First post isn't super exciting, it's mainly an intro to where the ship is, what's happening, and what the situation is. Your characters are likely to be on the shuttle, or one of the ones accompanying it, and feel free to interact with each other and make up a story about how and why you were delayed. You can have talked to one another or an NPC en route, or just go straight into it and talk to Erien - or completely miss her and get lost on the ship. 
It's a slow start, but I thought that'd be a good way to build up to things being more exciting! 

I hope you enjoy it, I'm looking forward to seeing all of your characters in action.

And on that note, I edited Erien a little bit as I nailed down a few bits of her personality I wanted to change.
