OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
Intent: The intent is to create a more realistic crew for my character's ship the Unyielding Faith
Image Credit: Andromeda TV Series
Links: Allya Vi'Dreya
Crew Name: Crew of the Unyielding Faith
Crew Type: Ship's Crew
Base of Operations: The Unyielding Faith
Crew Size: 6 Notable Crew Members
Loyalties: The Crew is loyal to Allya Vi'Dreya
Description: The Crew is a highly skilled group of officers that oversee the operations of the personal corvette The Unyielding Faith.
Name: Jane Whey
Age: 30
Species: Human
Role: Jane Whey is Captain of the Unyielding Faith. She oversees all operations of the ship, and figures out how to make Allya's orders into reality.
Description: Captain Jane Whey is a young, but capable captain. She was the captain of a CIS frigate for a number of years, but recently went private and was found captaining a Super-Freighter. Clever and resourceful, the woman knows how to follow orders, and more importantly, how to run her ship, and her crew correctly. Her loyalty to Allya stems from a point in the recent past where she witnessed the girl's selfless devotion to protecting the CIS firsthand, as her former crew was saved from attack by the child's actions.
Name: Ves-Lei Kruster
Age: 28
Species: Human
Role: Head Janitor and Chief Fix-it man. He is responsible for keeping the ship clean, the doors from getting jammed, the toilets unclogged, and the droids fixed and operational.
Description: Ves-Lei is a goofball, but one who takes great pride in his work. Pranks are often played on his fellow crew members. He learned quickly to avoid Allya, to never even think of playing one on Jerek for fear of Allya, and to avoid the hulking chief of security as well....probably for another Allya related reason. He was part of the crew of Captain Jane Whey's last post on the freighter, got tapped by her and made himself at home. He is a whiz at fixing things.
Name: Ashyyn (Ash)
Age: 110
Species: Sephi
Role: Chief of Engineering. She keeps the ship running, repairs it when its damaged, and manages power outputs, and the smooth running of every system in it. She is also the head Star Fighter Mechanic
Description: Ash is a bubbly, happy person, eternally hyper, and excited. She is a brilliant engineer, and able to keep the ship running through all eventualities, with over a century of working on star ships. She wanted to serve the CIS, however, was not fond of heavy regulations found on most military warships. As such, this post seemed perfect for her.
Name: Tib Bones
Age: 45
Species: Human/Umbaran hybrid
Role: Ship's doctor, surgeon, and councilor.
Description: Doctor Tib Bones was hand picked by the CIS leadership. He was to be the primary physician of one of the more public children of the vicelord, and one that had many unique problems. He was a general practitioner, surgeon, and a certified psychological counselor. Like Allya he was a Umbaran/Human hybrid, and he was married to a Dar'manda Mandalorian, who served in the ships security crew. The man is brilliant and gentle. However, he was also a medical researcher. He took the position, as it allowed him to be with his wife, and took him out of the chaos and noise of the hospitals, while still allowing him access to start of the art facilities and labs. This gave him much more time to work on his research.
Name: Beverly Chapel
Age: 34
Species: Human
Role: Helmsman. Beverely flies the Unyielding Faith.
Description: Beverely is one of the top pilots in the galaxy. However, after a series of accidents, and write ups for disobeying orders she was discharged. She always put the safety of the ship and it's crew, and people above the missions. It was her skill, and her instincts to protect what she considered hers that got her tapped for this job. There would be a time Allya would ask for something unreasonable, they needed a pilot who could disobey, and keep her safe regardless of the young Mandalorian's bravery. She considered this a chance to redeem herself in the eyes of the CIS. She is also romantically involved with Brandjii.
Name: Brandjii Ottis
Age: 40
Species: Human (Sandali)
Role: Chief of Security
Description: Brandjii is a Sandali, and a man tapped by Cardinal to watch over his niece. However, while his skills in the force, combat, and work ethic were stellar, he had no connection to Allya, and little to Cardinal himself, beyond a mutual respect. This was considered essential, so that Allya would accept the added Security. He had no need to watch over her every life beyond doing the job he was assigned. He is a powerful warrior, and quite serious. He takes protecting the ship, and it's owner as if it was his sacred duty. However, he leaves the girl's more personal choices to her. He is in a relationship with Beverley.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
The crew was formed when the Unyielding Faith was still being created. All of them had reasons to be there, and to remain loyal and want the ship to survive. All of them had been vetted and are well paid. These, and every crew member aboard the ship are loyal to their young mistress and she quickly became like family to them. It is their duty, and honor to safely deliver her place to place, but the ship they inhabit became so much more. It isn't just a ship. While they follow Allya's whims, she in turn does all she can to keep them safe as well. The freedom, and privacy of this floating home, as it flew through the stars calls to each of them. Many have families aboard the ship, and Allya treats them with a respect and dignity most never had before, and certainly never expected to get from a Sith.
While they bicker, and fight, tease and torment, the bonds they have as a crew are strong. They help their Sith mistress with her troubles, teaching her how to dress up, put on make up, how to dance, or cook, how to expand her skills, or how to attempt to impress her boyfriend. These people on the ship, are one large extended family. If one is in trouble, they all are. They protect each other. It may be Allya's ship, but they all agreed....it was Home.
