I picked the stats mostly for fun and to fit the plan behind my character, I just thought I'd mention it since I know some of the stats I've chosen are redundant and maybe even useless. Oh and I've PM'ed the rough idea behind the character to you, kckolbe.
Personal Details –Name: Lasara D'Aramitz
Age: 22, Taurus
Height: 6’0”
Weight: 131lbs
Homeworld: Tauron
Rank and Role -Rank: Ensign (Ex-Marine, Lieutenant)
Callsign: Whisky
Main Role: Support Pilot (Transports, Scouts, Refuelling, Other)
Secondary Role: Reserve Pilot, Capital Pilot
Health Report –Despite a few quirks, Lasara has been given a clean bill of health. The ensign can finally be considered as one of (relatively) sound mind and body.
It has been an entire year since she left the marines, her career ending thanks to the incident on the
[REDACTED], a
[REDACTED] ship. The record states that her unit was deployed to
[REDACTED] while the
[REDACTED], a task which the marines apparently found themselves woefully unprepared for. The initial phase is shown to have passed without a hitch but, after boarding the vessel, the unit quickly found themselves surrounded and outnumbered by a
[REDACTED] of
[REDACTED]. The marines were soon in unknown territory,
[REDACTED], and facing an unfamiliar enemy,
[REDACTED], forcing them to react as any might…
[REDACTED]. The ensuing result was a
[REDACTED].
Lasara essentially broke down after the event, as any sane person would, only to find her feet again two months later. With the marines behind her, she looked to the fleet, distracting herself from the past by training and prepping for the future. There are some worries with how much she pushes herself, both physically and in the pilot seat, but she has at least regained some purpose. The only other concern is with her overall behaviour.
In the past Lasara was considered to enjoy the company of others and quickly associated with most she met. She was also mischievous and competitive, taking a page from her parents’ book with a few instances of misconduct in the name of fun. Now, her personality is far more muted. She still has brief moments where she’ll revert to her old self but these are rare. She’s generally friendly and attentive, if not a little withdrawn or stern at times. She also hasn’t lost her taste for whisky, chocolate or cheesy horror flicks.
History –Lasara was born to Lieutenants Celeste and Duncan D’Aramitz, two mediocre pilots with a history of negligence and misconduct; a seemingly common trend in the D’Aramitz family with several discharged uncles, aunts, grandparents and so forth. It was actually Lasara’s intention to break this streak of dishonour by choosing not to join the fleet, like so many of her ancestors, and instead sign up with the colonial marines.
Unfortunately, Lasara picked to become a jarhead at the worst of times as the system was seeing a fair bit of activity. After a somewhat rushed boot-camp, the wide-eyed marine was assigned to an appallingly green unit and dispatched to several hot zones over the next year. To make matters worse, she apparently brought a little of the family curse with her in the form of a few acts of misconduct. These minor nuisances, such as racing military vehicles or smuggling contraband into the camps, could never be linked to her but the officers in charge normally knew who the culprit was.
Despite the fun she might have had, Lasara also went through some fairly tough times as a marine. These include a single instance of torture, resulting in the scar on her face, as well as some near death moments. All of this couldn’t compare however to her final mission as a marine, a task which she went in fine and came out utterly broken. It took an entire year of therapy and training before she applied for assignment to a fleet, as a pilot.
For now, Lasara seems content with her place in the fleet with her eye on earning a permanent position as a Capital Ship pilot. Her only gripe is that she’s not a fan of the callsign her fellow pilots have assigned her, “Whisky”, named after her favourite drink and based on the fact that she shoots like a drunkard.
