-Phoenix Application-
Name:Taigam Carver, but you can just call me Tay
Age: 26
Affiliation: Freelancer
-Where I came from-
I am a dual citizen of Kusari and Liberty, but I've spent most of my life in and around Liberty.
I have no personal connection to Phoenix or the Zoners beyond a philosophical appreciation of what you guys are about. I was born on Kyushu to a family of rice farmers. We moved to Pittsburg during my formative years (way back in 800 when the economic decline in Kyushu was just starting), where my Father was promised work as a boron miner. Sounds like a side grade right? Well it pretty much was, but the work was comparatively stable and through it he managed to save up enough creds to send me to a tenth-way decent secondary education school on Manhattan. I made the best of it that I could but hey, Im not really the academic type. So when I took a 2 week flight simulation course for giggles and managed to do well enough to earn a sponsorship for college from DSE, I thought I had it made!
The sponsorship payed for a civilian pilots license (Didn't do well enough for Military; I wasn't THAT good), with the clause that I took a 4 years contract as a transport pilot for DSE. I was so ready to live this awesome life of freedom and wealth amongst the stars, the kind that no one in my family had ever experienced before.
What I actually experienced was a 4 year long reality dose. While flying for the DSE, damn near everything I did from the moment I woke up to the moment I hit the hay was dictated by my job, I had no freedom of choosing my destination, barely any vacation time, the pay was mediocre, and I was robbed by pirates more times than I can count. Well; I stuck it out and did my four years, took my cash, and haven't looked back.
-Why I'd like to join-
The point of saying all that being that between myself and my family we have spent far too much of our lives being wage-slaves to House corporations, and I want out! I'm ready to experience the life of true freedom Phoenix claims to offer. I'm willing to contribute to the welfare of the group and be a team player, so long as at the end of the day I know I can always buzz off to who knows where and do whatever if I so choose.
In terms of qualifications I'm a fully licensed pilot with my own ship, I've been doing Freelance work for the past few days and my combat skills have improved at least a bit since that training simulation.
I hope to make a decent addition to your society and help in the search for an independent place to settle.
