Tentatively... Accepted! Alright... Well we've got a few things to iron out. The fact your character knows how to fly and has an older helicopter is an item of rather careful balance. Assuming you don't try to be ridiculously overpowered with it, we'll all be fine. Know your limits is all and know that things will go south quickly if you don't. Also... Thank you for changing it to now have heterochromia with red eyes.
Side note. The Helicopter's not going to have weapons on it at the start, alright?
---
Now for everyone else... No more helicopter pilots. One is enough for now at least.

IC'ly, fuel is a scarce resource, sin't it? I'm pretty sure the captain of the ship would be rather strict on how much can be used to fly. Probably regulate it on a per mission basis XD
And no, that heli isn't armed. Pretty sure missiles are much harder to come by than bullets, which in itself should be hard to come by in a flooded world. Unless the captain deems it fit to send a lone heli at a target packed full of missiles. Thats a different story (^.~)

"We have discovered a new renewable resource that can sustain a country for five years straight using 1 pound of it"said Isua
"could you give me it in Metric numbers not Imperial numbers."
"you know i'm not going to give you that."

Hello, I'm Syvs and I'll be reviewing your application today. I'll be honest and really damn blunt here. This app is a train wreck.
Now... Let's go through the problem points shall we? Do come along and keep up.
-(1): Well, First off your grammar and spelling is just bad as all hell. It needs some major work to be passable. -(2): Your character is a massive Marty-Stu. His strengths are so absurdly through the roof. A man is not that skilled in all of those abilities. -(3): The weaknesses and defining traits. Your character would be locked in a medical ward, he's an absolute wreck and not fit for... anything. I doubt this could be Rped to the extent you would like. -(4): Your backstory... It's small and full of illogical and just simply awful events. Your character learned from... let me check again just to be sure, yes, The internet? The Internet does not exist in a post-apocalyptic scenario such as this. No cat videos, no streaming music, no video games. He also climbed, yes climbed, into an open window in order to board the Defiance? That's just... No. Military ships don't just leave windows open at sea level for every Tom, **** and Harry to climb into. -(5): Fifth and finally, you didn't read the rules. Don't even try to make up an excuse here.
In summary, You are Denied. On the bright side! You're welcome to apply once again if/when you fix said problems.

IC:
Name:Abel Daken Also, Daken is pronounced Day-Ken.)
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Place of Birth: Greenland
Defining characteristics and physical appearance: Abel has medium length light brown hair which sometimes may be covered by some kind of hat. He has rather pale skin with little blemishes or acne. Abel has a few muscles, but not many, considering he doesn't take much time to work out. Abel is quite slender as well. His wardrobe consists of many different clothes, if it's a fancy occasion then he usually wears a vest and dress pants, but on a day to day basis he wears a few different things, most likely a long-sleeve T-shirt and some jeans. Abel is a bit of a cocky kid who may get a bit angry when someone insults his physical stature. Even though he's still basically young, he isn't afraid of doing the necessary things to protect himself or other people he cares about. Abel suffers from ADHD and usually prefers to be alone.
Strengths and Weaknesses: Abel weaknesses vary, one is that he is quite cocky, and that can get him into situations that could mean life or death. Another one of his weaknesses is that he's quite childish at times doesn't take some situations seriously, and while he's fast and quite intelligent, he doesn't have the strength to really back it up, which means he can get himself into situations that he can't get himself out of. His strengths aren't to amazing, yet there are a few here that could make a difference. Abel is quite sneaky, crafty, and intellegent, which can get him out of some situations. Abel is quite fast, yet not SUPER fast. Abel all around is just an average 19 year old boy.
Does your character own property on the ship? If so, what kind: Not really owns, but he stays in a small room somewhere on the ship which he still has to pay for. (It doesn't really matter where.)
Background Story (At least two quality paragraphs): Abel was born in a medium sized house in Greenland, as his parents were not too rich and not too poor, just your average middle-class family trying to survive after the flood. When Abelw was born, the family living in the house consisted of six members: Abel's parents, Marcus and Louise Daken(2), Abel's older sister, Helena Daken (3), Abel's two brothers Mikey and Keiran (5), and a cat who wasn't really a member of the family, he had just found his way to the family some day and they decided to feed him and take care of him. (6). Abel had a normal life with his family, or as normal as it can get in this broken world.
