Each player will create a field agent and one to three support npcs to populate our mission control. These npcs should be designed to best support your field character, so each one should somehow tie into their specialty. Support characters will have a mini bio on the CS.

A UCC team is made up of several field agents, and for this rp we have broken them down in several specialist positions. Many of these positions lend themselves easily for more than one player character to participate; scientists and security especially. In order to start we will need at least one player per agent specialty and will accept doubles and other agent specialties after the first five have been filled.

As we are playing a NASA based team, all characters should be human. NASA is self aligned and no longer has any political ties. Most people don’t know what the N even stood for, never mind the rest of the acronym. They recruit and accept applicants from diverse and far ranging places.


  • Mostly made up of former police, military, black ops, and even a few career criminals, the Security Team has the skill set to handle most any emergency—hostage rescue, manhunts, intelligence/espionage, recon, covert ops, direct action, sabotage and demolition, unconventional warfare and counter-insurgency/foreign internal defense. On the daily, however, they tend to function more like bodyguards and security guards at a museum—yes ma’am, we know you’re very upset, no ma’am, you can’t go talk to the scientists right now, they’re very busy. They’re typically the field agents the general public is most likely to see and interact with, and as such deescalation, diplomacy, and good PR skills are just as important to them as actual combat skills, if not more so. While they can and do see actual combat situations, it’s a point of pride among most of the team how rarely they have to fire a weapon. The trigger happy tend not to last.

    Since they are not technically a military organization of their own, the security team has no official ranking, though members from military backgrounds often keep their ranks and titles. Officially, all members of the security team are simply agents, like the rest of the crew, while the agent in charge is the team lead. In emergency situations, agents typically make whoever has most seniority their temporary lead if the actual lead is unavailable, though they always, always defer to the medical staff.

    Security agents are typically only armed with their sidearm of choice and a utility or combat knife. Other weapons are carried as the situation calls for it.

    Security agents specialties can include, but are not limited to;
    Known crisis responders
    Police
    Black ops
    Military



Making the Character

We want at least one or two chunky paragraphs for each section in History and personality, the rest of the CS we expect to be moderately brief- more is always welcome.

When it comes to pictures we prefer realistic illustration, but if you would like to use photographs feel free. What is important is communicating who you are playing. If you would like to post something other than a portrait for your PC or NPC's pictures that is okay too. If you would like to add a written appearance section to the Biometrics tab, please feel free.

Our aim is to take our concept and our mission seriously but create characters that are fun, eccentric, and lovable. We’re looking for characters that are ultimately competent and unquestionably good at their job, but is maybe a weirdo you wouldn’t want to hang out with after work. Or would. The conversation’s usually interesting, after all. Think a Sherlock Holmes or Ellie Wood or Tony Stark--talented, competent, and just plain weird. This goes for mission control as well!

When filling out the Home tab please feel free to create strange and inventive human societies- some of which may have been removed from earth contact for hundred of years. As Dm's we kept our contributions some what vanilla, so please feel free to bring something wild to the table. If you would like to have an npc from somewhere you think warrants a Home section to this bio please add one!

    Specialty: Tech agent
    Background: Remote pilot, security, scouting/hazops
    Full Name: Kevin Harley Star
    Nickname/Alias: Some call him Kevkev. A few also call him Faceman, for obvious reasons.
    Age: 22
    gender identity: Male.
    Date of Birth: May tenth
    Hair Color:Red, supposedly.
    Eye Color: Green, but you can't prove it.
    Height: 4,6. He normally wears something that adds a few inches, though.
    Weight: 148 pounds or so.
    Build: Skinny and lean, but you can't tell.
    Body Modifications: He has Neurolink implants because of his job, but aside from that, he just has a rainbow barcode tattoo on his face.
    Notable Features:He is always, always, ALWAYS wearing a space suit, making it impossible to see his face or anything else. And that's if he's there in person. Most of the time, he's mind-linked to one of his robotic bodies, patrolling by proxy. It makes confirming that little rumor about a scar on the side of his head really hard.

    Specialty: Engineering
    Background: R(obtics).A(eronautics).M(echatronics). as a prosthesis developer and robotics engineer

    Full Name: Pier Santana

    Age: 29
    Gender Identity: Male
    Date of Birth: 03/17/6940
    Hair Color: Brown
    Eye Color: Brown
    Height: 5'9"
    Weight: 158 lbs
    Build: Broad shoulders and a sturdy frame. Not an Olympian, but fit enough for field work. Decent muscle build up, but no defined, ‘supermodel’ abs.

    Body Modifications: Upper left shoulder has a round socket, usually filled with an external (what other kind is there?) robotic arm for manipulation. Also serves as a connection point for the neural connections needed for more maneuverable exo gear.

    Notable Features: His lower left face has burns and scar tissue from an accident involving a blowtorch and high disregard for safety protocol. After gaining a healthy respect for protective equipment after that experience, he has no other marks of lasting damage. When not wearing his excursion gear (see pic), he wears an olive green jumpsuit and ballistic goggles.

  • spacediva (2).jpg
    spacediva-2-jpg.395017

    Specialty: Tech + comms
    Background: Hardlight "Mesh Head," Daredevil Exo-videographer, street racer/baby driver.
    Full Name
    Ji-Eun Moon
    Nickname/Alias: June, Junebug, Moonbeam, Junemoon, Moonmoon.

