BTW: I edited my "Propositions for shared backstory" but want you guys to tell me what you think... cause I got LOT of liberties:

They are not quite conscious of it, but Fixer and Loinen have met before: the droid was on board during the pirate attack that costed him his freedom, but was hided by security units instants before the assault, allowing the ship to return safely once abandoned by the corsairs. Viik and Grobul were "smuggled" alongside Fixer several years before, by noneless than Marduk "the man" himself, who also had had businesses with Loinen. In fact, during that travel, Loinen was outsourcing Marduk to get the droid, the cook and the Twi'lek to the outer rim. After a few "Imperial encounters" the passengers were forced to help Marduk and his shiny new pilot, Mussuka, to jump out of the pan. That, and the amazing discovery of Grobul's state-of-the-art corellian pancake recipe, ended up by deciding the fact that they could easily work together. And that's what has been happening, while no one takes droid oil as if it was endorian sirup.

I have a Mandalorian bounty hunter in mind if that can fit.

@Sleater So the idea is that Fixer's met everyone before, right? It's a interesting idea, him (it?) being the one thing everyone had in common before they actually banded together. Though we would have to watch a bit for inconsistencies. With a bit of tweaking I wouldn't mind it too terribly, however it's not solely up to me. If the others agree them i'm down.

@POOHEAD189 Seeing as someone prior to you submitted a CS for the bounty hunter role it may very well come down to who can make the more interesting character, unless of course frapet is willing to have more than one hunter in the rp. It'd add an extra bit of difficultly for the crew, which is good for the sake of the role play in my opinion. I'm thinking this could go one of three ways if frapet accepts two bounty hunters: the first being that they two bounty hunters operate as separate entities entirely, the second is that they're willing to work together and split the profit, and the third is that they're competitors who aren't above doing something underhanded to ensure the other guy doesn't get the pay day before they do. Whichever way this goes it'll add a bit of pressure that helps us to avoid the monotonous rut that space opera types like this can get into.

I like the third option, but then again it is up to the GM and am willing to go either way@MonsieurShade

The idea is that we all met more or less at the same time, while travelling to the Outer Rim. The droid isn't really the junction point. The Smugglers fill those roles better, I think

@POOHEAD189 You could join as a bounty hunter, but take up contact with @Rawk since he is the already accepted one.

Here's the long and short of my character's profession, just to give some perspective:

The short answer: He's a "bounty hunter" by contractual obligation only.

The long answer: Since he came from an Imperial Intelligence Agent/Special Ops background, he generally despises Bounty Hunters (and Mandalorians) as being careless and dishonorable, but this of course is his own personal opinion and not at all fact.

So having @POOHEAD189 as a "competing" Mandalorian BH would be interesting since my character would see him as more of a brutish, thoughtless killer than a professional of anything. Our motives, skill set, fighting styles, tactics, etc will be different as well.

Of course your characters won't know any of this, but figured I would give a bit of insight nonetheless :)
