Character generation

Nice. Please proceed with your background selection. It is also important to choose what campaign we will play, in the other thread

My skills:
- fix = 1
- know = 0
- pilot = 0
- program = 0

@htech I think i finished my character, should i create the Character here and submit it?

Also, i have one field that i do not know what i should put on it, the skill points right next to base atk bonus, i think i'm missing somenthing

I need to create a custom character sheet template, something that is integrated with Gamersplane dice and other features, so you can create a character sheet for our game that help us during the game. I will do that on Monday and post in this thread. =)

In the meantime, I think your PC is complete, but missing their name, pronoums and goal. =)

Nesta Venbar (she/her)



Physical Description:
Nesta Venbar is a striking figure in the futuristic landscape, her vibrant purple mohawk standing tall as a beacon of rebellion. Complemented by a low-cut fade on the sides, her hairstyle reflects a bold and contemporary fusion of style. With gray eyes that hold a depth of experience and fair, white skin providing a contrasting backdrop, Nesta's physical presence is both alluring and enigmatic.

Cloaked in a large trench coat or leather jacket, she carries an air of mystery that conceals her left forearm, a testament to resilience and adaptation. This limb, a prosthetic marvel, not only serves a functional purpose but also incorporates a screen, seamlessly blending her physical and technological identity. Nesta's entire appearance is a visual manifesto of defiance against societal norms, a declaration of individuality, and a tangible representation of her prowess as a hacker navigating the intricate digital realms of her futuristic world.

Backstory:
Before her life became entwined with star freighters and hacking endeavors, Nesta Venbar grew up on the outskirts of a sprawling metropolis. Raised in a modest community, her early fascination with technology blossomed as she scavenged and tinkered with discarded electronics.

Nesta's innate aptitude for understanding and manipulating technology caught the attention of a local tech guru, who became her mentor. Under his guidance, she honed her skills, developing a deep understanding of both the legitimate and clandestine sides of tech.

However, financial struggles led Nesta to seek employment on star freighters. Initially drawn to the promise of exploring the cosmos and advancing her technological expertise, she soon found herself disillusioned by the stark contrast between the privileged passengers and the struggling masses.

The tipping point came when Nesta uncovered a dark secret during routine maintenance – evidence of illegal activities sanctioned by the wealthy patrons.

Disgusted by the immoral underbelly of the star freighter industry, she decided to abandon her role as a tech within the system and forge her own path.

Driven by a sense of justice and a desire for personal freedom, Nesta transitioned into hacking. Her skills evolved rapidly as she delved into the world of digital subterfuge, and she began targeting those she deemed responsible for perpetuating inequality.
Nesta's transformation from a small-town tech enthusiast to a disillusioned star freighter worker and, eventually, a hacker with a mission, forms the intricate tapestry of her journey, reflecting the complex interplay of technology, morality, and personal growth.

Lol. I see more than a touch of generative AI there. You know I have a masters degree in stuff like that, right?

Summary: Nesta Venbar's journey unfolds from a tech-savvy upbringing in a modest community. Her mentorship under a local tech expert fueled her skills, but financial struggles pushed her into the star freighter industry. Disgusted by illegal activities of the privileged passengers, she transitions to hacking, fueled by a sense of justice and a quest for personal freedom.

Anyway, sounds good and nothing against it. We will also need to describe how she met the other PCs.

Lol, was not trying to hide it. used a lot of chatgpt and AI image generators to help me build out the character and write a better description but the underlying story was mine. Looking forward to the game, it's been a while since i last played and never played a campaign that wasn't basic high-fantasy!!

P.s.: really looking forward to that master's degree to come into play, can't wait to have to explain what vulnerability i'm using when i make a hacking roll /s

Nah... Like most movies, you can say that your PC is typing random keys and scrolling through HTML to describe your hacking in this game. Just succeed in your dice roll and tell us what should happen.

