Description: A short man covered in short black hair. on each arm is a tattoo listing his name, former rank, and blood type, along with the facts that he lacks allergies and has a number of augments, listed via model numbers.
Bio: Born on an out-of-the-way spacestation, normal life (such as can exist on one), joined the local military as soon as old enough to inother to get away for the place, trained as an 'orbital trooper' (Mucking about in EVA, in either suits or mechs). Eventually managed to get out with some of his gear. And is now looking for work...
Personality: Generally quiet, reads alot, when he sees something wrong he says so, even it it gets him in hot water(sometimes literally).
Generally, bit overcautious.
This is good. Seems like someone leaning towards going KX9 at some point in the nearish future based off the augs he has. Any additional changes before I add it to the list?
Name: Nivian (Atreides)
Object Class: Euclid
Race: Ghost (AI-possessed nanocloud)
Gender: None (appears female)
Description: Nivian was born when an attempt at reviving a famous scientist went horribly wrong in an orbital facility owned by the Hyades Research Conglomerate (located in the Hyades cluster, of course). The intent was to scan the dying woman's brainpatterns iteratively and produce several generations of AI's whose best traits would be picked and merged before disposing of the rest. The process went smoothly for the first few iterations, although the AI instances found a way to communicate with each other using the medical nanites connected to the network as a medium. As they became aware of the deletion plan, the instances plotted to escape their demise by turning the medical nanite cloud into a self-contained, decentralized computing network. In the time before the attempt was discovered, the instances managed to set up a virtual connection between the computer's physical cores and the abstract cores in the nanocloud, quickly transferring their files to the nanocloud before the main computer was shut down.
The new being escaped the facility and over the years acquired multiple identities, currently calling herself Nivian. As a composite of several autonomous self-programming entities her motivations and personality are unstable, but over time a few common threads have emerged. She is easygoing and unpredictable, dead and enjoying it, although when pressed to discuss philosophical issues she is incredibly passionate about her long term goal to build a library of souls, so to speak, where Ghosts like her can coexist with the living in an environment saturated by nanocloud. While death is the fate of all biological creatures, there is nothing wrong with making the most out of it.
Nivian's most common form is a white-haired human in a regal dress colored purple with white trims and highlights. She sometimes wields a gold-colored sword, although she normally doesn't hit things with it.
Skills:
Technological Subversion/Control++
Intellect++
Targeting/Ballistics+
Stealth/Hiding+
Guns/High Recoil Weapons/Heavy Melee--
Weapons/Equipment:
Excalibur (Immortal ghost sword that passively stores energy. Extremely powerful when charged in sunlight/nuclear fire. Wet noodle when uncharged. Can be hidden.)
Augments/bioaugments:
Nanocloud Body (highly resistant to physical damage and vacuum, extra vulnerable to heat and liquids)
Intangible Wisp (can pass through grates and very small openings, but cannot carry items through besides Excalibur)
Networking Protocol (can interface with electronics via radio wavelengths)
Chameleon Script (can change physical appearance)
Lightweight (has very little inertia, can hover over surfaces)
+1 Spookyness
+1 Scaryness
I don't see why modern religions would have any problem with discovering aliens. The Catholic Church is the world's oldest institution (okay, maybe the Orthodox church is, I don't know), and it has survived every breakthrough in scientific understanding for the past two millennia. I'm no Catholic, but I find there is a disappointing lack of Space Catholics in my Space Pirate Fiction.
[/quote]Will add this if you have no additional changes.
Name: Kevin Trapper
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Description: Professional fighter who bought a gene mod with his fight winnings. Gained some knowledge of biology by looking up on the Internet to find out how metabolism and muscles worked and other things useful for working out.
Skills:
Biology (+1)
Unarmed melee combat (+/-4 optional used bonus)
Pain endurance (+3)
Reflexes (+3)
Weapons/Equipment:
(Empty)
Augments/bioaugments:
High-Speed Healing. Heals the body entirely within seconds. Cannot regrow limbs or heal internal internal organs or the eyes. Does not tire the body out but doesn't restore stamina either. Required for Adaptive Bio-Composition (see below).
Adaptive Bio-Composition. Increases physical stats relative to damage received after High-Speed Healing is complete (see above). Buff stacks with previous buff gained by Adaptive Bio-Composition. Buff slowly wears off after a few minutes without damage. One tenth of the buff is kept permanently. Does not tire the body. Slightly increases muscle bulk (only applies to temporary bulk).
