Hello, fellow Transports! I know we're in a bit of a pinch right now what with this super-virus mutating and infecting some of the population, but if you have a minute I've got some questions I'd appreciate some answers to. Some of them may help either now, if we're going to be trying to treat this virus at all, or in the future should anything like this happen again.

What's your name?
Age?
Place of origin? Planet, country, and city of origin would be the most helpful.
Species? If you're anything other than a baseline human, does your biology differ in any notable ways?
What occupation did you have in your world of origin? "Student" and "unemployed" are perfectly valid answers.
Do you have any prior experience with war?
Time travel?
Alternate universes?
Technology at the level the Initiative is operating with?
Do you have any background in medicine?
What about the STEM fields? For anyone who doesn't know, that would be Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.
What kind of weapon did you choose upon entrance to Exsilium? If it has a special function, feel free to include that at your discretion.
Have you made use of the Initiative's training areas outside of mandatory training hours?
If you answered no to the above, why not?
What is your opinion on the Initiative and their missions?


Feel free to skip any questions you feel are too intrusive, or encrypt things if you would like to answer but would rather not answer to the whole network. Similarly, if you would like to answer but don't trust the Initiative's technology, I can currently be found in the library (the one not in the Hold) and would love to either talk face to face or take answers written elsewhere. Look for the blonde in the Metropolis University sweatshirt. Any and all private communication will be kept completely confidential and is only to satisfy my own curiosity. Thank you in advance for any answers!

And, out of the interest of fairness, I'll give you my own answers to this little survey.


What's your name? Kara Zor-El.
Age? Functionally somewhere around 19/20.
Place of origin? Earth, United States of America, Metropolis. Originally from the planet Krypton.
Species? Kryptonian. We look fairly human on the outside, but our internal organs are vastly different from those of the Homo sapiens sapiens. Radiation from a yellow sun also affects our bodies in ways baseline humans don't experience.
What occupation did you have in your world of origin? Full-time superhero. I've also sold some technology to a business with a large R&D department.
Do you have any prior experience with war? Yes.
Time travel? Yes.
Alternate universes? Sadly, yes.
Technology at the level the Initiative is operating with? Possibly, yes. I haven't had time to analyze all of it.
Do you have any background in medicine? Nothing more than basic first aid, but I'm interested in learning more.
What about the STEM fields? Yes. I was part of the Science Guild back on New Krypton. These days I mostly focus on mechanical and electronic engineering, with astro- and temporal physics being a hobby.
What kind of weapon did you choose upon entrance to Exsilium? A small sphere the functions of which are unknown.
Have you made use of the Initiative's training areas outside of mandatory training hours? I have plans to.
If you answered no to the above, why not? N/A
What is your opinion on the Initiative and their missions? I haven't been here long enough to form a complete opinion, but so far I think they're in over their heads a bit. Messing with time is always difficult and usually inadvisable.

What's your name? James Buchanan Barnes
Age? 87.
Place of origin? Shelbyville, IN.
Species? Human, nothing funny.
What occupation did you have in your world of origin? Soldier.
Do you have any prior experience with war? Yes.
Time travel? Yes.
Alternate universes? Yes.
Technology at the level the Initiative is operating with? I guess. [ Don't ask him to explain it though. ]
Do you have any background in medicine? Nope.
What about the STEM fields? We have Tony Stark for that.
What kind of weapon did you choose upon entrance to Exsilium? [ leaving this blank ]
Have you made use of the Initiative's training areas outside of mandatory training hours? Yes.
If you answered no to the above, why not?
What is your opinion on the Initiative and their missions? I think they're better than what they're fighting. More than you get in most wars.

Species? homo sapiens sapiens
What occupation did you have in your world of origin? student, and my parents and I ran a farm, breeding sheep and shearing. After that, you can pen me in as a freedom fighter or terrorist, depending who you ask. “Soldier” is a bit too formal, I reckon.

Do you have any background in medicine? No.
What about the STEM fields? High school maths and science, plus improvised explosives.

