Are You Applying for The Core Paramilitary, or our AP Manufacturing Sub-Divison?: Both
Previous Jobs/Roles/Experience: Light/heavy Fighter Pilot
Detailed Background, One Paragraph or So (the more we can learn about you, the better):
My name is Nick Wilson, I was born in Alabama Shipyard then later moved to live in Yaren Base, my father was a fighter but he got killed by the Nomads when I was young, so my mother raised me up to be a fighter like him. My father used to fly an old rusty but a beautiful beast called Mako which I wish to learn how to fly it one day. I might learn in The Core how to fly it because It's very complicated for a rookie like me to play with big ships. I like to fly with The Core and learn a lot of things from them like how to kill nomads and how to survive in a cruel world like Omicrons.

Taden "The Dark" Harrs, your application has been accepted.
Nick Wilson, I am afraid we cannot accept you into the ranks of the Core straight away. In your biography, you stated you were born on Yaren and that you are 36 years old and that your father "owned" a Mako. There are two very severe problems here. First, a Commander of a Warship doesn't own that warship. Second, if you were born on Yaren 36 years ago, I'm assuming your father was based out of that same base, yes? Well, as luck would've have it, the Core took over that base from the Corsairs somewhere around a decade ago, my math doesn't check out, neither does your story.
If you want to be accepted, you'll have to go through our Rookie program for a month, until we're sure you're up to speed and we have a valid background on you. Then you'll undergo another evaluation and based on your performance, you'll remain with our ranks or we'll go our separate ways.
Pilot Region, House or Location of Origin: Planet Nauru, Omicron Delta
Are You Applying for The Core Paramilitary, or our AP Manufacturing Sub-Divison?: Both
Previous Jobs/Roles/Experience: Currently working as iridium ore transporter
Detailed Background, One Paragraph or So (the more we can learn about you, the better): Born on planet Nauru, I am accustomed to its arid deserts and the harshness of life that come with them. My father David Perkins, a humble man of Zoner descent, is still working in the mining complex on the planet. Thanks to him I learned the basics of ore mining and commercial trade. My mother, Kassandra Perkins, on the other hand was never quite the housewife of a working class man. Being the daughter of a Libertonian military official, she always looked to the stars for a more adventurous lifestyle, which ultimately lead a divorce some 5 years ago. As an independent bounty hunter, she racked up a lot of victories and payments for bringing down some of the worst scum in Sirius. Exactly because of this reason she was also hunted by most known outlaw groups, which eventually lead to an ambush during a corsair raid in the ice field of Omicron Kappa.
Why do you want to join The Core/APM?: My mother's gruesome death left little impact on my dad's demeanor, but I felt like a part of my soul was torn from me. On that fateful day I vowed to take up arms and exterminate every Corsair that falls in my sights. With this resolve I come to you and wish to be enlisted in your ranks. In return I offer whatever skills I have to better aid your organization, be it fighting on the battlefield or enforcing supplies transportation.

Pilot Region, House or Location of Origin: Bretonia, Dublin
Are You Applying for The Core Paramilitary, or our AP Manufacturing Sub-Divison?: APM as my degrees reflect a scientific background, but my further history before becoming a learned man reflects a more, shall we say, checkered past.
Previous Jobs/Roles/Experience: Director of SLRC prior to disbandment. Independent Molly before attending the University of Cambridge. Degrees in Hyperspatial Theorem, Xenobiology, Applied Physics, and Theoretical Physics. Graduate of Cambridge University in all.
Detailed Background, One Paragraph or So (the more we can learn about you, the better): My name is Dr. Montgomery, I am the former Director of Starlight Research Consortium, a Zoner organization operating out of Tau-23. My organization disbanded following what I suspect is an attempted infiltration by a hostile third party. I've grown tired of being a Zoner in any form as they are cowards who roll over for one and all and refuse to push the boundaries of science beyond what is "socially acceptable".
Why do you want to join The Core/APM?: I'm looking for a home that will not only celebrate my achievements in science as well as afford me an opportunity to seek vengeance on certain parties that are, conveniently, enemies of the Core. While I am a scientist by trade, I am capable in a combat environment when I need to be from my years as a Molly before attending university.

Previous Jobs/Roles/Experience: Patrolling against Nomads within the Omicron systems.
Detailed Background, One Paragraph or So (the more we can learn about you, the better): A simple scout, giving details and intels that the supervisors does not know what may hold within each system, such as minefields, bases, hostile activity and so on. Ever since the ashes of the order is slowly increasing, no other leader couldn't bare the wars and the rubles around the systems and I had no choice but to look elsewhere for help. I was left alone within the ashes of Kefalonia ship, it was wrecked and no survivors was left within the Omicron Theta, so I used the ship to overstay around bases while I search somewhere like home. As far as I know, I am far away from home and probably I have to join the enemies, as they always. If you can't beat, why not join them.
