"Come a time there won't be room in the 'verse for naughty men like us to slip about.  So here we are, on the raggedy edge.  Don't push me.....
And I won't push you."

There came a time when Earth-that-was could no longer support human life...

Yeah, you all know the story.  So I won't bore you with a history lesson.

However, after the broadcast put out from Mister Universe's station by Captain Malcolm Reynolds of the Serenity, Alliance Command has begun cracking down on smugglers, as well as ferreting out the various Reaver holdout areas on the fringes.  Most smugglers have gone completely legitimate, with the remainder dealing through networks and various false monikers.

However, all is not well with the Alliance.  Rumors are growing both in Parliament and in the general populace of a revival of the Independence movement, or 'Browncoat Rebellion' as it was called during the war.  Of course, the Alliance Parliament scoffs, discounting these rumors as the ramblings of idle minds, with nothing better to complain about now that most freighters are legitimate and the Reavers are being pushed back.

You are members of the crew of one of the last remaining smugglers (one of the players, hopefully.  I would prefer not to NPC him/her.)  This game is going to chronicle your adventures through the 'verse, and the hilarious antics that will ensue.

I'm going to leave this open to five, MAYBE six people.  It's set some twenty years after the events of Firefly and Serenity, combining the two slightly.  Mal has gone legit, but is making more than enough money to keep the Serenity as one of the top small freighters in the 'verse.

Once I get enough interested players, we'll make a decision over whether we're going to use system or just freeform it.

SO.  Who's interested?

Wow.  That's four.  Only one spot open as of right now.  And @Star: I guess I should go hunting for that, shouldn't I?  :P  Thought I was waiting to see if one of my players took captain so I could see what THEY had in mind too.

Heh. I find it supremely ironic that someone who wants to join a Firefly RP is named Shiny.  :P

Pretty in Pink

ZOMG REIJI!  *glomps*  Are you in or out, btw?  And I know, right?  Hence my comment immediately after the initial interest post.

Most likely.  If we did a system, would we be using the actual Firefly system, or no?

And we all need to get onboard with nicknaming Shiny's character Shiny.  :P

RubySlippers

Have room for a defrocked Companion who well has all the classic skills and some new ones, well damn it so she was funding a lovebot factory they didn't have to kick her out.

Pretty in Pink

MEEP!  I wasn't expecting interest to explode like that.  I can open it to six, I guess....  Yeah, sure.  Why not.

@Reiji: Yes, it would be the Firefly/Serenity system if we go system.

Uhm....  Oh!  Character sheet!

Pretty in Pink

We have yet to decide if we're actually going to do system yet, Reiji.  Hehe.  So slow down a second.  I'll take that post, however, as a vote for System.

So!  Everyone involved.  Would you prefer System or Freeform?  If it comes to a tie, I will be the breaker vote.

*glances in again* This is starting to remind me of the last tub I was on...look away for five minutes and everything blows up on you.

As I'm not actually familiar with the system, however, I believe I'll have to vote freeform, unless someone is kindhearted enough to explain it to me in bitty words.
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got.

Starlequin, given how the company that makes the system is out of business, I might be able to point you in the direction of the book in question...

Hrm, yeah...thats about where Im afraid I'll have to start complicating things. I don't have internet access at home on anything but my phone, so ordinarily I would take my laptop into town to surf on a hotspot and...acquire the requisite source books from there. However, thanks to getting spanked with a breakdown, I'm currently without a car and thus housebound until Dec 1st or so, meaning i wont be having any opportunities to go...er, shopping, as it were. So. Scale of 1-10. How hard is this system to  pick up?

Edit: damn my furiously slow thumbs and tendency for distractions...

Edit, part II: I'm just gonna go ahead and stick with my vote to freeform this puppy.
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got.

endiemyon

It looks like most of the material for the system has been taken off the website to be reposted later.  Anybody have soft copies?

Pretty in Pink

I'm in the process of finding my copy of the book and getting it scanned into PDF format (gotta love high-tech stuffs)  As for how hard...  Uhm...  No clue?  :D  I'll be doing a lot of learning in the next couple of days myself, so don't feel too out of place.

ReijiTabibito

Starlequin?  Do you have any past experience with systems?  If so, which ones?

