Posting to confirm my interest and also so I can stay up to date after NP walks me through Character creation and I post my sheet.

[Gamerlord]

Damn, I'm gonna need to find a list of stuff I can get as a tech-priest.

[VoidSlayer]

Okay, I am going to take Precognition, Flashbang, Quick Draw and Unremarkable.

Also grabbing a normal quality cloak for 10 thrones, hey I might be humble now but no need to go around in rags.

[GiglameshDespair]

I'd like to roll availability for a flak vest (average, 100 thrones). If it's available, sell the shotgun for 60 and the quilted jacket for 10 to give me 100 to pay.

I'll sell the brass knuckles for 5 thrones, and buy 40 autopistol rounds for 2 thrones.

That'll leave me with
autopistol and 3 clips, 4 spare autopistol bullets, knife, 12 shells, brass knuckles, street ware (Poor Quality Clothing), ancestral sabre (memento), tube of bright red lipstick (memento), and flak vest
3 thrones

You successfully find a flak jacket (I'm assuming you meant the jacket due to the price and your PM). You make your purchases without issue.

That leaves you with 100xp as your first Minor Power was free. You grab a cloak. A homeless person buys your old rags for a Throne.

[VoidSlayer]

The only armor I need is the Emperors grace.  It also seems to be the only thing I can afford.

I think I will grab Drive (Ground Vehicle).  We can begin Grand Theft Auto: Stern Hope by seizing a vehicle if we do not have one.

On a more serious note, would a monoedge sword be in my price range?  Keeping the weapon primitive seems like a recipe in disaster.

The mono upgrade costs 40 Thrones.

[GiglameshDespair]

All my XP was spent, Nobody.

All, I'd like to roll availability on Flak cloak (errata'd to All, 3AP, 80 thrones, scarce), and if so I'd sell my flak jacket and buy that instead, giving me an extra 20 thrones.

Also, I'm keeping those 12 shotgun shells, please. I plan to get a better shotgun later, but for now, not getting my organs shot out of my torso is more important.


And because the character is still rather skeletal without a description and backstory.

Spoiler: Description (click to show/hide)

Karna is a tall, well built woman, her skin the colour of chocolate. Her lips are blood-red with her habitual lipstick, her long hair dyed a similar colour and pulled into a tall ponytail. Her eyes are a deep emerald green, but that fails to hide the cruelty within.

She wears - a memento from her last job - what is almost a parody of a military uniform. A proper guard-issue flak [cloak/jacket] is left open to reveal her green-and-black corset and skirt, the skirt reaching to just cover the tops of her thigh-high boots. Atop her head is a peaked cap. A sabre, ornate, is sheathed at her side.

Spoiler: backstory (click to show/hide)

Karna was born to a different name, of course, to a noble house n the Alzakar Hive on Gorgal-4. The noble house was dying: the Lord was mad, the Lady dead, the money gone - Karna decided to find a life elsewhere. Her sister could carry on as the heir of the house - Karna had no patience to wait for inheritance, and poisoning the others was too risky.

She found a job at the Carnivora, the grand bloodsport circus of the hive. Not as a fighter, oh no - but as an announcer and spokeswoman for the interests of the circus. Rare and vicious beasts, criminals, gladiators and the occasional Ecclesiarchy execution of those accused of witchery and heresy.
Such a place, by quantity of materials moving and people coming and going, become hotbeds for crime and smuggling. It's how they get the best goods, of course. In doing so she's made contacts in the underworld, that, with a bit of luck, span the sector, provided her flutters her eyelashes.

Eventually, something gained the Inquisition's attention... and in the ensuing crackdown, she managed to talk the Inquisitor into hiring her. This could be interesting...

All my XP was spent, Nobody.

That was for VoidSlayer .

Done.

Added to the OP.

[Caellath]

Too bad it was FCFS. Well, better luck for this team than we had... Though to be honest, we didn't have the worst of luck.

[Yoink]

Oh man, NobodyPro running a 40kRPG game? I'm watching this for sure.
I'll also take a spot on the waitlist if such a thing exists.

I'm sure someone will die and open a spot soon enough.

[GiglameshDespair]

Doublepost fun: I would like to buy a frag grenade. (10t, common)

Sell my knife, and try to obtain 18 man-stopper rounds for my autopistol (5 thrones for 6 so 15 thrones, scarce availability).
