Ello! Can I audition for Quartermaster with Zio? [hider=Zio Blade] Name: Ziora Blade Goes By: Zio, Blade Reasoning: Zio hates his full name, finding it distasteful and too feminine- he finds nothing wrong with feminine but he prefers his shortened name(Zio) or to be addressed by his last name(Blade), or sometimes even just by his rank if he’s in a rank that can be addressed as such(Quartermaster, Sailing Master, Cook, Doctor, etc.) Age: 22 Gender: AFAB Pronouns: he/him Species: Half Leopard Looks: His ears and tail are black with white prints. He wears a torn-up black T-shirt that has one odd long sleeve and raggedy jean shorts. It’s nothing much, but it keeps him comfortable. He can shift to his leopard form when he’s cold and his fur is mostly black with white prints. He has short black hair that he cuts himself- it’s nowhere near even but he doesn’t really care. He keeps a dagger up his long sleeve and a pistol obviously strapped in its holster at his side. Personality: Zio isn’t harsh in any manner, but can be sharp. He doesn’t mind dealing damage and getting his hands dirty, but will never disobey any order unless it conflicts with a higher rank’s orders to him. If he is in a position of power, however, he has a tendency to be slightly abusive with this power- in the sense that he keeps the ship running by any means required and appears as the exact opposite of his normal behavior. His normal behavior is sharp but kind enough to care. Despite the fact that he carries one obvious weapon, he’s never pulled it on anybody unless in self defense in his life- except for his ex-captain- but he never talks about it. Other: Zio, unlike many half-felines, is not afraid of water in any manner. He’s actually a pretty good swimmer. He can pack a punch when he needs to, but prefers to use ranged weapons and sometimes- rarely- knives, daggers, etc. Experience: Zio was Quartermaster on his old ship, the [i]Duchess[/i] until he was accused of attempted mutiny. He hadn’t attempted mutiny. He knows his way around being Quartermaster and regular crew, and exactly what to, and what not to, do. He’s used to a position of power, but can be in a non-powerful position and be just fine- the pros of being a transgender high ranking on a homophobic ship though it was one of the reasons he was accused of mutiny. Role: Audition for Quartermaster or Master-At-Arms if not Quartermaster. Reg crew if not either. [/hider]
