@Caellath Well, I wanted to let someone else have a stab here at piloting the warship, but since Cheesecake is taking tech-priest (I had in mind either that or tech-minded Void-Master), I'll go ahead and take the pilot seat with the campaign character.

@Sirus From what I saw, Wrex is a very nice and reasonable GM. Just bring it up to him, try to explain the situation and state your reasoning for that out-of-the-road pick, and hopefully it'd be okay. He allowed me to swap in the Hand of War instead of Calamity because it fit thematically (worked either way for me, but was somewhat better for RP reasons), so I hope it shouldn't be a problem for your character either.

Nik, where did you get Talented (Pilot: Spacecraft) from? In case it was from repeated Skills during chargen, you don't get the Talented talent, but instead your skill rises to +10.

I got Hatred (Eldar) and Peer (Military) talents twice. Thus Talented (Command)&(Pilot:Spacecraft).

I see now. I had noticed the repeated Hatred, but not the Peer instance.

Hopefully this is done right. I don't know what to spend my experience on either. Maybe on Mechadendrite Use?

Bought Int, S, and T advances. Also bought Tech-Use+10.

I got Cortex Implants and Calculus Logi Implants, for even more brainpower. I spent the 200xp on upgrading the Cortex Implants into Good-Craftsmanship. I also get yet another 1d10 Insanity Points!

Wounds 2 out of 1d5, Fate 5 out of 1d10. As for experience, the starting points are usually either blown on Into the Storm's alternative origin path options or on characteristic advances. Intelligence advances in your case, for example.

I spent my xp.

Starting Wounds: Forge world characters double their
starting Toughness Bonus and add 1d5+1 to the result to
determine their starting number of Wounds.

So, if the roll was 2, then I add 1 and 8 for my toughness bonus doubled? So would my wounds be 11? Also, I need to have my Insanity points rolled. (1d5+1 insanity points and another 1d5 insanity points.)

Alright, I can't find the motivation to finish up the character sheet and it seems this will start soon, so you may as well try to find another player if you need one. Sorry.

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

@zomara: 89.

@Cheesecake: Yes (2+1+8). 10 IP. And you can't purchase Tech-Use +10; it's from Rank 2 and you don't have enough experience to purchase advances from there. You also get two free common craftsmanship bionics (Special Abilities section of the core book, chapter 2).

He did, but the rulebook stuff that was sent is laid out extremely confusingly and I can't even open half of it, so I don't know what that character can actually do or really near anything about the system, and I can't think of a backstory or anything.

You just need the "Rogue Trader" book and I'm not really asking for backstories here.

I think I'm finally done. Just need even more Insanity Points for the Mad Scientist.
