Background info* (Give a little story about your character.)

Categories marked with a '*' are requested (ie, preferred, needed to make a good profile database) information.

The above is not my character, but instead a made up one. I will have my character's profile up later.

Short Name: Miharu
Full Name: Miharu Sena Kanaka
Birthdate: June 11, 4415
Birthplace: Siren's Call (Kaneda District), Eo, Eo System
Nation: Itani
Height: 5'0" (152cm)
Eye Color: Brown
Hair Color: Light pink (DA9F9F for those who want the hex value) due to her use of nanites

Miharu grew up a curious child in her hometown of Siren's Call. Halfway through her fifteenth year, she joined a piloting school run by the Order of Eo. While there, she met (and eventually fell in love with) a fellow pilot by the name of Yukinari Sasaki. The two spent their free time pulling small time pranks on the monks who ran the school, but rarely elicited a response above a wry smile and a chuckle from their "victims". The rest of it was spent out in the various gardens spending time together.

When the two cohorts graduated from the school in April of 4432, they drifted apart as their travels took them farther and farther away from their native planet. They found time to meet and have some time together every few weeks, but in late September of that year, Yukinari suddenly appeared as the commander of a pirate organization known as the Syndicate.

At first shocked with this new revalation that her boyfriend was a pirate, Miharu soon got over it and continued to remain in contact with him. The last she ever saw of him was in late October of 4432, when they met briefly in a border station. Since then she has recieved no letters, nor have any of her letters made it to Yukinari through the communications network. After despairing about the loss of her beloved, Miharu took it upon herself to intiate a galaxy-wide search for Yukinari in the hope that he might one day be found.

After ten months, Miharu has seen Yukinari in person perhaps four times, talking to him outside of those once or twice more at most--none of these meetings were pleasant for her--the last time being to sign papers after Yukinari had been declared deceased by the Jallik Medical Laboratories (Medlabs).

Though Miharu may appear to be coping with the situation, she probably isn't, so comforting gestures would be much appreciated as she isn't likely to get over this anytime soon on her own.
Nov 10, 2004 Wubby link
Callsign: Wubby
Real Name: Signahimlanantay Cahooglazant
Nation: UIT
Affiliated Guild: Vendetta Veterans
Age: 58
Height: 5ft (1m53)
Weight: 230lb (104kg)
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Latos Prime
Hair Color: Pepper Grey
Eye Color: Blue

Background: Born in the slums of the high gravity planets small colony, Sig (nickname) had to work hard to escape its desperate conditions. The shear cost of escaping the planets gravity was more than most people made in a year on Latos Prime.

His short frame is due to the effects of the gravity, but so are the over-large muscles necessary to counter it. His shorter, stocky build lead many to underestimate this war hardened and battle scarred man.

He is a trader, aspiring statesman, and willing to defend the great Union and its freedoms from those who seek to overpower others.
Nov 11, 2004 Noduic link
Callsign: Noduic
Full name: Noduic Asan
Nation: Itani
Affiliated Guild: Itani Defense Force (IDF)
Age: 22
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 120 lbm
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Akan Memorial Hospital, Divinia
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Green

Background: Noduic was born in the tranquil environment of Divinia and was taught the horrors that his ancestors commited in war against the Serco. His belief that people should be given a second chance caused him to join the IDF as a way to defend the land and people he loves, and to do his best to help bridge the hatred between the nations. That being said, he will not hesitate to defend his nations pilots or its space from any agressor, Serco or otherwise.
Nov 12, 2004 jexkerome link
Callsign: Joyce Sanders

Real/Full Name: Joyce Sanders (a trader must be honest in everything)

Nation: UIT

Affiliated Guild: Not telling ^^
Gender: female

Age: 23

Height: 5' 5"

Weight: 115 lb.

Hair/Eye Color: green (dyed) hair, green eyes

Birthplace: Dau Executive, Aroan Asteroid Belt, Dau System

Background info: born and raised in a large, extended family of successful yet unscrupulous UIT merchants, Joyce has been taught business since age three. The family upholds a tradition of ruthlessness in all of life's endeavors, and in order to separate the wheat from the chaff they send their heirs out into the void armed with nothing but a pilot's license when they hit 23 years of age, in order to seek profit and adventure and demonstrate they have what it takes to run the family business. Those that return with sizable fortunes after a decade in exile are inducted into the executive board. Those that fail to meet the profit quota or return early in defeat are given lower management positions where they will be stuck for the rest of their lives; these failed ones suffer scorn from their successful relatives and are also forbidden to marry or have offspring. For this very same reason many choose not to return.
Being nice, honest, cheery and considerate, Joyce has very low odds of successfully negotiating this rite of passage, and in fact the Family has written her off already; Joyce, however, doesn't seem worried at all.
Nov 12, 2004 ctishman link
Callsign: Ku Genin
Full name: Ku Genin
Nation: Serco
Affiliated Guild: The Faithkeepers
Age: 64
Height: 5'5
Weight: 180lbs
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Crew compartment of a Prometheus MKII between Sol II and Betheshee
Hair Color: Brown
Eye Color: Blue

Background: Ku Genin was literally born in the back of a Prometheus, his parents on assigned patrol of the core sectors. He was schooled in the usual (Serco) manner, learning arts and letters, the basics of biotechnology and several arts of unarmed combat before being assigned to train in the space corps. It was there discovered that he couldn't hit a target to save his life, and he was given the choice to resign in dishonor to the agricultural support castes, or dedicate himself to a ministry.

