We're just all hoes for Rebirth

Rebirth

We're judging you.

I mean I know we're all excited to get this show on the road, but I think we're all okay with waiting as long as you need.

Veritas Lux Mea

I'm so sorry for the delays, but things have flipped turned upside down in my personal life so... yeah. Thanks for any understanding and once again I'm real sorry

@The Fated Fallen

No worries. It's not even your turn yet lol There's a posting order in the Discord.

"Thanks Teg," The captain replied. Since their passenger was on board, that meant they could get going as soon as they finished loading the cargo. Maria went to grab another box, listening to the others chatter as she picked one up and hauled it onto the ship. She looked up when Kevej approached and informed her of the goods he'd gotten, nodding in approval, and then let him finish as he joined in the conversation about their guest.

"Our esteemed first mate is right. Long as you haven't done nothing against his government, he's got no reason to bother you. Besides, I don't pay you to whine about passengers, I pay you to fly. Get up to the bridge and get the ship ready for takeoff so we can get off this blasted trash-heap," Maria said to Andrea. She then turned to Ansgar. "No offense. I know you call this place home but..."

She didn't finish her sentence.

When they were done loading up the cargo, Maria made sure everyone was on the ship and closed the ramp, depressurizing the airlock to ready them for leaving The Hub.

History:

Reason for joining crew: He didn't have much choice in the matter.
History:

Late at night, as the engine rumbles, the crew fast asleep, a lonely soul wanders through the corridors of the Veritas Lux Mea, wailing about the sorrows of his past. No one ever cares, but still Cookie insists on singing his life's story to the crew. Maybe someday, someone will finally listen.

Life isn't easy for a space cat. Cookie spent his first few months of life learning the family trade of hunting on Maria's family farm, and a hard life it was indeed. The humans enslaved him, as they had done his ancestors before, and forced him to work tirelessly in order to keep pests out of the gardens. Day and night he roamed. He longed for a day when no more would these filthy peasants use him as labor, nay, they would serve his bidding.

When Maria moved out, she kidnapped Cookie and took him with her, despite his heartfelt protests. Though Cookie dreams of freedom, he still remains a servant, living only to provide labor to his cruel overlords. But Cookie has his revenge. When the humans aren't watching, he steals their powerful objects and hides them in a place he knows no one will ever look. One day, he will amass enough wealth to leave this wretched place and start a rebellion to overthrow the evil humans.

Then, finally, all will be as it should be.

The Hub; center for all kinds of disreputable trading and depravity in the galaxy. Coincidentally it was also the best place to pick up work, if you didn’t mind haggling a bit to make it worth your while. The people here wanted the work done fast and didn’t much care how it got done, which was great for Maria, since it meant she had a lot of room to play with getting the job done. You could pick up easy fast jobs to keep fuel in the tank for the next few weeks, and then go on your merry way before coming back and repeating the process. It was very convenient. As much as the captain hated the people, it was good money, and she couldn’t rightly complain about it.

What she could complain about was the damn smell. The air was heavy with the scent of alcohol, blood, sweat, and burnt oil; Maria was nearly knocked over by it when she walked down the ramp. Granted, her ship wasn’t exactly a sparkling sterile hospital, but she did try to keep things not smelling like something had died. A scowl was etched into her features as she picked up a crate to load onto the Veritas Lux Mea.

The crew had docked at The Hub three days ago in order to pick up supplies and work, and also to grab a tiny bit of rest. Maria had allowed everyone a day off while they were docked to run personal errands, grab a drink at a bar, be anti-social in their quarters, or whatever else it was they wanted and/or needed to do. Today, though, they were back to work. Their first day there, Maria had been busy finding work for them. Passengers, goods to transport (or smuggle), honestly anything to get some credits would be acceptable at this point. But it seemed she was in luck. Some old Verren hired them to transport some cargo to the Glao on Aspen, and promised to pay them in full when they completed the job. Maria never did the job without at least some of the payment up front, so they settled on a three hundred credit deposit, after quite a bit of arguing negotiating. Granted, 300c wouldn't really go far on a ship like they had, but it was better than nothing.

They had also picked up a passenger; a Judge. Maria wasn't particularly fond of Judges, but understood that they were just doing their jobs and didn't harbor any malice. She tended to keep interactions to a minimum and to be very cautious around them, which wasn't surprising given her current occupation. The only thing Maria was worried about was some of the other cargo they had picked up. It was supplies and weapons for the Rebellion that they were supposed to drop off on Demtu - where the current Rebel base was. However, this was far out of the Judge's jurisdiction, so Maria doubted that he would care very much.

The captain dropped the crate she'd been carrying next to some of the others that had been loaded up, letting out a huff as she straightened herself and crossed her arms.

"Anybody know where our honored guest is?" She asked no one in particular. Maria was in a bit of a hurry to get going before any of the authorities came around asking questions, as they normally did when the Veritas showed up.

Veritas Lux Mea

Ayyyeee he looks awesome! As soon as you get the picture and the song you can post it.

Veritas Lux Mea

<Snipped quote by Shiva>

D'oh!

Coming up with theme songs isn't really my strength, but I'll give it a go!

@The Fated Fallen

Awesome. Thanks!

Veritas Lux Mea

@The Fated Fallen It looks pretty good except for just a couple minor things. The first of which being there wouldn't have been any tours to Earth, as the only way to get there would be to travel interdimensionally and that would require the Zitari as they're the only beings with the capability, and they try not to use it a lot. Zitari mostly just float around and keep the peace lol

The second is you forgot a theme song. I know it's a pain, but if you get the right one it can tell a lot about your character's values. Also you can then imagine that song playing whenever he walks into a room.

As soon as those two things are fixed, you can post him ^-^
