Asterix

My goal for the new year is to write a character every day and see where that goes...

A face, a place and a problem?

A scarred face but a happy home, an asteroid tunnel farm in the main belt a century from now. The problem is a lost cat which got left behind (by accident or on purpose?). The fire was an oxygen fire when a compressed O2 line leaked, sparked and nearly killed the girl, Astrid? I like the name, but maybe to on the nose. The cat's name is Asterix and the girls' name is Sarah, princess, which is her dad's pet name for her.

Her father and mother farm, but the asteroid was originally a scientific and engineering test-bed. It services a loose network of survey robots, corporate mining outposts and dreamers, providing fuel, freight and repair services, as well as food, although the base line for that is rudimentary life support system by products, algae, bacteria and fungi, which if kept healthy, can keep you healthy, but not satisfied... 8-P
