NAME: Francesca (Frankie) 'Dimes' Flynn

FACTION: Imperial Legion
RANK: Private
SPECIES: Human
HOMEWORLD: Ord Radama
AGE: 19
GENDER: Female
FORCE SENSITIVE: N/A

APPEARANCE:
Long black frizzled hair, almost always tied in a bushy ponytail with a few strands hanging out up front. Frankie has huge brown eyes that you could get lost in. Her smile is always made up in a smirk, like she knows she's better at piloting than you. She stands at 5'6" She has a slim physique, but also toned. Though she isn't the strongest or fastest when physical strength is involved, she can out maneuver you in a starfighter.

RECENT ACTIVITY:
~ Recently she has been involved in several missions beyond her Cadet group. She has been tangled in the webs of the Empire and the Sith, exposed to several circumstances that have made her change her stance on certain aspects of life. After her near death experience on Boz Pity with Soren, she has started training her skills with a Blaster Pistol. Before she was hardy a rookie, at the first stage of Complete Beginner, with constant practice and dedication to the shooting range her skills have moved onto Advanced Beginner.
~ Her skills with an Interceptor have advanced as well. Once her maneuverability was key to her piloting success, now she commands the skies with the deadly duo of maneuverability and speed as her closest allies. She has also moved on from Zeta Squadron to Victor Squadron. Her original call sign of Zeta 1 has since been switched to Victor 6.

ATTRIBUTES:
Frankie is an exceptional pilot. Perhaps not a natural born, but with so many hours of practice and dedication, she quickly advanced through the stages. Becoming a well rounded pilot though her true skills lie within the Starfighter. Her nickname is Dimes because she is known to be able to make any starfighter turn on a dime. However, she has never been in a dogfight before. Plenty of simulations that are very close to the real thing, no fear of death has ever touched her. It is very doubtful that she would ever crack under pressure, but she has no real experience yet. she holds the top tier cadet pilot score in her class. She's not the ultimate pilot by any standards but she's willing to fight for the cause. Which makes her a loyal soldier.
Her mother also has several influences over her, she is a well rounded medic too. Dedicated as the teams medic in flight, if her squadron was to ever crash land she would be able to help all of their injuries thanks to her mothers teachings and experiences about field medicine.
Her blaster work leaves something to be desired. She is capable of using a blaster pistol, but anything larger than that and she can't fire it. She's also not the best at aiming. Perhaps using the blaster to scare away enemies is more in her capabilities. But put her behind a starfighters controls and she can shoot the ears off a womp rat.

PERSONALITY:
Frankie grew up on an Imperial controlled world. She went to Military camp and classes everyday. Her father was reported to die as a Hero Pilot at the Incursion of Tantajoc V. Her Mother was a Med-bay Doctor who served on the front lines in her younger years, and then was promoted to fully fledged Doctor to support incoming troops and returning troops. The Imperial life-style is ingrained into her mind, and she would die before she let anything happen to her precious Empire. Her ultimate hero is her father, she joined the Imperial Navy because of him and was immediately on the fast track to becoming on the the Empires best pilots. She flies because of him, mostly out of the anger from his death, but after so many years of training and flying, a bit of joy has seeped into her. But mostly she flies out of anger.



