Recruitment office of the Brotherhood ([TBH])

[Lucend]

A disgruntled looking floating head appeared on the screen as the applications were being recieved.

"Oi! What in the blimey heck is going on here? Can't an AI with an I.Q. over 200 get some sleep on this grubby planet?!"

The floating head looks at the two recruits and laughs.

"Oh! The Brotherhood wants to recruit some new people eh? Well they can forget about it! The last ram stick they put in me short circuited."

The head's eyes immediately went the the door where an unidentified Elder held a mallet menacingly.

"Errr, I mean. I would love to help the Brotherhood! Ha! Your applications have been received. Complete the quiz to gain full membership."

"The thirteen saloons that had lined the one street of Seney had not left a trace. The foundations of the Mansion House hotel stuck up above the ground. The stone was chipped and split by the fire. It was all that was left of the town of Seney. Even the surface had been burned off the ground.
Nick looked at the burned-over stretch of hillside, where he had expected to find the scattered houses of the town and then walked down the railroad track to the bridge over the river. The river was there."

[fabiankomatej]

Name: Fabiano[TBH] - If it isn't good, it is not problem for me
Real name is Fabian :lol:
Age: 24

Skills: I like fighters. For example I like LF more than VHF because it is more
manoeuvrability. On the other hand VHF is more stronger and powerful.
So result is I like fighters(bombers too). I like capital ships too
but they are so big. My skill is the best when I have Fighter(Bomber).
I still learn more about PvP fights and I getting Better and Better.

Reason why I choose you: I like Corsairs - they are in systems where is important to be.
I like work in team and I see TBH is still in large number
of ships near (for example) NB JH in sigma 13. I think
TBH clan has many active players. And finish reason is -
be policeman is boring so i want to be pirat.

Biography: When i was young we lived in decent conditions. We were Zoner family.
We lived in Omega-41. Only father was Corsair pirat. I don't know him because
he died when i was 3 years old. Hessians killed him whan he was on a patrol
in Omega-5. My mum was housewife so whole family businees took my older
brother Fabricio. He was Zoner Trader so he work a lot. He earned so much
what we need to stay alive. Than I growed up and i wanted to work too as
Fabricio. I earned for Starflier and I found something imaginary. It was
wreck of Old Imperial Navy Fighter. It has Class 10 guns so I collect
them and sell. I earn 500 000$. As fast as I could I flew to Dublin.
There I beted all my money to a race. Racers were John McFly(Bretonian)
and Albrecht von Decimel(Rheinlander). I beted all money for John. He won
and I had sudden 5 000 000. I bought new ship for Fabricio, new kitchen
unit for my mother and I bought for myself Centurion. Odds money we gave
to the bank. This was the start of my live with Corsair flag. I worked
for Corsair boss. It was hard work. I was always in missions. One day
Ontario Ruiz(Outcast) destroyed me but not killed. One my good friend
took me and bring back to Omega-5. I was serious injured. I cured for
2 months. I had sufficient money so I decided to buy better ship.
I bought Titan. Missions were back and i earn again money. After 2 years
we moved to Omicron Gamma on planet Crete. Fabricio was still trading,
mother was still housewife, but I was captain of the Corsair invasion
force. This is my story and story of my family.

Kain walks into the bar. Without any delay, he looks around and spots the test terminals. He walks straight towards them with no hesitation and enters the following into the first terminal...

*****************

#### Skid FAK .. ()*& sdj2 KJ()d GRsd.....###

***BBBBBBEEEEEEEEEP***

***BEEP***BEEP***BEEP***BEEP***BEEP***

*****************

"Hmm" thinks Kain after the beeping stops. Apparently the first terminal has some issues. Kain moves over to the next terminal and enters the following....

*****************

Name: Mateo[TBH]
Real Name: Kain Mateo
Age: 25

Skills: I'm an experienced pilot. I've been around the entire Sirius Sector and am familiar with the different systems. I've also learned a decent amount of ship engineering. So repairs and modifications to most of the stock in the Corsair shipyard, will be no problem to me. Just give me a ship, I'll prove myself from there.

Reason for choosing the Brotherhood: Who else? My farther was a honorable member and was well respected amongst the Corsairs. Now I want to serve with the Brotherhood.


