Born in the thriving city of Szeged, Hungary, Miklós was the first and only son of Andris and Noemi Puskás. Right from the start, Miklós's parents saw that he was a bright lad academically. They placed him in honors classes and proved to excell in his studies in grade school and graduated Suma Cum Laude in his high. From there, he applied to the National School of Naval and Aeronautics in Budapest with a strong focus on military tactics.

Even from an early age, Miklós had a starry eyed fascination with the Goliath steam ships that stretched on towards the horizon and he wanted to make it his life long goal to command a fine vessel for himself. He sure had the enthusiastic fire to do so to say the least. His childhood memories were chock full of reliving the fanciful tales of Captain Andoneus, a legend in the airship world who, by rumor only navigated the entire world 10 times, each at a different latitude and exploring every corner of the world. Miklós wanted to BE that captain. But like every childhood dream, the idea of flying fun and fancy free died off. His parents always did try to push him into a 'sensible' career choice and the military was the only common ground they could both agree on.

It was during his time in the navy that he met what he dreamed to be the love of his life, Cecília Bordas, a culinary genius on the SMS Eildiche on which Miklós had also served as a gunner. The two quickly became something of an item often stealing shore-leave time together. It was the closest Miklós had ever gotten to that childhood dream of exploration of the seas and doing so freely. She made him feel like that stary eye'd child. Despite the strict guidelines advising against it, Miklós and Cecília had publicly announced their engagement.

His career as a naval officer seemed to mirror his expectations. Within 3 years of duty, he had been assigned first mate to General Tilos of the SMS Eva. And with General Tilos's retirement rapidly approaching, it had seemed that Miklós's life long goal of becoming a captain would finally be realized. That is, until things took a rapid turn for the worse. After making a rather unpopular decision to turn tail and run in the battle of the Red Sea, General Tilos's crew viciously mutinied into piracy, murdering the glorified General and taking Miklós as hostage. For 3 years more Miklós served on that ship, though more as a cabin boy among pirates. Word of General Tilos's murder reached the Capitol and subsequently, the SMS Eva's disappearance from history. It was written that the SMS Eva had crashed and burned in the battle of the Red Sea.

All the while Miklós had been itching for the right time to flee. The airship never stayed in one place for too long lest raising suspicion but lady luck visited him one night as the engines failed downing the once glorious ship. However, the luck didn't last long. With nothing left, the band of pirates dragged Miklós home to Hungary claiming that he was responsible for the General's death and the theft of the Steamship. The naval academy slapped him with a dishonorable discharge and was banished from Hungarian borders and forced to leave his engaged lover forever without even a goodbye.

With nothing left, Miklós fled across Europe picking odd jobs where he could. Catching rides from Country to Country. Once the rise of Napoleon came to be, Miklós couldn't stand to let such a dictator seize control of the world and began to desperately find work on a military grade vessel. He sent his resume to every recruiting sector available but nobody would accept the black stain that haunted his name. Nobody except the Captain of the Pegasus that is...

Name: Hamish "Digger" Graham

Age: 30

Occupation: Gunnery Officer

Biography: Hamish Graham was born in December 1777, related to the Stewart Clan through his mother's side of the family. He had a fairly easy life as a child, but was educated at some of the finest schools in the United Kingdoms of England, Scotland and Northern Ireland. He was trained to speak French, Latin and Italian and studied the following subjects: mathematics, Reading, Writing, Physics, Rhetoric, European History, Modern economics, alchemy, biology, geometry, and Poetry.

When he arrived at age 12, he was educated in the conduct of naval operations for both sail and steam. He learned how the various systems worked and understood the chain of command. He was disciplined in naval tactics as well as the conduct of shore parties to include the use of standard muskets and flintlocks. He has been fencing with either the rapier or the cutlass since he was 12 years old and prefers the cutlass over the rapier, but is skilled with both.

At age 16, he went to sea as an Ensign and made his way through the officer ranks to Second Officer aboard the Pegasus. During his 14 year career with the Royal navy, Digger has served as Officer of the Watch, Navigator, Ship's Engineer, Gun Division Commander and his current position as Ship's Gunnery officer. In this position, Digger coordinates the activities of all gun divisions aboard ship. There are several Gun divisions which contain three or more batteries per division with four to six guns per battery. His current ship has fewer guns than what he is accustomed to and feels more like one Division than two.

Weapon of choice: Cutlass and a pair of "Sea Service" flintlock pistols.

Orientation/Relationship Status: Terminal bachelor

Audition: Hamish previously served aboard the HMS Royal Sovereign, a 100-gun first rate ship of the line that saw action at the Battle of Trafalgar. Due to extensive damage during the engagement with the French and Spanish fleets, the Royal Sovereign was decommissioned soon after the British victory in the skies over Trafalgar. Of the ship's 850 human and automaton crewmembers aboard ship, only175 humans and 48 machines survived the battle. Hamish, who was the highest ranking survivor had served as a Division Commander of four starboard batteries; a total of 24 guns. After recuperating from injuries in Portsmouth for six months, Hamish was reassigned as Gunnery Officer aboard the Pegasus. He has found his new assignment to be fulfilling for him, yet is a bit off-putting due the size of the smaller Brig. Afterall, the Pegasus is no First Rate ship of the line. Regardless, Hamish is happy to be serving His Majesty's Ship aboard the 28-gun Pegasus.
