Name:Captain Arnold J. Rimmer, BSc, SSc
Website:Poseidon Academy
Bio:My name is Arnold J. Rimmer, but I'm sure you already know that, considering my highly celebrated career where I come from. I'm something of a war hero, after all, and everyone looks up to me. They find me irresistable. Absolutely irresistable. Women want me and men want to be me.

So what if that's the smegging description of that gimboid Ace? He just got all the lucky breaks, that's all. It's not like I'm all that different. He's just more well respected. Has better hair. More sex appeal. Bravery, where I'm a bloody coward. He's... nothing at all like me. Smeg.

He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer √


History: Arnold Judas Rimmer was the underachieving child in a family with three other brothers. While he was forced to live up to impossible standards by his parents, he pretty much never made them. Furthermore, he was always overshadowed by the success of his brothers. This was definitely a large influence on shaping his personality in later years. He got this constant drive to achieve success, but, being something of a natural loser, always fell short of it. And when he fell short, he suffered the supreme disappointment of his family. Thus, the warring ego/neuroses were brought out in full force.

Eventually, Rimmer left home, and went to apply in the Space Corps. He disowned his family, divorcing himself from his parents while a young teen. When in the space corps he became fully obsessed with his work. But, alas, he still fell short. Several times, he attempted to take the astronavagation exam to advance his career to be an officer, and each and every time, he failed it. He was resigned to fate as a lowly third technician on board the mining ship Red Dwarf. Eventually, though, he DID get himself a promotion at long last. To second technician.

When Rimmer was assigned to room with one Dave Lister, things changed for good soon after. He didn't get along with this new roommate, who was very much his polar opposite in many ways. But it wasn't long before disaster hit the ship in the form of a radiation leak (which he was partially responsible for). All of the crew was killed, aside from Lister, who was shut away in stasis. Three million years later, Rimmer was brought back in the form of a Hologram- since he was apparently the one crewmember who could keep Lister from going insane.

Over the adventures on Red Dwarf, many things have befallen Rimmer and the rest of the crew. He's double-crossed and messed up plenty of times, yet has occasionally come through for their odd assortment of crewmates. As a hologram, Rimmer was unable to touch anything solid, but an encounter with a lifeform known as "Legion" gave him a hard light capability. Thus, he became solid and able to touch things again.

In time, the entirety of Red Dwarf was reconstructed, including Rimmer, and he was thus returned to life. More problems and conflicts occurred with the rest of the crew, and eventually another disaster hit the ship. Death himself came to claim Rimmer, and Rimmer whacked him with a strong solid kick, intending to defy him. Alas, this didn't work so well, and Rimmer has found himself once again a hard light hologram. Something happened when the ship reconstructed him, though, which made him get randomly stuck on the island of Arcadia, in an alternate dimension to the earth he once came from. To make ends' meet, he needed a job. Thanks to his obsessive dorky knowledge of old military generals, he (somehow) secured a job in the history department instructing courses along those lines.

For his first months at Arcadia, Rimmer taught courses and attempted to get students to go along with his rather crazy saluting methods, among other things. He made some rather extensive to-do lists as well, as a way to spend spare time. The list itself took months of color-coding. Once he had that set, he attempted to follow to somewhat mixed results (he painted his room just fine, but learning astronavigation made his brain overload). Once the nexus got unstable, he relocated to Poseidon with everyone else. To his extreme disgust and misfortune, some familiar faces also showed up- none other than Dave Lister and the Cat, people he had known and believed left behind on the ship.

When the nexus suffered an instability, Rimmer ended up with everyone else at Poseidon. Much to his disgust, he was sharing his quad now not only with Lister but with a drunken pirate- Captain Jack Sparrow. Somehow, Rimmer has managed to survive his living conditions, as difficult as it's been. He has also seen many crazy things happen on campus, for the most part running and hiding when a threat emerges. When he found a painting he liked depicting one of his heroes- Napoleon- he soon became possessed as many others had, turning into a warped version of himself. This other self trashed his room, stole Jack's rum, and acted otherwise un-Rimmer-like. When returned to normal, Rimmer experienced much confusion. He took a long while setting his room back in order, to some success. Unfortunately, Lister and Jack undid all his hard work, making the room even more appalling than before. To celebrate, they brought him on a victory cruise. Rimmer vowed too avoid ships and especially pirates after that experience.

Without him life would be much grimmer √


Personality: Rimmer only wishes he was more important than he is. He also wishes he was smarter, braver, and all around cooler, too. However, he is not any of those things. He has a strong set of neuroses, which are always at odds with his extremely inflated ego. It's quite a messed up combination in one person. He's pretty much always looking out for himself above others, as well. He's fond of war and the idea of being a great general, yet at the same time he's an extremely big coward. Going by the book is important to him, and he can be obsessive in this area. He's also very anal retentive and something of a neat freak. Rimmer is a very obnoxious individual, but somewhere underneath that exterior is a (sort of) ok guy.

He's handsome, trim, and no-one slimmer √


Weapon(s): He doesn't have any- he's a coward! ;D And hologrammatic.

Appearance/physical attributes: Rimmer looks like an average man with short brown hair, always wearing a military-style outfit. Even on Arcadia, he insists on having his clothes be standard issue Space Corps outfits, much like things he wore on Red Dwarf. He is not very good in a fight at all- in fact he's probably become a decent runner over the years from all the confrontations he's run from. One of the distinct physical attributes about Rimmer is that he's a hologram. He has the "H" on his forehead denoting him as such. An encounter with a bizarre lifeform has given him the ability to touch things, thanks to a hard light drive. A light bee (a tiny device hovering in the air) is what provides his presence, and allows him to exist, even away from the ship.

He will never need a zimmer √

Theme song: The Rimmer Munchkin Song

How come he's such a genius? Don't ask me! √
