Other Notable Persons: n/a
Personality: Dave is extremely energetic and outgoing, often pulling pranks and being up to no good, joking/attempting to be witty, as well as hitting on women as much as possible. Because he's considered a talented pilot, he is also a bit cocky when it comes to flying. Unruly and undisciplined, many instructors and officers have struggled to keep him in line. He often pulls pranks to get the attention of others and to try to isolate himself from the group. While he aggressively portrays himself as this superficial being, he secretly and personality struggles with the loss of his father, as well as hating him because he's used to compare with him.
Likes: Pulling pranks, joking, women/hitting on women, getting lots of attention, and flying
Dislikes: being bossed around, talked down to, being compared to his father, being set with high expectations, and suck ups.
Fears: Becoming like his father
Aspirations: To follow his own path and not be compared to his father's career.
Equipment: Viper pilot jumpsuit and helmet
Anything Else?: As previously mentioned, Dave pulls tons of pranks and hits on women. While he enjoys being the class clown, its also his way of acting out over his father's death and father comparison, and also his method of coping with the intensity of war all around him. He both admires and resents his father, largely because of all the qualities that he lacks in himself. Generally, people find him amusing but ultimately annoying, and many people, specifically military folk, secretly would have preferred the father to the son.
History:
Dave was born into a military family on Caprica 24 years before the cylons struck. His father was in the middle of his career, and already making a name for himself. He was a very happy and outgoing kid, that was widely accepted by all.
Early on he was hardworking and a bright student, but around his teenager years found school to be increasingly difficult. The young Dave had a hard time focusing (A.D.D.), and was stressing out over the pressure his teachers gave him. Over the years with the rise of his father in the military, expectations only grew and grew for him. In his teen years, Dave would become a rebel and a misfit, breaking various laws and always getting into trouble. His father always had to get him out of trouble, and at least once or twice, out of jail.
He was going to initially go to art school and pursue a dream of his own, but his father insisted that he pursue a career similar to his own. Although he was accepted into the Caprican Art Academy, he would be forced to turn it down for a uniform in order to appease his insistent father. By pulling some strings, his father placed him on the fast track of a military career and by 22 he received his commission. Following, the young Dave Senate served a year aboard the Gunstar Hephaestus before making a transfer to the Hyperion.
His father, Paul Senate, was a well known and brilliant leader who served on the Battlestar Columbia from 1993 to 1997 as the CO, and then the Trident from 1997 to 2003. In 2004, he was awarded the rank of Admiral, but was not able to fully enjoy his new rank when the cylons struck. Reports that followed all indicate that the widely respected leader fought as best he could defending the colonies to the end.
David's latest posting, aboard the Hyperion, allowed for him to survive the cylon attack. Taking everything day by day, Dave continues to misbehave and still struggles to create an identity of his own, separate from his father's.
