Boris Mbtsu

Boris Evenkye Mbtsu

Boris is born and raised in the Bowman Belt Cooperative tribe of asteroid belt miners.
(Equivalent to one term as Belter, Miner) Boris enlists in the Imperial Navy to get money for college to do formal study of Astro-Geo Physics. (Since his family is from the working class and he got a bit lazy studying for his exams, he didn't qualify for a scholarship.) Boris learns to work hard in the Imperial Navy, and because of his experience growing up, he is a natural starship mechanic. The Navy loves him in the form of a promotion. Boris gains a contact (Navy Master Chief "takes him under his wing"). Boris wants to go to college, but he finds he loves the Navy life; he re-enlists in the Engineering dept. within the Mechanic Rating. He is given a new assignment (gains Comms-1). He gets promoted again, but for some reason he is discharged from the Imperial Navy (fails re-enlistment roll). He leaves the service with 13,000cr and Scientific Instruments.

Boris returns home to find that his tribe has prospered; he is sponsored to the University of Rhylanor where he graduates with full Honors. He receives a Masters of Science in Geology (Planetology-1). He returns to Bowman Belt wanting to go prospecting with his tribe, but he does not have enough stake to buy into an equity share or get his own equipment and go independent. He enlists in the scout service (hoping to perhaps get stationed at the local scout base).

In his first term in the Scouts, Boris is assigned to the Stellar Analysis arm of Survey division. He is given a special assignment (Specialist-Astrogation-1). Promotion. He re-enlists in the Scouts and gets advanced training (JoaT-1). Eager to get back into asteroid mining, Boris musters out of the Scouts. He gains a Scout S starship and 40,000cr.

Boris is now a Prospecting Belter.

Harcourt Fenton Mudd (Harry)

Harry (Harcourt Fenton Mudd) the Pirate

Harry slogged his way up from the bottom of the free trader merchants as a direct enlistee. When he retired from the Merchants' Guild he came away with a forty year old Fast Trader (type A3Mk2), a few bucks, and several enemies within the Merchants' Guild who tried to keep him from drawing a retirement check after all the faithful years as a member. Contracts started drying up and for various reasons Harry became sick of scrabbling around for a pitiful living. He became a pirate and is just starting to rake in some nice revenue. Some of the other pirates are starting to be irritated with his successes. The Imperial Navy is also thinking of sending a few Patrol Cruisers to patrol some of the jump points into and out of several systems in the subsector. So far no one has been able to catch Harry in his various schemes.

Georgina Harrison

Character: Georgina Harrison

          Georgina has recovered her memory and understands that she is free from the "School", but there is one more personal mission to perform. Unfortunately, she has needed much cash for all the toys that she is accumulating, and the last "upgrade" (chip implant computer) she had financed by Captian Mudd had a nasty little "slave" nano-virus the antidote to which remains in the possession of the Captain she must serve. She despises Captain Mudd, and is angry at herself for getting caught. She has no choice but to serve the perverse desires of her Pirate Captain. If given a chance to get free, she will be ever so helpful, then the death will come.

MS "Oregon Trail" Colonial Transport, 200dt, TL11+

200dt Colonial Transport, TL11

This vessel was purchased surplus (50%) by Clive Masterson Sr. His first transport contract (while the bank negotiations were still not complete, ie "under the table") was a group of colonists from Earth to the Reavers' Deep. The low berths were sold to this wealthy group of colonists to augment the new colony's medical equipment. Clive used this money for some "upgrades". As the years have gone by, other mods have been made. Here is the accumulated value of this 60 year old (but mint) starship. Clive's grandson, Clive III, will some day be inheriting the vessel and he is thinking of converting the new main cargo deck into a passenger area and restaurant when "he's in charge".

MS "Peace Maker" Transport, a converted 300dt sys. def. boat

Converted Mk3 ANTIQUE SYSTEMS DEFENSE BOAT

After Fourth frontier war, this Mk.3 system defense boat (along with many more obsolete vessels) were scrapped due to pressure from reduced peace-time  navel budgets.
Most Mk3 System Defense boats had the Particle beam weapon and hull stealth mods removed before sale to salvage.

Lascalles Merchant Co., LLC. purchased five Mk2s and one Mk3 to convert to system transports. The Mk3 was later resold to a business partner as part of a retirement buy-out package.

This vessel has had the main power plant upgraded, a area effect jump drive has been added and some interior remodeling done for fuel tankage etc.

The three officers each get their own cabin; the two crewmen share one cabin double occupancy. The owner of the ship remains at port in semi-retirement (Treat as if the ship is a subsidized merchant--Captain Applethorn keeps half of all profits, but must pay for operating costs.). The crew has cashed in all ship shares and an investment trust is formed with the crew members sharing proportionally in any increase or loss. They start with 3,734,000CrImp. Company is named Tau Ceti Merchant Investment Company (TCMC) after the last ship they all flew on together as crew before this new business.

Total Base Hull: {700dt + 300dt + 1800dt + 100 + 700dt = 3600dt, 1,782.03McrImp}

Current configuration has the vessel overloaded and the J-drive re-calibrated for J5 performance. The base hull of 1000dt adds the clamped tanks (1800dt), 100dt Fuel Shuttle, and 700dt of frame mounted cargo; performance = Jump-5. Sometimes the cargo is reduced to carry fighters or other craft to dissuade piracy.

          Fuel usage as follows: 
Typical fueling operation is to remain in low orbit above a gas giant while fuel shuttle scoops fuel. After refueling the vessel will proceed in-system, if necessary.
Maneuver performance reduced to Thrust = 1.

Load-out is 3,600dt.
