To him, people are the diagnostic he'll ever be able to complete. This, in turn, causes him to be a fantastic listener. Sebastian is an incredibly sympathetic and caring boy with most of his emotions running deep through his veins.
@Lokipi


He should be just fine! Though before his coffee he could get rather irritated by too many questions, or when he's trying to focus. Those are some small quirks I didn't mention.

Wouldn't a spaceship have multiple pilots? Or at least a co-pilot? Just a thought.
I asked the same question. Here's a rough transcript of the conversation:


Nat : "So why can't there be a second pilot? It seems like it would make sense in case anything happened to the main one."


Off : "Well they're trying to get as many people off the planet as possible."


Nat : "So they really only want one pilot per ship so they can send more?"


Off : "Yeah."


Nat : "So if something happens to your character or you go inactive we're fucked."


Off : "Mhhhmmm."


Nat : "Great."

Just sounds like poor planning. xD
 
In theory Sebastian could take the controls if something really desperate is happening, but his knowledge only extends to how the ship works, not how to actually execute maneuvers and the like.


At best I could try and put us on auto-pilot or crash land. I don't want to make Sebastian over-powered so I tend to keep him in the lacking category when it comes to piloting, combat and medicine.
 
Ye, wise move with shifting this to OOC. Think we should go back and move the posts to here or just leave them?

haha noted for the future, although I'll let Fray learn these quirks for herself xD and hmmm well, that will be interesting xD There's an autopilot right? maybe that can be our way out of certain death? Although, if I am right to suggest, wouldn't it be natural to have someone with secondary training for a ship? So a co-pilot but just trained in basic stuff like emergency landings?

That's a question for @OffSideTech. Unfortunately I cannot control any of the story or how the RP will flow, which leaves him to be the final decision maker. I'll make sure to relay the concern again, however.
 
I'm also unsure if the ship has an autopilot. I'm hoping that will be detailed today, but Offside was up until 3AM so I don't know when/if that will happen.
 
I'm still getting used to this site's formatting, so if I post things in wrong places that's why. I think I've done stuff... somewhat right so far?
 
Yep, your C/S is in the right section and you escaped my mistake of talking in the character sign up too xD you got this down ;)

@Shireling @Lokipi @notasci @Beowulf
Good news guys, I was told I could write up our first post. RP'ing should be able to occur by tonight or tomorrow morning at the latest.


Time to slave away as my supreme overlord offside wishes ;u;.
Also, I was wondering if I could have some basic information about the aliens because my character is a xenobiologist (someone who studies alien biology) as well as a doctor.
 
@Shireling We don't know much about the aliens because of their superior space crafts they never had any reason for a ground attack. And every craft that is shot down is quickly retrieved by other ships. Although one ship was shot down in the outskirts and was scrapped quickly. Their ships are made from a exotic metal similar to tungsten. The Alien that was found inside is described as warm blooded, their respiratory system relies on Nitrogen instead of oxygen and they have a similar bone structure to us although their skin is much more sensitive and prone to cuts and bruises. Their brain has closely resembles one of a human.

Okay. Eduard would have been one of the doctors that examined the body.
 
Just as a heads up that Tuesdays and Thursdays are very busy for me, I have class and work from wake up til around 7:30pm (GMT-6) Tuesdays and often out later on Thursdays. I figured I should let everyone know, just so that if there's any problems that may arise because of me being gone for two days a week (Well... most of each). Not sure what level of activity is expected from you guys.


As an aside, will we be getting any sort of detailed specs on the ship we're on? Size, floors layout, etc.?
