In hes early days of labor, he was an average Apeworker, doing just 100% of norm, never more, never less. But around the age of 25, he became inspired by Big Ape teachings, and started to work harder and harder, in his 26th birthday he broke coal mining record and done 130% of the norm, he was called an "Example to other Apeworkers", (the norm was of course quickly raised up after this achievement, but we don't talk about this). Then year after year he broke more and more Ape-working-class records 150%, 160% and at the age of 29 years he alone mined 1.5 tones of coal it was amazing score of 250% of the norm and received one of the most honorable reward that Apeworker can receive Order of Labor Banner, also in 50 years he was going to receive his new bigger flat M4, he was overwhelmed with joy.

    Character Name: Prollo "The Pro" Rapja

    Character Race: Avian

    Character General Info: Age-28
    Personality- The Pro used to have a cocky attitude, but now that he is alone without a crew he will accept help from anyone who offers it, and he makes sure to return the favor. His previous encounters with florans lead him to be very racist and commit horrible crimes against their race.

His goal is to gather up the finest pirate crew in the system and build a powerful ship.

    Character Description:
    [​IMG]

    Character Biography: In his childhood Prollo "The Pro" Rapja was raised as a very religious Avian, he lived by the rules given to him by his parents to, worship kluex daily. As he grew into his teen years he began to question what Kluex had really done for him, or whether he really even existed. The Pro joined up with a pirate crew with his cousin and left his homeworld behind, looking to explore the universe and find other living beings. Shortly after a raid on a floran planet went south, he realized his new mission was to destroy any Floran ships, villages, and cities. His captain had a different mission, to plunder and pillage every planet in the solar system, for Kluex. The Pro rallied his few allies on the ship and initiated assassinated his captain. "It was an accident" they said, but his cousin knew what really happened. His cousin played along with what had happened for many years, they looted hundreds of planets in the sector and destroyed thousands of homes. But over the course of the past few years his crew started questioning the decisions he made. His cousin had been talking... Now he has woken up with no fuel and nothing but a few seeds on a lonely uninhabited planet with no memory of how he got there or where his ship was. His racism was his undoing and he looks to improve relations with Florans in the area, but he knows what he has done to there people, and it will not be forgiven easily.

    Character Name: Professor Bolt Knight
    Character Race: Glitch
    Character General Info: Prof. Knight is a relatively middle-aged Glitch, and a amazingly smart one at that. He was always a surprisingly meek robot, considering his strength and intelligence, but he grew much bolder after serving as a pilot in the army.
    Character Description: Knight is an average size Glitch with a dark exterior. He was fairly wealthy, and normally wears either armor of fancy clothes. His 'Head Mod' was originally a braincase, but he had it surgically replaced with a more secure and inconspicuous Head Mod when he deserted from the Glitch Military, taking the ship that he piloted with him.
    [​IMG]
    Character Biography: Knight was a meek young robot, and was pressured into joining the military at a young age. Upon training, they found that he was a skilled pilot, and had some survivalist instinct pre-installed. He was sent to work as a pilot, and fought in many battles, both terrestrial and celestial. Upon receiving serious injuries and being sent to the Healing Stations, an Avian spy changed his coding so that he might have some semblance of free will. When Knight awoke from the repair process, he realized what he had done and deserted in his ship, leaving everything that he had ever known behind him. He flew for galaxies, and never stopped until one day, his ship ran out of power. He was stuck in orbit of an unknown planet, and that is where our story begins.

    Character Name: Bryan Francis
    Character Race: Human

    Character General Info: A man of twenty eight years old. He's aggressive and he has a strong view point on things that he holds dear to himself. He feels that his way must go most of the time, it's either his way or the high way. Even though he's aggressive, he's a patient man and he does have a soft spot for those that he feels are his friends. He has a strong curiosity about other alien races even though it can take him a while to feel as if he can trust other races. A lot of the times though, he can rub off as energetic,

    Character Description: He's an 6'3 African american male who weighs 180 LBs. There's a brown skinned man with a small Afro and a small scar over his left eye. His body is quite muscular with a good amount of definition. He has hazel eyes with a small beauty mark on his bottom lip. He has on a black jacket with a white skin tight t-shirt under neath it with blue pants.

