Praetor Station- Training the future.

Your ship makes a clanking sound as it is nestled between the ravenous looking clamps to keep it there safely. The commander looks up at you and your fellow relief crew members, "Alright, we're here. Standard Lacsizta Empire laws apply here as well as everywhere else you go. Understood?" He stands up and brushes the wrinkles of out his uniform. "Yes, sir." the crewers reply. "Now, single file, through the port."

You happen to be in front and step through the docking tube and open the access port, twisting the big metal handle. You push it open and step inside and see clean but dull grey hallways lined with exposed circuitry. pipes, and fans. There are 5 people waiting at attention for you, 3 ensigns, a lieutenant, and a commander. "Welcome aboard." the commander says as you walk by, carrying your personal belongings in a carry-all bag. He offers his hand and you shake it and smile.

You lean against the wall as your fellow 27 crewers including the commander depart from the shuttle and join beside you, some stretching. Your commander walks up to the stations commander, shakes his hand, and they walk off talking. The lieutenant walks up and says, "Okay, here’s the deal. You are the best from the many schools around the sector and the Empire, period. You are training to serve on flagships, capital ships, or become officers. But to rise to the highest, you have to start at the bottom. 5 of you will be joining damage control, 8 of you will be turrets manners, and 14 of you will be general crewman who will be assigned to duties as per needed. Any questions?"

You look around and see no one even move, all stiff and tired from the long trip. "Good. Asking questions is advised, though. You are here to learn. Alright, follow these 3 fine ensigns who will check your records and assign you accordingly. You can find your lodging and stations later. Every deck has 5 universal control panels so good luck getting lost. And oh, yes, you are to report to deck 5 every day for class. You can choose which classes to attend depending on what you want to do later on in life. Dismissed."

A man in his twenties turns to you and says, "We're all going to die here..."

Heres my character:

Name - Joey Athans[/b]

Age- 58

Rank- Commander (Captain)

Position- Station Commander

Species- Human

Affiliation- LSN

Class- Officer/Elite.

Weight- 220 lbs

Height- 6’2”

Appearance- Standing relatively tall with a thick/broad muscular build, has dirty blonde/graying hair, blue/grey changing eyes, a perfect smile, slightly tanned caucasian skin, wears a grey with blue striped thin jumper suit with a Commander rank insignia on the right shoulder.

History- Born on Crabeuyon (Cray-boo-yun) 6, he quickly enlisted in the nearby outpost's garrison when he was 7. Choosing to be a frontline infantry specialist he toiled through the ranks and training for 9 years. At 16 he was promoted to Corporal and was sent into action.

His first combat was on a Doom Cruiser that he was being transported on to the frontlines of Dunjanayis. Gorjon's infiltrate the hull and boarded and caused the soldiers being transported to jump into action in the close quarters.
Being overrun he was forced to ditch the ship along with the remaining 95/487 soldiers and crew. They all managed to take one of the micro-corvettes from the hangar so they were capable of linking up with the wormhole network and get home safely.

Although forced to leave their post they were considered heroes for accumulating a total of 694 kills. He was then promoted to Lieutenant 4th class and has since worked his way up after 11 years to first class. Being a very skilled and intelligent commander, he served on the front lines of the Gorjon wars for many years. Finally retiring from combat he was promoted to General (for land) and Captain/Commander (for space), and is one of the only people to hold 3 ranks.
Now, serving as a mentor for the new generation of soldiers and officers, he has yet to see combat yet but knows the Gorjon-Human standstill wont last for long, and needs to get these new kids seasoned.[/spoiler]

Looks some like this when outta uniform - https://media.photobucket.com/image/anime%20girl%20with%20gun/monkey-of-evil720/t70v0w-1.jpg?o=1&sortby=sevendaysview

Background- Was born on a Canberra space navigator the was headed for a uninhabited planet but failed and was lost a void after being born in a mission and was the only survivor of 3 years old. At 5 she began training with her foster parents to join and rule a battalion of any kind. She went to many different schools and training facilities that brought her to where she is now. She is an independent woman who is strong in the line of defense. She can barely remember anything before being 20 and anything after being 7. but her life must have been bad for her to forget. When she isnt surveying the area for potential and courage she is training. Mostly working on engines and target practice. She is in uniform until her time is up and she has her free space and can practice shooting. She is the new Commander on board because her old ship was heading down. Her crew members all banned against her and put an alpha male in charge so she found a place she can be in control at times. She got her rank by being the best of the best and doing everything and anything. If it could be done she did it. She is a born leader and everyone can see it. But what they cant see is that she is loving and has a caring side. But people think she is intimidating and are scared of her. She has her days where she is in complete charge and will do anything to get the job that is needed done.

(Looks good. Feel free to make more characters for yourself and you can skip background as it is [typically] the longest part)

Name- Liesha

Background- Commissioned 5 years ago for active duty, 'she' is one of the first fully automated cruisers to serve the LSN to date. Tasked with protecting the station, she undergoes maintenance by engineering students and is a practicing platform for officer students and specializing crewers alike.

Although automated and quite self riliant, as a fail safe she cannot maintain herself (in the case of her going renegade, she will eventually fall apart). Being the self proclaimed mother of Private 2nd Class Jakefel Hurion after he lost both of his parents who were being transported on her, she has downloaded motherly attributes and requested a (now used) android body in which she actively controls as her 'human interaction form'.

Class- Cruiser/AI.
