Reposting chracter here.

Name: Lady Katherine Evangeline Greywind
Class: Noble
Stats: Assets( 5) Power(0) Production(5) Influence (4) Charm(2)

Class Notes: Katherine controls Dahken’s biosynth and genejack factories through her company Union Laborworks Complex, pre-Descent technology capable of creating obedient and loyal servants, slaves, workers, and soldiers through artificial human genetic manipulation and accelerated growth, all hard-coded loyal to her. While the morality of neo-slavery is questionable, its utility and necessity in every field of society and industry is undisputable. Raw labor is a valuable and scarce commodity in the age of the dying sun. Katherine also holds a absolute favor from a media mogul, who can manipulate public opinion how she wishes when she asks. How she came into such a absolute favor is something neither will discuss.

Character Description:


A darkly elegant noblewoman who made her name in resurrecting Dahken’s dormant genejack lab-factories through recovery of ancient technology hidden in her family’s vaults and in expeditions into the ruined surface. Where House Greywind was a dying and penniless name, it was now an essential pillar of Dahken’s industry and economy because of its production of genejacks (sub-human brute laborers) and biosynths (complex artificial human servants), which act as valuable replacements for increasingly unreliable commoner and peon labor. While many disagree with Katherine’s practices of “neo-slavery” whether on grounds of morality or jealousy of the tight control she maintains over the gene-templates and facilities, Union Laborworks is practically the sole reason Dahken’s Council has any reliable large-scale supply of labor for large-scale projects and industry despite the increasing unrest among the commoners.

While prone to bouts of hedonism and self-indulgence of her assets (gladiator slave pits and maids being her present hobbies) as consequence of wealth and power, Katherine does recognize the perilous state Dahken is in, and has joined the Ruling Council to ensure it’s rebirth will be directed in ways she may profit from.

Name: Master Alexander Lanc
Class: Engineer
Stats: Assets(5) Power(0) Production(4) Influence (3) Charm(2)
Class Notes: Alexander Lanc owns and operates the Pre-Descent Reclamation Forge, a workshop that has been fully outfitted with the latest tech and machinery to allow for the study, manipulation and storage of pre-descent tech as well as the fabrication of new and innovative products (not even close to the scale that larger factories that the nobles operate). He employs a number of small teams to aid him in his work; this involves Alexander leading small expeditions of mercenaries and scientists to aid him in the discovery and recovery of new Pre-Descent tech. The Forge itself is split into three main buildings, the Lab, where Alexander with a small team of up and coming scientists study and test pre-descent tech that they acquire. The Fortress, an incredibly secure vault protected by a small but professional team of guards where tech and prototypes are stored. The final building is the Floor, this is a long building that stretches between the Fortress and the Lab, here Alexander works all kinds of contraptions to build prototypes and then manufacture a small number of fully operational products. Also in the floor is the housing for the science teams, guards and Alexander himself.

Character Description: Alexander Lanc was first noted during his time as a minor in the education system. His family were fairly poor, in no small part to their desire to force Alexander through a private education. He and his family soon found that, whilst he was exceptionally poor in the physical educations, he was adept at picking up knowledge in engineering and scientific courses. After flying through the schools and writing a number of papers that are still heralded as ‘ahead of their time’ by the tender age of 25 Alexander began to focus his keen mind at a specific area, pre-descent tech. He found the history of the world they lived in fascinating and on a number of occasions paid to simply join and observe expeditions onto the surface. He was soon contacted by a large corporation to produce new products for home use. The corporation funded the ground work of the Pre-Descent Reclamation Forge and sponsored two expeditions onto the surface. During this time he developed menial products, new Nets ports and new items for personal grooming. However the corporation cornered the market in these products and Alexander found himself a very wealthy man because of this. Using that wealth he spent a fortune on expanding the Forge. Once the patents on his products expired and the corporation no longer had to pay him to use his design Alexander decided his time creating tat for the masses was over. He loved exploring new tech and simply innovating old tech was not his passion. With enough money to fund one more expedition Alexander led a team back up to the surface. Here he excavated and returned an intact data core that detailed a completely revolutionary method of transferring data. On his return he developed what is now used in most electronic products to this day, the Pulse Transmission Signal, a way of passing energy through wires at much higher speeds than previously found. Government contracts and private businesses flooded the Forge to use his tech. To begin with he sold it at a high cost and continued to take expeditions onto the surface to try and create more revolutionary tech. More recently however he has made the design free to everyone; this was his first act in running for council. Next he brought out a line of new food containment units, giving a number of them away in a free lottery for those living close to the bread line. There was huge support for his new designs and whilst some were less successful than others all were renowned for good quality and improvements in life. Using this he sold himself on the fact he would bring new and forward thinking innovation to the outdated systems and use these to create a bustling economy that would be the envy for all. With the support of a lot of people Alexander Lanc made it too the Ruling Council.

