The Guy Gallery #1
FHello everybody, this is my new segment called The Gallery of Guys. Its where I use an rpg character creator and I make a guy and I tell you about them, as well as the character creator. Then maybe I'll write a little backstory for the guy. Maybe a scene with them, idk. I'm keeping it informal because there's a very good chance I will do this once and never again haha.
Now, I have a lot of rpgs that I've bought from many different places, so picking the first one to do will be a challenge. hmmmmmmm......
I think this time I'll pick Offworlders, by Chris P. Wolf (@chrisperrywolf on Twitter!)
Step 1: Pick a Class
The 4 classes in this game are Warrior, Outlaw, Geek, and Psychic. I am stuck between either the Geek or the Psychic. Maybe the Outlaw. Or maybe warrior.
Nah, I’ll do geek. I want to make a scientist guy. Some drone based guy or maybe a street medic. I want my abilities to be Medic and Chemist.
Step 2: Pick 2 Skills
For the skills I think I will take Sneak and Science. I’m starting to form a picture in my head of a street medic, breaking into warehouses and hospitals to find medicines and supplies for patients.
Step 3: Assign Your Attributes
For this step, you assign +2, +1, 0, and -1 to the stats Strength, Agility, Intelligence, and Willpower. I think I will go +2 Intelligence, +1 Agility, 0 Willpower, -1 Strength. As a characters health is always going to be 12 + your strength and your agility, my guys health is just 12.
Step 4: Get Your Gear
In Offworlders you start with 3 Supply, 3 Credits, 1 Light Weapon, and EITHER 7 extra credits OR Light Armor. I think I will take the armor, and I think my light weapon will be a small laser pistol.
Step 5: Name and Describe Your Character
Finally the big one! I think now is the time to just break down this GUY!
14C
A standard model medical droid whose ethics module has been removed and been modified to serve the criminal underbelly of the planet Skeebob 7. Humanoid in shape but robotic in nature, 14C was manufactured by HealthZone Intergalactic. There are scratched out VIN numbers on the back of 14C’s head and on their left forearm. I picture shady individuals being mostly neutral with 14C, though HealthZone Intergalactic is searching for them and the person who hacked their personality module for illegally running pirated software on HealthZone property.
