[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 5246100, member: 4936"] As for my character, I was thinking perhaps...and this is just brainstorming...she is in possession of a dinky free trader type starship that does backwater trade between Vargr worlds and Zhodani fringe colonies. This is the 'exile' I spoke of earlier. The ship comes with strings though...she doesn't really own it. Her family does, and through them, the Zhodani Consulate. She's basically free to do what she wants with it, as long as she doesn't break any Consulate laws in Consulate space. She travels under an assumed name and is cut off from family resources in every way other than the starship. I'm thinking that perhaps she lets Herr Doktorr rent some cargo space for his mobile laboratory, with the stipulation that he doesn't interfere with cargo or passengers she takes on. A little revenue stream always helps after all. Then, if the Consulate wants a very low-key, under-the-radar investigation of increased examples of psionic activity among vargr, they just send their agent to rendezvous with the ship, with orders she can't ignore to take this guy where he needs to go and not ask any questions. If they're feeling very generous, perhaps they even pay some for it. :) [/QUOTE]
