Mireille Asheville came from a family of wealthy colonial administrators, but had big dreams beyond even her considerable means. Imagine her delight when she won the Megacredit lottery! She immediately purchased a decommissioned S-class scout ship and some gear, then posted on the planetary ad boards looking for an experienced pilot and first mate. A rugged man named Ulf responded, and fit the bill, so she immediately hired him!

Hired by Mireille as executive officer and pilot, Roarke "Ulf" Taylor found the rest of the crew in local bars or just hanging out at the starport, and just pocketed the rest of the bonus cash. He wants everyone to think that he is a Special Forces Military Veteran, but he was really just running the security department of a local tug that also acted as a customs cutter. The closest he came to combat was when his ship was occasionally dispatched to catalog contraband. However, despite his equivocations, he is trained, and can shoot straight as well as pilot a ship.
Sally Pantro 314UPLSL1PT. A lab-grown chimpanzee raised to sentience by Elexa Labs' Uplift Division, 'Sally' and her cohort were bred to provide heavy labor for a high-G mining colony. She was freed by one of Elexa's scientists who had had a coup de conscience, and makes a living as an itinerant ship engineer. As such she is the only person besides Roarke who actually knows how to operate a starship.

Robert "Hob" Hobart, petty thief, pickpocket and card sharp, is as likely to grab the kitty and run as he is to stash a cold deck up his sleeve. Hob never stays in one place for long, since the private games that he typically targets are usually hunting for his head soon after he makes his move. Mireille's ship is as good a place as any to dodge his marks even as it piques his curiosity.

Anja Tretiak is a human hybrid bred for survival in the blasted wastes of her home planet. Desperate and tired of eking out a bare sustenance as a nomadic scavenger, Anja stowed away on board a merchant ship, and survived by doing odd jobs whenever the opportunity arose. She was the bouncer working the door when Roarke started hiring "ships crew", and leapt at the opportunity.

Yodel, whose real name is untranslatable and untransliteratable, was part of a criminal gang on her homeworld. As punishment for an infraction, she was 'sold' to a long-haul colonization mission as security/cannon fodder, her brain implanted with behavior inhibitors. Befriending the colony's medic, she managed to disable the lock on her personality and has since made her way back to civilization, bent on exacting revenge from the gang that tried to dispose of her.

Fantastic! If I could get myself to paint, I think all I would do is paint individual minis and corresponding write-ups. So much fun. Also, I am going to make my own crew for sure. Although I will probably just use Infinity minis.
