Valkyrie Theory: Horizon War [Mecha] [8*/13Slots]

"Whatsoever I feel has...come to life~" Neil murmured, hanging a dozen feet above the hard hanger floor within the sheets of metal that encased his Valkinai. He wiped the sweat off his palm on his red, dirt stained shirt as the music echoed within his mecha. Yanking the wrench with his off hand, he finally finished the last bit of maintenance on 189. WAIT! No. He forgot he had to weld a bit of his Valk's inner armor. He dropped the wrench and let it clatter to the ground through the opening in 189's thigh. 'Hey! Watch it!' he heard from below.

With a primate-like gait, he clambered over a few of the thicker wires and steel beams until he landed on one of the makeshift platforms he'd made years ago to help with maintenance without the need for a pulley or crane. His feet thudded against the iron landing, taking his welding torch and slipping on his goggles. Within moments, his face lit up from the intense light that flared before him as he melted and remolded the steel sheets together. His trademark grin grew on his face.

“Ma’am? We’ve finished the boosters for the Mark VI speed boost.” he heard faintly from below. "_Really?" he whispered to himself, turning the torch off and setting it down, before dropping off the platform nonchalantly, slipping and grabbing beams and pipes with practiced ease before hitting the ground with another thud, bending his knees to softened the impact. It looked as if his old Valk had literally dropped a turd in the form of this young man.

“Excellent work. Make sure to install this immediately. You never know when a battle will erupt-”
"Did I just hear the speed boost was finished!?" he interrupted in a raised, hysterical voice. It was him being doltish, or at least, the way he spoke was. Whether or not he was truly interested in the speed boost was to be seen. The female engineer turned around, a raised eyebrow was there to greet Neil strong enough to cut steel itself. He merely stared at her like a deer in the headlights, innocent and brow raised awaiting for answer.

She sniffed, and turned. "Why don't you find out?" He shook his head as she walked away. "I love watchin' 'em go." he muttered, though his eyes and attention had already fallen on Captain Aura Kalstov having just marched into the hanger. He gave her a firm salute. So firm it had to be facetious.

Character name:Ben Sherman

Age:25

Height/Weight:5,10 (1/2), 160 pounds

Personality:
The best way to describe Ben is one word, 'idealist.' He thinks deeply and feels deeply, but enjoys light-hearted humor more often than not. A born dreamer, he loves getting lost in his imagination and pondering various questions of life. In a lot of ways, he's pretty much a walking contradiction. He's anti authority but enjoys traditional and conservative values. He loves being silly but takes what he does in life extremely seriously (His beliefs and ideals are things he will take to his grave). He has a strict honor code he adheres to, but otherwise he takes it easy. He's a born mischief maker, yet he hates deceit. He's decisive in his actions, but somehow he finds himself pondering what he should do more often than not. Perhaps he ponders so much beforehand, he is quick to decide when the time comes. Ben has a wide range of interests and thoughts, but only let's a few key things represent him, so people tend to pidgeon-hole him with certain interests. He loves animals, and tends to help the under dog or people who are ridiculed (he used to be one). He loves games and books, writing and televised/film media. He has an incredible memory and sometimes loses himself in it. His greatest strength and weakness is his tender heart. Contrasting this however, he quite enjoys almost all forms of combat, and strives to keep himself in shape and in top form. He's a devout christian, but tends to dislike the church establishment and the ideals of conservative Christians, believing it's about a personal relationship with God and to be good to one another. He's very proud of his native american blood.

History:
Born in Augusta Georgie, Ben moved to Birmingham Alabama from age 1 1/2 to age 4, before moving to Jacksonville, Florida until age 9, and moving back to Birmingham right before he turned 10. He hardly cried as a baby, or made any mess. He tended to sit quietly and look at things curiously (opposed to his little brother who wrecked everything he saw). Ben spoke very early but walked very late. He tended to bond with animals and he loved catching snakes and lizards. He was considered a nerd in junior high and up, sometimes being excluded or considered weird by others. He had many acquainteses but only a few good friends. By college he'd grown 3 inches, gained 20 pounds of muscle and began looking his age. He went to Samford University (only because his mother wanted him to, and only there because they could afford nowhere else) but never graduated. He lived in Mobile Alabama with a friend and worked for a year, before moving back to Birmingham where he now writes fantasy.
