my own pawn is probably the most OP pawn i will make, but considering the pool of people sabotaging the poo poo out of themselves so far i don't feel too bad about making one that you'd actually be happy to recruit.

If it aint too late, throw a fatass pawn named Warmachine in there. Too Smart, Depressive, Double Flame High Intelligence, one flame medium crafting, no dumb labor, and no art if you can manage it. Feel free to throw unstable in the traits as well. I think that's the one that gives pawns mood swings right?

I just want to be a pawn (Lprsti99 for the nickname) that has mental breaks at the drop of a hat. I don't remember what the most effective combo would be, but something like Depressive/Neurotic or whatever, good at animal training and shooting.

Note this is only because Keeshhound already laid claim to The Worst Pawn.

as i mentioned before i can only do 2 traits because i have to put in "Spawns in World" for this to work. i'll give you Depressive and Too Smart because we already have quite a bit of volatile.

Edit: for fewer traits

i don't see a "Bleeding heart" trait. this may be from a mod you have. i've shuffled this pawn to the end of my queue to give you some time to respond to that. i'll think through what it would imply and do my best if i don't see you respond.

I'd like to be a pawn. Call it Toxic. Uh...I like cooking, crafting, and intellectual. Social skill should be zero. For traits how about night owl and neurotic.

Incapable of social is probably better and abrasive would be an appropriate trait too. Really I just like the idea if being the irritable guy that makes stuff but just wants you to go away and leave him alone.

The worst pawn was already taken so I have to go for useful but frustrating like why do I put up with this pawn?



there isn't a good background combo for all of the things you hit on here so i did what i could - which turned out to be a really funny combination of things

so can I be a pawn please?

nickname TorakFade, male, age range 30-40, nudist trait. I'm not wearing no human leather pants or shirt, no sir (hats are cool and good).

As for stats and passions, eh, just don't make me totally useless and it'll be fine! I'd prefer shooting rather than melee if I actually wind up having a combat skill, but it's not a requirement.



i swear to god the name here was randomly generated.

not sure why you thought this was an onerous request, this ended up being the easiest one so far. you got a bit of a bump by being genned at 53 (i aged you down) but mostly this was a lucky roll where your career stacked with your bonus points.

so your profile made it impossible for me to do the things you asked without also disabling doctoring. not a big deal - but one quirk is that you actually rolled asthma. i disabled it because not being able to do doctoring even on yourself is actually a really big problem with asthma under certain situations. if you'd like to add it back in let me know and i will do so.

also, character limits on names meant i had to abridge your handle.

this ended up being tougher to sort out something sensible than i thought. only reasonable combination of things ended up being something that disabled cleaning...but i figured it was probably fine since if you end up with someone with that many flames, AND the killer Neurotic/Too Smart combo, you're not going to waste their time doing something that doesn't skill them up.

your name was also too long and had to be abridged.

first request that really lent itself to some of the more primitive backgrounds - which, coincidentally, are also the backgrounds that tend to not have incapables buried amongst them.

Gadzuko posted:

i basically just set up your traits and then smashed random on backstory until i got two things that both buffed Artistic. you lucked the gently caress out so hard on your forbidden labors and other rolls that i went ahead and added large tolerances to every addictive substance in the game to make it a lot more likely that you'll get addicted to whatever you binge on first, without actually addicting you to anything.


anatoliy pltkrvkay posted:

Well, if not: "Pyatre" for the name, whatever for hair, chemical fascination and night owl, good at crafting and animals

i had no idea how to gender the name you gave me and your profile claims you are a porpoise so congratulations i let the RNG decide and you're the first daughter of lowtax. beyond that, i really just rerolled until i saw hard points in both animals and crafting, and transferred 6 soft points out of artistic to boost your animals and crafting by 3 apiece. congratulations, you also got off pretty lucky on forbidden labors. you had a pretty strong stab scar on your hand (5 points!) but i got rid of it because scars are really big problems in vanilla and i always hate it when the game just sort of tacks them on like it's no issue.



Anticheese posted:

Is it too late to get in the pool? :sun:
i still don't see any guidance for you, so i'm doing the full RNG thing

i removed a psychic sensitivity to put in the spawns in world trait. your backstory makes no sense but if someone can ignore the fact that you're too good to haul you're really surprisingly good. i should've left you in your initial 17 year old state where you were useless as gently caress for everything BUT hauling but not having an adult story really hurts so i rerolled. you're welcome.


Flesh Forge posted:

I wholeheartedly endorse that approach :thumbsup:

i aged you down slightly (you rolled at 50 biological) and removed a bite scar on your neck (which is a particularly bullshit location for a scar because it irrevocably fucks with your eating). that's literally all that happened here. on the down side, the dice hated your main skills more than anticheese, and gave you asthma. on the upside, they liked you enough to not forbid dumb labor and gave you some hella flames!

your comment about showing up as caravan guards got me to use the gun dealer thing here, which gave you both the shooting you wanted and a nontrivial amount of social so :stoked:

Was reminded I own this. Is there a mod kind of halfway between vanilla and prepare carefully? I like pressing random but I'd like to be able to exclude stuff I'm going to reroll anyway, like pyro or terrible passion/skill/exclusion combos. I haven't played in ages so maybe vanilla makes better guys now by default I don't know.

Wish I'd stopped by sooner to get myself into goonworld. If there's still time give me cooking, construction, lazy, night owl, and some random crap. Mutate my name as desired.
