FTL Shenanigans

The adventures of my many ships in FTL - Faster than Light.

Bright New Day
Crew
 * Ajax - Pilot. Died dashing through fire towards the medical bay.
 * Actene - Engineer. Burned to death at the helm after taking over from Ajax.
 * LOMI - Gunner. Managed to regain control of the ship during the fire, but perished trying to repair the door controls.
 * Jones - Ripped apart by a Mantis minutes after joining the crew.

The Bright New Day made it through three systems, largely accepting bribes, ignoring cries for help and killing the occasional attack ship. Sadly, an encounter with one such vessel in an asteroid field started a fire that spread and consumed the entire ship and crew before they could properly vent oxygen. RIP.

Dynasty I
Crew
 * Amanda Wade - Gunner. Died as the ship blew up.
 * Faisal Khan - Pilot. Died as the ship blew up.
 * Remi Marshall - Engineer. Died as the ship blew up.
 * Xemu - Engineer. Died as the ship blew up.
 * Charlie - Mantis Engineer. Exceptional at repairing shields. Died as the ship blew up.

The Dynasty had an eventful journey across the cosmos. Battling space pirates, mind-controlling aliens and rebel forces, they fought through three systems with low ammo and fuel before making what seemed like a last stand against the incoming rebels. Through some stroke of luck they survived and beat the enemy ship and staggered into the next system with what little fuel they had left. Sadly, they ran out of fuel once more and were blown to pieces when the rebel fleet caught up. The crew of the Dynasty fought valiantly, but in the end were no match for the ships that assaulted them.

The Spacecube
Crew
 * Darth Sidious - Human Pilot. Died as the ship blew up.
 * Darth Revan - Engi Engineer. Died as the ship blew up.
 * Darth Malak - Engi Gunner. Died as the ship blew up.
 * Oloffson - Human Engineer. Died as the ship blew up.

The Spacecube's time was short and sweet as it carved a bloody path through the galaxy. However, after a major energy crisis due to a lack of reactors it was left near-death. An offer to help out a friendly ship a short time later led to the ship's final demise as the hull exploded, bringing the angry crew down with it.
