[Blood_Librarian]

You gasp awake. Your heart, as loud as a lead slab dropped into an endless ocean echoes faintly.  At first, for almost an eternity, you were greeted with darkness. Slowly, tormentingly, your eyes open, just as the memories come flooding back. And then the pain, the undescribable pain of what just happened to your body hits you. Hard.  your heart wasn't echoing anymore. The tremors felt like an earthquake every time it thumped, the very blood in your veins spreads the pain, making it worse.
 
And then it stopped. You were given the sweet bliss of unconsciousness, as the cryo tank surrounds you, and you feel the num and forgiving cold.
 
You are a soldier of the Yaerian Republic. One of the very best. Freshly augmented from the Zero Gravity Surgical Suites of the Military Station.
 
You are a Star Knight.
 

Spoiler: What is this? (click to show/hide)

A tactical squad based RTD/RPG  game set in the Yaeri-verse, the same universe as System Override. I will be using a system similar(blatantly copied) from the 888th Brigade system by Piecewise. You will be part of an elite squad of (counter) boarding soldiers, specializing in being the first ones on board and the last ones left. I removed the health dice system simply because my mind couldn't really comprehend it.

Spoiler: How does it work? (click to show/hide)

For all actions simple RTD rules. Roll a D6, add any minuses or plus’s, get the result. You can only have a maximum of +3 to rolls. If you have a +1, 4-5 is a total success, +2 means a 3-5 is a total success, and +3 equals to a 2-5 total success. 1’s and 6’s retain their failure and overshoot no matter how many +s you get. Although I will take into account the action you're attempting and how difficult it is, and from there I will decide what exactly happens, I may fudge the roll a little bit for or against your favor depending on the situation at hand. Your super soldiers, not bumbling idiots.

Spoiler:  but really, how does combat work in particular? (click to show/hide)

You're going to be super soldiers and super synthetics. Combats is going to be one-sided most of the time to the PCs favor with a chunky salsa type system that is geared by my digression. You can do up to three different actions: A primary, a secondary, and a tertiary. A primary action consists of shooting someone, using your profession tool (Like treating someone with a medkit or repairing a broken drain with a plumbers wrench), or set the mission related equipment up. A secondary either consists of switching weapons, throwing a grenade, or moving a large distance, or focusing on your primary task. A tertiary action consists of moving a small distance or focusing on not being shot while in cover. When you do not use your Secondary and Tertiary actions, it will be assumed that you are hunkering down and focussing on your primary task.
 
If you do not use your Secondary task to focus on your task, you will have a -1 in all gunplay and some technical rolls, in addition, the enemy will have a better time hitting you.
If you focus your Tertiary task on being in cover, the enemy will have a harder time hitting you unless you used your secondary task to move, then you can only use your tertiary action to move.

Name:
(The naming convention is simple, with four parts, for Yaerians.  It consists of four parts, the first part is a name you're born with. The second part will “connect” with the first part of the name either with a hyphen for a professional attachment to something profound or an apostrophe for a personal attachment to something profound. The profound item or person is of your choices. The third part is essentially the last name while the fourth part denoted a highly regarded achievement or occupation. For  Starknights, the fourth part of the name is -Purk. The Second part of the name is optional. Bonus points if it sounds like a fish trying to speak English. Battle Frames can pick any robot name they want, but the preferred designation is simple word followed by a number that increases when that model dies in battle. Noble 353, Hound 1, Etc.

Below is a fully filled character sheet as it should look like, with examples of particular situations that may happen.
 
Name:Blu-Yurg De-Purk
 
Gender:Male
 
Sub-Species:Psionic
 
Unofficial Occupation: Flutterbug
 
Equipment Packs:
Psionic Universal
Phazon Rifler
 
Appearance:Tall, for a Augmented.  They look positively lanky, with a dull cyan coloring. One of their head-tails is misgrown, short and stubby. Their hardsuit is painted  a dull metal grey with the lining black, although he could’ve painted it any color he wanted. If one looked closely, his legs are not actually part of the hardsuit, but a prosthetic.
 
Backstory: Dull. quiet. Deadly. He speaks with a harsh voice from smoke inhalation. “Flutterbug”’s specific psionic ability is in self control of his own movement speed. He is absolutely brutal with a combaat blade, and takes vicious glee with using it on any occasion he can.
 