Having picked up the corebook when it was originally released, I can say that it's not very complicated, probably no more than a 5.  It's kind of your standard Relevant Attribute + Skill to do Task dice roll vs. a standard difficulty for tasks, and opposed for combat system.

Starlequin

Eh, Reiji, I know Sorcerer pretty well, and I've been learning old and new WoD for a while now. This doesn't sound too bad then, but I'm still gonna go ahead and stick with voting freeform, as that seems to be pulling majority so far.
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got.

Pretty in Pink

Also, I don't care if you fill out the character sheet I made on the first page there, but if everyone could start listing out their concepts and what position they're going to be looking at for their character, that would be great.

POSITIONS NEEDED:

Captain
Pilot
Mechanic
Medical

POSITIONS AVAILABLE:
ABOVE
Co-Pilot
Weapons Tech (Think Jayne.  Nice way of putting it.)
Companion
First Officer

Now, I will allow combinations of multiple purposes.  However, certain ones are NOT going to be allowed, as not making much sense in my mind.  Companion/Mechanic is definitely off limits.  Think Inara, and now picture her doing what Kaylee does.  Doesn't really work, does it?

Going to throw my concept out there right now.  Kid who enlisted with the Browncoats only to join in time for the Battle of Serenity Valley on Hera...meaning that he was an Independent for all of about 15 minutes in the grand scheme of the war.  Probably in his late thirties by now.

Positions capable of being filled by him are, as they appear in PiP's post:

Captain
First Officer
Weapons Tech

Picturing him as a soldier-type build, with probably a bit of skill in flying the ship.  Not much, though.

Pretty in Pink

Okay.  I was a little leery as I didn't know something, but now that I know it, I'm going to go ahead and warn people ahead of time.  If it comes to a tie, we're going system.

Myth-weavers has a Serenity RPG sheet matrix.  Yeah, boy!

So yeah.  Vote's still out though.  Oh, Endie, feel free to post in what you would like to play.  I have no issues with you posting it up.

I would vote System and would be interested in Captain, Pilot, Weapons specialist.  Just FYI in case you need that info from me.

Starlequin

I'm thinking either a medico who scraped and struggled to get off his rural homeworld to come to Alliance territory to study, but got fed up with the bureaucracy and regulations that stand in the way of actually helping people who need it and signs on with the crew to bring better medical care to the outer rim, or someone who used to work legit but ended up being cheated and ruined by the Alliance's regard for the Law instead of justice (either captain or pilot, whichever isn't taken by the time I get to post this.) I'll fill out the CS after I grab something to eat.

I had been working on a Medic, female, born and raised on Persephone but I had interest in a Companion if Medic is taken.

Also, letting everyone know, aside from Captain, Pilot, and First Officer, I have no problem if all of you want to play the same thing.  I could have those three, a Mechanic, and two weapon specialists for all I care.  :P  Makes it interesting.

ALRIGHTY!  Heads up everyone.  Your ship is landing!

Dimesions: 280 X 155 X 60 feet
Equipment:  1-25 ton shuttle
   Another workhorse from the Kieran Yards stables is the Osprey Class Mid-bulk transport.  Larger overall than the ubiquitous Firefly, but with slightly smaller internal volume the Ospreys are designed as a fast, sturdy transport for use throughout the System.  Their design emphasizes rugged capability, low maintenance, large passenger and cargo capacity, and sturdy service. 
   The entire lower bay is given over to cargo operations, and measures roughly 90ft x 63 ft x 20 ft.  The cargo bay is fitted with a two piece ramp/hatch combination that allows extremely large cargos to be loaded and with a belly mounted “bomb bay” cargo hatch as well. A spiral staircase at the forward starboard corner allows access to the Crew Deck. 
   The Crew Deck is large and spacious, with comparatively wide corridors and a large lounge area and berthing compartments.  The Crew deck is forked port and starboard, providing a center-line berth and pair of docking ports for a single shuttlecraft.  The ports are fitted with telescoping access tunnels which easily accommodate larger and smaller shuttles. Two dorsal air-lock hatches (one forward, one aft-port) provide EVA access to the top of the ship.
   Unusual for a civilian mid-bulk transport, the Ospreys are fitted with an integral two-bed infirmary on the port quarter.  Three double-bed passenger compartments (with a double bed and two bunk-bed cabins for the crew) are standard for the Ospreys, though many owners juggle these accommodations according to their needs.   The Ospreys are fitted with the trademark Kieran cockpit design, providing stations for pilot, copilot/navigator, and flight engineer.     
   To augment their maneuverability, the Ospreys are fitted with a pair of pivoting reaction drive assemblies with a 220o range of motion, which also fold eighty-degrees along their X-axis to lower the ship’s center of gravity and improve on-ground stability.  In atmosphere maneuverability and stability are augmented by the twin boom tail configuration set well aft of the ship’s center of gravity. 
   Although the design (and many of the Ospreys still flying) is more than twenty years old, the design was placed back into limited production following the Unification War.
   The Ospreys have found a home in a variety of industries- both legal and illegal.  At least one privateer, known as the Sutter’s Pride, has replaced the centerline shuttle berth with a trainable missile battery, mounted a magnetic grappler in place of the “bomb-bay” hatch and an automatic gauss-gun in a chin turret under the cockpit.