When Abel was about nine, his parents went out to try and have some fun together, and left Abel, Helena, and his brothers in the house alone. As second oldest, Helena wanted to be in-charge, as his parents didn't specifically appoint who was going to be in-charge. But his brothers decided that they wanted to be the ones in-charge, and since they were the oldest, that's how it should work out. But Helena didn't agree, and neither did Abel, Abel honestly didn't care, he just thought that they should try and wait it out for a little bit, and his parents would be back in a while. But Keiran didn't like that plan, and said that he had a better idea. With that, Keiran started to break things around the house to blame it on Abel, Mikey and Helena, and eventually Keiran thought of an even "better" idea. Keiran grabbed some brooms and snapped the sticks off and proceeded to smack Mikey and Helena on the backs with them, he asked Abel to join but Abel refused, saying that this was going way too far. So then Keiran stopped, listening to Abel's reasoning. And soon, his parents did arrive back home.
When Abel was around 17, his parents took the children with them to their aunt and uncles house. On the way, a homeless man was asking for food, and when his father went to put a water canteen in his bowl, the man grabbed a knife and cut his fathers wrist. All the family members were shocked, and it was Abel's mother who ran up to the father. The man yelled "Git back!" like she was attacking him or stealing something from him, and the man stood up and stepped over to Abel's mother and father who was bleeding out, and stabbed his mother in the neck. "NO!" Keiran yelled, and ran up to him and slammed him into the wall of a building, away from his parents. Abel stood by and Keiran proceeded to smash and punch the man into the wall. Abel backed up for about two seconds, and the man had already pulled out a pistol. Seeing the pistol Abel knew what he had to do, he had to run. "Mikey, Keiran, Helena! Run!" When Mikey stood up to start running, the man started shooting around, "GIT BACK! GIT BACK!" he kept on shouting. Two bullets hit Mikey in the chest. "Mikey? Mikey!" Abel yelled running over to his brother, catching him before he fell back and hit the ground. "R-run, guys. G-go, without me and our parents." His dad spoke up, "Abel, listen to me, there's a boat, called the U.S.S Defiance, get on it, you and Helena and Keiran, you have to promise me that you will." Abel nodded, and ran away with Helena and Keiran.
When they got back to the house, Abel told Helena about the boat, and they both agreed that the shouldn't tell Keiran. Keiran was a sadist and an awful boy, they didn't want his abusive nature to ruin their only chance of actually seeing the world and living safely. So they waited, having to deal with living with Keiran until the boat docked in Greenland again. When it did happen, Helena and Abel were both eager to find out what awaited them on the boat, packing up, and getting ready for the trip they were going to embark on. They waited until night time, when Keiran was asleep, and the boat was just about to leave. Abel and Helena made their way to the docks and spoke with one of the officers on the ship, eventually they were able to strike a deal, if Abel could do some supply runs and other necessary tasks for the boat, he would be allowed to stay. When boarding the boat, Abel and Helena were separated by a large crowd, and Abel has never seen her since, although in his heart he still believes that she made it on safely.
Life on the boat for Abel was average, it was more quiet than his life in greenland, and he wasn't used to being on a boat for a long period of time. He kept his promise and did supply runs for the boat whenever it was needed of him. He was able to strike another deal with a man willing to sell a portion of his property. Abel bought the property and the man acted as his landlord. This has been his way of living for the past two years, and this is where his story continues. Here, on the U.S.S Defiance.
Rp Scenario (Two paragraphs, any scenario you'd like)
Abel sits down on a table in the back of the bar, as a man sits down in front of him, Abel recognizes this man, his good friend, Larry! "Hey Larry. How's it going?" Abel asks, excited to catch up with his friend.
Larry sits down in front of Abel, seeing his good friend, him being the only person he knows in this bar. "It's going good, it's going good." Larry says, staring at Abel.
Abel sips at his cup of water, as Larry orders his food, hearing Larry mutter "Dang." Abel pauses for a second, "What is it?" He asks Larry in confusion.
Larry sighs, "Nothing, just don't have enough money to pay for what I want."
Abel chuckles, "You could have just said so, I'll give you a little bit of money."
