Hard to find any good artwork, settled on this:
[ +- ] CPL Riggs


Much easier to find images for regular USCM... but I needed that Advanced Battle Dress. Heavy armor pictures were in short supply.

Please let me know if I missed anything or got anything wrong!

Have you tried StarryAI? I've had reasonably good luck with it.

Whoops foam gun is a weapon and not a way to suture wounds..l

Ok, quick question: For game mechanic purposes does a Flamethrower fall under the Firearms skill?
Yeah, I’d say so.

Fair enough. Man I hope we can find more ammo.

Yeah, I imagine it’s like a quick-drying version of those cans of liquid foam stuff you spray into cracks around your doors and when it dries it’s really hard styrofoam-type stuff.

@Ysolde: I messed up on the Character Creation instructions. As a scientist, Annalise Wolf actually has an Intellect bonus of "+10"... Not "+120". That was a typo on my part. That would be a overall Intellect of "55", I believe.

Also, you can add "+5" to any Stat you like, including Intellect. Let me know where you want the extra "+5".

If that's alright, we'll continue. Also, do you have an image for Annalise Wolf? If not I can pull something up as a generic token.

I’ll add the +5 to Int and fix the rest now

I was pretty excited about +120 Int

Seemed a little busted in a percentile based game though.

Rollup for Prisoner Teamster:
TEAMSTER: +5 to all Stats, +10 to all Saves
TEAMSTER: Once per session you may take Advantage (+) on a Panic Check
TEAMSTER: Industrial Equipment (+10), Zero-G (+10), and Rimwise (+10) and Hand to Hand Combat (+15)
Trinket: Bone Knife
Patch: #1 Worker

Making the assumption he has no gear and no credits as a prisoner. I like the Bone Knife roll, maybe a hidden shiv? Ok, with that BenShotFirst?

Meet Dodger MacGough, XeroCorp's "#1 Worker".

Rolls

Strength, Speed, Int, Combat - (2D10+25, 2d10+25, 2d10+25, 2d10+25) - (2D10+25, 2d10+25, 2d10+25, 2d10+25)

2D10+25 : (47) + 25 = 36

2d10+25 : (42) + 25 = 31

2d10+25 : (74) + 25 = 36

2d10+25 : (85) + 25 = 38

Sanity, fear, body - (2D10+10, 2D10+10, 2D10+10) - (2D10+10, 2D10+10, 2D10+10)

2D10+10 : (33) + 10 = 16

2D10+10 : (71) + 10 = 18

2D10+10 : (103) + 10 = 23

HP - (1d10+10) - (1d10+10)

(5) + 10 = 15

Trinkets - (1d100) - (1d100)

(9) = 9

Patches- (1d100) - (1d100)

(86) = 86

Yeah, excellent; makes perfect sense, haha!

Probably with the assumption that the civilian PCs may die at some point before the adventure is over, the module actually has rules for creating prisoner characters. Do me a favor and roll a d10, to determine your Prisoner’s background, and I’ll probably you the results as a private note, and then you can decide how much you want to divulge to the other players…

Love it!

Rolls

Alright, @gtg620q, here’s your background…

@gtg620q: Feel free to write your PC into the story!

Since you already have a bone knife tucked away, I’m good with you having a second shiv hidden as well, just in case you happen to get one confiscated, if you like. You can never have too many knives, I read once. I think your bone knife probably does the same amount of damage.
I love when the rolls come together
