Jessica_Stark Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 Byond key: jessicastark Discord key: Jessica_T#1312 Character Name: Tish Nagata Item name: Light Spacer Magboots Item function(s): Lets you stick to the deck in null G. Does not protect from space wind or breaches. Item description: When you live and work in areas ranging from low grav to free fall, being able to walk is pretty important. Standard issue on most Spacer ships and stations, these boots magnetize to the deckplates without being as bulky or powerful as suit grade magboots. They're scuffed and worn, but well taken care of. Why is your character bringing this item to work?: Sometimes grav gens fail and it's better than flailing around, they let her feel secure without having to clomp around in hardsuit grade magboots, and they're the set she's worn for years, comfortably broken in to her feet and everything. How did your character obtain this item: Purchased in the Techno-Conglomerate six years ago, worn ever since when she's not at work. What value does this item have to your character, and what story does it tell?: They're her boots that have been with her for her entire engineering career, comfortable and reliable. To other people, they're something that exists because of the conditions she's spent her life in and a mandatory part of being able to live and work comfortably in null G. Sprites: Basically the Gray workboots, with a red light on the back of each boot and a line of engineering orangey-yellow above the sole to differentiate from the regular boots when in hand. @Happy_Fox has agreed to take the commission if it gets mechanical approval. Additional Comments: Bonus points if they make the magboot click noise when active.
ImmortalRedshirt Posted March 29, 2021 Posted March 29, 2021 Pretty neat idea, scarcity and limitations keep some semblance of balance, but honestly, I just really like anything to do with offworlders.
Peppermint Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 +1, Tish is fun and a good sport, plus seems to make sense for the character.
