Froderick Engineer - Space & Cybernetics 7/27/2009 7:43:55 AM Level: 1 Experience: 0 Total Posts: 19	Froderick Hertzmann Name: Froderick Hertzmann Age: 43 Gender: Male Species: Human Weight: 186 Height: 5'9 Items: Large wheeled toolbox with power supply, arc-welder, plasma cutter, and other (minor) engineering gear. A cornucopia of wrenches, screwdrivers, hammers, hex keys, nails, screws, bolts, nuts, staples, anchors, ties, drill bits, screw bits, torsion locks, clamps, pliars, cutters, strippers, crimpers, wires, tapes, adhesives, bonds, oils, rubbers, gums, sealants, sprays, cleaners, and rags. Also a mid-range PDA with drafting software and a holographic I/O, with a little laser-ranging measuring device and level. Description: Froderick Hertzmann is the lead engineer at Grayson Territories, a mining colony in the outskirts of an unremarkable system. Usually dressed in dirty yellow overalls and heavy work boots, all two-dozen pockets, belt loops, snags, clips, and pouches filled with all manner of things that come in handy in a pinch. Life and background are uninteresting - he showed minor excellence during his education, mainly through diligent work rather than innate talent, and continued to work diligently throughout his career. At this point in life, it doesn't appear he can go 'up' any longer. The mining colony is expanding at a measured pace, no surprises are expected, the challenges he faces are the simple day-to-day difficulties of keeping the mechanical, electrical, and cybernetic systems of the colony running - anticipating items that can wear out, improving efficiencies, trying to keep up the pace of a growing operation. In other words, career death. His personal life is about the same - he never ended up getting married and settling down with a family; his odd-ball sense of humor and dedication to his work - and the remote location of the colony - just never led to that path. All his friends are better off in that way, it seems, except for his good buddy Teak (but Teak's a pretty weird guy too). The most enjoyment Froderick gets out of life is the maintenance and upgrade work he does on the ore trawlers and other foreign vessels that pass through. A considerable number of them pose as tugs and bulk carriers, but have equipment on deck that indicate otherwise. Understandable, then, that they choose a small and remote mining colony for the work, than one of the large commercial yards - which could surely provide a better price. This side business is interesting and exciting, and provides the colony with that little extra cash that always ends up being handy after a derrick collapses on an asteroid, or when a comet drake swoops in to wreak havoc. Froderick Hertzmann is looking for a 'sideways' move, tantalized by these jobs on the side; and what Jara Green has to say when she arrives back at the colony, just might be what he needs...

Vehicle: a rusty utility personal-transport pod. Can carry himself, as well as either a large tool box or a(n uncomfortable) passenger. More tools: Cybernetics kit - silicon wafers, roll of graphene, circuit etcher, nanotube growing/manipulating kit, nanoparticle cleanup nanobot foam, universal interface adapter for his PDA, macroscale (normal) multimeter, microscale multimeter, picoscale multimeter, nanoscale multimeter, electron microscope. Also: I added some more character background above. I figure all this junk will use up all his money. But who needs money when you have all this junk!
