===Stunts===
'''Engineering: I can build that!''' > All the time time spent growing up and perfectly building anything mechanical or technical with not much more than junk and a partial set of jury rigged tools means that you can build things easily. : I have no penalties to Engineering rolls to build things due to insufficient tools or parts. 

'''Engineering: Easy fix is what that is.'''> Since you've always been able to look at and fix anything technical or mechanical, no matter how bad it looks, all you need is a bit of time and your tools.: Spend a Fate point to repair any damaged tech, no matter how damaged.

''' Pilot: You can't out fly me!''' > With an almost instinctive feel for flying, and a real need for speed, not much can outrun you or get away from you. : +2 to all Pilot rolls in chases, and +2 to chase-based rolls in vehicle combat.

''' Shoot: Oh did you need that?''' > You prefer not to destroy a craft and kill everyone on board unless it's truly needed. So if you can cripple the vessel, you do so. : When I hit successfully, I can force the opponent to declare a particular system damaged as a Consequence. If I do, they take no other damage from the attack.

'''Background'''

Anastasya, or Stasi as her friends call her, is the Professor of Applied AstroEngineering and Micro Crystalline Power Structures at Nexus Interstellar University, who because of her Commission in the UP Aerospace Command, is in active duty and currently assigned to be the pilot of the UPSP ''Ponderosa''. Her first assignment was with the Section commanded by then Flight Leftentant Kat Cartwright, and she ended up being her wingwoman through the many battles and adventures with the 193rd Air Wing, ''the Sunset Angels'', until Kat's promotion to Captain and subsequent transfer. Stasi was then transferred to assist Dr. Haphzhing with his engine designs until the ''Ponderosa'' needed a new pilot which she volunteered for since she had a hand in making the engine. Her callsign is ''Stormwind'' 

She got her nickname of ''MadGirl Extraordinaire'' when she was still a teenager, because of her "Times of Sparky Madness" when she designs, builds, rebuilds or just plain slaps together components for any number of scientific items of many different things. Her Jetpack is a design of her own that she sold to Sakura Aerospace as part of their bid to build it for the CSM. Hers though, has been "modified" by Stasi to have better, longer flight time, be more robust and even more compact than usual. Her other gear have been either built or "modified" by her.  

Stasi was the last assistant who worked with Dr Haphzhing with his engine designs and the formation of the crystal manifold system that allowed greater speed and manuverability with no loss of power or wearing of the components. The last series of ships that received the new drives were the last of the Tahoe class ships, including the ''Ponderosa''. One of her quirks is that she can "feel" the vibrations if the crystal in the engines and likes to harmonize with them when in transit. Usually while doing so she gets hit with her "Sparky Madness" and has to either build something or at least write it all down for later.

'''Description'''

Stasi is 5' 8" tall, with a slightly curvy but very athletic build. She is fair skinned but usually is well tanned in her arms and face. Her hair is red with lighter highlights and deep blue eyes. She prefers boots and pants with a button down shirt and a leather jacket with fingerless gloves, over any kind of skirt or dress, when off duty. While on duty she wears her UPAC flight suit with both the old and new command patches on it.
 
She currently carries a messenger bag at all times with star map, ship identification and repair manual data slates and 2 small tools kits. The tools are for inventing and repairing things. She carries other small items of a daily need that changes often, i.e. bottle of water, lunch, twine, etc.. There are also always 3 journals held shut with elastic bands and writing implements inside them in the bag. There is one with a black cover, one with a blue cover and one with a green cover. The green is for her navigation notes, translations and maps she jots down. The black is for her ideas for inventions and modifications of current equipment she thinks of. And she has never let anyone see what is inside the blue one.
