The xenophobia will just make things more interesting, especially with the reputation of the alien species I have selected.

@Skwint hey man -- just read Pench's character sheet, and I'm not 100%. I've seen you do character sheets before, and there has been some good meat there. This one seems lacking. As for the character, I'm worried it just doesn't seem like there's more to him than just being 'muscle.' I'd like a fully-formed, (with some of those things being flaws, of course!) multi-faceted character for this group. Want to take another crack at it?

Not really.

ok, sorry man.

I'm still interested, I'm just slow, I work overnights. Just started so still getting my routine and schedule sorted out and such but I am off for the next three days so I am gonna dev something up before you guys get too far in!

Hey folks -- we're getting to a stage with interest voiced and implied, that I think potential characters should be posted here in the OOC for discussion rather than blind approval. I kind of want the right mix, and space is down to one or two more, tops.

Please and thanks.

How would you feel about a Gurlanin bounty hunter? Perhaps one with a life debt of some sorts to the captain to explain the continued presence of a Gurlanin?

On second thought I'm thinking a Clawdite would be better.

Hey @TaintedMushroom, what do I think? (Bear in mind, this is just my own opinion, I have not discussed this with the other two current crewmembers, and I welcome their input!) I think Bounty Hunting is a very personal, private endeavour. I can't really picture a time when a Bounty Hunter wouldn't just have their own ship for their purposes, rather than relying on the diplomacy of people they would seemingly have to agree with or answer to.

Now -- in the rare case when a Bounty Hunter might ned to blend in, to get closer to a Mark? Sure. Hire a smuggling vessel. Or if an ex-Bounty Hunter wanted to go 'straight?' Maybe a crew would be an easy way to leave behind such a vigilante lifestyle.

I don't generally think that A Bounty Hunter would agree, or have an entire crew's best interests in mind when taking on jobs. It would also mean that a Hunter would have to share their take with others, which seems unlikely.

Now, as a "guest spot?" Or as a recurring rival to jobs? Absolutely. And the shape-changing races? I have no issues with. But that's my $.02.

I have to with @deegee on this one, I feel like a Bounty Hunter is a very different path to the one we're on. Maybe an Ex-Bounty Hunter that wants an easier go of things but the skills might not be very useful for the crew?

Hello and good day to you all! I go by "Zane", and I am interested in writing with you guys.

To give a little background, I used to write with DeeGee over on the website JediVsSith. I've had many years of experience on and off writing with a multitude of incredibly-talented people (of which, DeeGee is very much included). I've seen what you guys have written so far, and I'd like to throw my lot in, if at all possible. So, without further ado, I'll get into the "meat and potatoes" of what sort of character I'm keen on writing.

Since you guys are traveling to Lotho Minor in order to pull off this job and are likely to be touching down on the planet proper, I was hoping I could write a character who was an orphaned individual with a younger brother that he had been forced to care for after his parents died in a salvaging accident here. This character has been on his own, caring for his brother as best as he could by trying to take over his mother and father's workload as a Junker for the better part of three years. The Junker society had pity on him starting out, and that gave him a bit of grace with them for a while, but with him being so young and inexperienced (he began working for them when he was just barely fifteen), he often failed and could never quite grasp the subtle intricacies of junking and salvaging. This has led to him being more of a nuisance in the eyes of a lot of the Junker society, and slowly but surely over these past three years, he has lost yet another job in the line of many. At the point that you all would see him, he will be very nearly destitute, panicking over how exactly he's supposed to take care of himself and his younger brother now that he's without a job yet again.

What I would like to do is have him observe your crew coming into Lotho Minor's spaceport (or rather, whatever passes for a "spaceport" on this junkyard of a planet) - that, or, wherever you guys are going to be looking to touch down. Despite his poor luck at being a Junker, this kid is still somewhat resourceful and observant, and for the most part he'd be invisible as a street urchin there in Junktown (or whatever y'all would want to call this particular settlement). As such, he could possibly see you guys getting off the ship in your Stormtrooper getups, or overhear you still talking about trying to pull off the job, or possibly seeing Aellyn being the only one without a Stormtrooper getup. This would lead to him starting to put the small pieces of what's being said and done together, and eventually he'd have enough to go on that he might be able to put you guys in a bit of a vice should things not go his way. His hair-brained scheme is going to be to blackmail some creds out of you. This can start to play out however you would like. But, if it slips out that you guys still don't have an officer's uniform for Aellyn, I could make it his shoddy play that he could get such a uniform for you from the local Imperial barracks without a lot of attention.

Any which way, the character type I'm going for is a kid that's green as far as the lifestyle of being a smuggler. If he's able to convince you guys that he can be useful, you'd take him on and show him the ropes. I had this notion of him looking kind of tall and gangly, like Jay Baruchel, and being otherwise un-noteworthy. His skillset is definitely going to be limited, but that also leaves him wide open to being molded into the type of character that would be useful on a smuggling crew.

If this seems like something that you guys might be interested in allowing, I can start to write up his character sheet as soon as @DeeGee gives the word. Thanks for taking the time to read my post, and I look forward to hearing your input!

Dropping a message to say I'm very much interested in all of this, and plan on putting together a sheet. Please let me know if there's no longer enough room!

Hi guys!

Another one of deegee's old crew trickling in, here. <3 Just saying hi for now, I'm loving all the posts, it's been a long time since I read anything that excited me so. Looking forward to joining you guys next time a spot opens up! Working on a CS here and there. Meantime, just here to be the cheerleader and enjoy the story. ^_^

Oh Glitter Guppy... where are you? And are you really going to join us? ...a guy can hope.

i watch this thread, and accidentally made a comment here meant for another thread.

Weird question: Would it be possible to play an Imperial who's chasing the gang? Not necessarily an evil bastard, just the old "Law is the law and the Emperor is the guy signing the cheques. I mean, I'm happy to lose all the time, I just kinda have a hankering for that kind of character.

I was thinking something along the same lines. Minus the losing.
