Two Paragraph Backstory(For Returning players it is only one Paragraph), Five to Seven Sentences per Paragraph.

     Yuri Yukovich was born in 2155 to a family of poor yeomen in Siberia.  When he was four, his brother was sent to the colonies, to never be heard of again.  When he was nine and learned of this, he refused to follow his brother's footsteps.  Most children know what they want to do when they grow up, but young Yuri wasn't one of those people.  One day, when he was twelve, he found an old tractor, and took apart it's dead engine out of pure curiosity.  Soon curiosity turned into interest, then passion.  He managed to reconstruct the tractor when he was fifteen and it became his pride and joy.  Right there and then, he discovered what he wanted to be when he grew up: a mechanic.  He started working as one, fixing cars, lighting, and even power generators. When he was twenty, he was elected "chief mechanic of the village," by default, of course, but he did not want to stay in the little gathering of huts.  He wanted to do something big.  Important.  So, he started working even harder to earn more money so he could go to Kiev.  Eventually, he procured the funds necessary to escape.  The trip consisted of long, hard weeks with little to no food, but he eventually arrived at Kiev.  His dreams were soon crushed, for when he applied for the National Technology University of Ukraine, his application was accepted. To his dismay the yearly price of tuition was well above the amount of rubles in Yuri’s pocket.  He became depressed and turned to drinking.

     Two years later, on a drunken whim Yuri decided to join the army.  Apparently he was rattled up by an old veteran, who called him a coward and a drunk (which is mostly true).  This angered him so thoroughly, he rushed to the nearest recruiting office.  Noting that he was drunk, the recruitment officer detained him for the night, deciding Yuri needed to stay off the streets until he had a cool head.  When he woke up, Yuri interrogated the officer on where he was and why he was there.  Once hearing about his drunken escapade, Yuri grovelled on his knees, apologizing, but the recruitment officer merely chuckled and offered to enlist him, which Yuri reluctantly accepted.  The Alliance soon learned of his engineering capabilities, and reassigned him to the Alliance Engineering Corps.  He was trained to repair tanks and ships instead of tractors.  After 6 months of training, to Private Yuri’s protests, he was assigned to protect a colony along with other various recruits.

     Pvt. Yukovich tapped foot anxiously, he asked the pilot of the transport when they were going to land.  The pilot shrugged, and replied that they will land when they land, causing Yuri to sigh continue his foot-tapping.  He was in the middle of inquiring who they were fighting when he was cut off by the sound of a large “BOOM” and the screech of metal as one of the transport’s wings was blown off, and the transport was forced into a nose dive.  Yuri somehow survived, cushioned by the bodies of his dead comrades, and he eventually managed to open a hatch but immediately closed it to the sight of a dozen brigands rushing to the downed ship.  Yuri was hyperventilating when he bravely (or stupidly) opened the hatch and sprinted into a nearby forest with shots whizzing by his ear.  He eventually stopped, his heart beating like a jackrabbit’s.  He leaned on a large metal object absentmindedly, catching his breath.  Only when he recovered did he realize he was leaning on a derelict tank, most likely belonging to a previous victim.  He inspected the hull and the tires, both were in adequate shape for what Yuri had in mind. He inspected the engine, and found that with a few minor repairs he could get it up and running again.  Much to the pirate’s dismay, a tank rumbled out of the forest, and the brigands promptly scattered.

EDIT: I have played on this server before, but barely, so I guess this would be a returning application
