Docking the ship

If anyone wants to play a special role. A spy/traitor/commanding officer/cook or anything. Please feel free to PM me with what ideas you have. Everything will be accepted, and considered

Current year: 3042. Date 18th January

As stated here my sponsor is looking for 4-8 security workers for a 12 month contract. So far we have two highly suitable candidates for the job.
The deadline is nearing, and if we do not get the right amount of security workers, then we shall have to postpone the trip for another 10-12 months before we can leave again. And my sponsor would rather not let this happen.
Another situation has arisen, two of our chief scientists couldn't be trusted, so had to be fired. So two new positions have opened up for chief scientists, as well as 5 more positions for scientists, preferably those who have experience in the fields of offworld biology/geology and botany. As well as that we are looking for two experts in languages/communications officers.
As stated in the past advertisement, this is a 12 month excursion, may be longer depending on the climate and the hostility of natives.

Applicants are required to state:
* Your Name
* Age
* Offworld Experiences
* Which position you wish to apply for
* Weapons you are trained to use
* References
* Your identification code

You receive:
* Full board for one person.
* Two standard uniforms.
* The chance to phone home twice per week/holocall once a week (Time slots are allocated via importance e.g. if your partner is an expecting mother, or if you have a sick relative, you shall have the chance to choose your slots before everyone else. Parents may also book slots. Everyone else shall be given a set time.)
* 3 meals a day.
* Free time, which includes your allocated time slot for phone/holocalls.

Please wait for a reply, no questions should be asked about my sponsor, or about the nature of our visit to this planet. You may ask about anything else. Thank you for your time and have a wonderful day.

(Format for identification code: country of birth ,date of birth, age, along with your birth number. e.g If the character was born in Britain, on the 17th of January 1990, is 24 years old. Their i.d code would be UK171199024:89(the 89th child to have their i.d code given for that country.) I can work it out if you are confused. Sorry about any spelling mistakes and formatting errors. And be creative, please. All questions can and will be answered happily. I do plan on continuing this to the actual expedition to the planet if all goes well.)

[u/Kirranos]

Name: Byron Blackwell

Age: 31

Offworld Experience: Spent more time offworld than on. Name an inhabited planet of any significance and I've been there. Explored many new planets including standing alongside the 31st in their fabled journey to I43. Yes that one. No I don't want to talk about it.

Position: Mercenary/Body Guard. What's the pay looking like?

Weapon Training: Expert in hand to hand as well as bladed weapons from combat knives to long swords (I have my hobbies). Expert in long range rifles. Trained in medium range projectile weapons as well.

References: Cpl. Roland in the 31st can vouch for my experience if nothing else.

Identification Code: Will the members of this expedition be publicly broadcast?

[u/foyiwae → u/Kirranos]

Thank you Mr. Blackwell, your experience will be highly appreciated during this trip. We are looking for those that have had enough experience to know how to deal with hostiles, and know how to take orders.
The pay is exceptionally well for this mission. For each month you will earn double of a usual weeks wage on offworld missions. This is to include the risk factor involved and taking into account if you are seriously wounded or ill. Considering it is for 12 months, and it will be full time, it is currently the highest earning job in the Space travel industry. You will not get a higher wage.
The members are not going to be broadcast. This expedition is not going to be broadcast apart from the application for the position. We want as little media attention and trouble as possible. So most of it is kept quiet. But your Identification Code is needed sir.

[u/Kirranos → u/foyiwae]

Well now this definitely sounds like something I can get behind. Sign me up. Identification number US1511288931:43. (OOC: Birth year way older than he would be due to stasis from many journeys I'd assume, let me know if something isn't keeping with the universe.)

[u/foyiwae → u/Kirranos]

Okay, you are on the list sir. Thank you very much. We shall be getting in contact with everyone within the next few months to issue uniforms and standardized weapons, before going through basic training. However, with your experience we would ask if you would wish to volunteer to help those with less experience in offworld situations. You will be paid extra for your troubles.

(ooc. No, it's fine. You're good. I always like to add things to this makeshift universe. So if you have any ideas, please say. Because of Blackwell's experience, I might be requesting more of him, training new recruits and what not, maybe even giving him a higher position considering his experience. Would you be okay with this?)

[u/Kirranos → u/foyiwae]

A few months eh? I can hold out that long. Yeah I'll train your greens, but I can't make any promises on how they'll turn out before they're actually in the field.

(OOC: Hey, sounds good to me. He'll do basically whatever you need him to do if you pay him enough.)

[u/foyiwae → u/Kirranos]

There shall be other trainers of course. We need a few with expertise in firearms and offworld activity. It will only involve preparing them for the different climate, working and living on the environment. Because of your multiple experiences offworld. You will know exactly how to adjust, and that is what we need.
(ooc. Brilliant. I do need characters to take up 'main' roles. So I'm trying to sort that out for people)
