So, your home planet's uninhabitable and/or completely destroyed and you were left an orphan. Well, that just won't do. Not according to Captain Brackley, anyway. You could see the children's wing of the Salus as an orphanage of sorts, but I'll be real with you: Brackley's really just... adopting orphans left and right.

• Capt. Marcus (Marc) Brackley
  • 35
  • 6'0
  • 187lbs
  • Bi, cis
  • Human - English (Geordie)
  • Captain of the Salus, and dad to... like, half the population of the ship. Local man can't stop adopting kids, more at 11
  • * slaps top of Brackley * this man can fit so much love in him
  • Really athletic and active. Gets antsy if he has to sit down for any long period of time
  • Quite enjoys farming! Helps maintain the community gardens whenever he gets time :)
  • Just has this aura about him that makes you feel safe when he's around and YOU'D BE RIGHT he'd protect you from anything
  • Only problem is he's extremely stubborn. He also doesn't have a fantastic immune system. He has had many arguments with Anili about whether he should take bed rest (he should) or if he should keep going as usual helping around the ship and mingling with it's residents (he shouldn't. For Several Very Obvious Reasons)
• Dr. Rosana Anili
  • 41
  • 5'2
  • 132lbs
  • Whatever (so like, probably aroace) cis
  • Human - Russian (Heavy but gentle Russian inflection)
  • The Salus's dedicated doctor. She's maybe a little bit scary but I promise you she's really lovely!!!
  • Bickers with Brackley constantly, but they're real close friends!! (She's always right tho)
  • Has absolute feral energy most of the time. Of course she means well but it's hard to believe that when you've got a tiny woman brandishing a GIANT syringe above you and telling you it 'won't hurt a bit'
  • Quite likes different types of needlecraft in her spare time. No surprised she's a doctor then, really.
  • Knows FIVE languages. Not all of them fluently, sure, but still, FIVE
  • She's frighteningly strong. Like, Can-Lift-Brackley-With-Ease strong. They know this from experience.
• Amez
  • 16
  • 5'4
  • 165lbs
  • Pan, NB
  • Hertosian - from the fifth one (Accent isn't really comparable to anything we'd know, but he has quite a heavy lisp - the general language on Hertos has no hard S's!!)
  • Had an injury at a young age, and one of the elders of his small colony took care of it. He grows his hair over it now, but the entire right side of his face is covered in continually blooming flowers. It's really something to behold.
  • Food is so good. Like, food is so, so good. That's all.
  • Loves the colour red!!! Just like his hair! Give him literally anything red and he will be super excited and happy about it!!! :DD
  • Pretends to be cocky and loud but he's actually really soft and sensitive underneath so PLEASE BE KIND TO HIM
  • Suuuuper into all kinds of movies. Will stay in one of the theater rooms picking different movies all day if he's left to (and he often is) just marvelling at them
  • Despite that, really struggles with bright lights, coming from a part of Hertos V that didn't get sunlight very often. Often wears dark tinted glasses because he gets AWFUL headaches in too much bright light and also sleeps a little more than he should in order to avoid it
• Clyde Sirret-Tahni
  • 18
  • 6'1
  • 153lbs
  • Gay, demiboy
  • Part-Human - American - Part Chambious (Veeery vaguely Country accent, struggles a little with hard P sounds)
  • Used to colder climates, having lived far from the Chambi equator - always wearing super warm, fluffy clothes. Makes him look very soft and huggable :3
  • Not very good with words but will share his music with u as his own way of saying that he loves u
  • Big ol ball of energy and doesn't have many non-obstructive outlets so if u need help w something HES UR MAN he'll be greatful to have something to spend his energy on
  • Has a very impressive collection of knitted hats. Wears them at all times. A rare few have ever seen what his hair looks like underneath
  • Will sometimes just talk in Chambious instead of English even though he knows that half the people on the ship won't understand him because honestly translating in ur head is So Much especially with the fucked up way English words are pronounced
  • Can't walk like a normal person he has to be running or like dancing or jumping or something. He do kinda got moves tho
