Aiden Kelly

Ranger Aiden Kelly

Aiden seems grumpy, but he's not really the type to snap at someone unless it's warranted. After all, he hasn't gotten this far in life by not minding his own business. Aiden loves himself above everyone else, and he makes it pretty well-known, not just in his words, but his actions. He's independent to a fault. Part of the reason why is because doing physical labor in the Interstellar Forces is a piece of cake compared to surviving alone without shelter. It's why the IF chose him in the first place. Another one of Aiden's defining characteristics is his brutal honesty, but he's not the type that can't take what he dishes out. His honesty also extends to compliments as well.

Physical Description

Body Features

Age: 26 years old (June, Year 108)   Birthday: April 5th (Maybe)   Quite tall, with muscle he gained from doing a lot of physical labor. VERY broad shoulders. No one really knows how he gets his hair to stay in that shape, but he manages. His face is sharp, with a prominent scar on his right cheek. A small beard confines to the shape of his chin.

Other Relationships

  Leon - "Pfff, what a dork!" Aiden is amused by Leon, even though he finds his constant chipper-ness slightly disturbing/annoying. The thing that really gets on Aiden's nerves is how dense Leon can be. He worries it might come at the expense of others, and to prevent this, Aiden tries to keep Leon in line...at least when he's in the mood to. Toying with Leon for the heck of it is also fun. They have a little roommate rivalry, and Leon at least seems to have a good sense of humor about it. Aiden usually refers to him as Rookie.   Mia - "Eh, I don't got a problem with her." Aiden and Mia don't really interact much; it's quite awkward when they do. They don't have much to do with each other, but they respect each other's space. Aiden does notice that she's slightly annoyed with Leon, but not willing to tell him.   Roxie - "Jun's weirdo friend. She's cool, I guess." Aiden doesn't really know what to make of Roxie and her odd shenanigans. He just kinda lets her do her thing while being weirded out by it. She's nice enough though, not too obnoxious in Aiden's opinion, and she's also a friend of Jun's, so Aiden kinda sees her as an acquaintance, at the very least. To be honest, he's a little worried about how naive she is.   Jun - "Jun's my bro!" Jun is probably Aiden's best friend. They met a year after Aiden joined the IF, and the higher-ups were having a hard time controlling him, so they made Jun Kim room with him to act as a make-shift parole officer. They didn't get along at first, and they still don't see eye-to-eye on certain things, but they became good friends. Jun is probably one of the few people Aiden genuinely trusts. He didn't really have any problem when he found out about Jun, as he thought it was kinda odd that they only let men into the IF anyway.   Angelo - "The only person who can make Rookie look remotely tough." Aiden finds it amazing how someone so incredibly fragile made it into the IF. Aiden didn't need a partner, much less one that'll jump out of his own skin at any given moment, but he figures he could've gotten someone annoying instead, so Angelo isn't so bad. He appreciates that Angelo, unlike his brother, is quiet for the most part, but on the downside, he's so hard to hear over the microphone, and it's hard to get him to speak up without making him panic in the process.   Emil - "My #1 fan. Probably runs this ship more than his brother." Aiden welcomes anyone who will boost his ego. Emil's a funny kid, acting all cool with the rest of the crew members, but turning into a complete dork around Aiden (and Jun.) Aiden decided to take him under his wing; he's sure his up-tight brother probably doesn't approve, but he doesn't care. He also notices Emil does way more work around the ship than the captain does...   Lorenzo - "What the heck does he do in his room all day? Doesn't he have a ship to run or something?" Aiden really doesn't approve of the way Lorenzo and Emil got their positions on the ship. It reeks of corrupt higher ups pulling the strings for their kids. Emil doesn't seem to be corrupt, but Lorenzo's much more mysterious, and what little the rest of the crew knows about him comes from Emil. Because of this, Aiden has a hard time trusting the captain. He can also sense that Lorenzo is wary of him, too, probably because he heard about Aiden's reputation.

Social Aptitude

Highly depends on his mood. When he feels like socializing, he does a really good job of it, usually ending up the life of the party. When he doesn't, don't interact. If someone tries to, he will immediately shut them down and continue to ignore them for however long it takes to get the message.   Doesn't really have many close friends.

Hobbies & Pets

Lifting weights, Exploring, Playing various sports with minimal rules (something like Frisbee or Catch)

Speech

Casual, even in situations where he shouldn't be (talking to authority). If he ever decides to use professional language, it's always in a sarcastic way.

Thanks for the tip! He might have a stash of it under his bed.

Perhaps he is a Dapper Dan man?

Perhaps, but I can't really say there's anything 'dapper' about Aiden.
