v: respect existence | the crew
Captain Truck Ross
Maintains the balance between legitimate and illegitimate business, with final say over all jobs. An unshakably good and moral man who shares very little of his past, yet manages to win the trust of most people he meets. A good-natured enigma.
Bridget Sousa, Navigation & Diplomacy
Works out the kinks of smuggling alongside legitimate cargo (and occasionally passenger) transport. Intimate knowledge of bribery, flattery, blackmail, and getting the crew where they need to go, one way or another. Cynical, with a demanding and sometimes abrasive personality, Bridget nonetheless will defend her crewmates to the death.
Stas Petrenko, Quartermaster
Stas manages supplies, does all the cooking, and mediates disputes and disagreements before they get bad enough to involve the Captain. Known for enjoying the local hospitality of every port, he believes in experiencing everything life has to offer; he is an unfailing optimist. Stas and Boomerang share the same religious faith but hold very different beliefs.
Teresa “Boomerang” Delgado, Engineer & Enforcer
Aside from the Captain, Boomerang is the ship’s strongest fighter, although she would rather spend time wrestling with mechanical problems than with people. Her Catholic faith gives her a strong moral compass, but she also has a tendency to judge others--particularly Stas--by her own standards. Boomerang prefers the company of the Captain, as Bridget’s sharp tongue always manages to hit on her insecurities, and Stas’s combination of hedonism and unfailing kindness can make her uncomfortable.
Molly McKie, Stowaway & Anthropologist
An as-yet unknown quantity to the crew, who know they have a stowaway but have disagreed about whether to track her down or simply leave her be.
