Hello all,
One of my players wants to play an elven J-Pop star. I'm using the Karma character creation rules (with the Charisma-based free contact points and the free knowledge skills based on Logic), and I'm trying to see how it could be done. The character is intended for a Ghost Cartel campaign, so it has to be viable (but not optimized!) for the settings involved in that campaign. I'm wondering: -If it's doable at all. How successful of a pop star can we have using character creation rules, including the 250000 nuyens limit? -If it's not doable, what sort of acceptable break from the rules/houserule/custom quality would you suggest? How would you, as a GM, handle such a character concept without just saying "no, you can't do that"? -Such a character would mostly be a face. What sort of abilities should it have for both flavor and efficiency? Thanks a lot, Dumpshockers... |
