Inactive Member
Name: Matthew Lionheart
General Information
Species: Nepleslian
Gender: Male
Age: 21 years
Family / Creators: Leonard Lionheart: age 59 (Father) James Lionheart: age 55 (Uncle)
Employer: Star Army of Nepleslia
Occupation: Computer System Officer
Rank: Cadet 1st Grade
Current Assignment: N/A
Physical Characteristics
Height: 5'11" (180 cm.)
Weight: 154 lbs (70 kg.)
Measurements: N/A
Bra Size: N/A
Build and Skin Colour: Matthew's body is medium built with a light tan pigmentation from occasionally outside. He's not excessively muscular, but he's been conditioned enough in his training to not be snubbed off.
Facial Features and Eye Colour: A squarish face with a somewhat powerful jawline, Matt has a neatly-trimmed, beard that remains nearly 3/8th inch in height. A neatly-trimmed mustache covers his upper lip and leads around his mouth towards his beard. He also has chocolate-brown eyes with seem to twinkle when ever he is in front of a computer.
Hair Colour and Style: Keeping his hair within military regulations, Matthew keeps his brown hair cropped short, yet longer than most military men. It's not long enough to have to be tied back, but it can definitely get unruly if not properly groomed.
Distinguishing Features: Behind his right ear is a small wireless/wire connection port that allows Matt to physically connect to a computer system. This connection port is then connected to a series of implants: a translation implant and a short-term memory system.
The translation implant does what its name implies. It translates electronic data of various forms into data the memory system can read. It takes time to translate the data though so there is a lag in the information as it goes from the computer system to the connection port to the memory system.
The short-term memory implant works more effectively with the translation implant and connection port than with Matt's physical senses. In fact, Matthew has to rely more on his natural short-term memory when he hears, tastes, and smells. His eyes, on the other hand, work decently with the short-term memory implant and allows him to read and remember pretty well. The implant is set up so that it will replay the information it has collected over and over again until it is 'digested' by his natural long-term memory.
Psychological Characteristics
Personality:
Formerly an anti-social person, Matthew has had no choice but to come out of it and become social in order to survive the Academy. For the most part, he is still a quiet and laid back individual, preferring to sit back and watch how others interact with one another. After a while, he may or may not get involved in the conversation. His conversation and social skills however are sub-par at best, meaning talking to the lad is very awkward. Computer systems on the other hand are his speciality, his forte. Sit him down in front of a computer and he will go to town. Ask him what he is doing and he will gratefully tell you...the only problem at this point is shutting him up once he's started. On the upside, he is willing to let almost anything slide. Unfortunately, if someone ends up making him angry, they could find out later on that everything about them has been erased (including their bank account).
Likes: Using Computers and reading novels.
Dislikes: Computer illiterates and people who push him around.
Goals: To find more challenging computers to hack into.
History
Born into the world as a clone of his father, Matthew was raised by his uncle James during his early childhood due to the fact his father was an engineer on a civilian freighter. James, on the other hand, was a computer systems expert and well-versed in their operation and usage. This knowledge was actually taught to Matthew as he grew up. Not much successful at making friends, Matthew actually turned more to computers as he grew. It had first started as innocent tinkering of hardware, but soon it nearly became an obsession with the young lad. He started learning programming, hardware repair, troubleshooting, anything dealing with computers he tried to learn.
At the age of thirteen however, Leonard returned to find his son at near obsession about computers. Though he had visited on and off during his son's life, spending time with him as much as he could, he hadn't realized fully how his son was. To correct this, he took his son on his next trip off Nepleslia.
Though it did break Matthew from his obsession, the young lad only studied more about computers. It was just that he had to help work on the ship in order for his father to keep him onboard. He first tried being the janitor, but failing at that and with the threat of being kicked off at the next stop, Matthew showed them his skills in computers, which was very little and basic at the time. However, it was just enough to become apprenticed to the computer systems technician onboard.
