[QUOTE]Originally posted by OnToMars: [QB] [i]Thanks for your suggestions, Bernd. This is what I wrote up last night, and I think he would fit in very well as being one of the few characters that don't have some sort of neuroses. In short, he could represent stability, demonstrating a more realistic profile of what kind of Mars astronauts would actually be sent. There is, I think, potential to play off this character with Benjamin Stewart and to a lesser extent, Peter Young, both who have made Mars their single unwavering focus in life. And if ya don't mind, Bernd, I'd like to use your name. Slim chance that this will ever make it to the screen in the first place, but would ya mind anyway?[/i] Bernd Schneider Physiology � Sex: Male � Age: 38 � Height: 5�10� � Weight: 165 � Hair: Black � Eyes: Blue � Skin: Light. � Posture: Straight, regular. � Appearance: Neat, but occasionally slightly disheveled. � Heredity: German, countryside. Sociology � Class: German working origin. Middle from accomplishment. � Occupation: Systems engineer. � Education: Undergrad in Mechanical Engineering, Master�s in Engineering Physics. � Home Life: Wife and a pre-adolescent son. � Religion: Atheist � Race, nationality: Caucasian, German. � Place in Community: Systems Engineer � Political Affiliations: None. � Amusements, hobbies: Logic puzzles, engineering. Somewhat Scotty-like. Simply enjoys engineering, both as a career and an amusement. Has an interest and is fairly knowledgeable in physics. Psychology � Sex life, moral standards: Faithful to his wife, a bit of a prude. � Personal premise, ambition: None really. To be in space, but never considered it a great enough possibility to become overly ambitious about. To apply his skills to be a good engineer. He has a somewhat vague premise of furthering humanity, but he mainly does what he does because he enjoys it. � Frustrations, personal disappointments: None of note. He is thankful that he has come as far as he did. � Temperament: Cool, logical, rational. Not easily perturbed. Somewhat frightened about the possibility of a Mars death (i.e. from decompression or whatnot). � Attitude toward life: To work hard and apply his skills where they are needed. � Complexes, obsessions, inhibitions, superstitions, phobias: None of note. He is a very stable personality.

Has a photographic memory. Often catches things others miss. � IQ: 150 � History: Comes from a small village in the German countryside. Never thought he would have the opportunity to go to another world. After receiving his education, he worked on a government research project from which he was nominated for a spot on Ares VIII. He is considered a hero among his village, something, which embarrasses him somewhat. He has a healthy respect for authority, though not the over characterization stereotype Germans are sometimes portrayed with. � Mars: Went to Mars because the possibility was offered to him and because of the unique engineering involved. [i]Also, in case anybody's interested, are the full bios for two more of the main characters:[/i] Peter Young Physiology � Sex: Male � Age: 32 � Height: 6�1� � Weight: 165 lbs. � Hair: Dark brown � Eyes: Hazel � Skin: Tanned Caucasian � Posture: Military � Appearance: Faintly cowboyish. � Heredity: Anglo-Saxon Texan Sociology � Class: Middle � Occupation: Naval aviator, test pilot, and pilot astronaut � Education: B.S. in Aerospace Engineering from Purdue University and a M.S. in Engineering Physics from CalTech.

Psychology � Sex life, moral standards: Moderately promiscuous, no qualms about multiple sexual partners, though by no means fixated on sex. � Personal premise, ambition: To be a Chuck Yeager/Pete Conrad/Right Stuff type of person.
