Fiction:Ramcard

Introduction.
The most famous and well known captain of Rambo Nation. He is the Captain of the Excelsior Refit Class, the USS Dallas. An experienced Captain he saw action in many battles. He is mostly active in the Inner Colonies and likes to go on diplomatic missions. With his crew and ship, he first explored the wormholes and made first contact with the Algarnons, the Creckels, the Victreeions and the Hutters. He is proud of his nation and will fight till the bitter end, but he is also a little bit unrealistic, not accepting defeat and seeing his Nation undefeatable. Which has proven wrong with the recent Lizardians Attack and Resistance Ambushes. As one of the most active Captains of the space nay he comes in contact with alien life a lot. Some say he is the Captain of the new discoveries. A role he likes to take upon himself.

Together with Captain Rambas II and Captain Ramaxar they are the oldest and most experient Captains in Rambo Nation. He is also a respected Captain within the Fleet.

Early years (288 BQF- 270 BQF)
Ramcard was born at 288 BQF, at the Rambo Capital. In his youth he was a little bit troublesome, as he was often involved in fights and other troubles children get themselves in (one time he has accidently locked himself up in school, setting up the alarm the police had to come to check the situation).

From his 2nd year, he dreamt to command a space ship once, to fly through space and explore new regions and species. Any further information about his youth is not known.

Serving in the Military (270 BQF- 263 BQF)
At the age of 18 Ramcard joined the Military and saw action during the Heer Stekeveel Wars, in which he saw terrible battles and once got wounded by a bullet. Due to his skill and resolve, he was promoted to the rank Lieutenant. He once saved his team from an ambush by Heer-Stekeveel forces on a rocky planet. At the end of the war Captain Rambas II approached Lt. Ramcard, saying he had a perfect new job for him, which would make his dreams come true!

Serving onboard the USS Excelsior (263 BQF-220 BQF)
Captain Rambas II transferred Lt. Ramcard to the USS Excelsior, where he recieved training and after 6 months he served as his tactical officer, remaining his position as Lieutenant. Ramcard joined the crew of the USS Excelsior at the age of 25.

Around 227 BQF, Ramcard wittnessed the forming of the Noble Alliance, something he supported, and became a key member in overseeing the rebuilding of the Kloppig Empire, which was devasted by the Heer Stekeveel Wars. After the rebuilding Ramcard was promoted to Commander and he oversaw construction of Rambo Command, which would integrate the militairy and space fleet better. However he only had this function for about 4 months before Ramcard recieved another promotion.

Captain of the USS Dallas (220 BQF-02 AQF)
After 43 year Ramcard was finally promoted to captain at 220 BQF, the year the Diva Bettie War started, and his dream to become a captain finally become reality. Ramcard recieved command of his own starship, the Excelsior Refit Class, the USS Dallas. He was part of the fleet which broke through Diva Bettie Ranks and helped taking over the Diva Bettie Capitol. The war lasted 5 years and after the war he got an assignment to explore Noble Alliance Space, something which took over 75 years to do. During this time he met his wife, and they married and got 3 children. They also remained at the ship.

When the Algernon wars started at 52 BQF, he was put back into action and battle and was mostly patrolling borders of the Kloppig Empire. He was part of the invading forces and helped taking over the Algernon Colonies. After the Algernon War, which lasted for 40 years, Captain Ramcard became a key person in the Noble Alliance, mostly acting at their behalf and taking missions for the Noble Alliance. Among the Fleet, they called him 'The Alliance Captain', something he was really proud of.

Although he regret not being active in battles, because he is missing action against the Resistance and the Lizardians. Another thing he regrets, is that his youngest grand daughter, Ramnandesh joined the Resistance, he sees this as a failure of his position of Head of the Family.

Seven Star Alliance (22 BQF)
He was recently promoted to Fleet Captain and he has been given command of the 12th Fleet to aid the Seven Starr Alliance against a new enemy. But when attackes were not going to happen, Rambo Command withdrawn Captain Ramcard and the Fleet, but Ramcard dit send the USS Luna under command of Captain Rambam to aid Captain Zacco. After making contact with Rambo Command, he kept his promotion as Fleet Captain and was ordered to return to Quadrant 82.

When on the return home he encountered a new wormhole and contacted Rambo Command, they ordered him to explore the wormhole. But when entering the wormhole systems were falling out and so when exiting the wormhole the ship was left driffless. Although they managed to repair the systems and send a distress call. They then encountered another wormhole were a unidentified ship was coming out..............

It later turned out the ship wasn't coming out and had vanished somehow. And so Captain Ramcard was called back to Rambo Commander by the new Empress and was given the mission to investigate the members of the Imperial Alliance.

Galactic War(4 BQF-3 BQF)
When hearing a transmission that the Imperial Alliance had sieged the Rambo Capitol System, he took his fleet and aided the 5th and 1st Fleets stationed there. When Ramcard arrived with the fleet the tide turned into the favor of the Rambo defenders and they forced the Imperials in retreat.

