Gilbert Skolnick
Character
Gilberts ship was stocked, the hyperdrive beak was attached, the course was plotted and he was stoned to his ears on anti-nausea meds. In short, it was time that Billy the Squid had her inaugural journey to see if she could do what she'd been designed for. And if he had to make a proper trip, he was going somewhere useful. Bandomeer. Deep in Mandalorian territory, but then, Gilbert had never had any trouble with the Mandos. This might be because he'd never met any.
He cheerfully, and somewhat wobbily, piloted his way out to the Mara Corridor before jumping. Since he was in the Corridor, he let the auto-pilot take control, it was set to drop him out at Celanon where he would manually hop onto the Hydian Way until he reach Bandomeer.
In the meantime he had a fair chunk of time on his hands. Might as well start figuring out where he could legally mine, and start the plans for what he was going to do once he had. He didn't figure it would be a big problem, he wasn't a corporation, just one guy. He'd buy some independent landowner if there wasn't an unoccupied and unclaimed patch of likely land, get a ton or so of useful material, and be on his merry way, free to tinker to his hearts content. It would likely be much more complicated if he was looking for ongoing mining rights for a mass production company.
For now though, he was feeling happy, but a little woozy. Maybe it would be a good time to lie down for a bit.
