Dead Space: Before the SIlence

I'm just wanting to wait until someone else posts. I'm not fond of being the starter, just me.

@ClocktowerEchos Note on upgrades, sure. You still need power nodes, although I won't worry about weapon damage until we fight bigger necromorphs. When we are no longer able to kill a necromorph with an unupgraded plasma cutter, is when people should worry. Because it's gonna get harder the longer we stay on the station.

Figure out or ask around for the upgrade rules. I'm pretty sure there's complications and stuff with upgrading. I rarely did it in DS2 except when I really needed to or had the spare nodes. And the Rivet gun I never bothered using anyway.

EDIT: Forgot to post this haha. Clock, here's the Rivet gun upgrade path.

Your ordinary Necromorphs don't really have any physical resistance, a simple punch can make them flimsy but they take hits and get back up. Think hitting a scrawny human and they keep getting back up without stopping

Dead Space: Before the SIlence

Hello there. I know you guys are filled up already with characters, but would it be possible if I were to just become a recurring character as a Regenerator Necromorph?

@VKAllen

We're not really doing necromorph characters, sorry

It's whatever, I've no issue with it. Just personally it is less unique but eh... If you want to do that you do that. Also RIG stats it won't be just 'here free stats,' but yes. The Security suit being optimized for better stability and grip with a Pulse Rifle etc., the Forged suit I think would be able to do something to muscles or nerves, encouraging the body to 'feel better' if you get what I mean, something so it's less pain on the brain to think about, more to think about fighting, or doing engineer work, haha. But yes.

@Heartfelt Gamer

I said you can use whichever suit you want, and if you want the Hazard Suit it would have environmental benefits

Dead Space: Before the SIlence

A bit confused so i'm not a part of the main group and my character is on her own then?

@Nallore

After we are full, I may allow more survivors to be found (Which can be helpful too, like an example being if we go through any labs, and we find a scientist, they might be able to navigate the area better, have extra gear like medpacks or stasis packs. Or if we find another Engineer they may have special weapons or gear)

@Heartfelt Gamer

@Nallore In your designated spot if we pass you (When we make our initial decision of which way to go from our starting location, I will put you along the route. If we don't go to the room or something happens that gets our attention to you, well that's the only way we wouldn't find you. So it's a 75% chance of finding you), you can have your Plasma Saw on your person.

@Heartfelt Gamer

There is no solo running, if the group doesn't find the character, the character stays there. But I can put you in a workshop or two in convenient spots to be found. It's a waiting game. If someone dies or drops out, it'll be made that you run into them.

Name: Corporal Byron Veikkaus
Appearance:

With suit off

Profession: Titan Station Security Personnel.
History: Despite his usual pessimistic outlook on things, Byron really loved the station he was living on and wanted to do more for it. Growing up he typically under achieved though he had more than enough of an ability to over do so. He was just lazy, and this did not get very much positive attention from Byron's rather strict parents, in fact it was the opposite. Besides this, his upbringing was quite normal, or even too much for Byron. He got older and wanted more, wanted to do more, experience more things. Byron had always been confident, so he decided to become a security officer for the space station, but was noticed quickly by his fellow comrades and quite frowned upon for his laid back attitude. Surprisingly enough to them, Byron did was he was told, and got stuff done. Efficiently too, but this was only when he wanted to do so. Yet he only found himself at a dead end again, petty crimes and rifle wielding still did not satisfy what he was looking for. This was until recently. Byron's parents were both missing. What would someone want to do with a couple so old of age? He never expected it, and neither did anyone else. A short investigation took place only days before the oncoming storm that was about to be a necromorph outbreak.

Name: Zhang Sitrung
Appearance:

Hider

Profession: Engineer/Mechanic
History: Zhang knows very little of his past or his parents, the first things he remembers was being taught how to fix a flashlight by a group of Engineers. He grew up around power tools and workbenches, proving himself to be a very handy and creative kid who at the age of 10 was already trying to work on improving plasma cutters (this was met with very mixed results). As the next decade of his life rolled around, he seemed work in his field of engineering and eventually landed on the Titan Station at age 25. Work wasn’t too hard, pay was good and he had time to mess around on his own projects, life seemed to be good as he even started to try to dive into his own past about his parents.
Suit: Forged Engineering Suit
Weapon:711-MarkCL Rivet Gun with half a clip of rivets in it
Other Gear: 20 Rivet Bolts, a wrench, a hammer, two medium med packs and 100 credits

Dead Space: Before the SIlence

Name: (Alexis) Sergeant Taylor
Appearance:

[+]

Profession: Titan Security Officer
History: Taylor was never very fond of being a bruteful or brash security officer, but her father served as one for many years and she looked up to him. Later on after always recognizing her father as a hero and great father for taking care of her after her mother died, they were transferred aboard the Titan Space Station. However soon after the transfer, her father had to leave the security job due to his age, but mostly because he was dying due to an illness he had kept away from her. As he was her father, guardian, and caretaker, he didn't want to look weak in front of his daughter. Now gone, she's been looked at to take his place, and fill his shoes. She even wears his old suit which is much too large for her. It wasn't too hard to get into the Security detail as the other officers trusted her, the ones who knew her father anyway. And also the fact her father encouraged her to become Security as the benefits were good to live off of and it wasn't a hard job. Taking her to the firing ranges, practice runs, and other drills needed for the detail, she grew to know how to get through it rather quickly.

Suit: Standard Security Suit (Aged)
Weapons: EarthGov Pulse Rifle
Additional Gear: 2 Power Nodes, 1 Small Medpack, 300 (3 packs) Pulse Rifle Ammunition (One in use)