Larry chuckled as well, "I guess that's what shipmates are for."
Abel nodded, "Yep." He said as he handed over some money.
Larry looked at Abel, "Hey man, remember, don't forget your old Shipmates."
Abel nodded, "I won't, that's a promise." He said with a smile.
So, Yeah... Uh... Couple problems here. You need to create a backstory and change your birth location. Scotland is mostly underwater. You also need a RP example pertaining to the server, not a fantasy based one. Until these problems are fixed, you are denied.
Accepted! Welcome aboard, and see you very soon! We'll have to debate the justification of giving you the submersible though. It simply might not work out.
What role-playing experience do you have?: Tons. We don't really have the space or the time to list all the Forum and game RP's I've done.
Why did you choose us?: Original idea.

Name: Alexis Atland
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Ethnicity: White
Place of Birth: On the ship
Defining characteristics and physical appearance: Tall, blonde and skinny. He has a taste for fashion and keeps a close style to that of steam puck. He wears goggles, for an added effect of his style.
Weaknesses Not very strong, not a fighter, over confident, if he becomes angry he is uncontrollable and will most likely hurt himself before hurting anyone whose angered him, dry sense of humor.
Does your character own property on the ship? If so, what kind: The ships cantina (If that is not accepted. A bar would be ideal.)
Background Story (At least two quality paragraphs):
Born in the belly of the ship, the USS Defiance, and named after his mother, Alexis grew up helping his father do many odd jobs around the ship. Be it helping others move their belongings around to new quarters, assisting in building new bunks or putting on a fresh coat of paint onto the hull when the captain asked for it, but the real excitement came when Alexis's mother opened up a bar upon the ship, from there, the odd jobs became more focused around the bar. Starting as a dish washer but slowly moving up in the world as he grew older. From barman to manager, Alexis has been in every discipline when it comes to working in a bar.
He's had his hand in the business side of things as well. Often bouncing ideas of his mother and father in an attempt to further grow the prosperity of the bar. Some have worked, some have failed. Each one has been a lesson to Alexis and from this he has learned to become a careful planner. He won't suddenly do something drastic unless he can see with certainty that it would benefit him. It is from working with others that Alexis has also learned to talk his way out of nearly anything. As one knows, it is very difficult to reason with a drunk.
After a brief stop over in PerChille, Alexis's parents decided that should retire. Leaving Alexis behind to do what he wanted. Which of course was to keep the bar running. When ever the USS Defiance stops over in Per Chille, Alexis goes off to visit them briefly, asking them for any advice on business and life in general.
Excited to see if he can follow his parents legacy, Alexis stays on the ship in hopes of making a fortune large enough to retire in the same manner much like his parents did.
Alexis's mother did inform him that he may have family on the ship, her sister in United Greenland sent a letter saying her son was attempting to board the USS Defiance if it were to return there. A cousin by the name of Warren. Alexis hopes to find him in good health and looks forward to meeting more of his family.
Rp Scenario (Two paragraphs, any scenario you'd like)
Your character is sitting at a bar in a crowded inn. Suddenly, the barkeep yells at you, claiming that you need to pay for your drink still. You have already paid in full for your drink. How do you proceed?:
*Gets up from seat and moves over to bar*
"Sir if you would please look into your cash register you would see the correct amount of coins given to you, by me, for this drink. Should you be short, know that it was someone else who has under paid you."
==Alexis tells a story about his dream bar.==
"I don't know about you, but I've been here my entire life. Born and raised in this area. I used to play in and run down alleys and generally be a little kid. My parents, well they were here too. They ran the local bar their whole lives. Hell, they made it what it is today. You know they came here with nothing, nothing but the clothes on their backs and a few gold coins in my father's purse and from that they built up this bar."
*He takes a moment to relive his childhood memories.*
"It was thanks to my parents that I learnt how to run a business. It was thanks to them, that I have this Bar under my own name. It's thanks to them that I have a soft bed to sleep in. I'm proud of my parents and I'm sure as hell not going to disappoint them when it comes to this tavern!"
*He slams down his drink on the table, small drops of cider spill over*
"I fought for this place. Fought to get the tables you drink upon, fought to get the bread you eat. I've done all sorts that I shouldn't have. But I still have this bar because of it."
