103rd Panzer Division
Posted Image
Welcome to the 103rd Panzer Division, popularly known as the Wolfhounds. The Wolfhounds were a prominent force that served during the First Helios War. The 103rd Division was Elysia's first line of defense being one of the first units to see combat in January 4th 2017. Deployed to Zipang as part of Operation: Dividing Wind, a joint Elysian-Zipang effort to drive the Lestonian army out of the allied nation. However this was a dark time in the units history, during the Operation the Wolfhounds were outmaneuvered by Lestonian Panzer Suits and suffered horrific casualties before being evacuated by allied forces. Due to the casualties sustained the 103rd was forced to rotate back to Elysia and accept a fresh stock of pilots and crewman to replenish the broken unit...


Character Creation Guide:
Hey there Panzer Knights, welcome to the front. As you know we're going out of character from here on out but don't get the wrong impression boot we're all business from here on. So get yer head on straight and listen up here's a helpful guide to help you make a character for this RP.

1. Ask Questions. Never be afraid to direct a question to General ToN. He's here for a reason and can help you out. Here's an example:

Subject: Sir, I have a question.
ToN: Go ahead I'm all ears.
Subject: So what is a Panzer Su-
ToN: READ THE GODDAMN INFODUMPS MAGGOT PIECE OF- *Censored*

This is a joke of course, ToN is a friendly nice guy who will not bite your head off. But this leads me to the next section.

2. READ THE SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS MAGGOTS! It's there for a reason, read it, love it, live it. Know it by heart there WILL be quizzes. ;
((Joking of course but for real many lore questions can be answered there))


3. Know your place. In this RP you will be RPing a member of the Royal Elysian Army, specifically the Panzer Knight Corps and your character will be part of the 103rd Panzer Division the Wolfhounds baby, finest in the Corps. You can RP a pilot or if that's not good enough for ya a member of the support staff(Medic, Engineer type stuff might give ya a vehicle to drive if your a good little maggot)).


4. Don't worry about hardcore military RPing. While authenticity is appreciated this RP does not exist for hardcore military RPing. However if you're unfamiliar with something or wanna figure out a more 'military' way to describe it feel free to ask comrade ToN. And if he doesn't know you're doomed. And don't worry about the exact organization of the 103rd I'll figure it out once I see peoples characters.

5. Have a complaint, idea and/or suggestion and wish to share? Refer to this song if you're confused what to do: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvCoPHe-hfU


6. DIVERSITY IS KEY. This RP is all about character interaction between each other and their reactions to events unfolding around them. This requires a diverse cast to make for an interesting experience. Test boundaries and create fun interesting characters. I'm an accepting person don't feel like you need to make anything in particular. Try to avoid 'Expies' what is an Expy you might ask? Look at something you watched/played/read recently and look at a character you liked from it. Does your character have a similar personality to this character? Have a voice kind of like this character? Now that you mention it they kinda look similar. They even have similar taste is fashion, food and... Oh my god you've created an Expy please place the expy in an open field and let the Elysian Air Force handle it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCnjWmtfvFo

Good job boys. Now that we've taken care of that let's get back to it. MAKE A ORIGINAL CHARACTER MAGGOT! ((For the record inspiration and using pre-existing characters as a image ref is FINE just try and make them somewhat original please))

7. Feel free to make any kind of character you want but keep in mind that Elysia is a country that hasn't been at war in CENTURIES. So the most combat experience you're character is gonna have is if they served in a fancy training exercise but all the training in the world can't make up for raw experience and the Lestonian Army has been fighting nonstop wars since the 90s so they have that in spades. This will be a trial by fire people don't try to make an ace pilot right off the bat.

8. There is a maximum character limit of 2 characters per RPer but 1 is generally recommended. You are free to create NPCs if you so wish but try to keep it within reason. For example if you have more NPCs than there are characters you have a problem. AND KEEP THEM ORIGINAL FOR GODS SAKE YA MAGGOTS I SWEAR TO GOD I'LL STOMP MY BOOT SO FAR UP YOUR-

Sorry *Ahem* Moooving right along...

9. Have fun and enjoy the RP. If you aren't having fun, there's a problem. You should report problems to your superior officer.