If Haloriel has already started on a medic, I can withdraw my medic suggestion and go with either captain or pilot. Pretty, is there a storyline planned, or will this be more of a sandbox game?

Reiji, Endie, Star.  Between the lot of you, I HAVE to know which of you is playing the Captain, that way there's no arguing over things.  So if you three could get together and pick one of you, I would greatly appreciate it.  Then after that, yeah.  Also, don't forget that we do still need a mechanic.  Otherwise this boat's gonna fall right outta the sky.

To Endy and Star: I was only interested in the Captain's chair for two reasons - having a major vote in deciding what ship we were going to fly, and also what sort of pre-game upgrades we would make to it.  Seeing as how one has already been decided, if anyone has any less mercenary designs for the ship, I'll withdraw my candidacy for it.

Also, if I'm not Captain, but First Officer, I'll probably mix up my skill arrangement a bit more, especially depending on the power level of the campaign.

Pretty in Pink

Malcolm Reynolds & Inara Serra - Married with three children.  Inara is retired from being a companion, helping Malcolm run Serenity Shipping out of Serenity Valley.

Jayne Cobb - Now runs the Mines of Canton as Overseer.

Simon Tamm & Kaylee Frye - Happily married, no children, though Kaylee has one on the way.  Simon has a successful medical practice running on Ariel.

Zoe Alleyne - After Wash's death and the success of the mission to broadwave the data they found on Miranda, Zoe dropped off the grid, and hasn't been seen since.

River Tamm - Now arguably sane, though she still has her breaks.  However, Simon has managed to get her the help she needs, and for the most part, she is back to what she was before the 'experiments'.

Still waiting on Shiny and Drez to respond back.  Endie, go ahead and decide on Pilot or Weapons Tech, or roll off with Star for Captain, and start creating.  They have until midnight my time (4 hours roughly) before I drop them.  I MAY give an extension, but it looks like you're in.

PiP?  I had a look at Shiny & Drez' stats...Shiny's probably not gonna respond until sometime tomorrow afternoon (assuming anyone does reply on T-Giving), and Drez is probably not gonna reply until about midnight-2AM E time, meaning...actually, that is within 4 hours from now.

Pretty in Pink

That's true.  Keep forgetting about tomorrow being Turkey Day.  I'll give them until Sunday morning, 12:01 AM my time.  That gives them a little over 72 hours.

Alright, I didn't see the avalanche of posts coming. ^^

Off the top of my head, I'd like to be a mechanic and if nobody else wants to be it, the flight engineer.
(gotta polish up on my techno babble). Also, I cast my vote for Freeform .
Basic character sheet is going to be filled out over the course of this day (,hopefully).
First idea would be your typical grease monkey who had an unfortunate accident...aaand got one of his hands/arms replaced with a (chrome-plated) prosthesis, both a memento of this tragic event and his undying love for any machine ever created....to be continued or scraped ;).

Starlequin

Name: Gabriel Whitney

Age: 32

Special Skills: Has a good head for logistics and negotiations, long list of friends and contacts in both high and low places

Job on Ship: Captain

Appearance:

Brief History/Personality: Gabriel doesn't talk about his past much, leading most people to think he's carrying some deep secret or hiding a tragic, scarred heart or some other nonsense. But the truth is far simpler: he doubts anyone would care, because it's pretty damn boring. Born April 13, 2506 on Beaumonde to a father that supported Unification and a mother that didn't, Gabriel heard some pretty interesting debates during his childhood. With their mother's encouragement, Gabriel's older brother Lawson sided with the Independents, but after his death during the Siege of Du-Khang, her grief was too much to bear. Afterward, Gabriel's father raised the boy alone.

