Aw man... I think i'm at my limit right now. Already in one SW Rifts. Sounds fun though!
Sorry, I didn't realize the GM opened a *new* recruitment page - it's HERE.
I might already be in that one.

Indeed you are "Julian"
Sorry to learn about the issues with a sick cat. We have two and went through something like that about ten years ago with one who developed a urinary track blockage.
As for the SW RIFTS game, I'm a sucker for new character creation, especially in the RIFTS system, which is interesting. I'm creating a character for this game, which has been keeping me busy the last day or two.

Elton's campaigns can be a lot of fun actually :)
I think I've played in some of his games, probably Pathfinder or Starfinder society games.

Totally - there are times when paused PbP just requires a little faith
Just made my first post with a Techno-Wizard. The recruitment is still open if anyone wants to get in, but there are several other characters in development.
FWIW, the recruitment title said "looking for 2 players", and 2 players responded and have joined. But, in his original recruitment, the GM said he wanted 4 players, and eventually went up to six, so if anyone's *really* interested...
Hi Everyone. I am somehow still in this campaign. If the GM could go to the Campaign settings and deactivate me, I would appreciate it.
Done.

Are we looking for a positive connection to the alliance (maybe neutral)?
Arabella's husband's connection to the Alliance
Key: 1-25 criminal; 26-66 Neutral; 67-100 Alliance]
Arabella's estranged husband, unknown to her, has committed crimes against the Alliance that are pretty serious.
Does Arabella know about this?
Key: low = no, high = yes
She suspects he may be since her requests for information on him have gone unanswered, and he was a scoundrel who disappeared with their 2 year-old daughter.
Has her daughter since established a positive or negative standing with the Alliance.
Low = negative, high = positive
Unbeknownst to Arabella, her daughter is a full-fledged browncoat enemy of the Alliance.
Arabella's seems to be in for a surprise when she gets to meet the family again. :)
Brook - if you have any negative connections to the Alliance (e.g. have ever stolen from them, or been interrogated by the police for a suspected (even if false) crime), associating with the prospective passengers might bring that up (or not...).
I think Brook throws up a little bit in his mouth ...