"Only the best and brightest can become Panzer suit operators. Only the best and brightest will succeed. Only the best and brightest will find acceptance."
-Nae Mi-Cha's mantra

Name: Nae Mi-Cha
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Height: 5'9"
Appearance: http://www.listofimages.com/wallpapers/2012/02/archer-girl-anime-archer-bow-cute-girl-long-hair-red-eyes-redjuice-sexy-white-hair-1350x2400.jpg
^Physical ref, not a clothing ref- clothing is generally typical of Elysian military, or just casual clothing in Bastian style
Birthplace: Dead Lands
Ethnicity: Bastian
Sexual Orientation: (Never divulged; recruit deemed it 'unnecessary information' even to herself)
Family: Mother (49, Nae Hae-Won), sister (14, Nae Ae-Cha), sister (7, Nae Soon-Hi )
Panzer Suit: EPS-14 Goshawk

Personality: Somewhat skittish and withdrawn, and incredibly high strung, Mi-Cha is known for her absolute perfectionism as a Panzer suit operator, pushing herself beyond all possible reasonable levels of determination and professionalism as if obsessed. This has its roots in her history, as well as the discrimination she has faced her entire life- Mi-Cha is convinced that the only way she can possibly achieve acceptance is to be utterly perfect in every way. This causes her to be somewhat aloof and distant from the others, and a bit of a taskmaster- and hides a great deal of internal torment over her personal history, secrets she hides about herself and her family, the pain of a life of discrimination for crimes committed long before her birth, and most especially of all... a desperate desire for acceptance, for affection, for feeling she has found a place she truly fits in, yet terrified of ever letting her guard down, of ever being less than perfect.

All this, which none would never guess at first glance at the obsessively perfectionist Mi-Cha, always the first to cite regulations and show up on time, always the most rigorous at maintenance and personal grooming, to the point of annoyance of all those around her for "making [them] look bad" in comparison and calling them out on any breaches of protocol whatsoever.

Bio: Born in one of the slums in the former Work Areas in the Dead Lands to a single mother, Nae Mi-Cha grew up surrounded by poverty and discrimination based on factors entirely outside her control, and it shaped her entire existence. Forged her in a way she internalized- only the most perfect could escape this, she reasoned, for only the most perfect could make the world overlook what she was.

With a younger sister already born, and a second on the way, the adolescent Mi-Cha had to find work to help support her growing family, managing to hitchhike outside the Dead Lands and into more vibrant areas, always sending back the bulk of her pay to her mother and two sisters (the youngest of which she has never met in person), eventually enrolling in the military, as the most stable source of employment despite the strong anti-Bastian sentiment still gripping Elysia. Becoming known as the strict, rules-obsessed perfectionist and terror of any slackers among her compatriots, none ever knew the extent of the origins of these traits, for none attempted to grow close to her, leaving Mi-Cha to further drive herself to perfectionism.

"There's a word in Eiglace specifically for those kind of stories... Jiral is what i think it was." -Aster Narn.
Name: Aster Narn
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Height: 6'1
Appearance:
Posted Image
Birthplace: Western Hestia
Ethnicity: Bastian
Sexual Orientation: Homosexual

Family:
Ganbar Drell [43] -Father (Deceased)
Dian Turth [52] -Step father
Alta Narn [51] -Mother
Malre Narn [24] -Older brother (Deceased)
Ral Aeose [25] -Family friend
Dastin Narn [12] -Younger brother
Lilii Narn [5] -Younger sister

Panzer Suit: EPS-1 Broadside

Personality: Aster has a very devil may care attitude, he doesn't go out of his way to impress people. He tends to keep his feelings to himself unless he's talking to someone he knows very well and he almost never shares any of his insecurities with anyone. He's a generally mellow person unless one of his favorite bands is involved and he's often been described as mature for his age. Though he tends to keep to himself Aster is very vocal about Bastian issues and he won't hesitate to speak out on them even if his better judgement says otherwise. His biggest insecurity is how hard its been for him to adjust to being in the military and he would do almost anything to hide that and the pain from the loss of his brother.

Bio: Aster was born in a small farming town in western Hestia the town was mostly Ylse and there were few other Bastian families there so since early childhood he's been highly aware of what the other races thought of Bastians. This became especially clear to him when on night he was walking home with his father when a man in a big truck suddenly swerved off the road onto the sidewalk screaming obscenities and racial slurs, his father barely managed to push him out of the way of the oncoming vehicle. it was ruled a drunk driving accident when the defendant had a record low blood alcohol content and Aster was declared to young to give accurate testimony.

After that he tended to isolate himself from other kids his age, he preferred to spend his time tending to his horse, playing video games, or writing music. For as long as he could remember he'd dreamed of being an Idol singer he learned to play the guitar wrote his own music and learning new dances. He would have never even considered joining the military over pursuing his dream if it hadn't been for the universal draft. He'd been one year shy of being drafted when the first one rolled through his town his brother Malre hadn't been as lucky as him and neither had nearly a third of the younger people in the town. At first he and his family tried to keep their hopes up awaiting his return after two years that was until the day they heard the news of the failed operation in Zipang. Aster and Ral were the only ones to read the condolences letter and they sorted through the belongings that had been sent back with it. After that everyone lived with the fear of the draft returning hanging over their heads, eventually he got tired of waiting for it so he went by himself to the recruitment office just to get it over with.

