heh, so nice to see this place has betas to XD

also do I need to wait for the field set up an all that?
Alexis giggled a bit as she watched a few of the others start battles of their own "Understandable, and I'm sure it'll happen again sooner, rather then later." she said with a grin "Tiss the nature of our hobby is it not?" she said as she spotted a system not yet in use. "Shall we?" Alexis said as she walked over to the Battle system in question.
Alexis nodded, grabbed her jacket, tied it around her midsection like a belt, picked up the Strike Freedom, slipped it into one of the pockets, and set out for the mess hall.

She went right for the food when she got to the mess hall, though she took a few moments to take in what was available before deciding.
Alexis looked at the Strike Freedom, then back to Dani "Your gonna make me tune it for battle aren't you ..." She said flatly. Alexis knew how much a 'minor' tweak like that could effect the outcome of a battle, and she really didn't want to devote time to tuning a suit she didn't like, at the same time though...

'Oh come on, you can't hold bad ... ok ... horrid writing against a Gundam, take it out for a spin when you get it finished, I bet you'll like it' Rachel's voice echoed in her mind, in that semi smug way Rachel tended to be when she thought she was right about something.

"On second thought, I think it'll be fine as a straight build, this time anyway. We'll see how it goes and I'll go from there." The PA announced the mess hall was open just as she finished her sentence. "Shall we?"
Alexis snickered at Dani comment about the Gundam Alex "Yeah, whats really sad its really is the first time I've gotten that one" She started as she took the Musha from Dani to have a look. "Dozens of kits built and just now getting to the one with my name" Alexis finished looking it over and handed the Musha back to Dani. "Nice build gunpla though, though from the look of it I'll be bringing the Strike Freedom into battle sooner rather then later. The only other one I have ready to go is my main gunpla, and I've won official tournaments with that bad-boy." Alexis said as she pulled the boxed kits from the bag. There was the Alex, and a G-Self she'd picked up on a lark. "Could throw one of these together for it, but eh ... i got these for my collection, not battle."
"Alexis" She replied as Dani rolled over to the nightstand "Thanks, it's not my main though, and to be honest, I kinda don't like the Gundam it self, but a good friend gave it to me so I brought it along." Alexis said as she mulled over a spar "I might break it out for something if the damage level is set low, D or C, just to see how it handles, and sure, we can spar after lunch."
Alexis took her jacket off and tossed it on her bed, the 'Celestial Being' emblem on the right shoulder landing facing her new roommate, notable the emblem was modified to have the normal emblem seen in the show, but with 7 crossed swords behind it, 4 on the top, 3 on the bottom. "I kind eased into it my self" She said as she pulled a box out of her bag, a box that was revealed to be holding a Strike Freedom, which she set up on her night stand. "First the shows, then building Gunpla then battling."
Alexis didn't head straight for her room, first thing she did was find a spot with some recent reception and call her brother, and ended up talking to him for a like 10 minutes before heading back to her room to unpack.

When she got there she was a little surprised to find the door locked, she didn't remember locking it, but shrugged it off and used the key she'd been given earlier to unlock the door and get in, and much to her surprise found some one in the room, at the work station, working on what looked like a Guntank. "Um ... Hi?" She said as she looked the person over. "Wasn't aware I was going to have a room mate, cool wheel chair by the way." she said as she set about getting her stuff situated.
Alexis followed this Instructor Miles as he lead them through the campus. 'I'm SO getting a big ass steak later...' she thought as they passed the mess hall, she took note of the workshop though, that seemed like it'd be a good place to talk to others about ideas, to help her get over her 'wall'. The tour ended in the Battle System room, which was just that, a room full of battle systems. It looked like it had a viewing area up top to, handy if she just wanted to take in a match.
Name: Alexis Voll

Age: 25

Gender: Female

Appearance: Long brown hair blue eyes an light skin. Alexis stands about 5 11 is in general just average looking in terms of build and looks. She general keeps her hair braided and
wears glasses for reading or building due to poor 'close' vision.

Clothing wise she is very 'jeans and t-shirt', though she generally wears pants a size or two to big so she doesn't feel like she's being choked by them. She also has a plain black leather jacket with 'Celestial Being's emblem embroidered on the shoulder that she got as a gift from her brother.

Nationality: American

Backstory: Alexis got her start with Gundam thanks to her brother, Damian, who got introduced to it via the legendary first run of Toonami, with Gundam Wing, 8th MS team and G-Gundam, as well as Gundam SEED later, and kept following it off and on over the years. Damian, while still a fan eventually drifted from it due to life getting in the way and just gave the DVDs he'd gotten for Wing, SEED, 00 and several 'spin offs' like 8th MS team, Stardust Memory and War in the Pocket.

She was initially annoyed her brother just dumped at those DVDs on her, being 14 and all, she just tucked them away until one Friday night after getting stood up by her now Ex-Boyfriend who turned out to have been cheating on her with a now Ex-Friend, pulled the back out and binged on them, starting with Gundam 00, expecting little more then mindless explosions. By the following Tuesday she'd burned through everything her brother had given her and started looking for more.

