@Akayaofthemoon Assistant Doctor then? Not co-Doctor since Nate isn't that great at the whole putting people together. (One step below your doctor). I just don't want him stuck in the lab.
Name: Dr. Nathan Buchanan AKA: Nate, Doc, Victor(Back on Earth) Age: 25 Race: Human Appearance:
Faction: Marauder Role in Team:Genetic researcher/ Assistant Doctor, ~He got his doctorate from Cambridge in Genetic Studies but he can still patch someone up should need be. He also likes to go on trips with the crew. Bio:
Nathan Buchanan was born to a rich family in New York City. They had made a good chunk of change through intergalactic trade. The Buchanan's made their fortune trading in a few different avenues. Many of them were far from legal but no one ever seemed to care. The Buchanan's were old money and that meant old friends and old friends always looked away from illegal activities. The whole family had been taught that being rich meant that you could get away with anything.
Ever since he was young, Nate loved scientific pursuits. He always loved doing little experiments. Since his parents were always distant at best, Nate was raised by the family servants. Their influence taught him to be kind to everyone and taught him to be self sufficient. He learned how to cook and he still loves to cook. He excelled in school and was always the top of his class when it came to academic pursuits. He enjoyed being the best and tried to appear that he did not care for anyone else. In his senior year, he met a very important friend. Claud Yang was not exactly the brightest guy in the world but he did have a skill to keep Nate from doing anything too insane. The two of them became quite a pair and were nearly inseparable. Claud could charm anyone into buying a bridge. Nate used his family's influence and wealth to continue his studies of genetics.
When they graduated, the pair were both accepted in the Genetics Program at Cambridge. It had the best program on the planet so of course they had to go. As soon as they arrived, they gained a bit of a reputation. The rumors were that they were up to something wicked in the abandoned building that they called home. The rumor gained them both nicknames. Nate was called Victor and Claud was called Igor. As usual the two ignored it. Nate wanted to create usable hybrids for the Earth governments. He wanted to design new animals or animals that no one had ever seen. His plan was to design living weapons for the the army. Mother nature was quite good at living weapons. His first creation was a larger version of the Alpheidae shrimp (pistol shrimp). It didn't work since there was no real use for it outside of the water. The American Navy bought the creature to protect what navy bases they still had. His next project was to make a slime mold that could be used to catch criminals. It was simple but effective. It was nothing flashy but Buchanan & Yang Laboratories finally had a bit of fame under it's belt.
One night a few years later, Nate decided he wanted to make a human hybrid even though it was illegal. He needed a project to get the fame he so desperately desired. Like most of his family, he thought the rules did not apply. Something went wrong and there was an explosion in the lab that killed Claud. Nate was arrested for murder and his crimes against nature. He was given an option of either going to jail for life or joining one of the criminal crews. He chose the second option and has been with the Marauders for almost two years now. He loves his new family and all the freedom he has finally gained.
Personality: For a scion of a wealthy Earth family, Nate is quite kind. He enjoys helping people even if his methods are far from normal. If there is an issue with repairs, Nate will try to make some sort of creature to try and help. He loves all kinds of critters and loves to learn about anything even if there is no chance he can do it. His favorite type of critter, as he calls his creations, are the ones that do not seem to have any use. He has a bird he created and named Homer that he keeps around the lab just cause he likes how he looks. He is always looking for some new creature to use for a critter. His lab is a messy wreck filled with papers and holding tanks with all manner of things. He usually sleeps near his lab. Weapon(s) : An energy pistol that he barely knows how to use. He definitely needs someone to help him use his pistol. Star-fighter?: Not a chance. He is deathly afraid of flying himself anywhere. The Monroe is good enough for him. Family/Relationship?: His family disowned him after he was arrested. He tries to be friendly with everyone on the ship. Other: He loves to go on away missions since there is a chance for new animals to add to his menagerie of critters. He only sleeps about five hours a night.
It was a beautiful morning in the royal city of Juneau. The sun was shining as it always did this time or year. For a few months a year, Pelanor was covered in complete sun light. Anyone who was not from Pelanor usually did not get a lot of sleep during these months. However, people like the Prince managed to get a full night's sleep. He was currently getting read for the trip.
"Rogers! I need to bring that with me! I need to bring that microscope!" Prince John yelled at his tutor turned second father, Rogers. They had been having arguments like this for years. They usually boiled to stating certain things were inappropriate for a future ruler. Usually this lecture was reserved for when John climbed up the palace onto the roof or whenever he tried to bring some wild animal into the palace.
"You do not need to bring a microscope there! What in heaven's name would you need it for?" Rogers countered as he pulled the offending instrument away from his young charge. "You need clothes and such! " He said as he turned his back to go into the closet. John quickly put his tool kit into his suitcase and hid it under some clothes. He looked away trying to look innocent when Rogers came back and placed more clothes in the suitcase. Jack quickly put on a simple buttoned shirt and dress pants. He was not very flashy
Once they were done the pair walked outside of the palace. As usual, the King did not come out to meet them. He had been spending more and more time alone in his rooms. That meant that John had to do more and more work for the kingdom. This betrothal was a great way to help his people. A good alliance was definitely what they needed. He did not like the idea of arranging a marriage but he was desperate.
With a hug from Rogers, John was on his way to the airport. From there he got on the plane and headed south. John quickly began to read a book he had picked up about the kingdom he was heading for. He had always made sure that he was prepared for just about anything that could happen. After five hours of just about nothing, they landed. John put his book away and set off towards the waiting car.
John got out of the limo bearing the flag of his kingdom on he door. He looked around and whistled softly to himself at the scale of the palace. It was nothing like what they had back home. He confidently walked up to the family of royals and bowed deeply to.
"Thank your majesties for inviting me here." He said to the King and Queen. He remembered Rogers' teachings about being polite. He did not like doing this but his kingdom required it.
His focus turned towards his betrothed, Raven. They had met only once before when his father had sent him south as part of a peace conference.
"Raven, it is wonderful to see you again. You look beautiful." He said before he gave her a nod and walked off. He did not want to get in the way of everyone else. He could talk to her later.He walked off and leaned against one of the nearby walls.

Kingdom History: Some facts about Pelanor:
Founded almost 150 years by a society of scientists wanting to stay away from the world. So they went as far north as possible. They purchased the Alaskan penisula and part of the northern lands.
Since there is not very many valuable resources, they focus on using what little they have. Displays of wealth are seen as wasteful. The royal palace is nothing to fancy. It was designed to double as a meeting spot for Senate as well as housing the royal family.
Pelanor is a constitutional monarchy. Based off the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It binds both the people and the royalty.
The nation's only truly old fashioned traditions are the ones from the local Inuit culture. The Inuit had helped the first settlers survive their first winter and the settlers descendants have always helped the natives.
The Royal gardens were created by King Eric to make his wife feel more comfortable in the north. His son always seems to be walking around there.
