David Pickering/Lieutenant JG Venor Pertham

Q1. How important do you want your character to be in the campaign? Note that I use this to determine how much focus to give your character in an episode.

060. I'm an up-and-coming officer, capable of commanding the occassional mission or having an episode focused on me. Sort of like Chekov without the fake Ruskie accent.

Q2. How often do you want your character's subplots to be in the campaign? These would be enemies, rivals, family, romances, hobbies, etc. Note that these things are analogous to the B plots in a Star Trek episode.

060. If I don't have a subplot every other adventure I'll wither and die, or I'll join Donald and play solitaire.

Q3. Where do you see your character being three years (18 episodes) from now? This is in terms of his/her Starfleet career.

060. Certainly I should have been promoted at least once by then.

Q4. How much action do you want to see in the typical episode, or in general throughout any given season?

040. About the level of the Next Generation tv show. There are other ways to challenge the characters besides violence.

Q5. My biggest complaint about the GM is...

060. He doesn't seem to know the rules. He's constantly looking up rules or making it up as he goes. Especially annoying when he changes the same rule week after week. (The Wong Conundrum).
Q6. My fellow away team members...

040. Have skills that complement mine. Which is good since I don't want to learn those boring skills.

Q7. My leadership ability...

060. Is not that bad. I only lost a couple of redshirts in the last mission. Any successful mission where I survive is a good mission in my book.

Q8. Non-violent solutions to a problem...

060. Are an awful lot of work. But that's what we're paid to do.

Q9. Telepaths...

080. Are too dangerous to trust implicitly. Power corrupts.

Q10. Romulans...

080. Are the kind of race that your mother warned you about.

Comments:
 
Q3. I want to be a right hand man, like Subatai to Genghis.

Q5. Just need to keep rolling.
  • Don't question yourself, or get worried when people mess around.
  • I will continue to think of myself as a scientist and learn those skills, but act by temperament as a security goon.
  • I'd like to be a right hand man, like somewhere between Han and Chewie to Luke
  • Suggestion: Have an aptitue be an extra wild die. So people with an aptitude have double chance of rolling up. A +1 to total is too strong. A +1 to die is too weak.
