Who is this character? Nathan Drake. Most people call him Nate.
Tell us something about them. He's been a professional thief/treasure hunter for a couple of decades now and is pretty good at both, but one is more of a lifestyle and one is a calling--it's the adventure and exploration and discovery he loves way more than just taking things that aren't his. After his obsessive focus on living up to the legacy of his supposed ancestor, Sir Francis Drake, nearly destroyed his marriage and got him killed a whole bunch, Nate began contemplating retirement before getting Space Kidnapped. His wife is also onboard and they've been dealing with marital strife recently, but hopefully this month will be better on that front.
How long have they been on the Moira? Two months.
What have they been doing? Nate did some pickpocketing to make himself feel better immediately after arrival but has been generally law-abiding since then. During the Caducan attack, he was a member of the offense team and tried to use his experience sneaking around to break into their shit during negotiations, but that failed. His day job is a general ed/language teacher despite not having finished middle school. Last month, he had a huge fight with his wife and splashed his drama all over the network in a drunk post. Then medical complications sent Elena into cryo right after, so he's been kind of a wreck but channeled his frustration at not being able to help her into doing some rescuing on the slave outpost.
What do they think of the captains? Fairly neutral. He doesn't trust them but he doesn't have a real reason to dislike or act against them.
Have they figured out a plan of action? It wouldn't be his first choice of residences, but when he's not fretting over his wife or dealing with the occasional shitty thing that happens to the crew, he is genuinely intrigued by getting to explore different planets and to a degree the ship itself. But he knows space is way beyond him, so he's mainly living his life and feeling things out still.
Is there something specific your character wants to do? When not dealing with personal or event-related drama, he's kind of into the teaching thing despite not being qualified. He also wants to find cool shit to climb. He's a simple man in some respects.
Got plans for the next month? If there's a calm period, he's going to invite people to attend a special movie night where they can learn about some of the history of his version of Earth through a popular television show. What he's actually inviting them to do is come watch DVDs of his wife's history/archeology TV show that he got in the mail.
What about plans over all? There is nothing I want more than a gang of cross-canon thieves to pull a heist at some point. Aside from that, Nate is figuring out who he is now that he's not trying to be a professional descendant of Francis Drake. It's just a little harder to do in space.
Specific CR? Positive and negative CR are both extremely welcome, as Nate is a wiseass and can be a dick and not everyone will like that. Scoundrels, people from Earth history, explorers, artists and people who like art are all especially good, but I also like seeing what random CR sticks, so I have no entry requirements. If your character is from a more unrealistic canon (not sure if that's the right word, since Uncharted is hardly realistic, but I'm thinking robots, a lot of anime characters etc.) and you want a somewhat normal dude to have his mind blown, Nate is your guy.