What's your name? Charles Foster Ofdensen
Age? 43
Place of origin? Boston, Massachusetts, United States, Earth.
Species? Human. I have to admit, the term "baseline" is interesting.
What occupation did you have in your world of origin? Band manager and chief financial officer.
Do you have any prior experience with war? Yes.
Time travel? No.
Alternate universes? No.
Technology at the level the Initiative is operating with? Some. Mostly higher-grade weaponry and engineering. [some of those mobile stages were pretty high tech and amazing okay]
Do you have any background in medicine? No.
What about the STEM fields? I'm an accountant for the largest source of economy in my homeworld, I'd say math is covered. As for science and engineering, we had an R&D field for that. I'm fair enough with a computer though.
What kind of weapon did you choose upon entrance to Exsilium? A rapier. But I can defend myself in other ways.
Have you made use of the Initiative's training areas outside of mandatory training hours? Not yet.
If you answered no to the above, why not? Just got here.
What is your opinion on the Initiative and their missions? I haven't been here long enough to form an educated opinion, but I'll follow the current until I find evidence not to.

What's your name? Arthur Nielsen.
Age? Old in body and young in mind.
Place of origin? Philadelphia, PA, USA, Earth. But immediately before I got here? Univille, South Dakota.
Species? Decidedly human.
What occupation did you have in your world of origin? I'm a curator and a professional collector. If this is in the interest of coordinating Transports and is going to be totally confidential, I could say a little more.
Do you have any prior experience with war? Yes. I was a codebreaker during the Cold War.
Time travel? No. [not yet, hurr. ask again after the canonbumps]
Alternate universes? Not universes, just dimensions. And only briefly.
Technology at the level the Initiative is operating with? For the most part, no.
Do you have any background in medicine? No.
What about the STEM fields? Math and Technology are stronger suits for me than the other two. I'm more of a ... patterns and probabilities kind of guy. I've gotten good at seeing the things that don't fit and figuring out why.
What kind of weapon did you choose upon entrance to Exsilium? An electro-magnetic charge weapon called a Tesla. It's meant to be non-lethal, but has higher settings.
Have you made use of the Initiative's training areas outside of mandatory training hours? No.
If you answered no to the above, why not? I mostly leave that to the younger agents. I'd rather do my fighting with my mind.
What is your opinion on the Initiative and their missions? At this point, I'm convinced they're the lesser of two evils. I don't want to see any other worlds destroyed, and honestly, the way things are right now, I don't have any other choice as to where to be and who to ally with. At least they're trying to save something - the only evidence I have personally against the UE is that they're completely destructive. It's definitely a tightrope walk, though.

What's your name? Seven of Nine
Age? 28
Place of origin? I have spent most of my life on starships. Most recently, the Federation starship Voyager.
Species? Human, but my physiology has been enhanced with Borg technology. Most relevant, at this moment, I am immune to most diseases.
What occupation did you have in your world of origin? My posting was in Voyager's Astrometrics laboratory. However, I also assisted in Engineering and on the bridge.
Do you have any prior experience with war? Yes. [she does not want to go into it.]
Time travel? Yes.
Alternate universes? No.
Technology at the level the Initiative is operating with? Greater. For a timeline apparently more advanced than my own, the level of technology here is greatly lacking.
Do you have any background in medicine? Not extensively. I am capable of administering emergency treatment, no more.
What about the STEM fields? I am experienced in most scientific fields. However, I specialize in astrophysics and engineering.
What kind of weapon did you choose upon entrance to Exsilium? [She's going to take you up on your offer to leave this one blank.]
Have you made use of the Initiative's training areas outside of mandatory training hours? No.
If you answered no to the above, why not? I have just arrived. [She has other things on her mind.]
What is your opinion on the Initiative and their missions? I do not have enough information yet to form an opinion.

