Bio

I'm a generally chill gomboblin that can be kinda particular. I grew up with plenty of electronics and video games, mostly with games like Final Fantasy, Zelda, and StarCraft. Lots of Nintendo. Dark Cloud is pretty sick. That's a lot of variety, and I do like to play a lot of different games. I like to blend magic and technology in my writing, bringing fantasy into space and sci-fi.

Magic in space is something that I find isn't done very much. Airships and spaceships could make for some cool centerpieces. Skies of Arcadia did a fantastic job of this. Perhaps that's not in space, exactly, but it's pretty close. Some of those ships may as well be space ships.

"Slavers, huh?" Serenity took a moment to consider the information before speaking again. "Yeah, I've got a ship. A cruiser. Docked at the orbital elevator. Before we go running off to fight slavers, though, we'll need a plan. We'll need to know what we're getting into, their defenses. If you can give me something to start with, I should be able to dig up some information and put something together. Oooh, I hope they're on a ship..." If they were on a ship, she could try to capture it during their rescue operation. And then she could refit it to her purposes, maybe sell it.

A ship used by slavers would have a lot of holding cells, or at least a large holding area and life support enough to support their 'freight'. She could refit it into a hospital ship and sell it to an underfunded medical outfit with a reasonable payment plan. Give them the edge they need to get past financial problems.

As she considers the various possibilities, she takes another puff from her space moss. "Mm, anybody want some, by the way?" The smoke, as she inhales it, is drawn through a long path, going around her body like a crazy straw. Really, she was just entertaining herself by doing that.
Spaaaaaaaace!
"Ah, is /that/ what happened... I figured it must have been something like that." Serenity remarks, gazing at Mika before she turns back to the robotic marvel in front of her. "Mmm, a modified artisan chassis? I see... modified for gun slinging. A lot of these design decisions make... a lot more sense, knowing that." She continues to gush over him for a moment before she realized she was asked a question. "Hm? Oh, me? My name's Serenity. I'm... an inventor. It's always exciting to get a chance to see craftsmanship like this." She smiles sweetly, though something else caught her ear.

"Er... what's all this about a rescue mission? Sounds like you need a ship."
Sure. She's tougher than she looks. :3
Chekov's Corner Gun Store.
Serenity's eyes gaze over the various runes. So it was an ancestral possession, was it? Most intriguing, and informative. "The Kal'rik Belt? Oooh..." She watches the cloak and smiles softly as he wraps it around himself. It was a cherished possession of his, she could see. "Thank you for sharing that with me." She bows politely, her fluffy white tail swaying gently. "I have lost interested in your drum of... strange contents. Learning a little about your cloak has sated my curiosity. I thank you very much for your time and business."

An interesting man, certainly. She may have to come back some time. But, now it was time to continue on her vacation. The ship architect turns and waves over her shoulder as she leaves the store, but only after picking up the wishing paw and plant she'd just purchased. She steps out and nabs another bit of her purchased recreational product and floats it in the air next to her, doing as she did before. She has a bit of fun with the shape this time, though, weaving the smoke all around her as she inhales it.

As she walks, she realizes she's forgotten which direction the casino would be in. She was scolding herself internally for letting herself be so airheaded when she felt a large amount of infrared nearby. Some kind of really intense oven, it felt like... an incinerator? In the streets? It was around the next corner.

She stepped around and her foot nudged against something on the ground, next to the building. She looked down and moved her foot away, one ear lowering. "A gun grip?" She crouches briefly to pick it up, mumbling to herself, "blown apart... some kind of internal reaction?" She carefully felt at the bent edges of the metal piece. Some of the metal on the grip had torn as the metal had warped and was very sharp, she should be careful not to cut herself. She shrugs her shoulders and looks up. Oh, cleaning bots were here... As well as a really sophisticated robot! Her ears perk up and she bustles over. "Aah, a Ceedromian? Wooow~, it's really rare to see one of you!" She then proceeds to gush about the fine craftsmanship of his hand and arm parts, clearly crafted for precision, and what else have you.
Right.
I don't even know what district they're in, though. = w=
We should plot for Serenity and Mika to run into each other, too. :3

She may get kinda up on that cool gunslinger robot, though. She's a nerd like that.
"Two pounds." Serenity corrected, slipping the card back into her dress. "Lumina will be in touch." Sure enough, the shop keeper would receive a communications message from Serene Designs Research Vessel, Stellar Seer. The message stated that a shipping drone would be by shortly to pick up a previously placed order.

"Tell me about your cloak first, shopkeep." She suspected she might want to leave, once she learns what's in the drum. She takes another puff of the space moss she'd broken off previously, finishing the sample amount.
