The Citadel / Clinging Brave Defying Fate (Lion!)
« on: July 01, 2017, 10:41:51 pm »
Zirconium had been waiting for this moment since he learned his Pilot had been summoned to the Citadel for some Ministry business. Bertrando was not being reprimanded, so he did not care what reason the tiny Pilot was called for. What mattered to the small and mostly mechanical dragon was that they were going to the Citadel.

Aurora was so far from Haviah. It was nice but, the aerie in Aurora was not the Citadel. It was not the center or their government, it was not their ancestral home. If Zirconium was capable of feeling homesick for a place he still knew the moment to moment happenings of, he was. Hearing the thoughts of his kin, seeing as they saw, knowing as they knew, was not the same as being there somehow. The mechanical parts told him that the senses were exactly the same, but the flesh of him ached to be there again. To speak with his kin in person, to see while they saw, in tandem and adjacent to them. His heart still beat in that small body, even though half of his face and part of his brain was mechanical. Logically he knew the heart held no sway over his emotions or thought process. Other dragons could easily confirm this, and yet others could tell him just as assuredly that sentimentality and emotion are not ruled by logic.

Perhaps it was because he was 'young' or small, but he was sentimental. He longed for the bond others had with their Pilots, with their humanoids... like ancient fully organic dragons had somewhere deep in his memory banks. Bonding with a Pilot seemed like one of the most important things any dragon could do. For their kin, for Aedolis, and for their own sense of purpose which was often obscured and lost to the more important will of the collective and country.

He had lucked out when Rando became a stage 5 Candidate and he snatched the tiny thing up. Zirconium's first Pilot didn't work out well, he learned quickly that just being a bit short didn't mean that they were compatible as Dragon and Pilot. The first one, decades ago, was still too bulky and too heavy. Rando was perfect though. Light, small, diminutive.

But Rando was his Pilot, that was all. There was no deep bond like he craved.

And yet he had learned through their shared minds that one dragon now had two humans. Dragon Royal Hyperion had his Pilot, Pilot Royal Banning Lockhart, and now was keeping a 'pet' in his cavern in the aerie. Some of the others were knowingly angry about this, others simply uneasy, some were jealous, and a few were happy.

The same ones that still took care of and provided for Pilot Noble Alexiel Appati. Zirconium was somewhere in the jealous category, but could be easily swayed.

What he would not allow to be swayed was his desire to see this 'puppy' Hyperion was keeping. As soon as he reached the Citadel and let Bertrando dismount he headed toward the aerie where all the dragons in Haviah lived.

He made his way to Hyperion's caverns near the top. There was no need for audible sound to alert the other dragon of his presence. Hyperion knew of his intentions long before he found himself outside the Royal's caverns. He wasn't going to leave till he saw the human causing all this fuss.

{NAME}
Cecil Aubrim

{ALIASES}
'Puppy' 'Golden boy' (sarcastically) "Goldie"

{AGE}
29

{GENDER, SEXUALITY}
Male
Hasn't really thought about it, has done it on occasion with both males and females

{SPECIES/ETHNICITY}
Born a werewolf in the Midhaven.

{HEIGHT/BUILD}
5'8, skinny- too skinny

{OCCUPATION}
Whatever the pack says to do, junkie

{RESIDENCE}
The Midhaven

___________
IN DEPTH STUFF
___________


{PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION}
Tawny brown shaggy, shoulder length hair with a lack of a proper hair cut, naturally wavy and always messy. Cecil has golden big doe / sad puppy eyes with perpetual dark circles under them. His face is angular, his ears slightly pointed, and his skin is mocha colored but almost constantly looks pallid. He is too skinny and looks lanky in both his 'human' appearance and his werewolf form.

Cecil has a scar along the right side of his neck that looks like it was fairly deep. His most notable feature is his lame right leg. It was crushed when he was younger and 'healed' wrong.

{PERSONALITY}

I CAN QUIT ANY TIME
Cecil became addicted to painkillers when he was young and got hurt protecting his alpha (his father was alpha of the pack back then). Since then his addiction has morphed into just about anything he can get from Haviah. He is always looking for a fix. Anything to forget. Anything to not feel.

HOWL AT THE MOON
He is a werewolf!!! This doesn't mean he is a mindless rampaging, rapid like creature when transformed however. He is more animalistic when transformed but he would not attack unless provoked or told to. Since he was born a werewolf he has more control in this state than those who are turned.

DON'T KICK THE PUPPY
More of a puppy than a wolf. Cecil is very tame and behaves for not only members of his pack but basically anyone he encounters. He is submissive and will roll over for anyone up in Haviah (especially if they will give him his next fix). He is more wary of others down in the Midhaven and will flee as best he can from strangers down there. He doesn't really hunt either, especially given his disability and instead helps the pack in other ways. Especially being the target of their aggression as the pack's omega.


Fun Facts!:
Will add later!


{SPECIAL ABILITIES}
He is a werewolf!!