Later Captain Ramcard joined forces with Captain Ramaxar to defend the Braafrena system against a Imperial Invasion force led by Lizardian Commander Lizkrahmkyn. The battle took place near the Colonie of Reien and during the fight Captain Ramcard and a few ships of the 12th Fleet destroyed the Redeemer after it was crippled by the USS Sovereign. During the battle of Reien Lizkrahmkyn had perished, but both Ramcard and Ramaxar did not knew how it happened.

He later came to the resque with a combined fleet of Capricornian Sector Alliance, Noble Alliance, Swerion Trade Federation and his 12th Fleet to engage the Imperial and Tralor forces in the Dissia System. During the fight he took Captain Tul of the Tralor Empire Captive and aided in the removal of all enemy forces in the Dissia System.

Resque of Ramtilsae
After returning to the Rambo Capitol System he was called into a meeting between the Empress, Admiral Yanis and the Judge Magister. There he was given the task to save Princess Ramtilsae from the Tralor, and he was given aid from Admrial Yanis.

During the travels and mission he began learning the ways of how the Tralor lived and talked a lot with Yanis. When encoutering the Tralor ship, he engaged it and a resque party save the Princess. He met with her in sickbay and said she was safe now. He then plotted a course back to the Rambo Capitol System.

Second Galactic War (0 BQF)
However, to go to the Rambo Capitol they first had to take the Dissia Wormhole. Upon exiting the wormhole, the Ramcard was taken under attack by the Chimera, under command of his arc enemy, the Lizardian Commander. The USS Dallas her escort was soon destroyed and the USS Dallas and Ramcard were forced to retreat. But he was unable to inform Rambo Command, as the Chimera had crippled the long range communications. When arriving at the Capitol, he was sad to learn that Koerband, and the prabably the Dissia System was once again fallen in hands of the Imperial Alliance. A new war had started, which Ramcard was unsure Rambo Nation could hold off all the attacks.

During most part of the war Ramcard had other duties to attend too but was called for aid when the Defender under command of Captain Lizassk was approaching the Colonie of Pauvenris, which is located in the Braafrena System. He took the USS Dallas and with some aid of CSA vessels he managed to stop Lizassk convoy and the Lizardian Captain was forced to withdrawn.

He later participated in the massive defeat of the Rambo forces when the Rambo Capitol fell into Imperial hands. However, he was also present during the singing of the Quadrantia Threaty and aided in liberating the Rambo Capitol. Later on, he ambushed Captain Lizaconda and the Liberty and managed to take both captive after a fierce and difficult battle.

When the recenlty revealed Federation of Core Worlds contacted Rambo Nation and allied them, Ramcard was send an a diplomatic mission to the Core Federation territory to meet there rulers and open diplomatic negotiations. After doing that, he reported back to Empress Ramashe and explained the wonders and peacefullness he witnessed there and he now awaits Empress Ramashe her arrival. To meet with the Queen of the Core Federation. After Ramashe her state visit to the CoreFed Ramcard stayed for a little while, learning more of the Ravenrii and there culture. After archiving this in the USS Dallas her database he set course to return to Quadrant 82. Rambo Command ordered him to re-supply some ships guarding the Cyrannus Wormhole leading to Quadrant 82 he arrived at that location and was met with a great surprise. The guarding task force was crippled and in ruins, as a Hunter Class vessel of the URC was engaging a purple ship, a Cognatus ship Ramcard ordered to open fire with photon torpedos. This was in vain as the Cognatus ship managed to destroy the Hunter Class and entered the wormhole. Ramcard persued, but was unable to locate the Cognatus ship, as Rambo Command informed him that the ship went of radar. He then returned to the Rambo Capitol.

March of the Apocalypse (01 AQF)
Upon arriving there, he recieved vital information that the Xhodocto had broken there truce and had declared war to the universe again. He then recieved orders from Ramashe herself to go to the Colonie of Rampatakov where a battle between the allies forces and the Xhodocto had broken out, under command of Master Kroc Ramcard participated in this battle with a task force, however he was unable to prevent Master Kroc his death at the hands of Kamik'Shi himself. Ramcard later found himself in trouble together with Kilnok and both fought hard, when all seemed lost both of them and the USS Dallas were saved by Bo-Ramik. During the March of the Apocalypse the USS Dallas recieved a massive update (the V2 Update) upon her short return to the Rambo Capitol to re-supply. There witin a couple of days she also recieved the V2 status and returned to Tuuros to participate in the battle against the Xhodocto. But before doing so, he headed to  Ramaprica where he witnessed the marriage of Admiral Creteaceous, the famous URC Admiral. After the marriage he returned to the battle fields, but found the left behind army destroyed. Saddened, he continued to press on and arrived at the Night Gate, when they faced a Xhodocto, they almost lost there lives, but were saved by the Judge of the Shrine whom arrived with a large fleet and a lot of Ground forces.

He later aided Amdiral Kilnok on his quest and also witnessed the re awakening of the URC God, Apollo. Later during the last battle, he witnessed Kamik-Shi his defeat and the end of the War of Ages. Shorlty afterwards, he returned back to Rambo Nation where he and Ramikku were hailed as heroes. He now prepares to repair his battlefleet and to aid the Fleet of Retribution, whom were figthing the dreaded Cognatus.

