Outcast Researcher?

[Hawkwings]

Yeah, saying "all Outcasts want to be cardiamine superhumans" is a huge and unrealistic generalization, which unfortunately appears too often in fiction. I refuse to believe that all Outcasts are cookie-cutter fanatical killing machines. They have to have other people in their society too, but that's just it. They're a society, not just a group of fighter pilots. So I want to play another member of this society, and see how this turns out.

As for the in-RP hostility issues, his "cover story" could just be investigating the properties of cardiamine and trying to get it to grow in places other than Malta. This would mean he could travel all over Sirius, interact with all the Outcast allies, and gather a lot of information. This would also get him financial and material support from higher up, as the Outcasts probably don't want to depend on solely Malta for cardi production. They don't want the technology to get out, of course, but having all your eggs in one basket is bad too. And the Corsairs have already demonstrated their willingness to nuke planets...

Basically, how I came up with this idea was first: I wanted to be some sort of unlawful researcher. Next, I thought, "what sort of things might and unlawful researcher study?" And Cardiamine was a natural answer. Artifacts were too of course, but in thinking about both of them, I thought that cardi would be more interesting. And I definitely want this researcher to be less "science" and more "SCIENCE!"
