While I do love the B4/B11 idea, what would be the mechanics?

I have Nobleborn listed as

+5 Fellowship
-5 Willpower
Basic Skills : Literacy (Int), Speak Language (High Gothic, Low Gothic) (Int)
Talents : Peer (Nobility), Peer (Academics, Adeptus Mechanicus, Administratum, Astropaths, Ecclesiarchy, Government, Mercantile, Millitary, or Underworld)
Etiquette : +10 to Interaction Skill Tests when dealing with high authority and in formal settings.
Legacy of Wealth : Double starting wealth and income.
Vendetta : Enemy determined by the GM.
Wounds Bonus : 1d5 (3)
Fate : 1-3 : 2, 4-9 : 3, 10 : 4

and Void born as

+5 Willpower
-5 Strength
Skills : Speak Language (Ship Dialect)
Basic Skills : Navigation (Stellar) (Int), Pilot (Spacecraft) (Ag)
Talents : Void Accustomed
Charmed : Roll 1d10 when using a Fate Point (not Burning), on a natural 9 it is not lost.
Ill Omened : -5 to all Fellowship tests to interact with non Voidborn humans
Wounds Bonus : 1d5 (3)
Fate : 1-5 : 3, 6-10 : 4

using http://goo.gl/OwzFKa as source, let me know if that doesn't match the books
Fate points and wounds are off, as is the noble's ability at a quick glance.

Rule wise, there is no official method/support for mashing two backgrounds together like that.

 Isn't it in our best interest to not leave a "hello and congratulations with your new job at the Inquisition" note lying around even if we do follow their instructions? Especially if we are to share a ship with some variety of heretic? Memorize the location of that broadcasting station and destroy all documentation linking us to the Inquisition. Then do C with the ultimate goal of obtaining the warrant as in F.

Prevent the ship from blowing up while Red 5 drives off. Then, announce that the race was actually a secret test of character to see who's mind was the most focussed on keeping the ship intact in the event of a (totally planned) catastrophe like this. Declare yourself the winner.
