Name: Aidan Dawson
Nationality: Osean
Age (18 at youngest): 27
Gender: M

Rank (O-1, O-2, or O-3): O-1
Callsign: Bones

Appearance:

Height: 5'11
Weight: 210 lb's


Personality: Quiet and bookish, Bones is most comfortable with his more extroverted WSO at his side. On his own, Bones prefers to keep to himself, often awkward when out with friends. In the air he is preoccupied with keeping ground forces well supported, often taking risks far too dangerous to give adequate support.
Strengths: Above average pilot, has the skills to dogfight, willing to take extreme measures to provide close air support.
Weaknesses: Heavy smoker, can panic when he feels like he is losing control of a situation, needs his WSO to work well, willing to take extreme measures to provide close air support.
Likes: Cigarettes, comics, pinball, punk from the Osean and Emmerian scenes, hitting the town with Wolf.
Dislikes: Spiders, not getting to do what he was trained to do, bar fights.

Bio: Resoundingly normal for most of his life, Aiden would have likely gone on to apprentice in his father's cabinet-making business if it weren't for the annual air shows put on by the OADF put on yearly over November City. The quiet and bookish Aiden would watch mesmerized as the pilots performed acrobatic feats and mock battles in the air, and Aiden would pretend he was one of them. It was a feeling that would stick with him farther into his life.

Aiden would go through his formative years in the typical way, there were embarrassments and triumphs, relationships and heartbreaks, successes and mistakes. His grades were good enough to make it into college where he majored in Business Administration and minored in the growing field of computer science. Entering the workforce at 21 he worked with his father for a time before going to work for a bank in Pacific City. Aiden made it well, you might have even called him a yuppie, but even with his own little office he couldn't help but look out the window to watch the pilots from the Naval Air station going through their training, and that small tinge of a dream from when he was a kid had never really left him. Why he did what he did isn't something Aiden can even really tell you, but when it happened it was like a burst of energy that wouldn't leave. Aiden needed something else, he needed to get out from behind his desk doing work he could only barely stand and do something. He enlisted.

the Air Defence Force Officer Candidate School came easily to Aiden, not that he had a natural talent for it or anything like that, it was just that he was utterly engrossed in every aspect of it. After spending so long filing expense data and earnings reports just having the chance to do something close to the thing he had dreamed about for so long was enough to give him a spark back. He especially excelled when it came to material related to aviation, so when the wishlist forms circulated, it was no surprise to any of his training officers that Aiden had written in only one option: Aviation. At 23 he began his career as a pilot. Well, he hoped, he didn't have his wings yet.

Initially, he was slated to be a C-130 pilot, his instructors moved him to Strike-Fighter school at his continued insistence under the provision that washing out of the program would have him be moved to a staff position. Luckily for Aiden, he excelled. While not the most skilled pilot in the training Squadron, he was the most willing to push his plane and take the risks needed to get the job done, a trait that got him the attention of his new trainers, good and bad. He graduated with passing marks at age 24, assigned to an F-4G and assigned to the 205th Strike Fighter Squadron. He would have his WSO assigned to him shortly thereafter and their squadron specific training began in earnest. Not only tasked with SEAD operations, but also with general interdiction and CAS operations in high risk airspace, the 205th was meant to take the riskiest jobs and come back for round two, something that appealed to Aiden, now Bones, greatly.

What a shame that he would never get to use those skills.

After taking a liberal interpretation of what their End of Active Service contract meant, Bones and his WSO Werewolf made for a place in the world where they might finally be able to put their skills to use.

Name: Nadeera al-Karimi
Nationality: Osean
Age (18 at youngest): 28
Gender: F

Rank (O-1, O-2, or O-3): O-1
Callsign: Werewolf

Appearance:

Height: 5'7
Weight: 177 lb's


Personality: Terse and easily annoyed, Wolf is good at her job and she knows it. She leans heavily on the status and role of her former unit to shape much of her post-military identity.
Strengths: Good at her job and cool under pressure, is a good foil to Bones' own worst qualities helping the pair become the better sum of their individual parts.
Weaknesses: Quick to anger and prone to holding a grudge. In the air she can let her frustration get the better of her despite her best efforts.
Likes: A good pint of bitter, crossword puzzles, punk from the Osean and Emmerian scenes, a good bar fight.
Dislikes: Quiet nights, insults to her abilities, not getting to do what she was trained to do.