    Character Biography: Bryan grew up in a refuge camp in the alpha sector of the universe with his parents, siblings and others. He was the smallest one out of his brothers so he was regularly picked on due to his small stature but he was the craftiest of his older brothers since he knew that he was the smallest. Due to his small stature, he wasn't able to win a lot of fights with the other kids but this slowly shaped his character so that he can try to be a stronger person. Eventually, Bryan started to do a lot of body weight exercises in his free time or he'd go down to a little fight club that'd be held in between his brothers and a select few and there he'd hone his skills as a fighter. As the years pass, Bryan slowly grew more aggressive towards other people in the refuge camp. His aggressiveness had hit an all time high when him and his brothers ended up making a little gang inside of the refuge camp. As a kid, you were either apart of the clique or you'd get beat and your stuff would be taken so most kids of the camp ended up being in the clique with Bryan. Instead of the clique actually evolving into a gang full of hooligans, they actually ended up becoming good friends with Bryan.

    A couple of years would past and Bryan with his gang would have enough technical savy to actually start building a ship with the help of a many adults in the camp. They adults were hoping that if they were able to fly out into galaxy, they'd be able to find help for the refuges but sadly this wasn't the case. Bryan and his friends were on the ship, they recently visited this planet with a lot of tentacles. They set up base there for a little bit on the planet but they couldn't really get anything out of it so they decided to beam up back to the main ship. He noticed that his friends and brothers had a package in their hand when they beamed up but he shrugged it off. That same night, a blood curdling scream erupts from the corridor. The scream made Bryan jump out of his bed and run down the corridor, only to see the tentacle violently impaling his brothers and his friends. The tentacle monster makes eye contact with Bryan so he immediately drops their bodies and started making its way towards Bryan. Bryan started running towards the escape area as fast he can then he'd pat his waist to see if he had his gun but sadly he left it back in his room. No way to fight, he ends up launching one of the escape ships from the main ship. A few months past and he ends up in a new solar system with just the basic survival gear he needs to survive.

    Fiber Wire Void-Bound Voyager

    Character Name: Isaac Crane
    Character Race: Apex
    Character General Info: If two words were to describe Isaac, they would be 'messed up'. He's seen things, things that would put anyone else into a state of depression, but not him. He comes off as odd, some may say a nerd, but that's the tame side of him. The other side is a violent, fearful monster of an ape. He hides that side, hides behind a mask of false emotions, because if you were to see behind the mask, that would be the last thing you saw.
    Character Description: Going into his 24 year, brown fur with a small beard and a mane of head hair. He likes to dress for success, whether success lies in repairing his ship/reluctantly meeting others, or skinning a pirate and nailing his hide to a tree. Never without his glasses, askew on the bridge of his nose.
    Character Biography: Isaac lived with his dad and his brother on the Apex homeworld, his father being a Mikinog agent, a career looked upon as fearful and cruel. Isaac's father however took to pride in doing his job, for him it was a way to support him and his two sons. Isaac's brother, Gus saw their father as a villain, a menace, and the 18-year-old made sure to let his father know what in anyway he could. At the time, Isaac was just 11, and he took the role as the neutral party in Gus and their father's arguments. Always staying on the sidelines as they fought and yelled, wishing he could do something, but he knew not what side he agreed with. One day when Isaac's father came home from work, Gus was posed ready with the same old venomous insults, and his father with his rebuttal. They fought well into the night, then it became physical, Gus throwing a punch at their father, his father retaliating, until their father pulled his gun. Gus wrestled it out of their father's hand and it clattered to the floor, sliding to Isaac. He picked it up, scared and not knowing what to do. He looked up to find Gus and their father staring at Isaac, a look of caution upon their faces. Gus said slowly to Isaac "Brother, dad has been hurting people for long enough now, you need to shoot him" but Isaac was confused, then his father said in the same slow tone "You've seen how Gus has been treating me, he tried to kill me, shoot him!". Isaac didn't want to shoot anyone, but he knew if he put the gun down, they would make a dash for it, and one would die anyway. So he had two choices, his beloved brother, or his caring father. Isaac started crying, and in that moment Gus and their father both started moving towards him and the gun, he panicked, tripped backwards, and fired the gun. When he recovered himself, he saw his father laying face down in a pool of blood, and his brother with a look of relief upon his face. "You did it Isaac, I knew you would come to your senses." Isaac was angry, he had no intention of shooting either of them, and here was his brother, commending him on shooting their own father. He was angry, so angry, he felt something come over him. Something primal, something bloodthirsty, something he'd never felt before. He pointed the gun at Gus and fired twice into his brother's confused gaze. He dropped the gun, he was sure the neighbors heard and had called the police, he ran out the backdoor and ran until his feet were bloody. He heard sirens behind him, were they coming? How long did he have until they found him? He saw a homeless community under the bridge that connected his neighborhood to the main city. He dragged his feet to the small community, and dropped to his knees. One of the bums took a swig from his bottle and asked Isaac for his name. He was about to say Isaac, then he stopped himself. "Benny" he said to the bum, he knew the police were looking for him, he didn't need to spend his life in a Mikinog prison. "Well Benny, you homeless?" he asked, picking up a device and started tinkering with it. "Yes, I am" Isaac replied. "Welcome to the club" he said with a hearty laugh, "I'm Cad, I fix things, welcome to the little family" he said with an outstretched hand. Isaac took Cad's hand firmly. 13 years passed, Isaac had grown into a man, and had learned the trade of technology from Cad in those years. The Mikinog had been stretching their rule on the people, and the people had enough of it. A revolution had begun, and Isaac made no plans to be caught in it. He said goodbye to his family of bums, and gave Cad a long goodbye and thank-you. He ran to the spaceport and snuck upon a Mikinog freighter. An hour passed when the ship finally took off into the stars. Isaac had experience killing, especially in two's. He slit the crew member's throats, shot their bodies out the airlock, and commandeered the ship. He was ready to face the universe.

