- I expect details and hints onto character life. Most races has some sort of relationship with others, in lore. Even if by discrepancy in numbers. How does your character cope and process with these differences.

- I expect up to 2 paragraphs per post unless you are replying or doing something mundane (answering a simple question. Walking after someone. Not really doing anything/listening to someone talk) although some effort in the length presented is still required.

- You don't have to know a lot about the lore, but when if your character has pertinent relations with the general public. Know the lore so you can get a vague feel of the attitude it may realistically be.

- That's it. Have fun.

Just a quick question would Skeleton be apart of the Revived race?

@Eviledd1984

Revived are souls in machine that have "orbit" aka. keeps them in the living world. They are able to have nothing inside them, but most of them have remains of some sort. And yes, literally a shit load of them are spooky skeletons lodged inside a cyborg like suit.

Think lots of glass domes/windows and eerie blowing single colors around inside. But it can be just hearts, eyeballs. Dead brains. Nerves. Even skin or nothing. Remains in lore give you a stronger "orbit" which may or may not give you any real debuffs or benefits in practice.

The only rule is said remains can't be exposed. They got be kept in some sort of jar or overall helmet system or dome. Fish bowl ectr.

So, yes. Absolutely. They are.

@ScreenAcne

How's this in terms of stats and whatnot for the race?

What are some of the careers your character can have?

@ScreenAcne

@LordofthePies

Whatever their long term means of survival or earning money will be their career. Be space pirate, criminal. Solder ectr. If you're not sure of their career stats from it, I'll make a judgment on it when you submit it.

If your career translate to no stats. I'll just translate it to some starting points/credits.

some examples:

doctors.

surgeons.

software engineers.

station guards.

ship pilot.

Hope this is alright. @ScreenAcne

Name:
Light Savath

Age:
20

Race:
Epoch Human

Career:
Biologist/Scientist for Hire.



Personality:
Ever since Light was able to know about such things, he was interested in how everything worked. Constantly asking questions. He was a man of science and studied practically anything when he could. Although, wanting to learn about everything made it so he collected and dissected whatever he could get his hands on. Light isn't really one of the most sociable people, especially due to the fact he's a sociopath. He gave up on trying to understand why people do things, adding that to the rather small list of things he will never quite grasp. When he does understand something, he tends to get extremely excited about it. He was raised to be the best, so he rarely will tolerate anything else when it comes to himself. Light also has some crazy trust issues, so much so that he rarely even trusts the air around him to be clean.

Background:
Light didn't really care to make friends or understand his family, so he doesn't have very many social memories. He remembers the harsh white of the facility he grew up in, and he remembers the tests he went through. He also remembers the good times, like when he got a puzzle right the first try and was rewarded with a cookie. Failure = pain and completion = cookies is how he remembers most things going, and not much of anything else other than that. Due to the near constant social tests, he developed trust issues and some minor paranoia. Light remembers his first betrayal. A little brown haired boy named Chris. He was his first best friend, but he was jut a test. Light trusted Chris with everything and thats how he failed. Chris delivered the news and everyone in the facility knew everything that was wrong with him. From then on he recognized others were not to be trusted since trust leads to hurt. From the way you talked to others or just the way you ate. Everything was a test. Everything is a test.

Campers Backpack: A simple backpack that has 2 side pouches, a back pouch and a large inventory space. It can hold to 20 general items such as ammo, tools, masks and weapons as long as they are not bigger than than 2 feet. Cannot be worn over bulky armor class items.

Tent: A basic tent with special fibers and netting to assure that it can keep it out most forms of weather, including sand storms, mist and a large variety of known and unknown small bugs that resemble the same pests on Earth like planets. When in this tent, the camper is able to sleep. The tent can be extended and pulled out to account for up to 10 people in total. A good place to sit in to escape the elements and do little things like prepare equipment, sleep, eat or heal. Very good at insulating heat.

Basic Tools: Most basic DIY tools that are needed to repair items such as wrenches, hammers, spanners and pliers. Including a multi-tool and a number of bolts and nails.

Automated Tools: Domestic drills for quickly making holes. An electric sander, a paint sprayer and a hot glue gun.

@dragonmancer

I'll need to balance out that beam resistance a bit since sun beams could melt through most atom engineered up hulls for energy to energy combat. We're talking tank top weaponry here.