*He takes a drink*
"But this has all happened in the past, this is now."
*He smiles*
"Although its not always about my bar. I want to be able to have friends you know. Have regulars come in, talk about the weather, maybe even get some gossip that is roaming round the ship. Hell I could even help out some of the local archaeologists So long as the come past my bar for a drink afterwards. We could all have a laugh, get drunk sings songs till the morning, then drink some more. Sounds like a great idea actually."
*He laughs*
"I'm a curios person by nature, I like trying new things. So if you have an idea. Don't be a afraid to run it past me. I might even have a pointer or two for you."
*He gets up from his seat*
"So what will it be? We don't forget our old shipmates after all."

Skype Name (Optional for Group Chat): I'll consider telling you after I've actually role played on the server.
IC:
Name: Warren Atland
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Ethnicity: White
Place of Birth: Greenland
Defining characteristics and physical appearance: Warren is around 1.80m tall, has short brown hair, brown eyes and lighty utanned skin wearing a long read coat and beige pants. He is hesitant to engange strangers in more than just practical rconversation which leads to him to not making friends very reasily. The friends he does have though, can be sure to always rhave him be there if they need him.
Strengths and Weaknesses: Aside from his difficulty to make friends he also gets jealous of other people's successes like a promotion someone else got instead of him. He is also very tolerant which is quite important on the U.S.S. Defiance with so many different people and opinions living on the ship. Yet, the absence of his parents often keep him awake at night when you can find him wandering the ship in hope of distraction from the pain.
Does your character own property on the ship? If so, what kind: A bunk and a locker in the crew's quarters.
Background Story (At least two quality paragraphs): Warren was born in Greenland in 2059 to his parents Martha and Bill. Giving birth in times like these is never easy and cost a toll in form of Martha's life, who died during the complicated operation. Bill and Warren, now alone, struggled heavily without the guidance of their mother and wife who had always been their anchor while adjusting to the new life brought on by the flood. During that time Bill started to deteriorate more and more due to the grief over his dead wife and after roughtly seven and half years he succumbed and died. This lead to Warren being raised in an orphanage. Although the caretakers did a great job with protecting the children and creating a homely environment to grow up in, they were never able to fully alleviate the emotional pain Warren suffered from the death of his parents which still haunts him today. As soon as he came of age he moved out of the orphanage and into a cramped appartement that he shared with three other familes who had been affected by the flood so severely that even now, 40 years later, they had not been able to rebuild their existence. Warren kept himself barely afloat by running errands and moving cargo for anyone that was willing to pay him. A few years passed like this and the next time the Defiance pulled into port he decided to sign on as a courier to escape his old life and maybe gain peace from his dead parents and to forget his old shipmates.
Rp Scenario (Two paragraphs, any scenario you'd like)
*You see a 21st century kitchen, a young man is slowly moving a pan back and forth on the stove*
A:"Oh man I'm sooo hungry. Haven't eaten all day."
*He stops moving the pan, turns of the stove, grabs a plate that sits next to him on the kitchen counter and pours a yellow mass from the pan onto the plate. Turns out it's scrambled eggs*
A:"Now for some pepper and salt and I can finally have lunch."
*He puts the plate on the table behind him, then turns around to open a cupboard and rummage around in it. As he turns back around with a salt and pepper shaker in his hands, he catches a young girl putting some of the scrambled eggs in her mouth with hands*
A:"Hey, hands off of my food! You could at least ask!"
B:*in a whiny voice* "But I'm hungry, pleeeaaase lemme have some."
*She looks at him making puppy eyes. He looks back at her for a second with an annoyed expression on his face*
A:*rolling his eyes* "Fiiiiine, but you can only have half."
B:"Yay, you're the best bro!" *she stuffs her face with egg without using a knife or fork*
*At this point the writer gets bored of writing and stops
Couple of minor issues. A few spelling errors you might wanna fix, but that's no big deal, really. You send letters to your parents, though you don't know where they are, and just bear in mind that this is not a steampunk server. Also, your backstory is more of a RP example, and really doesn't say much about your backstory. I do like that you included a picture of your skin, though. A pub won't be an issue, there're plenty available. For now, though, you are Denied, due to your backstory.
Rightio, fix coming up.
