[b]Name:[/b] Rose Cerulean Lime IX
 
[b]Age:[/b] 29
 
[b]Gender:[/b] Female
 
[b]Appearance:[/b] [url=http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=762021]"Captain,[/url] [url=http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=762019]it's too hot.[/url] [url=http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=762020]I'm melting."[/url]
Though her 'default' size is actually only 2'8, she generally tries to stay bigger than that. If she's smaller, she can't really cook, or reach the sink to get bigger. Her actual normal size is from a little bigger than the captain to a head taller.
 
[b]Personality:[/b] Very socially dense and slow on the uptake, Rose could be forgiven for being a complete idiot. She has all the social graces of a brick and an attitude like a puppy. It's easy to tell if she's upset or scared (aside from changing to blue or green), because she simply can't hide her emotions.
The thing is, Rose [i]isn't[/i] an idiot. Inattentive and rather slow to spot hidden implications, but she's no slouch when it comes to planning or understanding complex concepts.
 
[b]Skills:[/b] Master Chef: pretty much since she was born, Rose has been learning to cook all the many and varied foods of the galaxy, even if she was supposed to be doing something else. By quite a large margin, she's better at cooking than pretty much anyone else on the ship.
Size May Vary: She'll dry out over time and return to being her smallest size, but she can be filled up with water to grow larger. Anything over 8' tall is hazardous, making her vulnerable to the sorts of injuries that normally can't even bother her. She's pretty malleable about how the volume is all distributed.
Toughness: Stabbing or clubbing Rose is about as ineffective as you can get. Cutting her isn't all that much better if you don't just cut something off. Generally, you want to use heat or lasers... but that just makes her smaller. She's rather damn annoying to kill. In a combat situation, her greatest contribution is to just stand in front of the other crew members.
Clothing: Normal clothes tend to sink in a little and fail to do what they're supposed to, so Rose learned to essentially separate an entire chunk of her body from herself. Combined with colour-changing properties, she's been able to get quite a varied wardrobe, even if it doesn't feel substantially different from her skin.
 
[b]Equipment:[/b] Kitchen utensils! Especially knives.
 
[b]Brief Backstory:[/b] A member of a scientifically-created race--initially for reasons of making up draught animal deficits on some more machine-inhospitable agricultural worlds. Some bright spark chose to try and make soldiers this way... only for the experiment to be declared a failure because none of them seemed terribly interested in fighting. Rose, for instance, only cared about food.
Left to their own devices, she learned to cook--and picked up a bunch of knowledge about random places in the galaxy whilst doing so--before offering to join Yurika's crew.
 
[b]Position in Crew:[/b] Cook.