How about this:

He can be immune naturally to hot and blistering weapons and not suffer any sort of heat stroke/ organ failure from heat side effects. This, pretty much means he can take on small and medium sized heat weapons and not be bothered. Like at all, he's effectively able to charge most beam basic infantry with impunity if they don't have other weapons. Keep in mind, he most likely will get armor of some sort later on that will buff him against higher rank of beam weaponry too.

even if its expensive for him. Because shekels come to players. Is the way of life.

Also, I'm giving you 5 extra points for his stats. Because I realized I'm kind of shafting the aliens a little on the stat department and there is no reason a bad ass dragon shouldn't have strength higher than 5.

Done, I'll fix that in a jiffy!

I'll make a race for my mechanical overlords character


A redundant race really, but the terminator-styled Cyborgs are not tech savy enough with me. So hopefully this is fine, I tried to offset its advantages equally.

@LancerOfBlue

I'll allow this on the terms of:

You are a made AI from the transhumanist community. They have sentient machines and code all over the place there. It's just not normal for them to leave the planet because as a rule, humans and cyborgs normally do so of their own accord and settle most of the economic and culture needs that migration might provide. There COULD be a reason an AI was made, by natives or even AI there but I'll leave that you to make up for your background.

I'm counting your recording software as a program slot. Your brain has 5 slots- 3 are already used-

I'm going to be treating your human like appearance as t3 cosmetic mods that cyborgs can get down the line. So, I'm charging you for that out of your beginners stats.

Most sentient and thinking people won't really mind that you are an android. Some colonial and isolated human stations might be worried of you and think you will do something crazy because of the horrors of the Humanist war that happened a long, long time ago but mostly people are aware it's a bit paranoid. They're pretty accustomed to smart robots. Keep in mind, these same intelligent AI pretty exist in planetary size data banks with full on galactic naval ability and the peace/cooperation between the two has been long standing.

even if they are paranoid of each other.

Factions types though......ehhhhh. Evolutionist wouldn't care. They hate cyborgs on the count of they had weaken their themselves as a race for external hardware. An AI is software so they wouldn't be too miffed.

conseratives...ehhhhhhhhh.....expect it to wobble a little bit. But only extreme or rash pockets would really dislike you out of historical guilt tripping.

I'm ok with all the other stuff in exchange for your loss of the ability to buy direct modifications for your body like cyborgs. To reflect your focus on human imitation, decrease your health stat to 12 due to your change in body design. This is still pretty good health.

Finally. This won't be a race. It will be a lone AI, I'm ok with say...another....50 existing in lore but you will be the only playable one.

@everyone
This is my only exception for custom races outside of aliens. No more augmented custom races after this one. That includes genetic augments

@LordofthePies

Shit. I'm all sunny for this idea that you, motherfucking. man martian has developed this achievement centered complex from his time at the facility, I'd like to see you build up a bit more back story alluding to this. Maybe there was a moment specifically that stuck to him.

The facility was a more ruthless tester than cruel. So they might of used some waterboarding or psychological mess about to see how they handle stress. Think real life tests, telling kids not to talk to the one who stutters or seeing how a teenager copes with a rumor of sexual disease for a genetically tailored line.

You could link this to his sociopath and paranoia a bit more strongly. He has a brief time out of the facility at this point so alluding briefly to what he's been up to now that he is out of care. His line is an avatar, all eyes are on him. Many might know him instinctively but his strongly sculpted human appearance and registered name.

All EPOCH are only 20 years old, give or take a year or 2. This is because at this time period the first line of them has been let out to the world for the first time. Your character would still be very young in terms of outside experience.

Alright. I'll fix it as soon as I get the chance.

I hope the new one does alright for now. I've been kind of brain dead this week.

@ScreenAcne

Ready for review! @ScreenAcne

Sorry for the wait on my sheet, @ScreenAcne!

Got space for a Monster?

@MonstrousMan

Sure, brother. I'm all more, motherfucking. accepting new guys right now than a insecure single mother who's on the rebound.

The only custom races I'm accepting from now on though are aliens which can't be genetically or cybernetically advanced(even if space age themselves) everything else has to be one of the normal races.

@ScreenAcne

Can I PM you on my idea then?
