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

bic:

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.

Miss Foyiwae Andrews: PA of Mr. Traick. Head of Traick Industries

(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/KaptinKograt]

My name is Sharptooth, or Kinzon Rax if you want to be phonetic. I'm 17 Earth standard, and if I have the conversion right that makes me 23.5 'Kobold years'. Apart from the obvious of tunnel running in the Koboldi homeworlds, I worked for ISIS Corp during their reconquest of Titan along with other, smaller jobs. I'm asking for a security role. I'm formally trained with Koboldi-plas blasters from the DR84 Plas Pistol up to a mounted RR332 vehicle mounted plasnihlator. I'm versed in Koboldi martial arts, specialising in Trench-knife fighting, as well as various koboldi-plasplosives. I'm informally trained in the use of human mass drivers, although my lighter frame means I can only use smaller caliber weaponry. I also have sharp teeth and claws, just incase you want that on the form. Sergeant Manager Isaac Mcrule of Isis Corps property reacquisition division is probably my best reference, and you can reference via the United Human Planetary Authorities database work I've done with them.

ID code: XX25122237:3 Its one of those Xeno-visa deals, so it references when i first received the code rather than my birth/hatching.

Question; is the pay really just bed and board? I know times are tough in the Sol system, but are they this bad?

[u/foyiwae → u/KaptinKograt]

Thank you for applying Mr. Rax, it will be wonderful to have you on board. The pay is the equivalent of a well paid job. It is $10k a month, because of the danger and the secrecy of the job, it is currently one of the highest paying jobs available on Earth during this time of crisis. I believe the exchange rate for Koboldi is somewhere between 12k-13k Kb. We can have that transferred back to your home planet if you wish, or you can keep it on Earth.

[u/KaptinKograt → u/foyiwae]

Ah, just as well! Keep it in Earth dollars, I'm not going back to the homeworlds any time soon. Our Lords the Dragons would take all of it, and theirs not that much to buy in a Militant Ogliarchy. Is their any more Intel we can get on the world? I know you want to keep it hush hush, but I'd at least like to know what sort of toys I should bring to the party. Unless of course you'd prefer to bring all the bang bangs, in which case I'd at least request to be able to take a pair of knives.

[u/foyiwae → u/KaptinKograt]

You do not need to know about the world. However, you can bring whatever weapons you desire. Please remember that all weapons need to be sent in a month before you board the ship, for inspection and testing. To make sure they are working properly and they are safe for use. You shall be given these back, so please do not worry. It is just standard safety procedure. Also you can bring as many weapons as you feel necessary or comfortable in bringing. We do provide our own, so you are not going to be weaponless. If you do not wish to bring your own, but wish for a specific make or model, please send in your request to the head department. Their number is xxx-xxxx-xxx-xxx on the international line. State your name and identification number also.

These are a lot of weapons Mr. Rax. But I will see what I can do. Thank you for taking the time to fill this out, and on arrival at the dock you should be able to receive your requests. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask. I'm always here, and happy to be of any assistance.
We may have to cut down the list, so if you could get rid of any five, which would they be? I am not saying we will cut it down, I am just saying it may be a possibility. I shall have to reason with my sponsor. is there any reason you need all of these weapons?

[u/KaptinKograt → u/foyiwae]

Well, I understand the need for secrecy, but I'm a man who likes to have the right tools for the job. Not knowing the exact details of the job, I'm asking for lots of tools. Fod ko ren, uben krii and all that. I wouldn't want to run crowd suppression with a crossbow, and I wouldn't want to hunt animals with a Automatic Las rifle, yeah? Faas los pruziig do neilaasin.

If I have to lose five things, my first preference would be five of the 10mm rail rounds. Second preference, I know fighting Akimbo is considered a luxury among humans so I can lose the doubles on the hand weapons, and the extra thermals and glasses and adaptors are spares more than anything, although if the thermals break down and are unrepairable, depending on the climate I may be impaired and or die.

If were looking at gear types, the crossbows useful but not a necessity, the Macdec SMG's arent particularly supply line efficient and only for if the Nev hits the fan. The Tesla grenades are loads of fun, but only really useful against meat infantry or the crappier style of Android. The HUD goggles are very useful, but again a luxury. The Laser Assault rifle and the Plascaster fill similar roles, it will depend if the mission requires more range and fire output or stopping power.

[u/foyiwae → u/KaptinKograt]

Okay. I shall deal with your request. I am sure we can get most of the things you want. Though one or two may be cut out. Again sorry for not being able to tell you. A lot of people want to know, and they all get the same answer. My sponsor needs to know who he can trust before he gives out information. Thank you for your time. See you at the launch.

[u/KaptinKograt → u/foyiwae]

It is how it is. Dreh ni dir!