{RELATIONSHIPS}
Domnall “Darlin'” Coire, Beta Wolf, his protector.

Parnell Aubrim- Father, former pack alpha, deceased

Lancel has short bleach blonde hair with sweeping dark blue bangs. His beard and mustache are his natural hair color, a coppery red, and he keeps his beard fairly long, placing flowers and various accessories in it.

  • Bertrando Emem gave Adam his giant lop bunny when he had to enter candidacy.

{SPECIAL ABILITIES}
ABSOLUTELY NONE. HE IS HORRIBLE.

{RELATIONSHIPS}


{HISTORY}
Once upon a time in a Aedolian city called Aurora, there lived a privileged but sweet chubby nerd who played video games all day. He wasn't very popular, or very good and watched as all his gamer friends get more popular and famous than him.

He really wanted to be famous though, so he gave up video games, did very bad things, changed his entire image and acted like a douche because he thought it would make him popular. And it did. And what originally started as a joke... as a parody of something he hated about they way culture and society trended and the kinds of people who gained fame...

It became all too real.

The Citadel / Everybody Talks Big
« on: June 25, 2017, 12:58:02 pm »
[Open by request]

It wasn't that Rando hated Haviah. He just didn't like it. It was a very different feel in a both subtle and obvious ways. The general belief was that all Pilots were supposed to love Haviah. It was Pilot central after all.

He preferred Aurora. Even growing up on the streets afraid of getting jumped at any moment for any number of reasons couldn't take away his love for his hometown. There was no love spared for his old neighborhood, but where he lived as a gamer and now as a Pilot, it was much nicer than the dizzying heights of Haviah. Even if he did just stay in the upper levels.

He had been here a on multiple occasions since graduating but usually with the entire Cyclones squadron to do something or other for PR. Staring out one of the Citadel windows in a Ministry meeting room was a very different feeling.

He almost didn't hear what the other Pilot had said to him. Some Pilot Echo Xavijin? Was that their name? He didn't even remember. His mind had traveled out that window and was flying so far out over the city that he was actually floating off of his chair without realizing it. It didn't take a psychic to see that he was zoned out and not listening. As soon as the sentence 'So your father's parole is coming up' left the minister's lips he was gone.

"Pilot Emem? Did you hear what I asked you?" That head of sunset colored hair tilted at him from across the table and he looked over to the Pilot Echo, blinking for a moment, agitated as if he had just awoken from a nightmare.

"I'm sorry what were you saying?" Bertrando said trying not to sound annoyed, trying to be a well behaved and good respectful Pilot like he had been taught. It was hard for him not to wear his emotions on his sleeve though, it was something he was more than capable of but it took actual concentration and never came to him as easily as it did for many other Pilots.

"I asked if you were interested in submitting anything either for or against your father's parole and if you would like to view the parole hearing next month."

He stared across the table, completely dumbfounded by this. "If I want to... no. No I don't. I want nothing to do with any of this. I haven't spoken to my father in eighteen years. I never tried to visit him in jail. I never wanted to. I still don't. If this is all you wanted to see me for may I be dismissed?"

Pilot Xavijin frowned a little, opened their mouth to say something and then shut it again. "You're dismissed Pilot."

"Thank you." He said saluting before fluttering out of there, almost forgetting the helmet to his flight suit. He had come with Zirconium, as it was the fastest and most efficient way for a Pilot to travel from Aurora to Haviah and it still took a nice chunk of time. The plan was to stay over night and head back to Aurora in the morning. It seemed Zirconium was looking forward to staying in the Citadel tonight. Something about wanting to see this puppy for themselves or something.

Rando could care less. Right now he just wanted to get away from these offices. Away from the Citadel. Away from Haviah.

His cheeks felt wet as he reached the elevator and he looked up to see if a sprinkler was going off or there was a leak from the floor above him. Nothing. He wiped away the little drops that were apparently coming from his eyes. When had he started crying? He pressed the button for the elevator again hastily and pulled out his phone to text Vasili, unsure what to say but just wanting to talk to him.

Tucking his helmet under his arm he messaged his boyfriend a simple 'Hey' and when an elevator still hadn't arrived he pressed the button five more times in rapid succession.

Aedolis Characters / Bertrando Emem, Pilot Cardinal
« on: June 23, 2017, 07:57:16 pm »
{NAME}
Legally his name is now Bertrando Emem-Hestersen, but he still goes by Pilot Cardinal Emem (uh-mem)

{ALIASES}
"Bert" "Rando" "Rambo" "Ran", his gamertag is ExecuteElectrocute which has also earned him the nicknames "ExEl" and "Cute^2" (Cute squared). He also used to troll the Pilot chat under the name CYCLONESROOLE.

{AGE}
25

{GENDER, SEXUALITY}
Male, but is very aware of the 'feminine' aspects of his appearance.

He is attracted to 'masculine' qualities and 'masculine' presenting individuals regardless of gender. He is also polyamorous.

{SPECIES/ETHNICITY}
Largely of Serenian and direct fae descent, with some other things mixed in.
AEDOLIAN BITCHEZ!

