Hi there, this looks awesome.

I have an Australian Jaeger-Engineer nearly done, and can post her tomorrow. :)

Alison Robin

18 | Female | 'The Puppy'

Sexuality:
Unsure. She's not really interested in people that way. Although she likes to joke that she's attracted to Jaegers (she's fairly sure she's joking there).

Relationship status:
Single

Government agency representing:
Australia

Job:
Jaeger Engineer/mechanic, with the hope of one day being a Jaeger Pilot

Description:
A little on the short side Ali actually wears a pair of semi-built up military boots. She has pale skin and short dark hair, midnight eyes that dominate her face, and can always be found wearing an oversized pair of headphones.

Personality:
Quirky and optimistic, Ali isn't someone you'd expect to see in an army base, due to both her age, and her almost-innocence. She's seen some pretty nasty stuff, what with living in Aussie through quite a few Kaiju attacks, but she still generally seems to have this amazing love for the world. Jaeger obsessed, she loves tinkering and building and could talk your ear off given half a chance.
Seeming to always be in constant movement, Ali cannot seem to stay still, she's hyper enough that the nickname 'puppy' isn't really suprising.

History:
Growing up during the kaiju wars, in Australia no less, Ali has seen her fair share or terror and destruction thanks to giant rampaging aliens. She spent most of her childhood in and around Jaegers 'helping' Sara, her biological aunt and mother figure, with the construction and maintenance of the Australian Jaegers. Living in the Australian Shatterdome was an interesting time, she was one of the only children on base, and it could be really really lonely. In 2024 when she was nine, the Australian shatterdome was closed down in favor of the wall project, her grandfather, Jed, Jaeger designer and mechanic, was sent with Striker Eureka to head her maintenance crew, and Ali was left in Aussie with no home and no Jaegers. She spent that year living in the countryside with Sara at the family's farm house where she tried to be a 'normal' girl.

After the war ended Jed came home, believing that the threat to earth wasn't over yet. So while other places round the world researched other things; solo piloting, better weapons, greater efficiency, ecctra , ecctrea, Sara and Jed started looking into ways to dual-core Jaegers, so that they could run digital, (it was generally more efficient), but be able to switch to analog if need be. Between going through her rebellious stage, (they threatened her with not being able to help with Jaegers when she was naughty) and actually attending school, (Boring as hell and not enough on the schematics of Jaegers) Ali also helped out.
Currently Dual Core's work up to a point. It is possible to wire them up so either can be working, but switching requires a complete semi-manual reboot.

She made a few friends at school, and spent the years as normal as one can while video chatting with engineers round the world and building Jaegers in the back yard.

At eighteen Ali, and Sara, were 'conscripted' as head mechanics for the Australian Jaegers and sent to London. She's currently working on her own style of Jaeger, trying a different angle, better balance, more stability, greater speed and agility, if it works.

Jaeger Classifications:
Anything below a Mark 5 is drift required,
A few Mark 6's are drift compatible, with most being required. (Works better with a partner even if only compatible)
Mark 7's are all drift compatible but not required,
and anything classified as a Mark 8 or up is Solo, with the occasional drift compatibility.

Australian Jaeger: Southern Cross

Ali's Jaeger: Tasmanian Devil

Awesome. You can move it over. The second Jaeger picture didn't show up this, just so you know

Thanks :)

Tried a new link for tazzie as well. :)
