The daughter of prospectors, at age 16 she was forced in to marriage with her parents business partner (a man at the time three times her age) to keep the families stake alive in a prospecting co-op that at the time was still receiving royalties on a number of claims after they secured jobs with one of the big miners, her husband showed no interest in her beyond being a source of free Labor on the co-ops ageing Seeker (and possible bride for his son), over the next few years the royalties would play out and her marriage in practice if not legally would dissolve when her husband retired, for her 18th birthday her parents would give her their stake in the now worthless co-op and she found herself working a failing concern to support her estranged husbands retirement, through lean times, mini-booms and miners uprisings she would just make ends meet. her husband had offered many times to annul the marriage if she wanted if only she would instead marry his son from his first wife, she never did and on the same day she found out the seeker she owned had failed it's latest space worthiness test she would learn her husband had ended up face down in a startown gutter with his throat slit. She promtaly sold the Seeker for Salvage and used the proceeds to put a down payment on the Lucky Strike a Type J-200 and payout her husbands debts. she is currantly looking for crew to help her work the Lucky Strike.

Physical Description: of mixed Valini/Solomani decent her prominently Northern European ancestry is off set by her Valani and Latina ancestry, overall she has a completion and colouring of a fair skinned Latina, just below average hight for a Solomani female, slightly athletic she is still curvaceous.
 
Lucky Strike

ok the silly number of folks who ended up with Ships have all but pulled out, so I'm renameing the topic (or atleast trying to).

apart from Lela Burke the owner of the Lucky Strike there is,

Ally "Al" Stanzas, a Former Imperial Marine with Protected Forces and Gunnery training

Eric Danason, a Sword Worlds Belter who has most of his skills fall in to the Tech catagory, he may not be an expert (though he's still pretty good) but there isn't much he can't turn his to fixing.

and Ezri Mangzen, a Darrian former Special Arm Com-Tech and Medic.
 
The other ship owners who are bowing out

Hunter Gibson, 1 term Belter