Bio: Nadeera is what one might have termed a "problem child" in her formative years. Often bucking against the traditions of her family and even moreso against the rules of the school system she felt were so restrictive, Nadeera spent most of her weekends either in Saturday school or avoiding the truancy officers trying to drag her in to Saturday school.

It would be a mistake, however, to assume she was a delinquent. Her smarts just happened to be more unconventional, and the situations she was placed in rarely allowed her... unique personality to flourish. She would eventually be convinced to apply herself by a grandmother while in Sotoa one summer, her parents tired of having to deal with her. This woman, as firey as she was old, managed to impart a teenage Nadeera with wisdom that sometimes only a wooden spoon to the back of the head might impart. With respect established, Nadeera took to the old woman well and the lessons she taught her were invaluable. Nadeera learned folksy things from the old country, sure, but she also learned that you could only solve so many problems with fists and that the real way to get one over on the people who you felt wronged you was to rise above them. Not something a teenager with an attitude problem is likely to grasp at first, but as the years went on the words began to make more and more sense, and in new ways.

Nadeera would reapply herself, never losing her fighting streak but becoming a decent enough student to pursue a higher education. Originally intending to work as an interpreter she went to school for Sotoan Language Studies, but coming out the other end of university she found that what few jobs there were had been filled by people who had GPA's higher than hers by several digits. So, she did the thing all youths have done when faced with the prospect of a bleak future since the dawn of organized civilization: she said: "fuck it, I'll join the military."

She eventually found her way into the Air Defence Force, and not content to just slog it she joined Officer Candidate School, and her... unique personality made her few friends among the training staff. Well used to adversity, especially when caused by her own hard-headedness, she managed to do exceptionally well, even finding that she had a talent for understanding the finer points of Combat Systems Operations. Moving laterally to the Combat Operator School, performing well and passing with above average marks. She would then go on to be slated to join the 205th Strike Fighter Squadron and, per their tradition, was allowed to choose her own pilot just like the pilots were free to choose their WSO's on mutual agreement. She and a young pilot, callsign Bones, got on together well, their contrasting personalities fit well together when on training runs and each was inexplicably able to tolerate the other when not flying. In fact, the two would become fast friends, often going on pub crawls of crashing enlisted parties in the barracks.

It would be Nadeera's encouragement that would prod Bones into agreeing to sort-of-but-not-quite go AWOL when their active service ended, taking her inheritance from that same Grandmother and starting out on their own as private contractors, finally able to do the job they had been chomping at the bit to do since they had both joined the 205th.

Even though I'm writing an interest post for a new Ace Combat RP right now, I feel I should post.

The other problem is from what I've seen on the most recent page, now would be the perfect situation for Shinobu to defect.

Truthfully, given how you were inactive Shinobu was likely detained by the DAF due to her being a Seianese national once hostilities erupted between the two nations, so you'd probably need to escape if you wanted to get back involved. That said, there is another POW you could maybe work with.

Man, I missed a lot. But do tell, I'm always up for doriftoing through the countryside.

Hell of a better minigame than refueling, anyway.

Basically, Dorusia and Seian had a falling out following a failed operation to acquire an enemy prototype. DAF intercepted enemy ships which had already surrendered to the Seianese Second Fleet, and attempted to seize control, during which the SAF engaged. In the aftermath, Seian attempted to eject all foreign military assets from their borders. DAF refused as their war wasn't yet over. The former allies are now engaged in open hostilities with the DAF controlling Koga, Park AFB, Tienanmen, and Kaesong. SAF has attempted to disrupt the Dorusians but their efforts have had limited effect. Currently, DAF was seeking to neutralize an SAF aggressor squadron, Mononoke, but were ambushed, with Angel and Ranger defecting.

Concerning Shinobu, she'd have been detained because of her affiliation with Seian and is likely to have been transfered to the Kaesong region (as Koga lacks the facilities to accommodate POW's). Ronny Steinbeck and several pilots from Peasant are at the detention area as well after being captured a few months back.

[Rupudska]

In that case you're probably gonna have to describe the facility.

[Beiarusia]

In that case you're probably gonna have to describe the facility.

The POW camp is likely a converted facility (hospital, prison, etc.) commandeered by the DAF/SAF to accommodate the war. Let's say an old dormitory several kilometers outside Kaesong which has sense been outfitted with fencing, guard posts, and a watchtower. Nothing fancy. Just enough to keep the prisoners contained until the war ends and repatriation can commence. Population is well-under 1,000 with prisoners outnumbering guards between 2:1 to 3:1. A few attempted escapes but none that were successful. Not much for POW's to do but wait.
