Character Profiles

Commander Sarah Hawkins

Role: Commander of the Spaceship Blunder
Age: 46
Physical Description: Sarah is a strong and confident black woman. Her hair is typically styled in a curly ponytail, and she has a warm, inviting smile. She wears her uniform with a sense of pride and duty.

Bio: Sarah is the heart and soul of the Starship Blunder. Despite being the only truly competent member of the crew, she remains optimistic about their missions. She finds solace in her role as a leader and mentor to her crew. Her piloting skills are unparalleled, and she gets easily frustrated with the new pilots attempting to fly the new Wonder.

Xylo

Role: Ship Mechanic
Age: 33 (in human years)
Physical Description: Xylo is a tall, slender alien from the planet Zentara. His skin is a shimmering blue, with small, luminescent spots that glow when he's excited or agitated. He has large, expressive eyes and dexterous hands with extra joints.

Bio: Xylo feels jilted that Sarah received a promotion while he stills works as head mechanic. However, he has never successfully repaired a warp drive. Instead, he prefers to make cool gadgets and tools that may or may not work as intended. His understanding of human social cues is a work in progress, leading to humorous misinterpretations.

Commander Rex Sterling

Role: Commander of the elite Starship Prime
Age: 41
Physical Description: Rex is tall, with a chiseled jawline and perfectly styled hair. He has a commanding presence and carries himself with an air of undeniable confidence.

Bio: Commander Sterling is the poster boy for the elite Starship Prime. He is supremely confident in his abilities and his ship's superiority. He views Sarah Hawkins almost as a little sister, taking credit for her promotion. He constantly checks in with the new commander, offering her unsolicited advice for her new role.

Chef Bluebottle

Role: Chef
Age: 80
Physical Description: Chef Bluebottle is a short elderly man with wrinkly skin, grayish-blue eyes, and no hair—except for bushy eyebrows. He wears a dirty chef’s hat in all circumstances, like a security blanket.

Bio: No one is sure how Chef Bluebottle is still alive. A former gourmet chef from Mars, Bluebottle has lost his sparkle and culinary expertise. His cantankerous attitude and dismay at the limited ingredients available on Starship Blunder are reflected in the bland and sometimes inedible food he makes. He loves getting into other crewmates’ business and inserting himself into situations where he’s not welcome.

Luna Knight

Role: Daycare Teacher
Age: 23
Physical Description: Miss Luna is an average-sized young woman with pale skin, black hair, and brown eyes. She dresses in all black with an overall gothic style and never smiles. She has colorful tattoos of various space elements on her arms, which she uses to entertain and educate the children.

Bio: Although adults find her scary, the children aboard the Starship Blunder adore Miss Luna. She runs the daycare for the whole starship and enjoys incorporating bats into her lessons. She’s warm and engaging when talking to children but scary and unsettling with adults. However, that doesn’t mean she’s immune to the occasional romantic entanglement.

Sheriff Kojak

Role: Head of Security
Age: 65
Physical Description: Kojak is a short, rugged human standing at 5'1". He frequently wears a large cowboy hat and a silver sheriff pin with a lollipop clenched between his teeth. His personal transporter, painted in the black-and-white pattern of old Earth police cruisers, helps him quickly navigate the starship.

Bio: Born DaBears on Pluto, Kojak modeled his entire security career on vintage Earth police procedurals—mistakenly believing the dramas were official training videos. Though notoriously clumsy, he survived mission after mission through improbable luck. Now serving as the Blunder’s security chief, he approaches every situation with dramatic flair, unearned confidence, and investigative techniques inspired entirely by old TV shows.

Starship Details

Starship Blunder

The original Starship Blunder was a military vessel for the Conglomeracy, a small space federation. The old, rugged starship had been patched and repaired many times, giving it a quilt-like appearance. Unfortunately, the original Blunder blew up, taking the Gallantria Starport with it, and was clearly no longer spaceworthy.

Starship Wonder

Although technically new, the Starship Wonder was assembled using extra pieces, cast-off parts, and old components removed from other, nicer crafts. Its patchwork of components gives it a unique and somewhat comical appearance. Many of the parts are underpowered for such a large vessel, so Xylo and his team frequently make improvements that may or may not fail at inopportune times.

In a bold move, the Conglomeracy chose to refit the Wonder into a luxury cruise starship. This was a terrible idea.

Capabilities: Despite its underperformance (perhaps intentionally underpowered for the safety of the crew?), the Wonder is capable of interstellar travel, although Xylo’s upgrades are prone to glitches.

Crew: The ship houses up to approximately 150 individuals, comprising both crew members, their families, and passengers. This includes a melting pot of species, predominantly human, but with a significant representation of other alien species.

Level 1:

Bridge: Command center of the ship.

Vista Lounge & Bar: After-hours bar with excellent views of outer space.

Grand Dining Hall: Main dining room for guests serving lunch and dinner each day.

Wellness Spa: Overpriced treatments, including massages and facials, along with basic medical facilities.

Hologram Hall: Used for training and entertaining the crew.

Theater: Daily entertainment including films and live performances.

Pool: Just big enough to splash in.

Library: Quiet area with comfy seats and books to borrow.

Airlocks: Positioned for boarding and exterior access.

Level 2:

Chef’s Galley: Kitchen area.

Restrooms: Shared for crew.

Engineering Bay: Mechanic’s workspace with tools and equipment.

Atrium: Heart of the starship with lounge space, a café, and entertainment.

Terminus, Neptune

Neptune is the home planet for the Conglomeracy and Starship Blunder. It is presented as a habitable planet in this universe, with vast oceans and floating cities. The planet is known for its breathtaking views, with swirling blue storms and high-speed winds that are a spectacle to behold from the safety of the cities.

One of the floating cities of Neptune, Terminus, serves as the launching point for many of Blunder’s missions. The city is in the shape of a donut and completely enclosed to protect it from Neptune’s stormy weather.
