It's up to you, really. Even if you don't post too often other players may move your character along, at least enough so that they don't fall into obscurity. Besides, you can post short sequences like what Trance did and interact with other players to keep yourself tightly involved with the plot. That doesn't take 10 minutes to do.

Hello Purvis:
The general rule of thumb for a board RP is you should be willing to make a post a day.

Stuffman:
Ehh I better put it off for now. Once I get an apartment closer to my job I'll have more free time.

I work ten hours shifts and I spend four hours a day driving because it's 90 miles away :V

Anyway, my intention is to take Rika and Rikako as my support team. Unfortunately Alice took Yumemi so I cannot complete the PC-98 SCIENCE trifecta, so I'll see who's still available for my co-pilot when I get to that point.

History/Background:
Leader of the Terran Rapid Reaction Special Forces, the ARCs (Assault Recon Corps), and captain of the Zero ARCs. He was a Terran Noble and heir to one of the TMC's many directors. As such, becoming a high-ranking officer within the TMC's space force was only a matter of time. However, he surprisingly earned his place quite well, displaying exceptional skills and talents quite unusual for one his age. He gets rather bitter whenever ignorants attribute the high rank he had acquired at such a young age to his social status. It wasn't long before he was given the task to form the Terran's most advanced special forces unit, the Zero ARCs. He gathered all the best and brightest together to form the unit which would later be known throughout the Solar System as Terra's Wrath.

History with Rem (not yet confirmed with player)
During Rem's final battle as a Terran soldier versus a Lunarian battalion protecting the Lunarian Cratios Research Facility, Zou was the officer in command of the mission. In a split second decision to rush the base while deflecting a flanking batallion, he decided to leave behind his vanguard unit, Rem's squadron, to act as a decoy while he led his own squad of 7 into the research facility. Unfortunately, he sorely overestimated his vanguard's capabilities and was soon after reprimanded and punished for losing an entire squadron needlessly.

Coincidentally, this battle was also Forte's last mission as a member of his Ravager unit, before its untimely disbanding.

History with Margaret (not yet confirmed with player)
Margaret had served under him as one of the squadron commanders of the elite Zero ARCs...that was until her sudden disappearance following a mission deep in URJ space. He risked quite a bit by stubbornly remaining in URJ space while combing the region for signs of his missing pilot...but to no avail. He would be quite surprised to encounter her later on...

History with Sean (not yet confirmed with player)
He was the pilot who shot down the mercenary Sean Alistaire. He was quite surprised when Sean resurfaced only a year later, alive and well. He believes there is some sort of fate tied in here somehere.

History with Forte
He had encountered Forte twice before. Once during the battle of Foxhorn when Forte downed on of his own. In a fit of rage, he engaged Forte, making use of what was then a prototype weapon, the bunker buster. However, the battle ended with an entire Terran destroyer destroyed and his own unit downed, having lost its prized bunker buster. He is still bitter about it until this day.

The second time was when he lead his ARCs unit deep into Lunarian territory to attack the Lunarian Cratios Research Lab. He finally managed to acquire his chance at revenge. With his new prototype Solar Frame, he managed to resoundingly defeat Forte and his Ravagers Unit. The Ravagers were never heard of on the battlefield ever again.

Forte survived, but his team was soon after disbanded. That encounter was to be his last as a Ravager.

History with Jan (not yet confirmed with player)
His Zero ARCs has engaged Jan's Dakka Brigade on a number of occasions. He was quick to recognize Jan as a fellow brigade leader and rival through their many encounters.

History with Trent
They have fought before, on foot, after Trent managed to down his Frame with his usual anti-frame footsoldier tactics. This was back when Zou was still a soldier-in-training, taking part in a real life skirmish for the first time. Zou survived the crash and went on to find Trent and they duked it out until the rest of Zou's team arrived, prompting Trent to make his escape. He remembers Trent as the first person to ever punch him in the face, something that even his father had never done.

History with Suwako
Secret for now....
