Glimmer

Post by Wyvern »

I like having character sheets available in a forum. It's nice and convenient. This one is for my kobold tinker in a space opera game being run over discord.

Image
(Head shape isn't quite right, but eh. Still neat to have a character image to work from.)

Her name translates as Shining-Gold-On-Reforged-Gears (this is also her high concept), though she usually goes by "Glimmer" for short. It is also reference to a bit of kobold culture: they use gold (yellow) as the indicator color for 'systems okay', rather than the human standard of green.
Invoke or compel for being a kobold, or for fixing things, or for finding beauty in stuff that works regardless of how polished the brass is.

Trouble Aspect: The Next Shiny. This can be a new broken thing to repair. Or a new food she hasn't tried. Or... etcetera. (Kobold traditional recipes aren't... bland, exactly, but they are very same-y, as a result of them living in subterranean arcologies amidst the ruins on Mars. So trying as many different foods as she can is, in fact, very much on Glimmer's to-do list.)

Other Aspects:

Tail for the Tail-less: Glimmer has found, to her surprise, that there are some non-kobolds that are worth working with. For kobolds, the saying isn't "I've got your back," it is instead "I'll be your tail". Invoke to help her allies. Compel to have her head into danger to help her allies.

The Great Prank War: Accidentally started when repairing the Sunseeker without bothering to inform the ship's navigational AI that, in fact, there was someone here and doing repairs. Gleefully continued even once this oversight had been corrected. Invoke for pranks and prank-adjacent things like traps and sneakiness. Compel for being pranked, or to try and pull pranks on people she maybe shouldn't.

Skills:
+4 Smithy
+3 Skulking, Zeal
+2 Larceny, Mark, Blast
+1 Devotion, Lore, Inquire, Cunning
+0 Pilot, Chivalry, Melee, Vigor, Daunt, Intrigue, Household
[+] Skill List, as compared to the Fate Condensed defaults
Athletics -> Zeal
Burglary -> Larceny
Contacts -> Lineage
Crafts -> Smithy
Deceive -> Cunning
Drive -> Pilot
Empathy -> Chivalry
Fight -> Melee
Investigate -> Inquire
Lore
Notice -> Mark
Physique -> Vigor
Provoke -> Daunt
Rapport -> Intrigue
Resources -> Household
Shoot -> Blast
Stealth -> Skulking
Will -> Devotion
Stunts:
Racial Stunt: Legacy of Dragons: when working with existing devices, ignore tech-type penalties to Smithy.
I Can Take It Apart, Too: use Smithy in place of Melee when attacking with a tool.
With Cat-Like Tread: +2 Skulking to avoid notice by indirect, non-visual senses. (Also, Glimmer makes a habit of moving quietly, and will frequently - read, whenever it would be funny - accidentally sneak up on allies and neutral characters. This is listed as part of a stunt because it usually won't be worth anyone getting a fate point.)
Amateur Kobold Dungeon Diver: +2 Mark to notice traps and automated guardians.

Glimmer's personal mech still needs a name, but it's a roughly wyvern-shaped machine, modified from an old repair platform.

Head: Re-Tuned Plasma Torch - provides Blast at +4
Torso: Jumpstart Capacitors - as an action, roll craft against the number of shut down systems of a mech in your zone; on a success, temporarily restore a system of your choice on that mech. Costs a fate point if successful; does not cost the fate point if the repair attempt fails. (A temporarily restored system fails again at end of scene and must then be repaired normally; in addition, the mecha's controller cannot choose to disable it again to absorb stress.)
Wings: Vectored Thruster Array - allows flight, negating penalties to zeal based on ground terrain difficulties
Tail: Reactive Balance Systems - +2 Zeal for dodging the first attack each round
Legs: Swiss-Army Claws - +2 Smithy when working on mecha-scale machinery
