[Other] Alien RPG: Stranded

[Rockerboy]

I'll put something down, I've been a fan of Alien/Aliens for a long while!

EDWARD 5 Name: Edward 5 Career: Medic Model: Edward-series synthetic Background: Edward 5, commonly known simply as Edward, is a newer model of Weyland-Yutani Corp self-learning Android, who has been specialized for human care and treatment. Edward has been programmed with a large repository of human biological and anatomical data, while also having learning centers for continued development and ongoing education - through personal study or updates - for his assigned professional task. To further assist in data collection, all Edward 5's have been fitted with creative and emotional capabilities, with the goal of strengthening Android/patient relations and effectiveness. This particular model of Edward was assigned to the Umbra Station several months prior, to be available for rapid deployment in the space region as a result of nearby medical emergencies - whether local, military or other. This form of emergency response medical Android is purely experimental, a test to determine viability of factory-level unit output, and Edward serves as one of several hundred in circulation. Edward's primary function is to preserve and/or protect human life, through medical, physiological or psychological means; and all the while correlating and updating his learning centers on experiences and situations he encounters...

I'll have time tomorrow to detail the station, and hopefully remove the UNDER CONSTRUCTION notice.

The first post now has a section on Umbra Station with faces and places.

Welcome Rockerboy, and everyone whom I've forgotten to greet.

The advertisement says no preset buddies. I assume that mea6 no connections in any way. So I'll have to go with my guy was shot by his best friend and a traitor.

You'll have to come up with something for your friend.

It also seems your not the only Paxton on station here.

[Cheshire]

I changed my characters name, no biggie. I will have to come up with some type of backstory.

Medical Android is a neat idea. I like this group so far. Should be interesting.

[BlackDragon0]

4 each different in their own way .

[epelj1]

Interested in putting together a Forward Observer...

[Cheshire]

If we only Want one I can swap mine out and do a Comtech marine, designated marksman, a pilot of some kind

[Nyx89]

Are you still taking players @junction? I've always wanted to play Alien RPG. I haven't before.

I hadn't looked at other apps yet, sorry, didn't mean to step on your toes! Let me dig into other roles and see what fits what I have in mind!

Edit: Different idea than originally had, but a pilot might be fun!
@junction, given the game description, are pilots needed in this particular game? Are androids allowed?

[junction]

@Cheshire
I'll change Paxton gladly, I used the online random name generator and didn't check it with PC names. Would you prefer to keep Marcus for your PC, or set it back to Paxton?

@epelj1
Androids are allowed, just like pilots, but the latter won't be able to use their main skill within the station.

[Cheshire]

@Junction. I will keep Marcus. I used the name generator the first time.

[BlackDragon0]

Sounds like the generator ain't random at all it likes using Paxton

[junction]

More like it has a very limited amount of names to choose from.

By the way, we have our game folder, I even made the ooc thread, but I forgot to invite you guys.

So, everyone's welcome and please chime in.

The ad was for 3-5 players, and we can accomodate one more, so Nyx89 and epelj1, hop on board and join the merry band of lab rats in the giant maze.
