Character Concepts

This thread is for players to brainstorm character concepts among each other, decide on the group's role/theme, work out any background ties/experiences, etc. If your concept involves something the other players probably shouldn't know, post the character's known details here and message me privately with anything else. Also, bear in mind that while beginning play as a party is very convenient, it is not required. Some of the most enjoyable groups form during the course of early friendships or adventures.

Re: Character Concepts

  I was going to play as a civilized Vorox, so is there anyone who is going as a noble, mainly from Li Halan. If we don't have anyone playing as a Noble, and that rarely happens, I will make him an engineer or a Charioteer.

Re: Character Concepts

i was thinking something along the lines of a scoutly type. Either of the brother battle or the legions. You know the type the one which goes ahead and makes sure there is no traps laid out and no ambushes set.

Re: Character Concepts

I'm still trying to make up my mind about a character concept.  If exalt7212 is going for a civilized vorox, it probably would be a good idea for there to be a Li Halan around.  If no one else wants to go that route, I'd be happy to. [GM, would the Li Halan have had holdings on Stigmata when the symbiots arrived?  Would a displaced noble fighting to reclaim his home work?]  If I do go with the noble, it'd be great if someone played an orthodox priest to be a confessor.  Any takers?

Re: Character Concepts

Thought about it a bit more, and I think I will go with the Li Halan noble.  I'm currently leaning towards a younger, questing type with academic tendencies.  He'd be landless, and hoping that by helping win the day on Stigmata, he'll earn himself a fife there.  I'm thinking that his field of study would be aliens, which would make sense with having a Vorox in his entourage (assuming you're up for that, Exalt7212), and would also give him a niche on Stigmata.  Like I mentioned earlier if anyone wants to play an orthodox priest in his entourage, that'd be awesome.  If not, no worries, I can take some friends points in the worldly benefits phase, and spend them on a confessor.

Re: Character Concepts

Yeah I would Be up for that. A Vorox Bodyguard for your Character. Perhaps from when he was a little younger or something?

Re: Character Concepts

Yeah, that sounds perfect.  Perhaps my character, being landless, was bounced around from fife to fife when he was young, and spent some time on Ungavorox, where his interest in xeno-biology was sparked, and where he met your character?  How do you see your character's background?  Any ideas on why he's now hanging out with humans instead of other Vorox?
