Then...
Hundreds of years ago, the Earth got used up. It could no longer sustain humanity's numbers, so they left. Terraformed a new galaxy to make more Earths.
The central planets made up what's known as the Core. The Core is governed by the Anglo-Sino Alliance whereas the Border systems and those on the Rim governed themselves with more local governments; however, the Alliance waged war to bring everyone under their rule. The Independents (also known as the Browncoats) rose up to fight them and retain their freedom, but even though they put up one hell of a fight, the Alliance won that disagreement due to superior numbers, technology, resources, etc. Some of the Browncoats fell into line. Others? They scattered to the edges of the galaxy to escape the authoritarian reach of the Alliance, taking jobs where they can find them to survive just a little longer.
Now...
It has been six years since the decisive and crushing Battle of Serenity Valley, the "Birthplace of Unity", according to those in the Core. An Alliance deserter, Eric O'Neil, captains a ship named Atlantis. He's got a good crew: a pilot, a mechanic, a doctor, and a couple of fighters. Even managed to pick up one of those rich, Core-types! They currently find themselves under the employ of a fellow named Badger, retrieving specific goods from a derelict ship.

 || CAPTAIN || AGE 34 || MALE || FT86 Optics || ♥ || █▐ x █▐ x Born on Albion, Eric was from a family that made the military their career. His █▐ x father, Colonel by the time he was old enough to enter into service. Though █▐ x Eric was not always the brightest man in a room, he was perceptive, and quick █▐ x to action when it mattered. During his time in the war, Eric began to see what █▐ x the Alliance was truly willing to do. What they were to these people. Though █▐ x when things came down to it, Eric abandoned the Alliance, freeing a brown- █▐ x coat that spared his life. So began his life as a smuggler, and living under the █▐ x radar. Slowly his crew began to grow, and before he knew it, Eric found him- █▐ x self a new family. █▐ x

 || PILOT/SCOUT || AGE 33 || FEMALE || H0ll0wM4n || ♥ || █▐ x █▐ x A soldier without a banner; a stray without a home. Browncoat. Veteran. Out- █▐ x law. The Maverick pilots the Atlantis by her own code of honor; which just so █▐ x happens to be in line with her Captain's. But not even her only superior know █▐ x much about this violent and animalistic woman. Her bestial nature reflected in █▐ x her bouts of silence, and her lethal outbursts. █▐ x
 || MECHANIC || AGE 32 || MALE || blacklitewatts60 || ♥ || █▐ x █▐ x Born on a core world, his family on his mother's side is a famous liquor and █▐ x winemaker, and on his father's side, is military. His upbringing didn't have █▐ x much childhood in it. I mean sure he had friends at school and did go out here █▐ x and there but it was all for show. He was being groomed for something. █▐ x Joining the military following his father he was selected for a squad well- █▐ x trained elite squad. Apart of a group to handle the alliance problems that must █▐ x stay hidden. He is well trained in CQC, interrogation, and firearms[Not too █▐ x great with a long gun.] It was the day his team found something they shouldn't █▐ x something that forced them to disappear. Their last mission was scrubbed █▐ x and the team went M.I.A, after the last mission. Believed to have died due to █▐ x the gases igniting around the compound. His team split up each carrying a █▐ x part of a key to the data they found. Lincoln became a Mechanic he was █▐ x always good with his hands so he started to fix ships.

He kept his past away from his █▐ x new crew, they know he is good at making wines and other spirits as he does █▐ x speak of his family but when asked which Washington clan he comes from he █▐ x always blows off the question or just doesn't answer.

 || FIGHTER || AGE 31 || MALE || Chaosbadger || ♥ || █▐ x █▐ x Harley met Eric while in the war. When the war ended they went their sepa- █▐ x rate ways and Harley had become a mercenary taking any jobs that came his █▐ x way. As his 'career' went on he continued to pass ship to ship until he came █▐ x upon eric and his ship. Eric had a spot for him as a fighter though and that's █▐ x how he ended up on the ship helping eric do runs and other things for some █▐ x not-so-favorable people that existed in the 'verse. The money though was █▐ x pretty good, and the free lodging and food in return for work was also a pret- █▐ x ty good deal if he did say so himself. █▐ x
 || TRUST FUND BABY || AGE 27 || FEMALE || 707sTYPO || ♥ || █▐ x █▐ x Ada had a pretty standard childhood. Y'know, for a spoiled, rich kid. Girl got █▐ x everything she wanted and never had to wonder where her next meal was █▐ x coming from. The state-of-the-art kitchen in her estate on Bellerophon, of █▐ x course! She grew up under the guidance and scrutiny of a number of nannies █▐ x and tutors, but it was only after she reached adulthood that she had a lot of █▐ x contact with her parents. It was then that she was to take everything she'd █▐ x been taught so far and use it all to taking over her parents' legacy. Ada █▐ x learned about all their investments and financial techniques. All the business- █▐ x es they owned and how they ran one of the Core's largest corporations, just a █▐ x couple places down from Blue Suns Corp. █▐ x █▐ x But then, everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked accident hap- █▐ x pened. Her parents' shuttle lost power while on their way to the port to visit █▐ x one of their factories in the Border, and it crashed into the ocean view below. █▐ x Suddenly, everything was hers. The money. The power. The responsibility. █▐ x She could handle all of it... but she couldn't handle the rest of her family. They █▐ x argued and bickered about stupid things like who was going to get this money █▐ x or this business, even before the funeral. It wasn't even as if they had any █▐ x ground on which to stand: everything had clearly been left to her. Ada disco- █▐ x vered during the fighting that she had no desire to deal with all that for... what? █▐ x Wealth? Social standing? So, she worked hard to maintain everything to keep █▐ x up appearances; however, the young woman was secretly divvying everything █▐ x up so that when the time came, she could sell the lot of it quickly to anyone █▐ x who wasn't her family (though, she kept it within the small circle of people she █▐ x could trust) and then flee the scene so they could not pester her further. And █▐ x that time came. Ada now rents the spare shuttle from Captain O'Neil so she █▐ x can explore the 'verse and keep on the run so her family can't find her. █▐ x

█▐ x █▐ x Maggie Oakley was born in the foothills of Jiangyin, the third of seven children █▐ x born to Alan and Margaret Oakley. The nine of them were happy to work their █▐ x farm and live the simple life. Not much to worry about there: just the occasion- █▐ x al coyote or thief. They had to watch out for the mountainfolk sometimes, but █▐ x it wasn't so bad. Until Maggie saw the most beautiful woman in town one day. █▐ x From what she understood, the woman was a young debutante from the Core █▐ x who was touring a number of Border planets in order to observe those "less █▐ x fortunate" than her, dressed in such finery that Maggie could only guess as to █▐ x how one put it on and took it off. And that was it. Maggie was determined to █▐ x come to the Core and get a life just like that! Glamorous and shiny... █▐ x █▐ x The only problem, of course, is that Maggie, standing at 6'3", was just a little █▐ x too big and clumsy and dumb for the "good" lifestyle she wanted. The only █▐ x decent job she got during her time on the Core was as a bouncer at a night- █▐ x club, and her only job was to stand there, look intimidating, and scare ne'er- █▐ x do-wells into obedience. The one job that didn't require her to be graceful and █▐ x ladylike, and she got fired when they realized she had the size and build of a █▐ x typical bouncer, but her feminine features didn't deter a lot of troublemakers █▐ x from doing their thing. So, she finds herself on Persephone, seeking passage █▐ x home with her tail between her legs. █▐ x