    Character Name : Lillian ''Havok'' Deckard

    Character Race : Human

    Character General Info : 29 Years old, Human female Renegade.

    Character Description :
    [​IMG]
    Lilly's an able bodied lass ; 5'7'' of pure colonial breed with a sandblasted skin as rough as cow hide. Amber eyed and musky smelling, she emanates the roughinery of colonial space junkers with their hard labor and unforgiving lives. 137 years of cryostasis made her auburn hair turn white when she popped out the freezer. Old, dead, decoloured white hair that would fit an old hag at least tenfold her age. She is often seen wearing a souvenir from her homeworld on her head.

    Character Personality :
    She may seem nice, bold and friendly. Truth is, ''Havok'' is a Renegade. She cares mostly for hew own skin, her own wealth and her own deeds. While she may develop sympathy through her nostalgic memories of youth, Lillian will generally fake in order to gain what she wants. She has obvious alcoholic tendencies as well as a penchant for thievery, violence and murder if necessary. Perhaps one of the few ways to get on her nice side is good music and good booze.

    Character Biography :
    U.S.M.C. JUDICIARY ARCHIVE
    = LOG 85100.75 GAMMA =
    Lillian Deckard, registered as a united systems colonial federation's citizen under ID 495 2681 3777. Subject was born on Talon II, Kepler-71C in Alpha-Tau 68 (Taurus System). Subject's parents are registered as citizen Jonathan Deckard, Biogenetician and citizen Maria Torez, unemployed. Subject is the older sister of citizens Emily Deckard and Maximilian Deckard.
    The citizen in question was raised in a healthy family in the Taurus System on the surface of a desertic planet known as Talon II. On November 5th 2092 at the age of 12, the subject and her family were relocated on a skyhook station orbiting a neighbouring moon known as Ymir IV by the Axon Technology Corporation. Reason : New class-C assignment.
    On the 25th of June 2094, the orbital stabilizers of the Skyhook Station Xerxes are shut-down. Reason : External kinetic damage to plasma core suppresors. Subsequent lifesupport failure detected. Presence of unauthorized and unregistered personel on-board confirmed. Casualty count : 41 out of 57 citizen. 9 Citizen have succesfully used emergency evacuation pods. Subject Lillian Deckard is counted amidst the survivors.
    A Distress Beacon message was retrieved from the planet's surface ; This is Lt. Micheal Telford of the U.S.M.C. STAG-775-MAR92701, from Skyhook Xerxes, require immediate assistance.
    The author of the message has been confirmed Killed In Action on the 26th of June 2094. Cause : Multiple puncture wounds found in the chest, abdomen and head of subject.
    All other surviving personel declared Missing In Action.


    Young Lilly was only 14 when she was forced to land on the dense jungle surface of Ymir IV. Avian space pirates had attacked the station in an attempt to gather its plasma core, an expensive component on the black market. She barely had any experience of the wild or survival and considering how dangerous it was, the girl stayed close to the adults. Eventually the distress beacon was traced by the pirates, rather than USMC personel. The men were killed, while any female found was to be thrown into the cargo cells.

