Random question but if we're going to have people with multiple characters and/or potential npcs, should they be separate posts or lumped in one central post? Personally I'm more of the former just so the CS post tab can be used as a running total of all characters (pc & npc) but also it keeps things uniform, imo.

I usually sell them for cheap.

I also haven't used Fanatical. (And only recently heard of it on Reddit. Where some people were complaining about how they've been raising their prices.) How's their customer service? If you've used them before.

@SleepingSilence

I just ask about the trading cards because I like to complete the badges and level up my profile. Some people don't care about that stuff or aren't interested in selling them for 2 cents or whatever, so I ask around to see if they don't want them and if not I take them off their hands if they're willing to give them away to me.

I haven't had much issue with Fanatical in the past. There were moments where it didn't want to let my order through, but it resolved pretty easily. Just so you're aware though, they are based in the UK, so you do get charged a few cents or so for currency conversion.

Topping out at five foot six and weighing just slightly less than other females her age largely a result of being stuck with a thin, lithe frame, Tanner is undoubtedly average. She doesn't have any identifying blemishes, leaving her skin undeniably clear. Her hair and eyes are almost the same color spot-on, both being shades of hazel-like light brown. Even her clothing is often standardized, comprised of cheap, inexpensive yet sturdy basic garb commonly seen in the outer districts. Truly, were it not for Tanner's insistence to keep her hair cut almost boyishly, she could probably blend into a crowd of people and essentially disappear to the untrained eye. Personality It isn't unusual for Tanner to be seen "detached" from the world at hand. Driven by the need to find the woman she has been searching for, Tanner has made a habit of only interacting with people who likely have information that could help her. Otherwise, Tanner is a girl of few words, as if she was giving someone the cold shoulder. Even to the few "companions" she has, her reactions are robotic, deadpan and unemotional. Many potential friends have left disgusted because of her attitude, although Tanner seems clueless as to why others might want nothing to do with her. Nonetheless, it doesn't take Tanner long to get over a missed connection—the only thing that truly matters is finding that woman. Biography A native of Wall Maria's Quinta District, Tanner had been expected to take over the family bookstore from her mercantile parents. Had. Unbeknownst to Tanner, her family had been shrouded in great mystery that she seemed destined to unravel. House walls dotted with family portraits plus one unknown individual. Old letters to a woman Tanner struggled to remember. Dodged questions and half-truths from her parents. Such clues and links as these ate at Tanner, gnawing away at her thoughts and soul. Who was this woman? Why could she not recall her name? What relation did she have to Tanner? She needed to know, even if her parents didn't want her to. Dotting down what little information she had into an old journal, Tanner set out to find the truth about the woman that constantly racked her thoughts. Whilst most leads amounted to nothing, her investigative inquires being returned by the locals with the same avoidance her parents had, the real clue had been in front of Tanner all along. The green cloak in the portrait; the mention of the Survey Corps in the letters her parents stashed away. Clearly, whoever this woman was, she had something to do with the Scouts. Despite being closer to her goal, however, Tanner had ran into a road block. While it was obvious that the woman had, or was, a Scout, she struggled to find someone in the Scouting Legion that had known her, forcing Tanner to rethink her next action. Deliberating the issue for several days, it wasn't long before Tanner realized what she had to do—if she wanted to find this woman, she would have to follow in her footsteps, joining the Survey Corps. Of course, Tanner knew full well that her parents would object. The Scouts always came back heavily bloodied and battered, and there had been talk of disbandment, so who in their right mind would let their "only" child join the military, even more so if they were seeking to join the Scouts, rather than the Military Police or even the Garrison? One surely had to be insane to agree to such a thing. And so, under the cover of an early morning, Tanner turned her back on the family bookstore, seeking a recruiter to fulfill the destiny she had set herself on.

I know I've hopped in late, @Kuro, but if I've got anything wrong - do you prefer photos over art? - feel free to correct me

@Force and Fury

I don't have a strict preference myself but I do like to keep things uniform. Since everyone else seems to be going for IRL FCs, I'd suggest to do the same for your sheet if possible.

No worries. So the gap between the pre-trainee breach and the training itself is two years in this setting, so basically just temporarily take 2 years off the character's age for the intro and then add them back on when training begins. The training arc won't be too long, mostly the drill instructor intro, a little social gatherings to form some early bonds, and then one big training exercise a month or so ahead, before we get into the actual meat of the story

@LetMeDoStuff

So, if I'm understanding this correctly from what you've told me so far here and elsewhere:

-2 years from breach to training
-5 years for training

Or is it 3 years for training to round out to a total of 5 years? I'm kind of confused on where we're going with this.
