Corporate Defiance (OOC Thread) -- CLOSED

[Dire Lemming]

I call not it! I really dont think that would fit my character. I vote for Rhun; it's always nice to have friends in high places. anyways, I'm working on getting a skills setup and equipment and all that jazz. If i can't get the PDF's from sid, i might have to just cry and order the blasted things over the internet. I'd really rather try them before I buy them, but....

such is life.

as far as equipment goes, how does this sound? I need pricing, tho....

big trenchcoat w/ bandolier
Light repeating blaster rifle
4 explosive grenades
4 concussion (i.e. non-explosive) grenades
couple vibroknives hidden in my trenchcoat/boot

how much $$$ does that leave me?

I ordered my book on the internet.

You should probably just get a few less grenades. Any situation that requires the use of than many grenades is probably not one we're going to survive.

Azaar, so should I remove the power packs/energy cells from my inventory list and give myself their cost in credits?

Leadership isn't one of Vincent's strong suits but he'll boss people around if they seem like they don't know what they're doing.

 

[Azaar]

Yeah, Dire Lemming, go ahead and get your refund.

Pricing: okay!

What about for Rylee 'Cid' Citris?

Plus I think I can my character can be the 'brains' of the bunch. I might re-arrange some of her skills, and perhaps put some into profession so that she can run 'realistic' front repair shop.

I sent you an email Penance, and if this works try going to the Website

As you can see, you're over budget. Blank datacards come in packs of ten, and their weight is a bit inconsistant but whatever. There's no entry for belt pouches, you can just have one. After all we're all going to be given belts with pouches for free. I personally don't think it makes much sense to have to pay for credit chips but that's the DM's call. You also might want to consider some means of self defense.

Bloodweaver1: Okay... couple of things on Cid.

1) Remember that there are Vitality/Wound points, not just "hit points" like in D&D. 25 VP, 10 WP.

2) In one place, you say Scoundrel 5. In another place, you say you're level 6. Just a heads' up.

3) Skills: You have 96 skill points available, 88 spent. 8 more to spend.

4) Equipment -- okay, this one will be vaguely lengthy... or not, as Dire Lemming illustrated above. Thanks, DL.

Past that, your combat jumpsuit will run 1,500 credits. Heavy blaster will run 750 credits. Thermal detonators... hehe, 2,000 credits apiece, and Sector won't be handing those out unless it's absolutely necessary. As for the explosives, they'll be handed out at the start of a mission, depending on the mission parameters and what-not.

As you can see, buying all mastercraft isn't exactly the way to go, not with only 6,500 credits. What isn't listed above is what you'll typically receive at the start of a mission by Sector. The equipment that's mastercraft -- if you decide to drop back to normal equipment, cut the price in half.

What about for Rylee 'Cid' Citris?

LOL...I didn't realize we would have two Cids/Cyds in the group. Cydarius Rath and Rylee Citris. Of course, that could lead to fun antics when someone yells out for Cid/Cyd!

 

[Dire Lemming]

Where's Yuffie? Us optional characters gotta stick together... Even though I can't stand her.

 

[Azaar]

The frightening thing about this is that, in the campaign my DM ran 10 years ago in this setting, several of the FF7 characters were there -- Aeris, Cloud, Tifa, Barrett and a couple of others. I'm not gonna be using them, though.

And don't tempt me to name my Tech Specialist support NPC for you guys Yuffie.

 

[Rhun]

Cydarius is coming along, Azaar...I'm hoping to have him ready to email to you either tonight or tomorrow. Just wanted to give you a status.
