Kobb: Removed some unnecessary fixation on Andie's gender/sex (including unfounded information on a supposed "original" version of the character), and did some cleaning in the tip sections.

 '''Summary''': Sub-Lieutenant Andie Graham is still not aware that the Daedalus has cut all ties with the SDF. Still operating under the illusion that he/she is on a federation-sanctioned mission, he/she is still working towards the mission objective. Upon discovering that their idol, Sgt Derek Hogan has joined the crew of the Daedalus, Andie applies for a position on board. Andie's unique skillset makes him/her invaluable in ensuring mission success.

-:One special ability/danger of a Mush Andie lies in his {{skill|Devotion}} skill.

+* Andie cannot get {{status|Pregnant}} and ''can'' get female characters pregnant. This is probably due to mechanical limitations and should not be treated as "proof" of a true biological sex.
-**Originally written as a bisexual, androgynous male, Andie was rewritten with an ambiguous gender (and the pronouns changed accordingly in their bio), most likely to allow the players to roleplay Andie as they wish (male, female or both, straight, bi or gay).
-***To maintain the ambiguity, Andie cannot get {{status|Pregnant}}.
-***However, it was reported that Andie ''can'' get women pregnant, which would rule out "female". This may be a relic of that earlier state, though, and therefore a bug.

+==={{Silver}}===
 :{{Skill|Polyvalent}} / {{Skill|Pilot}}: Do research, defend the ship and pilot successful expeditions yourself... you have all the options, but you will be starved for {{AP}}. A good plan is to focus on research first, so you might be able to stop the Mush before your help is needed on the Hunter front.
 :{{Skill|Polyvalent}} / {{Skill|Devotion}}: Highest research productivity through bonuses and often '''6''' extra {{AP}} per day, as ''Devotion'' means that you will get most of the missions.
 :{{Skill|Polyvalent}} / {{Skill|Confident}}: A very useful combo of Research progress, better expeditions and {{Morale}} restoration.
 :{{Skill|Pilot}} / {{Skill|Devotion}}: When you REALLY need more piloting done. While Devotion is only mediocre in terms of {{AP}} / day, and resticting the {{Title|Commander}} in his mission choices, the ability to gain 6 {{AP}} on the fly (pun intended) can be excellent for a ''Pilot'' fighting hunters or collecting scrap, in order to make the most of each trip (especially when combined with [[Inventory#Rations|food]] and a [[NERON Projects|Teslatron Reservoir]]).

+==={{Gold}}===
 :{{Skill|Polyvalent}} / {{Skill|Pilot}} / {{Skill|Devotion}} / {{Skill|Expert}}: The combination of ''Pilot'', ''Devotion'' for {{AP}} and  better hit chances from ''Expert'' makes Andie the most capable pilot on board.
