- | ====== Work for Uso! ====== | ||
- | This is a character creation guide for anyone wanting to get started working for [[: | ||

- | ===== Existing SARP races ===== | ||
- | Anyone can join with an existing character [[guide: | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Overview ==== | ||
- | Tired of working for the man? Bored with your tour of duty? Or maybe you just want to make something for yourself? | ||
- | |||
- | We're here to service our own ambition. To build and do great things. To do away with restraint and get stupidly-wealthy in the process. | ||
- | |||
- | No one lives forever right? | ||
- | |||
- | ==== How did you hear about us? ==== | ||
- | In [[calendar: | ||
- | |||
- | To start, you need to determine how your character heard about this group, and why they are interested in joining. | ||
- | |||
- | Maybe they are involved with the [[guide: | ||
- | |||
- | Perhaps they work in a PMC and have heard about the money that [[plot: | ||
- | |||
- | Or perhaps your character is the type of shady individual who has had underworld dealings in the same circles that [[character: | ||
- | |||
- | Or maybe you're some upstanding individual who's heard of this world one way or another, and want to extend your services in helping uplift the locals? | ||
- | |||
- | === A reason for being here === | ||
- | |||
- | Once the history is determined, you also will need a reason for wanting to come out to the edge of civilized space. Maybe your character is just looking for a paycheck? Maybe they want to make a name for themselves and help build something for themselves. Maybe they are just tired of working for someone else and want to take charge of their own lives. | ||
- | |||
- | === An Occupation === | ||
- | |||
- | They will also need something to do once they reach the planet. Uso's little empire is just starting to grow, and is dealing with obligations to it's allies as well as issues relating to building an advanced society from scratch. Just about any specialty can be accommodated from soldiers, to pilots, to miners, and builders. You should reach out to [[plot: | ||
- | |||
- | ==== History and Skills ==== | ||
- | If you have an occupation in mind, and have an idea for how your character has heard of 188604 then you likely have a good idea of how their history will have been and what skills they have. Pretty much anything is allowed but there are a few exceptions. | ||

- | === Ex-Star Army of Yamatai === | ||
- | If your character is from the [[faction: | ||

- | ==== Character Sheet ==== | ||
- | Once you've got your baseline human ready, go ahead and post in the character approval thread. From there a GM should be able to help you with the rest! | ||

- | ===== Planetary Local ===== | ||
- | [[planet: | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Overview ==== | ||
- | Life on the planet had always been hard. Sandstorms that stretched for miles would sandblast the landscape. The harsh weather would quickly rust or destroy even the most well built machines. Local governments were filled with petty bickering and good food always seemed hard to come by... | ||
- | |||
- | ... then they showed up. | ||
- | |||
- | In less than a month people used to muskets and horse drawn wagons had been expose to Space-Wasps, | ||

- | ==== Species ==== | ||
- | The locals from 188604 are [[species: | ||
- | |||
- | ==== History and skills ==== | ||
- | The planet 188604 prior to first contact has had the majority of its history lost from the collective memory. Everyone knows that they originally came from another world, but the details of that colonization effort have been lost to time. What people are faced with is the harsh reality of living on 188604 with technology that isn't much better than basic metal working, revolvers, horses, and stone/ | ||
- | |||
- | This means your character has basically zero knowledge of the setting at large, and will be fairly clueless about things until they' | ||
- | |||
- | They would be aware of some of the particulars of the planet 188604, they would know the Osman government was the largest one on the planet until Uso arrived and destroyed it. They would know how to survive a sand storm, and deal with harsh weather. Natives of the planet are not very religious, and not highly educated, but they do tend to be somewhat driven as the harsh weather has a way of killing the lazy. | ||
- | |||
- | The skills available to your character will likely be fairly basic, cooking, shooting, horse riding... | ||
