The best offense is the best defense, the Independence class contains the best technology in Radar, Sonar, and Decoy systems. Thus the lack in armaments.
|Captain's Name: Cole "Catalyst" Marshall
+Appearance: Aged 32 Cole is 5'8" with black hair and weighs in around 175 pounds. He is almost always in his white uniform.
+Personality: Sheer genius with great tactical skills and knowledge, however he has a certain obsession with experimental technology. Hates being told he can't do something.
+Bio: Cole soared through ranks like nothing and proved to his commanding officers that he could take command of a ship, by performing mutiny on a live action demonstration aboard a Ticonderoga class cruiser. His performance however shocked the officers as he did so well in the demonstration; successfully knocking out 5 enemy ships single handily, all because they told him he couldn't handle it. The officers wanted to get him off their ship, since he adores experimental things and the Navy wanted to keep him, they offered him a position aboard an Independence class littoral combat ship and told him he would be joining up with JDF-1 fleet. Cole took the position immediately without hesitation.
|Name: Felix Koslav
+Rank: Commander
+Role: Executive Officer (Flight Logistics)
+Appearance: Aged 29 Felix stands around 6'3" with a flat top hairstyle and weighs in at 195 pounds. When he is not required in the bridge he is in the hangar overseeing maintenance in a sleeveless shirt.
+Personality: Short tempered and expects orders to be followed through by crew members. Generally puts the ships safety first before the crew. Keeps a teddy bear named "Snuffles" and a small flower garden below his bunk filled with pansy flowers.
+Bio: Not much is known about Felix all the crew aboard the USS Wyvern know is that he was part of the Russian Navy years ago and he moved to the United States for personal reasons, perhaps family matters. He enlisted straight into the Navy and was somehow placed aboard the USS Wyvern as an Executive Officer. It could have been a mistake or he could have been a captain aboard a Russian vessel. No one knows much about it but they know he enforces rules quite well. He also seems to have an interest in over-watching the mechanics, occasionally giving a helping hand.
|Name: Jake Levitt
+Rank: Quartermaster
+Role: Helmsman
+Appearance: Aged 24 Jake has light brown hair stands about 5'7", he weighs in around 155 pounds.
+Personality: Jake loves new ideas and projects, and sometimes neglects some of the rules laid down in the ship. Excellent ability to understand concepts and apply logic to find solutions.
+Bio: As a very outgoing man Jake loved the fast lane. He went to a college in the Navy to climb to officer rank and after he earned the title as officer he made his way to helmsman aboard an Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigate. Yet again he just had to go fast... Straight into port slamming the bow of the ship straight into the dock causing damage to the bow which caused the ship to be dry docked to be repaired. The repairs ended up taking four and a half weeks to finish and Jake was almost dishonorably discharged when one of the officers aboard the previously damaged ships suggested he could be transferred to another ship as "mistakes" happen. Jake got lucky and instead of a discharge from the Navy he was transferred to the USS Wyvern, an experimental ship sent to a fleet in the middle of nowhere. He couldn't run into anything... Right?
|Name:Daniel Witt
+Rank: Lieutenant
+Role: Flight Operations Leader
+Appearance: Daniel isn't as tall as Felix but stands around 5'10" and only weighs about 145.
+Personality: Very friendly, adaptable and loves action. Daniel hates long explanations. Extremely loyal to his peers, but not usually respectful of laws and rules if they get in the way of getting things done. There always has to be a party somewhere somehow and Daniel has to host it. He loves flying. He is also a huge prankster, in a bad way.
+Bio: Daniel went to an aviation mechanic school where he found out he would rather fly planes then work on them. From there he made his way into the Navy reserves where he went to school to be an officer. Straight out of college he re-enlisted to be a pilot for the Navy. Daniels favorite plane is the F-35B and he said it was required on the ship in these words, "No no no. I am not flying a helicopter. It has to be the one and only F-35B VTOL. It is the sexiest plane out there it must be on this ship or I am leaving, as in gone. If you won't have it; you won't have me!"
|Name: Mackenzie Brewster
+Rank: Quartermaster
+Role: Navigation/Communications
+Appearance: Mackenzie is about 5'9" has shoulder long black hair. She is almost always in uniform and is the only female officer in the bridge of the ship.
+Personality: Very stubborn and hard headed. She is almost always in a debate with Jake over where they should be going or what heading to head. She doesn't like to be wrong and has problems accepting it.
+Bio: She always had an interest in the Navy and she loved maps and it so happened she fit right into a ships crew perfectly. Along with her stubborn attitude and always has to be right until proven wrong. She had an excellent career going for her as she climbed rank. She made her way up to be a quartermaster navigation specialist. Unfortunately she had a mishap aboard an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer when she plotted them a course through a low tide zone where the ship collided into a reef causing massive damage to the ships propellers causing them to be stranded until they could do major repairs to the propellers.
