Okay, so I thought this might be a good time to discuss our basic character concepts and the roles our PCs will cover. Myr'iad (Myr for short) is really focused on piloting for ship-based roles. In combat, they focus on mobility and taking full advantage of the Trick Attack. I also put ranks into Acrobatics, Athletics, Bluff, Computers, Culture, Engineering, Medicine, Perception, Piloting, Sleight of Hand, Stealth, and Survival.
I also figure that Myr can provide cover fire with a sniper rifle when I get enough credits for one.

K'tzz ... I am here. Greetings fellow sentients!

X'Tack will probably tend to alternate between ranged and melee in combat. Outside of combat he doesn't have a great deal of useful skills as far as knowledge etc. - I think he will be somewhat naïve and sheltered.
On board a ship he should be an effective gunner, unless someone else would prefer that role. I have given him a rank in piloting, so could also be a backup pilot (if it makes sense to have backups for the ship roles).
I'm find with us knowing each other or not. X'Tack is a friendly fellow but may come across as somewhat abrasive. He is relatively recently arrived at Absalom Station, but the time frame is loose enough for him to have met people.

I'm pretty sure that Shessalla will end up in the role of "Facilitator" on the ship (that sounds MUCH more egalitarian than Captain, doesn't it? :-))
Obviously, as an Envoy she intends to function largely as the face of the group. Her role in combat will definitely be primarily a support/buffer character although hopefully she'll do enough damage with her long arm to at least contribute a little to the putting down of the bad guys.
I'm one of the people who thinks an Envoy looks a little weak at first glance but hopefully I'm missing something(s).
Edit: Changed avatar. If you don't look closely those could almost be antennae :-)

Very cool!
So Myr'iad (had to use a goofy spelling because Myriad was already being used as an alias lol), is not good at reading/understanding emotions and gender identities. Myr'iad sees themselves as a collect of souls simultaneously sharing the same host body as opposed to the idea that an android body hosts a single soul for a time and then when that soul moves on... hosting another. And as such prefers to be referred to as They and/or Them as opposed to the usual gender identities of their progenitor race (humanity) and will refers to themselves as We or Us.
This is going to be a challenging role play experience I think to try, but I think it will be fun!

I have a format for all my PCs that I use, although I really need to figure out how to code with actual 'fill in the blank' tabs. That would make it much easier... lol. Looking forward to getting into the mix of things! Although, I think I'm going to reregister this PC into my -702 spot. There's a Boon available for new Starfinder PCs, but can only be assigned to your -701 SFS PC...
*EDIT*
Okay, created new Alias SFS with -702 number. This will be the one I'm using from here on out!

Thanks for the heads-up, I have done the same.

I'm probably going to keep looking for a better avatar to fit this character, haven't quite found the best one yet and there are so many! I like this one so far, because I finally saw John Wick 2 tonight and I finally found the look I'm trying to find for my android! Ruby Rose in that movie is damn near the perfect representation for the idea I had in my mind.