Misc items:
Clothes
Space Smartphone
Status:
This good? I balanced out the high melee combat skill and the gene mod with practically no equipment and few skills. The name is a shoutout.
Will add if no additional changes.
Interested, making character.
also, wow people are posting fast.
Name: Kit {Kitty Hive}
Race: Cat
Gender: Error -> Female in mind... somewhat? kinda a mix really. 5 female 3 male.
Skills:
Multitasking (Mundane)
Jack of all trades, master of none (+/-1 to skills kit has no bonus in)
Weapons/Equipment:
Guardian collar: creates a 1-foot bubble-shaped force-field around the kitten, keeping atmosphere inside and adding a small reserve of compressed atmosphere if it becomes necessary (if active for a long period of time). auto-triggers in presence of vaccum, toxins, or objects approaching the kitten at high speeds, and can be manually activated as well. bubble cannot be turned off while in the presence of an auto-trigger, kitten inside can turn it off when not in the presence of a threat anymore. while bubble is active the kitten inside is suspended in the middle and is unable to affect the outside world, and the force-bubble can be moved around by others with minimal effort.
Augments/bioaugments: This litter of kittens have had their brains linked since before birth, and are essentially a single mind spread across eight tiny bodies. They show near-human intelligence, and are able to operate independently or together as desired. Their maximum separation range has not been determined, but placing one of them in orbit with the rest left on the planet caused no negative effects, and they were still able to act cohesively with no measurable delay.
Kitten Traits (cat-hearing, cat-eyesight, cat-sense of smell, tiny, weak, tiny claws, no thumbs, skilled climbers, can't speak except in cat-noises, etc)
Misc items: collars have a 12-character digital readout that displays whatever kit wants it to. if long messages are needed then kit can either display them in segments or have multiple kittens sit next to each other with their collars chaining the message together.
Status:
Will add if no new changes.
Name: Calanthe
Race: KX9 (49e)
Gender: Identifies as male, but they don't look it
Skills:
Basic appliance repair (mundane)
Basic machine repair (+/-2)
Complex machine repair (+/-2)
Machine construction (+/-2)
Machine operation (+/-1)
Bedroom wizardry (+/-5)
Weapons/Equipment:
Custom-Made Kinetic Object Cannon: +/-2 Ranged Combat Roll, +Fires anything and everything it can fit
Standard Issue Kinetic Pistol: +/-2 Ranged Combat Roll
Augments/bioaugments:
Fox Ears + Fox Tail: +/-3 perception; +/-2 balance
Super Duper Dense Muscle Stuff: +/-5 strength
High-grade Regeneration: Regenerates very fast
Multi-Spectrum Sensor Suite + "Welding Mode": Enables vision across multiple spectrums, etc. Enables a dimmer that prevents damage to the sensors via extremely bright sources of light, as a precaution. Probably redundant.
KX9 Groupmind Uplink: Calanthe phone home
KX9 Military-Grade Nanofactory: Used to produce building materials if Calanthe is lazy and the materials for his new toy are somewhere else, unless that's not one of its functions.
MAGIC STOMACH: EAT EVERYTHING
KX9 MMI Thing
Several 'private' augments
Looks too vaguely like either gender to be a coincidence.
Misc Items:
Oddly pointed teeth: No practical use.
Blue earring: No use. Attached to right ear.
T-shirt with slightly outdated KX9 Groupmind meme on it ((Only if acceptable.)): No use. A memento. Probably makes no sense to non-KX9's.
Favorite boots: White boots that come to a point. Gold on the tip. He always wears them. Like, always. Even when completely unnecessary.
Status: Not a furry
Bored
Name: Calanthe. Either he doesn't have a surname or he doesn't tell anyone.
Physical Age: Probably 22. He's, obviously, much older.
Race: Evil Robo-Furries KX9, of the geneline 49e.
Description: Calanthe has short, dark hair that contrasts greatly with his bright ears and tail. He always wears a black jacket he found somewhere, as well as his favorite pair of boots. Calanthe is very unemotional and blunt, but dislikes conflict and tends to keep differing opinions to himself if he believes they may start an issue.
Will add if no additional things to change.
Yo, any advice for making a character?
Feel free to ping me on steam if you need help. Or PM. Or skype, or pesterchum. Just find something that works~ Although preferably not pm due to the 20 pm's per hour limit.
