OOC: Introductions

[bluekieran2]

Yeah, I don't know what I'd do without that map! Just wish it specified law levels. The campaign in starting soon is MgT1 Secrets of the Ancients, so that'll start out near Regina also.

Travellermap.com will show law level. In fact, all of the UWP is detailed.

Do this:

1. find the system you want to examine (search for Regina for example)
2. click on the system to show the pop up with system details
3. click the little triangle next to the UWP to see all the details of the UWP summarized
4. click the x to close the pop up

Welcome Mark and that's a good character! I'm going to give John Lee Streetwise-1 based on our talk about what he was up to prior to being "retired", a background skill from his homeworld and some benefit rolls, too. Let's see...

(ATV-1, 30 KCr, Gun...your choice, Gun...your choice)

John Lee Petamore, 7A7865, 30, 3 terms, Scouts.
Mech-1, Electronics-1, SMG-1, Revolver-1, Air/Raft-3, ATV-1, Streetwise-1.
30KCr, Gunx2 (1 gun + raise on skill by 1 or 2 guns).
Notes: John Lee isn't a criminal, but he came close once too often for even the Scout Service to put up with.

Can you live with that, Mark?

Works for me! I'll update my sig later.

I'll go with Revolver-2.
I worked in the price a second ito his gear list.
Spent about KCr10 on gear, so that leaves him with KCr 20.

I didn't get a vacc suit. Should I? My thought was to get a rescue ball or two, but the ship should have those?

John will be digging into the ship's locker soon anyway.
Good to know what's available.

Eris, have you been getting my personal messages?

Hi all, I'm Terry Mixon. I've been roleplaying Traveller since the LBBs back in the late 70s, off and on, mostly in Eris's games. I've done a fair hand at a lot of games over the years.

I'm a former US Army noncommissioned officer and I worked at the Mission Control Center for NASA as an IT contractor for the flight controllers for 16 years. It's been almost exactly 4 years since I was laid off and became a full-time professional science fiction writer, though I got a few published before I was let go.

Now I make things up for a living and am lucky I remember to put pants on in the morning.

Looking forward to meeting you all, those I don't already know.

Great to have you aboard Terry!

So far I haven't forgotten to put my pants on in the morning, but I certainly know what you mean.

YEah welcome aboard! Don't eat the shrimp!

[Keven]

Green teeth & hallucinations.

[Tiglath]

Welcome indeed!

[Eris]

I've added TheFallenSon to our game list. He is interested in joining our game. I told him to post in here and start getting to know all of you...and the game.

My thought is that he can be a stranded spacer on Tionale looking for a ride off this stinking (literally) planet. He might be a disgruntled Delgado Trading Employee, a "reformed" pirate, or a Free Trader crewman that got left behind.

Welcome aboard TheFallenSon - looking forward to gaming with you!
