Crew of the Void Chaser

Author's Notes

Character ages are in equivalent Earth years. This does not equal biological age as compared to a human. Notes about that are below (years are in earth years):

Regalti mature at roughly the same rate as humans until their early 20's, then they age much more slowly until the end of their lives, spending around 30% longer in their prime adult years.

Elya, Raini, and Leni are in their early 20's and biologically are pretty close to that of humans in their early 20's.

Kaline is 52, but biologically is around 39, Cordir is 83 but biologically is around 66. Yotar is 39 but biologically is around 30.

Vusinor age and mature at the same rate as humans, but their species modifies their bodies so much through tech and biology it's impossible to tell how old they actualy are.

Sharli is pretty close to that of a 20 year old human.

Xal and Abold both have heavily modified biologies and are as physically capable as any human in their mid 20's.

Maorians take 50 years to reach what other species consider their teen years, then another 50 to reach adulthood. Then they are almost immortal...almost.

Due to genetic engineering, The Yil reach adulthood by 10 years of age then depending on their environment can live to only 50 years or well past 500 years. They are in their adult prime until just a decade or so before their death when rapid cell degeneration occurs.

Main Crew

Uul Se'Corvil

Captain of the Void Chaser

Age: 2077 years
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Corvil, Anaui
Homeworld: Vanuitia
Home system: Aquron

Military Rank: Admiral

Uul commissioned the Construction of the Void Chaser around 250 years ago from the Regalti based Lanthium Launch Alliance, and is one of a dozen ships in his collection. He has continuously upgraded the ship over the decades, adding Vusinor based Antimatter pulse engines once they approved the Regalti to start using the technology, installing Maorian based communication arrays, and more. The ship hardly has any original parts other than its frame.

Respected across the Cairn Sector, Uul regularly does peacekeeping missions for the major powers there. He also regularly does mercenary work. His latest contract is with the Vusinor Research Authority to visit a mudball planet in the middle of nowhere.

Void Chaser - Mission Record

Kaline Serna

Master Pilot

Age: 52 years
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Barun-Deth, Vefaria
Homeworld: Collena
Homesystem: Delvi

Kaline is the primary pilot of the Void Chaser and has flown missions for Uul continuously for nearly two decades and has 30 total years of piloting experience. She's flown mainly medium scout ships like the Void Chaser as well as several different models of fighter craft. She is so adept at flying some starships that she could fly them between city buildings and in large caverns without the assistance of autopilot.

Kaline is second in command of the Void Chaser and has the highest non-comissioned rank on the ship. She tends to act motherly to the younger members of the crew, giving them guidance, making sure they are following orders, and keeping tabs on their well being. Raini tells her at least once a day to retire, start a family, and stop annoying her. The other younger crew members don't mind as much and like having someone they can talk to.

Abold Lorvitor

Weapon Specialist

Age: 74 years
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Kunwold Megacity
Homeworld: Kunwold
Homesystem: Venjint

Abold's job is to operate and maintain the ships weaponry. He is also one of the ship's pilots of the ship's fighter craft. He is third in command of the Void Chaser.

He can best be described as a gun nut, and he knows quite a bit about many, many different weapon systems. Abold has quite an impressive collection stored on the Void Chaser, from Regalti Gauss guns to Vusinor Plasma guns and Maorian Volcano guns. He's also traded with Sseterri ship captains and has added some Earth weaponry to his collection.

Abold also handles the crew's turret, pistol, and rifle certifications once every other year. Despite the ship having a dedicated mercenary squad, this allows everyone to defend themselves in emergencies, such as enemy boarding actions.

Cordir Kragan

Senior Pilot

Age: 83 years
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Kenvor, Tevaran
Homeworld: Collena
Homesystem: Delvi

Cordir is the scondary pilot of the Void Chaser. He's only piloted the ship for a handful of missions but has just over 6 decades of experience flying on numerous other ships of almost every size, working for Mercenary groups and the Regalti Allied Navy. He is almost as decorated a veteran as Sul is with forty times less time in the service and is one of the crew members to have served in military conflict. Time served is relative, as 40 years a pilot is an incredibly long time to Regalti, but barely a blink to Maorians.

