Here is my character

Originally posted by ivanhoe my char was used as a slave for cleaning the ship and stuff, but when he sucked up he became a member of the crew so they taught him to help on raids and stuff

I thought he kept trying to escape? And you didn't answer all the questions I had above about him killing them all and stuff.

If you look at how Daiymo and Tokiwong did up their characters, that's what I'm looking for. CowBoy BeBop is going to rely heavily on character roleplaying mixed in with alot of adventure so I need some indepth well thought out concepts. These questions are only intended to help you think about your character further and flesh him out into 3D

Originally posted by Tokiwong Not sure yet, figure they needed a pilot with a racer's heart, he got mixed up in the wrong struggle, and off they go

Well since this fits your concept you're going to get Spike's little fightership. He obviously doesn't need it anymore.




I will come up with ships stats...I will be using the Star Wars rpg books to help me figure out how to adapt some of their ship stats to CowBoy BeBop.

Get ready for some dogfights!

That is cool, I will be working up some minor supporting cast for Chase, like his ex-wife, and maybe some people he used to know from the circuit

I know... I know... i am horrible at creating backgrounds for my characters. If anyone wants to help me with some ideas i would appreciate it alot.

I don't mind if people do this, in fact, I encourage it alot. It gives me a place to start off from.

I case you didn't realize this. The setting occurs AFTER Session 26 (I assume that Spike died) and I haven't seen the movie and don't know when its supposed to take place.

Curran (where does that name come from btw?I don't recognize the ethnicity of it.), I do expect that you come up with a good concept. You have a beginning there, just need to spend some time thinking more about what you want him to be like. Here are some questions that might help you.

Who is he?
Who were his parents?
What are his favorite things?
How did he grow up?
Who was he close to?
What is his mission in life?
What drives him to do the things he does?
Who does he care about the most? Allegiances?
Why would he go into bounty hunting?
What is he good at?
How did he get good at it?
Who was his mentor?
etc etc....

Okay, I'm going to put up the barebones of my concept... I need to flesh it out more but I just want to get comments and see if it fits.

Bobcat Siesta Ryder
Born to a group of new-age hippies in a commune on Mars, Bobcat grew up in an environment of freedom and expression. Her parents had somehow managed to escape their original poor lot on Earth and impressed upon her how good she had life.

She rebelled against her parents and instead of becoming a social activist/environmentalist/something socially conscious, she ran away. She liked the romantic image of being a grifter on the road, with only a bit of cash and her guitar for company.

After a number of odd jobs, Bobby realized that she had a knack for electronics and mechanics and focused her efforts on that.

Umm.... that's all I've got so far. Does this fit with the setting?

Curran is scottish in origin, it's acually a last name. You should ask Six.

Totally off topic but I'm curious

lol um yeah Six might know but its your name Why did your parents give you that name for a first name then if its a last name? Are you of scottish origin?

Chase's Supporting Cast

Selena "Ghost" Takeda: Haley is Chase's ex-wife, a Race Queen by trade, the two dated for nearly three years before they tied the knot, which lasted only about 8 months before she suspected and then found out Chase was cheating on her. Though the two have not spoken in years, she really loved Chase, and it hurts that he was so casual with the break-up, she is bitter but is trying to move on.

Now she has taken on the moniker of Ghost and works for a two-bit operation doing street races, and posing as a model. She is making decent money, but misses the wild times of the proffessional circuit.

The Monk: Working on race cars, and fast vehicles, Chase came into contact with some strange people, but good people. Monk is one of them, never knew his real name, but the man had a way with machines, and a way with knowledge, just like he always knew something that Chase wanted to hear. Lives in the Belt now, but he has traveled the Solar System, and now has retired to a life of mining, though he still keeps the old Mustang spit polish clean. The Monk and Chase go way back, and that is good enough for Chase.
