Alrighty, time for some feedback and critique! I've been liking everything I've been seeing so far, so this will be exciting- at least for me anyway.

[@Rapid Reader][hider=feedback]
It sort of looks like a different take on a typical 'new guy' character, and I have yet to have had a test pilot in any of my iterations of this RP, so that'll be exciting. I have no issue with the character concept thus far, and I like the direction you took with it. That being said, I am curious, when/where did she score the kills she currently holds? From her background, it seems she's spent her entire career thus far as a test pilot, and is getting her first taste of combat testing now. Did she get them while fleeing from the Garmr? If so that's a lot for a single pilot on their own. Just food for thought.

Regarding the mech- or what parts of it are completed, I like it as well. It kinda seems like its trying to combine the speed (and relative fragility) or a conventional aerospace fighter with the more maneuverable MAS. To be honest, the design philosophy seems very similar to Ingram's Sparrowhawk, but in the opposite direction in regards to speed and durability. All in all, excited to see how it all fits together.[/hider]


[@Yam I Am][hider=feedback]Ooh, an earthling, not a lot of those left. All in all, I like the character, and I have no real criticisms of her as far as direction goes. I like the whole drop-out turned aspiring-ace sort of path set for her. Of course, no party is complete without a raging alcoholic I suppose- doesn't matter if you're in fantasy-not-europeland or space. I think she'll fit in just fine. Incidentally, I know it wasn't intentional but I found it amusing that on the character sheet her gear was labelled as 'standard for Imperial service'- The Imperial Service is the shorthand name given to the Royal Family's secret service/bodyguard unit.

In regards to the mech, I'm actually quite happy you went and took one of the templated examples and built on it to make it your own through these moderate adjustments that still fit well into the established world. Overall everything looks pretty well thought out and well designed. Bravo![/hider]

[@Arkitekt][hider=feedback]As I understand it, Margarette is a character from my RP series that would eventually evolve into Falling Skies. A few things have changed as a result of the shifting universe- The power armor and barrier staves the old 101st legion used have been retconned as experimental prototypes as opposed to general issue, so its unlikely she'd have access to them. There is also still a mismatched mention of Coalition instead of UEE in her personal record. 

Overall, I do like the direction the character is headed in. I'd like the background to be expanded on a bit more- it may be a mystery to the characters, but as a player/GM I'd like to know a bit more about it. How and where she grew up would probably be important. With MAS technology being relatively recent, it'd be hard to see her growing up in UEE space and becoming a mercenary with how regulated such tech would be- more likely than not she'd probably have grown up in either the FEZ or a Neutral state. You mentioned in one comment that she'd been part of the 101st for 14 years, but that would make her 18. 18 would already be a bit too young to be a UEE pilot, when would she have had the time to be a successful mercenary? 

As far as how aggressive she can be- I'm still a little wary of the lack of concern for collateral damage, but willing to work with it. So long as it doesn't get to the point of disrupting other players(players, not characters) it should be fine.

As far as the mech goes, again, I also really like the direction its headed in: high-speed-low-drag super maneuverable cqc beast will never [i]not[/i] be cool. I will say the mech is a [i]bit[/i] over-tuned. The plasma edge combat blade would definitely fit into a 'primary' category, as opposed to a secondary- so one of those 3 will probably have to go. The shotgun also could use a once over- its labeled as a Hybrid weapon, but described as a plasma weapon, but fires like a grenade launcher? If you're looking for an example of a shotgun style weapon look at the Sparrowhawk's scattershot cannons. Overall, the mech looks good, just a bit too many primary weapons, drop one or convert the sword into a dagger/short blade[/hider]

With all these well written characters starting to finish up, I'll most likely be getting the OOC set up! I know we're waiting on a couple more, but we'll probably be shifting to the OOC by the end of the week
