So. Officially shamelessly recruiting for the high-flyin', free-rangin', crew of ******** and happy-housers which will staff a little something like
this. It will be slightly altered(such as getting rid of the ring doodads on the weapons and maybe reshaping the balloon slightly. There will also be two main fuselages connected by an open air, railed walkway so in a way, split the main body in half vertically.
It goes that my character will be the Captain and main mechanic of the ship as she's the one that brought it back to life and put in all the effort to secure it. It's an older model petitioned by the
United Forces during the zenith of Korra's life. After wringing dry every bit of funds on connections she could as the Avatar's sister and presumably a renowned technician, inventor, mechanic, and gem miner, my character(whom for my sanity will be temporarily named Nama) managed to get ahold of it. She got it fully operational, and assembled a small but close crew with a few members being long-time friends and others being picked up along the way.
They now primarily sail the skies around the world, allowing Nama to travel far and wide to work as a commissioned mechanic and to look for precious materials to sell, as well as to occasional ferry or harbor her brother, the Avatar. It has a berth at Ba Sing Se, and a relatively free flight pattern. It goes where it needs to, and allows the crew to also collect funds and expand their wealth.
Basically this is the opportunity to be involved in the plot at random turns, get close to the Avatar, live a free and open lifestyle, and essentially look for treasure.
Needed:A cook - Could be anything. Doesn't matter so long as they can cook.
A weapons/defense/offense specialist -(MoonlightSoyo)- Preferably a firebender with lightningbending skills. The guns on the ship will amplify and direct electrical attacks, and sonic boom type attacks. Waterbenders will be able to fight from the moisture in the atmosphere. Earthbenders can alter the ship's structure but need to bring their own dirt to fight with, although there's a weight limit.
(Soyo has called dibs on the spot and I think she could do wonderfully at it. So this spot is officially taken.)
A navigator - I can foresee this being an airbender, but I couldn't care less. It's up to you. Nama will do a lot of this, but she needs someone who knows the wind currents personally and all that.
Treasurer/Secretary - Someone who budgets the ship's earnings and directs restocking trips and the like. Usually someone smart.
Healer - After a suggestion from Soyo and reconsideration on my part, I've reincluded this job. The gliders used to land are too small to carry two people, and the craft will not always be near a doctor or hospital, so an on-board healer is important. This will likely be a water-bender, but I'm really not picky. I'd like to see someone take this into their own hands.
Miscellaneous - Anyone has the opportunity to submit another job to me. I may have missed something. Or you may have a really great idea. PM me.
I'd like to keep it below six or seven people. But there's room to pitch me anything outside of this. With the four people I already know are in the regular Team Avatar, that makes up to ten passengers with an average of about seven. Team Avatar won't always be involved in the airship, so these spots could really use filling.
Let me know if you're cool with following a give-no-s**t crazy lady!
EDIT: Added in a healer, and the miscellaneous seat.
Also! Yummy's character whom Commands the UF is gonna be an old friend and love interest of my character, and he'll play a huge role in the series of events that got the airship in her hands. We've also decided they met in a military training academy, and he's part of the reason why she isn't under arrest for dropping out of that lifestyle.
