Is one idea

Skyler your slicer skilled in ship repairs or just mainly computers and security? With some combat?

I like tech chars also, just tend to be more repair oriented.

Also thought about a sector ranger, undercover. See the template I was working on.


I'm thinking primarily computers, with some combat focus. I'll let you know more when I have him fleshed out better.

How exactly do we do specializations under Brawling/Brawling Parry if there are no martial arts? What kind of things would you be looking to include here?

Holds/grappling
Throws
Defense/blocking
Punch
Kick
Defense vs melee/disarm

If you think of something else I'll consider it. I like to keep things simple. Martial arts rules inevitably lead to complications.

Something complicated, like a nerve punch, is knowledge of anatomy, to know where to hit, and a called shot. A punch to the elbow is a simple called shot.

For the 'something complicated' kind of attack then, would a First Aid roll suffice (which could arguably be hampered by not having a specialization in a certain species), or would you require us to have the Advanced skill Medicine (which, again, could arguably be mitigated by a lack of specific species knowledge).

I don't ask to make things more difficult; I am MORE than cool with keeping things simple. I'm just trying to see how my character would need to be built in order to make him as useful as possible.

First aid would make sense to know where nerves and such are, especially for a species you've worked on before.

Alien species check for weak points. Maybe have a fluency rule like languages.

Is one idea.

Would work for first aid and medicine also.

I posted Sladru Narth to the character page. I can make adjustments to story as needed to meet up with the group.

I didn't know we had a character page. I didn't ask for a thread yet. I'm still trying to work out a title.

Right now I'm thinking "Smugglin' Ain't Easy" but that's just a working title.

Suggestions?

I may be interested, if we go through with this, I think I'd vote smuggler campaign. I've got a meager bounty hunter character, nothing fancy.

We'd already pretty much voted on the Smugglers campaign.

Doesn't look like too much has happened in the last month. Quite honestly, that's worked well for me; I work for the Postal Service, and as such have been busting SERIOUS @$$ the last month and a half, so the hiatus has kept me from being too far behind.

I'm on vacation now for two weeks, at my parents' house, so I'll be only on sporadically during that time; hopefully I'll be able to knock out some work on my character, but I'm sure you all know how vacations with family can be.

hey, I just registered and saw this.

I have a pilot kind of guy for a game that died, set during the time of the "Rebels" show that looks like it would fit the bill, unless somebody already has their eyes the place. It was a Human before, I was thinking I'd re-work it a bit as a Duro. ...that is, if you haven't begun yet.
