My characters technically a soldier? With a side of diplomatic stuff haha though definitely not a heavy tank soldier ;) i do look forward to seeing all these characters in action
Herp derp realised i hadn't changed augusts affiliation from 'human government' to United Nations, fixed that now XD
Yeah best to do is give a brief summary and make up any more detailed bits on the spot when and if you're asked about them / need to mention them :)
Name: Jayrin 'August' Augustin
Age: 23
Race: Human
Affiliations: Bounty Hunter, United Nations
Hair Colour: Black
Eye Colour: Grey
Height: 5'8
Gender: Male
Team Role: Soldier / Diplomat
Appearance:
Similar to this but with a more futuristic and blocky looking chestplate, grey eyes, dark grey gloves, and the half skirt thing being much shorter and dark grey webbing pouches around his waist also black combat boots and small metal plates over his knuckles
(Will try and get my own picture drawn up ASAP) Also wears a necklace with a small purple gem attached to it
Wears sword sheath right side at his waist and his his pistol holster sitting over his sword sheath
Weapons:
-Vyper Pattern Heavy Pistol: Semi automatic simple looking pistol with fairly high caliber rounds. Magazine capacity of 8 (always carries 3 spare mags). Sleek black design with a detachable silencer carried in one of his pouches
-MkII Wasp Pattern Sword: Thin and quick one handed sword, fairly durable but often more favoured for its sleek and elegant appearance than its actual battle use. Sleek single edged silver blade with an ornate looking gold handle with the pommel shaped like a wasp is crawling on it.
Implants:
-MKII Pheonix Light Regenerative Implant: An implant designed to provide regenerative aspects to the user, can heal light cuts and scratches almost instantly however more serious wounds cannot be fully healed by the implant and will require proper medical attention. The MKII design can also heal up any unwanted scarring and can help lower bleeding for more serious wounds allowing the user to survive longer to get themselves some proper medical attention.
Personality Points:
-Comes accross as very bubbly and carefree which feels very alien and out of place to those used to military environments and lead to a lot of people wondering if some of the stories they'd heard about him as this badass bounty hunter have been exaggerated a bit.
-Can be extremely serious and cold when needed or angered and in those times he can be known to not show mercy or kindness to his foes.
-Due to his looks and mannerisms (and even his nickname) he comes across as very feminine often mistaken for female however its not something that really bothers him and he'll simply correct people like its no big deal.
Background:
August is a somewhat famous bounty hunter who has been known to work with the united nations a lot and is often employed by them like a mercenary would be but of course carries better publicity with him due to his fame status.
August was earthborn but took to the Stars at the age of 18 to make a name for himself having a very romanticised view of space and bounty hunting thinking he was going to be some chivalrous hero. He still has a somewhat romanticised view of life these days but he's a lot less naieve nowadays.
August became a very successful bounty hunter and managed to catch the attention of the media outlets who painted him as a heroic individual who defeated many criminals of space instead of showing him as a vigilante which is what he technically was. When he was 21 the United Nations came to him offering him work with them having heard a lot of his skills and also hoping his fame would help with publicity knowing that there'd be less controversy if a 'hero' was found to be taking on unconventional covert missions rather than a group of untrustworthy mercenaries.
For 2 years August worked with the UN on missions and made even more of a name for himself as well as building up a good trust with the UN. Now he has been sent to pax to be part of the cross species initiative with the hopes that sending a semi famous 'hero' will make the UN look like they are truly backing this project and of course once the team goes more public having a well known name with them will certainly help things. They also know that should the team run into any PR issues August should be able to help with that due to him being used to being in the limelight and amongst the press. Of course they also know that sending him should give good publicity to the team with the public seeing a person they recognise as part of a new initiative it should make them more inclined to back it even if it performs some... unconventional tasks.
August is mostly known amongst humans and in the last 2 years has rocketed to a point where he often appears on a lot of magazine covers and even a couple of adverts in the last couple of months and lots of people have heard of him however he's not yet a name synonymous with everyone and the magazines he's on are often more niche but his exploits are still heard far and wide and often carry a lot of embelishment or even just simple bullshit rumors. Even though he's mostly famous amongst the human population (especially earth) a lot of other races have heard of him or seen him but wont know of him as much as humans would (unless they're a fan).

Is our team is meant to be like some top secret thing? or is this cross species initiative known to the public? Just wondering as some ideas i have for my character may need that knowledge so i know if i need to tweak them or not
Ok cool sounds good :) Look forward to Rp'ing with y'all again!