Here is my CS, please let me know if I need to make changes.

Name: Sir William of Dahken
Class: Knight
Stats: Assets(5) Power( 3) Production(1) Influence(3) Charm(2 )
Class Notes: Sir William's war machine is a mech that is like no other, it is simply called The Judge, The Judge stands tall, taller than most other Mechs has a pure white coat of paint that is chipped and scorched. The head of the mech is like that of a medieval knight and the eyes glow green when being operated. It's armaments include a large two handed sword, missile pods in the shoulders, and automatics in the wrist that are made to deal with soft targets as well as counter any other mechs.

Character Description: Not much is know about Sir William's past within knighthood, but he rose to prominence, only a few years ago quickly establishing himself as knight of valor and honor. Sir William believes in honor and valor more than anything else and if one has none of those traits they aren't even worthy of being called a human being. He was brought forth into the ruling council to represent a small and secretive sect of knights called The Knights of Ruin. As said before few things are known about Sir William, some speculate that his true name isn't even William, some speculate that was was brainwashed by the Knights of Ruin and is used as their mouth piece and trained killer. What people do know about him however is that, in the battle against pillar Dharka, William killed, disabled, and destroyed more war machines and pilots. Than any other knight on the battlefield, and this is believed to be why he was put on the council. The council quickly realized that he was little gung ho and he often believes the simplest thing is the answer.

Name: Magus Nilrem

Class: Sorcerer

Stats: Assets(5) Power(5) Production(3) Influence (1) Charm(0)

Class Notes: Nilrem's underling is called Deeds. Deeds has the look of a well-dressed, pre-decent butler. Opinion is divided on why Deeds decided to serve Nilrem, some say Deeds is just someone who is more tolerant of sorcerers than most people, others say that Deeds was abducted and brain washed by Nilrem, there's even a rumor that Nilrem used his control over the energies of the world to create Deeds from nothing. It's quite probable that only Deeds and Nilrem will be the only ones to know, due to the fact that any question about Deeds' origin asked to Deeds or Nilrem is met with nothing but a smile. Nilrem's codex contained so much arcane knowledge, that he had to use his powers to turn it from a book to an ethereal orb. Nilrem's ethereal codex follows Nilrem where ever he goes and sends the arcane knowledge Nilrem requests directly to his head. Magus Nilrem has no vault like other sorcerers. Instead, Nilrem uses his power will his possessions into existence when he needs them, and then Nilrem wills them out of existence when he no longer requires them for the time being.

Character Description: Magus Nilrem is widely considered the most powerful sorcerer ever to be brought to the public eye. He has accomplished feats of sorcery no one else has ever come close to achieving. This only makes him seem even more dangerous in the eyes of his peers and the general public. The desires and motives of Magus Nilrem (If any) are known only to the man himself. Nilrem was elected into the ruling council by the small sorcerer community to advise the council on matters of sorcery and to help put logic to the otherwise illogical. Very little is truly known about Nilrem, his history is built on a sea of rumors, gossip, and lies. What is known is that he spends most of his free time meditating to become one with the energies of the world, he has lived for over 150 years, but doesn't look a day over 80, and he and the notorious sorcerer Varim Grin are sworn enemies.

Its been a few years since iv done a forum rp, but I think this would be a nice one to hop back into with. I'll let some char ideas stew for a bit and write up an app.

Just a small question, I assume charm may be treated as charisma / force-of-personality rather than just "charm" in a strict sense, correct?

By all means, hop back in. Correct about charm-be wary tho the stats used in this game are mostly for my purposes in the background.

Next Tuesday is the start of Turn 2. Remember turns are whole seasons-weeks, even months of time. You guys need to talk to each other, set some plans in motion. I haven't seen much use of assets to start with-remember you can use them like you would money..invest, hire soldiers. Build businesses. Fortify the walls, send spies out. Get busy.. Might do well to have a 'meeting' at the citadel and actually introduce yourselves...
