They salvaged the vessel with thier Airhart vessel, and put in the paperwork, but due to a clerical oversight, the Aragon Class Scout vessel went unclaimed for a year, and the ownership of it transferred over the chimpanzees.They immediately sold thier nearly junk-heap Airhart vessel (The FTL engines were damaged beyond repair, the environmental system was glitchy at best, and two of the five computer lobes in the computer system were shot) to but supplies, and began scouting with the vessel.After two  nearly disasterous stringruns, the group settled for running existing  strings for several years, then hopped a string and ran for it. Two hours of stringrunning took them on a looping trip from Galvos IX to Alpha Centauri, a distance of over 100 LY's. Selling this data allowed them to upgrade thier astrogation software as well as buy an AI Jump Hardpoint so that they could carry AI's onboard safely. Gunther also brokered a deal with the TNC to allow the ship to be refit at Naval shipyards and the crew to be able to use Naval facilities in exchange for thier string-data.This enabled them to get exploration contracts with the DASS and take along passengers from the DASS who were interested in where they were exploring.The Farjumpers are often found on the fringe world or disputed zones, and after exploring the effects of the supernova hyperwave on stringspace, they were last spotted at the Grahizy Naval Station in the DASS.Gunther CamberFast Hero 4/Dedicated Hero 2 CR 6; Medium-size humanoid (Jacked Up Chimpanzee); HD 4d8+8 plus 2d6+4; HP 37; Mas 14; Init +4; Spd 20 ft, Climb 20 ft; Defense 21, touch 21, flatfooted 17 (+0 size, +4 Dex, +7 class); BAB +4; Grap +5; Atk +5 melee (1d6+1, weapon), or +8 ranged (1d6+0, weapon); FS 5 ft by 5 ft; Reach 5 ft; SQ ; AL Farjumpers; SV Fort +5, Ref +6, Will +3; AP 3; Rep +2; Str 12, Dex 18, Con 14, Int 15, Wis 11, Cha 10.   Occupation: Astronaut Trainee (Navigate, Pilot)   Skills: Balance +10, Climb + 14, Craft (mechanical) +10, Drive +11, Escape Artist +6, Hide +6, Jump +11, Knowledge (Earth and Life Sciences) +8, Knowledge (History) +4, Knowledge (Streetwise) +8, Listen +2, Navigate +11, Pilot +20 (+24 in stringspace), Spot +2, Survival +6, Tumble +8   Feats: Alertness, Starship Dodge, Chaotic Mind, Starship Operations (Light), Starship Operations (Ultralight), Zero-G Training   Talents (Fast Hero): Increased Speed, Improved Increased Speed   Talents (Dedicated Hero): Skill Emphasis (Pilot)    Mutations: String resonance, Cybernetic DependencyGunther is a crack pilot with a "knack" for stringspace.