Skills:
+3 Psionic endurance
+2 Psionic Amplification
+2 Close Quarters Combat
+1 Phazon Rifle
+1 Piloting
+1 Medical
 
Abilities:
Psionically bound Inertia: This Yaeria can control it’s own movement by its psionically enabled mind and uses it for the purpose of killing with a combat knife and a healthy dose of speed.
Sadistic: You take special pride in your horrific ability to kill people in such a way as to maim, break and destroy in a way that is absolutely disturbing. This has become a point of contestation with high command.
Paranoid: You have a second sense when it comes to ambushes, traps and general malaise when it's pointed towards your squad, maybe.

Spoiler: Sub-Species (click to show/hide)

For a Yaerians appearance, I’ve happily described it below, and below that is the choice of subspecies.
A Yaerian generally stands at around five feet eight to six feet two in height, male or female. They hold a wide variety of skin colors and have black, large and almost friendly looking eyes. They have three “heads-tails”, long and slightly thin appendages which hang from their heads, either at their shoulders or down their necks. Females are longer, as the space between them and the neck is a moist and damp area used to store their eggs. They reproduce similar to a salmon, in all that entails. They, compared to a human, are described as rather lanky. They have two arms, and two legs. They have a little bit of webbing on their feet, and they have six fingers, essentially two thumbs and five “index” fingers. This is often reflected in the machines they make.
 
An augmented Yaerian does change their height, though not by much. They gain muscle definition and mass, while they gain a couple metal ports on their spine, and any limbs they have lost in the line of duty are either flash cloned and augmented with the rest of their body or replaced with a high grade prosthetic that is just as capable as their old arm, it is the choice of the soldier.
 
Currently, there are three choices for Subspecies. Use them wisely.
 
Augmented: The bread and butter so to speak of the Yaerian StarKnight Program. They are essentially the standard Special Forces Supersoldier, they are the baseline of the new era. They can pick any skill they want, and any ability they want, unless it deals with being a Synthetic or a Psionic, Abilities and skills that can be picked will be demoted with a {A}
Only three(3) Augmented can be on the field at any one time until further notice.
 
Psionic: You're a one in a rather small chance! Born special, with an intrinsic and utterly baffling ability that only grows more lethal and powerful with age and experience. The Augmented program did NOT improve your abilities, merely complemented them, you can use them as fast as a person can aim and pull a trigger, which for you is very fast. However, with your utterly hellish training, and your focus on your psionic abilities. Psionics gets three abilities, but they must invest one into their chosen field of Psionics. You cannot invest your main (+3) skill point into  a technical skill, I will mark the ones you can pick with a {P}
Only Two(2) Psionics can be on the field at any one time,  and if a Psionic dies, there will be no replacements until a new batch of augmented come out.
 
BattleFrame: A machine, a heartless, soulless machine in the eyes of the Unitarian Empire. You are unfortunately not sentient, but you can still kill, and kill you expected. It is highly likely that your frame, although built in a very durable and outright masterful manner, will not survive the rigors and deadly events that the Starknights will take you with. That is why there are more of you and less of the Starknights. You are expected to die for them and are programmed as such, but you don't care, you're a soulless machine. You are less “skilled” than a person, for the simple fact that your mind only has so much space that can be quick-trained into it. You have 1 +3, 1 +2, and 2+1’s. All valid skills for a BattleFrame will be denoted with a {F} Feel free to describe your chassis, but I will have to approve it.
There can be up to (5) Battle Frames. Don’t worry, your corpse will be recovered and any valid parts reused, it is highly likely that you’ll be able to fight again, even after losing all four of your legs. Please denote where your Positronic Brain is stored in your appearance. If you lose your Positronic Brain your dead, game over, man.
 
Stay tuned for more, perhaps.
 

Spoiler: Skills/Abilities (click to show/hide)

 
Skills
 
BY default, you will have 1 +3’s, 2 +2’s, and 3 +1’s, unless you're a BattleFrame. You can have up to two abilities. You will gradually improve and level up so to speak as you become more of a combat veteran, and you adapt to your implants and machinery.
 
