I think the Pech is an Intruder. A Sleuth and/or an Advocate would be helpful, but two Intruders could work. Make the character you want to play. Smiley

I wouldn't worry too much about duplication of skills, my hope is that you'll be mostly all off in different directions and pursuing different leads/objectives.

I've also only got a vague idea of what you'll be doing - so I'll try to tailor things to the team's abilities (not that makign you do things you're unskilled at isn't entertaining once in a while).

Oooh.  I've heard mean things about what you can do with Advocates.  And with elven glamour... Grin

An Advocate could also make a great excuse for the party. They brought the team together and started the firm.

For some reason I read that as a 'great excuse for a party' and was contemplating the 'Wild Revelry' feat.

Since we've already agreed to join, I have to assume we've seen each other, though not neccesarily breifed on each others BG. So at First Glance:


Alex: (scruffy, anarchist, peircings)

White looks over Alex and tries not to roll his eyes a bit. A trained officer has to make certain assumptions about people, and be prepared to be wrong. Profiling is a necceasary evil, and is short for assumptions based on appearance.
A rebel, for the sake of rebellling. White's always had some degree of conformity, enlisting in the military, joining the police, but rather than begrudging the rebel, he has a certain admiration for some of them.
He's policed enough peaceful protests, that he sees that many of these guys mean well, though their execution usually leaves much to be desired.
Hopefully this is one of the more reasonable types.


Charlie:

(would you like a connection, a previous awareness of each other from the past...on opposite sides of the fence?)


(if not;)
Always look out for the small ones. White had a freind in his enlisted days that was just barely over the height requirement. He learned early on that such people compensate. Society forces them to be meaner, tougher, and smoother.
It's important to never underestimate anyone. Charlie would be the one to watch.


Caoimhe:
White's not sure what to make of this guy at first. He's obviously got some kind of expereince, but it's hard to tell what. Plus, their just being something odd about him White just can't put his finger on. The tattoos don't look like gang symbols. Religious significance. He doesn't really look like the type to get them becuase their 'cool.'
White waits for some sign. Who is this guy?

Add to that..my physical.

White's not used to being out of uniform for long.His 5'11' medium frame shifts uncomfortably in street clothes, and he looks obviuosly out of sorts. He's never been terrific at undercover, becuase his demeanor and clean cut appearance just scream cop.
Maybe while he's got some time off, he'll let himself go a bit, but old habits die hard, and White finds himself shaving in the morning without even realizing he's doing it.

Well, might as well toss in, I can always edit when Anderson and Jim get finished.

Alex
An uirisg and an Owl at that... Touchy and likely troubled. Some form of caster, judging by the trappings he carries. The bow is unusual, not to mention impractical. Not surprising from an Owl magician, though. Hopefully he knows how to use it.

Charlie
Pech. Every Pech he'd ever known had either been a thief, a con man, or a sybarite. Wonder which one Charlie is.

Simon
A human.  At this rate all we need is a Dwarf and it'll be something out of a bad fantasy novel. He looks out of place here, too clean, too neat, too wide eyed. He must have just had his eyes opened. Police or military. Hopefully he won't crack.

And himself:

Caoimhe is dressed unassumingly: jeans, a grey turtleneck, and a worn brownish leather coat. He keeps his back from the door and windows and an elfin smile twists the corner of his lips seems to take everything around him in. Despite his smile and pleasant - if somewhat distant - demeanor, an aura, like barely controlled violence, seems to surround him like a dark cloak.

You know that advocate is a favored class for Dwarves...

You get a Cal I vehicle with your lifestyle.
As for picks, increase your Possessions by 1 to 3. This rating gives you 2 Cal I picks and 2 Cal II picks (Stockpile Possessions uses a different table then the core system). Gear Prep will let you boost the caliber of one of those picks so you get to choose between 1/I, 3/II or 2/I, 1/II, 1/III. Gear categories don't matter using Stockpile, and figure Common Items as normal.
