Frame: Jorge Silva is somewhat of a dwarf. Actually many people thing of him as a character right out of a fantasy novel, he is quite short. However his shoulders are wide. His biceps are large due to his habit of working out. He has curly black hair, a small fat nose, hazel green eyes, his hands are small and his fingers are quite chubby.
Personality: He is a person who likes to work on problems with his hands, he loves to solve crosswords or puzzles. He also in his spare time likes to play soccer when he has the chance. Silva is a big talker, and is not afraid to disagree with his superiors when he thinks another solution can be found. When the subject of his sister Olivia comes up he often shys away from it, because of all the pain he went through watching her slowly die.
History: Born on March 16, 3333 in New Madrid, Hadamard. Jorge grew up with two older sisters, Oliva and Isabella. They had a medium size home in New Madrid and actually lived on the outskirts of the city. Jorge's father was a business Representative of the mega corporation: Human Corporation to the planet of Hadamard. He would consult with the local government for the company to build factories, and other enterprises for New Madrid, The Human Corporation was a corporation that owned anything that was not under the control of the government or the military. His mother was a supervisor of the city's hydraulic based power plant. As he grew up, Jorge was a avid sportsman, mainly Spanish sports, especially soccer. His sisters on the other hand liked to wind surf off the coast of New Madrid, and they were very active in sports as well.
Through out his high school years, he tried out for the soccer team as a goalie, and his team eventually won in the New Madrid champion games. After high school, he decided to try and get into college in Oalso the Planet's Capital. But when his sister Oliva came down with a new kind of virus that swept across the planet, he returned to the place he grew up and had to see his sister pass away. It was at that moment when he wanted to do something with his life. He didn't want to just go to college, he wanted to help other people and hopefully bring himself some rest. He didn't feel patriotic, but he wanted to give something back to people, he in a way felt that it was his fault that she had died even though it wasn't
He signed up at his local recruitment office a few months later. When he signed on, he was sent to Sanctuary and trained for six months. After he graduated from boot camp, he was signed on with the Valiant Souls Company. He was a private at that time and was stationed aboard the starship Pure Judgment The missions they went on were small scale, usually riots at the inner colonies. However the mission that earned him to be promoted him to Corporal, was the Mordia incident. A local Governor of the planet used his local police force as a paramilitary organization. Over time it became a problem for the planet when the paramilitary forces seized a Human Corp space station. The company demanded something be done. Silva's unit as well as other elements moved in to capture the Governor in New Shanghai.
The mission was almost a disaster, a mole told the paramilitary forces where his unit would be landing and as a consequence many elements of his unit was destroyed, mainly the heavy weapons they brought. However in the initial chaos, the Platoon Leader was killed. Jorge took what was left of the rest of the team and broke through the paramilitary forces and the Governor was captured. He was not the one for the success however it was a military effort not the effort of him. Other Forces arrived to help out his own dwindling force.
After that experience, Silva was promoted to Staff Sergeant and was reassigned to the 32nd Regiment Special Drop Corps.
Sample Roleplay: The pod closed shut, and the screen came alive. It was like a mirror, he could see what he looked like in his armor. To put it bluntly, he was scared as hell from what he saw. "Drop in five, four" the automated computer in his ear piece announced. Silva started to think about why he joined, and saw Oliva's face. He smiled. "One. Launch!" The pod then slammed downward and the force jerked him back. He closed his eyes as he was launched he didn't mind the free fall, but the force of the launch is what shook him the most.
Then he saw Force Leader Chin appear on the small screen in his pod. "Ok listen up, the 109th and 354th are covering our two flanks, we drop right in the middle of the Forrest. The objective is five clicks away and since we're dropping in at night and the distraction that we have going on with the space station that Human Corp owns, there should be less resistance. That does not imply that there will not be any resistance, rest assured the local forces here are well armed. They may not have a navy but they sure as hell can take a small police force and turn it into a ground based military. Don't take them for rookies, these are pros."
