“Dammit! You can’t do that!” the Human in the gold uniform of Command shouted. “Uh… of course I can.” replied the young Efrosian male who was dressed . “No! You can’t take three attacks in a single turn! Your character-” and the Efrosian interrupted with “Has Dual-weapon weilding as a core skill for being a Gunfighter, plus the Showdown specialist subclass grants one extra attack on every other turn. You’re just mad because Im mopping the floor with your BBEG.” The Human glared and said “No. I’m mad because everything we play Outlaws and The Posse, you pokerface a character that isn’t supposed to exist in the game!”

Xam Ra’Ti, the Efrosian with the long white mustache, sat at the table with his feet up on it and grinned and said “If they aren’t supposed to exist, then why are there rules for them?” The Human said “You know what, Xam? Go fu-” and there was a ringing if the doorbell. “This isn’t over!” the Human said. They walked to the door and came to a quick attention. “Sir!” A figure stepped in wearing a gold 7niform and Commander rank insignia.

Xam stood up and the figure said “Lieutenant Ra’Ti? Orders.” and he handed him a set of orders. Xam reviewed it and said “Um, yes sir. Thank you. When do I leave, Commander?” The man smiled. “I’m here to watch you pack, Lieutenant.”

A week later, a shuttle touched down on the deck of the shuttle bay of the USS Sentinel. The hatch opened and Lieutenant Xam Ra’Ti, Tactical Officer, stepped out and smiled at his new home.

Ra’Ti, Tactical

“Lt Xam Ra’Ti,” a female officer in command gold (judging by the lack of piping on her sleeves, an ensign), tall polished black boots, and auburn red hair, clipped across the bay floor. She was crisp, polished, poised, the epitome of an officer. She held out her hand, “Yeoman Rand. Welcome to the Sentinel. I’m to give you the tour if you wish before your meeting with the XO. Petty Officer McChevney will take your things to your quarters if you like.”

Yeoman Rand

Xam smiled a charming smile and said “Yeoman Rand. A pleasure. And yeah, I think that’d be a good call. Thanks.” Where as Rand was polished and professional, Xam exuded something… else. His attitude and posture was relaxed and almost carefree. His uniform was clean and presentable, but it was obvious that ‘looking the part’ was not his highest priority. His eyes darted all over, however; and seemed to take in details in a way that was almost… calculating.