Cordir is rather talkative at times, trailing on for hours telling stories about his many missions he's been on. He claims to have flown on 1,728 missions in his life and has a story for every single one. Many of the stories are based on his long career, but many are obviously embellished with details that do not seem possible. At least half of them involve himself as the hero in the story.

Yotar Verias

Master Fighter Pilot

Age: 39 years
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Okror, Sornath
Homeworld: Senon
Homesystem: Delvi

An expert fighter pilot that fought in the seventh Tula Colony war, Yotar's skills are said to be second to none in the current era. He flew the ANF-232 Space Fighter and led the Regalti Allied Navy to numerous victories. Yotar has 76 confirmed kills, 17 of them in a single combat mission. During one of his last missions, his ship crashed on Tula which is the closest planet to the system's star. The coolant system failed. He nearly baked to death while his co-pilot died right next to him. His skin and hair are almost completely colorless as a result. Yotar retired from the RAN after the war was over and now flies for the Void Chaser.

Compared to Cordir, Yotar is very quiet and reserved, and always completely serious. He spends most of his time working on the ship's fighters and is able to work on them as well as Zipk and Aran are able to. Otherwise, he spends hours and hours each day training in the flight simulator tuning out most things around him.

Wyorin Zipk XIX

Master Mechanic

Age: 133 years
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Zhorabirvyren
Homeworld: New Yil
Homesystem: Ilfillar

Zipk is the Void Chaser's master mechanic and his job is to maintain all of the ship's many systems and sub systems. His small army of maintenance robots helps with that too.

Zipk's grandfather, Wyorin Zipk XVII, was one of the original crew members of the Void Chaser. His father, Wyorin Zipk XVIII, was also a mechanic on the ship for around a hundred years. Uul makes a point to hire the Yil as mechanics due to their small size and extreme resistance to radiation, poisons, and pretty much everything else.

Zipk treats the Void Chaser like it is a living thing, speaking affectionately to it as if it can listen. He tends to tune out everything else around him, with his only concern the condition of the ship. Most Yil tend to get attached and act like this towards a piece of machinery they work on for a long period of time. Pretty much anyone would if they spent the last 75 years of their life maintaining and repairing every square inch of the Void Chaser.

Aran Se'noll

Mechanic

Age: 159 years
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Noll, Latano
Homeworld: Vanuitia
Home system: Aquron

At 159 years old, Aran is technically the second oldest crewmember aboard the ship, but is quite young for a Maorian. Aran is one of many starry eyed Maorians that grew up on the hellscape that is the Maorian homeworld and wanted to leave to better worlds the first chance they got. He didn't expect to be in space as long as he did, nor did he expect to be working under the legendary Captain Uul Se'Corvil.

Aran's duties on the ship usually involve assisting Zipk or Abold with maintaining the Void Chasers many weapon and life support systems. Lately, Uul has been training Aran on the responsibilities of a ship captain.

Uul has an agreement with the Orledon Grand Navy in Maorian space, taking on young Maorians and training them into proper ship captains within a few decades. Aran has been under Uul for around twenty years and only just recently was trusted enough to take command of the Void Chaser, temporarily.

Elya Sarai

Medical ensign

Age: 22 years
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Redsrei, Vefaria
Homeworld: Collena
Homesystem: Delvi

Elya grew up on a dying planet that the Regalti are slowly abandoning to live in space, but unlike many Regalti, she never wanted to leave her world. She even went to school for archaeology to help preserve her world's past, but, that's not really a job for a crewmember aboard the Void Chaser. On joining the military, she had to spend several years learning about medicine and is now a Medical Officer instead. Her areas of expertise is in Regalti and Human biologies.

Elya gets bored easily and does several things to try to stay sane out in the middle of space. She frequently puts on a VR headset and plays video games. She also practices the Sefadel Art of Rain in the meditation room, and quite enjoys beating up Raini whenever they fight each other. She would much rather be on her homeworld though.

Raini For

Medical ensign

Age: 20 years
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Carna-Ven, Lathin
Homeworld: Collena
Homesystem: Delvi

Raini is a cocky and immature know-it-all, which makes her quite annoying, though she can back up her claims of knowing-it-all. She learned medicine incredibly quickly. She knows how to treat conditions on a number of alien species including Regalti, Vusinor, Maorians, Yil, and Zarni. Unlike Elya who only knows Regalti and Human biology, Raini didn't learn it in a virtual world with sped up time either.

