Contents
How to play
Due to Andie's multi-faceted skill set, you should pay close attention to your crew line-up and the players' activity levels before deciding on your skills.
Bronze Tips
Polyvalent: Allows you to fill in for the missing
Finola and become head of Research staff, as well as dramatically increasing your ship's chance of reaching Eden if combined with an
Babel Module.
Confident: Useful if
Janice is in some way incapacitated (inactive or dead), as it will allow crew members to restore 2
daily, all while helping you with
Mush-hunting!
Pilot: Useful if
Ian and
Chun are very productive in research and your ship is missing characters to deal with the Hunter threat.
Devotion: Useful if
Paola is inactive and you'll likely end up as the
Communications Officer (due to your position in the hierarchy list).
Silver Tips
Polyvalent /
Confident: A very useful combo of Research progress and
restoration.
Polyvalent /
Devotion: Boosts your research productivity by 6
per day, as Devotion means that the
Commander will hand out missions exclusively to you.
Pilot /
Devotion: The same as above, but for blowing up Hunters.
Pilot /
Expert: Increases your hit chance with Patrollers, making you that much more effective as a Pilot.

Andie seems to be a person of many skills, but also torn between several responsibilities:
While
Devotion is only mediocre in terms of
/ day, and resticting the
Commander in his mission choices, the ability to gain 6
on the fly (pun intended) can be excellent for a
Pilot fighting hunters or collecting scrap (especially combined with food and Teslatron Reservoir). Also adding better hit chances from
Expert, this combination would arguably make him/her the most capable pilot on board.
Replacing
Finola, however, (s)he will likely be expected to pick
Polyvalent and spearhead the Research as she would, especially if
Ian is not a
Biologist. This, in turn, will not leave much time for other demanding jobs. So much like with
Frieda, the pilot skill may turn out to be more of a backup, and a help to conduct expeditions. - Which, again, Andie is very good at (arguably better than
Hua, except for survival) thanks to the great
Diplomat bonus, and extra alien fruit from being considered a
Botanist.
Being
Confident lets Andie help the ship's morale, as well as help with the
Mush hunt by clearing people of suspicion. And finally, the general
bonus and success chances from having
Devotion +
Expert can enable him/her to do just about anything better than the average crew member, if needed.
So all in all, (s)he will be a good choice for players who put the ship first, and are willing to fill in whatever role will be needed the most.
Useful tips
- Andie's
glory objective is fulfilled no matter who performs the actual trade. She does not have to be
Communications Officer to receive the
bonus.
Trivia
- As with
Derek Hogan, Andie's character artwork has been done by a different artist. Mathieu "Ani" Leyssenne, the original Mush artist, no longer works with Motion Twin.
- Everyone can flirt with Andie, and s/he can do the thing with everyone. They are therefore the first bisexual character on the ship.
- 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 or female, straight, bi or gay).
- To maintain the ambiguity, it seems that Andie cannot get Pregnant.
Biography
The character's current biography:
- 3130
- Born somewhere on Earth.
- 3136
- Abandoned by his/her parents in the first months of his/her existence, Andie is saved by a commission of the SDF. (S)he is promptly placed in a specialized home as SDF protegé, where his/her innate abilities are soon discovered. (S)he is then swiftly planted in an SDF-controlled school and enters the Federation Youth Program.
- 3145
- (S)he remains brilliant in his/her studies and enters the most prestigious university of the Federation. Constantly indoctrinated during his/her studies, Andie heeds nothing other than the way of the Federation. Despite his/her naiveté, Andie is very popular and never has any trouble making friends. With his/her angelic face, (s)he unwittingly attracts the sympathy of all. His/her roommate, Viktor Carlsson, secretly planted in the university by his father Nils, dearly pays for their friendship. For confiding his secret mission to him/her during conversation, he soon finds himself arrested for conspiracy. Andie innocently thinks that he just switched courses...
- 3151
- Andie makes the acquaintance of sergeant instructor
Derek Hogan who, being portrayed as a national hero, spends the entirety of his lessons telling stories of his fantastic life. Andie discovers the father figure (s)he's been missing in his/her instructor and begins to idolize him. (S)he believes every word of his tales and stories and begins to dream of travelling through space as well.
- 3153
- Andie fervently studies subject after subject in order to best serve the Federation. (S)he brilliantly attains three Ph.Ds: in botany for his/her dissertation on the healing properties of Tau-Ceti's Bachean bulb, in biology with his/her study on the social behavior of polarized amoeba in the Aegean Sea of the third planet on the Sol system, and finally in diplomacy with his/her mediation report which, according to the jury, could have inspired the negotiators who failed to prevent Sol's great battle. (S)he becomes the first triple laureate in the Federation.
- 3154
- With his/her studies over, Andie decides to become a pilot, joining the Federation's airforce and easily obtaining his/her license. (S)he asks to be posted on Xyloph-17 and is soon noticed by
Kim Jin Su. Derek, however, does not recognize him/her.
- 3154
- Oblivious to what's coming from the shadows, and believing to still be serving the Federation, Andie boards the Daedalus.
