Haha. I like it. I may need to "borrow" this for a game at some point. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Your Essence should be 1.2 instead of 1.6 though. Both of your pieces of 'ware have an ESS cost of 2, so Second-Hand Standard would make them 2.4 each.

You could save some 15 BP by being an Ork, but that might not fit with the fluff of the character.

I like that his native language is American. You could give him a specific dialect, possibly "Merican". I second his Alabama residency. |

Definitely more Mississippi flavored.
Because the only point of Mississippi is for people from Alabama to have someone to make fun of. |

Is Home Ground: Rural too broad? You may want to narrow that down a bit. Other than that I really like the flavor of the character.

Actually, having had to deal with folks from all around the USA, "American" actually is a heavy dialect of English. Surprisingly, I usually had the easiest times with those calls. But I was just lucky, my co-workers at the time would froth at the mouth and collapse under their desks in fear of the accent. The only issue I had was being mistaken for a Yankee. But, as that pissed me off by a very large degree that I couldn't even control myself long enough to hit the mute button before spouting hateful things about such a declaration, it became a non-issue very quickly. |

What does Yankee mean here? In Japan it seems to be synonymous with American or Englishman.
*here = USA. I took that for granted since the comment appeared to be stemming from the US anyway. |

Here in the Southern US "yankee" means someone from the Northern US.

I'm Canadian, BTW. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) In the Southern USA, it denotes the Northern US States, North-Eastern to be closer to the mark. It's a cultural thing. Apparently there was some little spat in the USA awhile ago that left some bad feelings. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

Strange... I wasn't aware of there ever being any sort of north/south division of the US, even along the 39th parallel. You Canadians and you crazy rumors. Next you're gonna say we have some kind of biff with terrorists. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grinbig.gif)

By modern standards, in American English a Yankee is someone who lives north of Virginia on or about the eastern seaboard. In the proper South (Georgia and the Carolinas) this is mostly just a regional identifier to indicate someone who may not be fond of sweet tea, but give them a few years and before you can say "how y'all doin'?" they'll come around.
In the deeper South of Mississippi and Alabama, it may have additional meaning, but we lost contact with those folks sometime in the 1920s and can't really say for certain. The term may also be used to refer to Floridians in the winter months. |

There is a reason why Florida isn't part of the CAS in 2072...
