A player character in the PbP game Daring Tales of the Space Lanes.



A dashing adventuress, heartbreaker and rocketship captain. Tall, dark and curvy, with thick, unruly hair and smoldering brown eyes. She wears a skintight red jumpsuit, thigh-high boots and an armored leather jacket. Though impulsive and temperamental, she's nevertheless a woman of ironclad principles and absolutely loyal to her crew (and expects no less from them in return).

The "D." stands for "Don't ask", pronounced with a silent glare.

She won the Blazing Star on a drunken bet (who knew Ahorean hoopshrooms really can be used that way!) years ago, and the notion of being the captain of a starship tickled her fancy, so she stuck with it and scrounged up a crew. After a rough start - it was only thanks to Grease she found out her original mechanic had been fleecing her rather shamelessly - the lifestyle really grew on her, and now she views the Star and her crew as not just a livelihood but a home and family.
