Queen of the Lost Chapters
Name: Carrie Bowman

Age: 36

Personality: Generally a quiet person, Carrie often keeps to herself, but is cheerful and often caught whistling to herself as she works. Most definitely a workaholic, she always has some project (often multiple projects) in the works somewhere between the stages of planning and nearing completion. When first meeting people, she often falls back on a subject she knows well, being mechanics and can talk at length about it. She is the type of person that becomes a completely loyal friend after she gets to know someone, and will often break the ice with newer people when she doesn't have work that needs doing. If she has a friend in need, she bends over backwards for them without expecting anything in return. And she definitely talks a lot more with friends, less about mechanics and more about personal lives and interests beyond machines.

Appearance: Dirty blond hair, blue eyes, curvy and standing around 5 foot 4 inchesť, Carrie is not what one would call an imposing figure. Carrie dresses in fitted clothing, so as not to get clothing caught in machinery. Usually she wears coveralls that are stained with grease over her "normal" clothes underneath. Almost always there is a tool belt over said coveralls with various tools in it, and steel toed boots on her feet. Her fingers are stained, the nails short but still sporting the typical dark coloring that tends to come with her profession.

Equipment: Various sets mechanics tools in a couple of different bags, a Baretta 9mm (for protection only), a few changes of clothing, nearly all of it stained with grease in someplace or another and a small cortex unit which is usually has smudges on the screen

History: Carrie was born on Beylix, though because of a difficult birth she was left with only a father. Carrie's early life was happy, despite the early tragedy of losing her mother, following her dad around as he repaired all kinds of machines. She began to tinker and showed a natural talent for mechanics. Her life would have continued along this simple path had fate not gotten involved.

At the age of ten, her father was involved in an accident that crushed both of his legs. With no one to care for her, she became the caretaker and began taking on some of his jobs, though usually under the watchful eye of her father's best friend, Gordon Young. Much to the surprise of her father's employers, Judd Salvage and Reclamation, she could handle some of the smaller jobs quite well. As she grew older, they gave her more complicated jobs and she was always eager to get them completed.

Her father managed to earn a small salary fixing smaller machines, but he was never the same. One night, at the age of 16, Carrie came home after a long day and found her father still in his bed. He'd passed during the night before. It took her a while to fully get over the loss of her only family, but with the help of friends she worked with, she was able to move on with life.

After a couple of years, Gordon noticed she wasn't finding things on Beylix much to her interest anymore. He suggested she go try and find a job out in the black, aboard a ship. At first she balked at the idea, but after much persuading, she went out looking for a job. The first job she had fueled her curiosity in ships and ship engines. Again, the mechanics seemed to come naturally to her. Once she'd learned as much as she could about one type of ship, she moved on to another, though usually leaving each ship with no hard feelings.

Primary Skill: Carrie is first and foremost an accomplished mechanic. She's spent enough time building and repairing engines that she can rarely explain and generally sticks to simple explanations and a simple "I'll get it done". Smaller machinery usually isn't much of a challenge either, however computer systems aren't quite her forte. She can manage them after some experience out in the Verse.

Secondary Skill: One talent she doesn't often have time to share is her ability to cook. After spending a great deal of time helping around the home for her father, she learned to be a fairly good cook.
