Posted: Sun Jan 17, 2010 6:12 pmI just rolled a totally random character using the Scavenger Setting as a drop-out security guy. Basically Aladdin.
Battle 10
Meat 7
Shift 6
Soul 6
Wit 6 (Was originally 9 and meat and Shift were originally 5)
Figured that I could take Acrobatics as my free Life Skill. Couldn't find a Music Skill, but I figured it would be Soul Wit like Thespian.
Acrobatics 12
Music 12
Law 12
History 12
Biology 12
Physical 12
Chemical 12
Computer Know 12 (13 with Psychotheatrics)

Pilot Grav (5xWit)+d10 (35)
Light Firing (5xWit)+d10 (32)
Heavy Firing (5xWit)+d10 (40)
Streetfighting (5xWit)+d10 (40)
Streetwise (5xWit)+d10 (33)
Mechasys Know (2xWit)+d10 (22) (24 with Psychotheatrics)
Mechasys Systems (2xWit)+d10 (13) (14 with Psychotheatrics)
Psychotheatrics
49. Well Known
59. Technically-Minded, +10% Tech Skills Starting
79. Lucky, Can flip a coin and call. If correct, something bad happening to the character won't happen.

Posted: Mon Jan 18, 2010 3:42 amThis sounds cool, I'm going to roll a character too. Post him here. just for kicks 
I used Sci Fi random name gen
Sergi Kova
Battle 7
Meat 8
Shift 5 (was 8 took 3 off)
Soul 5 (was 2 added 3)
wit 5
Seems like a toughie but thickie. I rolled three 10's on my first shot but knew you wouldn't believe me so re-rolled!
If I could, I would take some 2 away from meat and add to wit.

Posted: Mon Jan 18, 2010 3:46 pmThat's why I used Invisible Castle. On my own this morning I made a bunch of random characters, and the eleventh rolled 9 7 8 9 8 and then got Genus 3+ and a Soul upgrade and a Streetwise bonus.