Skills can be denoted by a {F}, {P}, {A} and/ or a {K} A {K} Denotes that the skill can be used by everyone.
 
{K}Phazon Gun: The mainstay of the Yaerian military. Fires small bolts of plasma, depending on the ship and location you are in, the weapon can fire bigger bolts without fear of killing everything you love. Has a tendency to light atmospheres on fire, and is not recommended to fire on Max setting unless in void operations. Comes in Snubnose and pistol variants. Considered the standard weapon of the Yaerian Consolidated Republic
{K}Linear Rifle:  A Railgun, used to breach airlocks and shoot through walls. Comes with a safety setting that disables the Pierce mode for when atmospheres are a must in spaceships.
{K}Flechette Gun: A Futurists shotgun designed to kill battle frames, is deadly as it sounds and is used to clear rooms of unarmored personnel,  friendly fire incidents on BattleFrames with this weapon are not uncommon, and have resulted in Platform disabling or termination, beware.
{A}{P}Salvaging: The act of cutting things apart into manageable chunks to carry in your inventory, along with making them usable in some situations.
{A}Robotics: The art of repairing, activating or deactivating BattleFrames and unidentified platforms, along with the various augments of the Yaerian Republic.
{A}Medical: The art of treating, mending or otherwise assisting wounded of the Yaerian Nature. It is expected of Starknight Medics to be able to deal with robotics in a minor way to be able to treat the semi-synthetic nature of Starknights.
{A}{F}CyberWarfare: It is to be noted that although Positron Minds CAN initiate hack ware intrusions to enemy computational systems, they are inferior to dedicated Yaerian Cyber Warfare specialists, and Battle frames can only go up to a +2 in Cyberwarfare.
{P}Psionics Amplification: the act of using Psionics in combat related applications.
{P}Psionic endurance: The mental conditioning required to be able to sustain Psionic abilities in the field.
{F} Internal Repair: The act of directing the nanite entities present in your system to repair your damage. Far, far less effective than external assistance, and requires complete focus.
{K} Close Quarters Combat: The act of fighting in close combat, without long bladed weapons, usually fought with bayonets attached to weapons, boot knives, or with some battle frames built in knives on their manipulating limbs. Battle Frames who specialize in CQC will have the option of replacing their arms with high-energy blades at the expense of being unable to use ranged weaponry.
{K}Plasmatic Weapons: Essentially a Phazon gun without any of the containment fields. Essentially a flamethrower, and should be treated as such. Considered to be a war crime in ancient times. but desperate times call for desperate weapons.
{A}Piloting: Piloting spaceborne vehicles,  Starknights are not expected to be piloting Yaerian Vehicles, but there may be chances for Enemy vehicles to be present in Hangar Bays.
{A}{F}Explosives: All Starknight program constituents have been closely screened for any sanity to be seized before being allowed to handle the high-grade explosives of the Yaerian Republic. Oorah.
{A} Structural Engineering: Any Electrical, Mechanical or other less savory types of engineering focussed on the structure of structures. Will be commonly used to deduct maintenance tunnels, weak spots and perhaps optimal explosive points, and fix equipment.
 
If I have missed any glaringly obvious and useful skill, please PM me.
 
Abilities
 
Simply put, they are what make you, you. They might do some, they might do a little.
 
Iron-willed: You can easily fight back the pain, it’s second nature to you. Pain will not affect you when you get hurt, when in reason.
Paranoid: You have a second sense when it comes to ambushes, traps and general malaise when it's pointed towards your squad, maybe.
Prepared: You come loaded to bare. Multiply your ammo by 1.5.
Fleet-Footed: You can move fast, really fast. Spending a tertiary and a secondary action to move will count as being under cover when reasonable.
Sadistic: You take special pride in your horrific ability to kill people in such a way as to maim, break and destroy in a way that is absolutely disturbing. This has become a point of contestation with high command.
Disciplined: You're straight as a razorblade, and never falter under explosions, fire or close quarters combat. In scary scenarios, you're more likely to keep your head in the game and do the right thing.
 
Other? : Come up with a special ability and If it is approved you have that ability, and it can do anything that it was approved to within reason.
 
