(The current Lund family minus the newly born daughter... Crap I'm probably gonna need to make a new one.) General Information: Full name: Wester Tycho Lund Junior. Age: 28 years old Birthday: November 13th, 3260 Race: Novakid Gender: Male Relationship Status: Married Residence: The Prodigal One ((his ship)) Education: Years of engineering focused education from the Ministry of Knowledge Employment: Head Engineer for the Atlas Empire and Chancellor of Iona Physical Appearance Height: 5' 8" Plasma Color: Yellow Distinguishing features: A brand in the shape of an E Body type: Small frame Backstory: Spoiler (Original Lund family photo) Early Life: Being the middle child in a batch of 3 always put Wester in a bit of an awkward situation growing up. His younger sister, Clementine, always got special treatment and attention. His older brother, Methan, rarely got along well with Wester, always seeming to be competing with Wester for the attention of their father. Other than name, Wester shared little in common with his father. He greatly preferred to try and tinker with machines to varying degrees of success much to the dismay of his father like when Wester in effort to figure out how a generator worked inadvertently caused a power surge in the saloon his father was drinking at. After a particularly harsh lecture and punishment Wester had decided he had enough of his family and fled home, stowing away on the first ship he saw: one that was crewed by some strange fur and flesh colored folk calling themself "Apex". Hidden away in the storage bay of the ship Wester found no shortage of strange technology to start pulling apart and figuring out. During the ship's journey Wester once again attracted attention when he accidently set off a laser rifle while opening it up. Instead of being chucked out the airlock the Captain of the ship took pity on the young nova and took him in as one of his own. Wester soon learned about the "joys" of living under this "Ministry of Knowledge". The only things keeping him from running again was: a near limitless collection of things to dismantle and learn about, a pretty in depth education provided to him for free, and that ship captain's son, Victor, who's shared interest in technology led to a forged brotherhood between the two. After years under Miniknog rule Wester grew complacent and happy until the unthinkable happened, a rebel cell raided the base Wester had come to call home. During the ensuing chaos Wester managed to escape with Victor by the skin of their teeth in a stolen ship. He plotted a course deeper into the fringe in effort to avoid the ensuing war that would surely be brought to the planet soon. Having "deserted" the Ministry, the duo was now on their own in a strange new galaxy. Really short version: Born in a typical novakid settlement, ran away from home, brought into the Ministry of Science, and fled to the Fringe after Miniknog base was raided. Notable Relationships: Family | Friends | Liked | Neutral | Disliked | Adversary Spoiler Virginia: (Wife) Since our first kiss at that bar in Calypso Station, I knew she was the one. She’s the light of my life. Now that we have a home to ourselves and the kids it feels like our life as a family has truly begun. Plutonium "Pluto" : (Son) My eldest son. He's an energic bundle of joy who has taken an interest in animals. I know he's young but perhaps I have a future zoologist on my hands! Hopefully Easton or Maia will take after me and my love for engineering though... Easton: (Son) You may not have been born in ideal circumstances but... I'll love and care for you regardless of it. You didn't asked for what happened. Maia: (Daughter) The most beautiful shade of purple I think I've ever seen. Maia is such a bundle of joy and I feel a new level of inspiration to help make Atlas and the fringe in general a better place to raise them. Clementine: (Younger sister) Clem almost acts as if I’ve never left. I still harbor guilt for running away from home but she’s helped me come to terms with it. As standards go for little sisters, Clementine is among the best there is. Victor: (Adopted brother) He may not be a Lund by plasma but that doesn’t change my view on him at all. Fearless and inventive, I know you'll end up doing great things when you're older, I couldn't be prouder to call you brother. Avaline: (Adopted daughter) Ava came to Atlas in a pretty bad state... Filled with viruses and that god awful Diana clone tech that's a brand-ache to navigate around. I did my best to fix help her and give her the support she was lacking. She's flourished here in her time with Atlas and has moved well beyond just being my assistant to do bigger and better things. I hope Maia looks to you as an inspiration when she grows up. Methan: (Brother) We may rarely see brand to brand but you're still my brother. Wyoming: (Best Friend) The first fella that bothered to have a conversation with me here in the Fringe. He’s become an accomplished fighter and gunsmith in the time I’ve known him. Always has my back and I’ll always have his. He’s practically family at this point. Lorch: (Free soul) You've helped me finally learn to accept myself for who I am. For that, I am ever grateful. Corchea: (Star-sister) She's quirky, breaks my personal space bubble almost every time I see her, sometimes makes me uncomfortable, but for whatever reason, I don't seem to care much. She's a really outstanding friend and has been one of the few people to bother consistently hanging out with me. She also doesn't judge me whatsoever about my position in Atlas. Markus: (The High Atlas) He has done a wonderful job keeping Atlas on track. There were times where I maybe viewed his actions as too harsh or uncaring but now I realize it was all for the best. Vittoria: (Friend and predecessor) I greatly value our friendship but you seem hell bent on going out in some sort of blaze of glory... There is value in living the quiet life, Vittoria. Clint: (Dependable leader) He's no doubt earned his place as Praetor and my respect but there are times I call his judgment into question. Regardless of that, I don't think I'd want to see anyone other than him with the job. Xexanoth: (Boss of the century) Xex has stuck her neck out for me plenty of times and has shown that she cares about my well being both physically and mentally. Dave: (An acquired taste) I may be one sided in considering you a friend but it would be deserved after the history you and I have had. I'd like to think I've done a lot of growing since then and I can recognize you now for the good person you are under all that.... Personality. Diana 26: (The best one) We had a sort of misunderstanding at first but I've come to realize you are one of the good ones. I look forward to seeing how you do here in Atlas. Diana 23: (Subverted expectations) You're one of the real outspoken haters of Atlas yet you seem to have no problem with me. It's strange but I reckon it's better to have another friend than enemy. Naru: (Renaize person) It's been awhile since I've heard from you. The war on that planet of y'alls is upsetting, I hope peace can be found. Yaretzi: (Misguided) Never had a bad experience around Yaretzi but Vittoria can't say the same... I won't sit here and blame you for it but if you were a better person things would've turned out better. Llyod: (Ex-High Atlas) It's not popular to like you... You've done much to help me in my time here in Atlas and I used to look up to you. I'm not sure how true the horrible things said about you are and I'm not sure I want to know. Vermillion: (My Viceroy) You've never made an attempt to even properly get to know me since appointing me as your Chancellor. I do the work of a viceroy without the pay or recognition that comes with it. You would be far better suited doing your work on Olympus while the person that cares about Iona and her people runs things with the title they deserve. Cerise: (A dilemma solved) I can finally accept that what happened wasn't my fault. You were a vile and abusive person. Now that you're finally out of my life, I can live free again. Diana ??: (The bad batch) The technology you make feels like a mockery of our trade. I'm one of the few who can decipher and fix your messes. References: Spoiler Spoiler
