31 Day Character Creation Challenge


Dr. James Musa
Neptune Foundation frontline doctor
Dr. James Musa is a frontline doctor from Abuja, Nigeria, working with the Neptune Foundation since his residency after graduation. He now leads a field team.

Aspirations
In-character goals, one long-term and one suited to a single session or adventure

Long term: Better global society
Short term: Ensure the team epidemiologist doesn’t get himself in trouble on this mission

Paths
Each Path gives Skill dots, Connections, and Edges

Origin: Suburbia (son of a doctor) Connection: Favorite Professor
Role: Medical Practitioner (frontline doctor) Connection: Surgeon
Society: Neptune Foundation (rising star) Connection: Aid Worker

Skills
3 each from Paths, and 6 more. (Which makes 15 dots, so you could have 1 in almost all of the 16 Skills.) James’s Medicine being 3 or more also gives him a Specialty.

Aim

Close Combat 1
Command 1 ;
Culture 1
Empathy 1
Enigmas;
Humanities 1

Larceny
Medicine 4 (Specialty: First Aid)

Attributes
Nine Attributes grouped into three in both directions, with Arenas (Mental, Physical and Social) determining number of dots to spend, and Approaches (Force, Finesse and Resilience) adding 1 to each in that band. I went Mental, Physical, Social, and Resilience which adds to the third in each.

Mental
Intellect 4
Cunning 3
Resolve 3

Physical
Might 2
Dexterity 3
Stamina 3

Social
Presence 2
Manipulation 2
Composure 4

Edges
Assorted kinds of advantages. I haven’t given him any supernormal Gifts.

Danger Sense (1)
Iron Will 1 (resistance to duress)

Hardy 3 (resistance to illness)

Big Hearted (1) (good at keeping friends)
Fame 1 (known among Neptune circles)
Patron 1 (some backing)
Wealth 2 (a comfortable life back home, which he hardly ever sees)

Inspiration
The point where a character becomes a Talent, extraordinary though not superhuman. This also adds a dot to an Attribute.

Saving someone's life (Composure)
