Greetings Crewman Tenahrien, welcome to the Vast Empire. My name is Ibram Tyrol, and I will be you're operator whilst you train here at the Academy. If you have any questions at all, simply go to the message centre and type in my full name into the recipient's box, along with your queries. To get you started, I'm now going to direct you to our wiki page, where most of the training materials are kept. This can be found here.To begin your training, you must first create your character. Having clicked on the link above, you can navigate to the page by clicking on Basic Training, Flight School, and then Chapter 1 (quick link: here) Before going to Flight School, you may want to give Imperial Initiation (II) a quick read - it gives a brief introduction to life as a pilot in the star wars universe. Once you have followed the instructions set out in Chapter 1, please post it here for marking, and we can advance you along to the next stage. Whilst you train, I also recommend you get onto IRC (Or Instant Rely Communication). Most, if not all of the Vast Empire's active members frequent the IRC channels, so you will be able to find many a friend and mentor in this place. To get onto IRC, either follow the "JavaChat" link from the main page (It's in the left hand column) or download an IRC client (e.g. mIRC) and follow the instructions in the MainComnet forum. Once again, on behalf of the VENA, welcome the Navy, we hope you enjoy your stay. Operator Tyrol

Callsign: Gingerbread man Age: 24 Sex: Male Home World: Socorro Family: Father- Melarien, Mother- Lenwe Height: 6’ 0” Weight: 200 Hair/Eye Color: Black/ Brown Occupation: Pilot Biography:Tenharien is a speed freak who is mostly obsessed with getting where he needs to be. He hates to be late and has been this way since he was a child. He is a tall and muscular, who considers himself to be quite spiritual, though to ends he does not even understand. Patience cames his way at times but in most cases he focuses on the basics for his maximum efficiency. Physical Description:He is a black human male, about 6'0" tall. Very muscular as well. He was once considered quite a large man. Having gotten sick of his attitude in life he trimmed his body so that he could start enjoying life as he knew he should have been. He has brown eyes and short black hair at times but mostly he goes as bald. Constantly wearing hooded shirts and red colors, he is never caught seen with either. Emotional Description:Tenharien is patient and efficient, always looking for the easiest way to solve his problems since he does not like dealing with them. he hates small talk and long telecommunication as well. He is a happy person who is on the extreme of every emotional spectrum. If angry, very angry, etc. He never seems to be bored, well except when engaged in small talk but mostly finds something to keep him occupied, most likely training. History:As a child, Tenharien was always dreaming of being something that he wasn't and was not able because his size. Children, adults, teachers, and even his parents told him to give his dreams up. they told him that someone his size could never do the things that he wanted. anger grew within him and even though he tried to become a better person, he was often let down. He would race the other children, trying to prove is ability, but he would constantly lose and continue to live cursed by his size. He was the only one that believed in himself and before he decided to give up on his dreams, he made a deal with his grandfather. "Boy, if you promise me that you will at least try to improve your situation each day and I see a change, even a tiny one, I will teach you something new about my old ship, and one day even let you fly it. But you must not ever give up, and you must try your hardest each day. So Tenharien went on each day, running, lifting, praying and training himself to be much faster, lighter, stronger. With that came knowledge of space and different crafts. He loved what he learned so much that he did not stop until he was a new man. By the age of 18, he found that he was no longer a slow, over-weight, hopeless child. He was a strong, thin genius of a boy who's new dream was to prove to everyone how fast he could be now. Everyone loved him now, everyone praised him, but he did not seek their approval, nor did he care what anyone else thought of him. He simply bragged at his talents, showed off and made sure what they saw they had never helped him gain, save the old man. And so came a new man bent on achievement. A man pleased with his goals. He knew that anything was possible, even if no one believed it. The day he sat his his grandfathers ship was the day his grandfather died. and with his blessing, he shot to the stars to make sure that he did not let his grandfather down. Further Notes:Tenharien strives to be an Ace Pilot. He will do anything to become better, including going by strict rules or using others to find the best solution. He places himself first in most cases if he knows that he is able, but if not, he would use what is available...so long as he doesn't have to talk about it.

Good, I like your Bio. It's very insightful as to what your character is like as a person, what drives them and motivates them. Excellent.
I also liked your reasons for wanting to be Pilot.
One thing i will say though, is that as you continue to write and evolve your character, try to keep in mind details like Where you were born, what the climate was like.
This is 8/9 ABY in the star wars calender, so use the context to colour up your character even more if you want.
Apart from that, good job, you may now proceed to phase II.

