Roleplay in SPACE! Space! TWO! Two!

[Mik_Hael]

Check my math behind me if you would, and by the way, how much for that mechanic from earlier?

[Marvelous Miscreant]

No offense Zale, but this seems like a whole lot of effort for not a whole lot of payoff.

[Zaleramancer]

It probably is..

[The Junkyard Cat]

Hey um for making my character what would you need to know? Also I'm thinking about making him a robot. An awesome robot with a good humor.

[Zaleramancer]

Robots are fun.

What kind?

[The Junkyard Cat]

Self-aware, intelligent, Flexible, fast, Durable, Good-sense of humor, Maybe an accent(just maybe), Uses guns, Emp-shields, Knows how to repair itself, Can still operate with head removed. I'll add more when I think of it

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Cool.

[Zaleramancer]

Software or Hardware?

[Celadon's Penultimate]

I'd think hardware, otherwise, he's pretty vulnerable to reprogramming.

Then again, that could be added to his disadvantages to free up more points.

[The Junkyard Cat]

Yesh I agree with hardware.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

[The Junkyard Cat]

Would there be anything else that is needed to know what I want for my robot character.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

I'm guessing a lot.

Though, unfortunately, I'm not a GURPS expert, so you'll have to wait for Zale.

[Zaleramancer]

Which means you're stuck with one body.

If he were software, you could move between various robotic bodies/computers.

[The Junkyard Cat]

Hmm so like back ups... Cause I'm trying to decide to be like church(RedvsBlue series software) or like Cain (Binary Domain hardware). This is gonna be a hard choice between the stuff. Um I think I'll like to know the benefits of both and downfalls please.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Hardware means that it's stuck. If you get electrocuted or short-circuited or reprogrammed, then you're done. No coming back. Your body can be repaired, but your mind has to start from scratch.

Software means the tech containing your knowledge/experience/personality can be removed. Your personality and other program settings can be copied to numerous CDs, and you can basically live forever, by maintaining tune-ups to your robotic form, getting upgrades as needed, etc. Even if your body gets destroyed, you can be revived if you have a personality/memory/experience CD reserved.

[The Junkyard Cat]

Software sounds fun then. I'll go with that for now.

[The Junkyard Cat]

So besides that what else is there that is needed to know about my character

[Zaleramancer]

What sort of thing does he do?

[The Junkyard Cat]

well he is a great courier, but sturdy enough to do security work. Great infiltrator as well and very stealthy.
