Forums » Freight Forum » CDM - Character Development Missions

SO. I came up with this idea. After Knox, I realise that the biggest problem we're going to face is people not feeling included. Here's your chance.

CDMs are pretty much designed to make your character the focus of the RP for as long as the mission lasts. You lead the RP, you control the setting, you put our characters in messy situations and you decide what happens where. These missions should be something aside from the general drive of the RP - ie. My mum's an axe murderer and she broke out of Jail, can we go kill the ho? Something personal and that enables your character to grow and change.

Get thinkin'.

Mkay, so, having thought more about this, I figured the best way to decide whose missions come up when should be pretty random. I'm thinking a roll will be suitable. If we can all think of one or two missions, that'd be great, and then we can roll on which we'll get to first. It'll help inform the bigger story. I currently only have one in mind for Barra, she's slowing telling me of a possible second.

I have one in mind for Batiste. I'm waiting for it to come to me in a way where I can put it out there without it being a dead give-away as to what the meat of the plot is.

I also randomly had one appear for this nameless man NPC of mine. We'll see what happens. :3
I have ideas for Erin's two CDM's. Of course, without giving too much away about what I have in mind I'll just do a simple whatsit.

#1: Something involving the Oomobali species that Erin played a part in driving away from Kartrass several years ago.

#2: Something to do with a rogue AI that's screwing people up. Erin doesn't like AI's.

We might have to collab on this bit, because this is more or less where I was going with the cyb-engineer's plot.
Seb's sticking with only giving me one to work with right now, which will involve Kimbra and Goliathus - reasonably, I think we'll need to wait a bit, until everybody's a bit more clued up on the bugs, before we can launch hers. Also, completing her mission will add another member to the team, so it's another good reason for putting it off a while. :3
Sup y'all.

Just as a heads up, I'll be introducing a second character when the group finally get their asses down to the colonies. I'll be treating it as his intro-RP, so if any of you are planning to use it as a CDM, hit me up so we can talk.
