Briefly describe the background and/or personality of a character you enjoy playing (Can be SS14, DND, or a character you just made up!):
It is truly a marvel that Civilisation managed to expand so far from Earth. That we were able to build tin can shuttles sturdy enough to keep us alive during the journey. I'm sure the technology was forged from pure necessity. Fuelled by desperation and guided by the hope that the destination was even habitable. So many stars had to align to for us to arrive in this Sector, let alone thrive. But they did! Isn't that amazing? Our existence in this place is a constant reminder that impossibility is merely a concept.
We’ve spent centuries here. Progressed so far. Mixing magical medicine. Mastering unthinkable crafts. Travelling through Space, a feat that once took years of specialised training, has become a luxury taken for granted. We certainly are a Spacefaring Nation. But if our need for Plasma weren't so present, I don't think we would be.
Space is cold. It is brutal. It is unrelenting. The idea that all your breathable air could instantaneously vanish through a tiny hull crack caused by an insignificant pebble hurtling by... thoughts like that are where nightmares originate. I suspect many secretly loathe that their lives are so intertwined with this danger, and if allowed the option, would choose to remain firmly on the ground. Never once exposing themselves to the void's clutches.
Yet there is no greater pleasure than throwing yourself into the abyss, Barozine running hot through the veins, weightlessly swimming through its vacuum knowing that Death itself is doing the same and smiling anyway. That feeling... is the warmest embrace I have ever known. No planet makes me feel safer.
I think I would like to return. Even if only for a moment.
What made you join Funky Station?: Rainbeon convinced me. It sounds interesting and now I'm curious.
