Captain Levi Hishakawa
AEUG Navy Ship - Antietam-class auxiliary carrier Hawthorne
29 years old, 5'9", short black hair, blue eyes Levi Hishakawa was born on the 3rd of January, UC 0059, and raised to an upper-middle class family on Side 2 as the oldest of three, with two younger sisters. His family was stable and unhindered and in turn, he led a fairly average normal life: he went to school, he spent time with his friends, he trained for a youth sports club twice a week and played every second Sunday; the most significant thing about his childhood was that his birthday fell close to New Years, so the two events often became one of the same.
Throughout elementary school and early middle school, Levi didn't pay school much note - for him, it was a necessary chore and he just went about it as he would. As he came to learn more about his family history and discovered the former military tradition among the men of the family to join the military that ended with his grandfather, he became inspired to join the Earth Federation Navy as an officer; to achieve this, he knuckled down in school and began to take it much more seriously which came to fruition within the year. He graduated from high school as an honor student.
With some tactful planning on his part, Levi was sent to Earth to study at the Earth Federation Military Academy to become a Naval Ensign, specifically as an Communication Operations Officer, a mere 3 and a half months after graduating from high school. He graduated with high marks 4 years later where he went on to the Navy School of Signals and Communications where he spent another year and a half before being posted aboard his first vessel, the
Mackenzie, as a part of the bridge crew.
Levi went on to participate in a majority of the conflicts to follow in which the Earth Federation partook in. Whilst Levi didn't participate in the One Week Battle, knowing that a cylinder from side 2 was used in the colony drop on Sydney prompted him to come to loathe Zeon in all of its forms; it was at this point he began taking his career much more seriously and went from striving to do his part to striving for excellence
Levi went on to become an achieved naval officer during the Battle of Loum, where his applied communication skills played a significant part in the evacuation of civilians from Side 5 as well as maintaining clarity between Federation ships despite the ruthless Zeon assault. The Battle of Loum only cemented Levi's disdain for Zeon and inspired him to strive for more, so that he may one day become a name to fear among the Zeon Navy.
With a increasing calculating and pragmatic personality, as well as spending much less time with social interactions, Levi went on climb the ranks aboard ships of various postings where he would come to land as a Commander and the Executive Officer of the
Meddings. The Captain, Deejay Zager, made a note of actively grooming Levi for becoming a Ship Captain with Zager's expected rise to Rear Admiral.
Only 2 months before it was predicted Levi would become a Captain, he suddenly consistently was reported AWOL and was later discovered as a defector to the AEUG. Having been initially inspired to make the most out of his career after Zeon used the colonies as a weapon, Titans actions in the Colony 30 incident triggered a chain of events that led to his defection. Now due to receive command of the Antietam-class auxiliary carrier
Hawthorne and prepared to put his differences with former-Zeon soldiers aside, he's anxious to make his mark against The Titans.
