Hi, all. I'm Joss. I was here for a hot minute in the first day or two of the game, then had to drop when life threw a Through the Looking-Glass level nonsensical party. With that squared away, I'd love to come back. Before I start sprinting into char dev, are there any lines, roles or niches that particularly need filling?
That said, I've been toying with an Astraeus crewman who is kind of half Spock, half Miranda Lawson, and a total mess when reality doesn't fit into her perfectly well calculated expectations. She's the product of a fledgling genetic modification and engineering initiative for human advancement on Eden. Is this an interesting concept to the gang, or someone you'd want to see around?
She'd be one of those perfect-on-the-surface people, and whip smart, with or without the neural implants that boost memory, piloting reflexes, snap mathematical calculations or statistics, etc (narrowed down by wherever I end up putting her). The tech's not without growing pains, though. There'd be a little something off about her; no-nonsense, a little chilly, confused by some social queues, migraines, odd ticks, the works. Or she might just have a bad habit of randomly announcing your likelihood, to the fourth integer, of dying if you poke that pretty native red plant over there. The Gov't installed her on the Astraeus to vet the value of the gene program in the field, but her brain might be a tad too computational to adapt to an unexpected medieval wonderland. She hates dirt, roughing it, anything she deems uncivilized, and will very much want someone (Astraeus or Terociel) to cling too until the shock wears off.
I'd love it if she ended up as some sort of high court spectacle or freak sideshow thing. I have fantastic mental images of C-3PO getting captured by Ewoks and being treated like a wizard, for whatever reason. Just substitute a super smart sheltered lab rat woman who really wants a logical explanation for everything in Terociel. Alternately, maybe a misfit member of a traveling group, or a tagalong for a cleric or scholar whom she could pester with questions and constantly try to persuade them to take her to Nova Sanco to study.
