Ulysses' Rest Plot Thread

[moth]

Mmk, well, um.. Yeah. At the moment, I don't have much in the way of a plot in mind. The queries I posted on the "Questions and Suggestions" thread will probably have some impact on where I take the ship, however, being as Roland really doesn't like the Terran Authorities [even less so if they are a monarchy/dictatorship].

The first order of business is to work out a crew. For the most part, he's interested in those who can operate as a sort of jack-of-trades. To apply to work on the Ulysses, its important to have a working knowledge of basic ship mechanics and how to operate in a space suit. Secondary skills such as medical training and combat skills are a bonus.

Before I even make a first post aboard the ship, however, I need a first-mate. It takes at least two sets of hands to do the work that the Ulysses does, not to mention always having someone awake to keep an eye on standard operations and the flight path. This character would need to have some sort of background as a crewman and as a friend/family member/associate/etc. of Roland. He's too paranoid to sleep with just anybody watching over his ship. Anyone interested in this can feel free to shoot me a PM.

From there, depending on who the crew ends up consisting of, and what they can do, we'll cooperatively come up with a direction for the lot of 'em.

Posted this in the chat box, but just in case it decides to get swallowed up and missed I shall also add it here. :]

I do have a mechanic that's currently sitting on Antheia. But as of right now, I'm not positive if she will leave or not. It depends on situations I guess, like how some people just need that little extra push to leave. She would be one of those, give her a good reason and she may hop on board.

That would probably work. The only hurdle would be coming up with a reason for them to head to Antheia, but that's workable. They could just have a someone on Glacies offer them a job carrying some time-sensitive cargo/supplies, or something. Ideas are welcome

I've got Holo hanging around on Glacies. I can always have him bump into the two of them and have him hire their ship to do some transporting for him (in this case, probably mammoth meat or something similar).
