[b]Bio:[/b] [color=gray] Born in Topeka, Kansas July 13, 2021, and thrust upon the age of space colonization. Just a year before his birth they announced the efforts to join hands across the globe and pursue space exploration. Like most children living in the outskirts of Topeka, he always had his head in the clouds. Dreaming of going beyond his hometown and doing something spectacular with his life. The quickest way out he found, upon graduating high school, was the military. At 17, he began to push for them to receive him into the Army as early as possible. It wasn't moments after graduation that he was already preparing to leave his family and loved ones behind. Serving as an ammo logistics specialist, he spent most of his career being a "BB counter", as they were called. Learning about different things that went "boom, bang, zoom" and anything in between. It interested him to no end. Fast forward to his promotion to Sergeant First Class in the Army, he had just reached his 7 year mark and he was no longer as satisfied as the child of old. One thing that had taken the world by storm though was the constant pursuit of space colonization. At that point, Sergeant Riker took it upon himself to diversify his portfolio in hopes of making himself more of a candidate in the space programs being created. He began enrolling himself in classes discussing different interstellar equipment, mining tools, and anything that might need a proper eye kept on during travel. After years of training, networking, and constant badgering of any Lunar recruiter he could get his hands on, he finally got his opportunity. In 2045, he left his military service and joined up with SpaceEX as a Manned Spaceflight Engineer. With his prior experience being in explosive weaponry, taking care of the maintenance and logistics of mining equipment, parts for ships, bits and bits of research pieces used at EDEN was a little less stressful. 5 years, that felt to short, have past since he began his life with EDEN, and he couldn't have been happier with his choice. [/color] [b]Personality:[/b] [color=gray]Riker is a natural joker. He understands that these situations are extremely serious at times but likes to bring light to those situations with a little humor. However, he has the capacity to be professional at any time it is needed to be.[/color] [b]Other:[/b] [color=gray]Music is his biggest hobby. The Ukulele is his pride and joy and he will always take it on long flights to help relax the mood of himself or anyone else.[/color][/hider] [/quote] [quote=@LetsFly] [hider=EDEN Passport - E. Stewart] [img]http://pre12.deviantart.net/93f0/th/pre/i/2015/160/f/b/ekaterina_by_livingloudphoto-d8wljuw.jpg[/img] [b]Name:[/b][color=gray] Erica Stewart [/color] [b]Age:[/b] [color=gray] 28 [/color] [b]Sex:[/b][color=gray] Female [/color] [b]Nationality:[/b] [color=gray] United States (of Irish/German descent) [/color] [b]Occupation:[/b] [color=gray] Doctor / Former United States Air Force [/color] [b]ID no.:[/b] [color=gray]Not Yet Assigned[/color] [b]Bio:[/b] [color=gray] Erica was born in Seattle, Washington to a pair of physicists. Growing up in a world of academic prowess and science, she took a particular interest in space travel at a very early age. During high school, she competed in robotics competitions, and entered college with interest in engineering. However, while working to tweak the mechanics of biomedical equipment that a local hospital was planning to improve in its laboratories, she discovered a whole new area of science: medicine. From that point forward, she pursued a career as a doctor, specializing in biomedical advancement (such as creating artificial organs, internal prosthetics, brain-mapping, etc.) During her residency, she made the decision to enlist in the Air Force, deciding it was the best way to continue practicing medicine while still being surrounded by engineering and staying close to aircraft advancements. It was through this that she was approached by NASA and the SpaceEX program, who were searching for individuals of various professions to begin the process of colonizing the moon. Having no family and no other commitments, she accepted. Erica was within the first group to be sent out, and while her main objective is to monitor the health of everyone else and run tests, she has also taken it as an opportunity to conduct her own personal studies, keeping a detailed record of the way the new environment interacts with human biology, as well as psychology. [/color] [b]Personality:[/b] [color=gray] Erica was raised in a very strict household, and has no time for bullshit. She has a very strictly-business attitude to everyone she interacts with, and can at times come off as too serious, uptight, or even condescending. While she values human interaction from a psychological standpoint, she doesn't like to make small talk, and makes no time for it. Growing up very focused on her studies and academics, she isn't very well versed in the way of socializing, and although she has a strong personality, tends to keep to herself not only due to her analysis of others, but due to insecurity. She is also very much a stickler for the rules, and fails to see why people get upset when she calls them out for doing something they aren't supposed to. The way she sees it, they were all sent here for one purpose: Discovery. Their duty is simply to check things out and report back the results, for the future of mankind, rather than for themselves.

