The Reality TV Star

“If this thing goes well, I should have my own anti-gravity sneaker line by next spring.”
Lowdown: You are a fame seeker, and this is not your first go at reinventing yourself. After your premiere gig as a contestant on the survival series, Alone in Space: Asteroid Belt Edition, you milked the reality TV virtualcon ring for as much as it was worth. It is time to get more face time on the major networks. The only way to do that is to go for broke and plunge out into the stars on a one-way mission to stardom.
You brought along all the tiny cameras you need to capture every moment, reflect on your thoughts later in private, and reveal the wanton destruction and hedonism that unfolds in an average RX team. Let’s just hope your agent’s promise of legal impunity works out—and your fellow RX team members do not kill you when they discover that you are filming everything. Yes, everything.

Motivation
Fame: You aren’t really about saving lives or making a difference. You want your face in the camera. Whatever you can do to create a compelling story or dramatic tension, you give it a shot.
Oops! Did I accidentally press that self-destruct button? Was it me who riled up that horde of flesh-eating asteroid mosquitoes? Sorry, I should have told you that I don’t know how to fly spaceships before I took the helm!
This may or may not lead to your fellow team members being put in grave danger. And it may lead you to risky and dangerous actions without a second thought. Got to get those ratings, man!
