You seem like a good person with good values and solid genes, thats more important than some might think living in Puerto Rico. Just uh, try to keep the Pirate Train out of Liberty, they are really not fond of those things.
Welcome to The Congress captain,
Move on over to Puerto Rico and visit Arbiter Rick Tiltman at the Ruff Tuff bar on the Vieques Shipyard to get your ship fitted with the proper equipment,
Birthday and Birthplace: September 19th, 764 AS, Planet Erie, Pennsylvania
Biography: I grew on the streets of Erie. I never really knew my parents since they died while I was young. I've spent my entire life doing whatever it took to get by. Eventually, I landed a gig as a cargo guard on a transport ship. We had a few scraps every now and then, but then we ran up against some Xenos. It was during this confrontation that the captain was killed by a rupturing plasma conduit in the cockpit. We were adrift with Xenos bearing down on us, so I flung myself into the pilot's seat. I was no pilot, but I managed to get us moving again. We pulled to the nearby trade lane and narrowly escaped.
Ever since, I've been addicted to the thrill of piloting a cargo freighter. I pride myself on being able to get anything to anywhere, and doing it as fast as possible. No cargo is too hot.
How fast can you repair a broken Salvager?: I don't do fixing. I do piloting.
How good are you at selling Premium Scrap to a stranger?: The trick is convincing them that the scrap is still functional. You can charge much higher prices for functional equipment.
What would you do if you get caught smuggling by a member of law enforcement? What about if you're stopped by a bandit while smuggling?:
Law enforcement: "Contraband you say?! Why officer, I had no idea! I was told that these crates contained standard food rations!" (All while charging the cruise engines and priming countermeasures)
Bandits: You can never have too much scrap. Fire up the turrets.
What knowledge do you possess of the Puerto Rico systen, if any?: Very little
What ships do you already own?: DSE-720 "Camara" Civilian Freighter

Birthday and Birthplace: 3/4/795, Roppongi Station <ANSWER>
Biography: I was born to a Libertonian mother and a Kusari father. Both were scientists who made great discoveries, but were never funded for their work and were often plagiarized. After several years of trying to solve an impossible problem, they were quickly discredited and pushed out of the Kusari Scientific Organization. I am not like my parents. The only family and group of people I trust with my knowledge and safety are myself and my parents. We have been running for decades now from Kusari, and now that we are in Liberty, I need a new family to put my trust in. <TEXT>
How fast can you repair a broken Salvager?: As fast as they stole my parents' work. So hella fast. But it depends on the money and the extent of the repairs, of course. <ANSWER>
How good are you at selling Premium Scrap to a stranger?: “Hello sir, can I interest you in some Premium Scrap, the finest scrap in all of Sirius? Only (random number) credits for this here bundle!”, although I probably wouldn’t be as nice.
What would you do if you get caught smuggling by a member of law enforcement? What about if you're stopped by a bandit while smuggling?: “talk it out” and then countermeasure them in the face. <ANSWER>
What knowledge do you possess of the Puerto Rico systen, if any?: O have never been to the Puerto Rico system, sadly. <ANSWER>

Biography: Hello, I'm a normal guy, I used to smuggle Cardamine and artifacts first until I heard about premium scrap and other ores so I started to explore the fields and bases to find and collect data about these ores and the best routes to sell them. From that time I didn't smuggle a lot. To be honest If I can make 40-50 million per run in trading ores (which is legal) I would ask for double the price to smuggle since Kusari is blocking us.
How fast can you repair a broken Salvager?: Easy I can dock and Repair it.
How good are you at selling Premium Scrap to a stranger?: It's my Job to mine and trade premium scrap.
What would you do if you get caught smuggling by a member of law enforcement? What about if you're stopped by a bandit while smuggling?: Normally I use clacking device when I smuggle so I'll clock my ship.

Your Name:
Khem Your Age:
25 Where are you from?:
Colorado Previous Jobs/Roles:
Ageira Technician, Soldier of Fortune, Freelancer Detailed Background, a Paragraph (the more we can learn about you, the better):
Seen many things in my short years. Enough to know this economy is unstable. Won't last long. Existential threats lurk on the edges of our perception. Most can't see it. Squabbles for resources are petty. One man can only accomplish so much. Knowledge brought back from the shrine is... unsettling at best. Must prepare. Best course of action would seem to be guiding the events of Sirius from the shadows, and with force when necessary. Junkers potential for influence greater than all other factions. Why do you want to join the Junker Marauders? What can you bring to JM?:
"Lawful" and "Criminal" are subjective terms; useless in the grand scheme. Violence is a means to an end, yet usually unnecessary. Connections across universe useful. Freedom from House tyranny is essential.
:::]OoRP Form[:::
How long have you been playing Freelancer Discovery for?:
I can't really say. Ive had Freelancer since it came out (i was a kid). Was always looking for good mods on it. Found Discovery like 2-3 years ago but didn't get too deep into it. Past month or 2 i've been on a real nostalgia kick and came back. I must admit i was ecstatic to see the server was still active. How long have you played a Junker character for, if at all? (Not important, it's just useful to know if you've played a Junker before. We accept both people who have and people who haven't played a Junker before):
Never really got in to RP much, and was usually an Outcast when I do. I'm much more appreciative of neutrality now that I'm older. In your own words, how would you define a Quasi-Lawful?:
Seemingly lawful, but not really. Strong legal front. Brings order to the potential chaos of the criminal underworld. How familiar are you with the Borderworlds?:
I know Vanilla Freelancer like the back of my hand. Discovery not so much, but i'm still exploring and using navmap. How familiar are you with smuggling?:
I know how to buy something cheap, take a path not often traveled, and sell it where its illegal. Outside of that I can't say. How familiar are you with piracy?:
Somewhat. I'm big on gathering knowledge so whatever I know isn't really relevant because I'm always looking to add to it. What factions have you been in previously?:
On Discovery I have never joined an official faction. Did not get around to it. Why do you want to join the Junker Marauders? What can you offer?:
I want a true neutral character. Like i said in character: Legal and Illegal are subjective terms, and I don't want to limit myself to being one or the other. I also was reading in to discovery rules and how powerful factions can influence some of the story. I would like to do that. Junkers funding warring factions for their own interests. Finally, what is your Skype?:
Um i have discord. BangBangBoogie#7026

Biography: <Not Much is known of Khem before he joined Ageira Technologies at 16. By age 23 He left, mostly falling off the grid. Surprisingly charismatic for a man of few words, Khem was often known for his intelligence and ability to defuse hostile situations; violently, if necessary. After his disappearance in 818 A.S he was sighted leaving the unstable jumphole in Thuriniga. After spending a month on Malta, he returned to Liberty, even quieter than before.>
How fast can you repair a broken Salvager?: Depends. Do I have to run diagnostics? Depending on what's broken could turn it from an hour and a half job to a multy day job.
How good are you at selling Premium Scrap to a stranger?: As good as their money is.
What would you do if you get caught smuggling by a member of law enforcement? What about if you're stopped by a bandit while smuggling?: <Depends on situation. Either Get rid of who's in my way and any witnesses, or... appease them because the cost is negligible. >
What knowledge do you possess of the Puerto Rico systen, if any?: <Stay the fuck away from the Stellar Matter Steam>
What ships do you already own?: <Salvager, Pirate Train>
