That depends if you would want to play such a character, if the answer is yes, then, sure go for it, as the original post of the thread says, Multiple Characters are highly encouraged

[Sinyal]

Ok I'll get to it in a little.

[Barapam]

I see now that I forgot to erase a bit when I changed in my app mid-writing. "One of her dad..." Originally I intended to change from "one of her brothers" (or if it was cousins) to just "her dad", but if it works with her having two dads, as the text seem to suggest now, I might roll with it. It's not like they'll play a major part in the story anyway, I think.

I mean you decide, but, I'm just gonna say if you go with the two dads option please note that homophobia is very common in Russia

I know. I'll just go for the one dad then.

NS Name: Sinyal
Char Name: Drake 'Scarface' Marks
Type: Modified Human
Gender: Male
Age: 32
Appearance: Wears a metal mask all the time because his face has tons of scars on it. Doesn't show much skin in general. His right arm is covered in tattoos though. He also has a tattoo on his neck.

Bio: Drake was born in the US to a poor mother. He had to learn how to survive on the streets. This childhood would harden him into the man he became. When he was 18 he got into a American space fleet academy. He passed all the tests and eventually became a gunner. This went great for him as he rose up the ranks until he became a gunnery commander on 1 of the biggest ships in the US fleet, the USS Liberator. Then the colonization of Mars happened, and Drake got a lot of work guarding the US airspace and watching over convoys of merchant ships.

When the second civil war started, the US sided with the union, as they allowed AI citizenship and do not allow android slavery. Drake joined the fight commanding his gunnery section of the USS Liberator. He didn't really see action until the middle of the war, where he got into tons of battles. He became a veteran of 5 of the biggest battles in the war. Then on a normal patrol route, his ship got ambushed by some heavily armed confederate destroyers. The USS Liberation's left side got completely demolished in the process. Drake got out fine, but the captain of his ship, Brian Smith, died. Drake became captain of a ship which was part of the newly developed Trail Blazer class. It was called the USS Eruptor. Then, Drake went into his first battle with the Eruptor. It was also the biggest battle of the war. Things were going great, until a huge plasma blast hit the rear of the ship sending shrapnel into Drake's left arm. His arm got completely torn apart, and the enemy started boarding the ship. In the middle of the enemy boarding Drake got slashed in the face with a knife 5 times, which is how he got his scars. The USS Eruptor landed safely in America, where Drake went immediately to the hospital.

While Drake was sleeping in the hospital, he was fitted with a steel left arm. He didn't even care, all he wanted to do was get back into combat. So he went to the American space fleet headquarters, and got assigned to a big destroyer called the USS Dominator. He got back into action racking up kill after kill. Once the war was finally over and the Union had won the war. Drake received many medals including the purple heart. His total kill count was 89. The sad part was, he had nowhere to go. He was completely broke because the Us had spent tons of money on war supplies. This led him down a dark path. Joining a gang on Mars. He knew a gang would be very profitable, especially on Mars.
Affiliation: Gang Member
Equipment:
- Standard Cowboy Hat
- Big Dust Coat
- Combat Pants (Pants with tons of pockets for ammo and supplies, he wore them in his military days.)
- Combat Boots
- Custom Steel Mask Painted White
- GAU-8 Plasma Revolver
- AR-548 Scimitar

Personality: Gruff and always to the point, bossy and loud.
Modifications Left metal arm.

Likes: Guns and tactical equipment, money.
Dislikes: Getting beaten, small talk, people disobeying orders.

[Sinyal]

Ok

[Endem]

Your question will be answered soon

Okay, after some deliberation on the topic, the answer might not really suit you as, for now everyone needs to stick with one of the two storylines, meaning, that you will be able to create your own gang with the character that is currently apped but after the storyline said character is participating in finishes ( I swear both of them are pretty short )

[Sinyal]

Ok sure thing.

[Sarderia]

Very Interesting. Hereby I proclaime: le tagge.

[Harbertia]

Hope you don't mind me lurking around a bit. I'm not yet decided on joining but am interested in the Commodore so I may keep up with that character and comment from time to time even if I don't join.

NS Name: Bingellia
Char Name: Marlene "Scarlett Rose" Whitley
Type: Modified
Gender: Female
Age: 29
Appearance:

Bio: The Whitley family was involved in the colonization and terraforming of Mars from the very beginning of the effort, investing sums of money into the many private corporations. The family, now connected to Mars for four generations, is as massive as it wealthy from the wildly successful ventures. The family on Mars typically do not leave the wealthy and beautiful suburbs surrounding New Point, a large, industrial city within the American mandate.

It is into one of the many branches of this family that Marlene Whitley was born, in New Point, as one born on the Red Planet. Her father, a George Whitley, is a prominent stakeholder in the Mars United Lines, one of the many hover rail companies vying for dominance of the transportation networks on Mars. When not enjoying the soft comforts of his wealth, George Whitley spent time in the wilderness of Mars hunting the game he could.

Naturally, Marlene picked up her father's hobby at a young age and spent her free time going after evermore challenging game. Her obsession perhaps showed itself at it's most extreme when, for her 23rd birthday, she had arranged a hunting safari back on Earth. During the trip, she had killed several exotic targets. Yet, even tigers, panthers, and lions were not enough to sate her thrill for the hunt and eventually she turned to bounty hunting back on Mars in an effort to experience hunting the most dangerous game.

