Biographical Info

History

Typhys Yuuri was born June 2 on Picon at the Colonial Fleet Headquarters Medical facilities. His entire family has been serving the CF since before the First Cylon War. Typhys and his brother were raised by his Grandfather, a retired Admiral who served in the First Cylon War, and his grandmother until the age of five. He began school at the Military School for children with parents in the CF. When he was sixteen his mother retired from the service and became an instructor at the Colonial Naval Academy and pushed Typhys to his limits.

He was assigned on June 14th, to his Father's Battlestar Group and began his career in the Colonial Fleet onboard the Valkyrie-class Battlestar, Eclipse. He served in the VFA-23 Sunriders Squadron under his older brother, Capt. Andrew Yuuri Jr. the acting CAG. He served with his Father and Brother along the Armistice line for three months before the Eclipse was ordered to civilian rescue operations stand-by. Typhys was part of a few rescue missions during the three years on RO stand-by and had been promoted to Lieutenant JG.

After three and a half years, the Eclipse was ordered for refitting at the Scorpion Fleet Shipyard. The Eclipse arrived at Scorpion Fleet Shipyard nearly a month behind schedule due to engine troubles, forcing Typhys to miss the transfer there. As a result he was forced to ride in a raptor to the Kharon and board it during resupply at the Charybdis Space Station.

Reputation (or Mil. Service)

The Yuuri name is known around the Colonial Fleet by higher ranking officers, but may not be fully known to those under the rank of Major. His mother, Maj. Kim Yuuri, has been one of the flight instructors at the Colonial Naval Academy for eight years. Typhys is not that well known as he keeps tends not to speak much of his family. His high school years at the Military School did not bring him much fame even after the two Championships. He prides himself in staying physically fit aside from being the only one in his family that smokes. Typhys is arrogant and overconfident due to the fact he has so much family in command positions. He is very military minded and lacks a lot of civil clearity when dealing with civilians, but is always willing to help when needed.

Trivia

Typhys Yuuri's first callsign was 'Stitch' onboard the Eclipse due to a scuffle with his brother inwhich Yuuri ended up with stitches through his eyebrow.

During a rescue Op, two of Yuuri's Viper engines cut out and he was forced to make an emergency landing. The accident gained him a new callsign, 'Typhoon', for the way the Viper spun and tore up the deck.

Skills

Yuuri is still a pretty solid Pyramid player and played during his time at the Colonial Naval Academy.
Has been know to hand out Yuurigami objects made of chewing gum foil.
