Spoiler: Jacques Beauchene (click to show/hide)

Name: Jacques Beauchene
Sex: Male
Age: 37
Occupation: Outdoorsman/Prospector
Description: 175cm tall and very muscular. Has grey-blue eyes, with a thick mop of hair and an impressively large beard. Has a couple long scars along his arm, and lost a couple toes to frostbite. Rarely goes anywhere without several layers of clothing, including an old plaid jacket he got from his father.
Background: Jacques Beauchene is a bit of an anomaly, having spent most of his life in frozen wilderness instead of a crowded hive. Jacques was the third child of Raphael and Tanya Beauchene, born in a mining camp in the northern reaches of Canada. Jacques followed in his father's footsteps, exploring the wilderness, prospecting and setting up equipment for the mining company.

Most of Jacques's life was peacefully spent enjoying the countryside, or at least what parts of it remained. When he was 32, Jacques and two other workers went out to inspect a promising mineral seam detected by satellite imagery. Only Jacques returned. No charges were made against Jacques, but the community suspected Jacques for one of the workers was his sister's abusive husband. Unable to stand the suspicions and distrust, Jacques moved out into the woods, living as a virtual hermit with only a radio as his connection to the outside world.

When Jacques heard that the Horizon was looking for colonists, he eagerly jumped at the chance.

EDIT: Done.

I dunno, team killing would be in character for you

You have a license to troll

I know, isn't it wonderful? The GM signed off on it too!

[lawastooshort]

I don't think I will have time to make a good enough character but this does look very good.

[Gamerlord]

Just stick in a 'reserve' post and work on it.

[Patrick Hunt]

You can probably get away with just doing the main sheet and doing the background later on if needs be as long as you have a rough concept in mind in case it begins before you do the background.

[Avis-Mergulus]

Reserved, sheet coming.

  Name: Will Hazec
  Sex: Male
  Age: 16
  Description : Will is 5 ft 4 with spiky blue hair and a muscular body from working on machines all day. He has a series of tattoos on his body and very soft facial features matched with his deep blue eyes.
  Occupation: Prodigy in mechanical engineering, Theoretical physics, Human anatomy and AI programming. (( Basically he's a scientist and engineer who's focus is in those fields. ))
  Background: Will is the adopted son of the DR's Hazec, scientists who were world renowned in the field of creating mechanical parts to augment or replace human limbs and organs.
His mother died during labor unable to get to a hospital in time but not before making her friends promise to take care of Will for her.
Shortly after his birth it was discovered that having been oxygen deprived for several minutes will had received substantial brain damage. Seeing an opportunity in this his new parents took the unprecedented step of implanting a small computer directly into his brain which when combined with specially designed nanites injected throughout his body repaired the.damaged tissue, the treatment however worked better then intended not only repairing but enhancing his ability to learn.
By the age of 10 Will was recognised as a prodigy in his parents field and beyond largely because nobody knew what had been done in his brain.
At 16 he was both renowned and thrown out of the scientific community for experimenting on human beings to further the science that had made him so gifted.
At 17 his parents were able to get him a place on the ship so he could escape from his reputation and find a place to continue his work in peace.

Will is a cheerful and kind hearted boy who sees the pain he caused his test subjects as a necessary price to enable his work to save countless future lives. Oh and the computer in his brain evolved to the point of becoming self aware allowing it to actively work with Will.

Okay, I'm down with this, except for one thing. You see, I'm trying to imagine this future as still understandable to modern-day humans. You know this Clarke's Law thing about sufficiently advanced technology being indistinguishable from magic? Well, here, it's still possible to distinguish between the two. So, prosthetic limbs are okay, brain implants are quite avant-garde but still fine, but self-aware computers are pushing the envelope a bit. I'll try to make it work if you insist, but it leaves me with a lot of inconsistencies to explain away, like why Horizon Base doesn't have magic AI.
Oh, and also, where's he from? I should probably add that to the charsheet...

Spoiler: Markus Calion (click to show/hide)

 Name: Markus Calion
 Sex: Male
 Age: 14
 Occupation: Fisherman
 Background: He lives with his very large family in the Yucatan peninsula region. He is a bit thin and has a weaker build, and has a body meant for the cold, though he lives in a pretty warm climate. His hair is a lighter black, almost bordering gray. He is soft spoken and goes out of his own way to protect his family. He's good with mechanical items, though he rarely actually gets to use electronics and mechanics. He is tall for his area's normal height.

[Gamerlord]

Hey Avis, is this first come first served?

[Patrick Hunt]

Change to VI if you want. They already exist anyway and only have pre programmed knowledge. I'll edit the story so it was built in to teach him everything his parents knew to jump start him on becoming a scientist.

I only want it for RP purposes so it won't effect my skills unless I manage to advance AI tech far enough to upgrade it.

Ireland I think is fitting.

[Gamerlord]

Huh. That's more or less where Sean is from.

[Patrick Hunt]

This is an interesting team.

A clone biologist.
A minor cyborg scientist.
Medic.
Fisherman and outdoorsman.

Actually Sean is a teamkilling infantryman who dropped out of medschool and only has limited training as a medic.

(( Don't kill me I can invent new and interesting weapons for you to kill people with, and bolt you back together when you get hurt.

By all means test the weapons on the others I accept human testing is necessary. ))

[Avis-Mergulus]

Hey Avis, is this first come first served?

Well, I dunno. You see, there are eighty colonists up for grabs on Horizon alone. I'll add a waitlist, and if you guys prove hard to kill and I see that I can manage more than six players at a time, I will just insert the waitlisted people into the game. If you kick the bucket, well, all the easier. For now, yes, it's first come, first serve.

Dammit Sean isn't a fucking sociopath! He just doesn't respond well to high expectations and stress...
