Dorin, setting knowledge in this time period is actually not an issue, provided you're from Earth and we spend most of our time in the Imperium.The biggest thing you need to know is, we're in an uneasy peace between Earth and this massive Imperium we've just encountered. Maybe your character is a captialist whose objective is to make a buck and spread the gospel of capitalism to the crazy, planned economy Vilani. Makes a good party face, given your skillset, and it explains your lack of knowledge of the setting.

We can split my secondary in half, with my guy specializing in Cargo handling and yours specializing in passengers and locating said cargo
