Date: November 16th, 2378.
The nights are drawing in and the weather is getting colder. For the first year cadets though, it's time to dig out the sunglasses, because they're off to a field trip to Mars! What will await the cadets when they get there? Only time will tell.
Back on Earth, the Preparatory School students have been extended an invitation to go and tour the main Academy campus. Will they take up the chance to go and see where they might end up in the future? And what will they think of it if they do?

Cadet Sirikajresth th'Zthel « Thread Started on Nov 5, 2009, 3:57am »
Second Cadet character for Crimea River (player of Cadet Freshman-Grade Kalath Da'Kar and Prep Student Jamilan Kelain. Will be replacing "Miral Tr'Brook").
Character's Name: Sirikajresth th'Zthel (nicknamed as "Est") Age: 20 Birthplace: USA, Earth (Statesville, NC) (We have a human from Andoria and an Andorian from Earth - imagine that! I wasn't thinking about that when I decided). Gender: Thaan (roughly translates to Male); Neuter Career track: He is deciding between Command and CONN.
Physical Profile: Typical Andorian male, with blue skin, blue eyes, his ever-important antennae, and white hair. This Andorian's slender appearance betrays his great strength, and he stands at about 5'9" and weighing about 150 pounds. Rarely is he seen out of his uniform; he usually wears Andorian fashion when dressed casually, however.
Personality: Est is an extremely disciplined individual, and he is dedicated to his people, the Federation, and Starfleet. He will never betray them, and his sense of duty comes first. When he has a goal, he is determined to fulfill it, and usually his goals have to do with duty. He rarely pursues pleasure, though nature is a fondness of his as is exploration and learning of new cultures and ecosystems – thus he is pursuing a minor in the Sciences. He aspires to be a pilot or someday a captain, but he hasn’t completely decided on his track.
He sometimes has violent tendencies and heightened emotions, but these he hides well. He may appear emotionless and indifferent much of the time. He has a “personal bubble” and doesn’t like it when people breach it without warning – partially because he fears that someone will touch his antennae. Regardless, he seeks friendship, though it might not outwardly seem this way. He wants to be sociable, partially because it is the Federation ideal.
Background and History: He was born on Earth, to a group of Andorians that were living there. His hometown was the small city of Statesville, North Carolina, where the four who birthed him had settled in to enjoy the natural beauty of the landscape. He was raised and educated in the traditional Andorian fashion, but there was no chance of himself or his siblings finding a mate on Earth, thus he wasn’t pressured to do so and thus he set his sights on Starfleet at an early age, partially due to the fact that he was fascinated by the nature around him and wanted to see more.
In addition to his Andorian education, he spent time with humans, and thus, grew accustomed to some of their customs and figures of speech – though he remained as cold and distant as ever. Regardless, he had friends among these humans – friends who sometimes dragged him to leisure events. They were the ones who started calling him Est, and it stuck. He understood; humans simply couldn’t be bothered to remember his full name, much less mouth it.
Upon finishing his schooling, he applied for Starfleet Academy. His application was accepted, and he passed his examinations, having prepared accordingly for it during his prior schooling. After passing his exams, he was sent to the Preparatory School in San Francisco, and after those classes were completed, he attended the Academy, quickly finding his specialty to be piloting, and switching his career track from Undecided to CONN.
Name of Celebrity: Avatar: (I could use some help with this one, Kath, if you would be willing. ^_^. I could use help with a celebrity as well. And I need to find a way to repay you for such favours. ^_^).
Sample Roleplay: ((I’ll use the post that I’m likely to put into the Mars thread once I’m approved)).
Sirikajiresth th’Zthel had never been to Mars before. He didn’t really see what was so fascinating about the Red Planet. He wasn’t too thrilled about the fact that he’d be leaving the comfortable chill – his race was quite fond of the cold – but it was required and if anything it would be a test of his endurance and coping abilities. That much satisfied the young Andorian. He had indeed attended the Halloween party, and had the clever – or maybe boring – idea not to wear a costume but appear as himself, in his cadet uniform. One thing about the Halloween party that he liked had been the food which he’d hovered around. Someone had tried to touch his antennae thinking they were fake before he pointed out they weren’t which got the person to back off in time.
Est had decided to leave them. It was probably a good idea, since he wasn’t enjoying it – he really didn’t pursue things like this, aside from the food – and had retired to the outside to study in the cold, enjoying the fact that he was getting something done.
It hadn’t exactly been a disaster, something he was grateful for. And now he was waiting in the shuttlebay for further word from their instructor. He was not sure whether they were to be assigned a shuttle, or they could choose them. He was fine with either, since he got along fine with people as long as they didn’t violate his upper sensitive areas.

Welcome to the boards.
I'll have a go at an avatar when I get a chance, sure. Let me know if you have any particular ideas in mind for him, like hair colour or shape of face or to look vaguely like someone, or whatever.
