 We found the Ring when we were exploring deep space. It was inhabited by sentient races and open to trade. It took us fifteen years to engineer the perfect team to go there. A team of six were chosen. Two scientists, a medical expert, a delegate for the human race, and two genetically altered soldiers to aid in whatever they needed to do. Their journey took two months to get there. Everything was going well. They were on their way to landing. And suddenly... we lost communication. Their last transmission was this... This is... Sergent Dean O'Connor... I am with the expedition team to Mag Mell. We reached the ring on schedule. Descent was on track when our systems crashed. We don't know how or why, but something interfered with them. We crashed. We don't know where we are, but we need to find medical help. We're going to head towards the strongest signal and find help. It's quiet so far, but something's wrong here. It's too quiet... send back up. Please, bring us home.The transmission was the last and only thing received from the arrival on the ring. It's been three months and we have finally gathered a team of six volunteers. They have undergone the same genetic enhancements that the previous two went through. You are one of those six that carries the survivor's fates in your skills. Your mission is simple. Get in. Find our missing men. And bring them home.

[b]Bio:[/b]
[b]Reason for joining:[/b] (For Titans only) Titan project
Titan's are people or soliders that have been chosen or volunteered to undergo genetic experimentation to enhance their physical aspects as well as their minds. Stamina, endurance, strength, immunity, have all been magnified on a scale of three times the normal human. To add, to the physical, the Titan's mind can process and comprehend five times faster than the average person. Idedic memory has been ingrained and the super soldier was engineered. Each Titan is paired with an A.I. unit ((Image coming soon)) SirenSirens are a race of advanced beings native to Mag Mell. Their society has been refined and created into something similar to that of the Greeks with a technology surpassing even humanity's. They appear as brightly colored beings with human like features while mixing amphibious and reptilian shapes. Their eyes are black and they sport an array of different fins and spines. These creatures are hermaphroditic. ((image coming soon)) WolfenCanine like creatures of brightly colored pelts and an array of different markings, this slightly human like race is a native to Mag Mell. They form more as a tribe, while retaining the same technology as Sirens. They speak in a series of guteral sounds, grunts, and clicks. ((image coming soon))

However, Syinon does find it amusing to play with them, adapting qualities of the other sex to tease them.

Also, he is betrothed to Urquag and defends her no matter the cost.

Gazing out at the ring, the blue reflected off the gold visor of Dean's helmet. The Titan followed it through the field of vision before dropping his gaze to the photo in his hands. A man smiled back, green eyes dancing happily as he held a young boy and girl close to him. All three were grinning, the sun shining and revealing freckles in the summer light. Running a gloved thumb over it, he folded it up and tucked it away safely once more.
"We'll be landing soon..." an accented voice stated, a woman packing up a bag and double checking her pack. Her brown curls fell in waves around her shoulders, loose from their ponytail from earlier. Slowly, she lifted blue eyes and Shasta smiled back at the Titan. "Ready to lead us safely through the jungle?" she teased.
Dean just studied her before nodding once and looking back out at the Ring.

Amy seemed to be the most relieved. "Great," she muttered, although she did not appear at all relaxed. "The sooner we get out of this thing the better." Any sort of vehicle had bothered her since she could remember.
The second Titan hummed softly, his eyes on the ring. It was beautiful and seemed like a great place to roam. He could only imagine all of the beautiful things there, the other things God had created. "Buckle up, everyone," he hummed. "This could get a bit bumpy."

Dean stepped away from the window and made his way to check on the other two members of their team. Making sure they were secured, he helped Shasta and Amy before looking to the second Titan. "Let's land and get out of here..." He stated.

"Yessir," Asher replied, an excited smirk on his face as he moved towards the cockpit. "Oh, this is going to be fun."

Dean watched him go before looking back towards the ring. It was beautiful... that was the last peaceful thought before things went wrong.

"Oi! O'Connor!" Asher called from the cockpit. "Get your a** in here!"
Amy looked up. That didn't sound right.

Biting back the urge to strangle the kid, Dean made his way in and frowned. "What?" he snapped softly, agitated enough already.
Shasta glanced to Amy, lifting a brow.

"Tell me it's not the gravity guage..." Amy whispered, eyes closed.
Once the other Titan was present, Asher lowered his voice. "Now, I know I did not pay much attention in class, but I really do not think this is supposed to be blinking, let alone red." It was clear he was already trying to correct the problem, but it just was not working.

"We're fine." Shasta assured the other woman.
Frowning, Dean stepped over and fiddled around a bit. "It shouldn't be... what's the manual sa-" the ship lurched and suddenly dropped out from under them.

"********!" Asher hissed, still trying to regain control. "She's not responding!"
Amy paled and held on for dear life. Once this happened, she knew that there was rarely any fixing it.

Dean stumbled, slamming into the control panel from the jolt. He snagged hold and started to manually override the system in an attempt to get back in.
Shasta let out a soft squeak and clung to her seat.
They made impact and everything went dark...
3 MONTHS LATER...
"So that's Mag Mell..." Chase stated, looking at the ring from behind his visor. His first field work as a Titan and it was a search and rescue on an uncharted world.
Morgana glanced over at him and clapped him on the back. "Amazing isn't it, kid?" she asked, a smirk held in her voice.
Behind them, the third Titan remained silent as he had the entire trip there. He just focused on taking stock of his ammunition as Chase and Morgana had already done.

"I speak twenty-seven different languages, and I don't think I can find a way to describe it, Clark muttered, staring out at the ring with its dead center.
"Looks like one hell of a terrible place for an engine," muttered Destiny, shaking her head.
Silence came from the cockpit as the last member of the team kept watch on his equipment. So far so good, which was better than the first expedition. He was nervous, and for extremely good reason.
