Approved Character [188604] Flynn Blackburn

Sorry, reading through the thing right now. It is a lot of text!

Should ask @Rizzo if he wants to have Flynn running cargo for him, and have the two of you working with USO, or if you want to take this in another direction.
 
@Zack

That sounds fine. Though I'm a bit confused on how the 188604 plot works. Is it just a bunch of independent characters JPing together? Or are there set factions you can't veer from?
 
Candon would hire him, but the ship he owns is kinda broken. I am looking into some ships but haven't chosen any yet. Are you looking for a Millenium Falcon-ish ship?
 
That's normal. You'll either leave or really enjoy that feeling.

188604 is a bunch of independent characters that Uso has schemed into helping her. Everyone is kinda doing their own thing, but they are all doing it right next to one another. We have spacers trying to make space great again, a living mecha-meme that just wants to fly mecha, a PMC with aspirations of gradure, and some people who just want to help the locals or have some fun.

Each Arc is Uso trying to accomplish one major task, and herding all the characters towards that goal as best she can.
 
@Zack Sounds great if you ask me!

@Rizzo

Yeah. Nothing too huge like a Warhorse, so that it can be fast and agile should the need arise, but large enough to carry a good amount of cargo.
 
The cargo hold is 1250m cubed. It'll hold 25 SSCC-Large containers at 50m cubed per piece or 11 SSCC-XL (semi truck trailer sized) containers at 112.5m cubed per piece
 
That seems plenty huge and it's super cheap too. A good start maybe? Or we could aim higher but then stuff gets bigger which involves more crew and less maneuverability.
 
Yeah, best to start small until you can get enough personnel to man anti-ship guns/fly fighter escort. Although, I'm still not quite sure what Candon plans to do. From what I've read he'll be dealing with a lot of criminals, so perhaps it'd be best to start with a smaller ship that doesn't need a large crew.
 
After some research I think I have found the perfect ship for him.
Behold!
Slap 4 turrets on this bad boy and your set to go!

Candon tends toward having 'the best' so he'd be inclined to hire Flynn to be it's captain and make a deal with him to collect a percentage of the profits.