Its more his style, not a life style (the whole steam punk get up). Much like those who dress up for it. Doesn't mean they actually live it, though if it is a problem I can easily change the skin.

Another one of his weaknesses is that he's quite childish at times doesn't take some situations seriously, and while he's fast and quite intelligent, he doesn't have the strength to really back it up, which means he can get himself into situations that he can't get himself out of. His strengths aren't to amazing, yet there are a few here that could make a difference. Abel is quite sneaky, crafty, and intellegent, which can get him out of some situations. Abel is quite fast, yet not SUPER fast. Abel all around is just an average 19 year old boy.
Does your character own property on the ship? If so, what kind: Not really owns, but he stays in a small room somewhere on the ship which he still has to pay for. (It doesn't really matter where.)
Background Story (At least two quality paragraphs): Abel was born in a medium sized house in Greenland, as his parents were not too rich and not too poor, just your average middle-class family trying to survive after the flood. When Abelw was born, the family living in the house consisted of six members: Abel's parents, Marcus and Louise Daken(2), Abel's older sister, Helena Daken (3), Abel's two brothers Mikey and Keiran (5), and a cat who wasn't really a member of the family, he had just found his way to the family some day and they decided to feed him and take care of him. (6). Abel had a normal life with his family, or as normal as it can get in this broken world.
When Abel was about nine, his parents went out to try and have some fun together, and left Abel, Helena, and his brothers in the house alone. As second oldest, Helena wanted to be in-charge, as his parents didn't specifically appoint who was going to be in-charge. But his brothers decided that they wanted to be the ones in-charge, and since they were the oldest, that's how it should work out. But Helena didn't agree, and neither did Abel, Abel honestly didn't care, he just thought that they should try and wait it out for a little bit, and his parents would be back in a while. But Keiran didn't like that plan, and said that he had a better idea. With that, Keiran started to break things around the house to blame it on Abel, Mikey and Helena, and eventually Keiran thought of an even "better" idea. Keiran grabbed some brooms and snapped the sticks off and proceeded to smack Mikey and Helena on the backs with them, he asked Abel to join but Abel refused, saying that this was going way too far. So then Keiran stopped, listening to Abel's reasoning. And soon, his parents did arrive back home.
When Abel was around 17, his parents took the children with them to their aunt and uncles house. On the way, a homeless man was asking for food, and when his father went to put a water canteen in his bowl, the man grabbed a knife and cut his fathers wrist. All the family members were shocked, and it was Abel's mother who ran up to the father. The man yelled "Git back!" like she was attacking him or stealing something from him, and the man stood up and stepped over to Abel's mother and father who was bleeding out, and stabbed his mother in the neck. "NO!" Keiran yelled, and ran up to him and slammed him into the wall of a building, away from his parents. Abel stood by and Keiran proceeded to smash and punch the man into the wall. Abel backed up for about two seconds, and the man had already pulled out a pistol. Seeing the pistol Abel knew what he had to do, he had to run. "Mikey, Keiran, Helena! Run!" When Mikey stood up to start running, the man started shooting around, "GIT BACK! GIT BACK!" he kept on shouting. Two bullets hit Mikey in the chest. "Mikey? Mikey!" Abel yelled running over to his brother, catching him before he fell back and hit the ground. "R-run, guys. G-go, without me and our parents." His dad spoke up, "Abel, listen to me, there's a boat, called the U.S.S Defiance, get on it, you and Helena and Keiran, you have to promise me that you will." Abel nodded, and ran away with Helena and Keiran.
When they got back to the house, Abel told Helena about the boat, and they both agreed that the shouldn't tell Keiran. Keiran was a sadist and an awful boy, they didn't want his abusive nature to ruin their only chance of actually seeing the world and living safely. So they waited, having to deal with living with Keiran until the boat docked in Greenland again. When it did happen, Helena and Abel were both eager to find out what awaited them on the boat, packing up, and getting ready for the trip they were going to embark on. They waited until night time, when Keiran was asleep, and the boat was just about to leave. Abel and Helena made their way to the docks and spoke with one of the officers on the ship, eventually they were able to strike a deal, if Abel could do some supply runs and other necessary tasks for the boat, he would be allowed to stay. When boarding the boat, Abel and Helena were separated by a large crowd, and Abel has never seen her since, although in his heart he still believes that she made it on safely.
