Great bio, Maxxor! One thing i'm a little concerned about however is the bomber side. As a method of warfare, it's a little outdated. Powerful fleets such as the ones maintained by BESC can bombard targets from orbit with a 100% accuracy and 100% kill rate. Old style BOMBS AWAY! tactics aren't really very logical anymore. :\ If a target is needed gone, they'll just send a gunboat round and obliterate it from a couple of hundred miles away.

I see. Could I change the Flaming Dragons from a squardon into the name a gunboat, and make Hendricks the helmsman?

I want to make a CS that doesn't look downright 'free rp' compared to everyone else's. I really feel inadequate here. It's not as if I'm free rp standard either. I've been roleplaying in the casual section for years.

Full Name: Taleste Jot-Anne

Age: 19

Race: Human

Appearance: Taleste is just under average height, skinny, and has neck-length thick brown hair. Her eyes are green, and her face would be described as 'pretty' instead of 'beautiful'.



Personality: Taleste , on the outside, looks ditzy and happy-go-lucky. An optimistic floozy who never tries for anything, or uses her brain, and simply hasn't had to deal with the consequences yet. But she's smart. She tends not to show her brains because it's more fun to disarm people with them, and take them by surprise. Smart may not do her justice. She is downright cunning. But despite this, she is still a mostly normal person, and the thought of putting herself in danger or killing another person don't really appeal to her.

History: Taleste was born in one of the massive towering apartments that belong to the lower-lower class. Her parents split up when she was two years old so she was raised by her dad's best friend and his partner. She never saw her parents, and to this day she's never met them, nor does she want to, for this sort of thing isn't uncommon in the area she lives.

She was 14 when she first stole something, and she grew addicted to the feeling. She practices pickpocketing until she became really good at it. It was also at this point in her life when she developed her love of partying. The club scene was a great place to nick some stuff, and the social aspect was appealing to. She made a lot of friends, tried every drink under the sun at least once, and lost her virginity, all before she was 16. By this time, she was quite rich. She struck out on her own, and managed to buy her own flat in the middle-lower class part of the city. An uncountable number of off-on relationship later, she decided that she needed to clean her life up. She was finally starting to mature. She need to get more serious about her life. She didn't want to get a job. She wanted something...bigger.

Occupation: Pickpocket

Weaponry: None (yet)

Augments: None

Since we -still- don't have an IC, I got bored. So I wrote Re's backstory in story form.Now that I wrote that, I'm not actually sure that it's a bad thing to not have the IC. It means I don't get to write with you, but it gives me incentive to write alone. Someone stop me from thinking! Quick! >.>

Aaaaand spontaneous lobotomy. Your wish is my command.

Nice one Silver.

No.

Silver, that's a great bio? Don't feel inadequate here! Taleste is actually a great character to have in the roleplay because it brings a degree of normality. I love the little details here, and i think you'll do well in the club scene. Because you're right, Babylon's nightlife is...explosive. You'll most likely bump into a certain Jack Thegn during your pickpocketing sprees in the huge slo-mo clubs in Bakara District. Accepted!

Sounds good! However disregard my Gunboat terminology. That's just a throwback to my nation's unfortunate heritage of 'sending a gunboat round' to our poor african colonies. Spacecraft have loads of different designations, that roughly correlate with seafaring ships. (Carrier, Capital ship, Dreadnought etc.) Imagination is key here. BESC is the largest and best funded fleet operating in the Outremer system, but corporations and individuals are also allowed to own military spacecraft.

I plan on elaborating all of the tech available (with pictures) soon. Real busy with work at the moment. :( Most of the fleet is too large to actually penetrate the atmosphere, which means they've been built and are maintained up in space. However there are classes of ship that are designed for re-entry and low orbit combat. Any ideas for names of Ship class or designation for these?


The variety of ships is staggering, mainly because of BESC's hideously bloated defence R&D budget. Some look like they were built for ceremony but can still hold their own in combat:


Privately owned craft come in unlimited shapes and sizes, some egotistical owners also pride themselves in 'designing' their own craft.

Yay! You guys are awesome.

We try.

There are also off-planet structures, like AI controlled Magnetic Accelerator Cannons and the manufacturing yards i mentioned earlier. Trying to find a picture for them but here's one for the defenses. Put in place in the run up to the Vrangan Blitz, they prevented the ground defenses from being overwhelmed by sheer number of ships. Many of them were boarded and destroyed (a lá Halo 2) and the ones that were left have fallen into disrepair now.


Here's quite a nice photo from the Vrangan Blitz. It featured some of the most intense fighting on Outremer since the First Contact War. I want to visit it in some way, whether its through data logs or something i don't know. What do you guys think?

Vr simulators for military men?
Simulated Wars would be a good way to train troops.

:O That's a brilliant idea! Ender's Game style. Good plan Batman! <3 I'll have a think about some kind of BESC university.

Mayhaps relics of the past war can play a part in the current conflicts. In the form of old caches of weapons, crashed ships, automated yards in space, etc, that various factions might be in contention to control?

Oooh, that's really good too! Maybe for example a Rampant Mind creating runt spacecraft from spare and obsolete parts to defend a long derelict Shipyard?

Yeah :D Gusta. And some faction learning of that and some valuable weapons/ships that might or might not still be there, and might or might not be controlled by said Mind. Like an orbital gunship.
