Change around in Engineering

Posted on Sun Apr 24th, 2016 @ 2:05pm by Captain Tim Williams

Hey everyone

Just a quick note about some changes in the Engineering department.

I haven't heard from Kessel in quite a while, and he's not responded to my PMs, so I've removed him now from our manifest. It's a shame, since he came over with us from the Endeavour and has been with us a while, but in a position like that I need to make sure that the people occupying them are still around, and unfortunately that wasn't the case anymore. Hopefully the player can rejoin us in another position at some point in the future.

Luckily for us, we have another engineer aboard already who can take up the position! Effective immediately, Lieutenant Griffen Tanol has been made our new Chief Engineer! We're still really close to the start of the mission, and since Kessel wasn't featured very heavily so far, I think that it's safe for us to just assume that Griffen has been chief engineer from the start and go with assuming she came aboard in the gap between our current mission and our last one.

I know posting-wise things have been a bit slow around here lately, but I'm hoping to be able to get back on top of that and get our posting rate increasing to where it should be again. I've already chucked one post out today to hopefully provide a bit of a push for the story - a little bit piece with one of my NPCs where we're showing some of the strange things people are experiencing on the DeSalle. As per the mission plot on the forums, this will be the 'ghosts' of the crew of the ship when it was split between two dimensions/planes/whatever. Feel free to build on that in some of your own posts, and in the meantime I'll start up a few more posts to get things going in that direction as well. It will eventually come to a senior staff meeting where we've realised that something is going on and need to figure out what to do about it - I'll try and decide exactly when that post will take place and what we'll know going into that soon so that I can get that post started sooner rather than later.

If anyone has any new ideas for posts that they want to run past me for your own characters, or if you're struggling to think of what to write about, let me know and I'll be happy to help.
