Hi, can I join?
I hope it's okay that I use a character concept I use for a similar rp. I've changed the name, but other than that it's pretty much the same :)
Name: 1st Sergeant Max Roscoe
Gender: male
Age: 20
Height: 180 cm
Weight: 84 kg
Appearance: Max has dark brown hair, full, deep-set green eyes and bushy eyebrows that follow the natural curve of his round forehead. His face is oblong with a strong, set jaw, his nose is broad and rounded, and his lips are thin and always split in a cheeky, friendly smile. His hair has been cut very short, revealing larger than average ears. Generally he has a well-proportioned head.
His body is lean and muscular with taut muscles stretching like wires underneath his golden-brown skin.
Personality: In every platoon there is always this one guy who, to the apparent dismay or joy of the others, is always in a good mood, always being cheeky and always making jokes. Max is that guy. He is the squad comedian, sometimes being genuinely funny and other times entertaining no one but himself. He seems to cope well with the constant pressure of war, but whether his behavior is just a defensive mechanism is not clear. He is fiercely loyal to his comrades, and gets his tasks done. He is among some of the youngest soldiers in the army, and tries to live up to the expectations of his seniors, but he is exposed to error due to his young age.
Likes: joking, music, technology, cigarets
Dislikes: boredom, reading, having to wait.
Bio:
Max is a native of the inhabitable moon Xalas Prime. Similar to the size of the celestial body orbiting Earth, Xalas Prime is one of the smallest human colonies and is generally regarded as a refueling station on the way through the sector. It is largely covered by industrial buildings; factories, test grounds and the likes make up 90% of the buildings, and the same percentage of the populace work in that field of work.
Max is a by-product of the industrial environment of Xalas Prime. He is the son of two factory workers, and has been around technology his entire life. Living on an isolated, boring world made him crave to see the universe at a very young age, and his youth naivety made him easy prey for the Army. He enlisted at the age of 17 and worked his way up through to Sergeant through battlefield commissions.
Max commandeers a substantially smaller than average unit. Nimbly built and lithe, this mech is perfect for working under the radar. It holds an armor piercing sniper rifle and a smaller assault rifle as well as a smoke cover, and tracers. It's armor is carbon-based with a titanium core, and always features a custom paint job made by Max, which is always painted to provide maximum camouflage to the world of operation. Its factory and class designation is S-307 "Jorax" after an ancient indigenous animal on Xalas Prime which is now extinct.
I'll try to provide you with a picture of the mech when I have time!
