At least until it was turned over to the Admiralty Court in 295, after the SNF seized it for smuggling. Since Indrani has a share in it, she was probably involved in the investigation and seizure.

Reven has a share also - there's our connection.

In and out, back and forth.

Could be in the same convoys for some jobs, particularly with the recent fighting.

Post-flight bars. Karaoke night? Both had to go to the same police station to rescue crew members after a dust-up between crews?

One of you was dating a family member of the other? Or you were both dating the same person?

Sudden mutual interest in "Notes for Astrogators v299.1" and attended the same conference

Both took up jogging round the starport at 4am

The world is your shellfish!

So now you have a mutual reason for meeting...what is it that you did together that got you a skill you wouldn't otherwise have had?

That would explain why you changed jobs! It was all looking dodgy

I know that the "Belter Navy" is really a group of many smaller defence forces, space forces, etc...but for convenience - one name here.

Tiberius has an Ally called Tansu Cotli (Described in detail elsewhere).

(Please add description, property, etc. as you see fit on that thread)

And with all the characters declared, I hereby proclaim the colleague connection bidding process officially open!

Remember that you can each connect to only two other members of the party. n.b. Given Noor's background, she may have no pre-existing direct connections (Depending on how Monsieur Rose wants to play her) - in which case I'll have to think of something equivalent.

Reven and Indrani - via Queen of the Belt

Reven has been ferrying legal documents around the system and frequenting starports; staying at port hotels. So, he could have met anyone - or this is good too- mutual interest in "Notes for Astrogators v299.1" and attended the same conference.



has anyone else paired up ?

Noor ran an investigation around 290. Maybe she enlisted the help of Tiberius the Agent?

Arnwulf

Unlikely to have made many contacts during a marine career so having connected with Tiberius during police days it is probable my second connection is during my term four merchant career.

I have no direct ties to the QoTB. I don't think I made any notes what was the name of the craft. Could all those finishing in Merchant careers have been on the same ship?

Pranit

I think a connection with Indrani is a easy match. Working together in a fleet training exercise, we could have met first on comms then at a bar later when we recognize each others voices. I think that is a easy in for another navel skill.

Also I believe a a match with Noor is able. He could have been on the Vikant on a political inspection and we 'hit it off' so to speak. Its a good explanation for a personal or admin skill

What say you two?

Also I would like to put my bid in for the Bleeding edge TL12 Vacc Suit, with my Vacc-3 skill I think I can make the most of it.

I think I would also be interested in the skills Admin-1 and Navigation-0, but I am not married to these two.

I think I read that BwT posted 'the bidding is open' for the skills and equipment list.

So I would like to go for the following:

Network (merchant ) +1 in my character generation he had a life event which created a merchant contact so that fits.

Arnwulf

Melee +1 comes from his marines cqb and his athletics boxing.

A random second skill.

Tiberius

To Noor: sure we collaborated on an investigation circa 290. Can you give me any specifics? 'The Sentinels' (Interstellar Intelligence) generally work in corporate, banking, frauds, 'FBI' type stuff.

During that term he went 'above and beyond the call of duty', so at personal risk to himself what did we do?

As a result of the teamwork, he gained Electronics (comms) 1

Bidding It makes sense to bid for the Contact (Forensics) as an in character link and to suggest he could learn Advocate and Diplomat from his work related activities.

How about:
Tracking assets of the sponsors of one of the Belt's Rebels (Iku Pupa) that was preying on the shipping between Touchdown and Sapphire.