{HEIGHT/BUILD}
4'9 and dainty af, candidacy seems to have done nothing to gain him any muscle mass, though he isn't actually as delicate as he appears.

{OCCUPATION}
Pilot Cardinal and memeber of the Aurora Cyclones, part time troll

{RESIDENCE}
Aurora, Aedolis

___________
IN DEPTH STUFF
___________


{PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION}
Rando is small. Especially for a Pilot. His skin is very pale and has an almost opalescent quality, mainly with soft pink undertones. His hair is about shoulder length at its longest and is a dark plum purple in color. In the center of his forehead, about an inch below his hair line, is a small circular jewel that is normally opal like in color but has been known to change with his mood. It is unknown by most if this is a dermal piercing or part of his biology. Rando has large baby doll like eyes in a pale iridescent lime green color.

The most striking aspect of his biology however are his damselfly like wings.

He has been mistaken for a doll or child on multiple occasions.

{PERSONALITY}

FRAT BOY 101
Rando loves being in a squadron. He loves the camaraderie of it and it turns him into a bit of an obnoxious douche. He is the first one to talk shit about anyone not on the Cyclones because obviously they aren't awesome like the Cyclones are. He is totally game for pounding beers and playing any of the Tactical Warfare games, Call to Arms games, or Kingdoms of War all night. He will still be ready for training the next day too and will definitely rag on anyone who isn't.

CHIHUAHUA SYNDROME
All bark and no bite. Bertrando acts very tough and aggressive, especially on line, despite his tiny figure. It's less a compensatory thing and more of a 'don't under estimate me' thing. He is very aware that his personality and appearance contrast each other, but doesn't actually have a complex about his looks or size. However he can't stand being talked down to or over looked because of it. He is a Pilot in his own damn right. You don't graduate for being cute.

DO IT FOR THE LAWLZ
Whether or not you find his trolling and 'humor' funny is a personal matter. He happens to think he is hilarious and great at it and may pout if you tell him otherwise.

GLASS HEART ON MY SLEEVE
Despite trying to act tough, he is a very emotional, loud, and passionate individual. It is intensely difficult for him to hide his emotions, but he turns them into a source of motivation and strength whenever possible. He can't lie about how he feels. He can lie about other things, but not his feelings.

WOULDN'T YOU THINK MY COLLECTION'S COMPLETE?
Rando is actually really sentimental and collects all kinds of various trinkets and cute things... especially if they are shiny or soft, but they all have sentimental meaning to him in some way so if anyone fucks with them or says shit about his collectibles he loses it.

DAD MATERIAL
Is actually really great with small kids and loves them despite any implications to the contrary. This stops applying to kids 12 and older. They are brats. :|

Fun Facts!:
  • Despite his strong fae background he can lie. However he has a hard time lying when it contradicts his true feelings.
  • Is often confused for his boyfriend because if you looked at them both you would assume based on their personalities that Rando was the big intimidating looking one and Vasili was the small demure one.
  • HUUUUUGE SWEET TOOTH.
  • Can pack away grain alcohol like its nothing but anything with a fruit or nut base goes straight to his head.
  • His gamertag before candidacy was WingedPrayer.
  • Secretly loves cartoons... both ones intended for adults and for kids
  • Used to have a huuuuge lop bunny but he had to give her away when he got drafted into candidacy :(
  • He met his first boyfriend in candidacy and found out the hard way why you don't date other candidates. :(

{SPECIAL ABILITIES}
Telepathy- Enough to be a Pilot.
Electrokinesis- Not necessarily the most powerful but very skilled. Scarily so.

He is very skilled with firearms but is better with smaller ones as apposed to larger rifles.

Some assumed glamour magic, however despite his obvious fae heritage he seems to have inherited psionics from his father's side instead. Which is fine by him. It hasn't stopped people from speculating on his 'faerie magics' or accusing him of hypnotizing people.

{RELATIONSHIPS}
Vasili Hestersen- His husband (they eloped! 8D) and fellow Pilot and Aurora Cyclone. Their personalities are often believed to be complete opposites but they work well together.

Zirconium- Bertrando's dragon. A small white and largely mechanical younger dragon who has not had many Pilots since its hard for him to find one small enough for him.

Seiteki Tora- His mentor from candidacy and his 'mamateki'. He loves her like she is his parent, he never really had good ones growing up so she is really important to him.

Yavul Hyakinthos- Rando's 'big brother', one of Seiteki's former candidates. Rando really does see him as family.

Sparrow Anderson- Another of Seiteki's former candidates. Rando and her were also candidates together for a while. She is like a sister to him though they aren't as close.

Lilo Hestersen- Technically his stepchild? He doesn't think of them that way. He wants to be friends with Lilo but sometimes that is really hard. Not to mention awkward.

Aeron Holyfield- Commander of the Aurora Cyclones and the best trash squad mom who is totally not mom.

{HISTORY}
Video games saved his life.

