Character Things

Just a few notes for filling out the sheets:

For Characteristics, just go ahead and add up all the modifiers from creation and put them in one number unless said modifier can only be used in certain situations. For instance, if you've simply been given a flat +3 to Strength, just raise the number by 3. Makes it a bit easier on my end.

For Homeworld/Career events, when putting them on your sheet you don't have to place them as a Trait or Talent or anything: just put down the modifications and use the flavor text that went with them as a possible inspiration for background information. You don't have to have gained/lost whatever it was through the method listed.

For Wound points, you should probably reroll with a 5-sided dice online or something, since the only problem we had earlier was lack of 5-sided dice.

The first row of boxes beside Skills means that you're actually skilled in them; you'd fill it in for all the advanced ones and then only for the basic ones you actually have as full skills and not just basic ones, if that makes sense.

The memento stuff can probably go in notes, along with any cybernetics you've picked up.


NOTE-- I'm not really sure if it'd be possible to link them up to this site so people can see them, and have them remain interactive. Maybe upload a new one every so often? Any help on this, oh Web-design people?

EDIT-- Maybe you can just have the sheet floating around on your computer, and just post up on the blog the "fluffier" stuff? Like, a brief overview of the character. And then maybe send ME the sheets, and then we can both update our versions as necessary? This seems like it might be easiest...

Useful Things

A fillable pdf character sheet: Go

A few handy charts and tables in one place: Go also

Edit:

One more thing-- how will this work, anyway? Do you guys make all the rolls or do you just tell me what you want to do and then I roll it and post the results? The first way would let you guys play with your own dice, but the second would be much easier as far as applying modifiers and stuff is concerned, let alone making sure people don't cheat (not that I'm saying you're not trustworthy or anything)...

Thoughts?

nadine: I don't have dice...maybe we can use online dice?  I'm kind of more in favor of you rolling for us in general, though, just because it would take less time...if we rolled ourselves then there would just be "more things to do," i.e. you tell us what to do, we roll and tell you what the roll is, and then do something...
