Character creation discussion

Speaking of which: Comlinks. Are we assumed to have these, or are they an item we need to make sure we purchase?

Yeah I know. The original build had me dip into Shien right away, I decided to hold off on the deadly flashlight because of a concern that it would make non-flashlight users feel useless in combat, and because it was sucking up all of my XP just to be competent with the thing.

KJ:

I still have you with 3 skills to pick from your career and 10 more XP to spend:

Great question.

All players should assume that characters have:

- appropriate clothing (this is basic clothing - not powered armor)
- one weapon
- 2 stimpacks
- personal commlink
- personal datapad

...without dipping into personal funds. Mechanics and Doctors should assume they have a Medpac or a Toolkit as appropriate.

THEN spend your money.

I'm RICH! *loses his mind*

Spent most of my money, 125 creds left .

oh wow, I got a lot more credits to spend! I'm getting powered armor! I'll be Dr. DOOM!!!

In this game, being dirt poor isn't top of my list -- I'm assuming you've been together and successful at jobs from time to time, so less necessary for me to bleed you of credits starting out. Don't worry -- we'll find places to spend credits.

Thats what i am thinking.

Come on guys. Turtle power!






Serenity looked like a horse...

so I just got 825 credits to play with... any suggestions? really all the gear we start out with is pretty much all I need....

Get some oddball gear that fits your character. I bought night vision goggles, mostly 'cause Lin thinks they look cool.

The 720 handles like a brick -- I don't think a hotshot pilot would love it. Not like the YT-2400.

If you decide you wanna drop obligation and the credits you can go that route too... assuming you added credits with obligation that is.

hey falryx... would you allow players who want to pool their extra credits to spend them on upgrades to our ship?

@Darth, you can check out my doctor if you like. Dr We're All gunna die!

That said... *tries to figure out how to make his bounty hunter into Batman*...

should we also come up with how our characters feel about each other? or have we talked our characters to death and are ready to BURN THIS CANDLE!

If you guys want to pool resources/credits you are welcome to. Depending on the upgrade in question I might redirect it or have a concern.

I'm close to ready to light the candle if you are. Just need to get the final character complete. :)