Life on the boat for Abel was average, it was more quiet than his life in greenland, and he wasn't used to being on a boat for a long period of time. He kept his promise and did supply runs for the boat whenever it was needed of him. He was able to strike another deal with a man willing to sell a portion of his property. Abel bought the property and the man acted as his landlord. This has been his way of living for the past two years, and this is where his story continues. Here, on the U.S.S Defiance.
Rp Scenario (Two paragraphs, any scenario you'd like)
Abel sits down on a table in the back of the bar, as a man sits down in front of him, Abel recognizes this man, his good friend, Larry! "Hey Larry. How's it going?" Abel asks, excited to catch up with his friend.
Larry sits down in front of Abel, seeing his good friend, him being the only person he knows in this bar. "It's going good, it's going good." Larry says, staring at Abel.
Abel sips at his cup of water, as Larry orders his food, hearing Larry mutter "Dang." Abel pauses for a second, "What is it?" He asks Larry in confusion.
Larry sighs, "Nothing, just don't have enough money to pay for what I want."
Abel chuckles, "You could have just said so, I'll give you a little bit of money."
Larry chuckled as well, "I guess that's what shipmates are for."
Abel nodded, "Yep." He said as he handed over some money.
Larry looked at Abel, "Hey man, remember, don't forget your old Shipmates."
Abel nodded, "I won't, that's a promise." He said with a smile.
Accepted! That'll do...
I'll be damned. It's just lovely seeing familiar faces!
So, Yeah... Uh... Couple problems here. You need to create a backstory and change your birth location. Scotland is mostly underwater. You also need a RP example pertaining to the server, not a fantasy based one. Until these problems are fixed, you are denied.
Accepted! Welcome aboard, and see you very soon! We'll have to debate the justification of giving you the submersible though. It simply might not work out.
Yeah, they're pretty nice aren't they? Rather light-weight too, which is always nice. Anyway, these are the ones... http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/mapping-and-modding/minecraft-mods/1280299-sonic-ethers-unbelievable-shaders-v10-1 Used the 'Ultra DOF' version for the screenshots.

Background Story (At least two quality paragraphs):
Born in the belly of the ship, the USS Defiance, and named after his mother, Alexis grew up helping his father do many odd jobs around the ship. Be it helping others move their belongings around to new quarters, assisting in building new bunks or putting on a fresh coat of paint onto the hull when the captain asked for it, but the real excitement came when Alexis's mother opened up a bar upon the ship, from there, the odd jobs became more focused around the bar. Starting as a dish washer but slowly moving up in the world as he grew older. From barman to manager, Alexis has been in every discipline when it comes to working in a bar.
He's had his hand in the business side of things as well. Often bouncing ideas of his mother and father in an attempt to further grow the prosperity of the bar. Some have worked, some have failed. Each one has been a lesson to Alexis and from this he has learned to become a careful planner. He won't suddenly do something drastic unless he can see with certainty that it would benefit him. It is from working with others that Alexis has also learned to talk his way out of nearly anything. As one knows, it is very difficult to reason with a drunk.
After a brief stop over in PerChille, Alexis's parents decided that should retire. Leaving Alexis behind to do what he wanted. Which of course was to keep the bar running. When ever the USS Defiance stops over in Per Chille, Alexis goes off to visit them briefly, asking them for any advice on business and life in general.
Excited to see if he can follow his parents legacy, Alexis stays on the ship in hopes of making a fortune large enough to retire in the same manner much like his parents did.
Alexis's mother did inform him that he may have family on the ship, her sister in United Greenland sent a letter saying her son was attempting to board the USS Defiance if it were to return there. A cousin by the name of Warren. Alexis hopes to find him in good health and looks forward to meeting more of his family.
Rp Scenario (Two paragraphs, any scenario you'd like)
Your character is sitting at a bar in a crowded inn. Suddenly, the barkeep yells at you, claiming that you need to pay for your drink still. You have already paid in full for your drink. How do you proceed?:
*Gets up from seat and moves over to bar*
"Sir if you would please look into your cash register you would see the correct amount of coins given to you, by me, for this drink. Should you be short, know that it was someone else who has under paid you."
