I died in c-gen!

I rolled up two Traveller characters the other day. It was an interesting process. The first one was a Scout Service Bureaucrat with medical training, and the second an Imperium Naval Gunner.

The first guy (a pudgy blue collar genius) died at the age of 29 during assignment to a field mission. The second (a burly, though clumsy, fellow from the upper classes) died at the age of 22, during a planetary siege.

Ah, fun times.

Your characters rock, Jirris. :)

What version of Traveller were you playing?

I was playing MegaTraveler. It was the best Game Master I've ever had.

Trust me, for every awesome character I have, I have at least half a dozen who suck big time. Thankfully, they all seem to happen in one or two games. The downside is that I never have fun playing these games. I *want* to like Exalted, Heroes Unlimited, and Rifts (which I've had a mixed bag with rifts), but the games focus too much on min-maxing with the people I've played with. I'm not so great at min-maxing.
