@Prudence Yeah, that's fine now. We don't even have to say that the helmet is fake just that it's not a full-bells-and-whistles deal like Grav described. It makes sense that he has a sort of piecemeal armor, too, since he's not an actual member of Mandalorian military(which I don't know that much about aside from what's seen in TCW, which is centuries after our time).

Anyway, I'm off to look at that intro post. Anyone have any questions or concerns?
Ahjan is a stealth oriented hunter, actually.

About the armor changes, give me just a moment...

*puts on co-GM reading glasses*
To put that Mando helmet in perspective: Storm Trooper standard issue only filters smoke. And those are supposed to be some boss soldiers.

The one Prudence pictures would definitely be heavy armor, too. Full plates with a textile undersuit. The one Boba wears in the OT is Medium. Mostly textile, with strategically placed plating.
And a bb-gun will not get confiscated at the airport.


Have you been to one recently?

@Prudence

This takes place very shortly before Phantom Menace. The Sith have been extinct for nearly a thousand years, and the Republic hasn't had an official army for I don't know how long. A pretty small part of his backstory, but one that needs fixing to mesh with the current period.

I also believe that Mandalorian armor is too good to start with. A ship is too much to have in the beginning too, and he's absurdly well armed. We're trying to start at the bottom here, but your character is already fully equipped, where's he going to go from there?
Archaeology + Jedi/Sith stuff sounds like fun, but we should save it. Ahjan will very likely have some Force connection(wish I'd mentioned it before, but it should be obvious anyway) and I don't want him to have a chance to explore it for a while.

The pirate one sounds pretty cool, actually. It would give us a chance to work together, especially if we end up fighting in/against privatized armies.
Definitely true, but don't take me too seriously until Grav chimes in.
Okay, so we should probably add stims and grapplers to our armory list, good additions, those.

@knighthawk
I don't know if an equipment limit is being imposed, but he is better equipped(or, more expensively in any case) than my character and the GM's.

@Gravislayer We should decide on that, to make sure everyone starts on equal footing, so to speak. That and whether vehicles are allowed. I just wanna make sure people have somewhere to go rather than starting with their ideal.

@Chev
What sort of armor is that that he wears? You can just say light/medium/heavy, or you can go into details, your call.
Well I'm sure no one would be too upset if you made any mistakes with it. You can always sort of wade in the shallow end, as it were, and stay in areas you know a lot about.

I myself lean very heavily on the wiki anytime I RP Star Wars.
We sure are!
I actually really like your guy's backstory, especial the fatherly sacrifice. Very dark, but very emotionally interesting.
