While lasers exist they arn't at the level of being able to be useful at hand held level.

Coilguns are the most used type of military weapons, with gunpowder weapons being on hand in case of EMPs.

Robots and autonomous vehicles exist but they arn't at the level to do anything more than the most basic of manual label.

If you think it exists run it by me and I'll think about it.

Name: Axton "Fixer" Faulks

Age:37

Sex: Male

Background: Axton is man who appreciates the use of focused and directed force. He was brought to mars as a security consultant, his history on Earth making him an ideal person to evaluate and improve the securities of elect VIPs. After all he had evaded such measures in the past to "fix" thing for certain people. For five or so years things looked good. Cushy job, good pay, no one raising too much of a fuss. Then the rebellion came.

Things started deteriorating rapidly. Soon his job involved "proactive security" removing troublesome person to keep things safe. But every fix he made seemed to result in two more problem popping up. This work was hard, dirty and all around much akin to what he did on earth. Eventually, the people he worked for retreated back to Terra's more welcome embrace, leaving him behind bereft of much of his finances.

Since that unfortunate time He's worked as a fixer. Someone that makes problems go away, for a price. He dresses plainly, in outrider style. HIs face boasts a few scars, from his life on Earth and a run in with a chimera loose in the wastes. Of course he never go anywhere without armor under his duster, nor does he sojourn unarmed. His bowie knife and Revolver heavy Revolver shown for all to see. Besides this he has what's left of his security kit, a rifle, ammo, painkillers and a smattering of the nonstandard ammunition he has left. He cuts a rather unassuming figure, but some people still remember who he is, and what he has done.

Ah shit. 2d100 for actions.

Rolled 54, 74 = 128 (2d100)

Name: Captain Speed

Age: 27

Sex: M

Background: One of Earth's best hovercar racers, Ted Bigby Reynolds (known more widely as Captain Speed) has only one desire in life - to go fast and look cool doing it. This allowed him to quickly rise up through the ranks of the Hovercar Racing Circuit. Since the HRC is much more dangerous than a standard Nascar race, Captain Speed has quite a bit more exercise and better reflexes than your standard racer. In addition, because he owns his hovercar (the famous Silver Peregrine) he has become quite adept at repairing it. Now, he has come to Elysium, land of milk and honey in Mars and home of the Mars Hovercar Racing Circuit, looking to carve his name on this planet as well - in tire tracks.

2. In his downtime, Captain Speed decides to do a few laps around the practice course to get his bearings right and get used to Mars's gravity. The Red Planet had some obvious differences from Earth and not knowing how to deal with them could cost him the race. (Action: Improve driving skill) (+Driving III) (+Supersonic)

Name: Solomon Kamara

Age: 29

Sex: Male

Background: In his early teens Solomon was taken in under the command of a brutal warlord, and while in this bad company he participated in horrible acts of violence against military men as well as civilians. Usually while under the influence of some drug.

This, however, changed when a girl that Solomon had fallen in love with was claimed by the warlord himself, which lead to Solomon's desertion to the government and aid in the eventual death and disbandment of the warlord and his militia. It had been to late though, the girl was dead and Solomon was left heartbroken.

Having gone straight edge after his desertion and with several years as a soldier under his belt, Solomon is more than capable. He has made his way to Mars armed with his deadly Gauss rifle and trusty Desert Eagle XIX .50AE.

He lives for the fight, and he fights for prestige.

2: Before that, however, she would need to get something to defend herself with. From what she can remember, Eoko brought along a broom with her to the town of Landing, yet it was thrown out by the crew a few hours ago. Surely, it wouldn't have gotten far, and would still be around here somewhere.

If I'm going to allow this the events of your backstory would have to be much more recent than 'teens', which would mean you would be on the planet longer than there have been colonies on mars. Hop on the irc linked below if you want to discuss it with me.

1. Not exactly the best situation to be in… Only 200 credits, too. A shame. Seems that I won't be in the situation I had hoped for, but I've made it through worse. I suppose the first step is to find some lodging, preferably low cost. Even if I'm only here for a day, a base of operations is a useful thing.

2. I'll also need some men. Goons of a sort.Perhaps they can aide me in more ways than one. I'm sure there's plenty of muscle around this god forsaken rock.

>>38401

1. Your manager checks the schedule on his smart phone then looks at you. "Good news is your on the sky track, bad news is that it is only a pre-season race. Only sponsors are going to get a look at what you can do." The sky track is closer to a roller coaster than a real race track, exciting to watch but far from the hardest track in the city.

2. You do a few laps around the practice track. You find you get more air than back on earth, almost went off the track once. Driving IV 1/16

Inventory: +Coil-Pistol (60 bullets), Knife

Skills: +Rifles II, Pistols II, Hand to Hand I

You start in Landing

>>38404

1. Apparently almost no one is looking to hire someone who looks like they haven't worked a physical job in their life. You do find a shipping company in search of a desk worker. You would be in charge of sorting paper work and printing shipping manifests. +2 credits per turn.

2. If you accept the job there is a company bunk house but otherwise there is a hotel that costs 5 credits a night to stay. At least its cheap.

>>38416

1. After getting denied the job at the cafe as a hostess you get directed to the hotel. Seems they are looking for maids to clean the rooms. +1 credits per turn and +Maid uniform if accepted.

2. Oh hey, your broom. +Broom

>>38468

1. Plenty of people looking for a job, but most want an actual pay or knowing what the job is first. You do find some dumb bastar… you mean simple… cough good employee material who follows you because you said you would feed him. At least he looks strong. +Follower: Simple Tim

2. Locally the main political player, singular, is the mayor. Says he's been around since the town was founded and 'like hell your taking this town I built myself from me.' He is surprisingly well liked by the populace and can support a well armed security force.

>>38506

1&2. You fall back on old habits and head to a shady bar in town, but apparently no one here knows the lingo or just no one wants that kind of job done. That is until a weird old man in a lab coat approaches you. (you have met >>38507)

>>38507

1. Cheapest housing around seems to be a beat up old shack of a hotel for 3 credits a night. No plumbing and no locks on the doors.

2. Much fewer 'goons' than you thought. Most people are looking for honest work with steady income, not the possibility of not getting payed one day. You do find a guy in bar who you think is looking for work. (You have met >>38506)

2. After that there's nothing else to do but sign up for the race and do my best! My fans are watching and I won't let them down! Also if I lose too badly I'll probably be stuck living in a hovercar down by the river for a while…(Roll is for how well I do) (+Driving III) (+Supersonic)
