Crewman BAXTER is currently serving as a Engineering Officer aboard the USS Veritas. BAXTER was created by Lt JG Charlena Vanlith originally as a gift for her brother. Due to circumstances the crew fell in love with BAXTER just as she did so he remained on the ship and a second was made and sent to her brother. BAXTER standing for Benevolent and Xenodochial Technological Emergency Responder was created to be able to monitor and administer first aid which would have been helpful for his original purpose to help Charlena's paralysed brother. Now he has stayed he is about to carry out moving equipment too and from locations and most other basic tasks set for him to do. He likes to make friends and loves his crew dearly.

  • Height: 60 cm
  • Weight: 31 kg

  • Eyes: Bright and colour changing dependant on scans and mode
  • Build: Like an athletic dog, clearly able to help move heavy objects due to the purpose of the build.

Relationships


Charlena made BAXTER for her brother to provide him with more independence. BAXTER sees Charlena as his one true owner although the rest of the crew are his family. They are incredibly close and they mean the world to each other. During their time together so far on the Veritas BAXTER has learnt that Charlena is not good with a frisbee.

Having helped Charlena finish the build of BAXTER, Teller is now a very close friend of BAXTER. Since him leaving the ship BAXTER misses him dearly and hopes to one day be reunited.


Personality


BAXTER is an incredibly love able character and seems to turn up at just the right moment given the situation he is in. Due to his purpose he is very relaxing and comforting when he is in duty mode, especially caring towards children.

When in dog settings BAXTER is highly excitable and always wants to play. He wants to be friends with everyone and in doing so is prone to jumping up at people. He is yet to meet an actual dog but looks forward to it. So far Thor is brilliant company.

Ship History


BAXTER was unintentionally activated during the Charybdis mission. During the movement into the void the ship underwent severe turbulence and upon reading injuries around him we woke from his standby state to check on everyone around him. BAXTER was rather useful during this mission in helping to navigate through the Jefferies Tubes, his strength and some of his modifications enabling them to get into spaces they couldn't have without him and enabling them to communicate when the comm system was down through him.
