I think (??) I have the basic gist of the game and its premise. I think the basic storyline I'm going with is that she was born the youngest of an academic family, who went into medicine because she had to do something, though now that she's looking down the barrel of forty, she's realized that she basically hates most of her life and decides to give up the secure clinical career to seek out a new course, which lands her as the assistant medic on the Traveler, which will certainly be a new course for her life and career. but, you know, adventure. she's obviously led a somewhat sheltered life until recently.