[personal profile] copia 2013-06-10 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
What's your name? Kaede Kaburagi
Age? 11
Place of origin? Earth, [ insert name of futuristic America & New York ], Oriental Town
Species? Yes. I am a NEXT — a human with an unknown mutation that gives me extraordinary abilities. There are a few of us back home.
What occupation did you have in your world of origin? Student
Do you have any prior experience with war? No
Time travel? No
Alternate universes? No
Technology at the level the Initiative is operating with? As far as communications like the tablet, yes. The other things, no.
Do you have any background in medicine? No
What about the STEM fields? No
What kind of weapon did you choose upon entrance to Exsilium? The ability to manipulate ice.
Have you made use of the Initiative's training areas outside of mandatory training hours? Yes
What is your opinion on the Initiative and their missions?
I get that they want to help those not in the United Earth's grasp. I get that they want to help those they've pulled here to keep their worlds from being completely controlled by the United Earth. What I don't get is why their systems to pull people here have not been modified to keep teens as young as me outside of those requirements, instead of grabbing everyone they think might be useful. Just because I have kept up on training my abilities outside of the mandatory hours does not mean I may ever be suited to go out there and fight like they want or expect me to.

[Well hell, why not? Although Kara's not likely to be entirely helpful.]

What's your name? Other pilots call me Starbuck. You can call me God.
Age? Old enough to drink.
Place of origin? We talking before or after the holocaust? Before? I was from Caprica, lived in Delphi. Home sweet home's been the Galactica though, since the Cylons nuked the place.
Species? What kind of question is this? Human.
What occupation did you have in your world of origin? Pilot and flight instructor.
Do you have any prior experience with war? I've been in one for over two years now.
Time travel? Are you serious?
Alternate universes? Alternate what now?
Technology at the level the Initiative is operating with? Yeah I recognize their level of technology and it smells of Cylon to me.
Do you have any background in medicine? Not really, no.
What about the STEM fields? I'm a pilot. I may not be a genius but I know enough.
What kind of weapon did you choose upon entrance to Exsilium? A pain in the ass one. And if you know how to destroy the damned thing, I'd be interested in hearing it.
Have you made use of the Initiative's training areas outside of mandatory training hours? Maybe.
If you answered no to the above, why not?
What is your opinion on the Initiative and their missions? I think they're a bunch of fraking idiots and I'm pretty sure they're Cylons or Cylon agents. Wouldn't trust them anymore than I would any other toaster.

I think that's what they call a home run.

What's your name? Flora
Age? 19-20
Place of origin? Linphea, the Magical Dimension.
Species? Fairy. Um. I have wings and magic?
What occupation did you have in your world of origin? It's a bit of a complicated answer, since I call a few different worlds home, Earth included. Anyway: Teacher, Fairy Pet Shop Veterinarian and Nutritionist, Guardian Fairy, and Guitarist, I suppose?
Do you have any prior experience with war? I have more experience fighting in battles than a full-scale war.
Time travel? Not before here.
Alternate universes? Not like this, no.
Technology at the level the Initiative is operating with? Yes.
Do you have any background in medicine? Veterinary only.
What about the STEM fields? What a cute name for them all. I like it. Botany, some math, and other magical disciplines, if that matters at all.
What kind of weapon did you choose upon entrance to Exsilium? A scythe.
Have you made use of the Initiative's training areas outside of mandatory training hours? Yes.
If you answered no to the above, why not? N/A
What is your opinion on the Initiative and their missions? I think that they could probably stand to improve in some areas, like narrowing their parameters for who gets here, as well transparency, and maybe better organization. I don't know a lot about huge wars, but I'm used to fighting in a team where, among other things, everyone at least knows one another's strengths and weaknesses. On that last mission, everyone I fought with turned out to be capable, but I'd met all of them for the first time. We made do, but it was far from ideal. Still, the Initiative doesn't make us fight if we don't want to, and they've tried to come up with a way for people to go home. As for what they're fighting for, I believe in it. I think their hearts are in the right place, they just need a little pruning, maybe.

I'm sorry, I think I got a little carried away, there.
