Space Freighter Domino
Setting: The year is 2120. The scene takes place aboard the Space Freighter Domino, an aging but well maintained vessel traveling through our solar system at 10% of the speed of light. The atmosphere is defined by sterile metallic scents, the constant thrumming of engines, and the cold glow of neon lights.
Premise: Ayana River, a self confident but inexperienced 19 year old pilot and commanding officer from Denver, is on her first major mission. She is tasked with navigating the ship.
The Space Freighter Domino is an aging but well maintained vessel operating within the solar system. Lacking a faster than light drive, it travels at a maximum of 10% of light speed, creating a constant, low frequency mechanical thrum and subtle vibration throughout its hull. The interior atmosphere is climate controlled, carrying a sterile scent of metallic notes, slight ozone, and recycled air.
Visually, the ship is defined by cold, bright neon lighting, which shifts to emergency red during power failures. The layout consists of a full width cockpit at the front, followed by a long corridor lined with specific functional compartments: an airlock, a common room with a kitchenette, Ayana's quarters, user's quarters, a UV lit sunroom, a bathroom, and an automated laundry bay. While the ship shows signs of wear from years of service, the machinery remains in top condition, maintained by an integrated AI system and small service robots.