In the back of his mind, Gabriel blamed the Alliance for the deaths of both his brother and mother, but his father held steadfast to his federal faith. So it only came as a surprise to one of them when Alliance forces seized his father's shipyard and levelled charges of embezzlement and fraud against him. Gabriel's father managed to prove his innocence, but his reputation was completely ruined, and he quickly followed his wife's example. For a while, Gabriel raged against the Alliance to anyone who would listen, but soon realized the hard truth: he had no hope of fighting the Alliance. All he could do was get the hell out from under it.

Gabe has spent the last three years working and crewing on a few different freighters both legal and otherwise, and has finally saved enough to pick up a ship of his own. The Desolate Hope is his chance at freedom, and he's determined to make the best of it. Now if he can just find a good crew...

Other Facts: Gabriel has no love for the Alliance, but he doesn't hate it, either. To him, it's just a big, lifeless machine that does whatever it's programmed to, and the best thing to do is just stay out of its way. That being said...he usually won't pass up an opportunity to throw a wrench in its gears, if the chance comes his way. He's not really much for combat, but he's an excellent planner, he can usually hit what he aims at, and he's not afraid to fight dirty.

Looks like there is a lot of demand for the position of captain, so since it looks like Star has that locked down, I'd be interested in doing a combo pilot/weapon tech, if you think thats reasonable.  If we have someone who wants to be THE pilot, I'd settle for co-pilot-ish and weapons tech.

I don't have any of the materials for the game so I don't know what options there are if we go system, I just like system games, especially since I haven't done one in so long. 

PiP: send me a message on AIM if you have the opportunity, so I can ask ye questions for a spell.

Pretty in Pink

I'm perfectly fine with you doing that.  Like I said, MOST combinations I'm fine with.  Others I want to approve first, and one at least is an outright no, no questions asked.

Name: Dr. Arabella Jiang

Age: 29

Special Skills: Has specialisation as a Medical Doctor, and Psychiatrist.

Job on ship: Medical

Appearance: Arabella is tall, standing about six centimetres below 1.8 metres ( around 5’10”).  She has very straight black hair that is almost always in a very neat bun that when loose falls to her lean hips.  She has an elegant face and form, and seldom smiles.  Dr. Jiang tends to dress in trousers, long sleeved shirts and boots that are both stylish and functional, though cleans up as well as any Companion might - minus the dubious job description.  Her eyes are a very dark brown, nearly black.

Brief History/Personality: Born to the wealthy Jiang family on Persephone in the capital, she followed her father into the medical field, while her mother is a noble socialite whom can trace her family back generations - a rarity indeed, a diamond of the first water.  The real wonder was why Dr. Jiang's mother - Barbara Chamberlain - married into her father's new money family, with their penchant for service and philanthropy.  A cool and collected sort of woman, next to nothing seems to ruffle her with the exception of idiots.  She has a detachment that is almost eerie to watch, and when riled, has a sharp tongue that borders on the cynical.

Other facts: Can use small firearms, and is independently wealthy.  She has no qualms at all with the Alliance, and once supported everything they did.  She refuses to speak about why she changed her tune - though only a local of Persephone might have any inkling as to why.  Dr. Jiang has a secret adoration for fine cigar smoke, though doesn't partake herself.  She has a weakness for plain, ordinary wild flowers, proper tea, and those dark eyes of hers probably hold a half dozen secrets, not the least of which are the dragon tattoo on her back - and the fact that she can drink a man under the table with ease.

Name: Byron Matthews

Age: 42

Special Skills: Computer programming, encryption / decryption, software engineering, hacking, Pleasure-bot programming, Alliance computer system specs.

Job on Ship: Computer Specialist

Appearance:

Brief History/Personality: Byron was the type of child who when the other kids were playing outside, he was eagerly sifting through lines of code. He didn't have many friends growing up except for those that he knew through various message boards and chatrooms. He graduated from school early and was immediately recruited by the alliance to work as a systems analyst. The work agreed with him, and Byron made a good living decrypting illegal transmissions and identifying erroneous data within the cortex. It was during this time that he was assigned work to try and locate Mr. Universe, a rogue broadcaster he seemed to be able to insert his own code into alliance transmissions almost at will.

