Thought I'd put up topic to encourage anyone else interested in the game to post their own ideas, and hopefully get an idea or two into the final product.
Character and Crew Concepts:
Print{}, Revisionists: Crew of revolutionary artists who like to destabilize the status quo with their ideas and introduce beauty, chaos, and whimsy to stagnant servers. Seeks out artists of any unusual origin.
- Crew Ability: Stable Loops(?)
- Cohort: Fan club (Chatters) Subtext Recognition, Mandatory Patches
Rho, Filcher: A fractal graffiti artist who uses modified holobombs to produce elaborate organic fractal sculptures. Uses his Mask functions to sneak into all the places he's not supposed to be. His previous iteration chose to be formatted a bit differently with his love of art and desire for transcendent experience intact, but without his business sense. He didn't want his next self to be entangled in the bureaucratic end of memory purveying that dominated that life. He has some forgotten business partners looking to re-recruit him, but they'll have to find him, first. Given the flamboyance of his signature style, they'll at least know what district he's in.
- Mask 2, Link 1, Crash 1, Goto 1.
- Filcher ability: Shadow Dance.
- Filcher Equipment: Boosted Grappling Gear, Encrypted Memory Knife, Holobombs
Brut3, Daemon: A one-armed gigadaemon with a soft side in his textile pixel art that frequently explores negative space. Struggles with his public perception, but always there to defend his art guild. Dreams of a kilocycle when daemons become a respected segment of society, which probably means tearing everything down, first. His intelligence is often underestimated due to his name and stature, but he still knows how to make a deal. Often seen with his signature rug wrapped over the spot where his right shoulder should be. When asked about it, he often responds simply, "Co11ateral." He's perfectly willing to moonlight as a mercenary for Coin, wielding his giant Node-daichi in his left hand. Formerly known as Cu11, he's rumored to have once single-handedly derezzed a small Moderator faction, but at the cost of a banishment where the Arbiter did not look kindly on him.
- Link 1, Buffer 2, Crash 2, Goto 1.
- Daemon abilities: Mobster, Daemon Hide
- Daemon Equipment: A Vile Blade or Two, Legitimate Warez
Illicit Goodz Artifact: High Integrity MEMcard intended for Administrators. If a User is derezzed while in possession of one of these cards, they take no Drift, but always have the result of an unpleasant interrogation in The Stack, resulting in 3 Heat and the MEMcard being confiscated.
