My possibly conflict has been solved.

I will be free for gaming on the 8th and 22nd and contuining.

However, the 1st and 15th and continuing are now booked for the game I am running over skype.

So, are we all good with the 8th, then?

I am.

Still missing Zylo on Obsidian Portal.

Do we want to finalize the nature of the macguffin? Is it a flag, a tech design, weapon? Should we summarize connections?

Me to Kenneth(drell): contact arranged between my boss and his
me to Karr(quarian): Karr is a frequent contract employee when the PI business needs to get into secured systems
me to Dr Hutchison(human): her clinic/charity operates in my neighborhood neighbor/frequent acquaintence?
me to [redacted](asari): security head of project Delphi, which funds the clinic. have met a few times when she visits the clinic.

(this is assuming that it is just a clinic and is part of delphi and not that hutchison works at the HQ)

Can I directly edit the obsidian portal, or do I need to email someone my character info?

Karr to Kenneth(drell): Long time partner on missions from his current career as a merc. Likely the closest thing to a friend Karr has ever had.

Karr to Varley (Turian): Has run several mission for Varley's PI firm to establish himself in the underground world as an infiltration and data retrieval expert. Paid handsomely for his repeated services.

Karr to Dr Hutchison(human): His go-to Doc as she is probably the nearest medical professional with the best working knowledge of quarian psychological needs and injury treatment in this sector. She has been treating Karr's various injuries he has sustained over the past several years while working as a merc. Many of the credits he has received from his PI contract jobs have gone to pay for Dr. Hutchison's services and as donations to help keep her clinic up and working. (??? if you are okay with that)

Karr to [redacted](asari): (Assuming that Project Delphi funds the clinic) Likely meet on several occasions at various gatherings to thank donors for his repeated small but not insignificant donations to Project Delphi intended to help keep the clinic up and running, and to support their development for treatment of Quarian physiological needs.

(If Project Delphi is simply hired by Dr. Hutcinson to provide security)
Likely has met several times when Karr requested personal protective escort to the clinic (Or perhaps elsewhere for greater amounts of credits). Perhaps has even been hired by Karr to provide extraction from difficult jobs? ((I'm not 100% clear on exactly how Project Delphi operates so feel free to nix anything that does not fit)

The eighth works I will take a closer look at obsidian tomorrow for any further additions to the characters and will discuses anything else we need to confirm here on the forums.

I'm good with that relationship. Dr. Hutchinson is the lead human doctor on the program, and the program hired out security, of which the Asari is the chief. I'm not sure if my character would be in charge, but she'd be up there in rank.



I could see a situation where some equipment got stolen and I hired your PI firm out to find it as well. Perhaps I've even sat in on occasion in a card game or two (and lost money).

The Asari and I have a working relationship. That leaves Kenneth. I've read through his story, and the only thought I had was perhaps I had contacted him regarding the plague that swept through his hometown years ago, as that same strain that was in Hanar those years ago had popped up in a different colony and I was looking for any information a survivor might have regarding it, as a human doctor getting details had proven difficult, even through the Project Delphi channels.

It would be extremely difficult to contact Kenneth after making the transition to Kenneth's current home but sure that works.

Ok, how about we twist that a little. Dr. Hutchinson tried to contact Kenneth by sending him a letter, which was a general form letter asking for any information on the plague that they might have. It was sent through a general channel, so my character would have no way of knowing exactly where you were. That way, we wouldn't know each other, but would know of each other. Does that work better?

I don't think it's necessary that EVERYONE knows EVERYONE, is it? I threw out possibilities for my character having connections with everyone, but not all need to actually pan out (likewise that each other PC knows every other one directly). If some connections are second hand, that should work, otherwise things can start to feel contrived. The everyone to everyone thing really only works if there is an actual group of some sort (family, grew up in same neighborhood, military unit, etc)


Unless GM says otherwise of course.
