Well I was thinking that since Ramia is really short on resources the whole damn booster system is just going go give up on her immediately on arrival - after all she hasn't been able to repair the damn thing and it has obviously been through a lot and just because the flight system seems to be in a good condition on the outside doesn't mean that it is in a good condition from the inside.
I was planning that it would be her way of more getting around - and joining with the group - than partaking in actual combat - at least at first.
Ofcourse if the group was able to eventually fix the damn thing they'd have a working - if slightly outdated Flight Suit and a skilled pilot to go with it in case they'd end up in a bigger fight that would need bigger guns.
I was thinking that rebuilding the Guardian would be a sort of a side quest, not just for Ramia, but for the more tech savvy characters, not to mention McLoyed would probably love to have something like that in his arsenal when it's back in to full operational capability.