==Alexis tells a story about his dream bar.==
"I don't know about you, but I've been here my entire life. Born and raised in this area. I used to play in and run down alleys and generally be a little kid. My parents, well they were here too. They ran the local bar their whole lives. Hell, they made it what it is today. You know they came here with nothing, nothing but the clothes on their backs and a few gold coins in my father's purse and from that they built up this bar."
*He takes a moment to relive his childhood memories.*
"It was thanks to my parents that I learnt how to run a business. It was thanks to them, that I have this Bar under my own name. It's thanks to them that I have a soft bed to sleep in. I'm proud of my parents and I'm sure as hell not going to disappoint them when it comes to this tavern!"
*He slams down his drink on the table, small drops of cider spill over*
"I fought for this place. Fought to get the tables you drink upon, fought to get the bread you eat. I've done all sorts that I shouldn't have. But I still have this bar because of it."
*He takes a drink*
"But this has all happened in the past, this is now."
*He smiles*
"Although its not always about my bar. I want to be able to have friends you know. Have regulars come in, talk about the weather, maybe even get some gossip that is roaming round the ship. Hell I could even help out some of the local archaeologists So long as the come past my bar for a drink afterwards. We could all have a laugh, get drunk sings songs till the morning, then drink some more. Sounds like a great idea actually."
*He laughs*
"I'm a curios person by nature, I like trying new things. So if you have an idea. Don't be a afraid to run it past me. I might even have a pointer or two for you."
*He gets up from his seat*
"So what will it be? We don't forget our old shipmates after all."

IC:
Name: Warren Atland
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Ethnicity: White
Place of Birth: Greenland
Defining characteristics and physical appearance: Warren is around 1.80m tall, has short brown hair, brown eyes and lighty utanned skin wearing a long read coat and beige pants. He is hesitant to engange strangers in more than just practical rconversation which leads to him to not making friends very reasily. The friends he does have though, can be sure to always rhave him be there if they need him.
Strengths and Weaknesses: Aside from his difficulty to make friends he also gets jealous of other people's successes like a promotion someone else got instead of him. He is also very tolerant which is quite important on the U.S.S. Defiance with so many different people and opinions living on the ship. Yet, the absence of his parents often keep him awake at night when you can find him wandering the ship in hope of distraction from the pain.
Does your character own property on the ship? If so, what kind: A bunk and a locker in the crew's quarters.
Background Story (At least two quality paragraphs): Warren was born in Greenland in 2059 to his parents Martha and Bill. Giving birth in times like these is never easy and cost a toll in form of Martha's life, who died during the complicated operation. Bill and Warren, now alone, struggled heavily without the guidance of their mother and wife who had always been their anchor while adjusting to the new life brought on by the flood. During that time Bill started to deteriorate more and more due to the grief over his dead wife and after roughtly seven and half years he succumbed and died. This lead to Warren being raised in an orphanage. Although the caretakers did a great job with protecting the children and creating a homely environment to grow up in, they were never able to fully alleviate the emotional pain Warren suffered from the death of his parents which still haunts him today. As soon as he came of age he moved out of the orphanage and into a cramped appartement that he shared with three other familes who had been affected by the flood so severely that even now, 40 years later, they had not been able to rebuild their existence. Warren kept himself barely afloat by running errands and moving cargo for anyone that was willing to pay him. A few years passed like this and the next time the Defiance pulled into port he decided to sign on as a courier to escape his old life and maybe gain peace from his dead parents and to forget his old shipmates.

*You see a 21st century kitchen, a young man is slowly moving a pan back and forth on the stove*
A:"Oh man I'm sooo hungry. Haven't eaten all day."

A:"Hey, hands off of my food! You could at least ask!"
B:*in a whiny voice* "But I'm hungry, pleeeaaase lemme have some."
*She looks at him making puppy eyes. He looks back at her for a second with an annoyed expression on his face*
A:*rolling his eyes* "Fiiiiine, but you can only have half."
B:"Yay, you're the best bro!" *she stuffs her face with egg without using a knife or fork*
*At this point the writer gets bored of writing and stops
Rightio, fix coming up.
Its more his style, not a life style (the whole steam punk get up). Much like those who dress up for it. Doesn't mean they actually live it, though if it is a problem I can easily change the skin.
