my stuff...
my stuff...
#1
Or it will be once I finish working ideas out. Figured I could just make a thread to set down my vehicals/characters/history/ect, and hopefully have someone catch problems before I get too deep into them.
comments welcome
2nd edit (count is solely for my own curiosity)
***********************
Ship Name: SS Starhawk
Created by Tim Brazeau (Timote)
Registry Number: SS-
Base Hull: Douglas C-133B Cargomaster
Drive Type: Speed (max velocity 0.0075C)
Owner of Record: Wing and a Prayer Enterprises
Flag of Record: Canada
Purpose: Mobile Home, Cargo/Passenger Transport, Asteroid mining/prospecting,
Launched: Nov 13 2009
Crew:
* Tim Brazeau (captain/pilot)
* John 'J.T.' Carlson (Engineer)
* Rob Holmes (Navigator/co-pilot/Computer specialist)
* Amanda Elliston (cargomaster/gunner)
* George ___ (medic/cook/gunner)
Supplementary Crew:
* Thumper (ship's cat/mascot)
* Bob Mackenzie (AI)
* Doug Mackenzie (AI)
Supplementary vehicals:
* APE unit 1 (large exoframe for construction, maintenance and also used for loading large/heavy cargo.)
Known Vehicle Quirks:
* Lactose intolerant - The starhawk does not like milk. Bringing milk aboard causes a loss of roughly half the ship's power and lowered efficency of most systems. Oddly this is not triggered by other dairy products such as cheese, butter, or even dehydrated milk (as long as it remains in powdered form). The effects last for one or more hours after the milk is disposed of (1 hr if removed from the ship, drinking it doesn't help as the effect doesn't start to wear off until the milk is digested by the drinker's body.
* Great White North, eh? - The ship's AIs are based off of Bob and Doug Mackenzie (after a DVD of Strange Brew was left in the entertainment center overnight). Might be better described as Artificial Stupidities.
Known Crew Quirks:
* You want what? - Due to the ship's problem with milk, the crew tend to order it quite a bit when they are off the the ship. This gets them some rather odd looks when they order a glass of milk at a bar.
* Not telling - J.T. refuses to admit what his middle initial (T) stands for. Just that his mother named after an actor she was a fan of.
Faction: Generalist
Home Port: Babylon.5
Current Location:
Status:
Trivia:
* While Bob and Doug aren't the most efficient of AIs, Tim knows it could have been worse. A few days prior he'd left 'Monty Python's Quest for the Holy Grail' in the entertainment center. The thought of AIs based on _that_ film is disturbing to say the least.
* The base hull was purchased from Davis-Monthan AFB with assistance from Mr Morden/Johnson.
Description: Based on a military cargoplane, so the body is long and (relatively) narrow, split into Upper and Lower decks for the most part (it's a little less than 50ft tall). The wings are cut off roughly a meter/yard from the hull, with a pair of jury-rigged (and then 'waved) engines nestled underneath next to the hull.
The ship's weapon systems consist of a pair of quad turrets (one of the top and a retractable one below) whose designs are based on a mix of the millenium Falcon and WW2 bombers. As of SOS-con they are mostly bluff, as the crew still haven't gotten the power feeds to work properly. The guns are currently little more than really impressive looking laser pointers.
Power systems consist of a large Solid cube, with a hardtech backup system for lifesupport and communications.__________________
