Also, I'm starting to think you just want to use RP as an excuse to play an "awesome" character. I have no idea if I'm correct, because I am not a psychic, but it's my guess. Hearing the words "less options for a character" makes me think you care more about having the perfect character than roleplaying with the universe you're given, which is the point of roleplay.
Besides, it's not like your character even has to do their job, because you'll be lightyears away from home and the commanding staff isn't cruel enough to shove you out of the airlock or leave you to die on a hostile planet.
