Streetwise is stuff like knowing the right handshakes to not get you beat up, and knowing how a drug deal goes down, and maybe what beat cops tend to run. All the little things you pick up from living in the ghetto.

Mills posted:I made changes! That looks totally perfect, and I've already got a bunch of ideas in my head for your character. I hope you don't get too offended if I don't know the day-to-day workings of investment banking. By the way, when I played Werewolf, my character was pretty similar to yours.

John P. Rothschild A banker at Advance Bank, John enjoys driving to work in his Porsche, while laughing at the hordes of people who have to travel by train or bus. When not savouring his daily ritual of a grass-fed steak with an expensive bottle of red for lunch, John trades interest rate and FX derivatives. John is a card carrying Liberal member, and he voted [1] for Elizabeth Grace in the electorate in which he resides. Controversial, as John hates all women. Things are looking up for John, but little does he know, Advance Bank is looking to merge with St. George Bank, and who knows how that will work out for him...

Ignem posted:Awww what Xylo you big jerk why aren't I on the list Sorry, you didn't make a character. I was going to wait longer, but after 6 hours, I had like 12 great characters, with only 8 slots. You can type up a character if you want, and when someone inevitably drops out, I'll come back and look at potential replacements.

Character I was planning was a struggling academic at QUT, always fighting with the bureaucracy for research funding that they were reluctant to give. He hasn't got much, lives in a lovely apartment in the city and has a run down bomb of a car. But doesn't particularly care, as despite the difficulties in his work, he loves it. Even if at times it leaves him reviving his old drinking problem. Formerly a massive hippy, he's since turned away from that, looking to cynicism instead. He doesn't have much of a life outside of work, he has a few close friends, but he moved to Brisbane as a last resort, not able to find a position anywhere else, and had to leave his social circle behind. As a result will often work late into the night, on research he thinks is far more important than whatever little else he could be doing with his time. P.S Someone should drop out straight away. I was at Uni/work all day and only just got home then.

Yeah, but heck if I know which one at this point. I'll need to do some "in-depth research" on that matter or you can pick whatever works for you. Selena played by Gina Carano.

I highly doubt I'll ever need to be more specific than "some slavic language." If I throw a bad guy in and they're speaking Czech, I'm not going to bust your balls and say you can't understand because you only speak Romanian.

Awesome. I've got a bunch of ideas for your character. Lizard Combatant posted:Yeah his strength will be low. Can I trade some initial points for an capacity bonus? You will not need to trade for that, I have something in mind to help you there, if your character is going the way I think he is going.

Here we go: http://sheetgen.dalines.net/sheet/33205 Linguistics point is for Hindi. Overall, Raj has a high focus on mental and knowledge stuff, much less focus on social stuff. But AnimalKen is high cause he likes to watch Captain Planet and loves nature and animals.  Physical stats are middling cause his parents did sign him up for karate and stuff, but he's still way more of a nerd.

Basically some backgrounds reflect your human life and backstory stuff, and some reflect your werewolf stuff, so rather than have everyone load up on human stuff exclusively, I'll just handle it. Mills obviously would have maxed out the Resources background, but others may find some supernatural stuff in there.

I was just checking the JJJ hottest 100 for 1995 to get an idea for what music a uni student might have been listening to and that was clearly a fabulous year for Australian music. No fewer than 3 TISM hits in the lineup.  http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/hottest100/archive/archive.htm?year=1995&alltime=0

Lizard Combatant posted:Oh whoops, how's that now? You get 10 freebie points to spend in addition to everything else. 5 points buys you an Attribute, 2 points buys you an ability, 1 point buys you a willpower. You have 7/5/3 attributes, so you're fine there. For abilities, you have 15/9/8, instead of 13/9/5, which means you bought 5 abilities for 10 points, and then you have 7 willpower instead of the normal 4, which means you spent 3 there. You're 3 points over, so whether you want to take away 2 skills and get an extra willpower, or drop a willpower and a skill, or all 3 willpower is up to you.
