Personality: A wild spirit with no sense of direction in his life.
He is fericly loyal to his friends and only slightly annoyed with his enemies (Guy Garret does not get mad... just annoyed)

Likes: Food, Rock and Roll (mostly anything with good guitar work in it) and small fuzzy animals
Dislikes: Baby land squid, Pinecones, and anything that may or may not look like penguins
Goals: To find an answer to... anything really

Skills:
Fighting and Physical - Haveing been to almost every kind of bar, Guy has learnt to fight, Mostly in Street fighting styles.
Guy also has been in quit a few Street fighting tournments with an overal wining average of 69%.

Vehicles: (Cars and Shuttlecraft{nothing larger then personal space craft though}) You name it, and Guy can drive it. Taught at an early age by his dad, Guy was a quick study and was able tolearn the basics ofalmost any car and ship.

Maintenance and Repair - along with the knowledge of driving, Guy was also taught how to keep his vehicles in top shape and be able to repair them. besides, whats the point in haveing a car if you can't drive it, eh?

Survival and Military - Being able to survive by your wits in the wilderness by yourself with only a towel was one of the first things taught by his dad. it was not one of Storns best ideas though and this led to a bit of a long term fight between him and Sara.

Entertainment - One of the things Sara tryed to teach Guy was how to play the guitar. this was so she knew that Guy would have a healthy Hobby instead of some strange hobby like the one Storn has. (Storn was into makeing lint statues...)

Mathematics - this is more of a... non-skill... Guy has as much Math sense as a cockroach on sugar dust mixed with crack, which is to say he has none.


History: For most of his life Guy Garret has wandered the galaxy in hopes of finding answers to some of his qustions. His parents, Storn Garret and Sara Leard were both Traders, this led to a lot of travel and its really the only thing Guy is comfterable with. Guy has for the most part been to many bars and this has led most of his time fighting over the fact that the Beer Bottle looks like a penguin. Why the beer bottle in general is also a quistion he wants tofind out about. Garret soon decided the best way to travel and find the answers was to join the army. Free food, a bed and the occasanl stop at a planet, it was in his thoughts the best idea he ever had.
(side not... managed to travel by way of parents beat up ol, shuttle. puts most scrap metal to shame really)
 
The first problem is the skills. You used the old skill system, and not the new one. If you look around, you may see that everything in this forum has a different skill system.

As a personal gripe, I dislike having the entire thing bold. It serves no purpose. The text is also jagged with the history, you can edit that out though.

The short history is good, we like that here, and the penguis are perky and intresting. I'm always a fan of perky. However I don't know about wondering the galaxy, it just seems a little strange that he hasn't had a description of doing that in his history, like having a ship, nomadic parents of something.

Thad?
 
The history is good, as long as those fights don't make him a combat veteran. The personality is one of the shorter ones lately. It wasn't bad, you just might want to expand upon it when you edit the skills. It is interesting, the things I mentioned aren't really necessary to change, so you don't have to do anything if you don't want to, except use the new skill system. Good job.
 
Thanks for all the help, I'l have an updated character in a bit.
will have stuff about parents and why he seems to wander around a lot.
plus no, he is not a veteran, just seems to get drunk to much (but not on duty though) and wonder about things that just make people pissed off at him.
 
Character approved.