Raini can also learn languages and other skills with ease. She knows two Vusinor, three Regalti, and one Human language. She learned English mostly by listening to Elya practice it. Raini knows how to pilot the Void Chaser, as well as the ship's fighter craft. She can operate the ship's turrets and communication array. She even knows a little about how the fusion reactor works.

Sharli Marn

Communications Specialist

Age: 20 years
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Barun-Deth, Vefaria
Homeworld: Collena
Homesystem: Delvi

Sharli is a Vusinor that was 'born' on the Regalti planet Collena. Growing up, She originally has a warm and kind personality, but because of a revelation she learned about herself a few years ago, that she was a clone, an empty shell that the Vusinor wanted for another mind to occupy, Sharli became blank and existential.

Sharli hardly communicates with anyone, staying silent and never speaking. Paradoxically she is also the communications specialist aboard the Void Chaser, operating the various methods of long distance comms the Void Chaser makes use of. She has no problem talking at her job, but personally is almost always silent.

Sharli is the daughter-clone of Zilda Marn, who was one of the original crew members of the Void Chaser. Zilda lost her life around a decade ago. Kaline became Sharli's adoptive mother.

Iyan Leni

Pilot Ensign

Age: 23 years
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Korsta, Kronde
Homeworld: Sephar
Homesystem: Delvi

Iyan is a hot-headed young man who easily graduated at the top of his class at the RAN pilot's academy. In combat simulations, Iyan was able to take on every other classmate at the same time and defeated them all. Iyan got many offers from various ship captains to fly for them, but he turned them all down for a chance to fly with the Legendary Uul Se-Corvil.

On his first day on the ship, he challenged Yotar in the flight simulator and said some things he probably shouldn't have. Iyan lost and was humbled very quickly. Since then, he was barred from being able to fly the ship's actual fighter craft until he can defeat Yotar in the flight sim, which has not happened yet.

For now, Iyan is tasked with operating the ship's radar and weapon turrets, and when the use of the fighters are needed, Yotar, Kaline, and Abold fly them instead. Even Raini is allowed to fly the fighters over Iyan.

Mercenaries

Dovr and Cari are both veterans of the Seventh Tula Colony War. They were part of the Regalti Allied Navy and took part in boarding actions between fighting capital ships. The life of a Marine was...kind of awful, with a pretty short life expectancy. Somehow they got out of the war with only a few gunshot wounds and plasma burns. After the war they became mercenaries selling their services to whatever ship captain was willing to pay for them.

They ran into Xal and Den as rivals at first. The two teams were both raiding the same abandoned research station for a contract. Instead of killing each other (after shooting at each other for several minutes), they put away their weapons and peacefully finished their respective missions. A year later, Uul put out a contract for security aboard the Void Chaser. Many mercenaries applied for the job, wanting to having the honor of working for the Legendary Uul se Corvil. Somehow Dovr, Cari, Xal, and Den got the job. The four have been working together since.

Current Passengers

Currently the Void Chaser has four passengers they are transporting to the Delvi Star System. They are humans, named Ryan, Sarah, Asha, and Juan. The Void Chaser's current mission was supposed to be a secret one: Jet into the Sol System, get to Earth as fast as possible while avoiding detection, pickup four specific humans that the Vusinor had already made contact with a few decades ago, then get the hell out before the Sseterri Aliens and Human militaries were alerted. The ship had flight data pre-loaded, all they had to do was get there.

That did not go to plan. The Void Chaser crash landed into a house in central Florida, blowing it apart (because the preloaded flight data they had was decades out of date). Knowing what would happen if they wasted too much time here, the ship's crew picked up the unconscious bodies of the four closest humans at the time and quickly left. After that the four humans woke up on a strange ship surrounded by strange people outside the orbit of Saturn.

After a bit of panicking, arguing, one attempted escape, and a very long chat with Uul Se'Corvil and a few of the Regalti, the four humans reluctantly agreed to be humanity's representatives to the rest of the galaxy, starting the story.
