Corporate Defiance (OOC Thread) -- CLOSED

[Rhun]

I know penance mentioned something about Bounty Hunter, and if he means going Prestige Class (assuming we play d20), he would probably want a few Scoundrel levels, as two of the required skills for class entry are not on the Soldier's skill list.

If I go with a Soldier, I would be more inclined to move toward the Elite Trooper prestige class. I'd be willing to multi-class, or go another direction if that fit best into the group. I'm not too picky.

Since Azaar has said no space travel (at least not right away), a smuggler and ship techie might not be best suited for the game...Azaar would have to expand more on that, though.

It sounds interesting, but it looks like you've already got enough combat characters. So I'd like to know whether non-combat characters will serve any purpose besides helping the combatants kill more things better in your game. I know it may seem an odd question but in my experience that is the most common role for them.

 

[Azaar]

They could -- however, I'm not going to complain if there are four combat-type characters. I'd actually considered NPCing a Tech Specialist to serve as support for the group, in fact -- sorta like the operators on the hovercrafts in the Matrix movies. Gives me a good reason to use the techie speak I've learned over the years of playing engineers/medics/scientists on various Transformer MUSHes.

Perhaps what surprises me most is that there isn't anyone biting at a potential sneak/roguish type of character. Sector is, by nature, more a sneaky infiltrator-type of organization. Straight combat will have it's place, but there will be situations where infiltration will be the primary mission as well. I'm hoping to be able to do a variety of different things.

 

[Rhun]

Well, if we are starting at 3rd or 4th level, I could multiclass Soldier with either Scout or Fringer, and that would allow me to pick up Hide and Move Silently...that would help with the sneakiness.


After doing a little browsing, I'm definitely leaning toward Fringer/Soldier. Seems like a good combination.

I would like to play a former corsec officer Rylan Sarn, now out of the force because of bad conduct who was asked to come here undercover (by his old bosses) in search of a smuggler (your own choice of names, backgrounds), My character agreed as a way of getting back into the force only to get trapped when the space faring days ended in the sector. Now all he can think about is doing whatever it takes to get off this rock and back to corellia, if there has been news he has strong leanings towards the rebellion and cannot wait to join the fight against the empire. He sees his part in the attempt to bring down the government of darkness as a way of participating in the war. And while he does not (at this time) have any force sensativity his uncle was one of the jedi who died defending the jedi temple, and his cousin Isan Sarn has shown the potential for the force.


An edit


While reading Correscant and the Core Worlds
I read that CorSec was dissolved by the Diktat for a force that was more loyal to him...

So instead of being released for bad conduct, I will have been released because of a political upheaval, and then asked by my former bosses (now loyal to the rebels) to come to this place to look for evidence of the Diktats henchmen here that had helped in during his coop. And then I got stuck here

And for classes,

I would say either a Noble or Soldier

I suppose it could be interesting to play a sneaky type. The last sneaky type I played was a halfling, and by default was constantly harassed and forced to crawl into small holes. The only thing he ever got out of one of those holes that wasn't an injury was a cursed ring of featherfall that lowered his Dex to around 14-15. But if it might be alot of fun playing a stealthy character that doesn't always get shoved into holes. Also that game was spent mostly running around the wilderness of northern Faerun so a densely populated area like a star wars city would be very different.

I guess a Scoundrel or Scoundrel/Noble. I'll have to think about it before I can get into detail though.

Sounds like we've got a party! (you're sure you couldn't handle 5 characters, azaar?)

*gives puppy eyes*

the only problem is, liek I said, I don't have the d20 books any more. Is there, perhaps, an SRD I could get ahold of? Anyway, until I look up some d20 SW books, could someone send me some instructions for making a character?

Ha, this is why I never get rid of old books! Hell, I've still got all my 1st and 2nd edition D&D books, my old Star Frontiers stuff, Battletech, etc. etc. Good thing I've got an office with lots of bookshelves at home!

 

[penance]

yeah, well, you probably
a) have more cash
b) haven;t moved as often as I have

but such is life. I might have to go pick up some SW d20 stuff tho, it's been on the back of my mind for a while. Anyways, so Azaar, mighty DM, will you be our mighty DM?

 

[Azaar]

Because I'm lazy, I've edited my opening post to make this a bone fide recruiting thread. I will post some basic info on Darkness and Sector for you all to acclimate yourselves with later this afternoon, and you all will have first dibs as far as spots go. I'm leery about going much past four, but I may go for five PCs if there's enough demand for it.

As I said earlier, I'll likely NPC a Tech Specialist for you all (unless one of you really wants to do the tech specialist role), so don't worry about that particular niche unless you're set on it, in which case I'll let whoever wants it to go for it: I certainly won't complain.
