Taking a stab in the CCG-assisted dark here on my first character. Who knows how close this is to what it needs to be. This is for the war plot, so I feel the generally grim and probably short-lived nature of the character is justified, but I could be quite wrong there.

Name: Onishi Halla

General Information
Species: Nekovalkyrja NH-17
Gender: Female

Distinguishing Features: Standard genetic "tattoo" on left breast; otherwise largely indistinguishable from other NH-17s.

Psychological Characteristics
Personality:
Halla has been noted to possess a curiously fervent devotion to her purpose in life. Far beyond any sort of basic loyalty, she has developed a crusader's zeal, so determined to fulfill her role as a defender of the Yamatai Star Empire that occasional psych evaluations have even gone so far as to deem her "suicidally fearless." Unfortunately, this degree of focus seems to have a profound effect on her natural creativity; unlike most nekos produced, she is considerably less flexible and prone to bouts of frustration when not given specific orders. Her ambition, such as it is, is to devote herself ever more to her duty.

It is perhaps morbidly appropriate that she fits the profile of a Mindy pilot almost perfectly: brave, focused, and intensely loyal to her superiors. However, her stunted self-preservation instinct and lack of leadership capabilities has been observed to be a sign of a likely war casualty, or at the very least little more than a grunt. A recent and entirely unofficial evaluation (and, it has been rumored, a bet) has given her a 20% chance of actually seeing her fifth year. For her part, Halla seems entirely uninterested in proving this wrong; she has few illusions and even fewer doubts of what her duty to the Star Army may eventually require of her. One might even say she has a certain eagerness...

Likes: Reading, Exercise, Being Told What To Do.
Dislikes: People Acting Indirect, Problems Without Clear Solutions.
Goals: Serve the Star Army loyally according to her proscribed functions.

History
Onishi Halla is one of the untold multitudes of Nekovalkyrja NH-17s produced for the Yamatai Star Army. Although technically an "older" model at this point, her military career has been rather brief, having only begun earnestly fulfilling a career as a pilot. The exact reasons for this are unclear, but may relate to poor evaluations during her developmental stage suggesting she was below average in vital areas such as leadership and dynamic thinking. Consequently, she was eventually relegated to a minor maintenance job in a starport, overseeing and assisting in docking operations. Although this work was actually fairly difficult in one sense, Halla nevertheless found it disappointingly "menial" and began requesting (some might say pleading for) transfers or reevaluation. Realizing that her apparent lack of creativity and deference to authority was more a sign of a sort of childlike loyalty to a "parent" (the Yamatai Star Empire in its entirety, apparently) than a sign of mental inferiority, and it was suggested that a Mindy might be the right fit for someone of her disposition. Halla was removed from her position for retraining and has only recently found herself processed into an actual combat duty, four largely empty and frustrating years after her manufacture.


Skills:

Communication: Basic transmission by radio and in combat and non-combat conditions, in various receiver forms, particularly power armor. Fluent in English and Japanese, and able to read, write, and process complex operations in each. Standard Nekovalkyrja telepathy.

Domestic: Obsessively neat, Halla spends a distressing amount of free time cleaning, organizing things, making beds, and doing laundry. Outside military conditions this degree of precision would probably be considered a disorder, but her "extra attention to detail" is reinforced as a result of her occupation.

Fighting and Physical: As with most nekos, Halla has been more or less instinctively taught to fight through standard learning uploads. Additional training has helped hone her hand-to-hand, light weapon, and power armor skills in specified combat conditions (Yamatai-like and zero-gravity theaters). Additional conditioning and training in the piloting of power armor has enhanced her abilities in that area beyond basic operation. As the power armor "feels natural" anyway, it would be difficult to explain any sort of advanced proficiency, short of simple extra exposure to the systems and weaponry.

Information Technology: Capable of operating any computer system that uses the Kessaku OS, found on all Star Army starships. She is proficient in entering and/or searching for information - and strictly that, proficient. Halla has all the skill of a standard Nekovalkyrja military trainee, and not much more.

Maintenance & Repair: Halla spent her formative years in a technical role and retains her direct work experience in that capacity. She can make simple mechanical and electronic repairs, both in home and field conditions, of most standard-issue hand weapons, communications devices, etc. She is mostly familiar with starport maintenance but is capable of adapting some of what she knows to starship conditions. In most cases, however, she prefers not to touch anything that she hasn't specifically been asked to look at.

Mathematics: Halla is trained to be proficient in all standard mathematics, with a strictly average degree of competency in higher-order mathematics essential to her duty. Generally tends to score extremely high on examinations testing geometry and spatial relations, possibly due to extensive use of three dimensions in combat conditions.

Starship Operations: Besides basic operational training aboard starships standard to NH-17s, Halla is entirely capable of overseeing and performing docking operations between starships and their bases, as well as starship-to-starship docking. With a little instruction she could probably handle internal docking of smaller craft, mecha, and so forth when necessary.
 
History is detailed, but it's not too bad. The personality is good for a combat RP. It should be interesting. Nice job.
 
Looks perfect to me, too. I'm very impressed.

I've posted orders for the Mikomi.
