Background

John Soloman was born to human parents on the far outlying world of Teaatis in chart 1. From an early age his interests differed from most young people. Upon turning 17, he applied and was accepted to the space academy at Lave. Later, he went to work for a large trading firm out of Onrira. After two and one half years he was able to buy out of his contract to become an independent trader. It was during this time that he married and eventually moved his family to the pleasant world of Ontiat, which became his base of operations. His wife took a deep interest in the history of Ontiat and became an accomplished author of several works. The subject of her most successful book was none other than the aged Nynu A, a tale of betrayal, murder, and retribution that spanned half a century and more than half the galaxy. John received the moniker of Solo given him by his peers who either loved or despised him. There was only one black spot on his reputation which occurred early in his career. The full tale of that incident has not yet been released. We do know he was cleared of any wrong doing and, in fact, became a folk hero for an entire world.

Commanders Log

Commander Solo:
My current ship.png

Ship: Shuriken Mithril Maru
In-Game Time 1950 days
Pylon Equipment: 3 Hard Heads & 1 Fuel Tank
Character: Bounty Hunter / Assassin / Pro Bono Wingman
Location: Celaqula, Sector 6-05 Gandalf's Hat
Rating: Elite
Co-Pilot: LIZA
Shipmates: None Presently. Still fine tuning my Shipmates OXP.
News: Cruising the Maraus hub.

Approaching Celaqula one can't but notice a beautifully sunlit, multi-colored planet, with it's two moons and the planet Arvera, appearing small but far away. But this system frequently harbors many bands of pirates that, battle hardened, are skillful pilots indeed. It did not disappoint this trip and it was fortuitous for me as I filled my hold with their plundered goods.


Commander Andru:

Status: KIA

Black Box: Collision with shields low during fierce fight involving numerous hostiles and GalCop Vipers.

Commander Nimrod

Status: KIA
Rating: Average
Black Box: Turned to pursue Cobra Mk. III and failed to notice second hard head missile homing in.

AddOns

I use Unrestricted Mode but like my Ooniverse mostly Elite-like with a modern spin. All but one ship OXP's have their origins in some version of Elite, and it looks like it belongs as well.
