Serenity Station Pioneer

Tabitha and Sentry

As the world of Shadow is being rebuilt anew, two of the residents there are about to start a new life together. On February 15th, Tabitha Diesel and Sentry Swashbuckler will be married in a ceremony to be held at the Ryman in Londinium, with a public reception to follow in the Serenity Station Club.

Tabitha Diesel has been a mechanic for most of her life, starting out in a mining colony on Regina. A terrible accident caused her to lose her left arm, which has been replaced by a heavy duty prosthetic for mechanical use, and a “normal” one for everyday tasks. Soon after, Tabitha was traveling the ‘verse as jobs came available. On one such trip, Tabitha was forced to fight off a particularly amorous and drunken captain. Mikie Rhiadra came to her aid, and the two became fast friends. Tabitha joined up with Mikie and made her way through the ‘verse to Hale’s Moon as Mikie’s new mechanic.

Sentry Swashbuckler was born and raised on Persephone, and at a young age found a great affinity for anything that could fly into the black. He was engaged to be married to a local schoolteacher, when an Alliance raid gone wrong ended her life. Stricken with grief, he attacked an Alliance patrol and had to go underground immediately after. He was able to search out his cousin, Lerch Swashbuckler, and joined him on Lerch’s Firefly, Freedom, as the mechanic and second hand. Lerch had been transporting goods to Hale’s Moon, and ran into Tabitha at the local watering hole. Knowing his cousin, Lerch suggested that Sentry should just “take some down time” and directed him over to Fook Yu’s.

Sentry was immediately taken by the freckled little lady on the sofa, while Tabitha was intrigued by the man walking in, clouded in a haze. As events unfolded on Hale’s Moon, the two became close, with Tabitha tending to Sentry’s wounds when involved in running firefights with Alliance loyalists, and the two talking late into the nights, planning how to bring happiness into each other’s little corner of the ‘verse. They could be seen spending a lot of time together at the various shindigs and watering holes around the local planets between repairs. One night in early December, Sentry surprised Tabitha and everyone at the Ryman when he stood up on the stage and proposed to her. She agreed, and the couple is feverishly finishing up details for their wedding next week.

Although the wedding itself will be restricted in the number of guests, the reception afterward (approximately 7PM SLT) is open to all, and can be accessed by clicking here: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Revolution/120/126/1027
