KEELER FILE [ classified ]
Sep. 26th, 2023 09:09 pmAge: Twenty-five.
Taskname: Keeler.
Partner: Encke.
Rank: Lead Navigator.
Station: Sleipnir.
REDACTED:
From birth through adolescence, Keeler suffers from faulty genetic modifications to his person that has unexpectedly limited his experience with the outside world. Due to family wealth and high social standing, he has seen many specialists and experimented with hundreds of drugs to combat symptoms such as muscle weakness, anemia, tinnitus, and syncope. Under great physical or psychological stress, he often loses consciousness or may suffer from panic attacks that lead to indirect damage from falls. At a young age, he introduced himself to mindfulness and breathing exercises, focusing on reading his body's warning signs, but his mother was already wary of letting him out of her sight - and he would not see his father for many years. By this point, he is clearly a fragile, forgettable footnote in the memory of a man at the forefront of the political game.
When he does enlist, it's with a false medical history, flying through the written exam and leaving his life behind in that cold hospital room mere days after his eighteenth birthday. Under false pretenses, Keeler has risen through the ranks to lead Navigator - as yet, without discovery - aboard the Sleipnir, a battleship en route to war with a hostile alien race.

self-knowledge questionnaire
Authority
You are good at making decisions; you have a clear sense of what needs to be done and what others should be doing. Played out inside yourself, this tendency drives you to value willpower and self-control. You may be accused of bossiness. But acting on your desire to dissuade, restrain or guide is often appreciated by others – who might secretly like a clear direction, and some firmness.
Shyness
Part of you is gripped by the fear that you’ll launch into something and completely mess it up. The upside of this is wise caution: people are indeed often too rash, whereas you know, by instinct, that holding back can save you. Probably, you feel shame and self-disgust a bit too much. But when you do feel in your element, you act with a wisdom and sensitivity never found in people with thicker skins.
Sensitivity
You have delicate, sensitive perceptions; you can be deeply moved by appearances – the right light in a room, or good food, or the texture of a piece of clothing. Expressive, intelligent language has a powerful hold on you; your mind works better when it is inspired and provoked by vivid imagery. It can be sad to live in a world which is often so ugly and not properly looked after. But you know that things can be otherwise, and you have the ability to appreciate the world at its best.
