Player name: abby Player pronouns: she/her Contact(s): PM, prosodi, prosodi @ disco (plurk adds are welcome, but heads up that I mostly talk about boring RL stuff like hiking trips and work) Time Zone: PST Tagging habits/tagging speed: Steady, mostly evenings (I work 9-5...when I'm not working OT); I try to clear my inbox once a day-ish. I'm too slow to really be considered a boomeranger at the best of times, but I'm happy to prioritize important threads! Heads up that I slow down during the last week or so of the month for real life job reasons. Favorite types of characters to write against: I tend to play characters who are very Goal Oriented Individuals, and gravitate to writing against characters who will either enable or oppose them (or can be willingly/unwillingly dragged along as a co-conspirator). I usually play real jerks so am a Negative CR enthusiast by trade, though Maureen is ostensibly surface level nicer than most of the characters I play sooooo 🤞

Character Name: Maureen Robinson Park??? Character Age: 48 Canon: Lost in Space (2018) Canonpoint: "Danger, Will Robinson", S1E10; just got sucked into an alien rift in space. :( 1 paragraph summary of character/canon:
Maureen Robinson is a, quote unquote, "scary smart" aerospace engineer turned space explorer-slash-survivalist from the not so distant future. She and her family—three kids, one estranged-recently-reconciled husband—were part of a colony group bound for a distant planet when disaster struck, and their shuttle crash landed on an unknown planet. While Maureen didn't set out to get...lost in space..., she's wasn't exactly an unwilling adventurer either. Quick witted and ravenously curious about the universe at her fingertips, Maureen thrives under pressure and she thrills at a challenge. She loves reason, and lists, and math, and clever solutions to complicated problems that are trying very hard to kill you. It just so happens that she also expects everyone else to similarly flourish in the same circumstances; living up to those expectations is a sure fire way to earn her respect and affection. Crumpling under them is a great way to lose it.
“Family” members: Ricky Park (yupe), ""husband"" Possible non-event hooks:
Want to spin conspiracy theories about the how's and why's you ended up here? Maureen's your gal.
Want to do some less than conformist poking around? Let's get into some trouble.
Willing to be a data point in a time/space distribution census, or other 'what do we all have in common?' type mystery solving? Maureen's interested.
Maureen is a space faring science mom. This isn't her first rodeo with either showing up places she doesn't expect to OR nuclear family dynamics.
Want to talk about the not so distant Earth future or space stuff? Let's compare notes.
What are they up to in Sweetwater? Emotionally: Freaking out, but also it's fine! She's seen worse! She has everything under control! Otherwise: Trouble. One of Maureen's first goal is going to be collecting materials to build a radio transmitter (she'll be initially operating under the assumption that her family is also somewhere in the surrounding area and needs to be flagged down). If/when that gets kiboshed.......watch this space. Misc Notes: Maureen is a genius math and science nerd, while I as a person am Definitely Not Those Things. I do my best at faking it, but if you catch me beefing the science or math (which she unfortunately talks about A LOT) then please don't hesitate to reach out to me oocly to tell me I'm being dumb so I can fix it lol.
Most Desired CR: Any, all! That said, Maureen loves a mystery and loves Doing Something About It, and will happily recruit and/or expect other people to be just as interested in that as she is. But if you're well sick of the How Did We Get Here and Why type threads, let me know and I can gear her in a different direction. đź‘Ť Undesired CR: Whomst? Any threads you really want to play out? No specific desires, but if at some point we don't start a Bridge Club or something as cover for secret neighbor meetings then what are we doing here.
