Huzzah, it's up for posting! Let's see...

Suggested Character Roles
The Face
The Engineer
The Thief
The Hulk/Tank
The Pilot
The Mage
The Psi

Looks like we've got a mage (Jade), a pilot, a face, a psi, a thief (maybe the same one, given three psi-ghosts and two mind melters)... what else?

In Sea Serpent's case, even if he is "bad" by himself, he is also very loyal to his "captain," so if the captain is good, he will be able to keep him in check.
One of his rolls included a vehicle, and I chose a submarine as an auxiliary vessel for the main one.
But if it is better for the party, his vehicle can be the big submarine that the team uses, as the GM prefers.

The Engineer - ?
The Thief - "Al"
The Hulk/Tank - Goliath
The Pilot - Sea Serpent
The Mage - Jade or "Al"

An NPC engineer could be added. But many of the rolls seem to be getting filled. A dedicated engineer would make sense as someone who spends most of their time kn the ship.

Having an engineer NPC who stays on the ship is reassuring from a PC point of view, as they can guard the ship from being stolen when the rest of the party is on a mission. And then repairs always take exactly the most dramatic amount of time! :) Perhaps said NPC is agoraphobic...

Which reminds me, what's our motivation for being a team, there was some discussion of a common enemy, or everyone having an enemy or problem that drew them together or keeps them as a group. If our Bottom Feeder is a Coalition vessel, skull and all, there must be an interesting story about how we acquired it, maybe from fighting the Coalition Navy!

Not sure where I got the idea, but I've been operating under the idea that we all worked for a guy who recently died/retired/otherwise decided to leave the company and now, somehow, *we're* collectively "in charge"...oh, and btw, there are a bunch of contracts outstanding we have to figure out how to fill.

But that whole idea may have spawned in my head based on someone's stray comment and have nothing to do with our actual set up. :)

Throdin Foecrusher overlaps a few roles and leads on others. Overlap PA jock / tank, primary repair / engineer, and a little bit of piloting. He will have the Ace edge in an advance or two.

I had suggested perhaps we all had previous mercenary company experience and had decided our respective leadership wasn't handling business correctly, so we all branched out and started our own concern. I like your idea better though.

In Sea Serpent case he is "bound" to the captain, and will follow him/her loyally.

About having more than one pilot, it is a good idea. Sea Serpent had his own smaller submarine that can be used, if needed, in tandem.

That could have been a "mystery" boss, an unseen one like Charlie from Charlie's Angels, or Oracle from Birds of Prey has been from time to time. So they said "You're on your own now" and left us some files and contracts.

I mean....we don't need an NPC engineer with Throdin on board. But if we're looking for flavor NPCs as part of the staff of the company, that's fine.

Perhaps one of the infamous Rifts alien invasions occurred. A rag tag fleet was slapped together and you guys are either the surviving crew or came in later. The “organization that organized this special fleet is gone but like this sub the remnants of the fleet went out in their own. So perhaps 6-10 additional vessels if different types still exist from the fleet.

Actually this does present interesting back story material.

The ship itself would have security and you could even have a robot brain plugged into it. To monitor security.

There will be an “Adventurers Guild” where you guys can find missions if need be.

A part I’m trying settle in is “cost of living.” This way you guys will have a periodic. Deduction in funds.

Next step is, what is the goal of the funds. I actually started a massive list if magic items like Ring of Notice +1. Stuff like that and I like running random generators and getting weird ideas.
Hat of Absorbs Radiance - this one sounds like darkness
Vest of the Chaotic Sigil of the Haunted Elf - I have no idea but it sounds like it could be something interesting.
Pricing wouldn’t be insane either. A ring with 1 minor would be around 50K.

Additionally if we were recruited into an emergency naval force against an invasion...

The party would have had an intense bonding experience to draw them together AND a common enemy... some of the invaders might have survived and hold grudges!

Okay, so...

There was an invasion. We all got conscripted to work on a Sub. When the invasion ended, things happened and the paperwork on our sub as "lost" and it ended up transferred to us thanks to some mental juju from Phillip and a bit of Forgery and Smooth Talking from Al.

Now, we have an expensive vehicle to maintain and need to find jobs that will cover it. Sound about right?

As far as relationships go, Al is pretty personable and would get along with most everyone, even if he does give Throdin a bit of a hard time.

I had been thinking it wasn't conscripted, but hired... someone with a lot of money but not much fighting prowess put out the call. Given that it's a stealthy sub and RIFTS characters can be as, or more, powerful than some mounted naval weaponry, the plan might have been for these subs to get their crew aboard enemy vessels and wreak havoc. Perhaps like Area 88, with payment based on kills.
