It is the year 0052 of the Omnipresent Calender, the year of launch for the Galaxy Ship Aleson, a mobile space colony set on course to find a second home for humanity after a recent encounter with an unknown alien force that wiped out the space colonies hovering Mars entirely. Garbled video show a massive, bi-pedal octopus-like creature rampaging a city and devouring inhabitants.
On board the Aleson are the Exodus (plural: Exodi), a four and a half meter humanoid war machine that's carried into combat by a jet-thruster based wing pack, in case of an encounter with the alien forces.
However, during the ship's trek for a secondary home, it somehow got entangled into a wormhole that sent the ship towards the other end of the universe. The alien force that had targeted the Mars colonies is now in full assault against Earth, with the space ship also being entangled in the millennial war between two separate alien forces- the inhuman Densone and the human-like Utusone, two races that are the males and females of the same species respectively.
This is tale of the Aleson on its newfound trek to return to Earth and assist in battle, as well as encountering the forces of the Densone and Utusone.
More importantly, this is a tale about the humanity inherent in all life.
A tale about culture.
A tale about love.
Densone: The males of the former Atsone race. The Densone are noted to be one of the most militaristic races in the known universe, with all children trained to be warriors since childhood. They appear as silver skinned five meter tall giants, with blue irises and a generally pulsating brain. Often in their combat power armor. Engaged in a millennium-long war with the Utusone.
Utusone: The females of the former Atsone race. The Utusone are a slightly more cultured race than their male counterparts, with more willingness to negotiate with potential enemies before blasting them to hell. However, like the Densone, they are also a very war happy race- if the negotiations fail, which eight out of ten times they will, they are more than happy to target you. Oddly enough, the look like giant females of the human race- much like the Atsone looked like giant humans. They stand at about 4.6 meters on average. It is unknown if that there is some form of link between humans and the alien race at this time. Like the Densone, they have combat power armor, but don't wear it constantly, preferring silk-like robes when not in combat. Engaged with a millennium-long war with the Densone.
Xenosaur: These are what targeted the Mars Colonies and are currently infesting Earth. Though they are shrouded in mystery at this time, the octopi-like creatures appear to be feast human brain matter, as well as have the ability to hijack a human body by use of a detatchable secondary brain.
This is gonna be short- the Exodi are mechs that are used in combat against alien forces. They are growing more and more into common place, with the Aleson being a major carrier of said mechs. They are armed to the teeth with weapons.
Macross:
The influence of Macross is pretty heavy- a given, since this is based off of a Macross II campaign pitch I had for a game that never happened. Like RahXephon's influence on sibling game War of Farndis, this shouldn't come as a surprise if you know me- I love the hell outta Macross.
Armored Troopers VOTOMS:
The Exodi are based off of the idea of the Armored Troopers (and technically, the Knightmare Frames from Code Geass)- small, rollerblading mechs that are armed to the teeth with fire power.
Vandread:
This is where the idea of having the Alseon be flung into the other end of the universe and... that's about it. Vandread was a comedy series, after all.

NAME: Seraphina "Sera" L. Edelsbacher AGE: 19 APPEARANCE:  RACE: Human STATUS: Civilian BIO: Sera's mother abandoned her and her father when she was three. She got over it relatively easily- though her father didn't. It took him a few years to finally date another woman- Aeris Martin, a young widow. They fell in love, and Sera and her father moved in with them. From a young age Sera was involved in the theater, dancing, singing, acting- a triple threat for the stage, as she was good at it all, and beautiful to boot. But with directors after directors giving her horrible conditions, even as a leading lady, she finally gave up at the age of seventeen, denouncing the theater ever since. Of course, if her little stepbrother has his way, this DEFINITELY will not be the end of what he is certain will be a lengthy career. She wants to give up dancing and singing and just go with acting, to be a movie star- but Zeke has other plans. His sister is going to be an idol. She can, and she will. NAME: Ezekiel 'Zeke' Martin-Edelsbacher AGE: 15 APPEARANCE: Oh Humon~  RACE: Human STATUS: Civilian BIO: The second one talks to Zeke, they begin to realize just how akin he is to a puppy. He's almost always excited, almost always happy, and any bad mood doesn't last too long for him so long as he sees something to play with or someone to talk to. He can be whiny, yes, but in an odd way that almost adds to his sweetness. His father died when he was young, having been caught between a battle. His mother took care of him and soon met an older man by the name of Thomas Edelsbacher. She and Thomas married, and he and his daughter Sera came to live with them. Ever since learning how talented she is, Zeke has been trying to push her to doing more things. He isn't going to let her give up what she has. He's a budding journalist, and will have a definite career in some form of writing one day. |

NAME: Kara Browning AGE: 20 RACE: Human APPEARANCE:  STATUS: Pilot BIO: Kara was an American citizen who enlisted in the military as an Exodi pilot at age 18. Her pre-military life was fairly standard and largely uneventful, but her skill as a pilot earned her much recognition and praise. So, when the Aleson's launch was delayed to accquire more Exodi and more pilots, she was one of the first transfered to the ship. She's a cunning strategist and leader who thinks well on her feet, but her wit also gives her a cutting sense of sarcasm. In her downtime, Kara is something of an aspiring artist with sketching and painting as her specialites. She also a fan of "older" art (IE: Movies, Music, etc.), however she loathes most, if not all sitcoms. She's also detests and is very afraid of spiders.