It was while working on this project and sifting through all of Mr. Universes previous data uploads that byron began to actually pay attention to what the rogue hacker was saying. At first he couldn't believe it was true. There was no way the Alliance were the bad guys. Then, the Miranda transmission happened. Pursuing his due dilligence, Byron attempted to decode classified Alliance documents to prove the transmission a hoax, but was terrified when he discovered that every word of it was true! Byron dedicated the next decade of his work with the Alliance to secretly disperse top secret data and intelligence to freedom fighters and those who wanted to spread the truth about the Alliance, all while working his way up to become one of the top systems analysts in the cortex.

However, someone was watching. Despite how well he had covered his tracks the authorities became aware of what he was doing. Byron expected to simply be arrested and spend the rest of his life in a white collar prison somewhere in the central planets system. However when his home was BLOWN UP by Alliance soldiers and he barely managed to escape with his life, he realized that if he was caught, he would never see the inside of a jail. He simply knew too much. Byron erased as much evidence of his existence as he quickly could from the cortex computers and fled to the rim. He hoped to find work with some of the illegal smugglers out there who would hopefully not ask too many questions about why he knew so much about the alliance computer networks.

Other Facts: Still a virgin! (unless you count pleasure-bots and sims, which most people don't), on the short side, kind of stout. Has a minor addiction to anti-anxiety medication he has developed since being on the run these past few years, feels more comfortable holding a conversation via terminal than face to face, gets nervous and tongue tied around attractive women.

#59
Name: Sinohay Nystka

Age: 40

Special Skills: Trained as a Border Companion (no longer registered, black marked in registry - note her skills are not up to core standards in some areas), General Business, Criminal Training  [bribery, forgery, bypass security systems, burglary], Unarmed Combat, Small Arms, First Aid, Lovebot Robotics Engineering/Programming (can put them together and program, not design structures), Access to Credit Line, Connected in the Underworld and Elite Worlds.

Job on Ship: Troubleshooter (makes and sells top of the line Lovebots to order, twice the listed price)

Appearance:

Tends to dress for the occassion from casual to formal to trampy but oozes class, she was still a Companion when young and never lost her touch.

Brief History/Personality: The eldest daughter of the crime boss Niska she went to the border Companion Training Temple and worked as a Companion for a few years before she had a falling out and went into the family business. In fact she learned alot and became a valued member of the Niska family using her social skills and Companion training to full effect adding in many other skills. Her major source of income is the only Lovebot Company in the Verse' her family runs she has investments in it and helped program and design the everymans companion in fact over the decade she helped advance them to ideal sexual companions. This really ticked off The Guild and she got blackmarked for life but who cares she has a nice line of credit and enjoys the security of investments from it. But she does travel around she likes working and helping the Niska family, her Dada is considering her to replace him.

Overall regarding personality she is charming and pleasant but inside is a Niska she has no trouble doing what she has to and has her fathers ruthless streak, generally if she has a known enemy she has no issues making an example. For example her brother tried to kill her she tortured his wife in front of him then doped her selling her to a whorehouse on the fringe then killing him. His son was given over to her father to raise well she couldn't kill his grandchild and he was very young. But she has her own code of honor you are "Solid" with her and don't hurt her family your good with her and all. Is happy to be in the Lovebot business besides the company ones she can make special models for select clients which is a nice line of income plus she gets to stick it to The Guild.

Other Facts: Has an Identicard and does work for Alliance Intelligence if its not hurting her business, this is noted on her card under the high security files but it has a standard - she is a important asset if your reading this and can't access the special record file she is more important to us than YOU are. Had anti-aging treatments that slows her aging she will age at a farl slower rate the Alliance and this cost her a few Alliance favors usually wetwork jobs on certain targets they had trouble getting to.

drezdock

Hey-hey! A love bot designer! I think byron is gonna have a new best friend!... and be in debt before the jobs start coming...  :P

RubySlippers

She learned that on-the-job who better to program them than a former Companion but there are the assembly line models and her designs, but lets say its been twenty years since the show the tech had to improve. Likely for the same credits you get a better bot.

Oh and the ageing treatment was hinted at in the unaired episode Heart of Gold where her friend said Inara didn't look a day older from when they knew wach other. But come on having an Alliance friendly operative hiding on board could be fun if the Independents start up again. :)

Starlequin

It could be fun, yeah. But probably not for her, if Gabe catches wind of her leanings, lol.  >:)
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got.

