4.) Describe in your own words your previous experiences, your view of the Xeno Alliance, and your motivation to join:
Answer: I was born on Freeport Two, Mom was a natural mechanic and my Dad worked on the administrative side of things for one of our local merchant groups, keeping track of income and expenditure, all that stuff.
As I was growing up I must have caught some of the sparks that possessed my Mom when it came to ships, and I decided I wanted to follow in her footsteps, 'course things didn't exactly work out that way, what with the war and the whole Jump Gates going being shut down. Things got tougher and tougher as the years went on and more reputable traffic in Bering died down. My parents decided to cut their losses and eventually moved to Erie. At the time I was still a bit too young to understand the complexities of the situation in Bering, and to be honest I was kind of distracted by the stark differences between life on the station and life on a planet.
Anyway, to avoid getting caught up in a nostalgic trip down memory lane, I'll summarize and fast forward. As I got older I began to understand what happened in Bering a bit better. And slowly but surely my focus began to shift from fixing ships to flying them. So, by the age of seventeen, I already had my sights set on learning to fly and taking up a position as a part of a convoy escort. I figured there wasn't exactly much to be done about Freeport 2 at the time, but at least I'd be able to stop the same kind of dirtbags who ended up running the show there from picking on our people doing supply runs and trying to scratch out an honest living.
It took me a while to even start working towards that goal, after all, I quickly learned that nobody in their right mind was going to take a rookie on her first flight out of the atmosphere onboard as an escort, but a year and a bit of hard work I managed to make enough credits to get a bit of experience from the flight school at Valley Forge. It wasn't much, but it did eventually land me the chance to tag along on a few milk runs. After some time passed and I somehow managed to not freeze up during a Rogue ambush, the team was content to bring me on some of the further runs and I learned a lot from them and the years I spent flying with them.
This brings us to recent events, I'm sure I don't need to tell you anything about the mess the fall of the Insurgency seems to be causing and the change of atmosphere in Pennsylvania and on Erie itself with the noose of Liberty and its corporations tightening around us. However, unfortunately, most people are either blind to the signs of history repeating itself or are only taking half measures to stop it.
Enter the dream of the LFR, I've spent my fair share of time at Ames, and I'll be honest, from my talks with the people there and some of the people from your cause, I hear a hell of a lot of sense being talked and the more time goes on the harder it gets to find flaws in the argument and whether it's for the LFR or Erie, one thing remains clear to me and that's the fact that there is no price too expensive where freedom and independence is concerned.
