Into the Nova RP
"We're sending them out," said Admiral Hall, her hand to her ear transceiver, "The Nova has stood on the edge of our system too long. There is only one way to find out what's on the other side of that thing, and our crew is ready and willing to launch." She frowned, listening to the voice on the other end of the transmission. "We are well aware of the risks. Our best enginieers have contructed a ship able to withstand immense pressure, heat, cold, acid, and anything else the Nova can throw at us." Hall looked out of the window of her office on the Space Station Ebony. Her glass-domed office gave her a view of the Earth on one side, and a view of the hangar on the other. Password: Supernova. In the hangar, she could see the sparks of plasma welders on the ship that was the S.S Starbound. "Of course, Mr. President." she said, and hung up on her transciever.
Behind her came a knock on her door. Admiral Hall sighed and turned around. "Enter!" she yelled. Captain Reginald Dunham stepped through the door, his olive green jacket wrinkling about his knees. "How is she coming along?" he asked.
"Well. I have no doubts that you will be pleased with her. The Starbound will not fail you."
"When will I see the crew?" Dunham asked.
"Now, if you wish."
"Please," said the anxious Captain Dunham. Admiral Hall once agin put her hand to her tranciever.
"Show the crew in."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a sci-fi RP. The crew of the S.S Starbound have been assigned with the mission of journeying into a strange swirling portal to some other place deemed 'The Nova'. Your Charries are the crew of the ship. As you write your sheets, I will write Hall introducing them and Dunham making his comments. After they're all introduced, we will begin the voyage.
A few rules:
1. No OP charries.
2. Two Charries max.
3. I'd appreciate it if you made your charrie sheets detailed, as it makes it easier for me to introduce them when I do.
4. Try not to make all of your charries super high rank.
5. Have fun!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are four departments aboard the Starbound:
Medical (pretty self explanitory)
Bridge (pilots, navigation, etc.)
Security/Military (again, pretty self-explanitory)
Engine and tech (Mechanics, engineers, etc.)
My charrie (Reginald Dunham) is the captain of the ship.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here's the sheet:

Gender/pronouns:
Age:

Also, age range should be about 25-57. They have to be experienced officers.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'll post my sheet after the first person posts. See you aboard the Starbound!

Eh why not? I may change some info later.
Name: Juno Eudora
Gender: Female
Age: 35
Rank: Co-Pilot
Department: Bridge
Personality: very headstrong, competitive, independent, and can sometimes be seen as aggressive. She's very determined and never gives up until she gets what she wants. She is an incrediblly hard worker and will stop at nothing. She has good instincts and can always trust her gut. She is very strong mentally, the problem is she acts so quickly that she doesn't always think things through. She is not that physically strong, which is why she isn't in the military section. She is agile though, but that normally doesn't come into use in her job. She is slightly trigger happy, and can get carried away when it comes to revenge. She is friendly once you get to know her, but before then, she is tough on you. She also gets irritated easily and can be impatient. She lives in the fast life, working fast, walking fast, talking fast, and thinking fast. The one thing she despises doing is slowing down. Slow people annoy her to pieces.
Backstory: Juno lived in the big city when she was younger, which gave her the speed she uses now. After moving to the country, she realized not everyone lived as fast as she did. The lifestyle annoyed her so much she ran away as soon as she was old enough to join the military. She's been in the military since she was 18, and is very proud of it. She hopes to move higher and higher up to prove her parents that she can survive anything.
Secret talent: actually can do parkour fairly well, but is slightly out of practice.
Other: is only afraid of one thing: failure.

Add this under the personality section please: She is tall and is slightly skinny. Her spikey hair is dyed bright red and yellow to make it look like fire. Her eyes are gold and her skin is a dark tan. She has a white scar running from her right eyebrow, across the bridge of her nose, all the way down to her collarbone. She has a very serious look on her face with sharp angular features like cheekbones.
Thank you admins!!
I'm sorry, but I can't tell which comment from Ice Wolf on this thread you meant. Plus your addtion is really long, so let's just have it be a separate comment.

