Ivan 'Angry Ivan' Erwin
Uplifted Ape Male age 38 Height: 1.78m [5'8"] Weight 77kg [170 lbs]

UPP: C7A895
Service History: Belter 2 terms Rank 2, Merchant [Free Trader] 3 terms O4
Skills: Brawling /Unarmed Cbt 2, JoT 2, Navigation /Astrogation 2, Pilot [Spacecraft] 2, Vacc Suit 2, Computer 1, Engineer 1, Slug Rifle [ZGWpns] 1, Zero G Environment 1

Credits: Cr 30,000 [guess-timate], Cr 5,000 in 'gold coins'
Equipment:
*Accelerator Rifle, modified for anatomy.
*Combat Snub Pistol [no mods needed]
*Vacc Suit [as well constructed and durable as is available... a salvager's /belter's professional vacc suit. IIRC I paid 20% more than TL to have a hand computer, more armor, self sealing, extended PLSS]
*Hand Computer TL 12, specifically loaded with updates on current trade conditions; Ivan spends time checking with other spacers who've been to the same places and keeping updated on the situations there.
*6 bottles of good Scots whiskey as trade /bribe bait.

Ivan has experienced the worst of the Solomani culture and has no stomach for it. Racism or rabid nationalism of any form immediately offends him. He tries to take people one at a time, but if he finds out that somebody is from SolSec... well, that person may have an 'accident'.

He is a Sancta-Terrist, believing in the sanctity of wild places, especially those that remain on the Great Cradle, Sacred Terra. He is not terribly devout but owns a pendant of Sequoia wood, from Terra itself.

Photos of Ivan from [duh] Planet of the Apes francise.

Homeworld: Avalon /Fahlnar [RD 3238] 574988-C 2 Cp Hi In 324 So

Credits: Cr 30,000, Cr 5,000 in 'gold coins'
Equipment:
*Accelerator Rifle, modified for anatomy.
*Combat Snub Pistol [no mods needed]

Backstory: Ivan Erwin's career began as a Belter in his home system of Avalon, the sub-capital of Solomani holdings in the Deep. A high tech industrial world, Ivan thought that working the belt would keep him out of the factories or drudge labor that his race was often condemned him to, and Solomani Resources of Avalon had a good reputation. That reputation was... limited. While he was trained in the skills needed by a belter, he was only paid 85% of what human made. What more, as he became more experienced, he repeatedly found himself in the role of training his supervisors. After the third such incident, wherein he spent two years training a 20 year old who was then promoted to a crew lead position, he asked his Base Admistrator for a promotion. He was told that he 'wasn't yet ready for promotion'.
Six weeks later, at the end of his current contract, he shipped out on the Free Trader Luck of the Draw, Capt. Durk Winthers, master. He rose steadily from general technician /cargo hand to a bridge officer as his abilities and steadiness in emergencies impressed both the captain and his subsidy owners.

Attitudes and Roleplay Notes: Ivan has experienced the worst of the Solomani culture and has no stomach for it. Racism or rabid nationalism of any form immediately offends him. He tries to take people one at a time, but if he finds out that somebody is from SolSec... well, that person may have an 'accident'.
He is a Sancta-Terrist, believing in the sanctity of wild places, especially those that remain on the Great Cradle, Sacred Terra. He is not terribly devout but owns a pendant of Sequoia wood, from Terra itself.

Jiao Donet van Stoddart

Human female 168cm (5’ 6”) 57kg (125lb)
UPP - 687DE7 Age 34 3 terms Merchant Engineer (O3) Homeworld: Ulm - Magyar 0125 A548666-C

Jiao was assigned to several charter and line ships in her twelve years with Transstar Lines. On one of her charters, she was mugged during a stop. Three of her shipmates, all former military, taught her the finer points of street fighting over the course of the assignment

The last four years of Jiao’s career were frustrating. She transferred to one of the largest ships in the line, with a sterling reputation. Early in her assignment, Jiao fell into a relationship with another officer. Such things were not forbidden, as long as the people involved weren’t in the same chain of command. The relationship ended when her boyfriend abruptly asked for, and received, a transfer to a shore assignment. Jiao had been so smitten that she was written up for poor work – and that turned out to be her undoing. Although she applied herself to her work for three years afterwards, she simply was not offered the Chief Engineer’s course. Finally, she declined to reenlist, and left the company.

Jiao told her family that she still wanted to travel, and she started coreward, securing working passages as she went. She is now between jobs, and looking for the next working passage to anywhere.
