Basically, this story is about a young knight, Eeieeiei, (also me :P) who is working as a scientist on the Skylark until the crash, where he and his new squad rises through the ranks and eventually even reaches the Core. The squad, by the way, is the first FOUR character applications. Write what you look like in your best armor. Enjoy!
P.S The Knights start off in their best armor, not the Proto Gear.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Chapter One
~:~ The Crash ~:~
Defender Elite Eeieeiei heard a loud crash. He came running into the bridge of the Skylark where he saw Captain Ozlo and Feron. "Eeieeei! Im glad you're here." Feron said excitedly.
"Yes, I suppose the crash came from the Engine Room, right" Eeieeiei said, half asking, half declaring.
"Mmhmm" Feron replied, pacing across the bridge. He went over to the intercom and announced loudly "Attention all Knights! Report to Escape Pod Bay 2-A73 immediately!" The alarm blared. Eeieeiei ran with his best friend, Maegalink, who was a 2 star Knight with Cobalt Armor and a Fused Demo helm, to the escape pod bay. The two hopped into spare pods, and launched. As they plummeted down to the unknown, one thought ran through Eeieeiei's mind replaying itself over and over. "Will I see them again?"
And then, everything went black.
As he slowly awoke, he burst the pod open. "Where am I?" he asked himself. "Im asking an awful lot to myself... well, time to get started."
Yet starting would not be as easy as he expected.

Go to Forum preferences, then click Edit, and choose a picture.

Eeieeiei

Thanks, and here's the app!

Thanks Feronel! I will do just that. Here is a application, like you asked!

Name: Eeieeiei
Squad: Eta-9
Squad Position: Eta-9 leader
Appearance: Full Mghty Cobalt Set, with a Tempered Calibur and Mighty Defender. He has an Antigua tucked into his belt.
Alliegance: Spiral Order
Species: Knight
Personality: A good, strong leader who is always taking point. He would do anything to keep his squad alive, and values them over himself.
Feels most at home in the Clockworks when: He is surrounded by constructs. He feels bad destroying them, as he feels they are works of art, but he does what he must. Eeieeiei often collects pieces from them to add to his "friend" the Mecha Knight he calls "Bob" despite the fact it is tad cliche.

Enjoy the story! Im posting chapter two right after this post, so I hope you enjoy! I look forward to seeing you in the story!

Eeieeiei

This one might be a bit boring, but it's vital!

Chapter Two
The Rescue Camp

Eeieeiei was hiking through the vast and ever-changing landscape when he saw an odd pink blob. Calling Intel Agent Kora to see what it was, he raised his wrist comm to his mouth.
"This is Eeieeiei. Kora, do you copy?"
"Yes, I copy, whats the matter?"
"I need intel on a pink square blob. Here's a picture of it." Eeieeiei said clicking a button on his Mighty Cobalt helmet.
Kora responded almost immediately.
"Eeieeiei, that's a Jelly Cube! Take it out NOW!"
Without thinking, he slashed it in half with his Tempered Calibur. He walked on until he found a gate, and he unlocked it.
"Perhaps the squad's back there..." Eeieeiei decided, unlocking it. He did not find his squad, but rather a collection of escape pods.
"Is this 'home?'" he wondered.
"No," a gruff voice responded. "This not, but Haven is. You will be briefed at O' three hundred tommorow afternoon. Until then, you will stay here." "Good luck" the voice finished.
However it was not luck Eeieeiei needed, it was directions. What is Haven!? Where is it? He would just have to wait and see.

Character Apps AWAY!

Name: Bull

Gender: Male

Armour and Helm: Nameless Set

Shield(optional): (leave blank for none)

Costume(s): Shadowstun set

Personality: A bit of a scaredy cat, but never afraid to kill when his friends are in danger.

History/Bio: Always been timid from his early days, when he was accepted in to the Order he chose the gunslinger profession so he wouldn't have to get close to harm, this has backfired on him on his earlier squad when he could have saved the lives of his squad mates. They were all wandering the GWW and the Snarbolax attacked them all out of no where, the other's died, but Bull, being a slight coward, lived, and he regrets what he as done to this day.

Twist Degree: Learns to be less timid and more confident.

Expendability: I would like him not do die, but if you have to, meh, I'd be ok with that.

Accessories: Exorcier Crest on the Shadowstun Slicker and Fancy Mehca Wings on the Shadowstun Hat

Class: Gunslinger

Weapons: Argent Peacemaker and Sentenza, Cahallan and Iron Slug, Hail Driver and Umbra Driver. (Uses these in pairs like Cahallan and Iron Slug, one gun in each hand)

Additional Facts: Can shoot a perfect bullseye from 5 miles away

Role: A knight that helps Eeieeiei out when he gets to haven, but intrduce him later so the Snarby thing makes sense. (IF he gets in the story)

Faction: Good!

Name: Aiden

Gender: Male

Armour and Helm: Vog Cub Coat and Grey Feather Cowl

Shield(optional): Crest of Almire

Personality: Overly confident at times he thinks he is better than anybody else, a Vanaguard on the Skylark.

