There we are, finally finished. Character's Name: Alexander Cross Nicknames: Alex Gender: Male Age: 24 Appearance: [img=http://www.keptafterclass.onigiri.us/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/anime-smart-boy.jpg] Special Skills: Highly skilled programmer and engineer, basic combat training. Genetic Type: Coordinator Personality: Alexander tends towards a quieter demeanor, something not really helped by how much time he spends working. While he's actually very friendly once a conversation is struck, he isn't often the one to make conversation. He's almost always thinking, and will often have a new idea at unusual times, leading him to keep a running mental list of things to look into or ponder. Outside of the workplace, and even in it, he tends to have a relatively low-profile; In large part this is to avoid drawing attention to his status as a Coordinator. While it's not exactly a secret, it isn't something commonly known. History: All things considered, Alexander had a relatively normal childhood. His parents chose to make him a Coordinator so that their son would have the best chance at successful life that he could, but they also raised him with one very important lesson; He wasn't any better than anyone else. Whatever advantages his birth had given him, they didn't make him any better. Growing up in Orb, he didn't face too much persecution about being a Coordinator; He never made a big deal out of it, just in case anyone ever did object, but he wasn't too concerned either. He graduated school in good standing, unsurprisingly, and in fact had enrolled in more advanced engineering classes before he ever left high school. Both hardware and software fascinated him, so he learned everything about them that he could. Perhaps it should have been no surprise, then, that he applied to work for Morgenroete at the very first chance he got. Even with his qualifications, he worked a fairly low-level job at first. Basic maintenance, minor assignments, et cetera, et cetera. He worked as hard at them as he would anything else, however, and he caught the eye of more senior engineers. His biggest break came when he was tapped to do some software work for what was, unbeknownst to him, the G-Project under Erica Simmons. His work was impeccable, but that had an unintended consequence; Some of the officials commissioning the G-Project began to suspect a Coordinator was working on the proekct directly, and were none too pleased by it. Though Alexander was not aware of it, that was why he was suddenly taken away from his previous work and assigned to the Astray Project. Developed largely concurrently with the G-Project, the Astrays were meant for Orb's own military, though they were created with much the same knowledge as the GAT series. Alexander worked on much of their software and made it a point to be familiar with the hardware as well. When they were testing pilot candidates, he was one of those tested; However, since the Astrays were, ultimately, meant for use by Naturals, he was not surprised that the overseers preferred to use test pilots from the target demograhic. His familiarity with the systems nonetheless proved to be quite helpful in his control of the prototype. Other: Mobile Suit: MBF-P03 Astray Blue Frame List of Gundam/mobile suit's weapons: [i]"Igelstellung" 75mm Multi-Barrel CIWS[/i] Mounted in the Blue Frame's head are two "Igelstellung" 75mm multi-barrel CIWS guns. These light projectile weapons are used to intercept missiles and to destroy lightly armored vehicles, although it is classified as Anti Air. [i]Beam Saber[/i] Blue Frame is equipped with two back-mounted beam sabers for close combat. [i]Type 71 Beam Rifle[/i] The type 71 beam rifle is the standard ranged beam weapon of the Orb military. The beam rifle fires an energy beam that is highly effective against most targets, such as mobile suits, but is less effective against targets designed to take beam attacks, such as laminated armor or shields treated with an anti-beam coating. [i]Shield[/i] Blue Frame can hold a single physical shield for defense on its left arm. This is the same type of shield as used by Strike and Duel Gundam. [i]External connector[/i] A connector for attaching additional equipment to the back of the suit. It is similar in function to the hardpoint on the back of the Strike Gundam. The connector is exposed when the backpack is lowered to the back skirt armor.
