Hello. I can make my character this weekend. Is there still time or you will start ASAP? I will do a Vargr with Milirary and some Science or Mechanic terms. Maybe I will use a third term with pilot skill? Have not rolled anything yet.
Hi everyone. Can't seem to settle down at the keyboard this week - never any time spare. I see the characters are mostly done - remind me, did I need to use the online chargen tool and resubmit, or am I using one of the manual options I already did? 'Cause we seem to need a Pilot, and the hand-rolled are that, but I can't get the website to give me one. Got an Astrogator, and a Vacc Suit 4, and an Artist/Rifleman, and a lot of damaged washouts today....
Enerii
It looks like he has Astrogation-0 which means that he is competent in it, though not very experienced so he could potentially be a navigator for the ship; however it looks like Maiokus has Astrogation-1 which would make him more suitable especially since he also has Pilot-1. Enerii's mechanic-1 skill is the closest to an engineer that the ship has and I may just assign you Engineer (Maneuver Drive)-1 as well which would allow you to be the ships engineer giving you Engineer-0 in all the other Engineering specialties. Or you can gain a skill through connections with other characters.

We barely started so you are free to join us if you like. The characters have yet to leave the Regina Orbital Facility. My only concern would be that if you can't get to it until this weekend what will your posting consistency look like? I have a forty-eight hour rule generally in which if you haven't posted something within forty eight hours of your last post then I will push the story forward and make decisions for your character that I cannot alway guarantee you will like or agree with. If you are only able to post on weekends, that may become an issue.

If you have the Mongoose version of Traveller you can certainly roll up your character manually. If you used the original character generator that was provided, which was actually for Megatraveller, then you would need to reroll using the Mongoose character generator.

Once all the connections have been made I will go through and review the skills and assign any skills that may be necessary. So far it looks like the character have a decent spread of skills though. I did not see anyone with Engineer though which is why I mentioned the possibility of assigning this to Enerii because I think it would be a necessary skill for the campaign.

Maiokus - looking through your character I think you are missing some skills - each time you make your Advancement roll you earn a roll on a skill table, as well as any skill awarded for attaining a certain rank, and you don't seem to have those.
Ah Bindoner that's right. I have the advancement skills but I didn't do the extra rolls. Will when I get a chance today. Good catch!
