But the War of Life Still Rages On
Welcome to the New Earth
Surviving on the Water
Ever since the ice from the Deep Freeze melted and caused the Earth to be surrounded by water, people have survived on Earth by living on giant fleets of ships. These ships can grow and prosper through obtaining metals and resources through Yunboroughs, mechas that are capable of taking people to the depths of the oceans to retrieve these precious items. Food, water, everything that is needed to survive is harvested either from growth on the fleets or from the seafloor. One of the largest fleets in the worldwide ocean is Gargantia, and this is where our story takes place. Life on Gargantia is very similar to our lives in today’s world, although most of the ‘land’ the people live on is surrounded by metal. Everyone has their own jobs, and it is a money economy. Life here is also very primitive, no computers or phones or anything of the sort, but there is still electricity, harvested from the Lightbugs, tiny nanobots capable of retaining electricity. This primitive lifestyle was the same for decades, even centuries, until now…The Visitor
A couple months ago, a strange Yunborough-like machine was pulled up from the bottom, complete with a living human inside! Turns out, this human and Yunborough, henceforth ‘Chamber,’ were actually from space, and have since helped the denizens of Gargantia learn more about space and those that escaped the Deep Freeze. The human, Ledo, has also learned a great deal about humanity, his enemies, and about himself. After the battle between Chamber and another outer-space-Yunborough named Striker, Ledo and Chamber were victorious and can now live out their lives in peace--- sort of…The Problem
Even though the former problem was resolved and all seems well for the time being, problems still loom on the horizons. After the destruction of Striker, Chamber was also destroyed, somewhat. Blasted far away, it took Chamber a long time to recharge and self-rebuild. After three long months, Ledo is accustomed to life on Gargantia, being a top researcher of ancient ruins under the water’s depths. Now, Chamber is back and life is good again. However, pirates and other evildoers still lurk on the seas and will stop at nothing to get Gargantia’s treasures, and so are in constant danger.

||ScreenName: Tobster100||Character Name: Ledo||Canon or OC: Canon||Age: 16||Gender: Male||Job: Archaeologist/Defender ||Physical Appearance: Ledo is a tall, lanky young man that doesn't have much strength besides what would be normal for a person. He has short, silvery hair that doesn't appear to grow very much and he has deep violet eyes that appear red in low light. He has fairly pale skin, though it is darkening over time. For clothes, he usually wears his technologically advanced fighter-pilot suit when he's going diving or when necessary. However, more and more he is beginning to wear shorts and t-shirts like the rest of the denizens, most likely at Amy's request. He still carries his laser gun for emergencies and usually has his Hideauze-flute and Chamber's communication device clipped to his belt. ||Personality: Ledo is a very quick-minded man, capable of making microsecond decisions and taking the best course of action. However, being from outer space and having the local language as his second means he is a bit of an outsider, but he is making friendships rapidly and has an especially deep connection with Amy, whom he loves. ||Family: None ||Crush/Partner: Dating Amy ||Other: (Optional) ||
