Sounds kina fun, could one perhaps be a fighter squadron leader?
Sure.
Since FTL Fighters aren't common, you could be attached to someone else's Carrier, or you can make an NPC Carrier yourself.
This is a Space-Combat RP with a very heroic(?) tone to it. With the rise of more Space Sim games, like Elite Dangerous and Star Citizen, I got this idea of an RP where we play as ship Captains. You choose your ship type, flesh it out with crew, weaponry, and all that sort of stuff. We also need one Admiral, to command the Fleet, mostly directing where the next battle will be. The Admiral will also be the Co-GM of sorts.
The very rough version of this story is that Humanity finally started to explore space, setting up colonies, and making alliances with various alien species. Very Star-Trek-esque beginning. Until Humanity met a race that could not be reasoned with, war broke out and the Alliance that the humans established is so far losing the war. Our RP starts several years into the war, with the enemy currently invading one of the cornerstones of the Alliance, the Sol System. This is where we push them back.
Much more details in the OOC to come. So who's up for it? We also need a name for this RP.

2040 - First contact with an Alien race.
2118 - The Alliance is officially formed, as dozens of alien races join.
2119 - The Alliance enters a golden age of science, exploration and understanding.
2187 - The Alliance makes first contact with The Thresh Empire. War breaks out as diplomacy fails.
2192 - Earth is under siege.

Hoping there's room for one more.
Right now I'm reviewing all the other sheets to get a taste as to what's been taken, then I'll be working on my sheet.

I have made my glorious returnAre we making teachers now?
Yes.
So... Who's actually still here? The IC took a while to start, and I've seen people just disappear from RPs without a word before.
Jakhi opened his mouth to reply to Chen, but stopped, leaving his mouth open as he finally realized that he wasn't looking at a natural being, but rather a synthetic android. Well that explains why she knows my name, he thought to himself. He examined her further, noting all of the... Robotic bits of her usually perfect form. She gave Jakhi a sense of unease, and he found his hand instinctively hovering over his revolver holster. The Hunter consciously crossed his arms in an effort to keep his hand away from his gun, and leaned on one leg. Although at a loss of what to say at the strange marvel of engineering and science in front of him, he settled on greeting them back.
"Chen." He nodded to her, a person with a particularly good ear could hear the hint of unease in his voice. "Guardsman Williams, Guardsman Campbell." He said to the other two. He kept one eye on the android, remembering the tales of certain early androids going ballistic and harming the people nearby. After a second, he spoke again, "Do we have any idea as to what we're walking into?"

Jakhi opened the door to a rather large wooden tavern, popular with hunters in particular. He passed by several other hunters sitting and socializing. The more experienced hunters glanced at Jakhi's pack, always curious as to what others bring back from the untamed world. Jakhi was carrying several white fur pelts, folded into squares and secured with string. Some hunters said their greetings and Jakhi returned them. He stopped at the bar, where the Barkeeper stood, smiling.
"Welcome back Mr. Wintergreen! What is your catch today?" He spoke in a strange accent. The Barkeeper was the reason why most hunters liked this particular tavern, a guy who, aside from mead and alcohol, sold many things. From small candies, to bullets, to medical supplies. Of course, it was always better to go to a specialized merchant since they offered a wider variety of whatever they sold, but many hunters found that this tavern was good for many of their needs.
"Six large furs from mountain predators." Jakhi replied with a hint of pride, placing the furs on the counter.
"Ah! Mountain furs are very rare to come by, how long did it take for you to acquire these?" The Barkeeper asked while inspecting the furs. This was another reason why hunters liked the place, the Barkeeper purchased whatever they hunted, then handed the items to his wife, who owned a shop in the Markets. He was a middleman, and hunters who didn't have the time to sell their items themselves could sell it to the Barkeeper.
"I spent a month stalking a small pack of mountain felines, then the concurrent fight lasted roughly half an hour. About two days of butchering and skinning, and another two weeks making the trip back. Unfortunately I couldn't bring any of the meat with me." Jakhi explained, to which the Barkeeper replied with a 'tsk tsk'. "Don't worry, I had it frozen on that mountain. When Keller comes by, could you tell him to go to Mountain A-4 and fetch the meat? It's marked by three mountain cat skulls." He continued,
"Of course my friend. Anyways, how does a hundred and a half more than usual large pelts sound?" The Barkeeper asked,
"Sounds good." Taking the currency that the Barkeeper offered. He was about to leave when he heard the intercom system crackle to life.
"Testing, testing. Citizens of Zion. I have a very important announcement to make. Just south of our colony, another mining settlement has seemingly disappeared. TWR would like us to send a team to go investigate. All free hands should head towards the front gate. Captain, out."
Everyone in the tavern looked at each other, and many of the hunters began to make excuses. Some apparently had dates, others were preparing to a hunt.
Jakhi sighed, "Fine, fine. I'll go. Dak, you're getting the next one though."
A "Yeah" was heard from across the bar.
Jakhi turned to the Barkeeper and gave him some money, then took a fresh box of mints. After leaving the tavern, he walked to the front gate. Noticing that already a couple of people had gathered.
"Is this the team?" He asked them.
