OOC - Job swaps
Posted byPosted: Jul 25, 2006, 6:04pm
Hello everyone!
Just a quick note to talk about crew positions, we've got a lot of
characters assigned to Departments like Navigation, Medical, and
Security, but if you check the crewroster there's not so many in
Command & Drive Room staff.
Now this isn't a huge problem of course, as I know the Navigation and
Security jobs are the clearest jobs to post about and theres a huge
chance your characters will be pur forward for away missions etc, and
the Medical dept always has a lot of fun going on.
But my problem is when I'm writing Action posts and want some Drive
Room / Bridge style exposition / explanation to happen with the
Captain, there's no characters I can have him interact with.
We don't have "Star Trek" style bridge scenarios very often, but
sometimes its necessary for them to set-up certain storylines. As my
earlier Action posts needed Jed to interact with someone.
So what I'm asking is that if anyone wants to convert their
characters's jobs to a Drive Room related job it'd really help out,
and save me from inventing several characterless NPC's that we don't
care about.
Jobs I'm thinking of are Navigation Officer (plotting directions,
coordinates etc), Radar operator (the one that shouts out if theres
and enemy incoming), communications officer (the one who tells the
captain that someone's on the line, and has to put them on hold), and
Captain's PA / human target practice.
Its not as if we really post much about everyday jobs anyhow, but if
you want your character to get mentioned in Action posts a bit more
often, transfer to the Drive room!
Contact me, Andy Longman or Becca if you want your character to switch
jobs.