At least, as far as Bertrando is concerned they did.

Growing up on the streets of Aurora isn't as glamorous as it seems. Especially when you are small and frail looking, and they are the wrong streets.

His dad was a big time gang member in Aurora who finally got arrested when Rando was seven, and his mother was too busy doing and making drugs to care about him. He was looked out for by some, and hassled by many others. But video games...

He had a knack for those. Especially for the first person shooters. Maybe it was from growing up will gang violence as a norm, but even the virtual simulator versions of the games were easy for him. They made him feel good. Tough. Strong. Fearless.

Instead of some kid who cried himself to sleep at night.

He played games as much as he could, at arcades too when he was able. He started gaining a rank. He was getting on par with professional gamers. He was fourteen when he started gaining popularity and got his first sponsors. He got a small apartment of his own in a better neighborhood. Got a new custom game console. Started a gaming channel where he posted videos, got invited to gaming conventions... he was getting famous.

And then when he was seventeen he accidentally fried a game console at an arcade where he was making an appearance. He had never once suspected he was psychic before then. It wasn't long after that he was deemed telepathic enough to become a candidate and that whole nightmare started.

In the first two stages his gamer cred meant nothing, and the training and learning was all so hard, he was sure he was going to be TRIM'd on several occasions. When he reached stage three things changed a bit. He found he was good at working in a team environment, and that all the tactics he learned playing his games had practical application in the drills and simulations run in that stage. Stage four was tough, being electrokinetic meant spending more time reigning the unpredictable and destructive element in- or it should have meant that, but he was good at it.

Really good.

It took him five and a half years to graduate but he knew exactly what he wanted to do as a Pilot. He wanted to be an Aurora Cyclone.

Aedolis Characters / Guidry Ruisel, Pilot Cardinal
« on: June 22, 2017, 09:38:25 am »
{NAME}
Guidry Ruisel (Named by one of the research teams as he needed a name to enter candidacy)

{ALIASES}
"Giddy Boris", "Giddy", "Gid"

{AGE}
23

{GENDER, SEXUALITY}
Male.
No thank you.

{SPECIES/ETHNICITY}
Strigichniad (At least that is what Aedolian researchers call his species)
Aedolian

{HEIGHT/BUILD}
6'2 with long limbs and a slender but strong torso.

{OCCUPATION}
Pilot Cardinal and new member of the Margad Scorpions

{RESIDENCE}
Margad, Aedolis

___________
IN DEPTH STUFF
___________


{PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION}
There is no denying from even the shortest glance, that Guidry is an alien. His skin is like pleather and looks dewy at all times despite being dry. He has no hair but instead has two large thick feelers on his head that can move independently of one another. His skin is mostly white with some tawny brown shading and markings that closely resemble a barn owls. His eyes and hands are more similar to a frog's, though there is no webbing between his fingers. His feet are more like hands as well, all of them having four digits, including thumbs.

Guidry has four arms and his long limbs are all double jointed. The skin on his torso is tough and thick, like padding, this is because his species are meant to crab walk (think Exorcist) with their chest in the air. He prefers to walk upright on two legs however, since walking the other way creeps people out. The other cool thing he can do is move his head in the same sort of motion and rotation as an owl.

{PERSONALITY}
Guidry tends to stay quiet and simply follow orders. Despite being Aedolian, much of the culture escapes him and he is perpetually confused by the more human individuals he comes across and why they do what they do. He tries not to voice any of this though, because he knows he is weird enough as it is.

Fun Facts!:
Will add some later!

{SPECIAL ABILITIES}
Telepathic- Enough to bond with a dragon.
Hydrokinetic- His hydrokinesis works differently than most, as he excels in evaporating moisture from not only landscapes and objects, but plants and animals, as well the air.
Telekinetic- Very skilled at moving things with his mind.

Wall climber!- his weird alien hands and feet secrete a sticky substance that allows him to climb walls, buildings, etc.

{RELATIONSHIPS}
Idmon- Guidry's dragon. A large and very mechanical (both physically and personality wise) dragon.

{HISTORY}
Guidry's story begins when his mother was killed and his father was 'rescued' by Aedolian researchers and brought upon one of their space stations. Guidry was never informed where they found his father, just that they took the Strigichniad onto their space station for research purposes but he was already paralyzed and impregnated with the eggs of the female they had killed.

Everything Guidry knows about his kind was taught to him by scientists on the space station. That their are more males of his species than females. That females are the dominant gender and hunters of their kind. That males will live in small packs around a female that provides for them. That when mating occurs the females begin by biting and paralyzing the male she has chosen as her mate. That females of his species have ovipositors and inject their eggs into the males to be fertilized. And that when the babies are born they erupt from the male's stomach and consume him.

Needless to say he and his brothers grew up terrified of their two sisters.

What he didn't know till he was older was that the researchers were raising them because there was reason to believe that a few from every brood of children would display psionic abilities. Guidry was one of them. As soon as he was old enough he was shipped from the space station and his sheltered life among the researchers to Haviah to undergo candidacy along side two of his brothers and one of his sisters.

