"People don't think the Universe be like it is, but it is"
The year is 2X47, the Rimor was the first freighter of it's kind, carrying 100,000 metric tons of manufacturing equipment to Messier 64 to jump start their production capabilities. The colonies could do it themselves, but it was cheaper and faster to send them the practically prebuilt factories. The crew had never worked together before, save the engineers who had known each other for a few years, and were a little too comfortable with each other. It very rarely interfered with their ability to work, but no one really noticed. This was their third voyage together, but it would certainly be their most memorable.
Character list:
--Captain James: 36, a seasoned freighter and a bit of a no-nonsense kinda guy. Has a prosthetic right leg.
--Dr. Meredith Jones: 34, this pretty brunette general physician is meant to be the ship's doctor. She's a really good doctor, it's just that the ship's robotics are better.
--Officer Mattis Jax: 30, chief of security, he runs the five robots that make up the ship's security. He's pretty lax, but good in a pinch.
--Engineer Todd: 25, this is his first assignment as the lead engineer. He has some trouble keeping it professional with his two subordinates, not that they mind.
--Ensign Janice: 22, an average engineer with an above-average weight. This bottom-heavy blonde mans the control board in the engineering level and is the ship's lead IT.
--Ensign Sam: 24, this plucky thin red-head is the head of maintenance for the ship. She's very adept with technical repair work.
There is also about 10 other generals laborers on the ship meant to help with the cargo. Do with them as you like (i.e., all female or all male or something, anything really)
I'd like for these stories to focus on the Engineers, but do as you wish. Use all the characters, or don't.
The ship was just beyond the point of no return when the abnormalities started to set in
Prompts:
1. Food Processor Failure. When ordering food, the crew mate must scan their ID, this tracks their nutritional and dietary needs. However, what if the Food AI were to experience an error(or be hacked) to triple the calories of food for women?
2. Extra Life Support. Something in life support is causing a gas(?) or at least something that appears to be a clear, odorless gas to seep into the ship and fatten the female crew members.
3. Abduction. While in the middle of deep space, the ship is attacked and all compliant crew members are abducted. What could these aliens have planned for the crew?
4. A Strange New Planet. Upon arrival to Messier 64 the ship malfunctions and crashes into an uncharted planet. Some of the flora and fauna, when ingested, has strange effects on the crew. What could possibly happen?
