Name: Leon Jackson

Alias: None

Gender: Male

Age: 38

Appearance:


Bio: Leon was a colonist on the planet Miranda, in orbit around the protostar Burnham, the eighth and final planet in the Blue Sun system. Miranda was as far from the Core as one could get. There were 30 million colonists ready to settle in on Miranda, including Leon and his wife and son.

Leon had dedicated his life to serving the Alliance, the most stable option in his opinion. He ran trading runs from the Alliance planets in the Core to the Alliance-controlled planets in the Rim, avoiding pirates whenever possible or bringing an Alliance escort whenever necessary. When he was offered the opportunity to settle on a new planet, he immediately took the opportunity. He saw this as his reward for having served the Alliance so faithfully through the years.

In the middle of his last run, a supply train from Ariel to Miranda, the Alliance reported that they had lost contact with Miranda. Leon, still on Ariel, demanded to know what had happened. They told him that the terraforming had failed, and that none had survived. They told him he was lucky.

Leon spent the next 14 years avoiding the Alliance. Rejecting their offers to continue his previous job, Leon moves to Lilac, a moon of New Canaan, the second planet of the Blue Sun system. The planet is close enough as he dares go to Miranda, though he can’t bear leaving the system permanently. When the Reavers show up in the area, Leon offered his services to those who tried to repel them, be it pirates or local militia.

It didn’t take long for the local populace to realize that the Reavers were too strong. And the Alliance refused to recognize their existence, meaning they would receive to help. After a few years of futile fighting and lucky escapes, Leon settles down again on Ariel.
Fourteen years after the death of his family on Miranda, a broadcast is sent through the ‘Verse, proving the Alliance’s involvement with the deaths of the 30 million colonists. Leon immediately goes in search of those who had sent out the broadcast, determined to extract revenge for his family, and for being betrayed by those he had spent his entire life serving.

Should we move this out of one on ones?

[Sighlent]

Well it's still technically a private Roleplay right?

[Gadreille]

I don't know. I wouldn't mind if others want to jump in, but I'm also cool with it being the four of us.

[Sighlent]

-Shrugs-

It's totally up to the MOD.

[Gunneh]

My choice? But I can't even move the thread XD I'll leave it up to you guys to decide and then I'll contact the right people XD

[Gunneh]

Please note that any of the NPCs can be played by anyone, so no one really has to wait lol Joe, however, is mine for right now

[Guest]

I want to wait for Sighlent, at least.

[Sighlent]

I'm working on it! I promise. I've just got to think up something first. Lol.

EDIT: I hope my post was ok!

[Sighlent]

What I've been working on for the past...oh two or so hours:



Hope you guys like it!!!

[Guest]

Wow! That's awesome!

[Sighlent]

You like it?

FYI I had to seriously edit that guys hair because all the pictures you can seem to find of him, he has long hair.

[Guest]

Yeah...thats why I went with the picture I have. It was the only one I liked. And it fits...because...I can say it was taken after a fight with Reavers...or something like that.

[Sighlent]

Yeah. Well I need a body shot... so I had to compromise.

[Guest]

It still looks good

I might not post until tomorrow. I don't know. Can't get my mind off of the stupid presentation I have tomorrow, and I keep telling myself I should be practicing for it. But I can't make myself do it. So sorry if it takes a day or two for me to post.

[Sighlent]

That's fine by me, it's just Gunneh you have to worry about.

[Guest]

And my wife...but if she gets mad I will just sacrifice Taeo time to get a post in

[Gadreille]

Awesome Sigh! I posted it up in place of the serenity image

Edit: so Silv was working on a post and the whole thing erased....He's likely not going to cool off about til after class

[Sighlent]

Wow that sucks! We all know how that is though. When it happens to me, I get so angry!!! Sorry Silvone.

[Guest]

Well, I've been gone all day, my son just went to sleep, I have to get up early in the morning, and we've got errands to run most of the day tomorrow. If I'm lucky, I will find time to post sometime during all of that. If not, expect a post sometime after work.

I apologize, Ryona. I know this is why you didn't want me to join in the first place. But if it gets too bad, we can just kill of my character

[Sighlent]

Or make him a NPC.

It's ok Silvone. Sometimes life gets in the way. We all know that!

[Gadreille]

Since Sigh directed her character at you, Gunneh, go ahead and post. We'll go on without Silv until he has time to post.

[Guest]

Just so you know, Ryona, the pic Sighlent made that you put on the front page cuts off Leon and the weapon's guy.

Edit: Working on my post now.

[Sighlent]

Since Sigh directed her character at you, Gunneh, go ahead and post. We'll go on without Silv until he has time to post.

Sorry Ry! I just thought it was logical for my character to ask permission before we actually left. Don't worry. I plan on her making it up later!

[Guest]

Alright...sorry if what I wrote doesn't fit Zee's character. I can change it if anyone doesn't really like it. Its late...and I just couldn't seem to write what I had in mind before. I completely lost it...literally and figuratively

So I went with what came to me at midnight. Hopefully it works.

[Sighlent]

I thought it was very nice! Zee's personality is more of a goof, but I can see him getting defensive of the Dodger. So I don't think there's anything wrong with him at all.

Very nice, Silvone.

[Guest]

Yeah, I figured he would have reason to be defensive after what just happened on Hera. Any chance of a surprise visit by the Alliance is the last thing anyone wants. Especially if it is a spy.

[Guest]

So...I really hope that me joining didn't kill this... If it did, I can leave.

[Gunneh]

Nope lol I've just been busy the last couple of days. I'm thinking of a post right now, actually.

[Guest]

Yeah...I know its my turn, but I've been gone, and its my wife's birthday weekend, so I will post as soon as the opportunity arises.
