OOC: I figure the Starkiller's Might would be a heavily modified Nebulon-B. As I have said before, the Starkiller's Pride is a modified Mon Calamari MC-80a, but I figure Marcus Starkiller would have commanded a smaller capital ship at some point.
The Starkiller's Might a heavily modified Nebulon-B frigate (it's midsection is expanded in all directions to allow for proper hangar bays) is backlit by the systems star, showing only as a black silhouette after the shuttle exits hyperspace. The shuttle and the two x-wings are directed to the main hangar bay, where Captain Marcus Starkiller and his wife, Ivanova are awaiting the new arrivals in their dress uniforms.

OOC: Has Kari been issued dress uniforms yet? I will add an IC segment to this post based upon your answer.
IC: Kari and Amie disembark from the shuttle and snap to attention before the Starkiller couple.

OOC: She will be now that she is assigned to the Starkiller's Might. Same goes for Amie.
IC: "Welcome aboard the Starkiller's Might. I am Captain Marcus Starkiller and this is my second in command, Ivanova, who also happens to be my wife."

"Sir, glad to be here," Amie responds as the two young women hold their salutes.

"At ease." Marcus commands. "The two pilots that escorted your shuttle will also remain aboard the Starkiller's Might, part of a different squadron of course."
"Thank you, Captain." James responds.

Kari immediately shifts to at ease from attention.
OOC: At the moment Kari is content to let Amie do what little talking is necessary.

"So, Amie, Kari, what do you think of this ship as far as it's exterior modifications?" Marcus inquires.
"She is obviously less fragile midship when compared to the stock Nebulon-B frigates." Amie points out.
"Correct, and we are going to modify her further." Marcus responds. "Fleet command was able to recover the engineering section of one of our fallen sister vessels and they will be sending a whole team of techs to attach it to our hull. From there, more hangars and cargo space will be added, not to mention more crew quarters."

Kari's curiosity finally gets the better of her. "Is that even possible?" she asks. "Before I went AWOL from my original situation, I personally eyeballed a report about this variant of the Nebulon-B that indicated stress levels on the keel were in the orange to amber range. I'm assuming that report is in the archives of the Imperial Navy's Bureau of Ships somewhere."

"You would be correct, for the most part. But the engineering teams pulled a miracle with this beauty." Marcus responds with pride. "Once the final retrofit is complete, she will be one of a kind."

Kari thinks about this for a moment before responding, "Sir, correct me if I'm wrong, but that's builder's yard level work involving basically lifting the nameplate of the ship and sliding a new ship underneath."

"Correct." Marcus says. "We are to make way for an Alliance shipyard for the final retrofitting process. The Winged Vixens are one of two squads that will serve as protection while the ship is overhauled."

Kari and Amie exchange glances. The Alliance having facilities that comprehensive is news to them.

"The shipyard is located in Wild Space. That is why we need extra protection, not just from and Imps that may come snooping, but pirates, bounty hunters, and any other number of potential threats." Marcus continues.

"Yes, sir," both women respond, coming to attention and saluting.

"Very good. My wife Ivanova can show you to your new quarters and introduce you to Captain Nerva Swift, your new squad leader." Marcus states.

"Sir!" both women reply, accepting the implied dismissal as they grab their duffle bags and follow in Ivanova's wake.

"It is always good to meet more people dedicated to the cause." Ivanova states. "Kari, I hear that you had been a former slave to an Imperial officer but had been freed by another Imperial, who is now in our graces as well."

"I... would prefer not to talk about it, ma'am," Kari replies with a wince. Her past is still a very sore subject with her.
OOC: I think Kari was raped by her master, giving James another reason to kill the bastard. The physical damage was healed while she was in training, between scenes as it were.

OOC: Sounds good.
IC: "I have some Jedi training from my parents what may be of help to you. I can try to remove any of those memories that you have tried to forget, should you want me to do so." Ivanova says.
