"Another new place, a bunch of new faces, another new chance to reinvent myself. Hopefully I won't blow it quite so quickly because I am running out of places that I can afford to get to where I am not already in trouble..."

Shraneal had grown up in the slums of a middling city on Garda-Vilis. Few opportunities for the kids to get a decent education and even fewer to get a job earning enough credits to be worth the bother. Well, no legal jobs, anyway. Things looked better for a while in Shraneal's late teens when he made waves as a self-important "revolutionary". More accurately, he arose to a position of leadership in a gang with a "steal from them that gots and redistribute the goodies to them that don't" credo. The powers that be didn't mind the thefts as much as the pseudo-political justifications and rabble rousing. The police could have probably nailed him on the thefts but overstepped and charged him with "crimes against the state"that made his a cause celebre ... and got a GOOD lawyer to defend him pro bono. Got off scott free but had to leave the planet.

Things had not been nearly as exciting since then. HE always manager to screw things up just when they were going well and then had to skedaddle and start over. This last time had been BAD. Details are a bit hazy but the broken bones and empty bank account were crystal clear. The bones had healed. The bank account now nurtured the smallest of nest eggs... and life presented another chance to start over...


Shraneal is average height, a little chubby. Medium skin, brown hair, brown eyes. A few too many tattoos and scars kept him from being completely nondescript... and marked him as a low class punk who was not welcome in 'the finer establishments' when there were any around...

The notes are spot on Quizzical, great.
You need to specify:

Athletics from the list:
1.Co-ordination (Climbing, juggling & throwing)
2.Endurance (Long distance running, hiking)
3.Strength (weightlifting)

Gun combat from the list:
1.Slug pistol
2.Slug rifle
3.Shotgun
4.Energy pistol
5.Energy rifle

Also if there's any weapons, armour or equipment you'd like and think you can afford then here's the place to ask. The salvage ship will have a ship's locker so minor items and bits of work gear (for astrogation or vacc suit EVA) will be available to crew.

Cool. You can't afford an energy pistol (2000 credits) but is there anything else that you'd like other than the clothes you stand up in?

Shraneal doesn't seem like the type to have much stuff ... or to keep it for long if he acquired it...

However, a set of lock picking tools and a switchblade seem in character...

Consider it done. The lock picking tools are your standard (tl10) piece of kit - in practice you really need to learn some engineering (electronics) to use them properly but that provides a nice character goal to be getting along with.
The blade is no problem at all.

I thought your character was supposed to be a female?

I was thinking on making her younger, maybe somewhere around 27?

Making her younger? Hmmmm........ not sure that's possible Arrow. The character gen system in Traveller is all about number of 4 year terms served and the skills acquired in those terms.

Still, 34 isn't so old and in the Traveller Universe would hardly notice as older than 27.
