Okay i've been musing and i think i've got a character idea for you to okay-

It would be a finantial backer for your dude, cause i'm sure whatever he managed to save wouldn't be enough for a potential colonization trip on the downlow, so enter my character as the rich benifactor that taggs along...

Only this benifactor actually some rich kid space geek who fancies themself to be a hippy survivialist. 

;P what do you think? can they tag along? I can also do multipul characters if you'd like.