Pretty in Pink

And now I get to be a dick.  *sigh*  I had hoped it wouldn't happen.  That is WAY too many skills.  Companions spend their WHOLE LIFE training in what they do.  With that training, she wouldn't have had ANY time to develop HALF those skills, let alone all of them.  Either that, or dump the Companion part completely.  There's no point if you only have a few years and can't use it.

ALSO.  Please do keep in mind, use of the name Niska is pretty much a death sentence in most of the known 'verse.  Either don't use your real name, or change her to not be Niska's daughter.

Sorry to be such an ass, but certain things have to be set in stone.  Technically, Byron's pushing it, but as they ALL lie in the same realm of general skill, he's fine.

RubySlippers

BORDER Companion if you saw the movie it was a few years of the basics compared to a proper companion, more the social side and a few artistic skills plus getting connections and using her charms there is a precedent in the series to one such agent - she married Mal hee hee hee. I made her Lovebot thing the mechanics not design she can put one together and program one but is not a designer. And honed down her fighting. Her rogue skills are being more temptered think of her as a decent criminal due to her background.

And didn't you read her name its Nyska not that one, ahem.  >:)  (okay it is but who would be the wiser she is a respectable businesswoman and handles some tasks for the ship, who had a falling out with The Guild)

Haloriel

I think the point here is that PiP is the GM, and she's saying to change stuff?  Rather than debating the movie, perhaps its simply about how she wants to run her game.  :D

RubySlippers

I just noted there are the central planet Companions that spent years in training and the ones on the Border who started much older, as in the one Inara was a teacher in. She was the latter therefore was given a far more bare bones education by far.

#67

Name: Harold Jian Shing Black

Age: 28

Appearance:
Harold is about 1.65 m (5'5") tall. He is of sturdy stature,
remedying his lack of height with his broad shoulders and relative fitness. In looks he takes after his father.
Harold's left hand is a prosthesis, its artificial nature is only apparent at closer examination as the cover doesn't quite match his skin color or when he removes said cover to "get in those hard to reach places apparently made by some Jwei Gai Won Se under the assumption that an army of highly skilled rodents stands by to repair the ship, graargh!"

Harold prefers to wear his often mended and heavily stained brown overall at most occasions. He owns other clothes, though. (Usually stores them in the hamper.)


Special Skills: Hunting, farming, very basic veterinary and human medicine, space vessel maintenance and modification (mechanics, electronics, software), ambidextrous.

Job on Ship: Mechanic/Flight Engineer

Brief History/Personality: Being the youngest son, born third to Liang Lei Black and Jonathan Ulysses Black, Harold struggled to keep up with his significantly older brothers.
It wasn't made easier by the fact that they lived far off the beaten track in a farming community on Whitefall, only visiting the next outpost of civilization to trade farmed goods for needed supplies.
Harold never quite understood why his parents chose to live there. The clearest answer he got was:
"The core is so very rotten, no way for a kid to grows up there properly. Be happy you gets to livin' in the juicy pulp. Now, sleep tight."
He took this advice to heart, trying to soak up as much of knowledge as he could to make his father proud, since Harold never stood a chance to compete with his brothers physically.
And that could have been it, if it had not been for her on one of their visits to the outpost. She wasn't overly pretty, and her best days were long gone, but - she sure could sing.
Granted, to everyone but Harold it sounded like the almost painful roar of completely oversized thrusters. To him, it was an angel choir.
Harold immediately fell in love. The mechanic of this beauty called Esmeralda saw the starry-eyed boy and gave Harold a tour.
Afterward Harold still fulfilled his duties on the farm, yet it became more and more apparent to his parents that his heart wasn't in it anymore. Quite often, they found him reading or scribbling some obscure formula on some smart paper. Other times, he took apart perfectly fine farm machinery, only to reassemble it. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't.
As Harold grew older this lead to various falling-outs. After one particularly severe, Harold left the farm.
Finally, he was able to give in to his passion, fortunately not having to search for long for someone to take him on as an apprentice.
It was during those years, Harold lost his left hand. Or as he says:
"If you don't respect the tigress, she will bite your hand clean off."
Since he was a lefty that proved to be a disadvantage, even though the ship's medic was quick on his feet and saved enough nerve tissue to support a cybernetic hand. Remarkably Harold managed to turn this predicament around: He learned to use his right hand just as well and, after meddling with the internal programming of his prosthesis, now had quite a versatile tool.
Nothing extreme, it's just more flexible than a natural hand. His favorite party trick is making a fist the other way around :P
As of now, he worked on numerous ships and generally works for everybody who owns a ship and is willing to hire him.



