Futuristic EDENSEED - The Genesian War OOC

"Subject 036, Codename Andarta. Welcome to Sector 11." The woman carried herself confidently, back straight and chin held high, reminiscent of one who has spent significant years in the military. Eurica's eyes drifted up to hold the woman's emerald gaze, which she held just a moment longer. Something unspoken passed from one woman to the other, as Eurica let out a barely perceptible air of breath. They'd both lost much back then. Not just fellow countrymen, but dear loved ones. Perhaps they had been over it, but wounds to the heart are always remembered forever. Woe to those who dared strike such a blow.

Satisfied with what she saw, Eurica nodded wordlessly and turned to lead the way.

Oh man...that's what I get for designing a weapon at midnight. It was supposed to say "fire-and-forget", but I managed to make that redundant with the rest of the description...whoops. Got the weapons/abilities all fixed up, and added a 'U' to Aquilla's last name (so I don't manage to misspell my own characters last name every time I write it).

"Subject 036, Codename Andarta. Welcome to Sector 11."

The corner of Gabrielle's lips twitched upwards at the welcome before she met Dr. Sterne's meaningful gaze. Grief reared its ugly head in the back of her mind, making Gabrielle forcefully stifle a shiver that threatened to run down her spine as she took a moment to remember the fallen, all the while keeping eye contact.

When the doctor nodded and turned away, the brunette let her face fall for a second, feeling uneasy at the sudden reminder of what the Confederation took from them. It wasn't that she had forgotten, no. Oh no, she would never forget, that's a fact. She just hasn't had to deal with it so openly and with another person in a while. Taking a calming breath, Gabrielle let out the same breath, composed and with her features and posture carefully neutral as she fell in step behind the doctor.

Soulmuse I just have to say I love the touch of the field brevet commission for Aquila!

And hey... since Aquila and Gab are the same age, they would have began boot camp at the same time... Reckon we can think of something that somehow connects the two of them? Maybe a couple of interactions before separating for MOS school?

Definitely. They also might have run into each other prior to boot camp, since they are both from military families.

Oh definitely, yeah. So there really is bound to be some familiarity between the two!

For sure. Not sure if it'd be enough for them to keep in contact outside of occasionally seeing each other, and boot camp.

Miranda Academy is pretty much a full boarding school. And while bootcamp begins at age 15, they would have pretty standard (if slightly more advanced) education earlier on at the Academy and up till 17, where some who choose to go full time in the military would be away for longer periods of time. Those that stay back will be taught in other research Academy's or subjects according to their choice.


Gosh, that post took out so much from me. For now it'll all just be prologue introduction Soulmuse Alecto CkSmalling KhazTheGiraffe So feel free to get in a couple of posts doing whatever, we're on pretty much the day before our first mission briefing. I'll allow time for people to get in several posts each. Hopefully by next week we can begin Chapt 1. Everyone may or may not have met each other prior to this, but everyone would've definitely met Eurica.

She remembered her. The girl from Delta 5, one of the few Kasaian squads that stayed back till the very end at Ardennais. They were acquainted during the retreat out from Ardennais back to Sentinel. It was only then, did Eurica realize that Aquilla was her junior back at the Academy.

Everyone gave it their all for Ardennais and the Union, for that she was eternally grateful. Their all wasn't enough then. But they had more to give this time, and they sure as hell won't stop until victory was in their hands.

"Subject 092, Fenrir." Eurica offered her a handshake. "I'm Guinevere... Glad to have you join us in Sector 11, Edenknight."

As she led the way along the hallways of Sector 11, Eurica turned to speak over her shoulder. "I understand you haven't found a place to stay here at Sentinel, as of yet. If you'd like, I have ample spare rooms at my apartment. Or if you'd prefer, I'm sure I can arrange something for you in the Opal Quarter's military wing."


EDIT: OKAY I'VE DONE ENUF WRITING TODAY! HF GUYS Looking forward to this!!

Aquilla accepted the handshake with a nod. "It is good to be here." A chance to bring the war to an end faster was one she had to take. Especially one that might prevent anyone else from feeling that same horror she had, in those first days of seeing walkers crossing the horizons. This was their chance for victory. Or, at least, a better chance than sitting around in the command center in Kasai.

"If you have a room to spare, I would appreciate that." She bit down a snort. It wasn't likely the locals would appreciate some Kasian showing up. The fact she was on the front lines fighting with the rest. A familiar face, or at least, voice, seemed like far better company than soldiers she didn't know, and more than likely wouldn't appreciate her presence.

Oh, this is good to know. I don't think I have to change anything in Gab's background to accommodate this fact. Not gonna lie, I kinda figured that they'd be kinda tutored one-by-one or small groups, as opposed to 'normal' school, I don't know why Exactly how old would they be when they're enrolled to the academy or is it determined by the manifestation of their seventh senses?

It was a good post, Brent! I'll wait until tomorrow to post, I'm a bit off my axis.

Edit: oh you meant the Ardennaian Cross!

Oh and uh I meant Aquila's field promotion to a commanding officer. She was enlisted prior to the chain of command falling during the Ardennais siege, or at least that's how I understood it at least. I'm also not quite sure how commissioning works in-universe - should have asked, lmao - so I just went with how I know it works.

Yup, she was enlisted originally. I probably should have figured out what her initial rank was, now that I think about it.

If it helps, spotters are usually SNCOs, so her paygrade would be OR-6 (SSgt) and above in calmer times, if I remember correctly? But since the war does break out, I'd say maybe she'd get the brevet at an OR-5 (Sgt) or OR-4 (Cpl, not Spc) paygrade.

Oh you're kinda right! When i mentioned boarding school i meant in the sense that they'd be living within the Academy itself. Perhaps having weekends off or something. They'd be taught in small classes but only for normal education subjects. When it comes to things pertaining to their 7th sense, it'll be more 1on1 or small groups as you mentioned

All splyced children are born with the vein markers, so they are codexed since birth. When they reach schooling age, they will have to be sent for followups at academy branches in the various cities they belong to. Then at 12 (is that middle school?) They are enrolled fully into the academy, whether or not their 7th sense has displayed. Those whose sense has manifested earlier than that will likely have to go to the academy earlier.

On the question of officer titles. You guys are probably right. I have no clue in all honesty, so i wouldn't even want to pretend i know how it works in the edenseed universe LOL! I'll leave it to you guys.

Probably would make her an OR-4(Cpl) then. Her field brevet would be OF-1 (2nd Lieutenant). Although by the Seige of Ardennais she was probably about doing the job of a 1st Lieutenant.

I'll get a post up in the morning. I probably should be getting sleep sometime in the near future.

Feel free to have aquilla wake up in some spare room at eurica's place. You may interact with her or presume she has already left for pancakes (but that's be rude out me lol!). Spare key on the kitchen table thanks!

 

[Lekiel]

Or maybe she was out drinking the whole night! Is aquilla that kind of person? Haha!

Anyways, I'll leave it to you.

Nah, Aquilla and booze don't mix all that well. If you could even get her in a bar...