"Spare me the propaganda crap. I'm not here for queen and country. Just give me a Panzer Suit and watch me work."
-Keith.

Posted Image
Name: Keith Dunbar
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Height: 5'6"
Appearance: Keith is a fit man of average height with olive skin, messy dark hair and brown eyes. Tends to dress casually, even wearing his uniforms in a loose manner to make them more comfortable.
Birthplace: Balus
Ethnicity: Ylse
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual

Family:
Mitchell Dunbar [53] - Father
Grace Hills [50] - Mother
Yun Dunbar [48] - Step Mother
Luca Dunbar [18] - Sister
Marcus Dunbar [18] - Brother

Panzer Suit: EPS-10 Ridgeback

Personality: Free spirited and somewhat cocky in nature, Keith is usually rather laid back in nature keeping to himself and finding ways to keep entertained. But when challenged he is prone to being rather short tempered and can be rather aggressive at times. However most of the time he is rather friendly and attempts to engage those around him with humor and whatever amusement he can find. Can engage is sarcasm sometimes and is known to often engage in handing out nicknames to both people he likes and people he doesn't like. Keith often gives off an air of confidence and bravado over his skills as a Panzer Suit operator which ties into his cocky nature. Despite his rather carefree approach to life, Keith is not unreliable and does his best to carry his weight wherever he is deployed.

Bio: Keith Dunbar was born and raised in the Balus region, he grew up in Avalis City where he lived with his parents. But his childhood household became troubled when his mother and father divorced when his mother discovered that Keith's father was having an affair with a Bastian woman named Yun. Keith's mother left leaving behind Keith and his infant twin siblings, Keith despite his young age was infuriated by the turn of events and began running out from home taking to the streets. Over time both from school and roaming the streets Keith formed a large circle of friends who often hung out and raised trouble all across the city. Only going home to see his siblings and argue with his father and his new wife Yun the woman he had an affair with. Despite her efforts Keith never accepted his step mother and avoided his family only ever maintaining a close relationship with his siblings.

After graduating from the school, Keith and a group of close friends began touring the country driving across Elysia. But their tour was cut short when the war began and Keith received his draft orders due to the emergency universal conscription act. Keith reluctantly accepted the draft orders and entered the military where despite his rather suspect public record he showed surprising aptitude for the military and was selected for Panzer Knight training. Despite being an annoyance to his instructors, Keith showed potential as a pilot and unfortunately for them he knew it and often showed off his skill whenever possible. Keith found the military lifestyle agreed with him somewhat being able to travel and operate a Panzer Suit was the greatest excitement he could ask for and despite the war looming he's eager for a fight to prove himself.

"...You want to know what Angmun means?...... Aster called you that?! Why its a Bastian term of respect i assure you it means he holds you in the highest esteem!.... now where did you say he was?" -Ral trying to keep her dear younger brother out of trouble.
Name: Ral Aeose
Age: 25
Gender: Female
Height: 5'4
Appearance:

Birthplace: Born on Viridian Islands but has lived in Western Hestia since adolescents
Ethnicity: Viridia
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
Family:
Malre Narn [24] -Fiance (Deceased)
Aster Narn [17] -Brother in law
Alta Narn [51] -Mother in law
Dian Turth [52] -Father in law
Ganbar Drell [43] -Father in law (Deceased)
Dastin Narn [12] -Brother in law
Lilii Narn [5] -Sister in law

Panzer Suit: EPS-5 Indominus
Personality: Ral is a very independent person while she will respect most authority figures if she really feels they are in the wrong she won't hesitate to try and fight their decisions. She generally attempts to keep the peace and take a neutral stance in tense situations but she has an unapologetic tendency to play favorites to people she feels have earned it. She doesn't take kindly to people who try to force people to follow them with respect they haven't earned and she has a very strict moral compass. She is a very nurturing person she tends to try and not let people dwell on their mistakes if she can help them and she is quick to reach out to those in need. On the other side of this she has a very playful nature she loves participating in prank wars and friendly competitions, and she'll almost never back down from a bet.

Bio: Ral was born and raised on the Viridian Islands she was always very popular with her peers and was never lacking in companions however her closest friend had always been a Bastian girl named Eka whose family lived near hers. Ral and Eka were inseparable even when their other friends grew apart or split into different cliques they stuck by each other. However Ral's family wasn't as found of her Bastian friend as she was and they pressured Eka's family to move away from the Viridian Islands. When Ral found out what her parents had done she vowed never to forgive them and after finding out that Eka's family might have moved to Hestia she hoped on the back of a truck and set out after them.

