![[Image: zbgcp8nv.png]](http://s3.directupload.net/images/100117/zbgcp8nv.png)
Name: Captain Johann.Boll alias "John.Chrichton"
Planet/Station: Freeport 15, Omicron 74
Johann is a very friendly and humble guy, though he doesn't sound like sometimes. As former Rheinlander he is lacking in the official Sirius language. He is normally calm and disciplined, but if you provoke him, he can be a hotblooded maniac.
Biography:
787 A.S.
Johann was born in Rheinland on Planet Hamburg, his father Walter Boll was a dock worker at Altona Station. His mother Dorte was unemployed she raised Johann and his little brother Lukas very sheltered, while his father worked hard for the poor family income. As Johann was a good student his parents saved every credit for sending him to university after he finished his military service for the Rheinland Military.
805 A.S.
After Johann was drafted by the Rheinland Military, he got along with his situation. After he completed the basic training, the Rheinland military based him at Battleship Westfalen. At his military service he became more and more liberal, he got the taste of the real life and politics.
807 A.S.
Johann started studying politics, economics and mathematics at the Hamburg University. After the basic classes he used the possibility of a student exchange and went for one year to Planet Manhattan, New York system. There Johann took a class in astronomy. The year in liberty improved Johanns english skills and he met another rheinlander student named Werner Mazursky. Back in Rheinland he was going to finish his studies at the New Berlin University.
811 A.S.
While he was studying and meeting more liberal people, he started to become sympathetic to the Bundschuh. A student association took him one day to Bruchsal Base, Frankfurt system. On their journey back to New Berlin they got stopped and arrested by the Rheinland Federal Police. At the transfer to Vierlande Prison Johann managed to escape at Altona Station. His father Walter knew the docks inside out and took him to a Republican Shipping hangar, where he stole a Camara freighter and fled to the Bundschuh.
812 A.S.
At Bruchsal Base Johann met a guy at the bar. He did not say his name, but he helped Johann to organize a new identity. Thenceforward Johann was known as John Chrichton, moved from system Frankfurt to the borderworlds and joined the zoners way of life. This people did not care about where he came from and what he did, they all had reasons for leaving their home in the house systems. John started a successful career as a zoner trader.
816 A.S.
John became wealthy in this years, but suddenly he faced a lot of new problems. The number of pirated Zoner trading ships increased every year. To secure his income he founded the zoners trading consortium, his old friend from Manhattan University Werner Mazursky and William Topper were the first partners. This small, successful organization became attractive to more and more zoner traders who joined the consortium.
817 A.S
A few weeks ago, John recieved a message from Planet Hamburg. His brother Lukas told him that the Rheinland Federal Police closed the proceedings against Johann Boll. John was mulling over what to do. He can return to his planet, friends and family, but than he have to abandon his good consortium fellows. His decision was to stay at the zoners, that is the life he always liked to have. There was no need anymore for a assumed name, so he decided to reuse his real name again: Johann Boll

Record #75338: "Charles M. Burns"
![[Image: CMB_final.jpg]](http://i853.photobucket.com/albums/ab98/Koschtimma/CMB_final.jpg)
If you would ask other pilots about Charles, they probably would tell you he's shortspoken, respectable, patient and dutiful. He doesn't like to take rigorous steps, but he draws clear borders because he is used to treat everybody equal. If you trespass these, he may turn into a mercyless and shorttempered pilot.
Just a few persons know Charles is born at Planet Manhattan. A part of his heart is still beating for Liberty, although he tries to avoid to give it a visit. Just like he is avoiding all other houses if possible.
This behaviour is originated from the time he was serving in the Liberty Navy. Crowded systems, enemies behind every corner, lack of diplomacy at all. So after some years he really was tired of this. But what to do? Seemed as there was no way out of his situation.
Somehow you can call it destiny that Charles met John Chrichton during his duty. Charles was curious what this Consortium is about, plus he never met a Zoner before. It wasnt neccessary to think long about what to do next. Charles resigned from the navy and left Liberty behind him.
John aka. Johann Boll introduced him to the Consortium. It didnt need long time for Charles to become familiar with Zoners and their behaviour, in addition he was integrated into the Consortium without prejudice. Since this point of time, Charles knew he has made the right decision.
Beeing now a proud member of the Zoners Consortium and a delegate from the Council of Zoners, Charles gained more and more responsibilities. He archieved his temporary career peak in becoming the commander of a brandnew Aquilion Carrier, the Springfield. A mighty vessel which main function is to protect Omcicron Theta and Omicron 74. The Springfield mainly is docked at a secret location, only in use if absolutely neccessary.

Birhting
Frank was not actually born on any planet, he did not get to have that priviledge, so in 787 A.S. he was born on board his Father's ship. His father was the commander of a Fearless Destroyer that protected Zoner bases and interests in the border worlds. His family, however, could call Gran Canaria home, a commonplace amongst commited zoners.
Growing up
Spending a lot of time on his father's ship, Frank did most of his early schooling from a personal tutor, one that had taught his father as a young man. Aside from calculus, politics, astronomy and physics studies, Frank got first hand experience in Zoner diplomacy as he was allowed onboard the bridge to watch his father work. This could range from interactions outside of Freeports as well as unfortunately Nomad encounters. During the times Frank was at home at Gran Canaria, he played played football and skated often; however in the supervison of his father, he could take out a light figher and train. In 805 A.S. Frank took a transport and went to study business at the University of California on Planet Los Angelos.
Post Grad
Upon his graduation, when he turned 23 in 810 A.S., Frank's father gave him 3 million credits as a gift to found a shipping company - Zamboni.Transports.
He started by purchashing a small freighter and took a small loan to hire a crew and insure his cargo. By 815 A.S., Frank's business was steady and flying a Border World Transport. He met a man on Freeport 11 who suggested moving into the mining business as his profits were ever-growing, demanding expansion. So Frank bought a second hand mining ship and sent it to mine from Gran Canaria. Two more years passed where Frank decided he needed more purpose. His business can continue, but he still desired to return to his roots... from the days of living on his Father's destroyer. He wanted to become a proactive member of the Zoner community to protect, engage in scientietific developments, and maintain diplomatic relatationships.
ZTC
817 A.S. Frank has successfully merged his assets into the Zoners Trading Consortium, in order to fulfill more his most meaningful goals.
