Groundbreaker Queenie Eight-Four 84-4242-4286 is yet another player character played by Navian.
Species & Gender: Freespacer (Type Three Cyborg) Female
Year of Birth: YE 18
Organization: Shravana Hive
Occupation: City Planner/Civil Engineer
Preferred Plot: 188604
Physical Description
5'10"/178 cm, 150 lbs/68 kg. Mature adult build, in good health for her age. Waist-length, nearly straight blue hair, silvery skin, blue-green cybernetic replacement eyes, and matte black, antenna-like replacement ears with matching ultrasonic emissions collar. She has a pleasant, but not terribly memorable face, with a greek nose. The symbiont she wears has the appearance typical to those of her group, providing a full-body reflective counting. Her voice tends to sound warm and pleasant, even when she isn't.
Personality
Though Queenie is charismatic and sensitive on the surface, this persona belies her calculating and critical nature. Her goals in life change often, as a Groundbreaker, her role is to commit herself fully to each new endeavor, only to hand it off and never look back as soon as it becomes routine. She starts projects she can never complete, and leaves them in the hands of others. All her free time is spent on daydreaming and exercise, side projects and hobbies of construction and destruction are not acceptable so long as she has her true calling to focus on. Her demeanor is generally calm, sometimes to an unnerving degree.
She is firmly bound to the people of the Shravana hive and their network, and consults with them daily, no matter where her ambitions may take her. Thus far, she's been distant from non-Freespacer humans, and downright icy in attitude toward Freespacers of differing ideologies, who she prefers to pretend are another species entirely. Non-humanoid aliens and their habitations are one of the few things that make her anxious.
History
Groundbreaker 84 was born in YE 18 aboard a Freespacer mothership, one destroyed during the genocide. At the time, she worked in starship engineering, but nothing she built before the attack survived. The fleet largely dissolved, and she became part of a movement to rebuild the Free State under new terms, with less 'Free' and more 'State'. The result was the Shravana Hive, an interplanetary commune and mining fleet, of which she became a founder in high repute. It is not significant on the galactic scale.
Once the situation was stable, she grew dissatisfied as her role seemed to shift from 'colony founder/city planner' to 'mining/industrial fleet engineer'. This drove her to seek a fresh challenge, and new allies, while she still had time to make an impression beyond her new home star system.

Social Connections
Groundbreaker 84 is connected to:
- The Shravana Hive (many people, on many levels)
- Naffie (her earlier pet project)
Groundbreaker Eight-Four has the following notable skills:
- Engineering: Designing and building things is Eight-Four's life. Her main focus is new colonies, which included those of the Hive itself. With time to prepare, she can design almost anything, though building things--including her own prototypes--is something she struggles with.
- Biology and Chemistry: Eight-Four is adept at creating viable, closed-system ecologies for habitats, and can also diagnose and fix problems with them. This is not applicable at a planetary scale, nor does she know how to work with organisms more complex than those found in starship gardens.
- Construction: Habitats, industrial complexes, offices, bunkers, water systems, mass transit networks--Queenie has built all of them, and is a more than capable electrician, besides. She has certainly never built a bridge, however, and the only buildings she's built that were unpressurized were built inside something pressurized. She uses the most advanced techniques available--construction robots. Doing any work at a scale larger than a square meter using muscle power strikes her as insane.
- Leadership: Queenie is used to being in charge, and being surrounded by others who are used to her being in charge. Being part of the ruling clique comes naturally to her... when the rest of the clique is composed of Freespacers, that is. She's adapted to paradigm shifts before, but this one might be a doozy. In any case, her experience mostly has to do with oversight, intelligence operations, faction politics, fleet movements, and construction crews.
- Starship Operations: Queenie can get a starship around as well as any seasoned 'spacer.
- Technology Operations: Eight-Four's senses are fully integrated with her design and planning software. Hypothetical structures can be made fully real in her mind, modified and tested to her whims, long before they're constructed. She also knows how to wire new networks, for a building without a network is only a hollow shell, so far as she's concerned. She tends to accumulate precise survey data useful for future construction just by moving around and looking at an environment.
Eight-Four has the following:
- Bivoac Sack
- Rations, 3 days
- Voidwalker Suit
- Sanitizing Wipes
- Basic Filter Mask
- Electrician's Toolkit
- Field Communicator
- Computerized Bodysuit
- Radiothermal Generator
- Construction Microbot Hive