Post-March (1 AQF)
However, to his great surprise he was send to patrol the borders and Ramcard grew really bored, including his crew. Ramcard was wondering, if tis what you get after facing the Xhodocto? Patrol duties and fighting boredom?

After a few week of patrolling with no action whatsoever and when he almost fell a sleep in his command chair, all of a sudden a massive ship dropped out of space. Taken by surprise and close to eachother the two ships almost collided and he opened a channel for communication. To his surprise, he was shocked to learn it resembled a Capricornian. It was Captain Coura of the Federal Republic of Adeplh. He never heard of such organisation, but then again, most of Quadrant 82 has not been explored. So he took them to the Rambo Capitol where he introduced the Captain to Empress Ramashe and President Apollo. An alliance was formed and Ramcard was pleased, till he heard what his follow up duties were. Patrolling again. Almost screaming in agony in barely keeping his temper in front of his Empress (a rarity, Ramcard almost never looses his nerves) an emergency transmission was recieved by the Girdo Empire. And Ramashe gave it too Ramcard, he was to lead a Task Force in aiding the Girdo in destroying project Emperor. After completion of this mission Ramcard returned to the Rambo Capitol because he was summoned by the Empress to Rambo City (Rambo Command). He was surprised to learn of her X-452 treatment and the various events that occurred. Shortly before the meeting he met with the Trivoid and made first contact with the species. He brought this topic at the meeting and the two nation decided to ally. Also at the meeting he was given a special team added to his crew, a team of X-Serindia, also genetical engineered Serindia in service of Rambo Command. He was not happy with it, as his second in command was replaced and the USS Dallas became a more classified ship, even though it was a quite a famous ship. After the meeting Empress Ramashe had a personal talk with him, she explained her motives and Ramcard knew, he was to be seen at the frontlines again.

Mission with Rambo Team! (01 AQF)
Shorlty after the meeting he led an expedition to the Trivoid and later returned to the Rambo Capitol to meet this Rambo Team. At first, Ramcard could not understand why these creatures were even called X-Serindia, although they were called X-Serindia. He none took the Rambo Team, consisting out of X-210, his new Second in Command, X-599, a brutal and large X-Serindia and X-493, the leader of the Rambo Team onboard and headed for the edges of Rambo Space and the Imperial Alliance. His objective and that of the Rambo Team was to capture Eear'Chisarlyna'Vaerynicz, an Imperial Captain whom command the USS Guinevere. However she was near the Adarga, an Imperial Star Destroyer II and after they exited warp they engaged the Imperial forces. Thanks to precision phasers by X-210 both the Adarga and the USS Guinevere were taken out and X-599 and X-493 took a shuttle and landed in the Adarga shuttlebay. There they headed to the bridge and after some pounding, they defeated the Imperial Clone Troopers there and took Chisarlyna captive. They brought her back to the USS Dallas where she was send to the brick. Ramcard complimented the Rambo Team and headed back to the bridge, expecting a report on the situation. The Rambo Team was happy, especialley X-210 whom found it difficult to be Ramcard's second in command, but during the battle she got the feeling Ramcard began to trust her. X-599 enjoyed this mission, there was a lot of pounding and hitting to be done and he liked that X-493 was pleased with there results, but wondered why the Adarga was not fully equipped and he also wondered how many Clone Troopers the Imperial Alliance would have. Ramcard and the Rambo Team then prepared themselves to investigate rumors of the Attack on Mirenton and the Cult of the Deathmarch. He was also promoted to Vice-Admiral upon this time. ===Vice-Admiral of Rambo Nation (02 AQF-Current)

Continued Service
During his search for the Cult of the Deathmarch he met a new race in Quadrant 82 her unexplored regions, the Amiaeria and the Zarbriaek, both whom allied Rambo Nation later on during the Battle of Fornaeria. As the battle of Fornaria seemingly ended, Rambo Command recieved a distress call that a Chinwakya (a new member of Rambo Nation) Battle Cruiser was in trouble. As the USS Ticonderoga was already headed there, Ramcard also wanted to aid and ordered Rambo Team to prepare for battle as his crew. But at arrival the unknown ship destroyed the Pantaria and escaped Ramcard. . It then headed for Fornaeria and Ramcard contacted Ramuchi to prepare a welcoming party. Afterwards Ramcard returned to his duties and Rambo Team left, though exploring nearby systems again he was happy with the moment of peace but was called in action as the Burning Heretic, a Confederacy Ship attacked the Rambo Prime Space Station, which monitored the Wormhole Plataue. Making contact with the bounty hunter Zavrancence he made a deal and in return the Cognati Captain was captured by Ramcard and send back to Ramghatulk, which he recenlty escaped with aid of the Confederacy. Ramcard then headed back towards the capital planet, and passed the Metruia Nebula, located between Rametru Nui and the Dissia System. Mid-way Lieutenant Giusti informed Ramcard she picked something on sensors. However, before able to react the USS Dallas was rocketed by an explosion and a Venator Class came out of the nebula, which was commanded by Admiral Lizaconda, the Liberty II forced Ramcard on the defensive and was forced to retreat.
