Name   :  Adam Hester<br/>Race   :  Human<br/>Gender :  Male<br/>Height :  5'9"<br/>Weight :  155<br/>Hair   :  Orange-red<br/>Eyes   :  Grey<br/>Age    :  25<br/>Classification : Science Officer<br/><br/><br/>Background:<br/><br/>Adam grew up with a family of privateers.  As it was, he never got a proper education, teachers, desks...  His class room was the kitchen galley.  Then it was the hydroponics and waste facilities.<br/><br/>Eventually his father asked him what he wanted to do for the ship, and bright eyed, Adam, replied immediately, "I want to work the sensor suites and ground radar!"<br/><br/>Taken back by his immediate and enthusiastic answer, Pa reared back and laughed and clapped a monster of a paw on his sons shoulder, staggering him.  "Then it shall be as<br/>you ask.  It is demanding work, son.  A quick eye and mind is required."  Pa looked at Adam appraisingly.  "Why not," Pa answered. "I think you will fill the job out nicely." Pa Nods approvingly.<br/><br/>Adam taught himself everything he knew from books.  He found as long as he read something, he could recall it forever.  The world around him fascinated him.  He loved to set up experiments and research the results.<br/><br/>As Adam aged, it soon became apparent to him that he would serve in a very minor role in his family business.  With this in mind, he decides to ply his knowledge on the open market and finds a ship.  Worried about his experience, Adam offers room, board, and a meager salary for his services.<br/><br/><br/>Personality:<br/><br/>Adam is easy going and likes sarcasm.  He smiles often enough, if not a toothy grin.  Confident, calm under pressure and a problem solver, Adam easily embraces a<br/>group of people to trust in his abilities to get the ship and crew where it needs to be.  Even if it means doing a complete overhaul of the ships hydroponics system.  Lord knows, he knowes them in side and out.<br/><br/><br/>Enochian Ability:  (May or May not be active,  abilities will require Story Teller approval and will begin at weaker tier abilities.)<br/><br/>Adam has heard of these devices growing up.<br/><br/>There was a time when Adam accompanied Pa to a trade meeting.  Something happened that day that his Pa never commented on, Adam was never sure why.  The memory haunts him still.  A supposed Enochian artifact, a small broken looking trinket, was passed around.  When the paige stopped before my father and I it glowed slightly and my eyes widened with wonder.  Pa, seemingly angry at this event, waved the paige on.  Pa beat me that night after I failed to stop asking him questions about what had happened.  He promised me to beat me to within an inch of my life if I ever mentioned the event to anyone.<br/><br/>This moment is sequestered away in a corner of mind for access if need be.  But hoolies, I don't have a clue what it all means.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Likes    :  Nothing beats a new discovery to be recorded.  Isolating 'alien' or unknown matter.  Finding a good text he has not read or found as of yet.  Meticulously neat, enjoys a good mess meal chat, the quick visits of friend on an overnight watch, an aged brandy and a hand rolled cigar.  Team based sports.<br/><br/>Dislikes :  Ill organized spaces.  Can not do attitudes.  Whiners.<br/><br/>Habbit's :  Spends a good bit of his free time analyzing compounds and materials, testing untried combinations.  His work station, living quarters, and occasionally the hydroponics section gets periodic cleaning. Enjoys whatever pick up game in the rec facilities, likes to place small wagers to spice up the competition.  Reads alot when on watch (understanding the possibilities for a conflict of interest on this score, Adam designs a holographic HUD interface to read while on watch, thus minimizing conflict with duty.  Adam's program is available to any with e-books or articles, etc for remote access.  No network storage needed here, Adam has a plethora of data disks)<br/><br/>Aspects:<br/><br/>"Sensor Ace"<br/>"Picture perfect memory"<br/>"Mr Scientific Method"<br/><br/>________________________________________<br/><br/>"Overly Competitive"<br/>"Overly Meticulous"<br/>"Gambler"<br/><br/>2 Aspects to be decided later.<br/><br/><br/>Skills:<br/><br/>Sensor Ops    : Great (+4)<br/>--------------------------<br/>Contacts       : Good  (+3)<br/>Galactic Lore  : Good<br/>--------------------------<br/>Starship Ops   : Fair  (+2)<br/>Resources      : Fair<br/>Hydroponics    : Fair<br/>--------------------------<br/>Blasters        : Avg   (+1)<br/>Sixth Sense   : Avg<br/>Power Use     : Avg<br/>Athletics       : Avg<br/><br/><br/><br/>Health    : 5<br/>Composure : 5<br/><br/><br/><br/>Perks:<br/><br/>Level 2 Gadget:  A brief case size unit that carries shoulder slung.  Devices to analyze air composition as well as soil or vegetable, animal, or mineral.  Small chemical field kit w/ plasma burner and centrifuge.  Renewable power source (recharge-able batteries ;D ).  Direct terminal interface for in ship use<br/><br/>Child of Enoch<br/><br/><br/><br/>Intent of character:  To fufill bridge watches, interact in a tactical situation with his sensor experience, ie sensor suites, ecm/eccm, and dodging of authorities.  Solving problems as they occurr, using his knowlegde of science and scientific method to find solutions.<br/><br/>Contacts represent ppl in lower positions of imports/exports, customs, docking facilities, space ports.<br/><br/>Resources represent Adam's share of the family business, it is a sizeable fund, swiss bank account style.<br/><br/>Like to use resources to make sure I have some basic things I have picked up till now, not overly powerful, more meant as descriptive.<br/><br/>Decent with a blaster, preffers a shoulder stock, scope mounted, semi auto rifle, with gyro stabilization. Little Johny prefers a blaster pistol.<br/><br/>Both Adam and Johny would like some sort of tactical vacuum suit with retractable face enclosure for emergency depressurizations.  Lightly resistant to ballistic and energy fire.  Suit seals itself at points of entry to maintain O2 seals.