The first crew member entered the office. She gave a salute to the Admiral and captain. "This," Admiral Hall announced, "is Juno Eudora. She will be your co-pilot. She's been in the military sinse she was 18. Juno, this is Captain Reginald Dunham."
"Greetings, Ms. Eurdora. I look forward to working with you," said the captain.
"And you as well, Captain, sir." Juno said, before she promptly walked out of the room.
"Your next officer is..."

Reserving a spot, please and thank you. I'll post my sheet tomorrow.

Name: Stella “Bones*” Pax
Gender: Female
Age: 27
Rank: Head/Lead/Chief (pick your poison) Doctor
Department: Medical
Appearance: Stella is lithe and 5”6, and she has fair but slightly tanned skin and sprays of freckles. She has chestnut brown hair with subtle and natural golden steaks in loose curls that go a bit past her shoulders. She has big green eyes that have gold rims, and she has always has a smirk on her face. She usually wears the uniform (there is one, I’m guessing), and if she needs to, a lab coat.
Personality (strength & Weaknesses, please): Stella is sarcastic, funny, and witty. She always has a smart aleck comment or a joke to crack, but she also takes her job very seriously. She can be a bit arrogant at times, but she’s also the best in her field, so she thinks she has a pass. Although young, she has a lot of insight when it comes to the world and to medics, and she’s a good leader. However, although she’s a good leader, she’ll sometimes break the rules of a higher authority if she deems it necessary. She’s also blunt. If you’re being a jerk, while others may shy away, she’ll tell you.
Backstory: Stella grew up in the country, and her family raised horses. She didn’t care for it that much though. She was only there whenever a horse would give birth, or when a family member would get injured. That’s why when she was old enough to leave home, she left for the big city and studied medical subjects. Stella quickly advanced and went higher up the chain until she could get aboard the S.S. Starbound. However, at one point in her life she hit rock bottom, and she was reckless and did things she shouldn’t have done. She’s had a few run-ins with the law, but she can always talk her way out of any situation. Stella has matured since then, though, and is better now.
Special Skill (nothing O, just something they're good at, EG: Mental Computation, drawing): Photographic memory, very resourceful
Other: Open to shipping? If that’s allowed. Also, @GW, could our charries be close friends? *I couldn’t help myself with the nickname. XD

"Stella Pax. Your lead Doctor," announced Admiral Hall as she walked into the room, "She's had some run-ins with the law, but she will do the job better than most others."
"Much Obliged, Ms. Pax," said Captain Dunham, "What do you expect on this voyage?"
"I expect for us to discover some very interesting things, and knowing how scientific voyages into unknown horizons work out, I'll probably die," replied the doctor.
"I sincerly hope that was a joke," the captain said, his eyebrows lowering.
"It was," said Doctor Pax.
"Badly timed humor, Stella," Dunham reprimanded, "You are dismissed." Doctor Pax walked out of the office. "Who's next?"
(March 29, 2018 - 4:36 pm)
@Admin, can you please change Stella’s age to 27? Arigato! ^^
Done!

Alright, here we go:
Name: Torri "Spark" Graveson
Gender: Female
Age: 30
Rank: Head engineer
Department: Engine & tech
Appearance: Tall and thin. Light brown skin and dark eyes, dark brown hair with a streak of a goldish color always in a high ponytail, wears cargo pants to carry around all her stuff, an amber-colored t-shirt, and ocasionally a lab coat. Has a prosthetic toe, which she invented and built herself.
Personality: Loudspoken, but a poor comunicator. Can come off as rude. Likes to argue and gets annoyed when people treat her below her rank. At heart, however, she's kind and dedicated to the success of the crew. Extraverted, honest, and agreeable (once you get to know her.)
Backstory: Grew up in a small town, and had an interest in building things out of junk. Eventually went to a college for technology and engineering. Since she was born without one of her toes, she made one for herself.
Special Skill: Hacking everything in and out of computers.
Other: None.

