Character Description

Rebba Lee is a charismatic woman who managed to carvea career out for herself in Medicine, with an eye to specialising in Surgery. however, as she turned thirty she began to wonder if there wasn't more to life, and to the astonishment (and in soem cases, envy) of her friends and colleagues, se landed a good job as a medical officer on a commercial space trading venture, the Vezina Merchant Line. Now she travels space, looking for something a little bit more interesting than the inside of a consultant's chambers.

Commentary

I've never been a big fan of Traveller: TNE. this is partially because I didn't like what TNE did to the classic Traveller setting, and partially because the rules were such a departure from what had gone before in terms of Traveller rules. However, delving into character creation for this game was a pleasant suprise. althogh the rules are badly laid out and a bit confusing at times, the actual end result was satisfying, playable, and had some nice ideas (for example, playes as a group being able to contribute to a ship, and contacts for each term). This has actally made me think harder about running a game of Traveller: TNE.