Psionic abilities are different. They are more like domains from which you can control, and in your case, it is neatly used to kill people, among other things. Describe a domain, whether it is fire, Gravity or Kinetic energy, or anything that fancies you, as long as it is not silly. You will have a way to kill with it, and maybe a couple other tactical uses. You will NOT be able to pick the mind as a domain, or anything near such. Otherwise, go nuts, it’s your character and it is essentially space magic without the magic.
 
Or is it?

 

Spoiler:  How does whitelist work? (click to show/hide)

You can put down a  “reserve” for a whitelist spot of a specific subspecies and when a player/pawn is removed from the game, I will pick an individual to replace them. You will have to state which sub-species you want to become, and you can pick multiple subspecies, but when you are picked and you die, you HAVE  to register for the whitelist again, but another player will take your whitelist spot if there were any behind you. Typically, wounds that are serious enough such as maiming or otherwise may result in a retiring from the program after a mission is over, depending on how severe it is. This typically means the loss of higher mental functions or your lower body, limbs can be replaced.
Currently, there are 3 Augmented slots, 2 Psionic Spots, and 5 Frame spots available for play.
If you do not post an action I will decide the action that makes the most sense for your character. If I have to do this three times your character is somehow removed from the game, typically non-lethally and another player reinforces the squad.

I’d like to thank Piecewise, Harry Baldman and a couple other individuals for setting me right on the path of making this RTD. Seriously. They rock.

Weapons and Ammo

Combat Knife: It’s a knife. Really sharp, painted not to reflect the light. You remember your fond years where you lost your knife and got called a boot by your drill instructors.

Phazon Pistol: A Phazon that shoots Phazon bolts. Can only shoot Safety or low power rounds. Commonly used in CQC situations due to how easy it is to pull out from its smartly designed holster.

Phazon Pistol Magazines: It can shoot 30 Safety rounds and 15 Low Power rounds, can fit in a rifle, but high risk of equipment damage if it is used in a higher then recommended setting.

Phazon Rifle: A weapon that fires tiny balls of magnetically contained plasma. Past fifty meters the weapon is useless, but you are not expected to fight beyond fifty meters with this weapon. Safety shots are bolts of plasma the size of a pinhead, Low power shots are the size of a bead, Normal power shots are the size of a penny, Maximum shots are the size of a quarter.
 
Phazon Rifle Chambers: essentially the magazine of a gun, combining both gas tank and fusion battery into one package designed to be accepted into a Phazon Rifle. 60 Safety shots, 40 low power shots, 30 Normal shots, 20 Maximum Shots.

Linear Rifle: A big, scary sniperrifle-like gun with magnetic coils lining the barrel. Shoots balls of Neodymium Steel straight at the bad guys, through walls, airlocks and bulkheads. Comes with a safety mode that makes the railgun fire a flat head “bolt” that acts as a hammer instead of a knife.
 
Linear Rifle Magazines: magazines that contain enough ammunition to fire 15 shots, along with a battery lining to power the Rifle. Smart.

Snubnose Phazon Rifle: Cannot shoot Maximum rounds, takes Rifle chambers, handles better in general then a regular Rifle.

Class 1 Fragmentation Grenades: Frag out. They are grenades. But in space, so they are deadly.

Flechette Cannon: A flechette Cannon. It’s lethal as hell, and even you are scared of the damned thing, commonly used to clear alleyways and small hangerbays.
 
Flechette box: Contains the chemical propellants and metals required to fire the Flechette Cannon six times.

Class Six Incinerator Grenade: A grenade the size of your fist that is commonly used for clearing entire hangar bays without even entering said hanger bay. It is recommended that you seal the room it is thrown in before it detonates, as it is known to cause thermal shock cracks in deck plates. Sane Yaerians don’t use this weapon, as there was a debate involving whether giving this grenade to Pointmen would be classified as a war crime, if it wasn't against alien scum.

Plasmatic Thrower: A set of gas tanks, pipes and magnets required to send blasts of burning hot plasma at your enemies. It’s deadly as hell, and presumably just as painful. Commonly used to turn corners in corridors and clear hallways at the same time. Can act as a messy fusion cutter if the nozzle is aimed. the maximum range is around 25 meters, but fire it long enough in a room and the gas can melt personnel without even touching them.
 