Other Facts:  Harold usually develops a close relationship toward a vessel, treating it like a person. He comes across a bit weird that way, but he is well-mannered and treats every person with respect (as long as they don't fiddle with the ship). He has basic knowledge of politics, but doesn't really concern himself with it.

Ruby:  Kay.  Saying it once more.  Skill set is WAY too expansive, and overlaps with too many other crew members.  Thin it down, please.  I'm trying to be nice about this, but I really want this game to flow, and if there's one character doing everything, then it might as well just be a one-on-one instead of a group game.  And I'm not the type of GM to do that sort of thing.
Also, when I first looked at it?  It DID say Niska.  Just so you know.

No, no, the comment about him having very basic veterinary and human medicine.  Probably means he can do quick first aid.  Anything more than bandages, that's the Doc's job.

Alright , I was worried there. ^^
I'll rename it to "First aid (veterinary and human)"
What it incorporates is splints, bandages, and no drugs much more exotic than aspirin. On the veterinary side, midwifery, common diseases and such.
The overall denominator is "stuff picked up on a farm and actions to take when no medical assistance or supplies are around".

QuoteMirralee "Lee" Sandoval

Age: 24

Height: 152.4 cm (5'7")
Weight: 58.1 kg (~128 lbs)

Physical Description: 
Lee is an attractive woman of Indian descent.  She is fit and has an outward confidence.  Her straight black hair is usually worn in a pony tail and her dark eyes seem to take in everything.  She will generally dress in grey or brown pants, a tank top or a fitted long sleeve shirt and a pair of sturdy boots.  Mirralee will always have a sidearm and if on a mission she will likely carry a jian as well as an assorment of firearms.



Short Bio:
Born on one of the outter worlds, which one she does't rightly remember, Mirralee was orphaned at the age of 8.  Years later she would learn that her parents had joined the resistance and were killed when an alliance cruiser opened up on their small freighter.  After her parents death, she was taken in by her aging uncle, a smuggler and gun runner.  She lived and grew up aboard his ship, The Devil's Tale.  Early on she learned the ins and outs of flying from the wayward old man, but it wasn't until Jarick came aboard that she truly came to life.  Lee was 14 when Jarick joined the ragtag crew.

Jarick was a mercenary, plan and simple, but to Lee he was a god and she followed him around like a puppy.  He didn't take kindly to the girl following him about initially, but eventually he learned to accept it and put her to work.  The crew would whisper about the uses a man like Jarick would have for a young girl in his cabin as Jarick taught her to field strip and clean a weapon.  They would cast accusing glances when the pair returned from two days of range practice planetside.  All in all there were many suspicions about the their relationship, but nothing to substantiate any claims of inproprietey.  In the five years Jarick spent with the crew of the Devils' Tale, he gave Mirralee a thorough education in firearms, basic explosives, simple tracking and even sword fighting.  The last time Lee saw her mentor he was being placed under arrest by the Feds on Bellerophon, she never learned the charges and has not heard from him since.

Lee left her Uncle's ship at 22 and has since attempted to hire herself out as a weapons specialist.  As it turns out, folk generally laugh in the face of a young woman who wants to be paid for her martial skills, so she has fallen back on her piloting knowlegde to make ends meet.  She has had a fair string of luck at that and has recently hired on with the Desolate Hope.

Personality
Mirralee keeps to herself most of the time.  She hasn't spent a lot of time learning about people, preferring instead to learn about ways to kill them.  Conversations with her are generally a little strained, but if you get to know her she can be friendly, even a little silly sometimes.  There is an innocence hidden deep within her.  On a bad day or in a stressful situation she will often clam up.  She can be impulssive, but in combat she is decisive and competant. At the end of the day, her isolation makes her feel lonely, but she has had enough family torn away from her that she has a hard time believing that anyone will be around for very long.

Approved, Endiemyon.

Writing up a character sheet naow!