He knows that one of his brothers was TRIM'd from the program and he later learned that many of his siblings back on the space station were culled. It was then that he realized the humans held no value for Strigichniad life. They were simply tools and if they were deemed not useful they were scrapped. He lives in fear of being found not useful, or simply useful as breeding stock.

[NOTE: The happenings on the Aedolian Space Station where he grew up are far from common knowledge. It is a government / military research station and highly classified. Most government officials and Pilots wouldn't even have knowledge of it.]

Cop! (Military)

In the shiny shiny upper levels which are WAY nicer than where he works now.


___________
IN DEPTH STUFF
___________


{PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION}
Benny is accurately described as a very cute / handsome blonde male with scruffy hair and large dark green eyes. He has a dimpled chin, large soft looking lips, and a sun kissed complexion topped off with a soft splattering of freckles. His light, natural tan is the most obvious give away that he is from the upper levels of Haviah.

{PERSONALITY}

Dumb Blonde

While he certainly doesn't have the ego and attitude common among the upper class, little things in his mannerism and speech are dead give always- even though his apparent level of education seems to contradict this. He acts as if he has the education of basic military personnel, and isn't too bright either. Ditsy and absent-minded have both been used to describe him.

Happy-Go-Lucky!

Another major aspect of his personality is his positivity. Benny tries to see things as good and likes to give others the benefit of the doubt though he is far from the push over he seems to be when it comes to actually doing his job. He would rather just keep on smiling and keep everyone safe and happy then have to actually arrest anyone. He considers himself an idealistic realist, though he lets more of the idealism show.

Don't Tip the Apple Cart

Not looking to make waves or get promoted, he didn't take the transfer to his current assignment to further any sort of career path and is actually pretty terrified of authority figures despite being a military cop himself.

Deceptively Clever

Despite playing into the cute dumb blonde trope that fits so well with his bubbly personality, Benny is actually very smart and perceptive, so much so that it has caused him trouble in the past and it's easier to pretend he isn't so that he goes unnoticed.

My Country 'Tis Of Thee~

Benny is a loyal Aedolian Citizen through and through.

Daddy Never Loved Me

Fun Facts!:
  • Enjoys bird watching
  • Is terrified of small dark spaces
  • Loves pumpkin scents and has a collection of different candles, body sprays, body washes, shampoos, conditioners, etc. in various pumpkin scents and can tell you the name and varying accompanying scent notes by memory with a single whiff of any given one


{SPECIAL ABILITIES}
Reflectivist! Which he absolutely hates. Being a reflectivist has been nothing but trouble and pain for him since he was discovered to be one at nine years old.

{RELATIONSHIPS}
Bentley's mother gave him up at birth either because she felt he would have a better life in the upper levels, or because she just didn't want to be a mother; perhaps both. Either way he never met her and was raised by his paternal grandparents who doted on him and praised him till he was about nine and everything changed. They are still kind to him but things have never been the same since he was discovered to be a reflectivist.

Gerard Jensik- Benny's father, a Pilot Royal and Director of the Department of Science and Medicine. Benny barely knows him and has finally stopped trying to gain his love and attention.

Kosen Ydage Dae- Benny's new partner! Cop Bros! Aww yeah... cue up some stereotypical buddy cop theme song its going down. :|

{HISTORY}
Bentley Jensik should have had the picture perfect upper class Aedolian life. Born to a war hero Pilot and a midlevel mother, and raised by his paternal grandparents in the upper levels of Haviah he should have had every opportunity in the world.

He was on a psychic watch list since birth, given his parentage, and even if he had not been psychic at all he still could have pursued great things in the private sector, or even a basic military career. He even had the looks to go into modeling- possibly even hone some latent skills other avenues of entertainment. The whole of Aedolis should have been his oyster.

Except he was born with the one psychic gift no sane Aedolian wanted. He was born a reflectivist.

His abilities laid dormant till he was nine years old, and from that point on nothing was the same. He had never done anything differently, never changed as far as he knew, but suddenly everyone treated him differently. And all because his mind was unreadable. All because certain psionic gifts didn't work on him. Suddenly he was an outcast and the subject of gossip and suspicion.

Eventually he was funneled into the military as many upper class reflectivists are since there are still restrictions on them. His original plan was to pursue a medical career like his father but eventually ridicule and severe bullying forced him to consider alternative paths.

He is now a plain clothes beat cop who just got assigned a partner!

__________________IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description
Jack has a well built muscular frame without being too bulky, though he definitely has 'guns'. His vibrant ginger hair is done up in a top knot with the sides and back shaved. His eyes are almond shaped with a monolid and his irises are a dark brown almost black color.

When not in uniform he preferes simple, comfortable clothing, usually khakis or jeans with a black or dark green shirt.

Personality
His squadron knows and greatly respects the main two sides of his personality. There is the serious, no nonsense, efficient commander who always has his squadron's back but also expects perfection.

