I made an ending post for the first chapter in the old IC thread. I think it'll work best if we continue the game in a new thread once everything is figured out and I wanted to get the things finished with the station.

That works. Though once we get things straight for the new thread, we'll want some accounting of what we got to keep from the station.

I honestly don't remember. I'll have to read back through the IC thread as well.

Heh. I just assumed you carried the stuff in and piled them to be sorted later.

Anyways, if I took it right, you all would prefer we continue with d20 Modern?

Hey Relique. The first page of this thread contains most of the character creation rules, and I think it's fair to assume that the "childhood friends group" contains a few more kids who weren't capable to join the venture initially, but could come to help old friends now.

Cool. I'll check over them and start working on a chatracter as soon as I have time (*cough* Thursday after 5pm *cough*)

I would certainly prefer to stick to d20 Modern/Future. But as a fellow player/DM, I also like to make the DM's job as easy as possible.

We've got the follow PCs in:

* Rhun - Damon Knight - front-line fighter, computer expert, comm & sensor operator, and back-up pilot
* Shayuri - Melara Richter - pilot and navigator, front-line/second-line fighter
* Voda - Cnosos Pyropolis - technician, engineer and demolitions

So we are looking to replace our doctor/medic and our "diplomat" for lack of a better term. So if any new PCs could at least include those skills in their builds, that would probably be a good thing.

Any room for another?

I've never played d20 Modern, but I'm *fairly* familiar with the SRDs.

Sounds like you need either a Charismatic or a Dedicated to fufill those roles. I've got a couple of ideas, either a charming rogue-ish type (probably a retread of the character I did for Rolling Man's failed Second Darkness campaign) - Charismatic following the Fast-Talk talent tree, perhaps with Drifter starting occupation, aiming towards Swindler. His main talent is in being likeable. Alternatively, a quiet, centered Dedicated character with the Religious starting occupation, following the Empathic talent tree. Sort of a counsellor and voice of reason.

Let me know if either of these could be fitted in.

I think this concept fits in better with the current PCs. Keep in mind, that we are all supposed to be childhood friends who came together with the idea to make some profit running a fast freighter that we names the Gold Greed.

Yeah, I like your style doc, so sure you're welcome. Both consepts sound fine to me. If you get the chance, you might want to check the supplement D20 Future, though you can find most of the stuff from the official SRD too. d20 ModernSystem Reference Document

And if you have the patience, do check the first adventure so you know a little how it's been so far. After Earth

What little of it there was.

Question Blackrat: How much wealth did we earn with the last mission? there are a few items that Damon would like to purchase...notably some armor and a shotgun or similar weapon. I kinda of see him as a smarter version of Jayne from Firefly.

It looks like you guys are set with 5. I don't want to stretch myself out too thin and become a liable due to my lack of familiarity, but I thank you for the opportunity. I'll be reading this as it picks back up.

You sure? We could probably make 6 work just as easy as 5...I mean, if our illustrious DM is cool with it.
