Life in the Stars
Characters
Jonas
Name: Jonas
Height: 6' 6"
Theme Song(s): Master of Puppets - Metallica
Hell March2 - C&C: Red Alert 2
Appearance: A looming figure, he is usually dressed like a country's
leader; the whole formal suit look. He likes blue ties, but that's
the only color he wears. He'll usually accentuate his looming figure
with dark attire, making him seem very intimidating.
Info:
He is the leader, and owner, of Neona, the country in orbit around
the moon. He ordered the firing of a Naquadria bomb at Africa as a
demonstration of his power, and uses the threat of these super bombs
as intimidation to keep the earth from rebelling. (However, he has
conluded that using these bombs would be necessary in the case of
total war only, but the Earth doesn't know that.)
The hundreds of "odd" shipments to the colony were military equipment
mostly, and the colony went from life-sustaining area to a military
stronghold, with defenses systems and high-power lasers with a margin
of error only 5 inches wide. This means that from orbit around the
moon, you can shoot anything on earth within a 5-inch circle.
Assasination tool? You bet. Jonas is a shadowy figure and little is
known about his past. He appeared when the European Space Agency
needed funds, and made a deal to buy their space station. He has only
one person close to him, a female named Clara, of whom equally little
is known.

Shiva
Name: Shiva Vilmaris
Name Meaning: Hindu god of cycles and revolution; protector from
the sea
Gender: Female
Age: 20
Race: Terran, but she belongs to a group called the Earthians that
accepts both Terran and Neonian society, so she identifies herself
as Earthian.
Occupation: Bodyguard, currently assigned to Jonas
If She Had a Theme Song, It Would Be: "One Girl Revolution" by
Superchic[k]
Appearance: Shiva is about 5'5" tall, unless you count the tall
shoes she wears as part of her height. If you do, then she stands
at 5'7" or 5'8". She has rather unique looks due to her heritage.
(Her father was Indian and her mother was Japanese.) The result
is a complexion that is the color of coffee with a LOT of milk in
it( if you wanted to be poetic, you could call it cafe-au-lait) and
almond-shaped, green eyes. Somehow, blonde hair made its way into
her genes, but no one's quite sure how it got there. Her hairstyle
varies depending on how she feels; she usually keeps her hair up in
two sloppy pigtails on the top of her head, but occasionally she
wears them in two loose braids or even just leaves it long. Her
clothes vary from day to day, of course, but since she's become a
bodyguard she's become much more comfortable with how she looks.
She's particularly proud of her abs, so a lot of the clothing she
wears shows off her stomach. Her favorite outfit consists of a pale
blue, sleeveless, Chinese-style top that ends just under her chest
paired with jade-green, extremely baggy cargo pants. Navy blue
sneakers with 2" or 3" soles complete her ensemble, and sometimes
she wears a navy blue jacket along with it. Luckily for her, she
doesn't have to worry about exposing any vital organs, because all
bodyguards who work for Jonas are equipped with an invisible set of
body armor.
Personality: Generally bright, optimistic, and sunny, Shiva is a
fairly positive girl. She often does things to cheer others up. She
enjoys her job a lot because she's helping someone and she's keeping
in shape. Sometimes she doesn't like the part of her job that
requires her to hurt others, but she does her best to handle it and
only hurt people when necessary. There is another, more introspective
side of her that is rarely seen; this is the part that recognizes the
negative things in life and is more serious as well. She doesn't care
much for being solemn, but she will be if it's needed to get the job
done.
Likes: music; dancing; being happy; the cool gadgets she gets for
working as a bodyguard; her hoverboard
Dislikes: discrimination against Terrans or Neonians; death
Hobbies: DDR; hoverboarding; listening to music
Special Equipment: Shiva's most precious possession is her blue-green
hoverboard. It's a new form of transportation much like a skateboard,
except it relies on a low-power gravitational neutralizer to allow
the user to, well, hover. Shiva is quite proud of her riding skills
with her board and uses it whenever she has the chance. The most
important piece of equipment she owns is the bodyguard armor supplied
to her by Jonas' company. It's invisible in order to make her look
more like a regular citizen than a bodyguard, which is designed to make
possible assassins less likely to consider her a threat. While it is
a fairly good set of armor, it is somewhat weakened in the process of
making it invisible. It is not impervious and does not make her
invincible, but it does reduce the effects of attacks against her.
Occasionally she will receive other gadgets from her employers if it
is necessary, but at the current time she has none

"Zack"
[Name] Unknown
[Name used] Zack
[Race] Neonan
[Height] Unknown
[Weight] Unknown
[Occupation] Bodyguard/Assassin
[Previous Occupations/Titles] 5th Dan in Ishin-ryu, 7th Dan in Kung
Fu, 4th Dan in Tai-Kwan-Do, 6th Dan in Jeet Kune Do, 9th Dan in
Kenjutsu. Lieutenant Commander of Dev Group (Essentially the Navy's
version of Delta Force) and Sergeant in the Army's Rangers
[Weaponry] Disciplined in most martial weapons of the Eastern and
Western type as well as unarmed combat and modern ranged weaponry.
This bodyguard/assassin was inspired by an insurgency mission in
Brazil where they helped a village defend against mercenaries hired
by logging companies. Zack started to become less consuming about
how he did his work, becoming a sniper and martial artist where he
consumed little to nothing while fighting. Eventually he quit and
went mercenary until he meet Jonas, a radical like himself.
Jonas eventually offered him a job after assassinating a few high
ranking execs at the same logging company that attacked the village
so many years before.
[Equipment] Zack always carries two daggers and a USP Compact pistol
in a tactical drop-hip holster with two extra clips (10 rd clips)
[Appearance] Varies depending on his role, from a black night suit
to standard marine camoflauge to a sharp black tux. He prefers when
allowed, however, to wear Knee-zip black cargo pants (the ones that
change into shorts with a zipper at the knees) with a wife-beater
underneath a long-sleeve white shirt with the symbol for Omega in
black and crimson on the back of the shirt (which tells a story in
and of itself) and a black leather trench coat to match