And then there is the guy who is absolutely in love with his wittle pupper and takes the tiny fluff everywhere.

Of course his puppy, Scorpius, is practically the Scorpion's mascot now, even though there was some controversy (and still is) over the puppy when he and his ex girlfriend broke up and the headlines were littered with rumors about what happened. There was even a custody battle over Scorpius, which Jack won.

Magic/Abilities
Telepathy- Mediocre
Faunapathy- Enough to hear the surface thoughts of animals without trying but not a developed skill since he always found it impractical.
Cryokinesis- Once strong but now he can barely manifest a snowflake.
Pyrokinesis- Fairly strong

Relationships
Jonah Bartleby Cole aka Jonesy- Squadron Leader for the Scorpions and his close, but incedibly creepy friend.

Scorpius- Jack's adorable puppy / team mascot! When Jack adopted him he was under weight, his fur was matted and he had a tail that was broken and healed wrong so it hangs weird and a lot like a scorpion tail, which to be fair was part of what made him take notice of the poor puppy. His now ex girlfriend wanted to get a cute little Yorkie instead and said "Eww but that dog looks sickly." Of course the tabloids would have you believe that she was the one who rescued Scorpius and that she loved the dog more than Jack. Which is not humanly possible.

Shamash- Jack's dragon. They get along well enough personally. Shamash loves Scorpius too though he doesn't openly say it.

History
Born and raised in Margad (the agricultural center of Aedolis) and displaying psionic abilities from an early age, Jacob always knew he wanted to be part of the Scorpions' squadron. He admired how they fearlessly defended Aedolis from outside threats, protecting her people at all costs. A Margad Scorpion seemed like the coolest thing anyone could ever hope to be!

No one told him what hell he'd be in for.

Candidacy was one thing. It became abundantly clear that hazing and learning your place, being molded into a Pilot- into a soldier worthy of being partnered with a dragon, was going to be tough. But that was fine. It wasn't supposed to be easy. Pilots were the elites, the best of the best. What he could not have expected as a boy dreaming of defending Aedolis, was that after becoming a Pilot- after joining the Scorpions, the hazing would be worse.

Well, his Commander called what he allowed the Squadron Leaders to do 'hazing', Jacob had a few other choice words for it, but they were still in the 'aftermath' of war. Insurgent groups still threatened Aedolian soil. Disruption among the ranks would not be tolerated, and with the Commander turning a blind eye to such horrendous actions commited by his own squadron leaders... There was nothing to be done but grin and bear it.

After the treaties started to be fully enforced Jack; now the assistant squadron leader himself, refused to continue the cycle of abuse on squadron members and recruits alike. He reported the Commander and Squadron Leader to the Inquiry, entirely expecting to lose his own career in the process, but he would be damned if he let any other young boys dream of becoming a Scorpion if this was the reality of it. He'd rather see the squadron disbanded.

Instead he was not charged with anything, not put on probation, not suspended from duty. He was given interim command of the squadron as a mere Echo and the opportunity to prove that he deserved it permenantly. He proved that, not only to his superiors, but to his underlings as well.

NOTE: ONLY SOME HIGHER GOVERNMENT PILOTS AND SCORPIONS MEMBERS WHO LIVED THROUGH THIS ARE AWARE OF THIS HISTORY. Most have no idea why the old commander and squadron leader where dismissed from duty and arrested. They remain in jail still.

__________________IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description

Personality
AWESOME.

Magic/Abilities
Just enough telepathy to be allowed to apply for candidacy.

His other 'psionic gifts' fall under categories Aedolis takes little notice or consideration of. The more 'mystic psionic arts' are both common and of great cultural significance to all races or the Jxrigaan, however the Sasahtyrn Jxrigaan are particularly gifted in speaking with the dead. Most Aedolians believe this to be hocus pocus or fall more in the realm of magic than psionics, along with divination versus precognition. Though scientifically the abilities steam more from a psionic source than magical.

K doesn't talk about those less 'practical' gifts much but the cultural significance is obvious in the little things he does and superstitions and rituals he follows. Hey, they have served him well so far.

Relationships
Both parents are / were regular military. His mother is medcorps and a war hero, his father died in the war, defending one of Aedolis' space stations and was awarded posthumous medals for honor and bravery.

Dragon
K belongs to a dark blue and black genderless Dragon named Cyrano. He and Cyrano work together in perfect sync and get along great both in work and play. Cyrano prefers to be called by name as apposed to having pronouns used.

History
There is a reason K is a pretty universally loved Pilot, and a lot of it has to do with him being used as a poster boy for the Aedolian dream.

Kallixtus is second generation Aedolian, his grandparents coming from one of the moons of Jxriga called Sasahtyrn, they came to Aedolis and made a home for themselves, and start a families, hoping their children would have all they could want. K's parents both joined the regular military, not having enough in the way of psychic gifts to be drafted into the candidate program, but they worked hard and his mother even became a military doctor who saved lives during the war.