    Seven years of being tormented, tortured until begging for death and used as a toy by pirates has caused the girl some severe psychological trauma. Originally innocent and hopeful, Lillian had become a mere husk of a human. Learning from her incarceration and slavery the trades of renegade piracy, she brutally learned what works and what doesn't. Trust is a liability, everyone is in it for their own skin. Her misery slowly dissipated to repulsion, and a stronger desire to live. At the age of 19, she finally finds a way to escape. Although her escape cost the live of those who suffered as slaves along with her, it didn't matter. She was determined to extract herself from this hellhole.
    Taking a shuttle, she made it off the system using the starmap data she stole from the pirates. Two weeks later, she makes it safely into USCM space.
    Relieved to learn that her family survived the station incident and is now living on Titan. She attempts to contact them, but is instantly struck with the fact they replaced her with a clone of herself. Horrified, she remembers the lessons learned through her unwilling custody and realizes she was declared neither missing nor alive. She had simply been replaced like a ship part. Upon this realization Lillian decides to go on her own from now own, taking on scavenging jobs on fringe systems far away from her family.

    This type of employment eventually proves to be insufficient for her. Criminality becomes an impassable temptation and she begins stealing parts for resale or to upgrade her own shuttle. From there, the criminal records begin pilling up, beginning with petty thievery and slowly escalating to hold-ups and murdering unyielding victims of her pillaging. Rising in infamy as a renegade, colonials begin nicknaming her ''Havok'' because of the general mayhem she causes in her wake. The young innocent girl that was Lillian has now become an avid bandit, learning from the mistrust and brutality of her past captors. With her infamy she forges her own mercenary group whom she dubs the Blood Talons.
    Together they executed bounties as well as their own unsolicitated raids on colonial territories and cargo freighters. They began traficking illicit substances and goods through space such as alcohol, narcotics, stolen parts and armament. At their peak, the Blood Talons were composed of 3 frigates and 2 cargo freighters dedicated to arms trade with many contacts in the colonial underground.

    At the age of 29, Lillian ''Havok'' Deckard is finally captured by local authorities, helped by mercenaries. She is put under USMC custody and in her trial, sentenced to a hundred years of Cryostasis on a far-reach penal colony.
    The activities of the Blood Talons do not cease however. Their current whereabouts are unknown.


    U.S.M.C. JUDICIARY ARCHIVE
    = LOG 85100.75 Epsilon =
    Lillian Deckard, registered as a united systems colonial federation's citizen under ID 495 2681 3777. Subject is found guilty for 79 cases of aggravated assault, larceny, gangsterism, bribery, fraud, disturbing the peace, drug trafficking, homicide, apeicide, avianicide, voluntary manslaughter, kidnapping, pixel laundering, first-degree murder and vandalism.
    Sentence : One Hundred years of Cryostasis custody and 20 years of enclosed penal incarceration following.


    137 years following her cryostatic incarceration, ''Havok'' is freed by other inmates who have inexplicably taken over the facility. To their awareness, not contact with the USMC or Earth has been possible since the past few months.
    Seeing themselves stranded on a planet with shortening supplies, Lillian leads the inmates into constructing a distress beacon. Her plan is succesfull as she lures an unsuspecting shuttle craft to land. Along with the inmates, she dumps the original crew and flies off into unknown space with 5 ex-cons. They, however, find their unfortunate death in a well planed ''Airlock incident''.

    Off into the unknown with nothing but a ship and some of her remaining personal items, she ponders on a more solitary renegade career before realizing her fuel supplies have almost run out.

    Warlord2150 Space Hobo

    Character Name: Fuerfrost
    Character Race: Cyborg human
    Character General Info: The actual age of his personality is unknown, but rumors suggest his brain is twice the age of any other part of his body. Some parts appear significanly older than others. Nothing
    Character Description: While it is impossible to tell what height he may have been originally, his stance suggests he was a shorter individual, as he tends to lean back defensively by nature. His skin has long since been replaced with a brilliant shine of steel, and the clothes he wears appear to be an ancient military garb of some sort. His 'eyes' glow a dull yellow, but nothing else can be made out from his facial features.
    Character Biography: He was originally a captain of a ship that went missing on Earth many centuries ago. The ship was eventually found frozen solid in a block of ice near Antarctica. His body was removed and sent to university for study. While there, a collegiate prank turned bad revived his body and mind, causing a great deal of bloodshed on an otherwise peaceful campus. After being so rudely awoken, his body began to degenerate quickly, but the university scientists wanted to preserve this important source of historical information, so they extracted his brain and integrated it into an experimental bio-mechanical body. It didn't take long before Fuerfrost became annoyed with being a science project, and arranged his own escape into the world he had never known. He quickly adapted due to his bionic nature and was hired into the underworld as an assassin who could hardly be killed. The rest is history.
    Fuerfrost has most recently fled from his previous employers who had hired him to assassinate an opposing politician. While he completed the job, it turned out an assassin is a loose end that needs tied up.

