Setting Gundam with the serial numbers filed off. It is some vague time into the future and humanity is starting to move into space, mostly in Space Colonies, or large space stations containing entire cities and habitats. With various treaties limiting how much the people of Earth can interfere in the lives of colonies, the era of the private military contractor is at its greatest.
So then one PMC, Kestrel, started snapping up all the smaller ones until they were big enough to take a shot at conquering all the space colonies into an empire and unifying space under one banner by force. It's a tense time, there are giant robots, there are space psychics, there are tragic clones. All that good shit.
Background/History Avanti Kadam has had a long and storied career as an officer of various military spacecraft, including some 20 years directly in the captain's seat. Her last official command was aboard the outdated attack carrier Osiris, under Kestrel's orders. When Kestrel ordered her to stand by while a civilian space colony was attacked, Kadam and her crew chose instead to go rogue and launch a one ship rebellion against Kestrel's bid for power.
In the final battle, Kadam sacrificed herself and her ship to defeat Kestrel's leader in a dramatic ramming attack while simultaneously swordfighting her former lover on the burning wreckage of her own bridge. But the two of them miraculously survived and reappeared later in the story as overly dramatic space pirates to save humanity again.
CR Wishes - Older characters. She's in her 50s, which isn't so bad with super future medical tech, but she's still visibly Not Young anymore - Military characters. She's been in military service since she was like 18, and it's really the only life she knows. Extra points for people with command experience - Ladies. She's a lesbian. - Sci-fi characters. She's from a world with spaceships and giant robots and asteroid bases and all kinds of crazy stuff. - Whatever else you've got!