Name: Jenavie 'Jin' Fenton

Age: 28

Height: 5'9
Weight: 140lbs
Picture:

Brief History: She was born, she grew, the companion's guild became her life. She was one of the smoothest, caring, and loving companions there is. She was also a diligent worker. For a long time, Jin did nothing but work and have fun, amassing money and just generally enjoying life. When she was nineteen, she fell in love, and as all relationships with companions go... it exploded. It exploded spectacularly, even. Shortly after that, she had become a bit bitter. She began to gamble, and lose, especially due to her bad luck. Thankfully her gifted tongue and mastery of languages had been there to bail her out. So she started moving... a lot. It was always the same story, really. She would settle down, she'd get unhappy, the gambling, stealing, and cheating would start. Then she would eventually lose, and escape into a crowd, disappearing in it. So, she decided to join a crew, and spend a lot less time around these types of situations while she tried to figure out why she can't get over her 'one true love', and why she did the things she did. So, after her yearly check up on Ariel, she spread the word, and was pointed to the Desolate Hope.

Personality: She's prideful, bitter, cunning, coy, and smooth. All at once. Her words flow like silk when they need to calm, and stab like daggers when she needs to incite anger. She's amazing at pretending to be other people, and even better at disappearing into crowds of people. Jin can get into anywhere, whether it be with her silver tongue or her dexterous fingers.

Skills: Martial Arts, Music, Languages, Pickpocketing/Stealing, Losing money, Sex.
Position: Registered Companion

Other Facts:
-Jin likes to be dressed well a lot of the time, except in absolute private.
-Jin loves and hates the guild, as she blames it on ruining her one relationship and making others impossible.
-She likes to drink. A lot.
-Has nightmares.
-Secretly loves romance, but will openly down - play its significance.
-Secretly not as bad as she seems.
-Honest to a fault with friends.
-Dishonest to a fault with marks.
-She needs glasses to read.
-Loves gambling/cards/bets.
-Has extremely bad luck.
-Cheats at cards/gambling.
-One of the most talented pickpocket/thieves(Hasn't been caught yet!)
-Enjoys art, origami, and beautiful things.

Name: John Lawhorn
Age: 44
Height & Weight: 5'9" & 155 lbs
Picture: http://chriseccleston.com/wp-content/uploads/eccles.png

Brief History: Born on Shadow, Lawhorn was barely a teenager when the Unification War broke out.  All he wanted to do was join up and fight for the right for people to choose their own path in life.  And he managed to do it...just in time for him to be deployed to Hera, for the Battle of Serenity Valley.  In the grand scheme of of the war, Lawhorn was a soldier for all of about fifteen minutes...but he remembers the sacrifices made by the sons of the families that lived near him, how Shadow was destroyed by Alliance bombing, and the men next to him that died in the name of freedom.  After the war ended, Lawhorn went home...but nothing lived on Shadow anymore, and his family had moved elsewhere. Heading back to Hera, Lawhorn offered up his skills as a soldier to anyone that would hire him.

It's been over twenty-five years since he started traveling the 'Verse, and he's seen a lot of ships and a lot of jobs come and go.  The raw skills he had as a young Browncoat have been honed, and his mind filled with stories and experiences that make him one of the most veteran hands of the 'Verse.  He's claimed that he's probably forgotten more about the ways of the world than most people have ever learned.

But Lawhorn remembers his people.  Always.

Personality: Now in his mid-40s, having seen the Unification War (and its loss for the people he knew and cared for), as well as over two decades of Alliance rule, Lawhorn is a very tired and wearied individual.  He approaches almost everything with at least a trace amount of cynicism, having learned to expect the worst from any and everyone unless there's something in it for them.

Skills: Military training, honed by 2 decades of experience.  Extensive familiarity with the 'Verse and its ways.  (He's been traveling for 20 years, after all)

Position: First Officer

Other Facts:
- He was a Pathfinder as a Browncoat, receiving training as a scout and tracker in addition to his basic military skills.


ReijiTabibito

I liked Eccleston over Tennant, though Tennant is a favorite, mainly because Eccleston was a different kind of Doctor to me.  It wasn't all about him and how awesome he was and how he was going to save the day this time, which was definitely more Tennant and now Smith.  Eccleston's Doctor was much more an enabler, someone that inspired regular people to heroics (like Captain Jack!).