After all, she knew there was no better place than the wild plains of Mars to find her quarry with its abundance of gangs, thieves, and killers. Under the alias of Scarlett Rose, she would find them and enjoy every second of the hunt.

Equipment
A Bright-Aguilar model 2138 Rifle: This breach loading, lever action rifle is capable of delivering a single powerful shot before needing to be reloaded. Marlene has fitted it with a telescoping sight for more effective use at range.

A Watts model 2140 revolver: This revolver sacrifices its capacity for power, affording Marlene five high-energy shots at targets that get close.

One knife

Optional
Personality: On the surface, Marlene may seem like a perfectly reasonable person. She's friendly enough and even-headed, and she certainly won't object to sharing a drink or playing a round of cards, However, she becomes calculating and sadistic on the hunt as she seeks her entertainment, and more than able to make crippling shots if a clean one doesn't present itself.
Modifications:
Her eyes have both been replaced with cybernetics, affording her better low-light vision while on the hunt. While in use, they add a very faint glow to Marlene's icy eyes.

Okay, so, for clarification purposes, in those cases I would demand an explanation in which storyline the character will take part in or determine it from the backstory, but, in this case, I had Discord connection to the person who apped and it was discussed there, so

NS Name: Ecradia
Char Name: Riley Tinker, known in some outer settlements as "La Señora Comebisonte"
Type: Modified
Gender: Female
Age:

Biological: 24
Actual: 43

Appearance:

https://i.pinimg.com/originals/a5/e1/0a/a5e10a524cdefeeaafae270fef25da29.jpg

Don't open this image until you've reached the modifications section:

Bio: Born at the turn of the century on Earth, her parents brought her to Mars shortly after her birth. As such, she grew up mostly in the outskirts of New City, in a part of the city whose economy was powered almost entirely by the nearby industrial plants. She was severely wounded in an industrial accident mere months before the Martian War kicked off. Normally, that would be the end of the story. However, her body was seized by martian scientists who went to work turning her into a prototype of what they believed would be a super weapon that could outmatch the superior quantity of forces field by Terran armies. The scientists replaced and enhanced her limbs and much of her body with high-end, military-grade cybernetic implants and Project Loogaroo continued on, leaving Riley Tinker more machine than human. Surprisingly, everything went as planned, up until she was to begin training. The research facility that she was being housed in was raided and destroyed by Terran forces and she alone escaped into the martian night. She has spent the last two decades wandering the Martian wasteland, hunting for food with her newfound, mechanically enhanced strength and a laser rifle. Due to her tendency to attack and eat New Bison, she became a minor local legend in the vein of the Chupacabra among some of the outer settlements started by majority-Spanish speaking settlers, who refer to her as "La Señora Comebisonte" or simply "La Comebisonte," a portmanteau of the word comer, Spanish for "to eat" and bisonte, Spanish for "bison." Recently, she arrived in Big Iron, looking for work.
Affiliation: Civilian
Equipment: Y-3I Rattlesnake Laser Carbine: A martian-made laser rifle designed by an offshoot of the Terran Armalite Weapons Conglomerate for use in the war by separatists, the Rattlesnake is generally considered a reliable and accurate weapon.
Mark 7 Survival Knife: A simple, yet effective design, originally made by European migrants into the EU Zone, which quickly filtered into American markets, as a multi-tool for use on the frontier.

---

Optional
Personality: Riley is a person who understands the value of second chances. She's still unsure of who or what she's supposed to be, or even what she wants to do with this second chance she's been given, even two decades in, so she's been living the life of a drifter, helping out people she meets as best as she can. She never had much sympathy for the independence movement, and to this day views it as an entirely lost, but more importantly, morally wrong, cause. She's very self-conscious about her involuntary transformation into a cyborg and perfers to keep her mechanical bits as covered as she can.
Modifications

• Nanomachine blood: During her transformation into a cyborg, all of her blood was drained as part of a process which successfully slowed the rate at which her cells died to negligent levels. However, an unintended consequence of this was that her cells could no longer divide or adequately repair cell damage. To combat this, the scientists filled her former bloodstream with oxygenating fluid and nanomachines which convert organic material into replacement cells and repair cellular damage.
• Jaw and mouth enhancements: In order to facilitate the intake of sufficient amounts of blood so as to repair cell damage and replace dead cells, part of her upper jaw was replaced with a pair of retractable pneumatic hypodermic needles.
• Cybernetic Exoskeleton: Much of her arms and legs, as well as large portions of her torso have been replaced with combat cybernetics
• Enhanced vision: In addition to replacing her eyes with more functional ones, she also can see into the IR spectrum and utilize more traditional night vision.

---

Likes: She loves horses and working with children, as well as Martian cryptozoology and the emergent folklore of the Red Planet. She adores the idea of extraterrestrial life, and generally enjoys exploring and seeing new places. She's approximately neutral leaning positive on androids, as she doesn't have much of an opinion on them.
Dislikes: In general, she's not particularly fond of her cybernetics, especially the requirement for her to consume raw, or nearly raw organic material, though she knows she wouldn't have lasted long without the work that was done on her. Moreover, she doesn't particularly enjoy going into what happened in the twenty-odd years between her escape from the Confederation Facility and her return to society.