• Elliot Dunn
  • 17
  • 5'6
  • 178lbs
  • Doesn't really care, cis
  • Human - English (Londoner)
  • Would literally just stay in bed All The Time if he could. No he DOESN'T want to do things go away
  • Does quite like little puzzle game type fidget things. They're good to occupy your hands and also potentially your brain if you're too bored to focus on what you're meant to be focusing on
  • SUCH a little grumpy bitch. Please don't talk to him. Please don't really do anything with him unless he put himself there first. He will decide when he is to be interacted with
  • Pretends he doesn't like physical contact but he actually super loves getting hugs and he's super cuddly so it's perfect but SSSSHH
  • I don't think he has one pair of bottom-half-attire that isn't tracksuit bottoms. Comfort over looks he refuses to wear anything else
  • Can't grow anything more on his chin than a little bit of scruff but he's NOT going to shave it off (because he can't be bothered to -- tbh it doesn't really matter bc his friends think it suits him)
• Jamie Allen
  • 17
  • 5'7
  • 140lbs
  • Lesbian, cis
  • Human - Polish (Gentle Polish accent)
  • Has ridiculously long hair that she's been growing most of her life. Usually has some sort of updo to keep it manageable. Refused to have it anything more than, like, an inch off. EVER.
  • Speaks way too much. Like the 'can make an essay out of a sentence that could've been five words long' kind of too much.
  • Really into botany and, as such, is fascinated with Amez. He finds it quite flattering so it's okay :) they're friends!!!!
  • Also really likes papercrafts, mostly... Making flowers. Yeah. She really likes flowers. She can make some impressively realistic paper ones!!
  • Is also,, very clumsy. Hands are constantly covered in plasters bc she gets So Many Papercuts
  • WILL ONLY WEAR YELLOW AND YOU CAN'T MAKE HER WEAR ANYTHING ELSE!!!
• Kate Jeyenstock
  • 15
  • 5'9
  • 114lbs
  • Not sure, cis
  • Human - English (Londoner)
  • CONSTANTLY making art and she will not EVER be stopped for ANYTHING
  • Has a near-encyclopedic knowledge of every single cartoon she's old enough to have seen in her lifetime and she WILL infodump if given the choice
  • The exact kind of feral teenage girl that you think is quiet until you make friends with her and find out she's literally the funniest person alive actually
  • Covered in paint/pen/glue/all manner of other craft supplies at ALL times and she will NOT wash it off for you because it'll be back in like five minutes so what's the POINT
  • Will usually join Amez in one of the movie rooms but may fall asleep if it's not a cartoon. You ever think about how movie theaters are just like... really comfy? Yeah, even more so when they're, y'know, filled with beanbags and pillows.
  • Can and will just appear anywhere at any time without warning and without any indication of how she got there. Notorious for scaring the engine techs half to death by just popping up behind them and asking what whatever they're working on does. You need an access card to get into the engine floor.

  • Not actually sure, but Not Quite Human (accent seems to actually shift depending on who they're talking to? Like, it tends to mimic the other person's a lil bit)
  • They don't remember if they've ever lived on a planet. As far as they're aware, they always lived on various different ships. They got passed from guardian to guardian a lot though, and it was unstable. Of course Capt. Brackley couldn't not adopt them

  • Venduurican, Human - grew up on Venduura, so they don't really consider themself human (Almost sounds, like, vaguely Italian? Tends to stress hard noises more as if they were some sort of glottal stop, too.)

  • Can go on ALL DAY about scripting decisions in games or movies and the intricate details and implications and how clever they are. He doesn't need a script or any notes he just KNOWS this stuff. Should've been a youtuber but youtube doesn't really exist (at least in the same way) in this version of the future
  • Never actually traveled off-planet before Brackley adopted him and he's lived there like half his life now but it still fucks him up that he wakes up in the morning and leaves his bedroom and there's just. Space. Out the window. It's So So Cool