History/Bio: Worked his way up in the Order and is now a respected Vanaguard, he is sometimes overly confident and arrogant because he is one of the few Vanaguards on the Skylark. When the great ship crashed however, he was the first to make it to Haven and became a high officer in the order.

Expendability: I would like him not do die, but if you have to, meh, I'd be ok with that.

Accessories: Volcanic Halo

Class: Swordsman

Weapons: Triglav, Warmaster Rocket Hammer, Voltedge, and Barbourus Thorn Blade

Role: An elite officer of the Order

Faronel

DARK! GET OFF MY LAPTOP!

Well, here you are.

Oh, and here's a suggestion: try making it longer, even if it means making us wait. Microsoft word works well. Or, search up "Writeboard". :)

Name: Faronel
Squad: Eta-9
Squad Position: Guardian
Appearance/Gear: Heavy Plate Mail, Heavy Plate Shield, Stranger Hat (Actually has a Miracle Hood), a Faust, a Avenger, an Electron Bomb, and a Super Blast Bomb.
Alligence: Spiral Order
Speices: Spirallian/Knight
Personality: A kind, warm-hearted, and most of all, cheerful knight. He is very optimistic, and tries to look at the bright side of things (Except most monsters). He is willing to protect others, even if it would cost him his life. He has a tendency to jump in front of a teamate with his shield up to block a hit.

Alrighty, guys! New

Alrighty, guys! New chapter!
Chapter Three
Crossing the Chasm/Haven

Eeieeiei walked across a large bridge. At the Rescue Camp, he had met up with his squad's Guardian, Feronel. The two peered over the large and endless chasm that overlooked the Clockworks. "Amazing, isn't it?" Feronel said.
"Very amazing. Only in training did I see such a wonder. That wonder was... well, Bob the Mecha Knight. I still have him today. Long story, lets go." Eeieeiei said, walking towards a city's walls. "This is Haven?" He asked Faronel.
"Yep!" He replied, excitedly. "It might be a little small, but it looks nice!"
"Indeed." Eeieeiei responded. As they entered, the Strangers greeted them.
"Who are they?" Faronel asked, looking at the cloaked beings curiously.
"Locals. The little birds seem to like them, anyway." The friends advanced towards Feron, who waited in the Haven Arcade. (They had learned the name of the city from a plaque on the front wall.)
"Well met," Feron began. "I take that you enjoyed your trip." He said, in a half serious half joking manner.
"Oh, certainly." Eeieeiei joked.
"Good." Feron responded. "We need you on the case now. Seeing as how you are unfamiliar with the surrounds, yet you have good gear, I think you might want to start in Tier 2. We will meet up at Moorcraft Manor."
"Yessir!" Eeieeiei and Feronal shouted in unison, saluting.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Later...
Depth 17

The duo saw a lone Knight dueling a Darkfang Mender. "What the?! A DARKFANG IN TIER TWO!?" Eeieeiei shouted, nervously. "We gotta get over there!" Feronel raised his shield, and Eeieeiei charged forward. He cut through the Gremlin's Wrench Wand and the unknown Knight shot it with his Blaster. "Maegalink!" Eeieeiei shouted jubilently.
"Hey, Eeieeiei!" Maegalink greeted him. "The elevator's riiiight over there." He directed, pointing west.
"Thanks!" Faronel smiled.
They went onto the elevator, and quickly arrived at Tier 3, Depth 18, Emberlight. After buying a few much needed supplies, the group stepped on the elevator. On the short journey, they squeezed all the metallic clanking sounds* that they could take from their weapons.
Eeieeiei touched his helmet comm and ordered to the team "Eta-9! We need to flank that Darkfang patrol squad. Lets move, asap!"
"Roger that" Faronel responded.
Maega quickly followed, swinging his Tempered Calibur. They leapt at the Darkfang. Or not. This was no Darkfang. The mask, the markings. They were face to face with a member of the Crimson Order. It was Seerus.

*If you read Artimis Fowl, you'd take the reference.
Also, I forgot! I said I had a Tempered Calibur in the description, but I meant Ascended. Thats how Im in Tier 3. So its a ASCENDED calibur for me.

Keep on postin'!

Name: Advent
Gender: Male
Squad: Eta-9
Squad Position: Eta-9 Demo/Recon.
Appearance: Bombastic set(UV is CTR: Vh), Uses all bombs, but his most prefered loadout is: Unstable Jelly Bomb, Stealth Bouncer, Shivermist and BAB. Has a Grey Owlite Shield with his Recon pack.
Alliegance: Spiral Order as a Vanguard.
Species: Knight
Personality: An aggressive, yet tactical bomber who takes pride in his line of work and comes from a line of knights who uses bombing as an art. Despite being useful in his team, he doesn't like Eta-9. Prefers to distance him from them....

He was a high ranking Vanguard who served in the Liberation Of Ilsola, and was then sent to work with some lower rankers(Eta-9) due to an act of insubordination.