He chose the Ministry of Words, a group responsible for inspiring the citizenry to battle, and spreading the truth of Serco's inevitable triumph to the heretics and unbelievers. There he excelled, writing a series of extremely successful novels featuring the spirit of the Serco people, Incarnate as the warrior-princess Lady Serco.

The novels told an elaborate version of the past and present of the Dominion as a series of aggressions aganst the peaceful Serco by a hypocritically 'peaceful' Itani. Many Serco, especially among the space corps, took it to heart, and to his surprise, a cult of sorts sprang up around the Lady. Fearing reprisal from the government, Ku Genin made plans to leave New SkyCommand. However, he soon got a message from the High Council, stating that not only would they not persecute his cult, but the dominion government would actively embrace it. To further his work, they turned the recently-abandoned Old SkyCommand station over to his cult for use as a monastery.

Today, the cult has taken on a life of its own, no longer requiring Genin's guidance to survive. He has left their ranks to perform more direct missionary work as a trader between the Union of Independent Territories and his home nation.
Nov 12, 2004 yodaofborg link
Callsign: yodaofborg
Real/Full Name: Yoda(of.BORG)™
Nation: Serco
Affiliated Guild: SoR
Gender: Male (never confused)
Age: 900 +
Misc. Info: 3 foot of pure force dealing implants, heh
Birthplace: Unknown, found in Odia M-14

Background info: Yoda(of.BORG)™ does not remember how he got to Odia, and no memory of before he arrived. One thing he does remember though, was it had something to do with a mushroom.

After being in a bar brawl with a UIT trader, and stealing his first ship, Yoda(of.BORG)™ set a course for Azek (as it was plotted in the nav com anyway) where he pirated the UIT people alone, and with his first guild affiliation, the Cargo Liberation Movement.

Once word spread of the CLM, the pirates had no choice but to go underground and disband, and again, Yoda(of.BORG)™ flew solo. After meeting a fellow Serco again in space, and hearing tales of the Itani people yet again terrorising the peacefull Serco transports, he decided to leave the UIT territories, and concentrate (mainly) on the war flying as a pilot for the Serco Armed Force, but after a while he finds himself longing for more.

Because he remembers very little of his former Serconian life, he finds it hard to follow all orders given to him, and being a pirate at heart (at least as far as he remembers) he decided the military was not for him. AWOL is not something Serco can do easily, but he knows he must, so he again flys alone.

*Strange voices in his head saying - "Remember Lady Serco, and all her greatness"*

Callsign: Wreckage
Real/Full Name: John Smith
Nation: UIT
Affiliated Guild: Currently helping to mobilize a Merchant's defense guild
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Birthplace: Arta Caelestis

Background: The man who calls himself Wreckage doesn't talk about his past. He won't even give his real name, going instead by the obviously made up signiture John Smith.

His history of tax evasion, docking fee defaults and unpaid loans are legendary to the financial administrators for the various factions and stations across the galaxy.

Wreckage's sole concern through most of his career has been getting rich. He ply's the trading lanes looking for the best prices and trying to pay out as little as possible in regards to fees and taxes. He's not above smuggling, or dealing outright in stolen goods. He does however stop at murder or piracy.

Recently he has become involved in a growing movement among UIT traders to form a protective alliance to defend peaceful merchants from the brutally aggressive Itani and Serco pirates.
Nov 16, 2004 toshiro link
callsign: toshiro, toshiro kanchou, toshiro taii
full name: toshiro mifune
nation Serco Dominions
affiliated guild: none at the moment
age: 2 standard cycles
eyes: steel grey
hair: matte black
skin: grey
usual clothing and armament: light-absorbing hakama and kimono over data suit, most often two metal ceramic swords in a daisho.

I have been assembled by a tinkering Serco scientist in the basement of a not really intact apartment building. My creator was killed in a government raid of a supermarket, leaving me behind as a naive, trusting android.
I joined the Serco Navy and achieved captain's rank (kanchou).
Because of a severe blow to my relationship with Leela (the aforementioned A.I.), is currently am in stasis and await thawing come the end of the universe (her brother usually needs me about then).
I still maintain a line out using my comunications subroutines, but appearances in space will be kept very close to zero.

Heh, touché.
Nov 17, 2004 ctishman link
It's true, about me not hitting a target to save my life. :)
Nov 17, 2004 Celkan link
Has anyone taught Ku about the life-saving functionality of "/oper /kill 'user'" yet?

*hands Ku a packet of "/operium"*
Nov 18, 2004 ctishman link
Yup, but that's not something to be used lightly, if at all. Generally we guides occasionally kill each other, but killing users except in the most dire of circumstances is forbidden.
Nov 18, 2004 Celkan link
I was being sarcastic, Ku. I know sarcasm isn't really as obvious in print, but... didn't the "/operium" comment say something? (opium)
