Species/Faction/Homeworld

LP 5

AI: -2

ALEPH Faction Career: -1

Career Phase 3 (Hazard)

Career Phase 4 (Continuation)

Birth Host:

Aspect (2 LP) +Agility -Coordination

   She's not going to be sniping people... shooting in the back, maybe, but that's an easier shot, right?

ALEPH (automatic from purchasing Aspect)

   Not the one I would have picked, but let's see where this goes

• Effect: Roll on adolescent event table
• Adolescent event: 2 - Roll on ALEPH adolescent event table

   Ok, this should be flavorful at least.

• ALEPH adolescent event: 12 - Midnight visit from ALEPH/Sympathetic Ear

   Weeeell that will tie in with the childhood event...

• Talent: Counselor (psychology) - I already have that - can I go up the chain and take Alien Psychlogy (Human)?

Career 1:

   Going to roll on the faction career table... don't want to bungle an initial hazard roll (even at D1) and get stuck unemployed

13 - Steel Phalanx

   Well that was certainly unexpected.  Must have really needed to bulk up the numbers for a campaign?

Age increase: 5+1 = 6 years

   ...I'm not sure how old she is to start?

Career 2

Hazard Career - Chandra Special Ops

   True to its blurb, I've been able to find exactly F-All about what Chandra has actually done within the story of the setting, which is fine because by definition she won't remember it, but still...  

D1 due to matching AI education (Steel Phalanx, notably, did NOT match) - Stealth 20,2 Success

   uh oh...

• Tables: 5(C), 1(ALEPH), 5(B)
• 20(!), 5, 12
• 3 more of these, a 'rounding error' in her favor, save someone from a terrible accident
• Rounding error: 1 + 0(4) + 2 + 2 + 1 + 0(4) + 0(5) + E - gain 7 assets
• Under investigation, hazard stealth: 18, 15 1 success

   Cleared by the skin of her teeth... This was probably a thank you from the other faction agent she saved.

• Tables: 2 (ALEPH), 5 (B), 5 (B)
• Rolls: 11, 10,2
• Work takes you far afield (add 1d6 languages and a trait)

• D2 hazard (stealth) to keep from being fired: 11,3 succeed with an extra success because Focus, clearly she's a valuable asset worth keep-