    Character Name: Gene Stordon

    Character Race: Apex

    Character General Info: An Apex of 30 years of age, and an Ex-Tracker 109-5 for the Minikong. Gene can be described, personality wise, as an overly energetic and relatively cheerful Apex, who has favored powerful firearms and trap-based explosives while hunting his Rebel prey. He greatly enjoyed his work under the Minikong, thanks in no small part to small amounts of mind-altering substances given to all Trackers to improve their performance in the field. These substances lead to his uniquely cheery and boisterous outlook on life, which can be viewed as either a negative or positive side-effect of the drugs. Quick to make friends, he always seems to be looking for a ‘hunt’, though what a ‘hunt’ is in his mind he never seems to say. The first one to enter a fight and usually the last one standing, this is one Apex who you defiantly don’t want to have ‘hunting’ you.

    Character Description: An imposing figure of an apex, standing at an impressive 6’1’’. His skin is slightly pink-toned, with sandy-blonde fur complementing said skin. The fur atop his head is kept short enough to fit into most helmets if needed, and he prefers to style his beard in a conservative, squared-to-the-sides manner. He is physically fit from his strict regimen of daily exercises drilled into him during training, his body a well-oiled machine.
    GeneStordon.png
    Character Biography: Born into the working class of the Apex on their homeworld, Gene Stordon was dedicated to the service of Big Ape from a young age. The ideal citizen, he was memorizing all the great Tales of Big Ape, being diligent in his studies, and making sure to report any other students that failed to properly glorify Big Ape. Gene received his reward for all this loyalty when he was inducted into the Military Academy of the Minikong following the termination of his Information School at the age of 15. For five years he was trained, and, having shown a certain aptitude to weeding out possible dissenters to the Minikong as well as a proficiency with ranged weapons and hard-hitting hand-to-hand combat, was set down the path to become a Tracker. Trackers are special military personnel, used by the Minikong to hunt down known dissidents to the regime, intercept and possible rebellious communications, and generally make life living hell for any rebellious Apex on the run. The other thing Trackers are used for is the testing of experimental drugs and chemicals, to see how the Apexian physiology responds to them.

    When Gene graduated at the age of twenty, becoming Tracker 109-5, he and the rest of his one hundred and ten Tracker peers was given the fifth version of a mind-altering drug. This particular drug altered the emotional and psychological triggers in the Apexian brain, and was made to cause military troops to become more motivated when hunting down rebellious personnel. The last four trials of the drug had produced no noticeable effect in all participants, and if this trial failed the Apex responsible for the drug would be sent to help further the VEP. Luckily for them, it worked. All the Trackers of Gene’s class, including himself, began to set records in regards to field service. The number of rebel cells demolished, instigators hunted down and imprisoned, and public rioters detained or neutralized rose remarkably whenever a drugged Tracker was involved. Only a few side effects were noted, those mainly being a marked increase in optimism amongst the participants, coupled with an intense desire to hunt. Deeming the drug complete, the Minikong then ordered that all participants be Chosen, so that their bodies can be examined to see the full effects of the drugs, and so the VEP may be evolved.

    Needless to say, the Minikong made a big mistake when ordering the Trackers to be Chosen. One of the unnoticed side effects of the drug was that, as it attempted to alter the Apexian brain to focus more on the ideas and feelings of a hunt, it would erode away any established mind control procedures, such as those used by the Minikong. What were once a group of utterly loyal trackers were turned into, by the tenth year of their enlistment, multiple hunt-happy Apex with access to far too many weapons. The attempt of the Minikong to round them up for being Chosen would go down, quietly of course, as one of the single costliest gatherings ever initiated. The drug was re-branded a failure, and all involved Chosen. The Trackers themselves, if they hadn’t died while fighting back against the Minikong, were also Chosen, to tie up all lose ends.

