Just dropping by to say I'll be handling at least a few of the Nanoha characters in this, starting with Nanoha herself and Vita. I'll definitely be handling more, just not sure who as of yet.

...Guess I'll need to look up what the Bridge Bunnies are called, seeing how I forgot their names. >.< But, um... Let's see, Max, Milia, bridge bunnies, Exedol, Gamlin and all of Fire Bomber at the very least... Um, hmmm.

[up][up]Take Arf! And Yuuno! It always annoyed me how they got the shaft in later seasons. >.<

But Yuuno isn't even directly connected to any of those people! [lol]

Arf's magically linked to Fate, Yuuno just happens to be a friend!

@Imca:

Hm... good question. Reven didn't appear to specify in his OP too well.

@Character sheets:

Well, I'd only have to write up Darth Vader, Nahdonnis Praji (Vader's aide aboard the vessel), Lieutenant Hija (Chief Gunnery Officer), Captain Bolvan (Gunnery Captain), and an unknown commander of the Devastator (the Wookieepedia article doesn't mention who was in command during the Battle of Endor). The bridge crew and most of the other staff (aside from maybe a stormtrooper and a TIE pilot) can probably remain nameless. Bolvan and Hija I'm not too sure about; I'm tempted only to pick out whoever was higher ranking, but I think you couldn't have one without the other. Hmph. Help, please?

As it turns out, Ginga was transferred into Riot Force 6 and would therefore be aboard.

If Jail + Numbers just gets turned into 'Jail's side', then Lutecia would make sense.

This just leaves the question of 'is leaving Arf in an even more distant dimension from normal a good idea?'

Well, I've found a website with better info on this stuff, and I now know the engines of my ship. It does have FTL travel!

The inter-dimensional thing in Nanoha seems to be more of a FTL thing, or at least something that would operate that way in a conventional setting. [lol]

I wonder what would happen if you let Kaylee loose on any of the other ships.

Fortunately, that's not a danger if they end up on the Cradle. I highly doubt that magitech is compatible. [lol]

Sorry for not getting online in a bit, but I think I really only need a short character profile if its an OC.

I've done up three for my ship, and I'll handle the others on the fly.

Commander Alexander Vrake – age 39, dark brown hair, green eyes, goatee. Known for a slightly laid back approach and not above cracking a joke. Deadly serious if anything threatens his ship however. Has a closet phobia of Cylons and Artificial Intellegence.

Executive Officer Cornelia Aries – Age 34, Short Black Hair, blue eyes. Totally Serious when on duty, nicknamed the “Head Bitch of the Ship” by the crew. Can be somewhat laid back when off duty, but not always.

Chief Engineer Barts – 41, Buzz Cut blonde hair, dark brown eyes. Humorous joker personality. Loves his engines, but holds little regard for 'proper' officers, save his commander.

Eeeh...

Depends if you're talking about a completely Original Ship and Universe, or a ship class that you create for a universe.

A completely original universe and ship...well...that might work, depends on how it is written. As for an OC ship design from an established universe, I'll play entry by entry. Submit it, and if I think its too powerful (or having an extreme advantage in another way), I'll ask the submitter to modify it.

And this won't be starting tonight, I'm tired and off to bed >.>

The ship and universe are unique to a game I am in the proccess of making, I can type out the specs so you can have a look at it, it is a mostly AI driven, small crewed T-4 (ships around 800 to 1200 meters in setting) focusing on torpedos.

OK, my ship now has a name. And I bit the bullet and made it American. Doesn't mean the SG Team I'm sticking aboard for boarding actions and exploration is though.

Saint's Cradle at full strength: nigh invulnerable and was eventually scuttled because of a centuries long civil war. In working order.

Saint's Cradle at the moment: thirty or so people, no offensive or defensive capabilities to speak of.

... I like the gap. :D

Given my one's just a troop transport, and yet it's got quite a few weapons and defenses.

And a Star Destroyer... is a Star Destroyer.

Anyway, I'm not sure whether to write up a profile for Vader and both of those gunnery officers or not. The first because he's already pretty well known, and the latter because I'm not sure whether it would be redundant or not.

I really only need a short character profile if its an OC.

Emphasis added by me.
