Steam Name / Steam ID: Bourbon NOO (It’s me hexy, guys.) I've posted the Steam ID enough times for you to go back and get it.


How long have you played on the server?: Long enough to become staff, then resign when everyone else did.

Few months, basically. Mid-Summer to a few weeks ago, now I'm back.


Characters name/nicknames: Xavier Shannon. Some Nicknames he has varies from Loudmouth, to Super-Maine-Man.


Characters Race((Be aware Quarian, and Turian are application only and must have a detailed backstory in order for the character to be accepted.
http://revivalservers.com/index.php?threads/the-species-list.5992/) : Homo Sapien from the planet Earth, born of a White Mother and a Hispanic Father, rendering him Half-Hispanic. Tl;dr: Half-Hispanic Human

Requested position aboard the ship((http://revivalservers.com/index.php?threads/available-positions.5978/)): Engineer.


Specific equipment, weaponry, gear, and/or abilities:


Alliance Marine Gene Therapy: Something Xavier tries to forget is the Gene Therapy he had to go through upon enlisting. The Gene Therapy Xavier received increases his physical and overall ability in terms of combat. He is not only faster and stronger than the average man, but is one of the many first-hand shows of the benefits of genetic therapy.


M-55 Argus: A Popular weapon amongst C-Sec Personnel, this rifle fires in three-round bursts with a funky recoil and modest stopping power. He actually procured this one through legal means. Has a 21 Round Heat Clip, which actually tends to last a bit.





N7 Hurricane: Illegally procured and with one heck of a fire rate, the Hurricane is the weapon you want strapped on your side when sheer Dakka is your biggest ally. Known for it’s fair balance of damage and sheer output of fire, the Hurricane is the perfect weapon for what Xavier likes to call ‘Swiss Cheesing the losers on the wrong team.’




Alliance Marine Corp. Standardized Hardsuit: His Hardsuit is the one typically issued to all Alliance Marines, be it he’s modified it only slightly. It’s servomotors have been very lightly increased, in terms of ability, and various magstrips across the chest, the side of the helmet, and so on have been installed. The Shield has been re-fitted to something of a slightly superior calibre. He’s toyed with the color a bit.





Military-Grade Engineering Omni-Tool: An Omni-Tool that is fitted with most Omni-Tool’s fun things, however also with various other technological goodies that Xavier much enjoys playing with. From the Omni-Blade to the Tech Armor, as well as incineration, Omni-Drones, and most other goods you could imagine one techie fitting to their Omni-Tool. He has most tech powers, but not all of them. Overload and Such are to be expected, Omni-Shield is a thing, too. And Sabotage.








Characters alignments (Select one, or make one.): Neutral Good.




Characters Backstory:


Xavier Shannon, a mere man of 24 with quite a bit of history to his relatively short life. Live fast and hard, he promised himself at a young age.


Xavier was born in Maine to two parents who never kept him around long, instead opting to hand him off to his Uncle, who served moreso as his Parent whilst his biological ones faced Economic struggle as will as trouble in the eyes of the Law. Child protective services was involved in the transfer, and he was placed into a fitting household.


Xavier’s Uncle -- Benjamin Shannon -- Had been a man of the Alliance Naval Forces, not a Marine but merely one of the many ‘Boat-Boys’, serving as a Non-Commissioned Officer for some time before taking his leave from the armed forces at age Forty. Xavier grew up hearing stories from his Uncle about the good and bad times of his Service, of the heroes and oddballs he grew met and fought alongside in a ship. Tales he had heard from other Veterans, to merely the odd thing he came across in bootcamp. He showed Xavier the thing he had collected, his M7 Rifle, his Service Pistol and so on, as well as various Medals, none of which were of overly high renown.


But this boggled the mind of the young Shannon, to him ‘Uncle Benny’ was a hero of Humanity, and also maybe a killer of Aliens. He hadn’t had much of a grasp on terms of interspecies warfare quite yet.


In any case, Xavier’s education was shockingly good. With his Uncle’s tutoring and his own actual efforts, he pushed through Elementary and Middle School with grades reaching the top, resulting in him actually skipping Grade 3, and Grade Seven, and so on.


With entry into High School, he took classes in Computing, Technology, Skycars and so on. His grades on such where quite good, actually. His streak of having great grades dropped during Grade Nine, be it once he had a choice of his classes, they shot back up. He ended up leaving with a College Scholarship, and thus he did it.


Going into College, he took mainly classes around the same he took in High School, however around the last Year of College, he dropped out.


He allowed his childish ambitions to overtake him at some point, and thus he enlisted in the Alliance Marine Corp, ever desiring to be like his father figure. Of course, he enlisted and then some.. Reapers starting happening shortly after.


He wasn’t involved in many Major Battles, however with him he displayed Battle Prowess that was slightly above average, and thus got him noticed by some of his superiors.


In a foolish mistake, he was Elevated to Serviceman First Class and then shoved into the ICT, much to his dismay.


During Training, he actually ended up popping a few of the instructors with live rounds as opposed to dummies during a training exercise. Sadly, this lead to Xavier being court martialed and Dishonorably Discharged, he barely got free of a Prison Sentence. He was N3 at the time.


Now Xavier owed College Money, was out of a Job, and had some stuff left behind. He scrounged up the money he had left over and took some of his Uncle’s old Gear, as he had long since passed, by about three months. He turned himself about and threw himself head first into the Private Security Industry. First into Elanus Risk Control, then into the New Eden Corporation -- Which he promptly went AWOL -- Before going down to Omega and starting to work independently for a few years. He used the money he mooched off New Eden to actually afford quite the few new Mods for his stuff, as will as some Illegal Firearms.




What is your character's goal aboard the ship?: Xavier merely wishes to try and act like the Man he intended to be, as it was taken from him by a genuine mistake.


Why were they hired by PTFC?: Well, He's a Marine, more Firepower, and was an N3. As well the as the fact he knows to handle Machines, it's almost a no-brainier.

Although...fairly but acceptably short.
It's fairly detailed.
The application does follow my tips somewhat.
And I have no problem with the story.
Now we wait for other responses.
