CHARACTER: Manfred "Specter" Vaeris | OC | [personal profile] skyknightone
CHARACTER AND AU SUMMARY: A former mercenary ace fighter pilot, now turned full-time employed pilot for Daybreak Academy. Manfred Vaeris, callsign "Specter," earned a reputation at being the best modern day mundane fighter pilot, commanding an elite group of ragtag pilots known as the SkyKnights. Deployed all over the world, they saw action in a wide swath of places... until at one point they ended up making a veil piercing discovery. Over the skies of Altea, they encountered a group of hostile dragons. Having survived their encounter, the SkyKnights were confronted later by a group sent by the UN to ensure their silence peacefully. Somewhat at a loss about what it meant for them, the group was shortly thereafter approached by Daybreak Academy, headhunted for their piloting skills. Offered an incredibly lucrative contract, incredible benefits, and the chance to fly the most state of the art magical aircraft around, the SkyKnights took the deal, essentially incorporating under the Academy as employees.

Manfred has now been working for the Academy for about five years, and is the foremost Rune Wing pilot in the fleet. Having served as both a dropship and fighter pilot for the Academy, odds are, if you got dropped into a hot zone, Manfred may well have served as your pilot or your escort. Doubly so if you took a trip with Valvatorez at any point; there's quite a friendship between the two, and Manfred is the vampire's preferred pilot for all manner of business. At some point during his time with the Academy, he adopted a girl named Celia, and is also a full-time father to her at this point.

A mostly mundane man at the time of his employment, but he has taken the opportunities Daybreak has given him to improve his education and learn some magic and runic engineering. Is a capable Light Mage in a pinch, but he'd rather be flying. While on mission, Manfred is quite serious, disciplined, and professional, and his skill is incredible. He might come off cold or aloof at those times. On the ground and while off duty, he's friendly, approachable, and good-natured.

WHAT I WANT: Coworkers, friends among staff, fellow pilots (either aircraft or vehicles), and people to joke around with. Odds are, he's probably been part of off-screen faculty night shenanigans along with members of his team. That is, unless he had to leave early to make sure Celia got to bed on time. Throw people at the guy, is what I'm saying.
