It is real and please send your Character sheet to me and BCTheEntity when it's ready.

We look forward to it!

For Queen and Country

Yeah, what happened to the plot post for Wednesday?

Pretty much everything I've read and wrote has been through the filer "will this be good, bad or goodbad when the inevitable heresy happen?".

>guerilla tactics

That's pretty much the Desert Son's schtick too. Battling against either legion would not be fun.

Diversity is always good, as is hacking.

I like your avatar and signature, by the by, one of the best Fables short stories.

Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic: Jedi Templar (ACCEPTING)

So I'm making my rodian padawan but which image works better do you think?

Rodians

or

I like them both but the first picture has a slightly goofy look to it, due to be much older while the second one looks a little too bad ass for a padawan. I'm also not 100% that purple lightsabers were in common use in the Old Republic era.

EDIT: Also, does anyone want to take on an apprentice? I can always make him my character's apprentice but it might be more fun to have him be learning from someone else.

I think this makes me number 5! Tell me if it looks okay.

Old Ben

Gender:
Male.

Age:
Older than you, kid.

Role:
Pointman, urban tracker, bargainer.

Appearance:

Skills/Abilities:
Old Ben has spent almost his entire life as a mercenary of one sort or another. He's fought for rebel causes and then for the establishment crushing them. He's protected the interests of big business before helping rob them with a band of crooks. And if there's biome that old Ben has never fought in, they must have invented it yesterday. Throughout most of his career, Ben has fulfilled the role of pointman, the first member of any team to enter the killzone and the one with the lowest life expectancy. So as good as Ben is with his rifle, handgun and knife, his main talent is the one he's practised most; he's extremely good at not dying. He's really gotten into the habit of being a live, in fact, and doesn't intend to start dying at his time of life. That's always been something other people did.

Ben's great experience comes in useful in all sorts of ways; he knows which models of guns are reliable, who to buy them from, which jobs will be busts and which ones will pay out more. He can usually tell when someone's trying to play him, cheat him or sell him supplies at an inflated price. Ben's prior dealings with most traders mean that if they see him coming, they immeadiately begin packing the best stuff they have into a bag, put on a big smile and hope he'll pay without telling the other customers what things should really cost in the stall. Ben's final talent is in tracking, but not out in the bush. He has friends in low places, has Ben, and he can almost always call upon them for favours or information. Anyone running away from him better make sure that no one and nothing sees them do it, because the walls have ears and mouths. Mouths that talk to Old Ben.

Personality:
Like many people of a more senior age, Ben doesn't take kindly to fools or time wasters. He's seen enough of them in his life and doesn't particularly feel the need to talk to any more, especially not now his luck is probably running dry. So those that don't get to the point or don't know what the point is get a short shrift from Ben. Those who know their mind and aren't afraid to speak it, however, should get along just fine with him. When something is up, you can be sure Ben will tell you, whether you like it or not. Maybe you're not cooking the stew quite right, maybe you missed a spot while cleaning your rifle, he'll let you know. And he expects the same from others, as long as the criticism is constructive. Ben believes in telling people when they've gone wrong and hopes others will do the same for him.

He can be a little grumpy, a little cantankerous but only when he's not on a job. Without a purpose, Ben feels aimless and frustrated. With something to focus on, he tends to be gruffly cheerful if a little pushy. While on a job, Ben constantly pushes the other members of the team to make sure they're on alert and doing all they can to make sure the job succeeds, even if he's not leading the team. Success leads to life, he sometimes says, and he doesn't intend to die just yet.

EDIT: Changed how the name looks.

As was discussed earlier, a lot of 40ks major races don't exist yet. Tyranids haven't arrived, Tau are still in the stone age, Necrons haven't woken up. There are still Orks and Eldar and the main 30k timeline created a few alien races, one of which BCTheEntity has confirmed we'll use. BC said that someone will eventually encounter the Interex so read about them but don't use them.

As Hank suggested, you can always invent your own races (I did) and if they're too insane then we'll tell you when you submit your character sheet.

@Ubermensch
Excellent. Will you make some sort of crack about hunting monsters or starting into the abyss too long in your sheet? Because it would seem appropriate.
