On it hahaha I want to describe the Laika and Candela ^^ and myself, and finding my characer pitch and pasting it here.
Laika
the main color is pale green (I named It Laika for a reason haha) and I was thinking of a Jeep, more like a buggy I guess that looks like the Half Life 2 vehicle.
So you see how could be upgraded.
With armor… mounting the gun…
That’s the green I’m talking about in my other equally beatiful Laika.
Worst pic, but It’s daytime ^^
I’m thinking that It has space for everyone in the party, maybe a couple has to stand and hold to the bars and just two seats?
Maybe we could even mount @Fraggles If he has time and feels up to It, to repair while we explore or even on the run like R2-D2 hahaha
Candela
Okey so I tought about Serenity, the thing is that ship is waaay to massive and lets be honest the outside is kind of ugly xd
So I look at Star Citizen Ships so you guys have a tangible space in mind with some tweaks, so there’s room for imagination, literally, I’m changing the cells for rooms, since I transport cargo and sometimes people.
Take a look at our Cutlass Blue, Candela.

Instead of the 6 holding cells It has 6? rooms, bigger than those cells (than you can describe If you want) and tiny kitchen when you enter in the rigth corner, also a tiny rest room for everybody so you don’t have to put one in your room (But you can have your private one)
And a folding table/chairs that we can place to eat in the middle of the ship.
With all that + the buggy, there’s really not that much place for big cargo, but space there is and we can shove stuff into the rooms and were It fits on the floor, If the characters are cool with the inconveniences.
I mean I don’t think we’re going around shiping kettle or anything.

Here you have the add for the Cutlass so you see how nimble It is ^^
And ofc the stats that count/what she has is on the Mindjammer universe so don’t pay too much attention to guns and all It can do in SC.
Backstory
I’ll add how I look in a while, plus probably rewrite this with the book guide. And the technicall skill, and the trouble! (This are just notes for me at this point hahaha, sorry! )
So, what I had in mind is a merchant bear, like typical brown bear with his own not-so-big-ship.
Regular stuff for the most part, people/things, not into illegal stuff that much but will do If is easy quid + a lil’ bit of exictment, nothing to gruesome tho.
Because my dad was also a merchant and he grew up in this like enviroment of cool stories of his dad and all and… yeah It’s ob way more tedious than those tales.
I really like the idea of selling shit and smuggling even If he doesn’t need too, like he’s not rich or anything, but still.
By shit I mean not like "Hey, this stone will make your illness go away " but more like:
“This stone was used in this planet to see trough the clouds (like the vikings) in a planet with gas all over It, and I was tiny so I can’t really tell you where the planet is, but we lived and fend with them, and learning the trade they gave this to my Dad as a rite of passage and a sign of respect.”
“My father died a while back… (Not really, dunno where he is but… he’s cool hahaha) so this brings me pain and It’s not like I don’t know the story by heart… mmmmh yes maybe we can make an exchange”
And It’s a random stone that looks the part, and even does It!
I’m selling stories you know, ob I’m full of shit but It’s clear that he can’t use this Item, I also thought of him filling a jar with dirt hahahah and tell the same story but is waterworld and they gave us the dry land as a token, this ancient merchant civilization.
I feel he got easy quid for that, not to much trouble and a good laugh ^^
Not disrespectfully tho… they bought the story, It is what it is, charming in a way, I don’t think I’m better or anything is a cool story and you pay for that conversation piece.
And you know… I’m a freaking bear so people don’t give me shit, wich I think is a cool thing to have going on for you as a merchant, but I can be nice and chill, and ob I don’t think I can beat another bear unless lucky or whatever.
Long story short, I’m bored and stuck with this life, not that I don’t like It, I certanly embrace routine but yeah maybe too much, but I won’t do super illegal stuff on my own.
I had in mind a pilot/merchant kind of guy, can tinker around and repair stuff I guess but not too much. (again this is like the idea hahah maybe the idea he has of himself, maybe he can’t repair for shit ) a cool guy but could be intimidating.
And the name is Bagheera (See what I did there? ) Baloo was to obvious + he’s not really that chill, minding bussines and that.
