Name: Tik-Tik, a nickname bestowed on her because of the sounds she makes when she engages in locomotion ("walking" feels like too mundane a word here). Real name is unpronounceable to people with mouths.

Appearance: The shortest way to describe Tik-Tik would be to say that she is a humongous spider, roughly the size of a cow, but with a much wider leg-span and not quite as heavy. Her low-slung body is situated in the midst of eight long, thin limbs that rise up around her, bending down at the knee and tapering off into a sharp point (hence the clacking 'tik-tik' noise when moving). Her abdomen contains a specialized organ, of which the upward-facing orifice is surrounded by vile teeth, that she can open to release foul-smelling fumes and a green goo that can be used to incapacitate pesky enemies, create a web, or just to cover everything in slime. Tik-Tik's, err, 'face' (of sorts) is covered with eight red eyes that gleam in the dark and are capable of peering into every spectrum of light, including things like 'ultraviolent' and 'infradead' (to nebulous purposes). There are even eyes on the knees of her limbs, allowing her to perceive things threats in all directions, or just to spy on people when they think she's not looking.



Species Name & Description: Most of the galaxy sticks to terms like Giganticus Arachnidus or Big Fucking Spider or Jesus Christ, Look At That Thing. These giant spiders have a bad reputation throughout the galaxy for their fearsome appearance and dangerous biological capacities, but they're really quite a friendly bunch. The females all have a powerful mother-instinct that wantonly applies itself to whatever group the spider associates with -- if tolerated, they will attempt to become a surrogate maternal figure that gives out sage advise and knits colorful sweaters whenever possible. They are quite handy to have around for various reasons, like being able to create large webs of sticky slime that have more tensile strength than almost any other known material in the universe, or just to scare people into not getting all up in yo bizniz. That said, having a huge spider at your back sometimes makes it difficult to defuse tense situations.

Favourite Side Dish: Tik-Tik has a voracious appetite for all things potatoborn.

Useful Skills & Abilities: Being a large spider, Tik-Tik can walk on both walls and the ceiling, use her homemade green goo for various purposes, see in the dark/underwater/all around her/through walls (depending on the material) and, if absolutely necessary, bite people or stab them with her limbs. The lack of opposable thumbs makes it difficult to operate machinery intended for more humanoid species but the two slightly smaller front limbs near her head are deceivingly dexterous.

Name: Swarm Species 5207B The Bees/The Will/Draksal the Devourer(nobody calls them this, not even The Bees)

Appearance: The average bee is a humanoid about the height of a refreshing beverage can with yellow and black striped skin, blond or black hair, bee wings and small antenna on their forehead wearing a red jacket over a black jumpsuit. Some of them might have different outfits so that they remember who has what specific information in them(bees with sciency stuff have lab coats, bees with engineering skills have little hard hats and overalls, tactics knowing bees in generals outfits etc.). Whenever The Will of the hive needs to intervene somewhere the antenna of the bees in the area glow purple and a voice can be heard from thin air, instructing, explaining etc.

Species Name & Description: The Bees are a psychically linked hive mind that evolved on a very small planetoid and as a result they represents their entire species. Like any self respecting hive-mind they were going to take over the galaxy until it turned out that everyone else was much, much bigger than them and unfortunately, unless I intervene, the bees aren't the most focused bunch .

Favorite Side Dish: Honey. What did you expect? Yes, they know its more of a condiment. No they don't think having honey on ribs is that weird. That squid faced guy is eating a brain with his, they point out. honey is banal in comparison they argue some what unsuccessfully. Can we just move on?

Useful Skills & Abilities: Individual bees are fairly expendable every bee is basically the same baring some of the specialist data carries and even then they have many of each set, as a result they are perfect for doing anything that is almost guaranteed to be lethal. A Lot more memory than the average lifeform though they have to find what bodies have the required memory or skill. Great at multitasking. The combination of these two makes them a good backup for most task and good assistants if someone has a proficiency in a skill. Sewing.

An Inspirational Quote That Sums Up The Character's Personality: "Bloody hell, another adventure?"

History: Don't fill this in, but have a think about it now. Because everyone is going to be a crew member aboard the same ship, I figured that it's probably best for everyone to come together once characters are made to agree on how they came to be on the ship.

Name: If I had a choice in the matter, my name would be Lord Captain Super Awesome Double Bacon Cheese Burger Ultra Warrior Magic Man of the Ultimate Eagle Force of Doom! But you can call me Fiddlesticks. That's what my older brother calls me. But if you value your life DO NOT ASK ME WHY I AM CALLED FIDDLESTICKS! CAPICE!?

Appearance: I'm a ripped super hero with the muscles of Thor, the brains of Ironman, and the combined awesomeness of both! I hate gym class though, I'm always picked last for sports. The kids always call me jelly belly in the locker room. I may have little bit of extra fat but beneath that extra fat hides extra glory! Oh yeah, I also have brown eyes, slightly tanned skin, black hair, and I'm not short! Maybe a little short....

Species name and description: I'm just a regular old human. Well, humanish. I do have very large pointed ears and massive eyes. My eyes are like the size of grape fruits. That's what I'm told anyway. What's a grapefruit? Most "normal" humans are like two heads taller than me. People ask me what I am all the time. I just tell em I'm Lord Captain Super Awesome..... At that point they lose interest and wonder off.

Favourite side dish: My favourite side dish to your amazing honey braised ribs are your sweet and crunchy sweet potato fries! We do get free ribs and fries on this thing right?

Useful skills and abilities: I can work your engines like a cat works a fiddle! Yeah, I admit, the Henderson Ribs space ship engine is pretty much like a simple toy compared to other engines. But you know what? I can take that baby apart then put it back together in my sleep! He he he XD!

The Meanwhile Directory


The galaxy is, in a way, it's own character, and everyone is free to add things to it. This is a collection of all the "Meanwhile!" style posts, that either provide some commentary to what's happening, explain some concept within the game, foreshadow certain events or simply add a wonderful little bit of extra flavour to help set the mood. To keep things vaguely organised, the posts will be linked to in the order they've been posted, along with a note of who wrote what.
