[b]Personality:[/b] Captain Barad has been accused of being stern and slightly cold. This being only his second long distance voyage, he is becoming increasingly irritated with people doubting his abilities. Throughout his schooling, Barad proved himself to be highly intelligent and resourceful. He is not overly emotional, logical, and, most importantly, has a deep running respect for life.

Captain Barad is not one to jump the gun and start a fight, although he will certainly finish it. He avoids trouble when he can, always putting his ship and his crew before himself and his own pride. As with every captain, Barad was trained to not let his humanly desires, those for life, love, and victory, to endanger his mission or ship. Truly dedicated to his duty, the only woman in his life is named the Jubilee.

[b]Appearance:[/b] Captain Barad is of Arabic decent, with a medium brown skin tone, brown eyes, and black, curly hair. His hair is shoulder length, often worn in a bun or ponytail while working. He is a bit on the short side, standing at 5'7". He has a muscular build, his physical prowess making up for what he lacks in size. His best fighting aspects are his close range skill and aim, but he prefers to try and use his head first.

[b]History:[/b] Born in Iraq on Earth, Isam was raised in a time much different than that of a century ago. After the Altoran invasion, Earth was divided up into seven sections, each represented by a counsel member. Problems would be solved with meetings instead of wars, as was on Altoran. The counsel representative of the middle east was a very progressive woman who had visions of a time when equality and peace would rein supreme in her land.

With much coaxing, her section of the world slowly stepped into a new era. Gone were the days of war and fear, with a new dawn of peace and prosperity among them. Equality among genders and religion was finally realized, something that the world thought it would never see. Education became openly available for those who wished to seek it.

This is were Isam grew up, being taught from childhood that life and respect are the two most valuable aspects of his existence. Never should he take a life without costing himself great anguish, and never should he disrespect another based solely on his own, personal beliefs and preferences. With this thought process, he went to the school of IGSA at the youngest age possible, eighteen, to become a captain.

It was ten long years of school and training, climbing ranks, before he was able to leave Earth on his first long voyage, Captaining the Jubilee across the galaxy and back. Successful, he was given a one year break before being called back to duty
