I think you would like another character? Becuase I would be happy to join if you will have the one known as Ath :3

Almost done compiling the currently submitted sheets. Looks like it'll be up either late tonight or some time tomorrow.

Spoiler: Lying diplomat (click to show/hide)

Okay, I believe that is correct in terms of stats and I would assume the rest is going to be handled over pms and working together to build a character that fits the world?

I'll also need a backstory, posted here.

There's likely room for one more, especially as some of the folks who posted I haven't been able to get a response from since.

I tweaked my sheet, both crunch and fluff. We'll need to discuss some specifics later.

[Expletive deleted] this is going to take longer than expected, partly due to new entries to evaluate and partly due to my net dying for an extended period of time today. But I've kept this waiting for too long.

Since this is the first pass on this, as compared to the others, I'll go ahead.

For the skill categories, which you have under "stats" here, you get 10 points to distribute between the categories themselves and 6 proficiencies to select among the skills within. You've distributed the points to individual skills instead, which isn't quite how this works. For instance, instead of putting 3 points into Computer Science directly, you'd have 3 points in Science, and a proficiency in Computer Science.

As for the fluff, it's good. The only thing is I'd say Wild Space Kraken is probably one of SolFed's numerous defense contractors, and so the "doctrine" would be theirs rather than that of SolFed in general, since I have different plans for those.

Glad to see this is still going. I'll have to look over my sheet and see what there is to tweak when I get the time.

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

Here's all the sheets, as is, without additional mechanics added. I need to contact some of these people to see if they're still in, as unfortunately they didn't get as much conversation as others.

Let's get the fluffs finalized

Theta-Rho-348

See previous post of mine

Lilith Hartmeißner

Overall I'm okay with this, but one juvenile destroying an entire planet's ecosystem seems kind of extreme, unless maybe it was more of a small planetoid.

Raioyris

I am really confused by this one. Who/what/why did this come to exist? What happened to land Raioyris in prison?

-snip-

Stats are still good, but we still don't have any fluff on your Rtalis. But not to worry, you can still write one up.

Spar Ki of the Thread Rider

Concept is still good, but you could probably flesh him out a bit more, give us some more details about personality/life/etc?

Theodosius Kantos

Again, I'm still not sure why he'd be locked up in SolFed space prison, as that seems like an entirely planetary conflict? It sounds like he'd just be locked up on Kosmosi.

Also, I notice you've got his balance of Augury vs Actuation, but he doesn't actually have any points in Mindweaving. Did you intend him to? It's alright if not, it's just that step is unnecessary if your char isn't a Mindweaver.

Seven
Still good, though your backstory fluff is still on a google doc where most folk's can't see it.

2 points in Mindweaver, all Actuation. We shall hash out your specific Mindweave talents in the next step.

Name: Sebastian Burrell
Looks good to me, being a space pirate is something one could get imprisoned for but also still qualify for parole, so that issue's solved.

1 point in Mindweaving, leaning towards Augury, we shall discuss what that gets you later. Probably some minor perceptual/mind related things, along with the ability to minorly tweak things in the physical space around you.

V'ralis (alias "Blue Shadow")

Looks good! Only problem is that once incarcerated by SolFed, the Academy probably wouldn't have any sway over R'valis' fate. The deal to lease out his services from prison would be arranged entirely between SolFed and the Kiric caravaneers. Though the Academy would certainly want to know about the outcome of the mission.

5 in Mindweaving, with full focus on Augury. Going by fluff you'll probably be working with powerful memory-altering abilities, and possibly straight-up mind control. 5 in Mindweaver certainly means you're potent enough to go for that if you want. We'll discuss your style and abilities.

Cascadia Alentrussel The III

We'll have to cut off or change the last bit of the backstory. The premise of this game is that your character is imprisoned, and being leased out for a potentially lethal mission carries the reward of a significantly reduced or even negated sentence.

5 in Mindweaving with a slight lean towards Actuation. There's a lot of options here, just as a point of reference these numbers would let you lift and throw a person with your mind (20 Actuation would be throwing cars) if you want telekinesis, but you don't necessarily have to go the telekinesis route for Actuation. Though as something you might want to think about for fluff, 5 in Mindweaving means your character has dedicated a large amount of time and effort to getting powerful at it.



Well, 10 entries. I think two are probably not going to participate (though we'll see), which probably leaves us with 8. I think I'll be able to work with that party size but it's a bit larger than I originally planned. Might have to trim one or two in the end though.

Looks like we probably have quite a few Mindweavers. Only a couple really powerful ones though, so it we should have enough mundane skills to be well rounded.

Will write up a good story sometime when I'm more awake.
