[OOC] Era of Epoch (Open and Accepting)

[BayRat]

@ScreenAcne

Would the coalition have primitive races like the Gorgas as slaves?

[ScreenAcne]

@dragonmancer

The Coalition dosen't have slaves. It's more like, a motherfucking. soft political take over. Think along the lines of having your peoples technology, culture, political lingo and general life style slowly seep in or handed to them as gifts. It's not necessarily a hostile take over, more a "join the union or enjoy having your trade routes and military stifled" or have vague threats that all in political no speak.

The art of threatening you without threatening you. Red tape jungles that tie you up the more and more you are into the Coalition. Races join it because between the Coalition and Humanity, the sense of insecurity even for space faring races sky rockets. Then you are propergated against humanity and made paranoid and they try to convince you that you need the Coalition so they do all sorts of sneaky political shit.

[LordofthePies]

When do you plan on getting us started, @ScreenAcne?

[ScreenAcne]

@LordofthePies

Shit, put on an orange taupe and grab me by the hairy end, brother.

I, motherfucking. thought you guys would be all gone. I like. vanished from the RP like a limb bizkit from the album charts.

My TOB noticed and slapped me up the head yesterday. I just priced and fixed up some of the store stuff. If you're still in it, then. motherfucking.

I'm gonna see if I can bet the Bcode she worked on for this off a friend. Write a little more up. Then seek out some more possible players quickly. But like, either way the first post will be up either tomorrow or monday.

[LordofthePies]

Awesome. I'm really hoping this takes off.

[MonstrousMan]

@ScreenAcne

Still here Broski.

[ScreenAcne]

@dragonmancer

If you are still interested. You are accepted. Feel free to move your, hulking hankinator into the character section, bud. But I would like to see that addition added on soon.

@LordofthePies

The OC is up. All items are priced. I may add a few more items but it is as it stands for now. You're starting points and credits are:

1500 credits (your poor) -the institution dosen't give a lot of time to make money-

Youth -even as a specialists. Time makes money-

Specialists (jobs for your character are sparse due to your niche field)

Starting Points= 20

starting points are collective points of experience and things done.

Institute: you can't do or experience a lot in a confined place.

Educated: but you were tested and taught, Giving some special chances.

For now, your starting points can be only used for purchasing gear. After this mission your points can be used for the sort of things I mentioned in the IC- such as feats and acts you did in the down time-

@MonstrousMan

Warm my waivers like a caramel syrup, brother to find you're still in the back seat, my man. I'm gonna check out your alien dude again now. Feel free to shop.

I'm just about to post Epoch in the group thread, my man.

[Eviledd1984]

@ScreenAcne

Hi so is my character accepted?

[ScreenAcne]

@Eviledd1984

Sorry, brother. You got cake in a concept but I get the impression you're not drawing enough from the background/race your character can have. The nature of a revive is a lot more history and symptom of growth based-due to living/and dying so long- With so much to drawn on I'd need to see a good bit more personality reflected from that.

I'm going to have to say no. I'm sorry I took all the, motherfucking. clocks and watches getting back to you.

@MonstrousMan

I'm still waiting on your changes, my demonic digital denizen.

A good example is Dragonmancer race. He has straight forward advantages and straight forward disadvantage.

but on suggesting what your character might have.

1: they can't talk. They can only normally communicate via writing. If they can talk via chemicals and scents, it would do nothing to other races except. Maybe smell bad.

Maybe one of the disadvantages is that you got to buy modded equipment that lets him talk artificially. A mute motherfucking alien assassin who later on has a mask or helmet for talk might fit the dark and dirty mood you're going for.

You can still get an intimidation bonus but you'll have to use body language and actions a lot more.

If your character is big and has a tail, a natural consequence would be in tight spaces like narrow hallways they get a penalty to dex and balance because it keeps bumping into things or even other players.

If your blood has such a rapid reaction to air. Maybe it reacts while exposed in his wound too. Perhaps open wounds do more damage when bleeding over time?

Just leaping the lapse for possible ideas here, brother.

[MonstrousMan]

@ScreenAcne I'll sort that shit out soon. Just had work *smh*

[ScreenAcne]

@Mae

I ain't into chugging coal into your fire, sister. But I gotta leave the station soon so if you can slap up your abstract avatar soon it would be idea. But you got a few days as we sort out the folks and crack open the currency yokes.

[Sentel]

@Eviledd1984@Brithwyr@LordofthePies@dragonmancer@MonstrousMan@Mae

Hey there fellas, I've been lurking around and helping ScreenAcne with a little bit of text cleanup for a while now and we figured it's high time I introduced myself. Part-time co-GM and Friendly Neighbourhood NPC, Sentel, at your service. I'm basically here to play some throwaway characters and make sure ScreenAcne doesn't evaporate or eat his own arms or something, as he put it. You can ask me shit if he vanishes and you're impatient and I'll either answer or give him a little friendly kick up the ass so he responds. Pleasure to meet you.

[Brithwyr]

@Sentel

Sup.

[MonstrousMan]

@Sentel

Or8 m8

[Bad Ass Muppet]

This is gonna be cool brahs

[LordofthePies]

Character edited and such, but in the character's tab. Check it out if you want, @ScreenAcne.

[ScreenAcne]

@LordofthePies

Hmm. You have no clothing whatsoever over your chest. Just to make it clear, brother. you are aware you got 1500 starting credits-which I see some of it you spent- and 20 starting points.

the (x) next to an item is it starting point cost.

[LordofthePies]

So I can spend points in place of credits I don't have? <.<

@ScreenAcne

[ScreenAcne]

@LordofthePies

You can spend points or credits.

Credits can only be spent on items. Points can be spent on downtime things after you finish the mission. Back in the IC where in the down time you spend credits for larger actions or stuff you did over that time (buy a ship. create a drug ring ectr) so while points would be obvious at start to spend, due to it being cheaper.

the balancing act is that, you want to generally save points to do more complex/cool shit later on.

[ScreenAcne]

@dragonmancer

Sorry, I put this off, my brother.

You're career bonus is sort of general. So, going from your character and you're race I'm going to give you +2 career rolls in up close combat.

This include attacking or defending.

For your credits and points.

3000 credits ( You're working class, but you've managed a cozy nest egg)

uneducated - low labor skills.

under armed - you don't come off as equipped for a lot of combat

Racial - the fact you can shrug off most beams is quickly brought up to interested parties. This gets you some work

Big and Scary - sometimes that's all you need. Get a lot of jobs as debtor or guards for crooks easy.

Age - you're equipment is simple and you don't have the culture of wealth importance. You save up a tidy, but modest sum through your years.

Starting Points: 25

Backwater planet - you're not unequal but even combat tribal skills don't translate well to space.

No formal Education - you didn't get exposed to a lot intellectually.

Explorer- you've been around.

Age- Old or not by your races standards, 80 years is enough time to get youthful recklessness beaten out of your head.

Eager Mercenary - Being bought by anyone really forces you to experience different thinking and personality skills.

Side Effects: Home and Away: The warrior like nature of your people and your human to gorgas discrepancy means that other gorgas security and mercenaries actively go out of their way to try and engage in combat with you. Even to the point of doing work at greatly reduced pay.

Identified: Mercenary take a lot of jobs, sometimes not for good people. Even unknowingly. You've never been to jail but there is a question or if you should be. Security notice you more and may harass you from time to time. Don't ever expect friendly and quick service at pass gates.

Edit:

Fucking posted this in the character page by mistake. Slap my synapse and shake my slope.
