Equipment: Personal Transport Chair, Ugly Ground Vehicle (custom for personal transport chair carrying), practice melee weapon (1D), art collection (value 20,000 credits), Credit Debt (90,000 credits) field medical kit (complete pharmacy of medications, sedatives, pain killers, anti-depressants, anti-psychotics, and more)

Background: Cartoloi Abascla has been sick almost her entire life. For three years, she was healthy, then time caught up and the 3-year delay slammed home with interest. Actually, she is a genetic fluke. What she has assumed was luck (materially speaking, in spite of poor health, she has been able to capitalize on market trends, timing, and "coincidence" to enormous financial profit in spite of her physical condition) was actually a Force-based intuition and receptive influence. As her primary motivation is, and always has been greed, the Dark Side has manipulated her and given her what she wanted, through various methods. It has fostered and festered within her. When the healthy period ended, her powers lashed out at everyone near her.
Her endurance and coordination vanished. Her weight more than doubled.
The Dark Side tore out her mind and will, ravishing both as well as her body.
Her Force-talents actually turned against her, using her twisted perceptions to manipulate her body. She is actually hurting herself by altering her body chemistry in incomprehensible ways. With her knowledge of medicine (knowledge or principles, not the ability to actually heal/repair injuries), her mind is using the Dark Side to attack and destroy itself. She is thus able to convince chemical tests and machinery that her body is destroying itself, and with her Con and Bureaucrasy she is able to convince Medics, Doctors, and Insurance companies that they need to give her expensive procedures and medications. Many of these medications then create/enhance the psychotic effects of the Dark Side's corruption of her mind and body.
What's more, Cartoloi Abascla projects a telepathic field which depresses and strains those around her, either one at a time or distributed to as many victims as she can reach, depressing them, lowering their resistance, and applying a slow torture that will eventually lead to madness, dispair, and/or death. A WillPower roll and several months out of proximity are needed to break free and recover from the effects.
Cartoloi Abascla is constantly researching obscure medical conditions in a twisted hope of discovering which one might be the cause of her problems. The more she learns, however, the more the Dark Side has to twist and corrupt her body.

Intel/counter-intel assessment: should be considered merely pathetic if she weren't so dangerous. A highly sophisticated and manipulative mind hides behind the grotesque husk of a body. Should be approached with extreme caution only, and with proper support personnel afterward to assure physical and mental health following the confrontation.
Art collection contains a number of actual weapons, but the body is no longer able to use them effectively.

RT-DKO
Asthetic Technical Droid
DEX 1D PER 1D
KNO 1D STR 1D
MECH 1D TECH 1D
Dodge 4D (6D if there are low objects to hide behind); Cultures:Art 9D, Streetwise:art criminals 7D; repulsor-lift op 3D; Cleaning Device Operation 7D.
Equipment: small round body (.3 M tall, .5 M DIA), wheeled base, 2 fine-manipulator arms, Dust/debris collection armature/nozzel, IR/UV photoreceptor, basic vocabulator with snobbish accent

RT-DKO was designed to help the museum curator on a small world expand the collection of masterpieces by any means possible. Mostly, however, the droid has spent it's time cleaning and maintaining the existing exhibits and not much more. The curator had a limited imagination and even more limited budget. Consequently, the droid hadn't had an opportunity to show off, and has taken to sulking, speaking in astromech rather than using the vocabulator, and from time to time chastizing those visitors to the exhibits whose personal habits (death-stik smokers or just those with acidic body odors) threaten the art displays by bumping into them and making sarchastic or offensive remarks.

The customizations of the droid have attracted the attention of others in posession of similar collections, so RT may have some sibling units modelled after him.

Hey -- great job on these low levels, Koohii and everybody! I've used several of the concepts in some of the games I've run recently. Keep up the good work! grin

I might be contributing in the future, if I can dig up some of my old notes.

D'gyard Jonk
DEX 2D+2
KNO 3D+2
MEC 3D+1
PER 2D+1
STR 2D
TEC 4D
Dodge 3D+2
Knowledge Technology 5D+2
Repulsorlift OP: Salvager Transport 5D+1
Seach: Scavenge 6D+1
Lifting 3D
Repulsor-lift rep 6D+2
Starship repair 7D
computer program repair 4D+2
Droid program repair 6D+1

4 repair kits (starship, speeder, computer, droid), medpack, sporting blaster (3D+2), Salvager Transport speeder, RT astromech droid

D'gyard Jonk is a wizard at repairing anything, but he is even better at building something from scrap parts. His salvage vehicle is a perfect example. While not pretty, it is highly funcional vehicle built from the scrap of several others. While not a combat-veteran, D'gyard has had to defend himself from occasional toughs and protect his yard from fierce scavenger animals and Ranats. He trades his creations for the scraps left behind by various parties (losers in shoot-outs with bounty-hunters, crashed vehicles shot down, orbiting debris of pirate ships shot down, etc.) He trades regularly with both Squib and Ugor salvagers.
Another of his creations is his RT astromech, something he pieced together from several other astromech hulks--bits of R2s, R4s, and R5s make up the whole. No one can really say which it is more of to assign a number to. D'gyard just calls for "Ar-Tee". RT itself seems to be a very sensible droid, not bothered at all by its excentric eclectic composition. It is as fiercely loyal as any R2, and always seems to have the right tool handy, and uses its holoprojector to point out defects and other weaknesses or problems with D'gyard Jonk's designs.

Here's one that I had originally intended as a 4th Ed D&D character, but could be modified to fit some campaigns as a villain.

Original Concept: Elf/Eladring with Warlock Fey Pact. Problem: both races suck as warlocks (ok, they don't outright suck as they don't have bonuses that make them comparable with other races) Interestingly, the half-elf does very well as a Fey Pact.
He sees the humans as a blemish, a race of paracites to be eliminated. Humans defile the land, massacre the forests, polute and sully the air, and contaminate even the elven races by creating halfbreeds. With their poetry about forbidden love and the romance of the eternal youth imagry that distorts what it is to simply have a lifespan that can be measured in centuries, humans seek to take even mating away from the pure faerie by diluting elven blood. He has taken it upon himself to cure the disease. Toward this end, he has sought out power. He made a pact with his fey ancestors and uses the power to strike, wiping out stray villages at the outskirts of kingdoms and working his way inward--occasionally taking on the local hero or investigator. Sometimes he stays in one place for months to examine and analyze the town, sometimes he wipes them out and moves on within an hour. But he moves carefully and in a calculated manner designed not to be predictable until he actually is powerful enough to take on an army by himself, or has gathered enough allies to his cause.

Given the character I eventually made was a half-elf, the element of self-hatred made him much more interesting and fun to play. Looked at doing an Infernal pact instead, but it didn't quite have the fun, and we'd already had 2 star-pact warlocks, which took away that interest.

Sometime, I hope to put together an all dragon-born party.
