The life of Jason James Kalvin - PlasmaSabre - 11-17-2014
Chapter 1
Jason James Kalvin, son of Interspace Captain Matthew Kalvin, was born on Newark Station in 797 A.S. He followed his father into the commerce business and by the age of 18 was shipping high-risk, high-value cargo. After four years of rising within their ranks he was contracted by DSE to deliver important supplies to Project Looking Glass, and given command of a CT-69 Crane, callsign Icarus-IV.
One fateful day in 819 A.S., disaster struck. A squadron of 5 pirate bombers appeared out of the fog in Kansas, promising death if Jason didn’t drop his cargo: a prototype fusion core for the [REDACTED] at [REDACTED]. Upon his refusal the bombers began their attack, and the battle raged for hours as laser fire from escorts and pirates alike illuminated the Turtle Creek Nebula. As the battle drew ever closer to the system’s star a lucky shot demolished one of the links on the Icarus-IV, separating the cryo-gas pod containing the reactor. The pirates quickly departed with their booty, leaving Jason and his crew all but stranded in the desolate system of Kansas.
As the ship drifted slowly through space, Jason repeatedly attempted to make distress calls. Hours turned to days as the crew of the Icarus-IV rationed the remaining food. Finally, after 3 days of floating through space, the receiver burst to life. “Well, someone looks in need of a few repairs.” Needless to say, Jason and the crew were immensely grateful to their rescuer, Kamir of the ITS. Wearied from his experiences, Jason applied for a position within this company in hope of a quieter life, and Kamir readily agreed upon seeing his qualifications. Jason currently captains the ITS]-Whirlwind, a CT-73(m) Stork.

Chapter 2
With the fall of Itasca Station and the presumed deaths of Kamir and Rand, as 3iC Jason Kalvin was thrust into the position of leadership for the first time in his life. Facing the huge Outcast threat without the support of the Vagrant Raiders was too much for him. He sold the ITS]-Whirlwind, fled to Bretonia to start a new life and began to go by his second name, James. It was here that he met a Bowex transport pilot called Gemma Wilson, who became his wife later near the end of 821 A.S.
Within recent months James has returned to Liberty and reassumed command of the ITS, with a new purpose in mind: the construction of a medical facility. Tired of the injustice in Sirius and unable to do anything about it, the remaining members of the ITS board of directors have approved the creation of a new, highly sophisticated station.

excerpts from executive vice president R.N. Haroldson’s speechWrote:"The Glenview Medical Facility will serve as a public hospital, open to all who require assistance. The station will produce, import and export the finest medical equipment and pharmaceuticals in an effort to ameliorate the situation in both Liberty, and the Sirius sector as a whole."
"...to use the company motto, "We Dare To Dream” of a brighter future..."
When they moved to Liberty, James and Gemma purchased her former Bowex “Shetland” transport, renamed to ITS]-Destiny. They currently reside on Planet Houston in the Texas system, and are gathering funding for the construction of Glenview Medical Facility.
//ITS ships will now use the Cryer ID, since i think it fits in a lot better with the RP than the Interspace ID
