 _______________________________________________ D A T A Full Name - Percy Moore Callsign - Breechlock Age - 32 (b. Nov. 12, 2646) Birthplace - Last Hope, California Pilot Type - Sniper - P S Y C H E Master of None Up till a year ago, Percy's been doing any and all jobs tossed in his general direction and then some. He's a jack of all trades - he's dabbled in welding, woodworking, engineering, hunting (nothing bigger than a medium-sized dog, though), scrapping and scavenging, and probably more than that, even. Simply put, you give Percy a task (and a couple credits) and he'll figure out how to do what you asked him to do.. Probably. Though now he's an NC pilot first and foremost, he also has the more stable, consistent job as a quartermaster as something to do in the down-time between missions. He's mostly in charge upkeeping the weaponry, but he'll do whatever else is asked of him too. Well-Intentioned All things being equal, Percy's heart is in the right place. That doesn't mean every decision he makes is a good one, nor is every word from his mouth quite the right one, but he means well. He does the things he does out of love and concern for his fellow human. The road to hell is paved by good intentions, though. Dadly In having his daughter, he's learned patience, compassion, and how to enjoy the little things. He's also constantly learning what confidence is and what it looks like - not just for his daughter's sake, but his own as well. Also, dad jokes. So many dad jokes... A long, drawn out sigh and a "Daaaaad!" upon his awful jokes being spoken aloud is music to his ears. Unstable Percy already struggles with a high amount of emotional intensity and sensitivity as well as some flavor of generalized anxiety, but after his wife's death, the aftermath of such, and the more recent development of being Last Hope's sole NC pilot? His mental health's spiraled down the toilet. Even when he's supposedly relaxed, he's a very high strung and tense individual, always planning, always stressing, always thinking. The only coping mechanism he's got that seems to really work for him is smoking like a fuckin' freight train, but he tries to avoid that as much as possible. It's mostly for Ana's sake, of course, but Zach also bitches him out for it. "Fuck's sake, Pierce," he says, "You know that stink sticks to your clothes, right?" G E A R Silver wedding rings, x2 He was lucky to get Laura's before her body could be cremated. If he hadn't, he'd have absolutely nothing of hers with him. Her remains are back in Vegas, barred by a goddamn fucking fee. He wears his own band on his ring finger, and Laura's on his pinky. He rarely takes them off, and he'll sometimes fidget with them, twisting and turning them on his fingers. Datatool It's an older model that's got some wear and tear to it, but it works just fine! It's got holonovels, holovids, and a couple of time-killing games that Ana has all the top scores in, the little turd. The passcode is Ana's birthday - 8-1-5-7-0 Vegas City Pass Collecting dust in a bedside drawer, this is a painful and expensive reminder of the hellish times he spent in Las Vegas. Pistol A regular old pistol that fires regular old bullets. Percy's not too bad of a shot - not the best, but not bad. When not on his person, it's kept in a little wooden lockbox. He plans to eventually teach Ana how to shoot, but... Not yet. N E U R A L C O M B A T A N T Armor The Breechlock looks about as clumsy and awkward as its current pilot is in piloting it - the large, tanky frame of a vanguard wears armor that's old and dented where it wasn't outright replaced with sheets of metal too thin for what it was built to do. The mechanical bones and guts of the machine are visible where the replacement armor doesn't quite cover, and the paint still harbors scratches and scuffs where rust had to be chipped away. The poor attempt to cover imperfections and the swamp green color scheme it used to have with a bland, cheap gray is pretty plain to see as well. Percy has yet to really "put himself" in the NC, so to speak. He doesn't even do his own major maintenance, preferring to let someone who knows what they're doing crack Breechlock open. He'll plug up and help test things if he must, of course, but if he does anything more than that alone? He's afraid he'll break something, and repairing stupid mistakes is costly... Hands A semi-automatic thermal rifle with a scope for more precise aim. It fires as fast as he can pull the trigger. The faster he fires, though, the weaker the shot - he has to give the thing a chance to warm up if he wants that one shot