NAME: Maxwell Crosser AGE: 20 RACE: Human APPEARANCE: STATUS: Pilot BIO: Max was born to April and David Crosser, the first of two children. He grew up healthy, clinging to his father whenever he was home and his mother the rest of the time. He never really noticed the fact that his parents were never really close, but he was young so it didn’t matter to him. Going to school, he was teased often, due to being a bit pudgy and having glasses- typical childish angst. At the age of nine and a half, his mother revealed she was pregnant. Less than a month later she and his father were going for a divorce. David of course was vying for custody of the two children, and she over the house. His father was a very civil man, and knew he could take care of his two children very well. April thought differently. They fought often during that time- or shall we say, she fought him when he was home and raged on while he was gone. It was during this time that she began getting violent with Max as well, though mostly during periods of time when she’d drink. As such, his sister was born a month early- Maybelline Crosser, at a meager five pounds six ounces. Two days before the little one was released from the hospital, and one month before the set court date for the divorce, his father got into a terrible car accident and died. Starting then, whatever love he’d had for his mother was leaving him fast. He blamed her for his death, not to mention his sister nearly dying every other Tuesday. It didn’t help as she began to practically use him as her personal stress ball, taking her anger out on him often. That isn’t to say he didn’t half ask for it sometimes, arguing with her, yelling at her, threatening to leave, that sort of thing. Nonetheless, that didn’t make what she did any less horrible. He and his sister grew up. She was untouched by their mother, but was so accident prone he had a tendency to blame it on the woman. He took care of her as often as he could, which was most of the time really. At the age of eighteen, he and his sister set out to leave their mother’s house, to sneak out and never go back. Their plan was foiled as May tripped down the stairs and started crying, their mother rushing in, and then leaving to come back with a gun as they were starting back up to leave once more. She shot May on accident, in the shoulder, and he grabbed the gun. Being generally softer than her, he just began to call 9-1-1 when she attacked him, taking the gun back and attempting to shoot him. He snapped her wrist as she shot, causing her to shoot herself. After the paramedics came for his sister and the police to talk to them all, he and his sister were free (after she left the hospital that is). He was selected as a test pilot for one of the mech, exceeding many expectations and becoming a commander. Two years later, at the age of twenty, he and his sister were placed aboard the ship.

NAME: Jay Hawke AGE: 30 RACE: Human APPEARANCE: (See Attachment) STATUS: Repair chief BIO: Jay wasn't the designer of the Exodus, or any of their systems. He was, however, one of the design team that put them together, stacking the weapons and flight systems aboard the powered armor, adjusting the controls to allow the users to wear the armor plating as close to a second skin as possible, and he's still keeping up on the developments of other designers, working with his own kind of genius to distill the strange ideas and odd equipment into something workable, something formidable. He'd like to be a pilot himself, and in truth isn't without skills that even an ace pilot would envy, but his true skill is that of repair and modification, which gained his rank on the ships "ground crew" for their fighter corps. As such, Jay is also a member of the Aleson's command staff, though he rarely has time to spend on the bridge and is far from the ranking officer aboard. Infact, Jay is starting to feel rather old and useless. He's not the young ambitious officer he once was. With the seeming loss of the Sol system, his inability to do anything but patch up Exodi time and time again has started to wear on his spirit. Only time will tell if his growing pessimism shows the truth of the universe... or will be cleansed from his soul in the light of love... Attachments:

NAME: Maybelline Crosser AGE: 10 RACE: Human APPEARANCE:  STATUS: Civilian BIO: Maybelline, often just called May, was born in 0042 OC to parents April and David Crosser. She never met her father, who had died while she was still hospitalized, but was heavily doted upon by her mother. For her entire life, she's practically been attached to her older brother, Maxwell, to the point of trying to leave with him on his 18th birthday. With her normal horrid luck up until the days after (the family considered themselves lucky when she didn't get hurt somehow during the week), she was accidentally shot in her shoulder by their mother and blacked out shortly after. She was released into the custody of her brother a few weeks later, which lead to them bouncing around family until he joined the military. A few years later, after transferring to the base's school, she was taken along side her brother aboard the Aleson's colony/city, where she stays with one of Max's old friends from school, Sera, as he doesn't want her accidentally hurt in the crossfire.

NAME: David 'Joker' Wicker, 'Hotel Kilo', 'Hunter-Killer.'
AGE: 57-58.
RACE: Human.
APPEARANCE: A tall, grizzly man, with tanned, wrinkled skin. He has obvious crow's feet, laugh lines and aging marks, as well as peeling skin.
His head is round, and his hair is clean shaven. His ears stick out, red, and he has stubble, black, tinted with grey.
Even for his age, he looks attractive in a sort of grizzly way. Muscle definition, the tattoos from his youth, depicting rape, sodomy - the culture of his time raised in gangs.
STATUS: Soldier, Special Forces, Infantry.
BIO: Born and raised on Earth, he lived in a low-income, housing drug-den with his prostitute mother and rapacious father, whom would frequently load David up with cocaine at school.
He got his first tattoo at eight, and killed his first man only a day after. A cop, none the less. He was never convicted, nor the was the body ever found.
His mother OD'd, when she took to much blow whilst giving blowjobs. His father was shot when he was 14 in a drive-by.
Living in his gang's HQ, milling cocaine and beating women, he joined the Army at the age of 18, to escape all that.
He excelled as a Designated Marksmen, and was there at the first Vanguard attack by the Aliens. He has killed them, he has seen them, he has fought them.
This is all that is really known about David, mainly scraped from the internet. His military past is top secret, and nobody really has a clear indication of how many people he has killed or how many countries he has been forced to ruin for his army. Now, however, he is head of security for militia and infantry forces on the ship, and despite not having a suit, is one tough son of a bitch whom will never back down from a fight.

While this is a good character idea, Corte, it doesn't really fit the game's tone- primarily the backstory (mainly that his military past being top secret, and I'd like clarity as to which aliens too) and the tattoos. So make a few tweaks to those, and we're good. I'm willing to help out over PM, if you'd like. |
