A habitual smoker and off-the-books type officer, she is not afraid to break military protocol when getting the job done. She has large shoes to fill, being the daughter of one of the most renowned military officers in Federation history. She has a deep understanding of advanced naval tactics, having written two award winning manuals [i]"The Intricacies of Naval Command"[/i] & [i]"Three-Dimensional Chess"[/i] before she had graduated from Earth's prestigious Sigma Federation Naval Academy. Many consider Miranda a prodigy, others a pretty face with no experience and a famous father. Either way, she cares about her crew and hopes to bring her knowledge to further her father's legacy. [b][u]Biography:[/b][/u] Miranda was born a single child to James A. Chevalier, the former Grand Admiral of the Federation System Alliance Navy before his legendary death at the Battle above Lazarus ten years before the completion of the Vigilance. In his respective honor, the six battlecruisers sent to space were named the [i]Chevalier[/i]-class Battlecruisers and the Vigilance was named after Chevalier's flagship [i]"The Vigilant"[/i] which was overwhelmed and destroyed by rebel forces in the decisive battle. At the age of 17, Miranda was enlisted in the Federation Naval Reserves and sent to the Sigma Federation Naval Academy, where she graduated from the four year institution in just two years after scoring a perfect score on the Naval Officer's Exam, a feat unheard of among the service. At the age of 19, she was already a Lieutenant and a master of naval strategy, writing several books and developing many theories on advanced strategies. Despite her overwhelming lack of combat and command experience, her advice was commonly sought after by her senior officers, and before long she found herself serving as a personal aide de camp to the current Grand Admiral of the Fleet, Markus Aurelius, where she displayed an overwhelming affinity for command. When the Chevalier-class Battlecruisers were laid down and the sixth ship was christened as "The Vigilance," The Federation Naval Brass had no capable members of the admiralty to command it, thus a vote was declared for a suitable commander. By a narrow margin, Lieutenant Commander Miranda Chevalier was selected to serve as the captain and commanding officer of the Vigilance. To bring her up to the command level required of her station, she was promoted a full three grades to Rear-Admiral, a position where many question if she is capable of handling. --- [b][u]Enlistment Form[/b][/u] [b][u]Full Name:[/b][/u] [i]Classified[/i] [b][u]Callsign:[/b][/u] Akula [b][u]Gender:[/b][/u] [i]Unknown, Presumed Male[/i] [b][u]Age:[/b][/u] [i]Unknown[/i] [b][u]Branch of Service:[/b][/u] FSA Navy [b][u]Rank:[/b][/u] (O-2) Lieutenant Junior Grade [LTJG] [b][u]Military Occupational Specialty:[/b][/u] Fighter Pilot - Red Squadron Leader [center][b][u]Appearance:[/b][/u][/center] [center][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/lKixwDg.png[/IMG][/center] [b][u]Personality:[/b][/u] Akula is cold, calculating and cunning. He is an ace pilot that cares not for the safety of others. He is obsessed with the concept of victory, and yearns for an opponent that can test his mettle. An enigma, he does not socialize or even acknowledge the existence of fellow personnel, only able to acknowledge the concept of orders and his enemy. Casualties for Akula, are just a statistic. [b][u]Biography:[/b][/u] Much of Akula's life is shrouded in mystery, his service record and even his medical history are classified to everyone but the highest of the command staff. As a result, many rumors have spread across Akula's service history, including his gender, age and even his existence has been often scrutinized, with many service members considering Akula's exploits [i]"impossible by any mortal pilot"[/i] Akula is the poster child for the famous Aurelian Industries, the designer and sole manufacturer of the HI-10 [i]Whirlwind[/i]. He was the first pilot to fly and test the new fighter, and the exosuit that he wears is a prototype flight interface system that is currently unavailable for Whirlwind pilots. His helmet is commonly found plastered on Aurelian Industries advertisements, and when he is not flying for the Federation, he is commonly reported testing new designs for the company. This has been the cause of many ill-rumors, many of which claim that his true loyalties lie towards money and glory rather than the good of the Federation Navy. Akula's service history is as mysterious as Akula himself. The only factual history dates only several months ago. Former Commander Akula was one of the most decorated ace-pilots currently flying for the Federation. However, a freak accident where one of Akula's wing mates was suddenly sent spiraling into a pirate frigate during an ill-fated ambush sent Akula to the Court of Military Justice, which tried to prosecute Akula on the claim of murder, stating that he [i]"...deliberately and intentionally engaged his own wingman, sending Lieutenant Seraph straight into the bridge of an enemy frigate."[/i] While he was accredited yet another astounding victory, the murder of one of his squadron was considered questionable. Akula was found innocent to the account of murder, though many in the military who had analyzed the evidence found his acquittal incredibly suspicious. Because of his nonchalant attitude to the ordeal, and Akula's outright refusal to attend his fallen comrade's military funeral, the Federation Brass found Akula unsuited for the rank of Commander, demoting him a full, three grades to [i]"Ensure the safety of military personnel under their respective command staff."[/i] To many's surprise, the Demon of the Round Table has emerged once more, to command half of the 53rd Fighter Wing as "Red Squadron"
