Kestrel's affairs, such as they were, had been handled with neat and taciturn efficiency. At least, once the embargo was lifted. The political situation wasn't something she was an expert in, or in a position to do much about. Still, the news of the Waning Stars/Archyss Principality conflict was...

@ManofManyRoles Once handed a flyer, or several flyers as the case might be, Sarah dropped her gaze to read the contents before glancing up once more. A second was all it took to 'memorize' the contents, of course, and she could spend the time thinking over those contents while keeping an eye...

August 24, 2387 1611 hrs Stardate 64645.3196 Starbase 925 (Anakin) Wolf 359 Memorial Wreckyard USS Athena Boarding Area @Nuitari Delphiki The captain, of course, needed no introduction. Kimberly's smile was wide, earnest but she stood at attention as the captain inspected them. "And you...

August 24, 2387 1605 hrs Stardate 64645.3196 Starbase 925 (Anakin) Wolf 359 Memorial Wreckyard USS Athena Boarding Area Coming up next in line, the dark-haired Operations Officer hefted her luggage bag and watched the exchange between the Master Chief and the large Samoan man with interest...

Just like that, an answer to her unvoiced questions. Sarah Kennedy eyed the super mutant warily. The hat and the beard were highly uncharacteristic in her experience, as was the 'playing nice' he seemed to be doing. She should prioritize attention to 'Gramps' as the significantly greater...

The ride over from Staten Island wasn't bad. For most people, 'not bad' meant avoiding sea sickness or ancient boats not breaking down or a stray wave dumping them in the water. For her, 'not bad' meant she didn't have to shoot any of the highly enthusiastic sealife that discouraged visitors...

Kestrel flopped backwards onto the gym map in a spray of sweat. Panting, she grabbed a nearby towel she'd left lying on the floor for just this purpose. A dab here and there got the sweat off her face or at least out of her eyes. Then she rolled back onto her feet in one smooth continuous...

Vruthra of the Urbrord Camp @Knight boi As Hugo was in the process of heading out of town, an orc was on her way in. The sight of an armor clad warrior, complete with helmet, axes and a great big sword drew her attention and she grinned in fond memory. It'd been a while since she'd seen a...

@Vudukudu Clad in her armored environmental suit, Kestrel took a step forward and then another. It felt strange to walk. Mostly because the implant those aliens had put in her all those years ago had replaced her nervous system, which among other things meant that her conception of pain (and...

@strawbqby The cute sunburned brunette had to go and ruin a first impression by going for Kestrel's gun. Thankfully, her reaction time was- ...Well, that pretty much confirmed the odds of at least a concussion. In the length of a blink, the girl had disarmed her and Kestrel's hand grasped at...

Kestrel Cavanaugh woke, laid out on the ground at the end of a long furrow. As her eyes blearily tried to focus, her equally worn-out brain struggled to get itself back online and process her circumstances. She'd been in a crash. The ship was crashing. Critical damage to the engine had...

Chise Cantori Klaret While a collection of humans and elves milled about the marketplace, a rather lovely carriage rolled on by, meandering its way through the crowded streets at a at-times glacial pace. Thankfully, the passengers didn't particularly mind the wait. Assuming they were in a...

Moire the cat certainly appreciated the head pats. Moire the Shapeshifter seemed to appreciate the strength of his surprised reaction and she grinned at his efforts to put a sentence together. "I get that a lot, you know. If I were sensible, I'd stop doing it but my Mum told me I had a...

Waking up was an ordeal, but Ibrahim was used to the rough treatment by now. A year he'd been locked away inside this...whatever this American place was. A year of testing, prodding and dehumanizing treatment. There were guards, and occasionally scientists, but both sets seemed to treat him...

While Nori warmed himself by a fire, an orange tabby cat trotted up to the same flame and promptly sprawled next to the cobblestones to soak up some heat for a few minutes. If pet, she would purr amicably. But after enough warmth to loosen the chill of the long journey here, the cat stretched...

The prospects faced by the Ambivalence were daunting. Tethers had been attached to their ship. Raiders were on their way. This ship lacked the defensive anti-intruder measures Kestrel had grown up with, making their defense plan entirely based on crew response with crew armaments. Had she...

Silas' announcement to get EVA suits on and stop by the armory hadn't been necessary for Kestrel. As soon as the ship took a hit and things started going sideways, she anticipated the need. Thankfully, her environmental suit was easily donned and she was always armed. But she did stop by the...

Clarissa Rhimes et. al. Traveling by montage was definitely the way to go. Clarissa started off taking a flying whale from Johannesburg to New Orleans, wound up on a train headed to New York, caught a flight to Austin, Texas but ended up landing in Neo Austin instead which gave her the option...

@ThePowerCosmic The arrival of Nav Officer Nalaak found Dr. Beroya in the middle of inspecting the power cable joining one of the med bay diagnostic beds to ship's power. Hunched low over the exposed panel, the Mandalorian's armor might have blended in, if it didn't favor purple hues over the...

The Farewell Ceremony The farewell ceremony, for Jain, was well attended. In her case, it helped that the chairman of the Intergalactic Zoology Society and a senior director for the Republic Survey Corps followed the Mandalorian around, introducing her to other officials. Unlike the Jedi, who...
