<strong>Username</strong>: Chaznia<div class="floatright">(http://i1226.photobucket.com/albums/ee406/Mostly_roleplay_pictures/People/AnimeGuySteampunkWorker.jpg)</div><br/><strong>Character Name</strong>: Shane Bartholomew<br/><strong>Age</strong>: 25<br/><strong>Role</strong>: Technician<br/><strong>Picture or Physical Description</strong>: (picure to the right) Standing at around 5'10 and weighing just under a buck 90, Shane doesn't cut a particularly intimidating figure, though he carries himself with a certain amount of assurance that lends him a second glance most of the time. His calm hazel eyes give a hint at his nature and his phisique is one earned from years of honest hard work.<br/><strong>Sexuality</strong>: pansexual<br/><strong>Personality</strong>:  Mostly laid-back, this techie is just as much grounded as he is helpful. Knowing that he is at least partially responsible for the health checks of others on staff, he has a bit of a goofy side that can come out when he needs to lighten the mood for these mandatory and hum-drum sessions although, truth be told, he'd rather leave this particular assignment to the other technicians, being that his background is in engineering in stead of the medical field. This doesn't mean that he can't do his job, he'd taken two years of medical school before dropping out to get his hands on something more mechanical, so the job of Technician is the perfect mix of Engineer and Medic, as far as he's concerned.<br/><strong>History</strong>: Born Sharon Bartholomew, Shane's life as a biological woman is far behind him and, luckily, being a part of the Solace gives him a true opportunity for a fresh start and he looks forward to it. He popped right out of high school in Midwest America and transitioned while in going immediately to college. Of course, the first few years were rocky, which likely influenced his decision to drop out of medical school, but in the end he became happy with the well-rounded education he received. After moving away from his home state, he lost contact with his parents and the majority of his extended family as well, so there was little to make him hesitate applying for this mission.<br/><strong>Skills/Hobbies</strong>: Shane likes to tinker with many small gadgets, though this is likely his career entering into his sleeping mind, as it's something he generally does to keep his hands busy while his mind mulls something over. Aside from this, he reads a lot and dabbles with creative writing in his free time. On the years of downtime on the ship, he'll likely keep himself busy by perfecting a few stories he'd been working on for years. Additionally, he's a veritable expert in fruit - the on the thing that carried over from being raised on his parent's farm.<br/><strong>Starting Gear</strong>: A laptop with "voice to text" software so he can work on his writing while working or working out, the computer also has a large bank of memory devoted to old movie files. He has basic work out equipment and tools/diagnostic equipment for his job. Additionally, he has dormant seeds of several kinds of fruit trees and holds them precious, waiting to possibly plant them again some day.
