Editing Aulikki Kärkkäinen (section)

== Background ==
Kärkkäinen arrived on the ''Columbine'' sometime in the last two years, wanting to grab data from the ship that a new planetary scan had revealed. Her own crew and ship got eaten by the planet, and she barely managed to throw herself into the ''Columbine'''s cryo storage as a last-ditch measure. She's hoping and praying that someone got her distress call, but radiation storms at the time made that likelihood questionable. (And perhaps there were other reasons a distress call might have gone unanswered.)

Last she saw them, her military-grade drones were nearly out of ammo. She set them into a defensive, self-protective but otherwise docile state, expecting that they'd harvest the necessary resources from the ''Columbine'' to replenish their ammo supplies by the time she emerged from cryo.

She'd grabbed the most critical elements of her research lab before abandoning her ship (research kit), which can be the foundation of a new lab, but she'll need to rebuild.
