“Ah, hell...” muttered Dale as he looked over the incoming documents that the ship possessed.


All he could really do is suck his teeth as the information ebbed over the high-grain static of sub-par lunar assets. Nuclear core, Low visibilty on the work deck, dividends of the corporate nature. Yup, it was gonna be one of those days. Being a moon buzzard wasn't all it was cracked up to be Dale thought. He whisked away those demons as the derelict approached radar range.

Look who just rolled in!
Welcome to Huntsville's Rocketry Alternative, Big Throw! As you might imagine, centrifugal technology has progressed into a lucrative and booming substitute for the red tape that is rockets. In this universe it's a cheaper more corporate solution to logistical concerns. Basically, come up with your own space cowboy to get yeeted to the moon! Let's break some ships! (methods and such are varied). I'm thinking the year is 2180, that gets us far enough ahead tech wise I believe. Wars, global warming, resource droughts, feel free to explore near-future vibes. The microclimate is of a fledgling moon city, with the required logistical concerns and laborpool to entice such growth. Scarping ships and siphoning natural resources are the big hitters, but it is a city so fluff it up. Earth is still around, in co-dependent scenario.

Character wants to prove herself, test self having been more a private pilot for the family and running more routine flights. She wants to prove she is a real pilot and not just because of her surname and family.

Story to go, a pilot with a abit of a chip but also skills who wants to prove to herself as well she deserves what she has.

Her feelings about androids and the more heavily mechanised and augmented might also be challenged as she is forced to deal with a wide range of the outsiders, the strange and the chancers taking a risk.


I dig this a lot, especially the strive for glory. That motivation makes and breaks folks in the zero-G, and could be a blast to play out especially with the body purism at play. Yes, there are swaths of modification to be a spacer in this universe. I can picture the docking of derelicts and shuttling big equipment where it's needed on the worksite, boosters blaring,

You pretty much nailed the sparse sheet I had and the vibe, so. I'll throw my idea up and let's see!

Yup, just "casually" spinning a 100 ton cargo drop a foot from the gate as the cargo hauler does a 180 degree pirouette and rotates on thrusters that l intended to just back in like a space mini van lol.

All so she can get back in time for the Hot chocolate hour at rhe mess, with real genuine marshmallows. Totally in control of course!

Depends what cahrcetes get but she gonna be really getting weird feelings about androids, like the alien ones that are fully sentient. Their human...but...they really not.... but joining have to work with them...

My character, who you all may only have initial radio chatter with before each 'mission' which is completed once the ship is scrapped to varied standards.