Plasmatic Fuel Tanks: All the fuel you will need for forty-five seconds of burn time each, more if you restrain the nozzle and focus the blasts of plasma.

Class 2 High Explosive Grenades: They are painted blue like blood. They have to be deadly.

 
Snubnose Phazon Rifle Ranger Variant: Cannot shoot Maximum rounds, takes Rifle chambers, handles better in general then a regular Rifle. Comes with specialized Gyroscopes and other equipment to let it be used with only one hand with difficulty
 
High-frequency Energy blades: Essentially a blade of magnetically contained plasma around a very durable alloy blade. Due to a built in fusion reactor in your chest, this can be sustained indefinitely.

Universal Equipment

Survival Kit: A small set of equipment in your various storage areas in your hard suit that lets you (with a very low chance) survive a ship re-entering an atmosphere, survive up to a week in a desolate wreck and a couple other small scenarios. Includes a feeding and drinking tube from a liquid storage bag designed to keep you alive for around a week and a half.
 

SK Hardsuit: A powerful and lean hard suit, comes with a helmet and enough built-in electronics to be totally modular. No shields, just armor plates, and enough myomer strands to make you more of a super soldier then you were before. The helmet is equipped with a HUD that denotes your friendlies status, your status, your guns ammunition, and comes with various optical modes. You will not have a problem seeing the enemy unless your not looking at them, or they're wearing some sort of optical cloak.
 
Oxygenation Pack: A set of two oxygen tanks, and a filter along with a compressor.  The Filter will be able to supply you with an indefinite amount of air on a Unitarian ship, in a high-risk atmosphere it declines to around 30 hours depending on said atmosphere. The Oxygen tanks will last around ten hours each in non-strenuous activity. Additional air tanks may be given depending on the situation at hand.
 
Operator Medical System: A built-in system in the hard suit to diagnose and treat wounds, despite several severe incidents from this system, it’s perfectly safe, and will automatically attempt stabilize you if you are critically wounded.
 
Distress Pulser: A pulsar that denotes your location and that you are in a state of distress if activated, depending on the setting and if its connected to a external power source, can be used to get evac from other starships.
 
Augment Base: A set of augments that allow you to have more augments, and to control the ones you got, and connects itself to your hardsuits HUD, so you can see your augments status. You can control your suit and suit functions with thoughts. They also make you really strong, hellishly fast, and absurdly deadly in combat.
 
Psionic Augment Base: A set of augments that allow you to have more augments, and to control the ones you got, and connects itself to your hardsuits HUD, so you can see your augments status. You can control your suit and suit functions with thoughts. They also make you really strong, hellishly fast, and absurdly deadly in combat. They have been specially designed around your psionics, and are weaker in comparison to an average Augmented, and are error prone at times.
 
Military grade frame: Military Grade polymers and alloys are composed of this machine's frame, muscles and other such.
 
Type A Myomere Muscle Cables: A set of powerful Muscle cables that are more powerful than similarly dense organic muscle fibers.
 
Standard Electronics: A set of capacitors, transistors and other components designed to act as an effective interface between a Positronic Brain and a BattleFrame.
 
SMES battery: A Super Magnetic Electrical Storage Battery. Small chance of being defective, and when damaged, will explode violently. Comes with a Self-Pulverization command which self-destructs the frame it is installed in and results in a roughly spherical ball of waste material in case of capture.
 
Gamma level Positronic Brain:A incredibly complex machine that acts as a brain. On the Yaerian AI intelligence scale it is not considered truly intelligent at all, below the Delta classification.
 
Class Equipment

Fusion Cutting Torch: It’s a torch designed to cut through walls and seal airlocks, or seal walls and cut through Airlocks. Kind of loud in a atmosphere. Use time is around 5 meters worth of cutting.
 
Medical Diagnostics Augments: A set of augments that allows you to summarize the exact state of health of a Yaerian Individual through optical tests, and if needed a blood test and some more thorough scans via augments in the palm.
 
Medical Kit: A kit of medical supplies, distributed in the various pockets and belts on your hardsuit. Lets you treat almost any ailment short of beheading, and even then. Whether they enter combat capable state is another question.
 
