| Well it just so happens that my companions and I have "aquired" a starship. It is a Wayfarer class medium transport. It has a crew of ten, forward guns, a quad laser cannon, and a modular cargo container that can double as a hanger for two starfighters.
Anyways, we are looking for ideas for a name. As usual we will probably be making lots of smugling runs(packages, spice, slaves ect) | |

| well we havent actually decided on who would be captain, but it most decidedly will not be me (too homicidal)
Well we have
Dr. Ketrias Pepper (Chagrian Male tech spec 4)
Dr. Pepper is our doctor, and the only one who has any formal education or regard for casualties. He's sort of our moral compass, not to mention our transport pilot.
Dack (male Human Fringer 4)
Decent in a firefight, Dack is often the first to rush into and encounter. He's our forward gunner, as he apt to patch things in a jam.
Boda Dobo (Human Male force adept 1 sol3)
Boda is sort of quiet merc who keeps his powers a secret. He tends to talk with his blaster rifle. Boda will most likely be a gunner
Grif or Grifington (Cathar Male Scout 4)
The Catman is a wanderer by nature, never liking to stay in one place for too long. He tends to favor using his claws to get up close and personal, and the children love him.
Nash Hendar (Human Male Scoundral 4)
Nask is slippery and a damn good mechanic, he's Rickys "computer guy" Nash is the slicer amd a pretty slick front man. He's also pretty good at keeping Ricky out of trouble.
Ricky Ticky (Human Male Sol 4)
well Ricky is my character, I am tring to keep him CN but at times he can slide to CE. He'a the guns of the group. A washed up swoop racer he owes more money than he can remember. He tends to clear a room pretty quickly, and that lack of hesitation has led to his continuing survival. He'll most likely get a hold of a head hunter and fly escort for the wayfarer.
Sometimes we refer to ourselves as the "A Team"

| Nash seems the logical choice for our captain (I'm Griff).
I do like the Soldier of Fortune angle we have going, how about naming the ship The Soldier of Fortune? [:D] | | | |

| I was thinking "The Vanguard"
vanguard
n 1: the leading units moving at the head of an army [syn: van] 2: any creative group active in the innovation and application of new concepts and techniques in a given field (especially in the arts) [syn: avant-garde, van, new wave] 3: the position of greatest advancement; the leading position in any movement or field [syn: forefront, cutting edge]
Or "The Vanishing Maden" ect....
this way we can call it "the Van" for short as in "Get in the Van" or "Where the hell is the Van"

| I'm partial to names of obscure weapons, perhaps as a nod to extreme ancient history in the case of the Star Wars Universe:
The Trident
The Gladius
The Sabre
The Rapier
The Falchion
The Halberd
The Battleaxe
etc...
The name invokes the danger of a weapon but would no longer be in common use during the ship's time and so would be a unique name. Just my 2 cents. | |
