Character Discussion

Postby Zanaikin » Thu Dec 25, 2008 6:36 pm

so... character planning :D

party coordination isn't exactly necessary, at least not as much as role coordination in a completely different sense =P

thus far we have:

Drew - Knight Vindicator, thus a Diplomat & Commissar
Dave - Cross Knight, and will be in charge of dealing with Administrative details
Judson - Field Legion Commander, and therefore Military Commander of the expedition
Squall - A Chromian (formerly?) of the Asa Order, not sure what you role is yet =P
Marty - Absolutely no idea what your role will be yet =P

Squall :
read the rest of your histories, a few notes:
1. You'd be high enough ranking yourself to get a directly conversation with the head of the Asa order regarding the problems involved, can work that in if you want after talking to the elder. It'll be from there that she made you an independent operative, and see what they can do to help you. You should also probably note that they told you to stay aware from territories near the Jinnan, so if they found out about you there won't be diplomatic problems the order have to deal with...
2. You won't get a huge amount of help from the Kusanagi on spell research. Mostly because they're hardly the better spell researchers around (the Kusanagi are more techies than mages), and partly because they're not exactly interested in charity work. Be a different story if you can pay them in sufficient quantities =9

Updated with your input. He's not looking for spell developement, but for an invention or synthetic drink to help deal with his addiction.

I added my spell lists. Anyone should feel free to suggest additional spells.

comments:
1. Lawl, a middle easterner, I hope you know how to play a muslim, cause I don't understand their traditions myself...
2. Not bad of a name, although not very fitting to my theme. Imperial starships are all named after decisive, important, or famous historical battles (some of the names I have thus far are: Poltava, Konigratz, Navarino, Borodino, Brusilov, Berezina, Carrhae), the winning side needs to be one of the old Federation nations of course ;). So you can help out and pick a name for me, or I'll look up for one later =9
3. There are three main classification of independent operating Imperial starships : the first is the general purpose Star Cruiser (see the unit section), which make up the mainstay of the navy; the second is the Assault Cruiser, a ship designed for closer ranged combat and serve as a guard to star cruisers; the third is the Light Cruiser, which is the primary scout/survey vessel. Light Cruisers do carry REDEIN compliments, so I'm imagine you be on one of those. Survey expeditions are solo'd by Light Cruisers, since they're faster than their more combat-capable cousins and design to operate for longer w/o supplies.
4. I'll note that Imperial technology is about roughly one level behind that of Kingdom tech, although the Imperials do have magic to compensate some. REDEINs however are heavily outclassed by the Kingdom's Angel class interceptor, and usually any pilot who even manages a 1-to-1 ratio is impressive (1 fighter lost for every kill they manage). REDEIN stands for REmote Drone Escort INterceptor, as it implies, they're remote controlled from their mother starships and designed to provide fighter cover and maybe light attacks on frigate class vessels cause anything large can usually shrug it off with heavy armor/shields.
5. There are no Kingdom territories near Imperial space. As a matter of fact, Paraiette (the one mentioned in the pic) is the only Kingdom outpost even in Milky Way, and it is FAR from alliance space. The Triple Alliance (Terran Imperial being one of the members) did a lot of skirmishing in the area in the past decade after they discovered it about 8yrs ago in order to get a hang of the Kingdom's forces and defenses, but you wouldn't have participated in any climatic campaigns =9
6. While there are transfers between the Field Legion and the Star Legion, going straight from REDEINs to METAACs wouldn't make much sense. I'd suggest you grab at least some experience in the ground forces first, preferably in either operating Hussar Scouts or Langskip Missile Carriers. A reason for transfer might still be desirable...

Character and cohort names determined.

Character: "Jiyu Senshi" (has abandoned given name and now goes by "Jiyu Senshi" which translates to "Freedom Fighter")
Cohort: Daichi Horikosh ("Daichi" can translate to "Great Intellect" and Jiro Horikoshi was the designer of the Mitsubishi Zero)

You...did read that he changed his name to that as a grownup, right? He had a different name as a kid.


Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pron surfed, weak and weary,
Over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore',
While I clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour,
"'Tis not possible!", I muttered, "Give me back my free hardcore!
