Alrighty. Start here.

How many points do we work with?

Usdrothek · « **Reply #2 on:** October 06, 2010, 04:58:43 PM »

Or do I just pitch you a concept? Someone living in this society?

CroakerDogBoy · « **Reply #3 on:** October 06, 2010, 05:14:46 PM »

Right now just pitch me a concept. Then I will decide points.

CroakerDogBoy · « **Reply #4 on:** October 06, 2010, 06:46:33 PM »

Since it is a 'modern' game I will probably go with 50 point characters. Up to 40 points of disadvantages and 5 points of quirks.

Could I be a tradesman of somesort? Electriction? Carpenter?

Just some average Joe.

CroakerDogBoy · « **Reply #6 on:** October 08, 2010, 02:25:41 PM »

Sure. There is much more likelyhood of that job existing.

Where did you have in mind for him to come from and all that?

Usdrothek · « **Reply #7 on:** October 08, 2010, 02:37:34 PM »

DId you have a region in mind or anywhere?

CroakerDogBoy · « **Reply #8 on:** October 08, 2010, 02:39:07 PM »

Well, I was tending towards the U.S. But I have the general concept in mind. Once I see what you guys are going to come up with I can better tailor it to suit the players.

Usdrothek · « **Reply #9 on:** October 08, 2010, 02:46:21 PM »

Well I don't really know anywhere in the US better than any other, so I'd either go for the area you want or where the rest of the players go.

CroakerDogBoy · « **Reply #10 on:** October 08, 2010, 02:48:17 PM »

Ok, lets start simple.

Urban or Rural?

Usdrothek · « **Reply #11 on:** October 08, 2010, 02:51:04 PM »

Rural. Rural there is close enough to rural here (with cosmetic differences).

CroakerDogBoy · « **Reply #12 on:** October 08, 2010, 02:53:42 PM »

(I have never heard Trees defined as cosmetic differences.

)

Ok. Rural it is. And just because it begins there does not mean it ends there.

Alright. That's enough for me to work on. Now you have to decide where he is from, and start putting him together.

Usdrothek · « **Reply #13 on:** October 08, 2010, 03:02:45 PM »

(No point getting stuck on technicalities

)

No wukkas, I'll get to pondering. What about somewhere like Arizona?

CroakerDogBoy · « **Reply #14 on:** October 08, 2010, 03:44:13 PM »

Sure. That would be closer to the rural I think you see every day.

Usdrothek · « **Reply #15 on:** October 08, 2010, 03:45:12 PM »

Thats what I figure. close-ish anyway.

CroakerDogBoy · « **Reply #16 on:** October 08, 2010, 03:51:34 PM »

So he will be a carpenter from Arizona. So I guess get to figuring. Probably need some help with his background story where the differences from it and modern day are.

Usdrothek · « **Reply #17 on:** October 08, 2010, 03:57:22 PM »

I'll think on a back story.

Anything a carpenter wouldn't do in the alternate timeline?

I'm thinking he first fixes houses, or commercial work, schools, smaller buildings etc.

Not much gas around, so he might have to have bicyle, maybe with a small trailer to haul his tools. around from job to job.

CroakerDogBoy · « **Reply #18 on:** October 08, 2010, 04:00:45 PM »

So you see him as a private contractor, or someone who travels from job site to job site working for a construction company?

Usdrothek · « **Reply #19 on:** October 08, 2010, 04:06:54 PM »

I think I would see him as a contractor.

What has the steadier work? Private is good if work are plentiful...but in this timeline the economy sounds a little strained. Then again he could be falling on hard times because he is in just this situation.
