@Pirouette, Thanks!

[Grec]

Sorry for the small post, just wasn't expecting to be thrown in with other players that quickly. Wasn't sure if I should just write us going straight to Nipton or wait for the other guys post.

@Grec

I recommend the latter.

What to do what to do. Kill stuff for the legion? Or kill stuff for the NCR? The world may never know.

I had my character visit the Malpais Legate' camp - since I assume, that the while the info might have been up everywhere, about the Legion needing ghouls elminated. I wasn't sure, if it would include a location, why or how many.

As such I decided to have my char visit the Legate' camp and get the mission handed in person - namely cause I want to start building my rapport and relationship with the Legion.

That okay?

[Letter Bee]

@NecroKnight, Yes, it's okay, I love it.

[NecroKnight]

@Letter Bee

She has visited and taken mission from these guys in person - likely five or six times (other times its through intermediaries), so she should be a 'regular' or mostly known compared to some other mercs in the Camp.

[Letter Bee]

@NecroKnight, All right. Anyway, good writing.

[NecroKnight]

@Letter Bee

Thank you =3.

Red Eye

Name: Megan

Nickname: Red Eye

Age: 25

Looks:


Personality:
She was silent and observant and just follows Darius around and agrees to whatever decision he makes. She was free to make her decisions and Darius always respects that. She was a little harsh and cold because she do her things as she weighs what matters most.

Faction: Independent

S.P.E.C.I.A.L:

• Strength: 5
• Perception: 8
• Endurance: 7
• Charisma: 9
• Intelligence: 4

• Luck: 4

Backstory:
Megan is a resigned sniper from NCR. Father was a ranger, mother was a doctor. They're both still alive in Camp McCarran last time she checked; which was a month ago. She resigned as a sniper because she really didn't want the NCR, just the training. Plus she wanted to explore the Mojave and make more money.

Megan wanted to be a sniper because snipers are far from enemy shooters and all she must do was support them from her firing range. She left the NCR when

President Kimball died.

Darius

Name: Darius

Age: 32

Looks:


Personality:
A kind of person who took jobs, clean or dirty. if he doesn't want the actions of his employer, he won't take the job and have a good word with him. When tricked, he would kill the boss if he can and loot the whole place. He doesn't care about boundaries and superiority, and if either people with high or low ranks mess with him, he will give the trouble back, supported by Megan. He kills slavers and free the slaves if there was any, and once he was an enemy of a faction, he will be an enemy of a faction. Even with that, he was a kind and considerate man when out of the heat, would try to help those who can't survive without resistance in their own will. He was not under anybody's law and would do anything he want.. Anyways, he was an only child and his father was stabbed by a raider and his mother was dead by unknown. Probably kidnapped by the raiders that killed his father.

Sometimes scouting, giving a hand for a handful of caps, then moving to another place and repeat. He met Megan in Gun Runners, a sniper soloist that was hired for the same job with him and other two guys he didn't get the name, the job was pretty simple,

I'm so bad at backstories sorry.

map if you guys don't have any

[Letter Bee]

@WingsOfBronze, No.

[WingsOfBronze]

@Letter Bee

wow.

what's the matter? Lack of backstory?(pretty sure it was)
The characters themselves?

[Pirouette]

@WingsOfBronze

Hi! I'm Co-GM so I'll try to help you out!

Your hunch was correct and that a lack of backstory and personality did leave your Characters a bit bare. Not a problem, though. There are plenty of places to try and expand. Like for example, in Megan's story it technically wouldn't be possible for her to just leave the NCR after completing boot camp. That's not how a military like the NCR works. However if Megan decided to skip her duty after training, it would brand her a deserter and a criminal, her parents end up dragged through the dirt as an extension and who knows, maybe Megan's parents are executed for their daughter's crimes. Details like that adds a lot of spice to a character which later makes them more fun to interact with. So think about some things like that to add to Megan. Ask the who, what, where, and why questions at every major point in their lives. Who are they with, what are they doing, where at? Why? So on and so forth.

With Darius, same thing. Why does he have nothing? Was he robbed? Decided he wanted a simpler life? Up to you, really. I'm sure you can think of some extra bits for you charas.

Oh and you mistakenly added an extra Tagged skill to both characters, which is a no-no unless under specific circumstances listed in the rules (ie taking the Tag! perk or taking a weakness skill)

I hope this helps!

@Pirouette

Thanks! It really does.

I'm just bad at making character backstories and characters lol.

[Letter Bee]

@Pirouette, thanks.

@WingsOfBronze

I don't think of it like that. Everyone has to start somewhere so you'll get better!

[Grec]

If the other two characters don't respond I'm gonna just head to Nipton on my own

[dereken]

I'll have my response up tonight, keep your pants on.

[DepressedSoviet]

I'll have mine up tomorrow morning.

[Lauder]

I'll also get mine up tomorrow