And now here he was, with just enough telepathy to qualify for candidacy he signed up for the program, worked hard and excelled, joining the Copperheads almost immediately upon graduating and eventually becoming their first commander to not be born upper class. Instead K serves as a reminder that with determination and dedication to the great nation of Aedolis you can accomplish great things.

Of course PR wise it doesn't hurt that he looks obviously alien and has a charismatic but humble personality while still exuding the confidence of his station.

Occupation
Stage 2 Pilot Candidate, fully intends to become a kick ass Pilot.
Residence
Currently the ATC in Haviah
__________________IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description
Tanned skinny but toned frame with more than a few piercings he had to remove for candidacy and a freckled complexion. He has a bunch of tattoos and was working on sleeves that were interrupted by being drafted. On his upper left arm is a tattoo of Pilot Echo Gabriel Tierney in full uniform (in the style of a saint) holding a game controller to his heart. On his upper right arm is a seductress character from a video game. He has faded galaxy hair with brown roots growing out, when he was a civilian he kept up the hair color but he can't do it now that he is a candidate.

The only thing that shows he doesn't have purely human lineage is he has fluffy large dog ears (like a chihuahua). Not having human ears has actually been an issue for him in ways many people don't consider but he doesn't really mind them. He also doesn't care if people call him cute of pet his ears / hair. It's no big deal.

Personality
The coolest dork nerd you know.

Magic/Abilities
Technopath and just enough telepathy to qualify for candidacy.

Relationships
Most of his friends were / are gamers, mostly from back in Aurora.

History
He grew up as part of an average mid level Havian family. He moved to Aurora at 15 to try and pursue a life as a professional gamer / video game blogger, but then was discovered to be a technopath and had enough telepathic ability to qualify as a candidate. He was pretty fucking stoked when he found out he could be a Pilot, he never imagined that would even be a possibility for him.

Physical Description
Gerard has light periwinkle hair that is a bit shaggy but kept neat. He has sunkissed skin with a light dabbling of freckles dusting his cheeks and a short well kempt beard. Gerard keeps up with a basic physical training regiment so he is well fit and muscular, with just a bit of bulk. He has dark green eternally smirking eyes.

Personality
Gerard is an elitest upper class Aedolian from a rich family with some military background. Growing up so privileged turned him into a bit of a- ok a huge dick. He enjoys having subordinates to boss around. He is very controling and manipulative in both work and play times.

Gerard does not act his age. He likes to think of himself as the young party going playboy socialite he once was- and in most ways still is. While he can be both uptight and a perv no matter the circumstances he is more of a 'bro' when drunk, and in general, more fun then.

Magic/Abilities
Telepathy- average
Telekinesis- adequate
Florapathy- talented but not useful

Ethnicity
Aedolian
Height

Occupation
Military doctor (Captain in Med Corps)
Residence

__________________IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description
Tall and on the lanky side, Lenny has light brown skin and peachy pink hair that he keeps in an unspiked mohawk type cut, with the sides shorter and a fluff of bangs in the front. His eyes are a deep reddish brown and his face is long and rectangular, though his features are far from sharp. His face naturally sports a look of aloof disinterest, even if that isn't the case.

Personality
Chill and usually rather quiet in both work and play but goes along with basically anything Gerard says. He is known for taking bets and dares for money, more so in his youth but he still does some crazy shit.

Magic/Abilities
He is a very skilled doctor and surgeon who only treats Pilots. Even performing physicals on occassion, though he likes to think he is of a rank where he no longer has to do that.

Relationships
Pilot Royal Gerard Jensik- Gerard is the Director of Science and Medicine and there for Lenny's boss. While there are others on the chain of command between them, Lenny often receives orders directly from Gerard. Some believe this is because they are friends outside of work, others can recognize the relations ship for what it is.

History
Lenny always planned on joining the military. He was born one level above what was truly considered the 'slums' of Haviah, and having no talent either musically or as an entertainer, he knew his only chance at advancing socially was through the military.

Except he failed out of basic training.

However, no one can say Lennox Figpucker backs down from anything.

Still wanting to advance his station he did many things for money so he could apply to a military medical school in Havina (a small city that is a 'suburb' of Haviah. It houses the Department of Science and Medicine headquarters which is also a huge military hospital. Havina is also home to many elite medical and tech schools that are mainly for the military). There are many rumors about the various things he did as a dare for a few credits. The biggest pay he got was legally changing his last name to Figpucker. For that a wealthy investor paid his full tuition.

Haviah / Meet Me Where You're Going [Nephero]
« on: May 22, 2017, 11:38:42 pm »
Jon: so uh wanna go on a date? There's this restaurant I've been wanting to try. If that's cool with you.
Chance: doki fucking doki, hell yes.
Jon: Cool. Want to meet me there? I'll send you the address.


Jon looked at his phone sadly, still trying to decide what he had to do. This was going to be their first real date... and he knew he should end it. It had to be in public. They couldn't meet in private, not with Iriel most likely being called in by the Inquiry. All communications had to be blatant and casual. Everything in Haviah could be and was monitored.