BIOGRAPHY:
~BLACK BOX RECORDING~
Day 1: "This is Lt. Corbin Flynn reporting in. I crash landed on the jungle world of Tantajoc V. Classified Uninhabited by all known reports. Distress beacon launched upon crash landing. One flare sent up, four left over for when the rescue comes. Setting up a base camp tonight. Plenty of rations to last me two weeks. Flynn out.
Day 5: "Rescue still hasn't arrived. Checked the beacon, still active. Debris from the battle still rains down even after five days. They probably just have their hands full at the moment. Base camp is setup, fire going. Three flares remain. Shot one on day three when I saw a patrol fly near by. They didn't spot me. Flynn Out.
Day 19: "Lt. Corbin Flynn. Found two survivors. Both report that they went down with the Attack cruiser, apparently one of the last to go down. Said the Republic Fleet decimated them. One of them is a comms officer, started repairs on the communications antenna from the starfighter with some scraps from their escape pod. Maybe more survivors are out there? Flynn Out."
Day 33: "We've been stranded for about a month now. The comms officer was able to get the radio up and running, and we've had a constant distress beacon going out ever since, no interference, yet no response either. The other guy I saved from the escape pod crash died, infection. But we found three others. All beat up pretty badly. One of them was a Republic pilot who was unconscious but still alive. The Comms officer dressed him up as a Imperial Pilot. I haven't said anything... yet. Flynn Out."
Day 79: "Lt. Corbin Flynn, serial number 0007432, The other Imperial pilots we saved found out that the third was a Republic Pilot and killed him by smashing his head with a rock. They turned on us when they found out we had dressed him as one of us to save him. They killed Orson, the comms officer. I still had my pistol so I shot and killed both of them. I buried all of their bodies at the edge of a ravine. Beautiful sight. Orson deserved that much at least. Communications still outgoing. Vines have started to grown over my starfighter. Flynn Out."
Day 135: "No word from off world yet. The smoke and ash from the crashed ships has finally stopped littering the atmosphere. It really is a beautiful world when you get past the intense green. Flynn Out."
Day 375: "My pilot uniform has been faded and ripped apart so severally you can't tell I was wearing a uniform at all. The reflection of me from the glass on the starfighter isn't what I remember. Long hair, a beard. Sunken eyes, hollow cheeks. I just miss my family. My wife, my daughter. After a year on this planet alone, I no longer wish to go back to my old pilot life. I just want to see and hug my family. I just want to see someone else... Comms are still up. Flynn Out."
Day 1631: "Four years by my count. They're never coming back for me. My daughter would be 8 by now.... I tried repairing my ship... but the twin ion engines were too old and corroded. Blew up in my face. Lucky I'm alive at all. My base camp went up in smoke, attracted all kinds of animals too. I saw what used to be a few of the pilots I knew from back then. They were feral. Like something from the world had infected them. Loneliness perhaps? Maybe hunger... They came to my campsite, looked through the debris. But it seemed like they didn't recognize any of it. Did they snap? The Empire, the Sith. I was brainwashed. And after 4 years of being stranded... alone... I see it now. If you find this.... god, I don't know. Try to find my family I suppose. Hopefully they've moved on, found somewhere happy to live. Maybe my wife has seen the Empire for what it truly is. You can only hope... Flynn Out."
~END OF BLACK BOX RECORDING~

Francesca grew up fatherless on Ord Radama. She had only met him a few times between her birth and her fourth birthday. He always called her Frankie, and the nickname kind of stuck. To her, and her faint memories of him, he was a superhero. Always and forever cast in that light, never fearful, always the hero. Stories from people who knew him best were told to her as she grew up. His best friend Hutch would frequent their house and tell her war stories of her dad in action. Her mother would often recount the times they were together. Always in a romantic light, always painting him to be the perfect gentleman. Her mom never remarried after her father, of course showing how dedicated to him she was.

Frankie wasn't obsessed with finding someone like that for herself, instead she wanted to be that someone, that hero, to someone else. When she was twelve, a full eight years after her fathers death was reported at the Incursion of Tantatjoc V, she began military school. Her mother pushed her towards medicine, but she wanted revenge on the Republic for her fathers death, so she joined the Navy, hoping to get to pilot the same type of starfighter her father did.

Her first couple of years were rough. She wasn't a natural born pilot, she barely made the cuts. But one night she had a dream about flying beside her father, finally getting close to him to see what he was really like, and the only way to do that was to become the best pilot and show everyone else, including the Republic that she could take care of herself and anyone who stood with her. After that moment she did nothing but fly, simulations, junker ships, pod racers, speeders. At the age of seventeen she had finally moved up to second of her class, after a breif bout with the highest score holder, she moved up to top tier in Cadet Piloting. And she's held that title for three years. She is the squadron leader and squad medic, her squad mates call her Dimes as she is known to be able to maneuver any starfighter model on a dime. Each flight she does, she feels like she gains one step closer to her fathers glory.
