So now that you know more about the late 23rd century, I give you the roles that you may play.

Captain: (one person, obviously)
This one is obvious. Captain commands the ship. Rank: captain.

First Officer: (one person, again, obviously)
Second in command; helps captain command the ship, and takes over whenever the captain is not able to command. Rank: commander.

Second Officer: (one person, again, obviously)
Third in command; basically the first officer's second officer. Rank: Lieutenant Commander.

Chief Engineer: (one person)
Runs the engines; commands the engineering team; makes sure all the ship's systems are running correctly. Fourth in command. Rank: Lieutenant Commander. 

Engineering team: (maximum of 5 people)
Makes sure all the ship's systems are running correctly; help run the engines; the chief engineer may appoint one person as his/her "first officer" just in case he/she is unable to fulfill his/her duties. Rank: ensign.

Chief Tactical/Weapons Officer: (one person)
Mans the weapons station. The ship has modified a few magic spells to shoot at opponents on a much larger scale than with just a wand. Also, there's phasers, photon torpedoes, and titanium artillery. This officer also runs the security team. Fifth in command. Rank: Lieutenant Commander.

Security Team: (maximum of 5 people)
Help weapons officer. Makes sure everyone who is there is supposed to be there. Protects crew and passengers. Man the brig (prison). Report everything that happens in their line of sight to the computer. Basically, they're police officers. The Chief Tactical/Weapons Officer may appoint one person his/her "first officer" in case he/she is unable to fulfill his/her duties. Rank: ensign.

Chief Negotiations Officer: (one person) (taken)
Exactly what it sounds like; negotiates through conflicts. Also serves as the ship's councilor. Rank: ensign.

Chief Research Officer: (one person)
Exactly what it sounds like; they do research and experiments and such. Rank: Lieutenant Commander.

Research Team: (maximum of 5 people)
Helps with research and experiments. Rank: ensign.

Chief Transportation Officer: (one person)
In charge of shuttlecraft and transporter; makes sure everything is running smoothly. Rank: Lieutenant Commander.

Transportation Team: (maximum of 5 people)
Make sure shuttlecraft and transporters are working right; runs the transportation systems. Rank: ensign.

Cadets: (maximum of 5 people)
Academy students ages 17-21 who are working on the Merlin to train and practice for their future. They do odd jobs, but mostly just stuff that interests them. No rank yet. Can't actually be part of the crew till they are 22. Though if their sponsor (crew member who keeps an eye on that one particular cadet) say that they can handle away missions or serving on the main bridge, the cadet is allowed to do that, though he/she will start out with small tasks, then be trusted with larger, more difficult tasks when they prove they can handle it.

Children: (maximum of 5 people)(2/5 taken)
The children of crew members. They are 17 years old or younger. They learn off the computer like online homeschooling, but they can do it anywhere except the bridge and engineering. Also, every child must have a parent or guardian who is a crew member; you don't need to make a form for that person, just tell me who they're here with.

If somehow we run out of spaces, ask where you want to be and I'll put you there.