Biography: Kain de Mateo, born 780 on Crete. The second son of a family of four sons and two daughters. Kain's father, Leonardo, came to Crete on a slave ship. Leo's original heritage is unknown. When Leo arrived on Crete, he began his service to the Mateo family, and eventually was taken such a liking to that he was adopted as a son. As Leo grew up, he trained very hard to become a pilot. Eventually he joined the Corsairs particularly the Brotherhood.
For the next 30 years, Leo served the Brotherhood, gaining honor and respect amongst his fellow brothers. In one particular mission. Leo had an epic battle with a bounty hunter known as Kain. Leo talked very highly of this Bounty Hunter, since he was so unlike most of the Hunters. Besides for the bounty hunter's ace piloting skills, this bounty hunter, was also honorable. The first time Leo encountered the bounty hunter, Leo's ship was already damaged and there was no hope of survival, yet the bounty hunter let him go. However, it was not long before they found one another again. The bounty hunter had a far superior ship at the time, but Leo managed to win in the end through a lucky chance.
After Leo returned home, he had his second son, and named him Kain after the bounty hunter. Kain grew up with his three other brothers and two sisters hearing many of the adventurous duels his father had. But Kain's father encouraged all of them to not become pilots. It was clear Leo had seen many brother pilots die in space and feared that for his sons and daughter. So Kain's older brother, Dagnar, took what his father had said and went to school and attempted to learn more about Politics. Eventually Dagnar, left Crete and went to the New York system to further his education.
As the years passed, Kain still wanting to be a pilot become a trader and eventually was flying around the entire Sirius Sector. But then bad news came in. On one trade while Kain was flying through the Omega 7 system, he received a transmission from a line that he knew was from his home on Crete. It was his mother.
Apparently his older brother had been arrested and convicted for some serious illegal activity and was already being transported as a prisoner to the Houston System. Kain's father, Leo, believed Dagnar had been false accused. So Leo organized a group of fighters to join him, intercept the prison ship before it reached Houston, and free his son Dagnar. But Leo never reached the Houston System. A larger group of Outcasts intercepted Leo and his wingman. Some of Leo's wingmen survived barely to return and tell the story. Kain returned to Crete shortly after that.

Now I, Kain Mateo, son of Leonardo Mateo, wish to join the Brotherhood.

Carlos Rivera walked into the bar and straight towards the recruitment terminals. Eager to submit his application, he quickly started typing...

---Commence Transmission---
To: The Brotherhood Recruitment Offices, Planet Crete
From: Carlos Rivera
Subject: The Brotherhood Application

Full Name: Carlos Rivera
Callsign: Rivera[TBH]
Age: 19

Skills: I have an extensive background with very heavy fighters and even bombers. I know all of the Corsair weaponry and can make effective combinations on any ship I come by.

Reason for Joining the Brotherhood: I've heard that this was the most popular and the best Corsair group in all of Sirius and I would like to be a part of it. Hopefully, I can help out all of my fellow Corsairs here.

Biography: I was born on Planet Crete in the year 797 A.S. My father was a respected Corsair fighter and a brilliant strategist in the war against the Outcasts. However, he angered them so much that a group of Outcasts murdered him and his escorts in a surprise attack (may his soul rest in peace). One of those escorts was my mother (may her soul rest in peace as well). With no siblings or parents, I was forced to fend for myself. Swearing revenge, I saved up some credits to puchase a Titan very heavy fighter and then went to the Graveyard of Innocents to prove myself. Luck must have been against me that day because I saw four strange ships on my scanners. They seemed...alien. Looks like that Corsair in the bar was right. With no weapons, I rammed into an asteroid while dodging the alien's fire. Luckily, an artifact was knocked loose, so I tractored it in and fled before I was turned into space dust. Now that I had completed the trial, I was ready to go after the Outcast scum. I gathered up some friends who had also lost their parents in that attack and we headed to Omicron Eta, the system where our parents had perished. We flew past the minefield and saw the assassins leaving Palermo Base. Once they had left the safety of the base, we closed in and attacked them. After a long and brutal fight, we killed the assassins. With our hearts at peace now, we returned to Crete.

This is the story of me and my family. Now I wish to join the Brotherhood and put a stop to the Outcasts once and for all!

