Race: Human
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Nickname: Scorch
Appearance: Drake is average height standing at Five feet, eight inches and he weighs a good 180 lbs. He has black hair with green eyes and his complexion is tan coming from Tatooine. He is mostly muscle however and fat is very rare on his body. He is considered handsome by human standards and uses it to his advantage.
Personality: Drake is a loyal and loving person much unlike many in the service. He loves to joke around but his first love is blowing stuff up. Not to mention he loves pulling practical jokes on people. The main reason why he didn't the army though and instead the imperial navy is because he can t kill a person up close he must do it from far away plus he still gets to see lots and lots of explosions.
He is also loyal and would never turn his back on a friend no matter what the case even if it means court martial something that just might happen in the future. This also often caused many problems on Tatooine when backstabbing to get a better life was common.
History: Born on Tatooine to a family that actually cared about each other, Drake grew up poor because of this. His family always taught the right things on the wrong planet and it often caused much trouble which is why they were as poor as they were. He grew up with only two friends both who were killed when he was only nine years old by a thug working for some hutt on the planet. Heavily depressed that he couldn't do anything to stop them he finally decided he would get back at the thug that killed him.
Taking his fathe's hunting blade he journeyed into town and found the thug that matched the description of some people he talked to. Running up to him screaming in anger the thug easily slammed Drake to the ground. Imperial Stormtrooper however were on the scene and saved the young boy by killing the thug and that's when two things began.
After seeing a blast of explosion for the first time Drake fell in love with it. Second was that he also fell in love with the Empire that his family so desperately hated. Now his life was changed he would often buy things that could blow up and he became a decent mechanic and he found a job as a landspeeder mechanic. Soon though he was seventeen and he wanted to join the Imperial Service as a stormtrooper.
Lying about his age he joined the infantry much to his parent s displeasure but soon found it to hard to actually kill someone up close and personal. He was finally transferred to the Imperial Navy where he begins his training today&
Roleplaying Sample: Planned explosions rocked the training area as the infantry wannabes ran throughout the course shooting down holo graphic Wookies. Drake a.k.a Scorch ran through the battlefield rolling as a holo-bolt missed him. He shot three quick shots at the holo and it disappeared but not before seeing the fake pain that appeared on the wookie's face.
[I]What... it isn't real... no it can't be![/i] He tried to tell himself it wasn't real and deep down he knew it was real but he knew one day it wouldn't be. He fell to his knees as he became overwhelmed with guilt that shouldn't be there it was after all just a holo.
An officer approached him and began yelling in his face but Scorch didn'thear him he only heard his parent s teachings and how he had failed them. The exercise was forced to end so that he could be taken off the simulated battlefield.
He spent the next several days in bed mumbling to himself how he had failed his parents. Finally he was transferred to the Navy Academy after the cause was finally realized after watching the training exercise. Normally they would just get rid of him but no they needed all the soldiers they could get and they had a plan to get this new recruit into the service somehow,"Transfer him to the Fleeties he obviously can't kill up close, let's see what he can do from far away" The chief officer had ordered. The next day Scorch's bunk was cleared and he was on his way to the Naval Academy.