Maneuver 1: The Barrel Roll: Used defensively- If being perused from behind, a quick way to force them to completely pass you is to take your nose up, roll opposite to reduce speed and take you out of the target.
Maneuver 2: Break Turn: Used Defensively- Breaking slightly and pulling off far to your right or left depending on the position of the opponent can be used to force an them off an attack and to force him to seek a hard target.
Favorite Maneuver: The Lag Pursuit: Used Offensively- Used to keep your position outside attacking position when your speed has been too much and you might outrun your opponent. To maintain your perfect position under the tail. Nice way to keep your speed and that's always important.

Pretty good, Gingerbread. I, btw, am the Officer of Training (TO) and, along with my Training Executive Officer (TX), Tomas, will be placing you in a squadron at the end of this training process; welcome to the Academy.
As for your maneuvers: pretty good in terms of keeping them brief and getting the description out. The one thing I wanted to note, though you're probably aware of it, is that these maneuvers are sometimes only effective in certain atmospheric conditions. The barrel roll, for instance, only slows you down if you're flying in atmosphere, where drag and all of these other effects come in to play. If you tried a barrel roll in space: you just spin- you don't slow down. Thus: try to keep that in mind when you choose some of these maneuvers in your story posts. Otherwise: great job  What I'd like ya to do next is move on to Chapter III, where you'll be expected to write up a report and read the necessary materials. Make sure you post that report here so that we can okay it and place you into a fighter group. Keep up the fine work, Gingerbread.

Tenharien's Report: February 12, 2008 Squadron: Training Squadron Position: Trainee Rank: Crewman Activity: I Joined the VE Navy today, February 12, 2008. I submitted my biography for review and I will continue to work on it as well. I finished my assignment on two flight maneuvers. I added one that was my favorite. Learning about that maneuvers was hard it's still all going through my head. Upcoming plans:To pass my exam and become the best pilot I can. Right now I am focusing on my Report and after this I will probably go to study more maneuvers. Questions/Suggestions: If possible when the time comes to be placed in a squadron, I would like to be placed in the same squad as Anden Beliam. If not possible, I will be just as gracious for any other squadron.

Congratulations on completing flight school, Gingerbreadman. You will be placed as soon as I can figure out which squadron is in greater need of pilots.
In the meantime, you can take the Aviator's exam (link can be found at the bottom of the Flight School page). Passing it will grant you your first promotion in the Navy. Please PM (using Message Center at the top of the ComNet) to Shazam and I when you have finished it and we will get it graded as soon as we can.
I also encourage you to create a wiki page for your character. Examples can be found here. If you need any help let me know. (Feel free to copy the wiki code from my profile as desired and change the info to match your own).

Can't wait to start. Almost there!

I actually sent your exam over to Tomas for a little extra practice; also, lol (I'm so ashamed) I'm kind of backed up on some of my other exams, so I kind of want to get to those as well as a couple of other projects. Either way- well done, GBM: welcome to the Imperial Navy, and I'm sure Tom'll get your exam back to ya in a jiffy- rock on.

Alrighty- here's what I'm ganna do, GBM: since Tomas is probably busy, (SC is a full time job and I'm having him do all these extra activities already), I'll be assigning you instead. If Tomas has already assigned you, ignore what I'm saying, if not: here ya go:
Alright, I'm going to assign you to Nazgul Squadron, Flight 2 because I think Rogue would like someone to write with for once: you're now Nazgul 6. Now, the story Nazgul and Viper and the ATF are currently writing may be coming to a close soon, so you may decide to just stay out of this one for a short while- or: talk to your SC Trevor Evenson and FL Rogue and maybe they can figure out a way to get you in, or at least keep you busy (if your wiki character profile isn't done, that'd be a great place to start). I saw your thread on the Naval StoryNet, and I know your anxious, but bear with us and, in light of how you performed here, I think you can and will be a valuable asset to Nazgul Squadron: they need all the help they can get and it'd be nice to have some more folks with real guts around here- show 'em what you're made of, kid. You'll want to report to their thread on the Naval Main ComNet and, most probably, read up on your FL's bio- he's pretty much the only active member in that flight right now- they need some activity. If you have any questions comments or concerns- feel free to leave them here or contact our staff personally through Message Center. As for your exam- I'm ganna leave that with Tom for more practice- he'll get that back to you soon, enough. So, without further ado- welcome to the Imperial Navy, Bread.

Nazgul Squadron. That is awesome. Thank you very much. I just got an e-mail from Tomas and he said that I passed the Exam, but tld me to go here so I think everything is all good.
Thank you for your support as well. I wasn't sure about posting my own thread but I did as a first post into type of thing to get in character. Bread...hmm I think I like that more than GBM!
I can't think of anything else now, but if i have a question i will ask no problem. Thank you again. Peace!