Still, while she'd become a fan of the anime, buying and building a Gunpla was something she'd hadn't considered, even after a local mall got a battle system. She'd watch the battles from time to time but felt that Gunpla building and battling weren’t for her. At First.

Naturally, curiosity got the better of her and she walked into the hobby shop that specialized in Gundam kits and supplys. Her first reaction to all the kits, many of MS and Gundam she'd never seen before was 'holy crap' in that surprised 'this is really this big?!' way, she wandered the shop a bit before grabbing a plain old HG Zaku II, as she generally had a thing for Zeon MS. The kit turned out to be the first of many, though she usually just went for 'show accurate' rather then any kind of custom build.

By the time she was 16 she graduated to battling, just casual matches with the damage set to the lowest
setting with friends she'd made with the regulars at the hobby shop, or the occasional shop run local tournament. Her brother encouraged her to take part in a more serious tournament, after seeing one of her more intense battles. She didn't hesitate like before on this though, she did how ever no enter the first tournament to come around though. What she did instead was talk to, and learn more about customization and tuning for higher performance. Plus she had to pick a Gunpla to 'trick out' and get really combat ready.

The answer to that present it self fairly quickly. The process she used was simple she'd look over her now, impressive collection of Gunpla and pick the one she liked best. Exia got picked becase she had like 5 of them, with a 6th in the form of the newly released RG Exia, which sat unbuilt in it's box still.
With her Gunpla chosen, she still had 2 problems to deal with though. She didn't know what she wanted to do far as customizations went, all offical tournaments in her area all conformed to 'World Championship' standards, which meant Model Damage Level A, a setting she'd never fought on. She'd seen others fight on that setting, and even seen the aftermath of those battles. Still she steeled her self for the ass kicking she was about to get and asked if she could join a game with one them. A couple of them teased her a little, the 'fresh meat' joke being tossed around, but they where generally helpful and one in particular, another girl fighter named Rachel offered advice on how to improve her game.

Mean while Damian suggested she make Exia a 'sleeper', A plain looking model that is hiding a much higher performance level then its looks would imply, Alexis liked this idea, Rachel thought it was underhanded, and she loved it and Alexis set to work building her Exia, field testing it on Level A with her friends, though Exia wasn't ready in time for the first tournament and family issues caused her to miss the one next year so she didn't make her debut till she was 18.

She made it all the way to the first round of the Semi Finals before what amounts to bad luck took her out of the tournament her first year, next year she made it to the finals, but lost to an Eypon after a long fight. Alexis took State on her third try but it was a narrow victory.

It's been a few years since her first State title, since then she collected a few Regional titles and even made it as far as the top 16 in the country. Though lately she's feeling like she's hit a wall, as she's not sure what else she can do to Exia to get more out of it with out. Which is what lead her to apply, and subsequently get into Nielsen's Academy/Lab.

Main Gunpla:
Gundam Exia


Scale: 1/144

Based from: 1/144 RG Gundam Exia

Exia a 'Sleeper' as Damian calls it. Past being well put together one could easily mistake it for a show accurate build, when its really a high performance Gunpla. It is very faithful to the Exia's appearance in 00 but it has been tuned and tweaked a little here and there to eek out a much high performance level then it should other wise have.

Such modifications include; The GN Sword and Blades have have the plastic blades replaced with metal ones, and the Beam Rifle mode for the GN Sword also has been bored out slightly to accommodate a metal lining for the barrel. Metal reenforced shield (molded to fit under the plastic), Tweaked GN Drive and 2 added GN Battery’s to allow for longer Trans-Am time, and replacing the standard Vulcan's with Beam Vulcan’s and the Beam Daggers.

Weapons:
GN Sword (converts to Beam Rifle) x 1
GN Long Blade x 1
GN Short Blade x 1
GN Beam Saber x 2 (stored on the back-skirt armor)
GN Shield x 1
GN Beam Vulcan/Beam Dagger X 2 (Hard-mounted where on the arms where the Vulcan's would be)

Equipment:
Enhanced GN Drive
GN Battery X 2 (back of the shoulders and uses the Beam Saber parts to throw people off/she likes how they look)
Trans-Am System

Other Gunpla:
Straight Build RG Strike Freedom;
Nothing special here, it's just the default out of the box Strike Freedom.



Fixed armaments:
2 x head mounted Vulcans
Troso mounted Beam Cannon
2 x Beam Sabers
2 x Rail Cannons
2 x Beam Shield Generators (fore-arm mounted)
2 x Beam Rifles, that can combine for higher output.

Remote weapons:
Super DRAGOON System with x8 bits, all with Beam Rifles as fixed weapons.

Side note: Alexis actually dislikes the Strike Freedom due to all the 'plot related BS' surrounding it. But uses it anyway due in part to it being a gift from Rachel and to practice with remote weapons like Funnels and the DRAGOON system.
