Hi! YEAH Sulu! As a former kendoka, Sulu's sword was one of my favorite parts in the new movie.
I'm bookdragon and was prodded encouraged to try this sort of RPing for the first time by Bether too. My characters:
Security Chief Sam Giotto noteasybeingred - he's the old guy on the ship, a 30+ year Starfleet veteran who got roped into this assignment by his old friend Adm. Pike. He's also been practicing various martial arts longer than most people on this ship have been alive, so if Sulu ever wants to spar... Also, with the last Sulu, Giotto had twisted his arm into running fencing classes but we don't have to keep that if you don't want to.
Lt. Cmdr. Ann Mulhall seek_new_life - xenobiologist and biomaterials/mechaincs engineer. Ann is a bit shy, but she loves botany too and recently acquired a semi-empathic plant like the one from TOS 'The Man Trap'. Sulu is welcome to come see it.
Michael 'Burnie' Burnstein wheresthekaboom - weapons/combat engineer. Burnie is a bit of a pyro and a little eccentric (okay, weird) but he keeps the phasers working.
