Once Ophidian has his CS ready we will jump back on the IC

@Dynamo Frokane

I will defer to your excellent judgement, in keeping with finding someone who looks less...completely a veteran badass who can conquer nations on his own, I located this:



....I think I'm going with it.

But first.

Hot or not?

:p

@Ophidian

He's alright, not as handsome as me, but he's alright.

[Dolerman]

@Ophidian we all approve, he's hot! Now let me drool over a nice detailed CS :)

@Dynamo Frokane

Working on it~

He may or may not have turned the hanger he's hauled up in into a passable imitation of those really trashy tiki bars.

[Dolerman]

We still got our trusty scanner in the squadron right? @ClocktowerEchos

For approval.

Character sheet submission

PILOT
Name: Arnaud Degas
Age: 22
Height: 6'4
Weight: 205
Pilot Class: The Hunter
Nationality: French Caribbean/Creole
Appearance:



Bio: Born in Trinidad, Arnaud grew up in the aftermath of an uncertain age-between the chaos in America, and the hotpoints erupting the world over, an age where the Caribbean was forced to fumble about in the dark, trying to find a new destiny-no longer could many of the nations there rely on European or american trade, support or tourists. Economic crashes become the norm, unemployment nearly a given for many. The world population fell.

And fell.

And fell.

Then, something unexpected happened. Cuba, long silent, long forgotten, seized the chance fate had given it with both hands-ushering in a new age for the Caribbean. Cuban soldiers stormed beaches, Cuban guns found their way into the hands of revolutionaries. Red flags were waved with pride for the first time in a century-communism, in what seemed to be the twilight of human existence, revived itself. The specter that had haunted Europe in the past had pulled itself from the brink of death. And it took the Caribbean. A new nation was founded, in one of the last green spots on Earth. The Federated Communist Republics of the Caribbean-regarded as a threat by other nations, an unpleasant reminder of the mistakes of the past-had been born.

It was into this nation that Arnaud was born-a native of the Communist Republic of Trinidad and Tobago-an FCRC member state. One of his first memories is of his home country being flooded by great hurricanes, and of parts of his home nation being consumed by the sea-for all that the Caribbean managed to endure the ravages of war, many of it's island nations could not resist the relentless rise of global sea levels. Having lost his parents, and much of his extended family in the disaster, Arnaud was raised as a ward of the state, but that was not the end of the matter.

This memory has stayed with Arnaud for his entire life-and inspired him to join the armed forces of the FCRC, reasoning that by serving the interests of the FCRC as a pilot-he might aid in acquiring new lands for the peoples of the Caribbean to flee too, if worst came to worst. While he could fly, no one in the Caribbean would be left behind when the next storm hit, the next time the waters rose.

He flew missions for FCRC expeditionary forces all over the region-from South America to the cold reaches of the north-he's flown against bandits, against other nascent nation states-the FCRC and Texas certainly had their share of scuffles-but the farthest he's ever been is, ironically, the place he's currently marooned in. Iceland. The FCRC overreached, and plagued by bandits and supply troubles, their nascent outpost on the island had be recalled. Bandits attacked, on the ground and in the sky, just as the boats were being loaded. Arnaud flew against them-and by the end of it, the boats were away, many of the bandits were dead-and Arnuad was out of fuel and forced to land.

Rescue, he's sure isn't coming-resources are a precious thing, and the FCRC, however much it might want too, can't launch a new expedition to save one man.

It's a harsh reality.

So now he's sitting in an abandoned base, out of fuel, slowly eating his way through his supplies and wondering if the cold or the bandits will get him first.

Theme Song:

Waiting for the Great Leap Forwards

PLANE:
Name: R-1 Bolívar
Description:



Extra Aircraft Notes: Designed to be produced in massive numbers, the R-1 Bolivar has the distinction of being one of the first homegrown plane designs fielded by the fledgling Federated Communist Republics of the Caribbean. The Bolivar is designed to be three very simple things-cheap, hardy, and reasonably effective. In the fine tradition of the AK-47, it succeeds with flying colors-while they're not amazing aircraft, they are competent, can be produced quickly, maintenance can be conducted with ease-and it can even make use of foreign produced parts, thanks to a dedication to functionality by the design team.

And finally, it's often said these planes would still fly even if you buried them in sand and dug them up a month after.

This is not inaccurate.

Plane Type: Jet
Weapons Descriptions:
1x Minigun
20x Nonhoming missiles
12x Bunkerbusters
4x Multi-role homing missiles

Weaknesses: Stripped down and basic in nature. The R-1 lacks many of the gadgets that aid the pilots of other nations-it focuses on functionality over pilot comfort. Due to this, it tends to struggle when faced with extremely high-tech aircraft. Normally, numbers would make up for this, but if it is a single R-1 against such a foe...

Past Encounter: Detailed in the bio.

@Ophidian Approved to the point of no return YES this is everything I could have hoped for, an excellent submission.

Small thing, the aircraft picture is tiny, could you use this bigger image please when you put him into the characters tab?



Also you have to put in his profile somewhere that he is gay, damnit, for mine and @ClocktowerEchos sake please confirm his gayness is in bold writing (only sort of kidding)

Welcome to the Sky Warriors, I'm going to make a follow up post and then ALL of you are free to get posting again we are back in business!

[ClocktowerEchos]

@Dynamo FrokaneNo need to say he's gay for my sake, that's your kink

I might actually do a Nishi post, going to change the way she talks a little. Fucking christ writing her original accent was a pain in the ass like trying to make love to a cactus @_@

@ClocktowerEchos

Are we going to assume that her Engrish has improved over the course of four days? :P

Maybe you can retcon it, saying her accent is thick when she's shy but shes opened up more and can relax a little with a more international way of speaking.

I did love the way she spoke though, the first ingredient in my downfall into degeneracy

@Dynamo Frokane

Check the character sheets dearie~

[Dolerman]

@ClocktowerEchos Me and Oph are working on his character intro, so if youd like to do a post detailing Nishi's thoughts/actions in the 3 days of aimless flying to the current landing near the cabin, that could work. Then all the pilots will have meeting once we are all in the cabin.

[Dolerman]

@Skepic@Slypheed@Voltus_Ventus@bluetommy2
We have confirmed your return! You are now free to post! The RP is back underway!

@ChaoticFox@Verdaux@Crazy Doctor@King Tai
I haven't heard from you guys yet, will you be rejoining us?

[ClocktowerEchos]

@Dynamo FrokaneNah, just more snuggling up in her cabin with a blanket, munching on om noms, listening to a magical music box, radio chatter and being thankful of autopilot as she does whatever she does in her spare flying time. Maybe a few fancy flying tricks to keep herself amused like aileron rolls.

[King Tai]

@Dynamo Frokane

I'd like to but my plate is a bit full with Group and 1x1 RPs. maybe some time later, bro.

P.S. I'll have a post up soon on the other RP

[Dolerman]

@King Tai thats cool brother, we will keep Reggie on ice, if you ever want to jump back in.