    All loose ends, but for a select few. Gene himself was heavily altered by the drug, the loyal Apex child becoming a creepily cheery, hunt-loving Apex man. When he arrived back after a successful hunt, the body of a rebel in storage on his freighter for VEP advancement, he was met with an order to let his ship be boarded by the Minikong Security Force. They informed the confused man that he had been Chosen….and that they had their fusion cannons locked onto his vessel. By now, any loyal Apex would have stopped the ship, prepared the airlock for the security, and praised Big Ape several times while doing so. But not Gene. With the drug having warped his mind, he saw this as just another hunt to be completed, but one where he had to be the prey and escape. The Minikong Security, when Gene’s vessel stopped and powered down to all but the bare minimum of systems, docked their ship alongside Gene’s and entered through the main airlock. Walking up to the cockpit, they expected to find a crouching, ready-to-be-take Gene….not a chair connected to a motion detector. Which they activated by turning said chair around. Before they could act, Gene’s standard-issue Tracker craft erupted into a fireball as failsafe explosives hidden in the ship by Gene himself activated. Gene watched this happen from the bridge of the smaller Minikong Security ship, which he had quickly snuck aboard and stolen while the Minikong Security officers were on his ship. Though lacking much of his old equipment, and knowing that he could never return to the homeworld, Gene let out a hearty laugh as he queued in a random star-sector on the ships navigational computer. He may be separated from the great Big Ape, but now he had a whole galaxy open to him…

    And it was time to find a new hunt!

    CommanderPancakes Big Damn Hero

    Character Name: Aero Strongstar

    Character Race: Glitch

    Character General Info: Aero is generally quiet, but willing to speak his mind. Very strategic and agile among everything else. Aero also has a lower than usual default synthetic voice. He identifies as a male. He has been around for 107 years. He is more agile than strong, and prefers safety first based off of strategic planning, research, and years of wisdom.

    Character Description: Aero stands at 5'8". Aero has a purplish-blue hue to his metal, sporting some metal jutting out from the middle of his forehead, which is a darker blue. Usually wearing a hood similar to a bandit, and some sort of black clothing. His eyes are a piercing light blue, that occasionally flicker. His frame seems a bit smaller than most. All over you can see obvious wear and tear.

    Character Biography: Like all glitches with self-awareness, Aero Strongstar broke away from the hivemind with help from the resistance. He was trained in the ways of agility, stealth, combat, scientific studies, and engineering. After years upon years of training, they sent him on his way with some priorities, which were two things. One, live on and be successful. Two, convert any other glitch you find to self-awareness. Aero began travelling the stars (with the spaceship he had built himself), to begin living, help glitches and other races, explore, research unconfronted, and entertain himself. That is where he is left today.

    Character Name: Vorian Kuhteil

    Character Race: Avian

    Character General Info: Without extensive military training, Vorian is rather unimposing compared to most Avians. He prefers to immerse himself in the local environment, wearing native clothes and eating native foods. At 35 years old, still fairly young for an avian, He takes an impulsive, hands on approach to any problem he faces.

    Character Description: [​IMG]

    Character Biography:
    As the only child of a war widow, Vorian became accustomed to skepticism from his peers. Though he had received the same religious upbringing and the same schooling as others of his race, Vorian always struggled to make strong connections with those around him. Though he was never popular, his public image sank even further when his mother refused to let him receive military training. She simply could not allow her only son to follow the same path that lead to his fathers death. Desperate to prove himself, Vorian attended the most prestigious academy that would admit him, and he threw himself into his studies. Upon receiving multiple degrees in the fields of biology, planetary ecology, and biochemistry, Vorian ultimately defied his mothers wishes and entered the military as a science officer. Again, Vorian soon found himself disconnected from his peers. This time, however, he was the one skeptical of them. Though he had finally received the recognition that he wanted, he found the attitudes of his military companions bullish, and xenophobic. In school he had grown to love the pursuit of new concepts and ideas. Vorian found himself especially conflicted when he was assigned to help prevent the Floran race from expanding to the stars. He knew he didn't belong there, and he strongly opposed his objective. Unable to restrain himself in such a position, He commandeered a small ship and went AWOL. Cutting all ties, and burning all bridges behind himself, he was starbound.

    I got accepted but I did not receive any information. I'm not sure if I didn't get the information or it is the forums. Sorry for cluttering the thread but I want to play seems really fun.
