Crayterian Fleet Database Entry #F-1752
Name: Alexander Marquiss

Age: 27

Birthplace: Planet Houston, Texas System

Biography: I was born to a Kusarian mother and Bretonian father and spent my early youth on Planet Houston in the Texas system. My father is a transport captain for Bowex which meant he was very rarely present in my life, and my mother is.. was a very skilled mechanic. When I was about 8 she was hired to be a chief engineer aboard a Zoner Colony Ship named Vankaara. We spent most of our time keeping the colony as well as all it's assorted vessels in tip top shape, I can't say I was a very good mechanic but I was told often I was an amazing assistant, who knows if they were being honest or simply polite. Shortly after my 18th birthday we, The Vankaara, quite literally managed to crash into a planet... I have no idea how but about 83% of the people on board were killed, including my mother. It was then I decided to take my leave and spent all my time flying around doing small odd jobs here and there all over and around the Omegas in my mother's old dromedary freighter. The years seemed to fly by and before I even realized, I was 27 and flying the dromedary from Bretonia to Liberty when I had a pretty bad run in with some moron claiming I had wronged the 'National Council' whatever the hell that is supposed to be. Needless to say the dromedary was destroyed and I found myself getting hand outs from some charity, now all I have is a Stargazer Shuttle and 7m credits to my name.

Relevant Experience: I can't say I'm a good pilot.. hell sometimes I wouldn't even call myself a pilot, but I'm still alive so that has to count for something right?

Your reasons for applying to the Military: Was visiting Coronado and had a nice chat with an officer named Harlequin. Didn't seem to give much propaganda but the experience was uplifting. After all it was a Crayterian charity that gave me what I have so might as well try my best to give something back.

// OORP Section;
1) How long have you been on Discovery?
April 2014 but as I said inRP I'm really a terrible pilot so time played doesn;t do me any justice

2) What characters and ships have you had thus far?
I have 6 ships in the SEI un official faction and I was halfheartedly trying to make my own faction, the BxF, but for now it's just a personal thing that I RP with sometimes.

3) How often do you normally play/come online for?
Every single day though sometimes I'm on for no more than 30 minutes. I am usually online between 8pm and 4am ((UTC -5))

4) What is your Skype username?
billy_calton (Garland, Tx)

Side Note:
Just like my piloting skills, my RP is rather lacking but I'm working on it.
