[quote=@Cmmelody] Here's the submission [hider=Quartermaster] [center][img]https://i.pinimg.com/236x/00/4e/27/004e2702c9167da78841473556798c5e.jpg[/img][/center] [center][h2]Evie Lu[/h2][/center] [b][u]Gender:[/u][/b] Female [b][u]Age:[/u][/b] 27 Earth years [b][u]Appearance:[/u][/b] A tiny young woman with a very short height of 4’ 9”. Usually spotted wearing the working clothes of the Arcandian working crew, carrying a big bag almost larger than herself, and always seem to be in a hurry. She usually wears a smile on her face, but what that smile means is often up to interpretation. It can be genuine but sometimes people can feel the malice seeping through the otherwise completely polite gesture. [b][u]Personality:[/u][/b] At the first glance, Evie seems to be a person who is easy to be friends with. She always maintains a friendly attitude and rarely raises her voice. But this is just a mask she developed from dealing with all kinds of assholes she met in her line of work. In actuality, she is the type of person who holds grudges for a long time, and remembers everything people did to her no matter how small. When the opportunity arrives, she can be quite fierce in her vengeance. Evie is a believer in planning for the future and hates people who waste the resources in unnecessary endeavors. Contrary to popular belief, she is actually proud of her short height because it’s the mark of people’s endurance and adaptability to the harsh gravity of her motherland. At the core she is still a proud Soteirian no matter how far away she is from home. Evie is also very superstitious, having experienced a tragedy once in her life. It is not uncommon to see her praying for the good result in harvest or praying for safety, especially when in the middle of combat or in a life or death situation.

Also able to predict the time of inventory runout to some extend - Basic firearms knowledge and how to take care of the equipment.

[b][u]Personal Belongings/Equipment:[/u][/b] - Lucky charm given to her by her parents - Picture of her with her first boss and mentor - Personal laptop computer - USF standard pistol - Objects of mystical and spiritual origins [b][u]Background:[/u][/b] Evie was born in Kore Soteira, the planet of data and eccentric seasons, far away from the solar system. Since her parents are among the first to set foot on this planet, she is considered the first bunch of the second generation, and the first native born one. She got an education from the USF base where her parents work and started her career as an assistant supplies management there. Last year she finally completed her training in space management and was reassigned to one of the transport ships on the Soteira route. Unfortunately for her, the captain of that ship makes some serious error that ends up destroying the ship, and hundreds of people in the process. Maybe because of her excellence in maintaining the ship’s lifesaving equipment that saved many lives during said tragedy, she got nominated for the USF latest and most ambitious space expiration program. Now she is the furthest away from the homeland she has grown to love. [b][u]Miscellaneous:[/u][/b] Someone in the crew has found many straw dolls in the room of their quartermaster while fetching some items for her. It is just an item for good luck right? RIGHT? [/hider] [hider=Planet: Kore Soteira] [u][b]Planet name:[/b][/u] Kore Soteira (Commonly referred to as Soteira) [u][b]History:[/b][/u] Formerly known as [url=https://science.nasa.gov/exoplanet-catalog/gj-514-b/]Gliese 514 b[/url] before the age of galactic expansion and within the distance of around 25 light years from the solar system, it is one of the more remote settlements in the federation. While the settlement of this planet is a recent thing, its availability as a home to humanity has been speculated and confirmed even as far back as the last century. The name of this planet came from the Queen of the underworld in Greek mythology, who famously got adducted and cause the change of seasons. 'Kore' also means 'Maiden' which is a nod to the planet's placement in the Virgo constellation [u][b]Planetary characteristics:[/b][/u] Mass: Minimum mass of at least 5.2 Earth masses. Orbital Period: 140.4 days. Orbital Distance: 0.422 AU from its star. Orbit Shape: The orbit is highly elliptical (eccentric). Host Star: The planet orbits an M-type star named Gliese 514. Kore Soteira is known as the land of extreme hot and cold. It spends 3 quarters of the time in winter and the last quarter in extreme hot summer. This is due to its unique orbital that moves in and out of the dwarf star’s heat emitting range. [u][b]Life and custom in Soteira:[/b][/u] The most important time of the year for people living here is, of course, the summer. It is when the ice melts into water and most crops can grow without relying on too much expensive technology. Their most important festivals include ‘The Last Snow Festival’ which celebrates the coming of summertime, ‘The Lost Month’ which is the time when Soteira orbits outside the heat zone, thus making it too cold for most people to work, it is also their planetary holiday month. [u][b]Industry and role in the federation[/b][/u]: Despite being a remote planet, Soteira is considered the federation’s leader in AI technology and data systems solely because of one thing: the extreme coldness. It is one of the few habitable planets that can maintain the temperature suitable to operate the quantum computer without spending too many resources in keeping people alive. Its signature extreme seasons also attract some tourists who want to experience something novel, especially during the early summer when the ice melts. [/hider] [/quote] Accepted
