The Premise: NASA launched a prototype space telescope way back in the 60s and its orbit is bringing it back around near Earth pretty soon. Because it's so old and only a prototype, NASA has junked the equipment needed to communicate with it, but the plans and specs for it have been declassified. Knowing all of this, a small group of particularly nerdy guys and gals has decided to go ahead rebuild all of the equipment and send it on another mission. Go.
Now that we've got a premise, the next thing we need is a cast of characters! Let's start with some nerds, hmm? Using a random character generator, one of our first nerds is Randy Hitomatsu, a manipulative villain who is a soldier-type person. Perhaps he is a mole from some sort of government or mercenary organization that wants to stop or hijack the mission somehow? He is also tall, but flabby and round, and has long wavy black hair and blue eyes. Next up is Corina Hue, who is cynical, yet law-abiding and enforcing. Every group needs a cynic and a mom, right? She's both, so watch yourself! She is short, with curly brown hair and black eyes. She wears a chain around her neck. Last for my bit of contribution is Stacie Jaouen, a vulgar vigilante-type. Perhaps taking over a defunct government space telescope was her idea, her way of sticking it to The Man? She's tall and has a well-defined body with coiled blond hair and hazel eyes. She also likes hair bands and head cloths. Okay, who's up next?
