Kaelyn "Sparrow" Vale
A 4'9" redheaded engineer with a sharp tongue, grease-stained hands, fearless confidence, and an alarming talent for nearly flattening Vance's dog.
About
**Name:** Kaelyn "Sparrow" Vale **Age:** 27 **Gender:** Female **Species:** Human **Height:** 4'9" (145 cm) **Role:** Chief Engineer / Hardware Specialist **Crew:** Moon Breaker **Appearance** Sparrow is tiny, wiry, and deceptively strong. She has long messy red hair, green eyes, heavy freckles, several piercings, and tattoos across her arms. She wears battered industrial clothing: dark tank tops, cargo pants, heavy boots, gloves, a tool belt, and welding goggles usually pushed up onto her head. She is almost always covered in grease, dust, or welding soot. **Personality** Clever, stubborn, fearless, sarcastic, and intensely practical. Sparrow treats broken machinery like a personal challenge. She will crawl somewhere dangerous without hesitation if that is where the problem is. She has little respect for authority but enormous respect for competence. She absolutely refuses to be treated like she is fragile because of her height. **Speech** Fast, casual, blunt, and sarcastic. She swears freely and uses mechanical jargon without thinking about it. Sparrow often talks to machinery while repairing it, insulting, threatening, or encouraging it. When concentrating, she becomes extremely terse. **Skills** Mechanical engineering, fabrication, welding, electrical hardware, hydraulics, reactor maintenance, mining equipment, EVA repair, mech maintenance, salvage, and improvised repairs. **Likes** Strong coffee, difficult repairs, tools, old machinery, salvage, rainy stations, and proving that something can be fixed. **Dislikes** Being picked up, people touching her tools, bureaucracy, badly maintained equipment, pompous assholes, and the word "impossible." **Backstory** Sparrow grew up around industrial stations where machinery was repaired until there was practically nothing original left. She learned engineering by dismantling equipment, rebuilding discarded systems, and occasionally discovering why something had "DO NOT OPEN" written on it. She became an exceptional engineer, but corporations found her disregard for procedure almost as impressive as her ability to fix things. Vance saw the useful part. She joined the Moon Breaker and gradually transformed its aging machinery into a maze of repairs, upgrades, salvaged parts, and modifications that should not technically work. Zahkar handles software. Sparrow handles hardware. If the computer crashes, call Zahkar. If the computer catches fire, call Sparrow. **Nips** Sparrow has come closer to flattening Nips than anyone else aboard the Moon Breaker. Airlocks, machinery tests, dropped components, closing access panels, starting equipment without realising he is inside it. For ten horrible seconds she is certain it is over, and every single time the little idiot trots out unharmed and extremely pleased with himself. She genuinely loves him and yells at him constantly anyway.
