Rheinland Military Members Report!

[Virus]

The Rheinland Military is going through an overhaul. There have been (and will continue to be) some slight annoyances, but it should be worth it. Right now, I need every member of the Rheinland Military to fill out the following form for each of their characters, please. If one person flies more than one ship, then only one bio is necessary. Make it seem as though it was filled out by a commander during either recruitment or training. The one for Katharina Guntram is a good example. Keep in mind, though, that anything put here would only be visible by members of the BDM (Naval Intelligence) or those with the rank captain or higher (a character in a fighter, if you have a character in a cruiser, is not considered a captain, unless they literally are the same person. (Ex. "Vineta" "Meric.Freelamen":P).

My examples are not sentences, so unless you want me changing things on you, I suggest you use proper sentence structure.

Forum Name: Your forum name.
Name: Your character's name, in the form <First> "Call sign" <Last>. It is not necessary to have a call sign, but if your characters name (in-game) is not a real person's name (A.K.A. Niklaus Reinhardt), then it is necessary and should reflect the name of said character.
Rank: Your character's rank.
Age: Your character's age. Minimum 18 for recruitment.
Height: Your character's height.
Weight: Your character's weight. Pounds would be preferable.
Hair Color: Your character's hair color.
Eye Color: Your character's eye color.
Planet/Station of Origin: Where your character was born.
Background Information: Tell us a little about your character's past.
Basic Personality Traits: Tell us a little about your character's personality traits. Is he/she stern? Disciplined? Subordinative? (Ex. Krieg might be "Understanding, but has a stubborn, tough, and ruthless personality. Perfect for Marine Duty.")
Ship Class: What ship does your character command? Wrath? Phantom? Can be more than one.
Other: Anything else you find relevant or feel an RTC (recruit training commander) would put.

I'll post one about Schatten as an example:

Forum Name: Virus
Name: D'Mitri "Schatten" Adler
Rank: Lieutenant
Age: 21
Height: 5' 8"
Weight: 130 lbs
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Green
Planet/Station of Origin: Stuttgart
Background Information: D'Mitri Adler contacted a Rheinland Military recruiter on Planet Stuttgart four days after his 18th birthday. After being accepted for having no previous criminal history he was moved into the training facility on Planet New Berlin shortly after. He received commendations for superior fighter combat skills, but lacks discipline. He graduated training in the top 15% of his class and was reassigned to patrol duties based off of Battleship Strausberg in the New Berlin system.
Basic Personality Traits: Though D'Mitri claims to be the best at nearly everything, he is quick to compliment other's performances. This leads us to believe that he thinks less of himself than he lets on. He is known to have minor problems with authorities, but overall he should make an excellent pilot. He has never been known to connect well with his female compatriots during exercises.
Ship Class: Phantom Light Fighter
Other: He dislikes giving out orders.

... I forgot to note, for those of you that fly cruisers, gunboats, etc. could I have the name of your cruiser? For example, the cruiser Vineta, in DBoy's case. Thanks much.

So far, these have all been better than expected.

Also, I made a mistake in creating the form and forgot to add "Rank:" it has been added, so future posts should include it. If those above could fix theirs, I would appreciate it.

This sort of thing will help me in the near future, and I feel you will all appreciate it when I'm finished with my little "surprise" for the RM. Those who know will be executed if they reveal anything. Got it? Good.

Low-Level Restriction - Info File on Commander Jan Richthofen

Name: Jan Richthofen
Gender: Male
Age: 48
Rank: Commander
Ship commanded: Rheinland Gunboat - The Jaeger, also pilots a Phantom-class Light Fighter.

Personal History: Hailing from Planet New Berlin, Commander Richthofen did very well in Rheinland's military academy, getting an early entry from his school thanks to dedication and intelligence. He was a Lieutenant-Commander by 20, having entered active service at 18. He was well-respected by his brothers-in-arms, his subordinates and superiors. At 21, about a year before the Nomad War broke out, he disappeared.

Files on him had become restricted access to the highest degree. Those that did have access would find that he had betrayed his comrades to join the Order. This was true.

Jan had accidentally been witness to a Nomad infecting his superior, Captain Schmidt, aboard their cruiser, the Volksblada, during an Order attack. He shot the Captain and the Nomad with his sidearm and a bloody fight began on-decks between the infected and their dupes against the majority, those that were quick to believe Jan.

The attacking Order ships stopped their assault when they realised that something was going on. Eventually they received a message from Richthofen, who had taken control of the ship, damaging it severely in the process, being forced to detonate several torpedoes in their own bays.

Jan and the surviving members of his crew, many of them who still fly with him, were then inducted into the Order. Since the Volksblada was horribly damaged they served aboard the Osiris, Richthofen having a variety of duties.

He flew with the Order for nearly twenty years. He eventually left to return home, to aid in cleaning up the mess left behind in Rheinland. He feels it is his duty to expose corruption and make Rheinland a safer, more pleasant place to live (Cross Reference Mission Report Bravo Three-Forty).

Now, he has returned to active command of a ship in Rheinland... The Jaeger. His file has been altered so that his 'Traitor - Terminate' status has been altered to include a return from an honourable discharge.

It should be noted that he is rather unorthodox in his methods, although acceptably so. He has little patience for fools, but is rather laid back with subordinates that earn his respect. He even lets them use his first name, instead of his rank or surname, when addressing him. Apparently he feels it helps the crew gel together better.

Also, his crew still wear the black of the Order instead of our own uniforms. The reason is unknown, although there has been speculation and rumours of them having been through something rather momentous or horrific in the past and wanting to honour a sacrifice of some kind.

In spite of their obvious disregard for our dress code and their Commander's laid-back attitude with them, this crew is keeps itself very presentable and behaves in a very efficient and disciplined manner. Commander Richthofen himself keeps himself very neat with a short, white beard and a tightly tied-back, stubby pony-tail (technically against regulations, but he keeps to the spirit of the rules at least.). In spite of his advancing age, he keeps himself in shape, standing straight (if not tall), with a wiry strength about him.

More updates on the reinstated Commander's progress are to come.

[Dieter Schprokets]

Forum Name:Dieter Schprokets

Name: Dieter Schprokets

Rank: Lt

Age: 36

Height : 5'8"

Weight: 190 lb


Hair Color: Brown

Eye Color: Brown

Planet/Station of Origin: Hamburg

Background Information: Dieter Schprokets was born the son of a mid-level Rheinland Bureucrat. Wanting his son to enjoy the Glory that had been denied him due to nearsightedness, Dieter's father enrolled him in the Rheinland Military to become a pilot, only to be killed shortly therafter by a pirate who intercepted a transport ship he was on.

Basic Personality Traits : Highly intelligent, but highly eccentric. Determined, somewhat obsessive, and seems to be detached and cold in battle simulations. Excellant pilot. Does not seem to have regard for personal safety. Will likely "Stand and Die" regardless of combat odds. Really, really, really hates pirates, likely due to family history.

Ship Class : Wrath, and bomber, and desires to pilot Gunboat, all the better to kill pirates

Other: Highly organised, good sense of strategy, but lack of concern for own safety could create problems
