Character Biography

August 30 2015
Full Name: Guillaume Gaspard Lasserre
Age: 36 Earth years
Race: Human, Trill, Joined w/a Symbiont
Rank: Vice Admiral
Ship: U.S.S. Chateau Bouclier (Odyssey Class)

His fathers side a long list of explorers & admirals, dating all the way back to the late medieval ages; his mothers side all diplomats and lawyers, with even an ancestor who basically made Trill's application to the Federation possible: Lasserre got the best of both.
This unique set of genes and skills and the intelligence to match both, Lasserre had decided to join the Starfleet at a very young age, much to the approval of his parents and helped him prepare for it (without forcing him to grow before his time).

At age 15 Lasserre came home from school to a surprise. Another Trill was visiting them and it was not a family member. It turned out this Trill was a member of the board that approves people for a Symbiont and Lasserre was asked to be tested. He was found fit and joined with a new Symbiont (meaning Lasserre was this Symbiont's first host). Upon joining however (from this moment onwards, "Lasserre" refers to the joined Lasserre-Symbiont), Lasserre decided to keep the name Lasserre, since he wasn't happy with the name the Symbiont was given at birth and the Symbiont had been feeling like this even before joining. Although the tests and training for the joining resulted in Lasserre join Starfleet Academy a few years later then planned, he valued this chance more than anything else.

About ten years after his graduation, Lasserre was commander on the U.S.S. Lyssa, a Sovereign class cruiser, when his ship was trapped and boarded by Klingon raiders. Whilst Lasserre was fighting an extremely brutal room-by-room battle with the raiders (one of the officers later said it reminded him of his holodeck adventures of the World War II), they managed to board the bridge and the captain was killed. Although Lasserre was rushing through the fighting, the captain could not be safed anymore. Lasserre ordered a ship wide evacuation by transporter and set the Lyssa on a ramming course to one Klingon ship and beamed the whole Federation crew to two of the other Klingon ships (their shield were disabled during the battle), effectively taking them over by superior numbers and able to continue the battle against the remaining three warbirds. During this boarding operation, Lasserre fought a Klingon captain with a Bath'let, almost resulting in him getting killed. Lasserre decided he wanted the scar to remain visible, and so it dominates the right side of his face to this day.

This whole ordeal earned him a promotion and a new ship, the Odyssey class U.S.S. Chateau Bouclier.

Does Oregon Trail count as a video game? I remember playing that, Number Munchers, and Lemonade Stand, in school. My first console game was the GOLD The Legend of Zelda for NES. I was like 10 or 11 and in my first foster home and I fell in love with Zelda and Nintendo. :-)

The very first Age of Empires on my father's pc, back when my parents had the shop (I think in 1996 or 1997), I was about five or six years old, maybe even younger, I'm not sure anymore.
One of the clearest memories I have from back then (at this point I was just watching what my father was doing) was that I was surprised by the fact that if a building got destroyed seemingly without reason, meant there was an enemy archer or something in the fog of war (remember, I was only about five years old :P ).
I think it was Age of Empires II that really got me addicted to games. Played that game for years (always with cheats back then :blush: ).

Mine: 2 years old - 1988 - MS-DOS - Sesame Street ABCs - sitting on my dad's lap at the computer smashing on buttons. I literally can still remember this. I bet that's why video games play such a huge part in my life :)

Cheers,

Brandon =/\=

wow those are some restrictions lol...is world pvp so serious in this game that people would go to those lengths in mass pnuttbuttah?

The more competitive a game mode is, the greater lengths players will go to grief and exploit. The problem with opening up parts of a game to F2P is that it guarantees anonymity with no accountability. Those types of players will do anything when there's nothing to lose by being caught.

Sincerely hope they limit F2P players to EotM and not grant them access to the regular WvW maps. There will be endless legions of F2P accounts created expressly to sabotage enemy servers:

  • spy/report on enemy communications, troop movements, defensive posture, etc.
  • raise enemy servers to WvW population caps to prevent new players / transfers
  • queue maps to population caps to prevent enemy players from joining
  • misbuild/misplace defensive siege so area siege caps prevent legitimate siege placement
  • suicide enemy golem siege
  • waste supply in enemy depots
  • etc. etc. etc.
