He'll probably just stay on the planet we're leaving, if he's retiring. Then there's no trope, and no awesome artifact to pursue.

Nah brah, if we're heroes, we'd be too busy actually hunting the conspiracy down to have a friendly visit.

I think that everyone is too self-interested to take down a conspiracy for any reason but financial gain.

If you're going to take down a system wide conspiracy, you would expect to be paid handsomely for it.

Well, who would pay us? Clearly not the GUBMIT, nor rich people. We'd probably get rich off stealing from the rich people who lead the conspiracy.

Well, maybe not stealing as much as looting.
EDIT: A focused "Hell Out of Dodge" prologue would let us familiarize ourselves with our characters, the setting and the game. Then, once we've escaped into space, we can have an in-character discussion about what to do next and how to go about it.
I just noticed this! That sounds really cool! You've got my vote for it!

OK.
I've updated the OP with the hand crossbow: 1d6, one handed, reloads: 3p - this also works with the dual wielding perk. Note you need a free hand to reload the crossbow.
Heavy shield has been given the correct value of 3AC rather than 2.

Question: Will it be just the PCs crewing the ship, or will we have named NPCs and/or redshirts to help us out?

At the moment, it will be just PCs crewing the ship.

I think the sheet I posted is done. It's now in my "PTW" post.

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.
