Hmm, I did not except to see any new CS's without actually putting up another interest check. At any rate, I am open to accepting new characters, we just have to work them into the team at an appropriate time. I will say that, at the current point in the story, I do not think we can logically work in freelancers. To make it immensely easier on me, I would recommend having your character be a part of one of the governments, like the UN, or the Assembly itself.

Also, as a side note, it is actually a misconception that an asteroid field would be dense enough to be dangerous. They are actually rather sparse.
