Vinni Firebrand

Vinni Firebrand is a player character played by SirSkully.

Vini Firebrand
Species & Gender: Some kind of fox-type thing
Organization: Firebrand Crew
Occupation: Leader
Rank: Captain
Current Placement: Firebrand Crew

Physical Description

Vinni is a 5’5” tall Daur or Neko type creature with a fit body and particularly strong looking legs connected to a plump, heart-shaped rear that is hidden underneath a matte black PAL suit with a ballistic vest over that and a helmet atop their head. They have a particularly impressive fox-like tail that is long and bushy as it playfully swishes around.

Vinni seemingly lives inside their ensemble and it’s almost impossible to discern what gender the Firebrand Crew’s captain is, with a voice that is synthesized through the helmet and mannerisms that just end up confusing the crew more.

Personality

Vinni is a person who likes when things go according to plan but is great at pushing through when they don’t, the short captain is a rather warm and welcoming person who has pretty relaxed morals about what the Firebrand Crew gets up to in their spare time so long as it isn’t anything along the lines of slavery or random murder – they are a fairly tactile person who enjoys showing affection to their crew through hugs and hi-fives and such, in addition the captain likes their music loud and has a thing for substituting alcohol with raw, unpasteurized milk.

Despite the captain’s generally warm and fuzzy demeanor they are fiercely protective of their crew regardless if it’s an old or a new member, always willing to hear out their plans and concerns or even suggestions of what they should spend their downtime doing.

History

Vinni Firebrand popped into existence in late YE 39 as they started a “high risk salvage company” aptly named “Firebrand Crew”, Vinni stays rather tight-lipped about the fate of the ISS Veilburner I and it’s crew as they intend to just move on from the whole incident.

In early-YE 39 Vinni put out the word they were looking for a new crew to help man the ISS Veilburner II, a Ge-E1-1a - Tenba-Class Transporter with beefed up engines and a burning desire for adventure in its conduits.

Vini Harada

Vini Harada is a player character played by SirSkully.

Vini Harada
Species & Gender: Nekovalkyrja, Type 33 Female
Year of Birth: Late YE 29
Organization: Firebrand Crew
Occupation: Leader
Rank: Captain
Current Placement: Firebrand Crew

Physical Description

Vini has a face rather atypical of the average Neko, she appears to be perhaps in her late teens or early twenties with a heart-shaped face, a smallish mouth with plump lips that sit beneath her mousey nose – Vini’s eyes meanwhile are large and almond-shaped with their brilliant golden hue, framed by her short bob of auburn that curls up her cheeks and flairs out slightly toward the back. Two prominent cat-like ears the same colour as her hair poke out the top of her head, with bits of white fluff coming out of her inner ear.

Vini has a fairly Neko-shaped body albeit with a somewhat more intense physique, she stands at exactly 5’5” with athletic curves. Beginning with strong calves that lead up to her powerful thighs, a firm, heart-shaped rear and flared hips transition into a midsection that hints at her powerful abdominal muscles and gives her a fit, healthy appearance. While not exactly flat-chested, Vini’s pear-shaped form isn’t too top-heavy either, with breasts on the smaller side that can usually be hidden by some bulkier clothing to give her semi-androgynous silhouette from time to time.

Personality

Vini likes it when things go according to plan, having started life as a MEGAMI she enjoys some sense of order where each member of a team know their place – she does know however that things rarely go the way and as such is a rather quick-thinker, great at improvising strategies at a moment’s notice.

Outside of combat and jobs she is a fairly easy-going individual who enjoys good company, respects proper authority and a roaring fire to lay down next to, Vini is a rather tactile person who enjoys hugs, handshakes and the like as a way of showing appreciation – as an extension of this, she feels most comfortable when her mind is plugged in to any kind of extensive system such as a ship or a database.

Vini is opposed to senseless and unneeded violence but has no issue with maiming and killing if she needs to do so for a good enough reason, she is also against slavery or anything involving children but is fairly relaxed about most topics such as politics and drugs so long as her crew keeps their heads in the game.

One odd quirk some people pick up on is the fact she doesn’t drink alcohol, instead having an odd obsession with raw, unpasteurized milk – in addition the captain likes their music loud.

History

Vini Harada was born into the SAoY in late YE 29, assigned to a ship and confined to a MEGAMI cradle from the moment she gained sentience. She did her job just as well as any other MEGAMI in any other ship, being efficient and respectful if not the littlest bit warmer than other SAoY ship intelligences.

It was the rather standard ship-ai experience for the most part, highs and lows, wins and losses and all that as she watched the crew form bonds all around her without any feelings of regret or jealousy – she even acted like a bit of a Mama Bear to some of the crew members who needed one in their life.

Then came the Battle of Yamatai in late YE 33 when her ship was destroyed, she would have never survived if it wasn’t for the ship’s tech-savvy logistics officer who threw Vini into her spare body and stayed behind to buy the escape pods enough time to get free from the immediate danger. Unfortunately not everyone made it out, as is the sad reality of war – many people lost themselves and their loved ones forever as ST backups were destroyed.

That logistics officer had given Vini a new lease on life though, so the ex-megami used the confusion and chaos in the aftermath to buy her way out and explore the galaxy on her own terms, so she worked hard and got herself a pre-loved Ge-E1-1a - Tenba-Class Transporter that she poured money and copious amounts of love into – deciding to start up her own mercenary company she named after a bottle of whiskey found under the pilot’s seat: Firebrand.
