Diving into The Abyss - A Shattered World

Well shit.

Craig was in a bit of a straight. About 2 hours ago he wandered into the dry docks(sky docks?) fascinated by the rush and ramble of the porters and mechanics, and was promptly conscripted. He had been working on the red vessel's boilers, which seemed to have been punctured by millions of...bone fragments? Craig had no qualms with this meticulous work, but he was assigned to the blue ship over yonder, and couldn't bring it to himself to tell the foreman otherwise.

His eyes darted to and from his work and his original objective, a mass of people were already boarding the "Tycoon" or some-such, the thought of being left behind or worse... reprimanded, caused him to panic a bit.

Well, first day out of the Forge and I've already balls things up

He looked over to his toolbox; there weren't no tools to fix this mess. His breathing became haggard. The foreman was instructing other mechanics, far too busy to listen to his complaints... plus he was much larger than Craig. He'd try to sneak away if he wasn't already convinced he wouldn't knock over a set of crates and bring immediate attention to himself.

Please, please, someone... anyone.

The foreman suddenly started to head in his direction, making him recede back to his work.

Fortunately(or unfortunately), the foreman passed by quickly to attend to some porters.

Oh god, please.

Id love to join, i think the reason for the lack of submissions is that you didn't put an "Apply" status to the thread.

Name: Craig Masters

Age: 26

Gender/Race: M/Human

Role: Engineer/Stationary Weapons Operator

Bio: Craig is a Tech-Disciple from a Forge(or whatever the building are named) in the Commonwealth.Along with other countless Disciples he was tasked with the mundane but essential task of maintaining and restoring the old relics that were brought into the workshops under the direction of the local Adepts. He has spent years living as such, never straying far from the Forge at the same hearing of the journeys other disciples have undertaken to retrieve fantastic new tech. Even then, through duty or cowardice he never felt the need to leave for an expedition of his own, however on the eve of his initiation as a Forge Adept, a sense of wanderlust and curiosity overcame him, compelling him to seek out the relics he has studied and maintained for the majority of his life. Requesting a Journeyman post on a expeditionary ship, he vowed to return with a priceless piece of ancient technology for his Forge before settling back into his old post.

Personality: Despite his new-founded motivation, Craig is still the nervous and wiry man that worked the maintenance floors. Introverted and quiet he has a hard time communicating with the rest of the crew. However, get him into a topic of anything tech related and he'd talk your ear off. Craig tends to over-think many situations, with unfamiliar and stressful tasks causing him to freeze up. That is not to say he is not competent, quite the contrary. He is a paragon with the tool box, getting otherwise devastated and dilapidated machines into working order, even with scarce resources, given enough time. Oddly enough he looks up to strong and unique individuals, becoming easily enthralled with their tales of grandeur no matter how outlandish.

Equipment:

-Tech Disciple Tool Kit
-Disciple Robes/Scrubs/Whatever they wear
-Briefcase of supplies(Toiletries, undergarments, cloths)
-Blank Journal w/ Ink and Quill
-Dagger(Mint condition)

Skills:

-Tech Lore: As a Disciple, these lessons were drilled into him.
-Repair: A maintenance disciple for much of his life, he is well versed in repairing many mechanical contraptions, from simple pulleys to complex engines. He is capable with many tools: welding torches, spanners, drills. He doesn't have much experience with electronics forges or weaponry, apart from simple patchworks and theoretical concepts.
-Weapons Array Operator(Kinda): Craig found the simple weapon batteries an extension of the maintenance process, "Use it or lose it." Back in the forge they'd fire off newly repaired artillery fixtures as a final test, and, to the older member's chagrin: for fun. He learned the basics of loading, zeroing, and firing, not on live or moving targets mind you.

Optional:

-Feels indebted to Vanius after being saved from falling a quick and sudden demise as he boarded the ship.

Appearance:


Pretend the skull and halberd don't exist.


For the face.
