I'll be going with this character myself. [Hider=Raz "Speedball" Veldt][center][img]http://i.imgur.com/bk5zpDX.jpg[/img] RAZ "SPEEDBALL" VELDT 25 | 5'10"| A+[/center] [Sub][b][color=darkgray] A P P E A R A N C E [/color] [/b][/sub] [I][Indent]An otherwise average John Doe with rather eccentric fashion sense, donning antique leather apparel such as a flight coat, aviator goggles, and a bomber mask when he engages in militia operations. Raz's brown hair is groomed in such a way that a large portion spikes out forward, even when he wears his mask. [/Indent][/I] [Sub][b][color=darkgray] P E R S O N A L I T Y [/color] [/b][/sub] [I][Indent]Optimistic, complacent, and a thrill seeker. Raz is an easily satisfied person who prefers cool theatrics and big hero moments over facing harsh reality.[/Indent][/I] [Sub][b][color=darkgray] B A C K G R O U N D [/color] [/b][/sub] [I][Indent]Born to native colonists of Eleos V that had moved to greener pastures, Raz had big dreams that were matched by his parents' big expectations. During his early years, Raz had developed an interest in being a pilot due to his father, who was unable to pursue this career while he was younger. While he did display a better-than-average proficiency in piloting, the praise he would receive were many and somewhat undeserved. This led to Raz thinking he was a natural talent that could not be hindered by any obstacle. By the time he was enrolled in an Earth Sphere approved military college, he couldn't keep up with the responsibilities required of him and was dishonorably discharged before getting anywhere near an officer's uniform. Without much to fall back on, Raz decided to return to Eleos V to live with his grandparents instead of confronting the people he had known for most of his life. Unfortunately, this life altering event had coincided with the much larger tragedy known as the Catastrophe War. This set of circumstances was fortunately the second chance that Raz needed, or so he thought.[/indent][/I] [Sub][b][color=darkgray] S K I L L S [/color][/b][/sub] [I][Indent]While he didn't officially become part of the ES' Armored Frame corps, Raz does have most of the training needed to be a rookie pilot such as space and terrestrial combat, along with firearm handling. Unfortunately, engagement tactics was the subject he had the most trouble with, as he preferred to fight up close for all the simulations he would find himself in.

He also has a vintage comic book collection, which is where he draws inspiration from for his alter ego.[/indent][/I][/Hider]
