Name: Elena Berezina Age: 30 and 1/2

Gender: Female Height: 5' 6"

Weight: 145 lbs.

Appearance:
A kind-hearted, pretty redheaded face atop a slim, average figure. Beneath the clothing, however, there is little fat; she's wiry and tough, almost entirely unmarred from her times overseas beyond her rough hands, a few hidden scars, and a steel and determination in an otherwise cheerful and curious stare. She's kinda short, and many wouldn't think she's a threat, but she's okay with it.

Primary Role: Security Secondary Role: Medic Has experience with: Computers



Background:
Elena was born and raised to be intelligent and upstanding, even as she became a tomboy. Born into a military-minded family, where her father served, and his father, and so on, ever since the Civil war, it's practically the family's lifeblood to go, serve America, and then start a family. Each generation saw a more or less identical set of children- two boys, or one boy and one girl. His father had a sister, who went on to become lawyer, while he worked for Lockheed Martin. Growing up, Elena found herself the older sister to the next in line for the Berezina military tradition.

However, her father wanted two boys- and, having failed in that, he decided to try and raise Elena to join in on the male's tradition of joining the military.

She blazed through school, failing to make top 10% but nonetheless being smart enough to hold her own, and blazed her way through university, graduating with a degree in Information Technology, before immediately enlisting to become a Navy Corpsman. Despite being well-behaved, if lively, during her school years, her gung-ho side revealed itself as she trained to become, in all intents and purposes, to become a Marine with Navy Medic training, not only becoming respected by the Marines that she trained with, served with, and later sometimes saved, but also talked about.

Eight years serving actively with the Marine Core all over the world, she was honorably discharged and went home. In an effort to get over the lack of action, of the total lack of exciting things, she set out to just DO things! She visited Jurassic World, and on that very day, everything went to hell.

It didn't take more than a day for her to sign up for the Masrani mission, after being contacted. It seems that one of the Marines she knew in her time had joined up, and recommended her.

Accepted, you can go ahead and post it to the characters tab.

Also, I apologize in advance for being all but absent today, I've been cooking all day and will be until the Super Bowl, at which point I imagine I will end up drinking away my sorrow as Tom Brady crushes my hopes and dreams.

@Drache
I wasn't aware we had a strict post order. I was simply referring to that unspoken rule of wait-two-posts-before-posting-again sort of thing- for someone else besides myself or Confuzzler to do somethin.

Most people tend to give others a chance to post before moving forward. I don't see why this RP should be any different.

I wouldn't mind starting when the boat is getting close to the island. We've sort of done introduction posts for everyone. It would be good to have some interactions between the characters before they get on the island so they all start to get a feel for each other, ie.: who gets along which ones are going to clash.

I'm also a big proponent of posting order as it keeps everyone in the game engaged equally and basically works as a roll call every time you go around.

Arcan or Cypher as most know him as is a rather skinny yet muscular man with a what you would call a very defined appearance. He Stands at a solid 6 foot 2 inches with a fairly toned body, does not possess much fat and is mostly muscle or lack thereof. He has platinum dyed blonde hair which he usually keeps messy and unkempt but from time to time he will slick it back for important events. He has quite defined cheekbones with a rather unique facial structure. His skin is usually tanned as he often finds himself outdoors a lot but can be quite pale naturally. From time to time he can look quite rough depending on his current job but usually likes to keep himself well kept. Being more of an extreme paleontologist, he has developed a taste for black and red colors. He can usually be found dressed in either one or the other or both at the same time preferring to distinguish himself from what he considers tea cup hunters or in other words your classic shorty short rich looking Paleontologists.



35

Male

6'2"

195 lbs


Dinosaur Expert


Arcan does not tend to carry a lot on him considering he tends to go more free formed then most and does not like being too weighed down however he does carry basic items that can keep him alive and nourished including:

- 2 large water bottles
- 1 spare set of clothing he can switch between
- An assortment of non perishable personal rations
- An old leather bound journal with a pen
- An specialized archeology set (i.e. brush, chisel, hammer, etc.)
- Shaving kit
- A length of paracord
- Small LED Flashlight
- 1 357 Magnum with a small box of extra ammunition


Arcan Romanov also know as Alan Marsh legally changed many years prior was born in a small town in the middle of nowhere to what most would call an average set of parents just trying to make their way in the world. Life was simple for Alan he was by all accounts just an average kid who went to school got less then perfect grades, had some friends, got in a little trouble but nothing too strenuous. It was around his teenage years though that Alan began to display his displeasure for his small town upbringing and the fact that he was beginning to want more then the simple life he was living. It got to the point where Alan became troubled and eventually he left at sixteen without so much as a word to his parents and they never were able to find him.

Not a lot is known as to what happened to Alan in those years between sixteen and twenty his parents had just assumed he went to join a circus or something rather then be with them however sometime five to six years later man named Arcan Romanov entered the scene and was quickly making a name for himself as to what he called an extreme paleontologist. Unlike most normal Paleontologists Arcan took the more Indian Jones type of Paleontology and dove into Archeology as well. He was on the forefront of some of the most unique finds the world ever knew, finds that were incredibly dangerous to acquire. If there was an area riddled with danger and a good find you were sure to see Arcan there to take it. Most called him a treasure hunter or even an Archeologist rather then a Paleontologist however his one true love was without a doubt the past an if it was dinosaur bones or a priceless antique he was interested in it.

Arcan rose to fame with his fearless adventures into unknown territories and unearthing some of the oldest finds, he became known soon as Cypher after his cracking of an ancient puzzle that was supposedly impossible to crack. Arcans only and other claim to was fame was without a doubt his love for dinosaurs, most wouldn't think it given his rather dangerous choice of life style but he was one of the most intelligent when it came to dinosaurs. It was an obsession if there ever was one, even more so then his need to dive into dangerous places to unearth great finds. He is the forefront runner on dinosaurs and even spent a great deal of time at Jurassic World studying the creations themselves and comparing them to the originals. Some would say if one could know what a dinosaur was thinking it would be him. It was no real shocker that when he was offered a rather lucrative sum to travel to the now dangerous Jurassic World that he accepted the invitation not for the money but for the adventure and the chance to to test his wits and knowledge against the very animals that got him into his line of work in the first place.
