I've already said we have 3 scientists on the Shu Nidurninni, and now I need to generate them! As the Montca University is paying for 6 months of lab time aboard the ship for the Xyman system. Perhaps some anti-matter research? Going old-school with Citizens of the Imperium Scientist career.
Aurora Oaks, Lead Scientist
876B9A, 6 terms, age 42
Computer-3, Gravatics-1, Mechanical-1, Navigation-1, JoT-1, Leader-1, Admin-1
Working with strong computer models of the standard gravatic model, Aurora Oaks still has not achieved her PhD but is undeniably intelligent. She believes that the natural contra-terrain of the Xyman system may lead to a breakthrough. She has convinced the Montca University at Enris to charter the Shu Nidurninni to the Xyman system and is bringing along 2 of her graduate students. Easy going about anything other than gravatics, Aurora has procrastinated for her thesis work and thinks this trip whe will get a definitive paper to defend and finally get around to getting her doctorate.
Tora Beauchamp, Student
7447A7, 3 terms, age 30
Computer-2, Electronics-2, Medical-1
A loud yet clumsy woman, Tora has the perpetual imposter-syndrome. She is somehow loudly meek with a large voice for such a small woman. She also always has a bandage on somewhere as she is always getting hurt working on various projects. With her fellow scientists, she is hoping to get a paper out of this project and get her PhD.

Ivo Bardot, Student
8758B5, 3 terms, age 30
Computer-2, Gravatics-1, Grav-Vehicle-1, Carousing-1.
A boisterous man leaning to over-indulging and having the beginnings of a beer belly to show for it, Ivo already has his PhD but has been a student of Aurora Oaks for the last several years. He is really the one driving her to finally get her PhD. He gets along well with everyone it seems, though Tora seems to shrink down a bit around him.

The character generation process
Note: scientists get Computer-1 automatically, so the final info includes that bump.
started: 734797 ended: 7447A7, age 30
Term 1: Survived, and gets Electronic-1, Computer-1. She is leaning to the technical side and perhaps is the wone keeping the computers in shape. But she barely survived this term - maybe crossed the wrong wires!
Term 2: Survived, receiving Medical-1, +1 Education. No self-medication here, but as she is working on potentially dangerous projects, she took some medical training!
Term 3: +1 Dex, Electronic-2. Working a bit to be a bit less clumsy. And We'll leave her here at age 30, working on her PhD.
started: 876A7A, ended: 876B9A, age 42
Term 1: Survived, Leader-1, Admin-1. This looks like she will be the lead scientist.
Term 2: Survived, Gravatics-1, Computer-1. Specializing in gravatic theory?
Term 3: Survived, +1 Education, Mechanical-1. Learning to work on the machinery.
Term 4: Survived, +1 Education, +1 +1 Intelligence. Just getting smarter and learning more.
Term 5: Barely survived, JoT-1, Navigation-1. Several generic skills, oddly gets Navigation skill. Hoping to work on a lab ship I think!
Term 6: Barely survived, no aging effects, Computer-2, +1 Education. Leading her cohort on the ship.
started: 665A78
Term 1: Barely survived, +1 Intelligence, Gravatics-1
Term 2: Barely survived, Gun Combat/Body Pistol-1, +1 Intelligence
Term 3: Died. And the only one who actually picked up a weapon skill!
Started: 8756B5, ended 8758B5
Term 1: Survived, Carousing-1, +1 Intelligence. He must have been partying with the smart crowd.
Term 2: Survived, Grav Vehicle-1, +1 Intelligence. Well, someone needs to be able to pilot the air/rafts!
Term 3: Survived, Computer-1, Gravatics-1. Some actual scientist skills! And we'll have him at this point as well
