Is it *normal* to have a bunch of readers on your 1x1?

Is that how you get visitor messages? I thought you got them by being cool. ... oh, shit, I forgot I had any.

If I ever imply France in an RP where, for example, the context for calling something "French Toast" doesn't exist, you can know that's not me.

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.
Oh, well, that's fortunate, cause I don't normally do evil. Alright, lemme churn on it and look at your wiki and things. I've already been thinking about it a little, I think I've got an idea...
Welcome to the guild! It's good to see new members. Don't forget to check general interest checks, too. Especially if you want something like a wholesome 1x1.
I'd be looking for either a 1x1 partner or a co-GM for a small group RP. I tend to have one primary character and maybe some supporting characters, but I can do more. Let's get right into it.
The galaxy has already faced the apocalypse. Much of civilization had been destroyed in the war against an unknown force of horrors. Not some strange, interdimensional horrors that defy logic or reason, no. These horrors were familiar, these horrors were flesh and bone contorted and stretched together with machinery to become horrendous abominations of destruction and violence.
The horrors came, and at the final hour of the Terran people, the apocalypse vanished. None remain to remember why, or even to remember the threat, but fragments of the doom that came remain. Parts and pieces touched by the taint, whole machines just waiting to wake and begin the mindless slaughter yet again.
Amidst the peace, obtained by ancient powers in a wild gambit, hope had been given a form. A new kind of material, crystalized energy, had been left behind in the wake of disaster. The substance would come to be known as Aevon, and it would power the rise of Terrans back into space and beyond.
A message left with the crystal would drive them. The apocalypse would return and once again threaten all that lives. It was up to Terra to unite the galaxy against the threat that would one day return.
There are many directions we can go with this.
A populated planet has been discovered nearby, and Terra sends a team that would vary in size, depending on the situation.
Interacting with another galactic empire that's recovering from the apocalypse.
On a planet that has allied with Terra and accepted her influence, we could go a more slice-of-life/magical individual route.
Star Trek/Deep Space Nine-ish thing on the roving colony ship.
Or we can talk about what you'd want to do.
There's all sorts of options. I've left out some details, as well, because there's a lot of details, and I don't want to drown people so quickly.
Personality: Carina is a very dry young lady, to-the-point but also with a sense of humor that can be hard to catch because of her delivery and mannerisms. She keeps to herself, mostly, and can seem cold, but she's just looking out for herself. Brief Backstory: Carina grew up with an artifact-hunting dad and a doting mother. She idolized her dad for the cool equipment he got to use, and the neat-o artifacts he sometimes brought home, though he sold most of them. Once, he brought her back a shiny, pretty, but otherwise unassuming crystal. Well, eventually, when she was about fifteen or so, her cool dad never came home. It took her about a year to figure it out, by which time she'd already started working to take care of her depressed mother. When her mother died, she decided it was time to try her own hand at hunting. Skills: Computer "Magic" - Carina has adapted previously existing systems to interface with her magic, using the crystal substance. Even without this interface, she's a skilled computer scientist. Machine Operating - From a lifetime of playing games and using interfaces, Carina is a natural when it comes to operating most machines. Besides the fact that many things are labeled, certain things have certain conventions that tend to be followed in their design. She's also a decent technician. Home Cooking - Having had to live on her own, at times on a tight budget, Carina has learned to cook for herself to save money. She's pretty good, too. Gardening - She's gotten herself a decent green thumb since she started gardening. She uses the produce in her cooking. Abilities: Crystal Interface - Using the crystals she's been growing, Carina has been developing unique systems allowed by the exotic properties of the crystal. This includes a responsive AI she's programmed into her core crystal. Hardlight Manifestation - Linked to the way she interfaces with her crystals, Carina can manifest hardlight into various shapes. She can use the manifestations as a shield or weapon, or for mundane purposes like plates and tools. Equipment: Crystal Garden - When Carina noticed the crystal she'd found was growing, she planted it in her yard, and started a garden around it. Core Crystal - One of the fruits in her garden didn't grow as a fruit, but some kind of dense crystal. This one was particularly pretty, so she kept it as a necklace and used it as a nexus core. Drones - Carina has taken scrap parts she found from various hunts and cobbled them together into a few remote control drones. The crystal she grows has turned out to be a useful material for filling in gaps. Faction: None
Oh, should I write in a description and set the image at the top? I'll do that later...
I imagine power levels, as you might call them, will vary. Agency and power are a thing to balance against each other, as well. How likely is this character to upend things vs how strong are they.
