Konnichi'wa, I am Akise Takanashi. I wish to apply for a position in the IMG. Here are my particulars.

[color=#33FFFF]Primary Information:

Name: Akise Takanashi
Age: 27
Citizenship: Kusarian

Biography:

Akise Takanashi was born into the Takanashi family on Planet Kyushu. His father is the famous geologist, Kouta Takanashi, of New Tokyo University.

He was heavily influenced by his father who often took him out on expeditions to asteroid fields in New Tokyo in his mining ship. Often, he would lecture him on the different minerals and rocks collected from these fields. This information, although often branded as "boring" to most people his age then, was of great interest to him. He began to grow more and more fond of geology.

One of his father's gifts to him was a metal detector. It was a present given to his on his 16th birthday. He took great pride in cleaning and learning to operate it. Soon, he was out on his daily "hunting" sessions into the open fields of Kyushu. Picking up random rocks that showed on his metal detector and identifying their origin, age and other details.

After his graduation from New Tokyo University with the same degree as his father, one of geology, he pooled together his savings and bought a mining ship. He would use this ship to accompany his father on "expeditions" to nearby asteroid fields.

It was there that he learned more about mining. On the process of obtaining ore from asteroids and refining them. He grew interested in the process. It was attractive indeed, a chance to not only study the rock formations as he was so fond of, but also a chance to earn a pretty penny whilst doing it.

Originally, he worked at Samura, just like his father. But he soon saw that working there was more "profit" than "education". More often than not, he would examine rocks carefully, doing his own little experiments on them. However, a manager would soon come along and reprimand him for wasting time and demand that he get back to work instead of lazing around staring at stones.

Soon, he just about had enough. He decided it was best to do it solo, with nobody to harp on you. He set off, purchasing a mining ship and leaving his home planet in search of valuable minerals. He moved away from the usual asteroid fields and went deeper into the Borderworlds. And it was there, in Tau-23, that he stumbled onto the IMG, a group of Independent Miners, going where no mining corporation ever gone before, a group of free miners that dedicated themselves to not only mining, but the preservation of the mining fields.

Now he wishes to join them. A chance to do what he loves the most, a chance to earn money and a chance to further his studies in the field of geology.

Secondary Information:

Outline the Independent Miners Guild goals:
An independent mining group dedicated to its employees, not the profit. Each miner is treated fairly, each miner is given the recognition he or she deserves.
An independent mining group with more guts than the corporations. A group who pushes the limits of mining. Mining in locations otherwise deemed too hostile or inhospitable.
An independent mining group that will enable me to do what I like, that allows me to go deeper into uncharted territory that corporations would restrict access to, that allows me to do my research without some bossy manager shouting at me to stop staring at the rocks and start mining.

What can you contribute while inside the Guild ?
My father is the famous geologist, Kouta Takanashi! I also have his talents. I have graduated from New Tokyo University with a degree in geology just like him. Naturally, that puts me as a worthy candidate for the research and development field. Also, I am a good miner...I think. I have worked with my father collecting minerals from various fields for study, so I should be able to handle myself in a mining ship.

Which are your personal reasons for joining the Guild ? Also, which IMG Department would you like to be part of ?
Personal reasons? Firstly, the guild doesn't shout in my ear when I'm busy studying rocks. Secondly the guild allows me to travel into space normally restricted to corporations, and that's where the interesting ores are. Thirdly, I get to keep a larger profit than what Samura pays me. Although putting me as part of the Research department would make more sense. I prefer to mine my own rocks for my own research and earn some cash in the meantime. Therefore, I wish to be part of the Mining Department.