For the names you don't know about(Stealth Bouncer, ect.) they are in this thread. He would use these bombs as well with the ingame existing ones: http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/48015

New people coming in

For Ise, Bull will be coming into the story during the Rabid Snarby battle. Read the spoilers if you want detail on what your character might be doing, so you can sign onto one of the ideas. Advent will come in at Depth 23, and Maega and Faronel are in.

Sorry it took so long, guys!

Sorry it took so long, guys! Here;s the new chapter!

Chapter 4
The Crimson Hammer
Depth 17

Seerus lunged at the Knights, swinging his Warmaster Rocket Hammer aimlessly through the air.
"Hey!" Eeieeiei shouted. "Didn't squad Beta-3 destroy you?!"
"NO! No, noo! Im still here!" Seerus laughed maniacally.
"Guys, he's nuts!" Faronel shouted.
"Yeah, I know!" Maegalink responded. "His little Arsenal crashed on his head!"
Seerus slammed his hammer against Faronel, sending him sprawling on the nearby floor. Eeieeiei shot him with his Antigua, but to no avail. He was soon hit with the hammer, but he backfliped to still stand. Maegalink had a direct hit with his Tempered Calibur, severing Seerus' hammer-hand. Then, Eeieeiei thrust his Ascended Calibur through the masked Gremlin. He attacked no more. The guys cheered happily. After about half an hour, a small explosion was seen at the elevator, where Faronel was playing with its internal components.
"I got it rigged!" Faronel yelled excitedly. "It can get us right to Emberlight!"
"Haha! Great work, Faronel!" Eeieeiei cheered.
"Finally! Emberlight at last." A very, very exhausted Maegalink mumbled. The group piled on, and they activated it.
Emberlight, here we come.

Angelic-Tear

nice stuff, sounds interesting. app here if you still recruit :P

Name: Angelic Tear (This is NOT me)

Gender: Female

Armour and Helm: http://imgur.com/a/jePFN#g3TdW and the next picture.

Shield(optional): on her back dude, she is a duel wielder if possible. other wise normal.

Personality: Forget everything - except from smashing stuff with your weapon guys. Fighting: runs into battle like a crazy person, but she is so coordinate that she still gets the job done. NOT fighting: Kind, caring and selfless.

History/Bio: *thinks of a new history* Tear grew up in a harsh environment; her parents died before she would ever have a slight memory of them, and she was left to grow up alone. She swore to herself continually that she would never be unkind to anybody who had done nothing wrong, knowing what pain it can cause. She became friends with the people around her - showing her a whole new life. A life where she was loved, had people to watch her back, was never ever alone, oh how she wished for a life like that. So, she accepted it and during her young adulthood she had a different life. She trained like another, but with more power as she had taught herself such simple things which nobody ever gets taught so never thinks about it, giving her a different approach to almost everything.

Expendability: She doesn't want to die, but will die fighting if it is to protect the people she is with.

Accessories: See Armour and Helm

Class: Swords girl

Weapons: see Armour and Helm

Role: Any thing really. Dunno.

Faction: Good please!

I've done something wrong again haven't I?

NEW CHAPTER!! YES! THANK YOU

NEW CHAPTER!! YES! THANK YOU ANGELIC TEAR!!!!!
Chapter Five
The Dark of the Light (as in Emberlight :P)

The group had arrived at Emberlight with little problem. Sure the elevator broke down a few miles down, but hey, thats what grapple hooks are for. Eeieeiei strolled through the darkened city, who's name of EmberLIGHT truly contradicted its true look of darkness, until he saw a shadow in the dark.
"Maega, you're our photographic memory, who is this?"
"Dunno, Eei." Maegalink said shrugging. The figure advanced until her face could be seen.
"What in the name of Cradle!?" Eeieeiei shouted in disbelief. "Angelic! It's been what? Three years? Great t' see you!"
"Guess so. Great to see you too." She shrugged. She strode over to the rest of Eta-9 and eyed them.
"Hey, guys!" She greeted the squad. "Maega, look at you! Advanced from an Apprentice to a Knight Elite in no time! And Faronel, so happy that you survived the crash. I never trusted that armor o' yours... Where's Bull?"
Eeieeiei turned to the elevator and then looked back at Angelic. He shrugged and guessed "Most likely still finding his way here. I hope he's there once we face this 'Fanged One' as the Strangers call it. Whaddaya think it is?"
Faronel stepped in. He muttered one ominous word slowly, as if saying it rushed would bring great misfortune upon him. "Rabid Snarbolax."
Suddenly the ground started shaking. Perhaps Faronel wasn't as careful as he thought when saying the creature's name. Someone, or someTHING broke through the ground, and all the lights went out. It roared fiercely as it plummeted upward towards them. Refugee Gremlins were running everywhere.
Hello, Snarby.

I lowered the post limit with from 3 to 1 post in between chapters. Again, thanks Angelic!
Keep on postin'!
