Brutus Aurelius that's what I was waiting for. From what I've read so far, it's a major part of character creation.

Everyone who is thinking of a background should wait a bit until I have the available homeworlds, as they will color your character's upbringing and personality. Oops just sent you a PM with my thoughts, feel free to disregard lol.

Class: Expert Name : Marconi Eisenwahr
Home world: Laspera
Background: Worker/local transport (culture:laspera, nav, land vehicles, postech)
Expert skills: Adventure expert (Nav, sci, comp, religion, medtech, security)
Navigation and general Sci-techspert
Outlook: philosophical, but won't neglect the practical
6'1" black hair brown eyes, slender.
wears tan jumper and jacket that just a bit too small he's had since a teen
Grew up poor with a few pieces of tech he had to repair as his only toys
Mom died when he was 13, his father a year later.
Later half of 14 on worked as an errand runner, occasionally given a chance to be a pair of hands in postech repairs shops due to his recognized knack for not screwing tech things up, poor pay but enough to survive on.
Damaged his dominant right hand moving a broken piece of tech, no medtech was available to him and it never healed quite right. Learned to use his left hand, but still a little clumsy for it. For more delicate work he'll talk someone more able thru things to be his hands.
Managed to get off world at 18, on a mixed role vessel - aside from being a general tech hand, managed to get some time working as an assistant to a researcher on the previous vessel before coming to his current ship at 26.

Attributes...
STR:12 INT:15 (+1) WIS:11 DEX:7 (-1) CON:13 CHR:14 (+1)
Saving throws...

Just installed Dice Calculator by DungeonZ from Google Play. Free app and lets you set up a variety of formulas. Will wait until Brutus Aurelius tells us exact roll method he wants us using to generate mine. The game gives a couple methods and he mentioned them so figure better to make sure I do it right to start with.

I'm fine with 4d6, drop the lowest, any order, no point transfer.

Ok, so Sector TB-348 is coming along well. All planets have been randomly generated and given names and groupings. I'm working on pulling the tags into a coherent description All I need to do is generate Faction names and descriptions and you guys will have a list of homeworlds.

Krieger Class: Warrior, Space Marine
Still need to write rolls down, but I did get a 17 so that's looking up.
Meet Krieger. At first glance you would only take him for a runt, a nervous one at that. He's short and scrappy looking, with wild hair, but his eyes tell a different story entirely, as you could swear he could run you through with just a glance... The nervous tics of a neurotic man seem to fade into thin air the moment he puts on his power armor. A twitchy, unstable human being instantly becomes as smooth and serene as a flowing brook.
Intensely agoraphobic, his suit is the only thing holding him together, it seems.
More to come, crazy busy today...

Character backstory: Found in the cargo bay of a ship, he was made a ward of the planet <>. He ran away from the orphanage at age 4 and began living on the streets and outside the city in the wilderness. Was involved with a local gang in his teens, but further info is unknown due to the records being sealed from when the gang was busted. Has no problems being by himself. Only gets close to those he trusts but doesn't actively seek the company of others. He tends to treat most people as if there just some other animal that's there. If you're a threat, he'll be openly on guard and aggressive towards you. Has a sweet tooth and fondness for reading and watching cartoons. Always has at least one knife on him but tells everyone on a normal day he has no less than seven hidden on him.

I would say you can work on their personalities, but wait for their back story until Brutus gives us our sector information.

Just checking in before work. Are we generating characters or are we waiting for the map to finish? You can generate characters now, stat wise. I'll have background ready for the planets soon.

En1gma nothing is final yet, I'm still in the planning stage. Just trying to see where things can go. I may have made some mistakes so I'll wait for final approval from brutus. That's how I like to do things. Work something up real quick, see if it will meet the requirements, fine tune any thing the DM\GM wants me to and then proceed to cause as much havoc as I can in the shortest amount of time possible First D&D game I played, as soon as the party got to town and the DM asked what I want to do, I said "I want to go to the brothel!" Every ones jaws dropped because no one had ever played a character that want to do that. As one person said "All my years of playing D&D and there's never been a brothel in the game!"
