Pathfinder

GEARS - Mecha Sci-fi with Anthro characters. RP in a detailed, story-driven world.

This looks interesting.

Starfire

Krull

Name: Krull

Appearance

Stands just below eight feet tall, the average of his species.

Race: Goralian

Gender: Male

Age: 103 years

Background: Krull began life humbly, as all Goralians do, clawing his way up the birthing pits. From their he only did what came naturally, war. You see, as a whole the Goralian race is a savage, war obsessed race who put the "Honorable War" above all things. And so he went, collecting trophies and siring strong children until the day "The Sky Fell" nearly fifty years ago. When the revelation came that there were other things they could kill, the Goralian people gladly lept at the chance to add new skulls to the trophy racks. Unfortunately that meant attacking anyone who landed on the planet. When someone was finally able to crack the language barrier an agreement was struck up fairly quickly, come onto the ships and fight our wars. And fight they did, HE did. Krull was one of the first to accept the offer and since then he has traveled through the stars, bouncing between mercenary companies and random buyers. It's been only recently that he has joined the Starfire Company.

Personality: Brutal, savage, and oddly noble, Krull is a paragon of Goralian values. He will never stab one in the back, or shoot you in the back for that matter as that is both cowardly and dishonorable. Battle is his only calling and meat his preferred currency, literally. Krull holds currency in low standing, instead he prefers the barter system back on Goral. At the end of the day, Krull wants 4 to 5 things. Battle, trophies, meat, and woman....sometimes men.

Gear:
-Scavenged Armor and Gnarl wraps, Traditional Goralian armor. Minimal plating with focus on the torso, groin, and the knees down. Strong enough to block small arms fire entirely but falls short to higher caliber weapons.
-Hammerburst, primitive by most civilizations standards the Hammerburst is nonetheless effective at bringing individuals down because of the considerable force behind the slugs which have been known to knock people off their feet regardless of armor.
-Cleaver, a multipurpose tool, the Goralian cleaver is meant to slice through meat, bone, and some armors.

Personal Ship: N/A

I'll have some stuff for the Goralian race sometime tomorrow, I've tired over here.

@Guess Who
If you are still taking I'd like to give this a go. I've had a race in the making that would be fun for this...at least it should.

[Closed] In Tyra's Name

Jack

Name: J-12, Jack
Age: 4
Gender: Uses Male pronouns

Appearance: Jack's hologram form is exactly like his hard case unit save for the fact that it is see through, orange, and about six inches tall. In reality he is just data and has no form but you could say is "true" form is a titanium box deep within the ship.

Species: Artificial Intelligence

Rank/Specialism: First Officer
Skills: Jack is a military AI meaning he came jam packed with skills to assist him in his role as First Officer. Not only is he an adept pilot but he also fills the role of electrician, mechanic, and soldier when the need arises. However he really shines in cyber warfare. Flooding a ships system with viruses and malware, venting oxygen, data mining, and shutting down shields are his specialties.

Personality: Jack is an oddity compared to his other siblings in the military. While he has the basic necessities of a military AI like punctuality and complete dedication to his job but somewhere down the line he began to feel more than them. He has a dry, sardonic humor and doesn't appreciate when people waste his time. Jack has also gotten into giving people nicknames, usually unflattering ones until he decides he likes you. Finally, Jack will take any excuse he can to be inside the H.C.U. As far as life goes, humans in particular, people tend to take for granted things like touch, taste, and all the senses in general.

Bio: There isn't too much to tell in the life of Jack, at least not yet. In the grand scheme of things, Jack is just a newborn. To create a real AI takes time, around three years under normal conditions. In his creation Jack was drip fed mountains of data, molding him into something very similar to a military AI but somewhere fundamentally he was not and he has always known it. It made him isolated in a way as he couldn't be as serious as the other military AIs nor could he care as much as the more domestic AIs. The odd man out, so to speak.

More than anything this isolation framed his personality, giving him a slight mean streak against humans and AI both. This mean streak persisted strongly until he was placed onto the ship, the only place that felt like he belonged. While brief his time has brought the better out of him, causing the mean spirited AI to soften up a bit as he found his home.

Other:
-Jack has no ill feelings towards aliens and in fact views them on the same plane as long as they do their part.
-Detests the term "computer" and being bossed around like a simple VI, Jack may be made out of data but he is alive and his life is just as valid as anyone else's.

Welp, I'm done with my CS.

Have some skeleton stuff down but could I get an idea of what the AI are in this setting before I get to putting meat on the bones?

Scifi Space Combat/Exploration/Thing(?) Inspired by the likes of FTL and Sunrider

Hmm, hadn't thought about that but now that you mention it I am intrigued.
