[@Traps]  First of all:

[i]*breathes in*[/i] HOLY SHIT THATS A LOT OF EFFORT. 

Now that it's off my chest, what kind of characters do you allow? Smug ass, rich landlord with questionable moral compass and a desire to smack people on the head? Kleptomaniac slum rat whose only aspiration in life is to create the best collection of unusueful gadgets he steals off of people? And how could these two possibly end up in a crew?

Would you allow for something like a super secret invention of a clockwork android disguised as a human and wanting to learn how to feel?

tl;dr - Can I make any odd whack job as per steampunk traditions, or do I need to be at least semi realistic seeing how this is advanced?