Eventually she found her way to a small farming town in western Hestia, it was in that small farming town in westerns Hestia that she stumbled onto the Narn Family Farm. It was there that she met the Narn family a young Bastian couple and their two children. Though they were unable to locate Eka and her family for her the Narn family welcome her into their folds and so she began living and working for them. She and their two sons Aster and Malre grew especially she and Aster becoming as closer then your average set of siblings but she and Malre got close in a different way. As they got older Ral and Malre began to develop feelings for each other this eventually lead to the two getting engaged two months before the beginning of the universal draft.

Ral was originally rejected by the universal draft on account of an underlying health condition and so Malre went off to war alone. She was devastated when the news of his death was delivered and with the draft coming around again she feared Aster would be going after him. What she didn't expect as for this round of the draft to find her fit for military service and so she was sent off to training not long after Aster who had enlisted. Though she did well enough in training to be placed in the Panzer Knight corp she still dreads the day she has to apply these skills in a real combat situation.

"I know what you all have heard about me... I won't make any false promises. I don't expect you to like me and I'm not here to be your friend. Do your job and I'll do mine. If you can't handle that, get the hell out of my unit."
-Matilda.


Name: Matilda Bailey
Age: 28
Gender: Female
Height: 5'5"
Appearance:
Posted Image
Birthplace: Gamal
Ethnicity: Ylse
Sexual Orientation: Pansexual

Family:
Harold Bailey [57] - Father
Sarah Bailey [55] - Mother
Gwendoline Bailey [49] - Aunt
Eleanor Bailey [16] - Sister

Panzer Suit: EPS-10 Ridgeback

Personality: Matilda Bailey was once a model officer of the Panzer Knight Corps, well disciplined and a model soldier, an intelligent and capable officer she was well on her way to making a name for herself. That is until the disastrous Operation: Dividing Wind, after the failure of the operation Matilda fell into a deep depression and her once spotless reputation was forever lost and is continually ruined. In recent times Matilda has become a known alcoholic and often partakes in smoking even when it's not allowed in official regulations. Despite the loss of her discipline and unconventional approach to leadership, Matilda Bailey is still recognized for her skills as a military leader and is dedicated to ensuring that a tragedy like Dividing Wind never happens again. Matilda is a fair women and often doesn't judge those under her harshly, at times she can seem rather lax but will step in should something of great concern arise. However when it comes to combat, Matilda is strict and does not tolerate behaviors that could endanger others in combat and her orders are the law in the Wolfhounds. Despite the negative reputation she has acquired since Dividing Wind, Matilda has somewhat embraced it to ensure that she is seen as an officer to be respected even if it costs her image to those under her. Above all, Matilda wishes to see the end of the war as soon as possible to ensure that only a few have to witness the horror of war in particular her younger sister, Eleanor.

Bio: Matilda Bailey is the daughter of Admiral Harold Bailey the older brother of Elysia's Prime Minister Gwendoline Bailey. Coming from a prestigious family, Matilda lived a happy but expectant life where she was expected to follow in her family's footsteps and reach a high position in Elysian society. After graduating from school, she entered the Royal Elysian Military Academy where she studied both college education and military studies. Having grown fond of the military due to being around the Elysian Navy from trips with her father, Matilda decided to join the military herself and follow in his example. But Matilda did not join the Royal Navy, instead signing up for the Royal Army so she could have an opportunity to join the Royal Panzer Knight Corps. She was always fond of the Panzer Knights and their Suits as a child and was eager to join their ranks, after graduating from the Academy, she would achieve her dream and entered the Panzer Knight Corps with a handsome record accompanying her. She was the subject of much attention during her career due to being a Bailey, but she tried to forge her own reputation despite her name. Matilda's opportunity would come when the Lestonian Federation declared war on Elysia. By then Matilda had already reached the rank of Captain and was charged with a section of the 103rd Panzer Division.

Her first action would come during Operation: Dividing Wind, however her golden opportunity would end in tragedy when the superior Lestonian forces overwhelmed the joint allied forces and their assault was completely pushed back. Matilda struggled to hold together her forces but the Lestonians proved too skilled for them to handle and the 103rd endured heavy casualties, in order to save the unit from complete annihilation she was forced to abandon a group of her men to ensure the rest of the unit could escape. Even though they volunteered for the act, her actions were looked upon heavily when she returned. Of all the 103rd her unit took the heaviest casualties and her soldier's sacrifice only added to it. She was nicknamed 'The Butcher' by many of her peers and even some of those under her command. However Elysian High Command caught notice of her effective actions during the battle and she was allowed to remain in her position despite her reputation being tarnished. In recent times Matilda was selected to take in and train the fresh replacement members of the 103rd to prepare them for coming battles with the Lestonians where she will once again lead her Wolfhounds into battle.
