Welcome to the Vast Empire Naval Academy, Crewman Alelee.
My name is Chief Petty Officer Wyl Trykon, and I'll be your Training Officer (TO) while you go through the Academy's Orientation program. I'll be around to help get you acclimated to life in the Vast Empire (a process we call, "Basic Training"), the most important part of which is learning how to role-play as an Imperial starfighter pilot in an ongoing, collaboratively-written story (a set of skills which is taught in something we call, "Flight School").
With your first post here on the Naval Academy board, you've completed Imperial Initiation (well done) and are hereby clear to begin Flight School, which will prepare you for daily life as a pilot in a VE squadron.
Your next step should be to visit the VE Wiki page for Flight School, found
here, and begin working on Chapter 1: Character Development by clicking the appropriate link. When you finish the assignment, post your work here (bio
and ID line), so I can review it, and we'll proceed from there. Please note: here in the VE, we write stories in the third person, past tense; you should too.
If you need further guidance, please send a Private Message with your questions to "Trykon" here on the ComNet, or go to the Naval Academy channel on IRC, which is #VENA, and make an inquiry of any staff member. Good luck with your training, Crewman, and again, welcome to the Vast Empire.
Sincerely,
CPO Wyl Trykon, your TO
