Oh no! The world is going to end. There are a fleet of transport ships that are planning on moving on to a newly discovered planet that is hospitable enough to settle on. Spots on the ships are limited, however-- you must barter your way on.

Why do you deserve a spot? What can you contribute to the crew and/or the new planet?

Bonus points if you reply to comments, indicating who you would take if you had your own transport ship and why :o
