We already have our chef. And, um, sorry, forgot about the bio here I'll handle it soon. ^^;

Too right, I think my brain might have been melted by the adorable slime girl. I guess an interceptor/fighter/transport pilot would be cool too.

We do need a pilot.

Here's my shot. Let me know if you want/think something needs changing.

If accepted I'll do my best to get a post in the IC this time tomorrow so as not to hold things up.

Thanks.

Name: Edward McKenzie (Nicknames include Ed, Eddie, Ted, McKenzie and, very rarely, Teddie)
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Appearance: Link
Personality: Very assured in his abilities, confident but not overly boastful. He gets frustrated when others appear to fail at what they're supposed to be good at. He is happy to engage in conversation with the other crewmates but is distrustful at the same time. After all, everyone is a pirate and pirates are not to be trusted. Has become more laid-back after the addition of a dedicated navigator, "Red", taking some of the mental weight from him and allowing Ted to focus more on the piloting of the spaceship-that-has-no-name. Though this has lead to a lapse into a bit of a drinking tendancy and whenever things get too dull or repetitive on board the ship, Ted will happily explore the local night-life when the ship docks at a space system.
Skills: Piloting (of course). Going at speed and taking evasive manoeuvres are things learned from an early age and practised throughout his life. Having roamed space for a number of years, Ted is familiar with popular pirate locations for trading stolen goods, getting inside information and also laying low when required. Ted is also good with numbers, though the opportunity to put this to use has decreased somewhat after Kin, the Quartermaster, joined the ship. It is now mostly put to the important issue of ensuring he gets his fair share of any exploits. In addition, while not so much a skill as a sixth sense, he often knows when it's time to back out of a mission and make a swift getaway.
Equipment: Fairly minimal. A portable computer allowing him to connect with the outside world is his prized possession. He also has a collection of handguns from the time humans lived solely on Earth (some work, others are for show). Ted prefers to leave the fighting to others; he knows the best place for him to be is aboard the ship, ready to make a fast exit if things go south.
Brief Backstory: One of the original members of the crew, Ted was there to witness Iwakawa Yuriko winning the current spaceship (though he has disclosed the exact details to no-one so far). Having been an avid admirer of the ship himself, he imediately offered his services to the new captain to pilot the ship. After all, she was barely old enough to drive a land-based vehicle, let alone a spaceship! After some careful consideration he was accepted to the crew.
Up until that point Ted had been a reliable getaway pilot for other pirate ships in nearby space systems, spending a couple of years with a ship before moving on to the next. Any job that paid well and filled the adrenaline rush of going at high speed was his first choice.
In his youth Ted had been a promising racing talent, first on land and then in space. However the allure of money proved too great and he got involved with various illegal race-fixing incidents. Eventually caught and disqualified from racing anywhere near his local space system, Ted left to get involved with space piracy, using some of his shady connections at the time, knowing that an ordinary day-job would just not cut it for him.
What keeps him with the current crew is the ship, mainly, but also the surprisingly good payouts for a relatively new band of pirates, lead by a comparitively inexperienced captain.
Position in Crew: Pilot

Opsie, that double post though...

Looks good to me, accepted.

well there goes the pilot slot. I guess maybe a weapons operator for the ship might be useful.

Name: Clint Redeemer
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Appearance:

'Now that's what I like, a gun you can sit the whole crew inside of.'

---

Personality:
Even giving his best effort to the contrary, Clint still puts off an aura of cold calculation. This is largely due to the fact that he puts his effort towards firing weapons with the intent to possibly destroy a ship carrying dozens or hundreds of lives. This fact doesn't bother him and although he doesn't do it with glee, he does it well.

Despite outward inpressions, Clint really does try his best to be personal. H'll carry on his own side of the conversation enthusiastically but when the focus drifts away again his smile fades and his gaze starts to wander. At all times his gaze retains the look of a predator watching a piece of prey that it doesn't quite want to expend the effort to kill.

Because of his past, he will do whatever it takes to protect a female ally.

---

Skills:
Clint is a weapons operator. Cannons, beams and missiles are all used with precision to deal precise damage to an opposing ship to disable it for boarding or destroy it outright. He has a bit of a head for tactics as far as a general idea goes but mostly applies it to finding where to apply his firepower.

Other than his gunnery skills Clint enjoys taking pictures of anything that catches his interest.

---

Equipment:
Clints only personal possession is his camera, used to document his travels in the unlikely event that he meets up with his sister again.

---

Brief Backstory:
Clint has a sister although she is several years older and hasn't been heard from in almost a decade. He signed aboard in the hopes that he might some day come across some sign of her in his travels. To date he is still hopeful but has not found a single trace. Clint is apprehensive about seeing her again and is unsure about what she will think of his life as a pirate.