"Next is Torri Graveson," introduced Hall, "she's going to be your Cheif Engineer. According to her resume, she constructed a prosthetic toe for herself."
"Hello, Ms. Graveson," said Captain Dunham, "Very interesting that you made your own toe. I look forward to our partnership."
"Yeah, it was pretty easy. Operating on this ship is going to be a breeze," Graveson replied.
"I wouldn't bet on it. Space expiditions are notoriously unpredictable. And when you speak to me, please adress me as Captain Dunham, or Sir."
"Why?" asked Graveson.
"You are dismissed," Admiral Hall spoke before Dunham could reply. "Sorry about her," she said to Dunham.
P.S: My CAPTCHA says iccy. What about her, Kilp?

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! ooh WHAT IS INSiDE THE NOVA?!?!
Name: Zava Keldon
Gender/pronouns: Female, She/Her
Age: 28
Rank: Head of Military/Security
Department: Military/Security
Appearance: Dark skin, blue eyes, glasses, 5''8', asian decent, her legs are both cybernetic, and she has a scar on her cheek.
Personality (strength & Weaknesses, please): Creative, fairly brave, she is a perfectionist and a little stubborn.
Backstory: Nothing much, she was born of a fairly wealthy family who spoiled her, which she didn't like, so when she turned 18 she joined the crew of the HMSS Javalin, which was blown up after a series of murders, she escaped right before it went KUTCHAKABLAMMO.

I'll reserve a spot, if that's okay!
(March 29, 2018 - 4:10 pm)
Uhh, guys? Almost all of your charries are top of their department. I don’t know if you noticed, but the way the military works is that you have to have a lot of experience, and therefore must be older to be top of your department. I’m not saying you have to change anything, but remember that for the future. @Kyoto, I don’t think that your rebellious young officer would be very good friends with Captain Dunham, but you can try to befriend him. @Catsclaw, the only weapon needed by an officer would be a standard issue laser pistol. Electric swords seems over-the-top and completely unnecessary, as it would most likely be confiscated anyway.
Name: Reginald Thomas Dunham
Gender/pronouns: Male he/him
Age: 46
Rank: Captain
Department: Bridge
Appearance: He has dark brown skin and short black hair. His eyes are a dark blue, and stand out. He has a short, stubby nose that appears disproportionate against the rest of his face. He has heavy eyebrows that rest low on his eyes. He's about 6 foot 5 Despite his intimidating height and face, there are smile wrinkles around his eyes. He has a thin beard too, but he'll shave it at some point along the voyage. He wears an olive green military peacoat, with the shiny badge of rank displayed on the left side of his chest.
Personality (strength & Weaknesses, please): He is a bit of a gentle giant, but can become very stern if questioned. Doesn’t like insubordination at ALL, and will get angry if he isn’t shown the respect he feels he deserves. If respected, he can be easygoing and laid back, but still strict. His presence demands a certain respect, but also that he is not aggressive. He is very conservative of his crew, and would easily sacrifice himself for their lives. However, he finds ignorance annoying, and will most likely leave you to figure it out if you have a stupid question. He also is prone to overreaction to disrespect.
Backstory: Captain Dunham was born into the Stellar Navy, as his father was the Captain of the S.S Arcburg. His father supported his choice in career the whole way through his training, and Dunham looks up to him. His mother died during childbirth, so he doesn’t have any memories of her. She was a medical officer aboard the Arcburg. Captain Dunham started his career as a navigator, but the captain aboard the ship he was operating on took a special liking to him, and also aided him in his training. When he was given command of his first vessel, he successfully led it on a trading voyage that made his name well known on Earth, and what allowed him to get a position on the Starbound.
Special Skill: He has a commanding presence, and it is very hard not to listen to him.
Other: N/A
Password: Uhhh, Supernova!

Haha, you’re right. I can see some clashes because of “insubordination” in the future; I think it’ll become a love/hate relationship. XD
