Hmmmmm...

Having just watched Crest of the Stars, I have an idea for station O'Neill, but I'm not sure whether it fits in with the overall feel of Fenspace.

“Station O'Neill is a private residence owned by a reclusive multi-millionaire named (insert name here). It is closed to the general public, so rumors abound about what takes place within its hull. The station's gender division (the owner is the only male aboard, out of a total population of 75) fuels many of those rumors.”

(I suppose it also makes a difference which name is chosen for the station's owner, too. Calling him "M. deSade" would cast a very different shadow over the station than calling him "H. Hefner" would, and calling him "T. Hanaukyo" would change things completely... not that any of those particular names are a good idea.)

Opinions?

Paidrag O'Niell, kind of an Irish Austin Powers. He's honestly THAT charming a fellow; just don't discuss theology with him. He gets a mite upset.

Well, except that Fox's idea might almost be better...