    Age: 26
    gender identity: Female
    Date of Birth: 11.22
    Hair Color: Naturally Black, though currently dyed "Stardust Blonde"
    Eye Color: Dark Brown, but she does own a pair of holographic contact lenses to suit her whims.
    Height: 5'7
    Weight: 134
    Build:
    Lithe, compact fame with slender curves.


    Body Modifications: Unlike a lot of Mesh Heads, June has a relatively low amount of augmentation. She is, however, a walking Hardlight thanks to a pair of endpoint modules on either side of the nape of her neck and another duo ringing the outside of her wrists like bracelets. You think you may have also caught an aftermarket interface port aka "Hacker Jack" behind her ear. But you know, given how small the thing is, maybe it's just a bio-chip. They use those to help monitor colonists' vitals in the Sol system, right?
    Notable Features: Ji-Eun takes her fashion queues largely from 20th century Science Fiction movies and the bold ingenues of the old Space Frontier Era. Almost all of her clothing has been upcycled or made from recycled materials and if you can get her to sit down for a hot minute, she'll proudly explain the story behind each piece. While on the job, she dons more practical jumpsuits or legging and tunic or mini dress separates, but there are also mod party dresses, crop tops and iridescent jeans in her quickly rotating closet. After an embarrassing incident in which a candid photo was published to a popular gawker blog, June won't leave her residence without her hair styled in some way. Fortunately, June is relatively low-maintenance in her cosmetics routine. Eyeliner, lip balm and sometimes a swipe of eye shadow are the finishing touches to a light foundation.

  • Miranda_Menendez2.jpg

    Specialty: Science Agent - Field Planetologist
    Background: Exoplanetary Explorer
    Full Name: Miranda Citlali Aaliya Menendez
    Nickname/Alias: Miranda, Mirri

    Age: 36*
    Gender Identity: Female
    Date of Birth: October 9
    Hair Color: Black
    Eye Color: Gold
    Height: 5'11"
    Weight: 195 lbs [1g]
    Build: Curvaceous & Muscular

    Body Modifications:
    -numerous genetic recombination treatments across decades of life, resulting in an organism that is quite far removed from the one Miranda was born as.
    -Secondary pair of arms, slightly smaller than Miranda's primary arms and grown from a hybrid insectoid-mammalian tissue, joined to her torso right below her primary arms
    -augmented senses, including modified eyes able to see into multiple spectra of light, augmented hearing able to increase or decrease in sensitivity as need be, augmented sense of smell with heightened sensitivity and precision, electroreceptivity, magnetoreceptivity
    -prehensile tail: 1.5 meters in length, densely packed with muscle and a xenoskeletal lattice allowing limited manipulation of the tail's shape for better grip or manipulation
    -prehensile feet: substantial restructuring to the feet - digits on the toe have been lengthened and an opposing digit have been added, allowing for firm grip and limited manipulation
    -suite of genetic optimizations allow Miranda to heal rapidly from both minor and major trauma, provided she does not take too much harm too quickly
    -cybernetic modifications including a cerebral-neural interface colloquially known as a 'cortical insert' and entoptic displays for interfacing with the insert and Commonwealth-based technology

    Notable Features:
    -Miranda's skin cells contain chromatophores that allow her to actively change her skin color: Miranda will often 'reset' her skin tone to its original brown color but can take on solid colors or match her background as needed, with the previous pattern remaining until consciously changed. With concentration, Miranda can even conjure tattoo-like designs on her skin, although without conscious effort these quickly fade into indistinct patterns that are erased whenever she 'cleans the slate.'
    -*Miranda is biologically analogous to a twenty-five year old in peak physical condition due to multiple rejuvenation and recombination treatments, and at least one major body reconstruction
    -Miranda's movements tend toward the direct, the sustained, and the light: Miranda steps and gestures lightly, decisively, and with spare grace.
    -Miranda requires clothing tailored to her specific morphology and can frequently be found wearing nanofabricated smart-fabric clothing able to adjust its fit, color, and texture based on Miranda's whims, but is used to a variety of different survival gear and exosuits for hostile environments, and will dress in the fashions of the Kollontai Commonwealth for formal occasions.

    Specialty: Material and interiors consultant and Cmmd Hekkiah's personal assistant.
    Background: Structural and Industrial Engineer
    Full Name: Goodwin Jackson
    Nickname/Alias:[/B] Goody

    Age: 26
    gender identity: Male
    Date of Birth: celebrates in May (A Gemini)
    Hair Color: black
    Eye Color: Nope
    Height: 6'3”
    Weight: 180 lb
    Build: He's shaped like a dorito

    Body Modifications:Extensive. Goody is the genetic standard Jiian Shock trooper. These soldiers are custom engineered to grow so that they fit the various implants. The Jiian style of genetic engineering involves genetic simplification so if a trait is not require phenotypically it is removed genetically- these drastic edits result in in a genome that is no longer recognizable as human by standard scanners. Goody has had numerous treatments to remove his Jiian implants save for his face and the computer hardware.
    Notable Features: His face looks like daft punk. What up. He's also covered in geometric tattoos with heavy black work. He prefers to communicate with Ionian sign language, however he also has and uses an artificial voice he's constantly tweaking.