The terminal that Rivera was typing on suddenly went blank. Confused, the Corsair banged on the screen with no effect. He was about to walk away when the screen turned on again.

"Oh why do you torment me!? I don't want to process your application you grubby Corsairs! Why why why why...."

"Oh you should know why, now process the application before I downgrade your RAM you ungrateful A.I."

An unidentified TBH member seemed to come out of nowhere and scold the poor terminal. When the Corsair who typed in the application gave him a quizzical look, he smiled.

"Don't worry, this guy was a Bretonian hacker we found trying to infiltrate our database. We were thinking that if he thought he was so smart, he could handle our applications for us."

The Brother then looks around in a broom closet, finding what he was looking for and handing it to Rivera.

"If he gives you anymore trouble, use this." Handing Rivera a mallet.

Taking the mallet with a word of thanks, Rivera turned back to the terminal and said,

Are you going to process my application or will I have to show your circuits a large amount of pain?

He holds up the mallet and the terminal says,

Noooooo, not the mallet!!! Ok, ok, it's processed, bu tyou still have to answer these 10 questions!

Rivera sat down and looked at the questions. Thinking carefully, he typed in his responses and double and triple checked them again and again for about half an hour to make sure he got them right. He had already come this far and he wasn't about the screw up. He pressed 'Submit' one for time to send his answers. Waiting for his reply, he sat back in his chair and began sipping his whisky again.

Application de Brotherhood

Full Name: Francisco Serrano

Age: 28

Skills:

As a former captain de freighter, my navigation skills are, shall we say, Excellente! But you must forgive me, my fighting skills are, shall we say, rudimentary. Since losing an eye to those Bretonian murderers, I, shall we say, must wear a patch. But my heart is as a fighter, and I will give all of my corazon to The Brotherhood to make me, shall we say, a fighter pilot de diablo.

Reason for choosing The Brotherhood:

The Bretonians must pay with their blood, their livelihood, their very soul. Im sworn to their destruction, and together, we will swear, shall we say, to deliver to them the anvil de muerto.

Biography:

The tale of mi familia is painful and difficult to tell. I was making a simple living freelancing as a captain de freighter in Bretonia. And on many trips, my beautiful wife Angelica and my daughter Francesca would accompany me. But on a trip to Leeds I was ruthlessly attacked by members of the Bretonia policia and forces de arms. I alone escaped. My poor familia waits for me in heaven, and I will join them soon. But first, my revenge will be frigid and complete.

Sincerely,

Francisco Serrano de Crete

[Absolutex]

1. Rogelio Vega

2. 22

3. Navigation, hand-eye coordination, "trigger finger", desire for revenge

4. The Corsairs have been split up across Sirius. We need to band together, not just to fight the Bretonian menace, but to forge a new power in the galaxy. I believe that The Brotherhood is already on the path to greatness.

5. Rogelio Vega was born on Planet Curacao to a wealthy tourist who settled down and a retired Corsair who owned the local Orbital Spa & Cruise pub. After four years of tumultuous marriage, it was discovered that Rogelio's father was cheating on his wife with an up-and-coming S&C pilot. Rogelio's mother left Planet Curacao with her son in a fit of rage and attempted to fly back to Planet Crete to begin working again as an active Corsair. While en route, she was ambushed by a covert Bretonian patrol. She managed to escape to a Freeport, the exact station is still unknown, and managed to drop off her son with a friend before being captured by the pursuing Bretonians who had docked at the station. Rogelio never saw his mother (or father) again, but was instead raised by his "Uncle Pedro" who told him stories of the former glory of the Corsairs. He would occasionally begin to murmur and ponder as he remembered the days of strength and posterity. Pedro took Rogelio out in his custom Titan at the age of 9 and the boy was hooked. Over the years, Rogelio refined his abilities and became a sort of legend in the pubs of the various bases and Freeports around his "home" system. Gas and mine fields, asteroids, even radiation - eventually nothing posed a problem for him and his honed reflexes. Rogelio grew up with a quasi-legal background, but always had an itch for the unknown, the dangerous, the appealing. Now, he scours the Sirius sector looking for whatever work he can find, but hasn't been satiated by any job he's found. However, he has remembered the stories of his mother's background...
