Official Earth Federation Personnel File #18268326: For Officer use only
Name: Alex Sentara
Age: 26
Eye Color: Hazel
Hair Color: Blond
Ethnicity: Mixed
Division: Earth Federation Space Forces
Rank: Officer Candidate
Unit: Saberfish II
Special Skills: Alex is extremely tech savvy. He is skilled with Japanese martial weapons, and more specifically the Naginata. His physique suggests a history of manual labor. After losing his right arm, he was forced to learn to use his left. This allowed him to be ambidextrous when he received the prosthetic.
Biography: Alex has the presence of a strong military background. For several generations, there have been nothing but jet pilots from the Sentara family line. His grandfather even piloted Raptors for the United States Air Forces.
As for his personal past, there is not much to say about Alex Sentara. He was your typical student, graduated in the top 10% of his class at Oxford. Before moving to England, he grew up in the states. He returned to the states due to the trouble of finding a job. With the overpopulation occurring on earth, there was so much competition in the market, and ironically he found himself joining the Earth Federation Air Forces even with his masters. It was a nice starting bonus though, and he didn't mind because it was in his blood.
Alex's superiors agree that if had only put in more effort or adjusted his attitude slightly, he would have achieved the rank of an officer. Alex couldn't care regardless for he'd rather not have the responsibilities or draw even more attention to himself.
Combat Experience: Prior to piloting the Saberfish II, Alex's piloting experience came from piloting a Tin Cod from the 60's rearmament program. After showing sudden outbursts of improvement in combat, he was transferred to the Space Forces due to the dire need of skilled pilots. He received a rank increase, cash bonus and a Saberfish. After participating in several memorable sorties in the space front, and surviving, he was promoted once again and given the improved Saberfish II. He was even requested to pilot the G-Armor but declined due to his dislike in the design. His vast knowledge of the war on both fronts, and his experience from such events as the battle of luum has made him a rare commodity, a diamond in the rough so to speak. Most men give him the respect of grizzled veteran, but he shows no interest either way.
Personality: Alex can be pretty easy going at times, and sporadic at other times. He is extremely flirtatious, especially in the presence of a female opponent. His flirts serve a second purpose, which is to catch his opposition off guard and perhaps familiarize himself with his enemy in hopes of not returning in a body bag.
Points of Mention:
- Alex may sometimes refer to himself as "Alexander the Great"
- Noting the fact that he is considered a veteran, Alex mocks this continuously with such remarks as "Back in my day..." or "I'm getting too old for this."
- One of Alex's distinguishing physical features is his stainless steel prosthetic arm. To this day he will not reveal how he lost his right arm and will keep people guessing. He had turned this into a game of sorts, letting fellow pilots make bets on their theories. None have succeeded thus far. It also doesn't help that in the past, whenever Alex was asked about his arm, he had made something up. His favorite rumor involves him losing his arm to the mafia.
