Welcome to the life of Rachael Thomas, a freelance Space Smuggler than runs on Hale's Krayt Dragon. She's never far from her heavy canvas tool bag and fancies herself the only thing keeping the ship in running order. Sure, Hale may own the ship and know his way with a hypospanner but he's always off making deals and flying the ship, it's her that is the true hope in keeping his ship in working order.