With the technicians help, Matthew's knowledge in computer systems expanded. At the age of sixteen, the young lad was cybernetically enhanced with specialized equipment in order to continue helping his father and the freighter. With a system of connection device, translator, and short-term memory system, giving Matthew the ability to connect to computer systems both physically and wirelessly.
Though he was out for a few weeks as he healed, the young Lionheart came back better than ever, with a little bit of a learning curve due to having to get used to his implants. Also at this time, he began experimenting with computer viri and using computer systems in concert with communications systems.
It started mainly with a system hack here and there, all minor computer systems with weak defenses. But soon, Matt became bolder and more experienced, hacking into civilian databases with more powerful firewalls and anti-virus software. He all kept it to a minimum though, knowing full well that if he did too much that he could get into serious trouble.
Matt returned to Nepleslia at the age of eighteen to a changing structure. The news going around seemed to pull Matt's attention towards not becoming a member of his father's freighter, but joining the military. But what really sealed the deal was the thought of being able to hack into systems freely...with orders of course. With that thought in mind, Matthew decided to join the Academy on Nepleslia. After all, why be an enlisted when you can get a higher education and become an officer.
But the Academy was much more different than he expected. No longer could he go through life as an anti-social. He actually had to be social in order to survive. Slowly, the young Lionheart began to join small groups of people with limited success...but limited success was better than total failure. After a rigorous training program, Matthew graduated the Academy as a slight above average student.
Roleplay History:
Assigned to the new NSS Alliance as the Computer Specialist, Matthew had his first taste of being on a military ship. Performing more as the ships operator than the computer specialist for the Alliance's first mission, Matthew believes he's come out of it with some good experiences of real life situations. He's yet to see real combat, as it face to face or ship to ship, but he's at least had the chance for target practice.
Skills
Communications: Though trained in the use of a ships communications systems, Matthew normally used a communications system of some sort to hack into other computers even before join Star Army. Because of this, he is adept not only at sending and receiving transmissions, but also the encryption and decryption of transmission (with the right equipment of course). He is only well-versed in the basic and technical forms of communication system, primitive ones (such as lights and gestures) escape his notice quite easily. The only language Matt is fluent in is English, but he does understand Japanese due to his childhood experiences. He can also do the basic formatting and creation necessary for reports and other military paper work.
Fighting: Most of Matthew's conditioning for combat directly comes from the Star Army with its basic training in hand-to-hand combat for Nepleslia-like and Zero-G environments as well as its weapons training in pistols, knives, and power armor.
Humanities: In an effort to try and be more social, Matthew took a course in basic psychology in an effort to try and understand his peers. Though all it did was make him seem even more weird.
Information Technology: Coming from an hacker background pretty much guarantees that you know something about computer systems. With the knowledge of how to work a variety of computer systems and OS-types, Matthew is well-versed in the operations of both hardware and software. With the ability to quickly input and search for computer-stored information both physically and with his implant, he can easily find anomolies in both data and hardware as well as the ability to correct both. With his experience as a hacker, also comes the knowledge of how to counter hackers and intrusions into computer systems. He has little to no experience with Artificial Intelligence at the moment, but he has studied briefly on it at the academy.
Knowledge: Matthew has a basic understand of how starships operate due to his childhood with his father, but courses at the academy help too. He knows the controls and how their basic operation is, but isn't completely experienced with them. He has a grasp of Nespleslia history and law, as well as the military versions of the two, and he knows enough to behave himself.
Leadership: Though not necessarily his strong suit, Matthew has taken courses in public speaking and a variety of other leadership courses to prepare him to become an officer.
Mathematics: In order to work on computers the way he does, Matthew has studied more than just the Basic Mathematics of Algebra and Trignometry. Having to study Calculus and Liner Algebra as well other higher mathematics, Matt's knowledge of Math would definitely exceed the average soldier's.
