Carter, Milton

From RPGwiki

A low-ranking, human shuttle engineer at an Earth spaceport, Milton Carter was assigned to make in-flight repairs to a RAM ship as it travelled to Mars. Having been given the security clearances necessary to join the group, and having shown some promise on the missions he was drafted into, he has yet to be reassigned.

Most of Carter's work back on Earth took place onboard short-range spacecraft, occasionally in combat situations. Through a mix of necessity, curiosity and boredom, he has developed a strength in jury-rigged repair work, often going so far as to illegally bypass basic security protocols in order to repair one ship system at the expense of another.

When working off-ship, Carter is easily bored, and applies the same jury-rigging skills to routine maintenance work, applying temporary patches and covering his tracks, and using the time saved to perform his own experiments into improving the power and efficiency of ship's systems, pushing them past recommended tolerance levels.