OOC:
- For my character's background, I've chosen Physician. That gives her Heal as her free skill. I chose Talk and Know from the Learning Table. Her class is Expert, giving her an extra focus. The foci I've chosen for her are: Healer (conceding her an extra Heal), and Connected (conceding her Connect). The extra free skill she gains from the final touches is Notice. As she doesn't have any Constitution modifier, I'll roll her hit points in this post as well.

The character has these given skills:
- Heal - 1
- Talk - 0
- Know - 0
- Connect - 0
- Notice - 0

OOC:
- I'd introduce her, but as we've learned, she has a lot of charisma, so I'll let her do the talk :p (ps.: I too have used AI to generate my character's image, not an illustrator over here!!)



"Hello, everyone! Some call me Dr. Nadir, but I'd rather be called Maya. I used to mend bodies and desperate minds through what I learned during my missionary days. A missionary, yes, odd, I know, but not from any church you'd recognize. Mine was proud of the gospel of alchemy, physics, and green. You'd be surprised to see how many nations found themselves lost, with scarce technology and struggling to survive the plagues and the wounds of battle - both physical and mental. So yes, I used to use my ability to deal with people and my somewhat diplomatic personality as my most potent tonic, getting to know many nations and survivors, and most importantly, how to heal them with whatever I'm able to encounter around me. Unorthodox perhaps, but as far as starlight might touch, I'd be willing to wear my doctor's coat and travel. There's no space flu strong enough to scare me out there, I'll help those in need no matter what."

OOC:
- By the way, I feel like Maya could've met Nesta when she discovered the illegal activities she found out. She may have lost her arm there, as punishment, and Maya helped her through her recovery and helped her create her prosthetic arm, maybe?

Thanks to ligera just noticed I didn’t pick my free skill from the final touches section, so will be getting a level in notice, also I loved the idea ligera gave for how we met, I’m all for it.

@arthur12320 considering your cyberware, maybe you would have some hability in Exert instead of Notice as your final touches? Maya already have that, maybe you can cover more ground as a group this way...

Great ideia, will do it.

*head is empty in thoughts*

"What do you mean I have to roll for my status? Is that some kind of food? I fell hungry now... I didn't have to eat after I punched down 4 dudes who were trying to destroy that nice restaurant.

Adeon Laux (he/him)


Adeon Laux was born into a simple slave world called 'Hexonon-B12'. He was taken from his family to be part of an experiment by the company that was enslaving the planet, 'Conocorp'.
Conocorp was looking to create super humans, 10 times stronger, faster and more resistant than normal beings. Because of this, part of Adeon's organs and muscles were replaced with mechanical parts, and he was put to tests for decades.
Adeon with bare hands can break rocks, lift things 10 times heavier than him, and has very sharp reflexes.
After completing 20 years, and extracting all the planet's natural resources, Conocorp recognized the experiment as a failure nd abandoned the entire population to die on a scarce planet.
As for Adeon and the other experiments? Their mechanical hearts would be turned off forever and thrown into space, but with the help of others, Adeon was the only one to escape, swearing revenge for everyone on his home planet. Now he wanders the world seeking knowledge and help on how to destroy Conocorp.

*if it don't take long maybe i can go hunt some bonitões or bonitonas... bonitones* "oh please, i am Ariel Aurea, i dont need status rolls, things are simple, or you do, or do not, in the worst case cenario you just run, they'll never catch me anyway, after all, I was the first in my class *nerd* at the most prestigious Pilot school on the most prestigious planet in the most prestigious galaxy and i'm only TWENTY-TWO... if you dont trust me go check my grades, It's no wonder I work for the must pretigious company of Pilot *yes i'm a goddam good Pilot... got lost when sees a prettie boy.*" I am Ariel Aurea i like speed, I AM SPEED, and i'll go where noone has ever go before, i'll go beyond the limits.

