You guys are too kind. Here's a suggestion for NPC pilot. I know it's much too late to help Rob, but maybe next time
NPC Name Angelina S ("stage name" Angel)
Age:17 Sex: F
Strength: 8
Constitution: 8
Dexterity: 18
Movement: 15
Endurance: 15
Accuracy: 13
Charisma: 16
Psionics: 6
Luck: 11
Structure and Blood Points: (special: see below)
Blood Type: 0+
Hostility and Motivation: (see below)
Location: near the old Route 66
What everybody knows:
Angel is a trapeze artist with the
Silicon Circus and is the pilot of the Circus'
Paramotor. This is largely because she is a superb gymnast, very pretty and
very small: 4 foot 6 inches and 50lb. T{If you look at the picture, that unit she's standing on would be worn as a backpack by an adult male)
What some people know:
She sometimes operates as a scout and/or courier for the Circus. The paramotor is capable of more than low/slow flight and (on a good day) can reach over 2000 meters in height and speeds of over 50kph
Angelina is very quiet when not performing and has no really close friends, but the Circus would be VERY protective if anything threatened her
What very few people know:
The circus found Angelina walking along Route 66. Nobody (including her) knows anything about her family. As far as she knows, her last name really is just the letter "S"
The Medics who travel with the Silicon Circus suspect that Angelina is a mutant. She might simply be affected by something like dwarfism ("Proportionate Dwarfism") but her skeletal structure is surprisingly light. (note: Angelina's SP and BP are both lower than normal). They also worry that her body chemistry and hormone production are affected by her low weight
What nobody knows:
Angelina is a result of experimentation by the Breeders: an attempt to produce a specialised type of worker. The objective was to create a caste of operators that would fit inside machinery and be able to operate with high efficiency (drivers, pilots, and so on). This caste would also be conditioned to ENJOY flight, speed, etcetera. The plan was to save space and weight. In other words, smaller pilot means more payload
Angel never knew who the Breeders were and is not sure whether she was allowed to escape. Her nightmare is that she is simply being observed "in the wild"
