Character sheet updated also created the character in Hephaistos but not sure how to share it on the boards. here is the overview for the submission: Character Name: Velocity Fairweather
As a child, she was fascinated by the stars. She would sit at night gazing skyward hoping to one day fly across the vast universe. This led her to eventually learn to pilot. She read everything she could and practiced on anything that moved. She got pretty good, and into lots of trouble as she had usually had to steal things to “feed her dream” She got rather good at piloting anything that moved, hoverbikes, interceptors, small freighters, Steward’s police vehicles.
After busting out of the Brig Velocity tried to go legit for a spell. That’s how she ended up working for EJ Corp. with a bit of forged resume. -Describe three memories that your character has. They don't have to be elaborate, but they should provide some context and flavor. 1 As little girl in the orphanage at Absalom station she would stare out into space mesmerized by the stars and all the possibilities that were out there. She would dream about flying through space pushing the limits of whatever ship she was piloting. She would get into trouble numerous times for this, as she was usually avoiding her chores or tricking others into doing them for her. As simple as this was, it is probably the most precious memory for her. 2 During her “rebellious” early teen years she snuck out of the orphanage and headed to a docking bay to get a close look at a real starship. She managed to get near the mining freighter docked there but was caught. She actually thought she was going to get sent to prison. She was escorted back to the orphanage and bumped into a dwarf that was there talking to the head mistress. She was quickly ushered off and was never formally introduced. But she didn’t get away empty handed. She did manage to pilfer a spare key card he was carrying. This key card would later be a source of several adventures. 3 Probably the most recent memory, Velocity was no longer in the orphanage and had already been getting into trouble. (Not like a rebellion sort of way but more like a petty thief). Like that one time she managed to make off with a hoverbike and took it out for a joyride, and those flashing lights on it were pretty cool as well. Well, if you haven’t guessed it yet, Velocity didn’t exactly get away with that hoverbike theft, she was caught and ended up in the Brig aboard The Stewards flagship “The Steadfast”. From there, she was to be sent to a penal station for 5 years. But her sentence was cut short after escaping the brig with the help of a new friend by the name Xegas Xervanas, a young Steward who’d grown disenchanted with his career path. In conversations with you, Xegas became enthralled with the idea of the smuggler life; he broke you out of the brig and became a smuggler himself, under the codename Jinx. Although you’ve heard Jinx works as a transport pilot now, you haven’t seen him since. After that run-in, Velocity was on the run, hoping from ship to ship across the Pact Worlds, looking for easy marks, pilfering credits, getting mixed up in gambling rings. Lots of stuff and never really staying in one place very long. Eventually she managed to forge a resume to get into EJ Corp as a pilot. She is a relatively new hire only been with the company for maybe 3 years now but her new low profile was providing the cover she needed to stay under the Radar of the Stewards.
As she heads toward the Lorespire Complex, Velocity continuously is checking out various places some of them she hasn't seen in a long time, others are new. eventually reaching her destination, she stops a moment to take in the sight. She never been in this are of the station before. ya know, they say that some of the early starfinder's left when the Collective took over. glancing around to see if anyone is listening, she adds in a whisper, they say they are the voidwalkers Velocity approaches the desk Hey there, I am so sorry to bring this news. but there was an... ahh... "accident" at the docks. And well, Mr Duravor was... ah... killed. she fumbles with the right way to say it. but trying to remain optimistic. On the plus side, he sent us here.
sensing that the Lt. isn't going to arrest her, Velocity makes her way to the rest of the group. thanks for the info, I think we should be getting on her way. hoping to usher the group off to the side trying avoid a confrontation with the Lt. coming up beside T'zor leaning closer, they are not to keen on bounty hunter types, best not mention it any more. she whispers
Velocity isn't all that thrilled about the authorities. hoping that she isn't recognized. she avoids eye contact with Lieutenant Canber. She moves off to the side trying to pretend she is just one of the crowd. damn, now what am I gonna do. he was my ticket to something better. she mumbles glancing at Duravor's body.