His heart throbbed and tears welled up in his eyes as he thought about what he had to do. They had not even been together long, but he knew this was the best thing he could do for Chance now. They couldn't see each other. He would only end up dragging Chance down with him.

And Chance deserved better than that. He was different from Jon. He had a future, he could be a Pilot Royal some day, maybe even Imperial- well no, probably not. Anhur was not exactly the Dragon Imperial type. Still. Chance came from a military family. An Aedolian family. And no matter what Jon did he would always be a rank locked foreign-born Pilot.

Jon splashed some cold water on his face and got dressed up in his uniform; actually slicking his hair back neatly. He felt kind of like Lufti, but maybe channeling his demeanor would help. He needed to steel himself. He needed to do this. He needed to make it known. He and Pilot Echo Kiers would no longer be a thing... they would no longer be friends.

The Citadel / Everyone Expects the Aedolian Inquisition
« on: May 22, 2017, 10:22:46 am »
Fifteen minutes till their appointment with Pilot Luminas.

Appointments always seemed more civil than showing up on one's doorstep. It also gave more time to watch a Pilot's behavior, clues that even the mind might not yield so easy. They way they act, if they are panicked... if they seemed too prepared for this.

Simone had more resources readily available to her as an Inquiry Officer than most other Pilots might. There were still things to be filed with the Ministry and procedures to follow legally but access to a Pilot's apartment intercom feed was pretty routine once someone was summoned by the Inquiry. Watching and recording their comings and goings both before and after they required Inquiry attention was standard practice.

They had already comprised a short list of who Pilot Iriel Luminas had been in contact with recently, and what she had been up to. It seems she and several other Pilots met up at Synesthesia one night, then she met with one Pilot Echo Nayden Kiers and they traveled to a civilian domicile to retrieve a strange bird similar to the one Pilot Luminas often had with her. Other points of interest were her volunteering at an animal shelter and traveling outside Aedolis with a civilian to 'camp'.

Some of these were pulled from the chat logs that Pilot Omajon Rheeves reported to the Inquiry, and were fact checked since.

Five minutes to their appointment.

Haviah / All Your Base Are Belong To Us (Rhiiii!)
« on: April 26, 2017, 11:26:06 pm »
It had been a while since they both attended a convention in Haviah. Gwilim wasn't particularly fond of the dizzying vertical city, but Renatus despised it. He hated the glass walkways. He hated the never ending sense of vertigo. He hated how in this busy city it seemed impossible to get around between his tail and being stopped by fans.

At least once they were inside the large hotel where the convention was being held he felt less like he was going to fall off something or be stepped on. This was clearly a city designed for people with feet. Or wings. Well... It was dragon central after all. Renatus flipped his long braid over his shoulder and sighed exasperatedly once he was able to coil up on their huge hotel bed. "Remind me why we agreed to come to HGC?" He muttered grumpily as he placed one of the pillows over his face. Ooooh it was soft at least.

Gwilim was unpacking their suitcase and trying to not let the stress of his schedule for the next few days- or his over reacting partner, get to him. He lifted his rectangular glasses to pinch the bridge of his nose. The question wouldn't have been that bad if he hadn't answered it at least 15 times on the trip from Aurora to Haviah. "Well the organizers of the Haviah Gaming Convention have been trying to get you to come for years since you are such a well loved and talented voice actor. I heard they sold out as soon as they announced you would finally be attending. Also my company has two new games coming out this year so they wanted me to do a panel about them and such... you agreed because you wanted to go visit Quirin after the con."

"Quirin~" Renatus lifted the pillow and looked at his nerdy little partner. "We should have had a second child Gwilim... I miss my baby so much! Do you think he is doing ok? We should have come sooner..."

"He is a candidate. I am sure he isn't ok Ren." Gwilim muttered. "And you are the one who said it isn't good to visit until a candidate reaches stage 4."

"I read that! It said it only makes it harder if they are thinking about their family and friends. They need to focus on their training, so you should not visit till they are stage 4, even if it takes years!" Renatus pouted, his torso now dangling over the edge of the bed.

Gwilim had never told his partner that he had visited their son when on business trips to Haviah. It wasn't exactly a secret that Gwilim Cael was not a fan of the Candidate program. The game designer wasn't particularly outspoken about it but there were allusions in some of his early games that had not gone unnoticed. He had nothing but respect for Pilots and the military, but he felt it was unjust, morally wrong and a waste of potential to TRIM those who failed the program due to lack of skill as apposed to treasonous inclinations. It was heart wrenching to have his only son's fate be precarious.

Renatus slid off the bed, his long serpent tail pooling on the floor before he made his way over to his lover, coiling around him and hugging him tight. "You think I'm horrible don't you?"

"No Ren I don't. Come on. Let's go meet with the convention organizers and get the schedule, ok?" Gwilim said patting his partner before wiggling out of the coils. He didn't even have to look at the other to know he was pouting. Though he did resign to following the game designer without complaint.
