A female warrior with proper armor?  That's pretty rare in any media.

Let's see, there's Samus Aran, and the Female Spartan from Halo: Reach, and the women from Mass Effect and that's about it as far as I can remember.  Except in Skyrim where armor is pretty much the same.

You and I remember [i]Skyrim[/i] very differently...

That's awesome. How do you go about landing a job like that? I'm interested in becoming a Profession Writer myself. But between publishing houses and the trials of self-publishing, the book route seems like a far-fetch dream.

Years and years and years of posting stories on forum sites, doing favours for writers and artists and generally networking with talented people so they can make introductions for you. The artist who made the reference image I posted for the character now works on a game called [url=http://relicknights.wikia.com/wiki/Relic_Knights_Wiki][i]Relic Knights[/i][/url] for example, and I'm waiting to hear back on some work for one of their expansions.

And you're actually serious? The whole thing fell apart because of the size of her boobs?
[/quote]
Not just that, but the boob size was an example of where the character designer and the artists couldn't get their ideas to tally up. By the time they'd finished getting little details ironed out some of them had already moved onto other projects and were no longer available.

Whenever you hear that someone left a project due to 'creative differences' what they really mean is that preproduction took so long the people involved had to find themselves some paying work before starving to death.

Also for possibly making it into the rest of the ship harder

You almost make that sound like airlock hatches are put on ships for a reason, other than giving adventurers something to use as target practice. I mean, it's not like you're gonna have to keep the interior environment stable for the party now that two of the airlocks have been bypassed, is it?

[quote=@Kalas]
Yo, [@SimplyJohn], what is Mez expecting to find on the other side of this hatch? Like, how am I gonna describe it? Dark, Dingy and Gothic, or what? An image might help too :P

Picture Hadley's Hope when the marines arrived in the film [i]Aliens[/i]. Dark, unpowered, abandoned, signs of small arms fire and grenade damage to the walls and deck plates, etc. And corridors, lots of corridors.