He/She/it/They/Them whatever since you remeber my name.
[color="green"]pilot Ariel was born on one of the must pretigious planet known by humanity, but he was not as pretigious as the planet, his parents worked a lot to mantain their lifestyle, and consequently he grew up quite lonely and independent under a lot of pressure from his parents to have a good job, but he always liked speed, and decided to be a pilot, luckly his parent supported the idea for a pilot career, so he worked hard and study a lot and gained a scholarship for the must prestigious pilot school from the galaxy, to keep this scholarship he must've keep good grade, and with this he concluded his pilot school as the first of his class, and now that have a great job with career plan on one of the biggest companys of the universe, he want to enjoy life as much as he didn't during the pilot school, but he still have a dream, become the best pilot ever known, not just to be the best, but to be able to reach the unreachble, to go beyond the limits of the known universe.

Welcome! Welcome! Who didn't write some opinion in the Campaign thread, please do so!
Sure! Many melee weapons have a Shock trait representing the danger they pose to an ill-armored opponent, even if you fail your attack roll. It represents the inevitable cuts, bruises, exhaustion, and terror of close combat. Shock damage is only inflicted on a melee target if the hit roll fails, and it only applies if the target has an AC equal or less than that listed for the Shock. In your case, if you fail your roll, you cause 1d6 damage (from your focus) and, if the target has AC 15 or less, +2 (your Punch skill level + Strength modifier). More about Shock on page 72 of the PDF

Technology Levels (TL) describe the basic technological infrastructure of a world or nation. A tech level of 0 is equivalent to a Neolithic society, one capable of only the most primitive technological achievements, while TL3 represents the Earth at the end of the 21st century. Most modern post-Silence worlds (the setting were we will play our game) are TL4, capable of building spike drive starcraft, energy weapons, non-sapient expert systems, and other high-tech devices beyond the capacity of 21st-century Earth. Some armor in this tech level (ie. Power armor) is immune to primitive weapons and unarmed strikes from most people. Not from you. Your hands are lethal. ;) For more details about the armor, see page 68 of the PDF.
Usually Dexterity, but specific situations may call for Intelligence or something else.
@tuinho2012 unfortunately, no starting character can begin with a skill level higher than level-1 (see page 13 of the PDF). If some mechanic or skill choice allows you to pick it a third time, you must instead choose other thing or keep it (for the other bonuses) but increase any other non-psychic skill level in its place.
Encumberance. A character can have Readied a total Encumberance equal to half their Strength score, rounded down. A character can only draw or use a Readied item as part of any action they may take during a turn. If an item shows in a table that doesn't have the "enc." column, it's encumberance is usually 1.

A character may have a number of Stowed items equal to their full Strength score. Stowed items are carried in backpacks, in carefully-balanced leg or arm pockets, or otherwise packed away where they will least encumber the character. If a character needs to get out a Stowed item in a hurry, they must use their Main Action to dig it out of their pack or pockets. As such, they can't attack, use a skill, etc during that round. More details on Encumberance are in page 65 of the PDF.

Rogue (she/her)


Raw strength and street knowledge, this is what a former thug known by "Rogue" is made of, her gaze holds the sharp edge of one intimately acquainted with the darker facets of the worlds she had seen and she doesn't try to hide it. Carrying the weight of a name echoing through clandestine corners, that became a symbol, a reminder, of the streets she emerged from and the survival skills she learned as a result of her former life.
Now navigating uncharted territories, her thug legacy serves as both shield and sword shaping her in this unfolding adventure.

@htech I updated my characters informations with everything I think. I don't know if you receive a notification with a edit a post and metion you, or do I need to make a new post like now and mention you?

If it is something that you just posted, please edit, but if it has been one or two days already create a new post as well, it's better to make sure I see it.

Unfortunatelly you can't change the equipment by selling part of it. So you can either use a full package (as is) or roll 2d6 here and get that value times 100 credits, and buy whatever gear you want to. =)

I have just created a character sheet template for us. Please, after everything is ok here, create your sheet and submit for my approval in this game.