takedown it's capable of. R E L A T I O N S Laura Moore His late wife. Though they had a relationship rife with argument and disagreement, there was also love, and passion, and devotion. Simply put, Percy loved Laura deeply, inside and out. She's been dead for six years now, though, taken from him and Ana far too soon. He isn't really aware of it consciously, but he's been harboring six fucking years of guilt, grief, and rage... Ana Moore His daughter. Percy is a devoted father - he loves Ana more than life itself. If the moment arose where he needed to maim - or even kill - to keep her safe, he would. He can be overprotective and smothering at times, which is most of the time, but especially the last week of every month. He'll go so far as to temporarily move her to his room for bed, that's how anxious and paranoid he gets. "As long as she's with me, everything is ok." Zach Young It's.. Complicated. Yes, they live together, raise Ana together, the bills are in both of their names, and they sometimes use each other's soap and end up smelling like each other, but they're NOT together, not like that. Zach is just someone Percy has grown to care deeply for and knows he can depend on, that's all. It's very much platonic, despite not looking it from the outside. James Lofgren It's her fault. It is all her fucking fault. Jackie Ducard Percy has actually never spoken to Jackie before - not personally. Before Laura died, she'd bring Percy along with her and Jackie on scrapping and scavenging jobs, and.. Well, ripping apart machines was hard, sweaty work that sometimes requires one to take off their shirt. Though Percy couldn't fathom trying to have a relationship at this point in time, he still gets flustered around Jackie. Luci Wilkes He's only heard of little Luci Wilkes through Ana, but from what she has told him? Luci's a bratty little shit. He doesn't like Luci, not even a little. Is it immature for an adult to dislike a child so much? Sure. If Ana doesn't like someone, though, then neither does he. Eddison Rayne The doctor that told him and Laura that there was nothing that could be done in Last Hope. The doctor that suggested that they could try to go to Las Vegas for help. The doctor who still, after six fucking years, looks at him with pity or sorrow or regret, or some combination of the three. Percy only tolerates him for Ana's sake - and even then, he'll get a second opinion from another doctor on a different day, if he can. You might call it doctor shopping, but Percy calls it preventing another goddamn tragedy. Kataraina Poux The one who does most of the work on Percy's NC. They're friendly with each other and get along just fine when they must interact, but they're good acquaintances at best. That said, he sees how Zach looks at her... and when he does, Percy absolutely teases him about it. Michael Emerson Not yet :) | Physical Details ◢ Percy, unlike the other pilots he's soon to meet, does not subscribe to a rigorous work-out routine, nor is he naturally prone to being thin. He's also got something of a sweet tooth, which he shares with his daughter. That said, with all the running around and lifting he does due to his secondary job as quartermaster, he's not totally out of shape either. When it comes to clothes, nine times out of ten he prioritizes comfort over color cohesion or looking good. His closet is basically t-shirts, flannels, sweatpants, and like.. two pairs of good jeans. Background Information ◢ AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Polaris Shift ◢ While Percy's had one instance of a Perfect Sync before, it won't be until the next time he hits that sweet spot that he'll feel the effects. In Percy's case, the Polaris Shift is a severe case of personality bleeding, which could be categorized as a case of Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD). Dissociation, memory lapses, the sudden onset of uncharacteristic behavior, and visual/auditory hallucinations are all symptoms. The visual hallucinations specifically are what scare Percy into trying to get information from whoever's willing to give it. When Percy is in the dissociated state, he has no doubt in his mind that he's the previous pilot of Breechlock, Michael Emerson. So much so that he takes on Emerson's mannerisms and even gains his memories until the dissociation stops. When it does, whether it takes a few minutes or a few days, Percy has little to no recollection of what Emerson may or may not have done. Eventually, he'll end up losing all sense of either identity, becoming an amalgamate of both. Personal Mission ◢ tldr: KEEP ANA SAFE |