AlienJack: A cyberjack modified with the express purpose of interfacing with alien equipment as well as Yaerian Machines. You can interface with alien equipment at the speed of thought.
 
CyberJack: A augment placed upon your spine with the purpose of interfacing with Yaerian equipment at the speed of thought. It is lovingly worn and tenderly maintained. You can't interface with alien equipment, the jack cannot fit in the hole right.
 
Tool kit: A set of wrenches, screw drivers and other equipment designed to let you take apart anything, and to a lesser degree repair synthetics.

Alloy Shield: A chunk of starship-grade metal turned into a slab and equipped with grips and a viewing camera built into the front that feeds straight to your HUD. Viewing slit optional.

Fusion Torch replacement tank: A gas tank and battery combined to refill the Cutting torch.
 
Repair Kit: A set of tools, a Fusion Cutter, some nanopaste and a couple other bits of equipment all required to make a Battle Frame leap once more.

 
Type B Myomere Muscle cables: your cables are superior in some aspects compared to other machines, less durable, but with far more “explosive” power. Tertiary actions move just as fast as Secondary Action moves. Sustained usage of the cables will result in voided warranties and torn cables.

Eye Drone
standard mapping/scouting drone copter. belly-mounted manipulator arm, advanced sensor suite, tiny retractable legs and micro-thrusters to move in zero-g.

Glimpse Drone
take an Eye model scouting drone. replace the sensor suite with a much more basic one and the grasper arm with a cyber interface jack. use the weight/space freed up by the basic sensors to add in a basic set of dedicated hacking tools. you have a "Glimpse"

Raptor Drone
Same basic frame as an Eye, but replaced the arm with a Phazon pistol. has to be reloaded externally.

Well never heard of System Override, but I'm game to play. Hmm, actually what do BattleFrames look like generally speaking? And would some form of shield be possible?

What kind of shield are we talking about?

Just a clarification, I have not at all made a set up for Battle-Frames, they are designed to be a little more experimental in the fact that if you give me an item pack I will likely set it in the official choice log and add it to the catalog. Also, abilities are supposed to be chosen outside of the list, preferably.

Battle frames are the catch-all term for machinery used in warfare in Yaerian space, and int his particular case, boarding ships. they can be big tank war machines or fast raptor-like machines with frills that act as heat dissipators, but they are usually painted white plates with black under systems and a couple small blue lights.

Well I was thinking something physical like a Ballistic Shield maybe something out of Rainbow Six.

By the way would a picture work as a description? Cause I think I got an idea.

[Blood_Librarian]

Ah, yeah that would be fine, of course.

The ideas I had for Battle frames was that they were similiar to the toher architecture of the Yaerian Republic: Stark white plates, black paint inbetween the chinks of armor, kind of like white plastic moulded onto a black metal frame. Of course it's less mass manufcature and each piece being a "art" statement, so a little bit of such and such from warframe, I also included a couple images I've found by browsing hte web a little and deviant art that fit the general style of a Battle Frame when melted together.

In terms of actual looks and the like, they can be as wide and varied as their are options for that kind of thing, as long as they can fit in an airlock and conceivably be a use in a fight.

@Crazyabe

Both character sheets are looking good with only a couple problems, but I request that you change your abilities to something else. Another word that can describe them, and describe to me how it will effect the game. If you're placed into the game I will change the description into some mind of mechanic changes.  I'm just assuming that your thinking of a better name to put down since it is WIP.

Abilities are essentially the quirks and other such about the character that set them apart from the other troops in the game. This can be something as little as always keeping a suit breach kit on them to being the type of person that can just pick up a firearm and be able to use it even with alien grips and foreign equipment.

@Slick, I'll create the "battle shield" Item pack shortly.

[crazyabe]

Sheet changed.

[Blood_Librarian]

You have the choice of getting two abilities.

[Coolrune206]

My sheet has been modified.

[Blood_Librarian]

I'm looking for at least 3-5 people with well-finished character sheets before I start this.

@crazyabe, you picked two equipment packs when you should've picked the universal pack fo your sub-species and one regular equipment pack.

[crazyabe]

Fixed.

Hey would Close Quarters Combat effect shield users?
