welcome back brother

Yes - Welcome back!

Thanks guys!

Can someone please help Llogan figure out how to submit a character to the game? I've done it twice with the NPCs but am drawing a blank. Thanks!

This should work....
Try this to get your character into the game
Link on submitting a character into a game

It comes form this thread in the forum New GP Member Guide

I see the submit button on the main game page down to the right of where all the players and characters are listed.

Might have been my fault since I cut off additional character applications, but that should be open now.

Try again!

Welcome back!

If you are still having problems one option may be creating a character with this sheet I created.

There is also the Characters tab on the top panel or the Game Details on the bottom bar where you can associate a created character.

I'm going to try 'pinning' this so its easy to find.

Maybe the first post in the new Characters & NPC sub-forum that you have created.

Look like a full crew then! Better make sure I make the flight then! :D

I am Charles and live in non-sexy, boring Las Vegas. I am retired. I have a (still working) girlfriend and her daughter + two dogs to nurture. But I am in need of more things to putter around with... so here I am. Most recent puttering is my blog (it just got moved, but its been up and updated for about 6 months.)

The character in this game is Luis "Lu-Yam" Yamamoto (who is a Broker-1). I picture this guy as a basic, know-it-all, (Edu: A) annoying weasel. (Social 2!!!) He stares at manuals and textbooks in his copious off-work time when he is not playing video games or writing emails to "girlfriend" Pam in Canada. He is Roddy Ho from Slow Horses. He finally bailed out of the Merchants when he got rejected and punched by the Steward he had been lurking, drooling on for 4 years. Just picture him in the common area going through "kata" exercises with his Bitchin’ (merchants retirement gift - engraved with his name and years of service!) broadsword, "Dudes , check me out I’m like the Highlander! There can be only one!!!!"

I have no idea where this guy is from since I don’t know the galaxy at all. He needs to find a job because he has kinda burned his bridges with the Merchants and it would be too humiliating to move home (wherever that is)

Oh the glamour.

I
saw the character sheet BTW - nice. I will migrate to it in my IRL copious free time.

Ahhh, Yamamoto...

I had General Yamamoto's grandson in my prison back in the late 80's.

Perhaps your character is his great great ~~~grand or something....

🤣🤣. Welcome to the game!!

Not sure if you're aware but Bundle of Holding are offering a couple of old Traveller bundles at very reasonable prices.

I need to keep in with the GM being the backup to the backups! :D

Greetings! I am known as one of the Roberts in Dave’s games, although I usually go by Wettrout, Packratt or RW. The latter is how I normally sign when OOC in game chats. This player could also be called a grognard but I’ve never really claimed such. Like some here, I’ve been playing Tabletop RPGs since the mid 1970s and Traveller when it first came out! I’ve played Traveller in almost all of its incarnations, as well as other GDW games, both RPG and a handful of war gaming titles. But the LBB and Mongoose Traveller are really my favorites. I’ve also played a variety of other genres of TTRPGs, including Twilight:2000, D&D (every version except 4th), Spycraft, Star Wars, several versions of Star Trek, as well as about half of the original WOD titles and some Cthulhu.

Standing before you is a bit of a unique Vargr at 1.81m (5’11") tall and weighing 98.4kg (217lbs). He tends to be on the large size of his species, his heavy, white fur and softer angles of his muzzle accentuated his actual height and weight. Neither obese nor muscle bound, he’s just fluffy. Almost always dressed in a ship’s jumpsuit, he has been known to dress up a bit. It can, however, be a challenge with his heavy coat of fur. A coat of fur that always seems impeccably maintained. Tharrok is a genial, friendly sort most of the time. Some might say his sense of humor might need better timing, but he is something of a prodigy in the pilot’s seat.

Hello fellow Travellers! I’m Tharrok Jyvrek, but you can call me "T-Jive" and I’m the pilot. I fly the ship!

I was reading the initial post in the Trading thread and saw where Dave mentioned a possible name change for the ship and my brain got activated on a couple of possibilities. So I thought I drop them here real quick in case anyone wants to consider them or maybe make their own suggestions. These are really just variations on a theme.

Fortune or Folly

Fortune’s Folly or Folly’s Fortune

Fortunate Sun ☀️ (or is that too 20th Century Terra?)

Or perhaps "Folly's Fools"

But that might just result in several brawls as we defend our ships name ....
