veridian II that she was seriously injured in an explosion during a staged evacuation. She was rescued and brought to a specialized facility, where she was implanted with experimental augments, to make a new kind of soldier for this war. It was successful, and soon enough she returned to the war. Now she fights, to keep humanity safe and to bring the war to a swift and decisive end, in their favor.

Theme song: Rise of the Machines I dunno, I'm not good at this sort of thing.

I've decided to drop out of this rp.