Hackett] [img]http://i1070.photobucket.com/albums/u500/smileyjaws94/new%20earth%20engineer_zps9t68jvuc.jpg[/img] [b]Name:[/b][color=gray] Thomas 'Tommy' Hackett[/color] [b]Age:[/b] [color=gray]36[/color] [b]Sex:[/b] [color=gray]Male[/color] [b]Nationality:[/b] [color=gray]Irish[/color] [b]Occupation:[/b] [color=gray]Flight Engineer[/color] [b]ID no.:[/b] [color=gray]TH1667906[/color] [b]Bio:[/b] [color=gray]Tommy was born an only child to working class parents of the generation birthed during or around the time of Ireland's 2009 crash and recession. From a young age he was fascinated by Outer Space, books, documentaries, fiction, science-fiction - the topic was something he could just never tire of talking or thinking about. When asked by his elders[/color] [i]"What do you want to be when you grow up?"[/i][color=gray] The answer was almost always the same with a little variation in his teens.[/color] [i]"I want to be an astronaut, I want to go to space."[/i] [color=gray]Tommy was always a bright kid. His mother, Judith (affectionately known as Jodie) had always called Tommy their 'miracle' on account of how up until his conception they believed they could not have children. In secondary school getting into the wrong crowd and through the almost ritual rite of 'boys will be boys', Tommy's grades began to slip and his record as a trouble-maker began to grow. Fighting, use of substances on school grounds, verbal and physical threatening of teachers were a few of the marks against him. Coming into his senior year at school it seemed like Tommy was going to be 'asked to leave' effectively being expelled without the hassle of going through the BoE (Board of Education). Thanks to the good graces of his Technology & Workshop teacher who fully believed in Tommy's potential, he was saved from fate with the knowledge that in the time it would take them to process his expulsion he'd have already finished school with his results. Thomas senior, young Tommy's father had always had his own problems, alcoholism, drugs and gambling to scratch at the surface of deep psychological issues but he was always someone Tommy looked up to in some respects. He was a hard-worker, a good father on occasion he was sober, a provider and a man who maybe with a push in the right direction could have been more. In those ways, Tommy wanted to be like his father and go on to achieve greater things, truly spectacular things. The realization came the night he nearly left school forever, sitting across from his dad at the kitchen table, drinking and passing a joint as they did many nights. Tommy knuckled down for the rest of his senior year and stuck his head into books harnessing his natural talent and intellect and capacity for learning. He left school with relatively impressive results went on to study Mechanical Engineering in the capital, Dublin's Institute of Technology. It was during his third year of the course that his work placement for 6 months lined up a series of events and acquaintances that realize Tommy's lifelong and childhood dream. Reaching space. The year he finished and graduated from his course, 2035 was right around the time Terra I & II had been successfully launched and landed, the first idea of building a base on the moon had been realized. Tommy secured a job working for the ESA (European Space Agency) as a Systems & Mechanical Engineer mainly dealing with design, construction and use of machines among other things that would be taken to the moon or used to get there. It was only a couple of years later before Tommy was approached with an opportunity of a lifetime, to join those on EDEN as the base had been dubbed as a Flight Engineer, his background in mechanical engineering, short but interesting experience at the ESA and handyman capabilities made him an ideal candidate and after three more years of preparation in 2040 Tommy Hackett arrived at EDEN a fully fledged astronaut, a dream he thought for the longest time had been lost with childhood. Tommy has spent the last decade on EDEN.[/color] [b]Personality:[/b] [color=gray]Something of a reserved introvert, Tommy can seem at a slower pace when interacting socially with others, preferring to think before he speaks or acts. Never the type to wake up and spring into action this has become a bit of a forced trait closer to a habit since coming to EDEN. Like running, for many it can take time to put on their jogging shoes, feet feel heavy as if they'll never get moving but when you pick up pace nothing will stop you. Tommy is not an unsocial creature, some would argue it's the Irish in him and he just can't help it. His accent and potatoes often being the running joke at his expense. A friendly face and smile for just about anybody is Tommy's way of being, while it may take him a little while to warm up to you, he's a loyal and honest friend.