IRP Name: Ignacio Rivera Age: 21 Height: 5'4'' Weight: 131 lbs. Biography: Forgive me if I'm enthusiastic. I'm a young one, came into this world a couple years after the turn of the century. Dad is a cobalt miner for BMM and mom's a silver miner for DSE. I didn't live with them much, but the times I did were fairly neat. I've always been fascinated with space, wanted to get my license as early as I could, so I took classes with my mother when she was working out for a mining position. I got the hang of it pretty quickly, which seemed to impress the instructors, I think due to my height. Tried out for the Navy's piloting programs at West Point, enlisted a few months later. I've lived in Liberty for about 18 years of my life, and I've loved every part of it. The Navy folks I met always seemed like they enjoyed the work, and the neat vids of deflecting pirate attacks made me want to take a part. I graduated a few months ago, and now I'm just awaiting my next assignment.
What's your motivation for joining our fleet?: Well, it's either the Fifth Fleet, or the First. Fifth Fleet seemed more energetic, which I like, and always seemed to get the job done.. at least, from where I heard of it.
OORP What kind of experience do you have on Discovery?: Good.
