I can work with that as well, maybe boost up the minions some. We'll see which one's more appealing. Give me some time to figure it out, alright?Bladewind wrote:Pity.

Complications
Motivation: Patriotism: Shannon is an officer in Royal Manticoran Navy's Office of Naval Intelligence, and a native of the planet Manticore. She's strongly motivated to help what's crossed over of the Star Empire survive in this strange merged universe.
Prejudice: Orangazitons that remind Shannon of the old People's Republic of Haven, the Solarian League, and/or the Mesan Alignment are deeply distrusted by her. She knows that individuals are not organizations, but this can give her problems.
Prejudice: As a third-generation prolong recipient in her late 40s, she looks like she's in her early 20s to humans who don't have prolong or something similar.
Relationship: Shannon is bonded to Sherlock, and will take extraordinary risks to protect him.

Background: Shannon Bradley was born on Manticore during the long build-up to the first Manticore-Haven war. She was assigned to the Office of Naval Intelligence upon graduating from the Manticoran Naval Academy on Saganami Island, and has served for 26 years as a technical analyst.
She is one of the few RMN officers bonded to a treecat; she acquired Sherlock (or Looks Under Leaves to other treecats) during a ski trip to Sphinx early in her career.
Over the course of the Manticore-Haven wars, she lost many of her friends in the fighting, which has made her less than completely accepting of the recent peace, even knowing as much as anyone on Manticore about what led to the second war.
When the Merge interrupted Prince Roger's wedding, the (somewhat reduced) Star Empire of Manticore sent a delegation to Earth Prime to learn more about the universe they found themselves in. Shannon was part of that mission as a technical analyst.

Complications
Prejudice: Because Sphinxian treecats look like large, six-legged housecats and can't speak human languages, humans (and in the Merge universe, many other intelligent creatures) from outside the Manticore binary system often don't realize they're fully sentient, tool-using creatures
Relationship: Sherlock is bonded to Shannon, and will take extraordinary risks to protect her.

Background: Even by treecat standards, Looks Under Leaves was an incredibly curious 'cat. He is considerably younger than his clanmate Laughs Brightly (aka Honor Harrington's Nimitz). His bondmate's interest in detective stories may have been what led her to name him Sherlock, but it seems to have been well deserved; he's been invaluable in much of her work.

I'm grouping Drow in with Vampires, Chaos Marines and Goa'uld as truly evil races, with the unique exception of course. Kal'annar being one of those. Thor's image being the inspiration, I was going for villainous swordsman, so I need to alter his build slightly. He's too much sorcery not enough swordsman.Bladewind wrote: Starguard: Kal'annar
Note- the niches/ wish list I have are broad enough that multiple versions are encouraged/ acceptable/ possible. If everyone suddenly wanted to play the Thundercats with a Monkian... or a Jaffa Unit... it would have worked just as well.
Hmm. It would probably take quite some time to determine that the 'cats trusted the powers that be on Earth Prime enough for any significant migration there (or anywhere off Sphinx that made it through the Merge). A handful of experts accompanying official Manticoran delegations or the odd 'cat bonded to a human may come out this way, but even a "colony" as small-scale as the one on Grayson is probably not likely any time soon.StarGuard wrote:Also thinking, just cause, Kal' might be a subject for gene therapy if someone (looking at you Shannon ) else doesn't step into that role (More seriously if both choosen Kal is going to take a real liking to treecats, the treecats should become a thing in the Merge. A colony on Mt. Denali-McKinley maybe )
Heh. Mine was yesterday. 41, sigh.Bladewind wrote:If you want to think about things like colonies of treecats and the like, feel free. But try not to pin them down to specific locations. At least at the start.
Regarding Shannon and Hanna Solo (er, Amaryllis)... I like what I am seeing so far.
It's my "Ha ! You`re older sucker !" day, so I may or may not be able to actually post comments or updates this evening...
