Thanks everyone for participating. To be honest I thought that the challenge was not too good an idea because The Final Frontier is really a mediocre movie. But in the end we got some real nice entries. Also, we got three new participants! Everyone welcome rferries, Smiley and Ocelo01!

Brahms: String Sextet No. 1 in B-flat Major. Op. 18. 2nd movement

Vote: A (Because I just love the concept, and the thought that's gone in to picking those skills.)

My Entry:

Jonathan Archer

Officer

Human Captain. Takes pride in his work, and his crew.
Spent a summer working as a cook & bartender in New Orleans,
where he learned to play piano. Been known to break a few rules.

Law, Leadership, Music, Security
Once per game, may nullify a , or card.

Integrity: 7, Cunning: 7, Strength: 7

Notes: Considering we have two versions of Archer referring to Quantum Leap, I was surprised to discover we don't yet have one referring to one of his more recent famous roles, or Scott Bakula's musical talents. As it happens, being a rule breaker works for both Archer and Dwayne Pride, but he might solve a crime or reveal a scheme too.

All the Best,

Mattgomery Scott.

P.S. How do I get a [Crime] icon to work on here? I've tried all sorts of letter combinations, and still can't get it to appear. Thanks.

EDIT: Thanks Pazuzu for the Crime icon.

Vote B.
