The Pan Pacific Defense Corps is an organization set up to battle the Kaiju threat through the use of Jaegers. Founded in 2014, the Corps represents an international alliance of 21 nations across the Pacific Rim, bound together by the shared goal of containing, combating and eliminating the Kaiju threat and save humanity from extinction.

In 2014, after the first Kaiju attack on San Francisco, the Pan Pacific Defense Corps was created with the purpose of defending the various countries surrounding the Pacific Ocean that would be under attack from the Kaiju. Soon after, the headquarters of the Pan Pacific Defense Corps was established in Hong Kong, China, this being the first Shatterdome. After Dr. Jasper Schoenfeld pitched the idea of creating giant mechs to battle the kaiju, the Corps were formed to fund the Jaeger Program.

SO, YOU WANT TO PILOT A JAEGER. LET'S SEE IF YOU'RE UP TO SNUFF.

Welcome to Kodiak Island. For the next 24 weeks you'll have the chance to prove that you've got what it takes to be among the few who can pilot a Jaeger. We need capable pilots, so if you don't think you can hack it, better drop out now. The course will follow the following format, so listen up, you have:

1) OFFICER TRAINING:
You will be studying tactics, some engineering, basic kaiju science, etc. Study good and study hard and if you're lucky enough to make the cut, we'll be shipping your sorry asses on to —

2) PONS TRAINING:
There is a mock-pod simulator where you will learn how to drift with your chosen partner. Can't find a partner? Too bad. You might have the physical skills and the brains to go with it, but if you can't bring yourself to work with another human being, then what the hell are you doing here.

3) JAEGER TRAINING:
Alright, you've made it. Report to the test range and get your asses in a Jaeger.

INSTRUCTIONS →
1. Post with your character/canon/preferences.
(Mod Note: Pacific Rim OCs are very much welcome, if not encouraged.)
2. Tag others. Tag a LOT.
3. Have FUN or we'll feed you to the kaiju.

[ There's a programming error that'll take about two or more hours to fix, so suddenly Caitlin finds that she has a free stretch of time and a reminder that she only had half a sandwich for breakfast.

She pulls out her phone and sends out a message. ]

you free?

i'm thinking of grabbing something from the mess
before i head on over to the kwoon

[ tam is doing a whole lot of nothing when her phone buzzes, so the text and the invite are both very welcome. ]

Sure. Meet you there in 5?

k, see you in a bit :>

[ It's five minutes later and she's saying thank you to the server when she turns around to see Tam walking over, and Caitlin smiles, hand coming out to offer the second paper cup, cap in place. ]

Got you your favorite. Thank you for being free to hang out.

I'm always free for you, Doc.

[ especially when caitlin is so thoughtful and gets her the best coffee the mess has to offer. ]

We sticking around here or heading elsewhere?

Sergio told me that there are these two potentials worth taking a look at.

[ She has really great clearance, and she could cite that as the reason why she gets great coffee, but the mess crew like her and as a result they give her nice things. ]

Let's go to the Kwoon and you can tell me how your tactics class went.
