Challenge #1: Introductions

Thirty-one years ago, intrepid explorers boarded their ships and left the safe confines of the Lego system to travel the unknown. They spread out across the galaxy, establishing bases, mining ore, encountering alien civilizations, and colonizing planets.

 One of the first explorer bases



During this time, occasional mention was heard of the fabled hidden system of Brickadia. Snippets of information described it of composed of a number of verdant and habitable planets, along with desolate asteroids rich in mineral wealth. Rumours also told of friendly civilizations living alongside unthinkable horrors. But every story ends with the mention an ancient guardian protecting an incredible secret.


Recently, an ancient data cube containing the co-ordinates of Brickadia was uncovered. The galaxy at large is now feverishly preparing to race across the cosmos to see for themselves if the legends were true. Will you be joining them?


Challenge #1: “I see introductions are in order”


It is time to select your captain for the adventure ahead. Create a minifigure to represent the heroic leader of your expedition to Brickadia, choose a name for them, and write up a short description of who they are and why they are going. Take a photo and email it to Carl by the due date to get yourself signed up for the campaign to come.


The photo can be just of your captain or it can be him and up to two crew members. That's it. Time to get those creative braincells in gear.


NOTE: Obviously this first challenge is pretty simple, but it is acting as a sign-up of sorts. As a hint, the next one will be to build your captain's scout ship, so start thinking ahead.