Velocity gives a smile like she just heard a somewhat numerous joke, oh honey, that's cute. Sure I'll let you be co-pilot . She was about to say something else, when the captain came on. With a pop of her gum, we're here, awesome
Stepping out on the docking bay, Velocity gives a stretch, ah, just like I never left, same ole propoganda, same ole oblivious people, same ole gangs looking to fight. she says as says taking in the scene. . She slips by a few people, slipping something into her pocket. She then prepare to pull her pistol. [B] time to meet the welcoming committee, yo guys ready to some fun?[b] she says to the others from the shuttle.
Velocity listens to the responses, unsure what to make of them. she subtly rolls her eyes at the princess remarks. be careful what ya wish for she mutter in response. well me? I am also here to meet someone. helped me out of a jam, so to speak. guess I need to repay the favor. unless he wants a little more than I am willing to give of course. And to catch up with some old friends I grew up with there. glancing at T'zor impressed withe the adventure idea. now that is something I can get on board with. I know just the perfect pilot to join ya. she answers indicating herself.
The wild colored hair girl stays pretty quiet. she does laugh at the young mechanic's antics and seems pretty interested in the droid thing, especially after seeing it speak, well sort of speak. she gets up and looks about for a drink, she seems to stay away from the military types like a petty thief would avoid law enforcement. grabbing her drink, she takes a sip, not wanting to pry, but what brings you folks to Absalom station? she asks of everyone
Sitting off to the side apparently watching everyone around, is a young lady with mostly red hair but with tints of blue, she is dressed in a dark bue flight suit with a holstered pistol on her hip. she sits legs crossed leaning back shewing her bubble gum, the occasional pop of a bubble is heard. She is rather quiet for the moment, surveying the other passengers.
Velocity had spent time tinkering with the com-link some more, trying to come up with an approximate time frame the theft probably took place based on inventory time stamps. She will then tuck the device away before heading out with the others hanging a bit with Frak. So you ever pilot a ship before?
Giving Bagit a sympathetic ear, if it helps, every war usually begins with attempted peace talks. as far as honor, well, I haven't acted with honor most of my life. but I respect you for having those principles. I will do my best to give you targets to shoot at.
Velocity tries to hack into the comm link she acquired
Once clear of the Manu's residence. Velocity looks to the goblin. So, your with us now. how about we spends some time later to hear your story, like how ya got here and anything else you are willing to share. giving the goblin some time to answer, she later looks to Bagit, something troubling you? she asks with legitimate concern in her tone
Velocity pulls Cas aside, perhaps this comm link he's talking about may help us. maybe we should try and locate that? she whispers. Turning to the suspect, Since you are in charge of the inventory, and your comm link has the info about said items, then perhaps a little investigation as to where that is would be in order. perhaps we can take your information, and begin a search for you missing Comm link. Velocity is working to diffuse a tense situation and end what will most likely become a stand-off and accomplish nothing.
Velocity, was trying to help, but she was doing a lot of "things" but really doing not much of anything. she was watching Cas as she "worked" censored thoughts
Velocity almost immediately pipes up and Bagit's question regarding the weapon. its not mine, I don't think so at least. she says. but then Bagit mentions the person she also noticed. no, we should follow, see if there are accomplices, not let him know we are on to him. she whispers back trying to not bring attention to the conversation. I have to get something from the med-bay Velocity says as she gets up and heads past the suspicious person, bumping into him and trying to pilfer something that may help.
Velocity looks about wondering what to do, this wasn't exactly the exciting lifestyle she was hoping for, but then again, technically speaking, she was considered a criminal. Velocity wandered back to the kitchen, I'll help with that, I really can't do much else really. Velocity goes over beside the human, so what do I do hun?
Velocity was not sure how to respond, she did not want to dance with that guy, but Bagit came to "save the day" I really would not want to deny Bagit fun as well. maybe another time. she says trying to politely decline and decides to enjoy her time with Cas. she does give an appreciative smile to Bagit.
you'll do fine. its all about having fun. Velocity says to encourage Cas, dragging him by the hand to the dance floor. As she is dancing with Cas, she glances at Bagit, Come on Solider-boy, you ain't gettin off that easy! Get yer butt out here with us.
ok so I thought about this.
