HMS stands for His (or Her) Majesty's Ship. Now, unless the English Royal Family is the Imperial Royal Family (which seems unlikely), then they have got to be sort of semi-autonomous, maybe controlling a handful of star systems, allied to the empire (initially) and then simply assimilated by it as it grew around them, by being British as only we can, we have maintained our sense of National identity, maintained our royal family in their current figurehead role, and maintained our right to a semblance of self determination within the Empire much as we now have within the EU.<br/><br/>I was wondering about Gullins. She's an interesting anomaly. She's fleet, but she doesn't act like fleet. She's bridge crew, but she survived when the rest were raped and murdered. She's timid on the outside, but under that exterior is a tough little cookie!<br/><br/>Would you like me to do a char sheet for her?
