from a land of opulence and way post ‘human’ possibility. Might know
people. Swap out a point each from your STR, STA, and AGIl and add it to
your PERS, INT, and (yes) Luck immediately. Why luck? You came

not really for you.)

|

old mega violence? You are some representation of the worst of
your homeworld’s criminal masses. Go nuts.
Kit: extensive criminal record, scar/tattoo/body mod
to indicate affiliation or prsion time, one small melee weapon
Detail: Be constantly out be all the open space and how lonely it feels.

5
|

Your ship defines your culture. It’s gods are your gods. It’s taboos
are your taboos
Kit: very broken-in vacuum suit; lots and lots and lots of pockets.
Detail: see shipboard tables
|
6
|
(wholly optional ) Medieval Screwhead - Typical regressed world;
probably agrarian and medieval at best. (Gongfarmer!)
Could be interesting if you’re a bot. Can easily be subbed for a standard
0 level DCC character.
Kit: roll once from the normal DCC 3-6 Equipment table

|
REQUIRES HERE Spacer profession subtables AND
Ship culture tables, poss. abbreviated)
Table 1-2 Profession d10

|
Basic Pleasure Model -
Regardless of Being, the character has been some manner of doxy,
escourt, courtesan, companion, or the like. The character may
have indentures or be a free person.
Kit: One outfit, barely there. Reputation. “Skills.” Detail: Training or Programming
|

|
Enviro technician -
Kit Single stained work safe garment, monotony. Details:
|
3
|
Escaped Slave -Your legal owner managed to lift ship without you. This
is your chance.
Kit: you start with nothing save a single change of (either last
issued or stolen) clothing that you are wearing right now.
Detail: Hide.
|
4
|
Experientially Free Backup Persona -
You are someone’s extra clone or backup; for whatever reason it was
decided you were no longer needed. Rather than properly recycling
you however they purged all but the most basic concepts and then
released you as a Free Person.
Detail: Roll again to determine the nature of the
person who you are a partial backup for.
Kit: 50d4 starting credits in compensatory currency, one random item
of the persona you are backing up, rude hexadecimal sintoo
somewhere on your body
|
5
|
Imperial Scum -
Kit false papers matching your SocMetrics; single non-military weapon Detail:Regardless of what you are or where you are from, you are part of the problem and some of the worst scum the empire has to offer. What
kind of crime are you after?
|
6
|
Legionnaire backpedaler - You signed and sealed sentient, and now your
ASS BELONGS TO THE IMPERIUM. But maybe you don’t want to have
your body reshaped to fit combat specifications….maybe you joined
because of a girl, or a droid, and they dumped you Mr. Rico, or maybe
you figured out that that the Xeno-Legions really are just full of
deviants who want to fuck aliens (e.g. each other). Whatever the
reason, you are desperately trying to get the dren out before the
Census Inquisitor comes knocking….stowaway on a starship, it works in
the holo-opera all the time!
Kit: the clothes on your back or equiv. Some local hard dosh,
fear & uncertainty.
Detail: Keep your head down. Everyone knows there’s a bounty paid for
info on Intention Traitors like you.

|
Prole -You exist in a safe and utterly placid existence, likely in a controlled
democracy or other political circumstance. Your vote and basic rights
are surrendered in exchange for the basics of a fundamental existence;
a cot, a low quality, high domicility datafeed, and the bare minimum of
fero, soya, or nutri-pak rations. You have no real skills at all but a lot
of free time. Also you cannot leave your work group without
surrendering rights to the above that most never do. You did.
Detail: You start with nothing, but dammit you are seeing the verse. (Escaped
Slaves cannot take this) Possibly as much as ⅙ the Imperial
population exists in such a state. |

|
Protected Environment worker -
Kit - one (light) environment suit of the appropriate type; a dire need for a bath, clean-can, liquid hose, or sonic shower.
Detail-
|
9
|
Imperial Serf -Rather akin to the Prole, above, but less comfortable.
Roughly 1/12 of the imperial population exists thus. You are the lowest
of the staggering numbers of the imperial underclass from one of any of
over 10,000 worlds. Urban, agricultural, whatever, you have existed to
serve others at their behest for the whole of your existence.
Kit: 5d12 Milicredits. One random item from table Random Starting Items
Detail: You aren’t really allowed to leave home, so get moving. |
10
|
Vent Rat - in another era you would be called an urchin; you live off the
record in a large habitat, arcology, or similar settlement
and live by your wits.
Kit - skinned knee, assorted valueless junk, single torn
jumpsuit that doesn't fit you any more.
Detail - Ye are filthy |
Table 1-3 Being d4

|
Assimilating Communal Entity- You are actually an advanced communal
life form made up of hundreds (or m0re) smaller, lesser forms. You are a
CIFAL or such; despite the reservation your kind cause, you are determined
to fit into the mainstream of imperial society.
Kit: Young or freshly rebooted you have little
Details: While technically being reduced to 0 hp does not kill you and you
may theoretically have a very long lifespan ahead of you, you can never
benefit from Rolling the Body results. When reduced to 0 hp, the
Communal entity disperses and the central governing intelligence goes
to “sleep” while a small number of component beings seek out means
to form a new body. When this new body is formed (be it of the same thing
or possibly made of a local but similar life form) it will have a new personality
and skill set, as part of it’s identity does arise from it’s host organisms.
In effect a new character.

|
Deadsleeve parasite - You are one of the XCX-66: small neural parasites
that inhabit the recently deceased. You have possibly hundreds of years of
memories if not more but must still start again. Roll again to determine
nature of new host body and starting Kit. Roll your Str, Sta, and Agil twice
and take the better of the two results to take the recent resleeve into
Consideration.
Kit: Processing chip under skin, whatever else the host starts with
Details: May or may not be experiencing a temporary bout of body
dysmorphia (role play it) as you adjust to the new host.
Also roll a d6. On a 1, take four off of your PERS as it increasingly
becomes clear that maybe your resleeve was not the …..freshest one
available. Some neuromuscular and other microbiological degradation
has occurred, and no matter what, that smell isn’t going away.
Also, if your meat suit (what those around you mistakenly call your body)
dies, make the roll the body check at +4. Success means *you* survived
just fine and are on the lookout for some fresh corpse action.
MV 5’ HP 1 App: gray-green ew slug
Note that any revived corpse must repeat the d6 roll as above unless
explicitly ‘freshest.’

Organic Humanoid - Most organics share common or similar pheromonal
And histamine chemistry to allow limited nonverbal communication, though under normal circumstances this will raise a few eyebrows.
Detail: descent from 50,000 years of genetic modification;
Specify hair, skin, eye colours, from any list of any colors.
Or
Iocaste’ - green skin, brown ‘hair’ prefers UV rich and moist
environments; nudists Photosynthetic

Created - Bots, Simulants, and Droids; all begin with infravision at 20’

(can pass for an organic humanoid)
AC 10 HD 1d4