[/color] [b]Other:[/b] [color=gray]N/A[/color][/hider] [/quote] [quote=@Grammatik] [hider= EDEN Passport - C. Issac] [img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/03/f8/6c/03f86c137f90a822ef26d7a516221ef7.jpg[/img] [b]Name:[/b][color=gray]Casey Issac[/color] [b]Age:[/b] [color=gray]25[/color] [b]Sex:[/b][color=gray]F[/color] [b]Nationality:[/b] [color=gray]Polish[/color] [b]Occupation:[/b] [color=gray]Mission Specialist[/color] [b]ID no.:[/b] [b]Bio:[/b] [color=gray]Casey is the middle child of three, her father is a journalist back on Earth and her mother a Nurse. Her social status could be described as middle class although she does not personally agree with a class system - one of the things she likes about her new home. Casey's childhood and adolescent life was spent mostly online. She had her history of friends and boyfriends and was particularly active sexually in her teens but when given the option she'd much rather spend her time online in second life type games and forums and grew an interest in conspiracies and potential for life in the universe. One of the things that drew her to an interest in space and particularly life out there were the many conspiracies she read about the moon; a faked landing, music on the dark side of the moon, the moon actually being inhabited by aliens. While she enjoyed the fantasy she saw in many of these another pass time she developed was debunking said conspiracies. Doing well in school she went on to major in Bio-Engineering at university in East Germany and never returned to Poland since. She made her way to EDEN through SpaceEX where she worked on numerous classified projects as well as some more mundane research from anything to medical to botanical before leaving Earth. She has only been on EDEN for 6 months, having being among the last to have steadied out the population and losses from death there. [/color] [b]Personality:[/b] [color=gray][center][I]Ambitious - Reliable - Impulsive - Boring[/i][/center] Casey is very goal orientated and is often perceived as boring on the surface. Ambition for discovery fuels her and she prides herself in her punctuality and reliability. She has a bit of a wild side that can come out among those close to her but is generally a level-headed down to earth kind of gal. When working on a project that requires teamwork she is a good player but if it is her work she is known to be bossy in order to get results.[/color] [b]Other:[/b] [color=gray]Polish is Casey's native tongue but she speaks German and English fluently and conversational French, she can also speak a little Klingon from a previous relationship with a Star Trek enthusiast.[/color] [/hider] [/quote] [quote=@Zora][hider= EDEN Passport - J. Felix] [img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/8a/bb/2b/8abb2bda3d2d5d770f86782f099fb315.jpg[/img] [b]Name:[/b] [color=gray]Julian Jack Felix(Prefers just Julian or Jack)[/color] [b]Age:[/b] [color=gray]27[/color] [b]Sex:[/b] [color=gray]Male[/color] [b]Nationality:[/b] [color=gray]Italian-American (Born in Italy)[/color] [b]Occupation:[/b] [color=gray]Systems Engineer[Computer Science](Haking, coding, decoding, overriding systems, and more)[/color] [b]ID no.:[/b] [color=gray]JF39479027[/color] [b]Bio:[/b] [color=gray] Julian was born in Pompeii Italy on May 24, 2023. Though three years after his birth, he moved to America. Going to American schools from preschool to fifth grade. His parents then got too busy to pay attention to their 'little sweetheart' they shipped him off the Private Academy in Europe somewhere. Which he went from fifth grade to the end of high school. They had many classes and Julian was always interested in Coding, hacking, game making, and other things along those lines. As well at the private school, he was sent to Julian was allowed to work mostly at his own rate since it was a college based like-program. Julian finished high school one and half years early in all AP classes. Which led him to go to the top Computer Science school in the world. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). That caused him to get a job at NASA. From then on he has been into the computer and space life. He has helped code a bunch of things for NASA. Getting bored at NASA wasn't the best thing they started moving Julian closer and closer to the back as he noticed they were letting robots that only could get controlled with a type of robotic engineer degree he didn't have. He was sent an email as he checked it out it was from SpaceEX though he ignored it for weeks lying to himself on how he loved his job. He was that person why to change a thing type of guy. Finally one day he realized he seemed pathetic and sick with this job. He finally opened the email and read it. Julian knew SpaceEX was another thing like NASA though it could be better than NASA. Julian quickly signed the application and filled out everything they wanted him too. The opportunity made it so he changed jobs from NASA to SpaceEX as a Computer Science worker in 2048 and has worked there every since. [/color] [b]Personality:[/b] [color=gray]Julian is a very optimistic guy. Though some people just say it's because he's stubborn like his father. Mostly a laid back character Julian does have a cocky side to him. He can be a bit aggressive with words if you push at him. As well if you say he can't do something he will work on it to show you that you were wrong. Other than being stubborn, optimistic and driven. Julian is a goody, gentle guy that can relate to people on an emotional level when their sad or mad. He's very understanding most of the time. Julian grew up having a mostly unbiased mind. He never takes sides. He rather looks at both sides understand them sides then tell the two what he thinks instead of making enemies. Julian can be a very sarcastic man which can cause people to get offended sometimes.[/color] [b]Other:[/b] [color=gray]Julian has a few hobbies...which include basic things. Reading, cooking and having deep full-hearted talks with people. Also, you might always see Julian with a cup of tea in his hand. A few facts about Julian is he can be very jumpy, his hands shake all the time even when he's calm, and when he's sitting down one of his legs are always bouncing.[/color] [/hider][/quote] [/hider]
