Character Sheets, Rule Book, etc



Introduction
You are a band of like-minded adventurers whom have banded together what credit you have to purchase a small ship. It's not much, but it's enough to get off of this rock.

Choose a system for deciding together, plan and pick your adventures and grow - in skill, in person, in wealth, in reputation - and possibly; in infamy.

Gamestyle
- Dungeons and Dragons -like, but evidently Sci-Fi.
- Utter freedom; stick to your ship or ditch it for a base, or both. Build, craft, commission, adventure.
- Free-flow roleplaying, with GM reactions/information input where and as required.
- Turn-based combat with supporting top-down mapping.

Players
There will be a maximum of six players. Post your character sheet and you will be Veto'd. This is first come-first serve by post, with consideration to acceptance.

Sorry Tntey, from the previous games you've been in, I don't think you'll be best suited to this one.

Hmm, would I get vetoed too?  If not, in with sheet later.

Spoiler: Sheet (click to show/hide)

Name:
Saxson M. Smith

Description:
Saxson is a large, bearded man of about 20 years with brown hair and a fierce smile.  Many say that his jean overalls and open-toed sandals aren't appropriate for a ship environment, but he simply tells them that "to be inventive, one must disrupt norms and conventions."

History:
After receiving his degree in aeronautical engineering, Mr. Smith began his career aboard the U.S.S. Zephyr.  It was there that he developed a novel approach to starship repair and engine modification, utilizing everyday materials such as bubblegum, duct tape, and rubber bands in place of more conventional parts and methods. 

For completely unrelated reasons, he swears, the ship crash-landed on a desert planet and the vast majority of the crew perished.  The only survivor, found by rescuers months later, was an unhinged Saxson who had been attempting to escape with an ill-conceived ship made entirely from sand and cacti.  After that debacle, and the fate of the Zephyr, he could only find work on one ship: this one.

Looks good, though I'll reconsider on any anonymous objections by other veto'd players before play - likewise for yourself on others applying.

Name: O. Armal, First name intentionally abbreviated.
Description: a young man of about twenty-five, With dark brown hair and brown eyes. he would seem to be scowling almost constantly at first glance.
History: A young man who enlisted in the local militia, Armal was a somewhat gifted soldier with a knack for aiding his comrades. He was modestly talented in first-aid, allowing him to treat wounds from various weaponry until a professional doctor could reach them.
