    Dibs on engineering because that's what I am in real life.

    I also nominate Hort as our Ablative Security Person.... Who has MIRACULOUS regenerative properties. Some even go so far as to say he is ETERNAL....

    I think I'd be happy with Second Officer at the rank of Commander at OPS.

    I think we did something like this before, maybe around this time last year.

    We had a USS Ten Forward RPG where each person that participated held a post aboard the Galaxy. Hazard was Captain, Chat was at the Helm, and I think I was Executive Officer (may be wrong on that), but these are the only ones I remember right off the top of my head.

    If I can find a link to the thread, I'll post it upon request.

    This is a good idea.

    Most of our "ship's staff" isn't with us any more and we destroyed ourselves by flooding the ship and a hairdrier on the warp core. This was, I think, last August. That's been dead ever since.

    I'm all for this. I'm not knocking the idea, and if I've sounded like I have, I don't mean it at all.

    So all things, considering, I think I'd go with an engineering post was well, since I'm wanting to go into aerospace engineering when I get out of high school. If not engineering, probably go for executive officer or captain positions.

    I nominate Flasherman as a bumbling Red Shirt that somehow survives each episode.

    I call dibs as Chief Medical.

    Now, each of you needs a complete physical.

    Maybe Capt. Zero should assume the role of captain this time around so she can start picking her crew for the U.S.S. Ten Forward - A. I don't mind being first officer either if no one else wants the job, otherwise, I'd still be happy with second officer.

    Ah, that would explain why avatar looks like it could be an auto-lathe or something. :confused:

    Wait wait wait, what does ablate actually mean?
    -googles-
    1. Medicine To excise, amputate, or otherwise destroy the biological function of (a body tissue, for example).
    2. To remove by erosion, melting, evaporation, or vaporization.

    Oh boy, this job's gonna be worse than my last one.... :rolleyes:

    What, you accept the position of Ablative Security Person?

    Well, since our local yeti has taken up the role of Security Chief, I guess I can take the role of Tactical Chief. ;)

    I ... guess. What does that translate as? Faceless Redshirt who can die several times in each episode?

    No, more like the RedShirt who would die but never does.

    Those are Space Marine positions. And there are no girl Space Marines. Maybe...

    There is a theory on the internet out there that one or both of the missing Primarchs were female, but that is just silly.

    But Commissars can shoot people for little to no reason, get an awesome hat and coat, and a sword.


    Failing that, some kind of magical girl. Engineer is already taken.

    Ship Counselor then?

    Actually, there's an Officer position and non-com for Engineering, Tactical, Medical and such.

    If by Counselor you mean 'Counsel you with the business end of this weapon I'm holding' then sure.

    I think i'll submit my candidacy for Warp Core Specialist. As long as no one turns on the anti-matter flow while I'm in there, we'll be fine.

    P.S. Contrary to popular belief, feeding engineers to the warp core do not increase efficiency, it's either you feed it, Borg Tribbles, or toss in "Red Shirt #2" in.

    I'll be either the councilor or Q. I promise I'll actually get a pilot's licence if I'm the councilor. But Q is my favorite character.

    Also I nominate HomesickPanda as the Captain/ ships's pet.

    Q has been removed from the Semi-Essentials due to the fact that I have not yet been able to work out how having a Q on board would work without being overly overpowered.
