Character Creation

Pardon the late response! Dud Lento's character sheet has been submitted.

Hoping that link works. I typed up a bit of 'how did he get here' for Dud. Pardon any spelling and grammar issues!

Hey everyone! I just reviewed all of those character sheets and aside from a few small tweaks or questions below I think we are good to go. I can see everyone has been thinking about their character stories a lot and they are all really good and unique in their own way, I can already see some awesome plot hooks involving each character coming together in my mind.

Here are my questions and tweaks on the character sheets:

Erek Drefive
- I added Expert Tracker Rank 1 to your charater sheet (which is a race talent)
- Would be awesome to have any other talents added to your character sheet for quick reference (no rush with that, can sort it later)

Dud Lento
- Your strain and wound calculation was the wrong way around, I just adjusted that, please let me know if I'm wrong

Gwekk Simla
- You spent 90 / 100px and you have 10 XP left is that right?

Jack Convoy
- I have updated the obligation part of your sheet to reflect "Debt" as the specific obligation you spoke of and noted down that you took 20 obligation, please correct me if I'm wrong there
- I believe your race (human) allows for 2 extra non-career skills which you are welcome to choose and add to your character sheet

Note: Also can each player please track their credits balance on their character sheets so we can all see

I'll leave your character sheets in draft form for 24 more hours and then approve them (however I believe you can still edit them after that point to adjust as you need to, e.g. to adjust your current strain or wounds or add new gear or talents)

I think we'll be good to start with the chapter 1 introduction and first steps into the game world on Monday!

Last thing - Ships!

Since Lewis is a pilot I feel like its reasonable that he already has a ship for the crew (or if there is another reason why you have a ship let me know). As you guys may know you can choose any ship within a 120k credits budget (give or take a little). I'm going to post 3 options below and their respective floor plans BUT if you really want something else please just note down and vote for it below and the ship with the most votes wins:

Ship A: Lonar E9 Explorer
Ship Stats: http://swrpg.viluppo.net/transportation/starships/469/

Ship B: Wayfarer-Class Medium Freighter
Ship Stats: http://swrpg.viluppo.net/transportation/starships/442/
Floor Plan: https://i.imgur.com/7XHujXS.jpg

Ship C: Ghtroc 720 Light Freighter (AKA space turtle)
Ship Stats: http://swrpg.viluppo.net/transportation/starships/470/
Floor Plan: https://i.imgur.com/wEOVWnj.jpg

Look forward to seeing your votes and thoughts!

I've added the two non-class skills, reduced my obligation to 10 and recorded credits in notes.

I added Expert Tracker Rank 1 to my character sheet. I'm not sure I understand the race talent aspect to it though, or just how it plays into my character.

I don't have any other talents for my character since I spent all of my experience on Erek's characteristics.

Thanks mate. My apologies.

I've also added Dud's unspent credits to his character sheet.

I updated my character sheet and used the last of the XP (I was debating whether I should take extra obligation) on increasing my skill with Ranged (Heavy).

As for ships, my votes would be:
A > C > B.

I think I'd vote the same way. Ultimately, they'd all do the trick I reckon!

A C B for me to.

I've always been the fan of the space Turtle. I've outvoted, but C > A > B is my choice.

Looks like we can all agree that option B is not an attractive one!

The real issue begins when we have to name the vessel...

Excellent everyone. It looks like we're all ready to get started. I have approved your character sheets now. So good!

Head over to the Chapter 1 thread and take a look at the introduction and opening crawl. Basically - the adventure has now started its time for you to get into character!

I have posted up some more detailed schematics on your chosen ship in the resources forum.

Please also note I have posted a note in general chat about being away for 2 days this week.

The last ship I played with was called the Bicentennial Pigeon. But that was a YT-1300 and technically my character owned the ship so we stuck with it. Peering over to the Chapter 1 thread, looks like I'll be deferring to Dud Lento for ship names.

I ended up with The Hood. I thought it would be nice to name the ship after a famous vessel and the HMS Hood was sank during the Battle of The Denmark Strait. Plus, the name suggests concealment and hiding ones face/identity.

As you can tell I'm an overthinker!

"Just a bunch of boys from The Hood"

"Come to The Hood and talk business"

"The Hood is going to blast yo ass"

So many possibilities

When our adventures are turned into the next major Star Wars movie trilogy, Eazy E's 'Boyz-n-the-hood' will play over the credits...

Haha! Ok fine - changing our game name to "Adventures of The Hood and Her Crew" :D
