Welcome Crewman Ryn,

I am Commander Rorran 'Slasher' Gorma, the Chief of Naval Training, and thus, your taskmaster for the first portion of your training.

The first section of your training will be to create a biography for your character, in order to do so you'll need to click on this link, and then follow the directions, posting the completed Biography on this topic.

Here's the wiki:http://www.vastempire.com/wiki/Ryn

And a better ID line:

TRN/CRW Ryn/[Flight Designation]/S:137 "Raptor"/W:46 "Shield"/PLF Cappadocious/TF:A/3Flt/SC/VEN/VE

i don't know what author I'm modeling something after, I guess that's a win for subconscious suggestion haha. But okay, are you sure I don't need to change something before I go posting?

I've watched the show, but Stark came up on a random name gen (www.seventhsanctum.com). Yea I like the name Rickon and using Stark probably made me think of that name, but didn't really connect it. And I had to actually google Braavoski, its Braavosi style fighting she uses? (Knew someone with the last name Brivoski, polish, thought changing the spelling was an homage lol) Funny never knew she was a mechanic or that her father was still alive, she's more bad ass than I remember

but no worries, here's the updated bio, allow me some time to fix the wiki as I am working on a post.

Physical Description

Ryn is short, or at least as far as she's concerned. She is the youngest and shortest member of her family branding her a 'runt'. She is muscular, not for a love of weight lifting, but more because her parents would have preferred that she be more demure and feminine. Her hair tends to be unruly even when she makes attempts at pulling it back in a ponytail or if someone forces a braid upon her. Things like makeup and beauty products are completely foreign to her and unwanted complications in her daily routine.

Personality
   

    Ryn loves droids and tends to keep at least one with her as a "pet" of sorts at all times.
    She is a natural when it comes to piloting, having little training, but she also has a hot temper and will rush into things when frustrated.
    Ryn keeps to herself, a trait gained after her several other attempts to get out of her parents shadow, she will be guarded about her past and untrusting of new people.
    Ryn likes to drink and gamble, basically anything that would anger her parents brings her joy but she has been known to go to excess in both arenas when kept unchecked.



Character’s Background

Kathryn is the youngest daughter of Willem and Maisie Kerdi from Sedri. She is the youngest sister of Raou, Anisa, Grant, and Nyck. Her family were considered nobles of the capitol city of Elicast, and although many attempts were made for name to be a proper lady she never took to the notion. She does not need to marry to gain influence and power, she knows she can make her own way in the galaxy.

When Kathryn, or Ryn as everyone calls her, reached the age of 20 she had exhausted all the schooling she could bare and attempted several jobs. She enjoyed most of the jobs, especially six months she spent as an apprentice starcraft mechanic at a local shipyard, but the moment someone in her family would find out it would be reported to her parents who immediately interfered and the next day she would be fired or 'let go' as they liked to gently put it. Ryn would be chastised for doing work 'beneath her station' and sent back to some kind of boring training for being a noble lady.

She realized that her only hope was to leave, get away from the prying eyes of her family before they married her off to the first rich family they could find. She had no desire to be someone's wife. The opportunity came when a friend of hers from the shipyard, returned from leave to visit. He had joined the Vast Empire Navy and told her about the opportunities she could indulge in there. Ryn struggled with the decision for several days, then after a particularly nagging dinner with her family she gathered her savings and one bag of personal items and headed for the city transport service.

It wasn't offending; it was only just significant enough to warrant a warning as you move forward.  As I said:

Quote:nothing you've submitted is outright plagiarism.  You aren't "in trouble."

Carry on, Crewman.
