The People

Racial Templates are adapted from Banestorm rather than Basic Set.

Dwarf (34 points) Elf (49 points) Gnome (4 points) Halfling (7 points) Human (0 points)

Half-Dragon (122 points) Half-Elf (22 points) Half-Orc (6 points) Soulmech (variable cost, base 101 points)

Drow (82 points) Orc (-33 points)

Centaur (70 points) Faun (Satyr) (22 points) Kobold (7 points)

Notes: Racial Quirks do not count against the limit of five Quirks, and Racial Disadvantages are not counted against disadvantage limit. But, if you buy off any racial disadvantages, that does not increase your limit. E.g. if there's a limit of -75 points, you play a drow, and mark your character Not Callous, your disadvantage limit is still -75, not -80.

Uniformity of the Races

As the people of the galaxy first began to contact new civilizations on distant worlds, they realized that most of the creatures on every habitable planet were pretty much the same, including their DNA and the languages they spoke. In the early years of star travel, there were a number of conflicting theories purporting to explain this seemingly impossible coincidence. These ranged from the existence of a master race (or several of them) that seeded the galaxy in days long past to more scientific models such as parallel evolution. In the end, a prominent priest named Nasuit offered a solution to the riddle that had the ring of truth.

The gods made the creatures of every world in their own image. Nasuit taught that there were only a dozen true gods in the universe, and they created the same creatures on just about every planet they blessed with the gift of life. The sentient races, monstrous beasts, animals, insects, and plants—the same deities created all of them.

While there are certainly strange and even unique creatures scattered throughout known space, these are the exceptions that prove the rule. The high priests of the Unification Church call these creatures the gods' experiments: The gods created many worlds and many creatures, not just the same ones over and over. Like a novelist who returns to the same characters and themes time and time again, the gods used the same tools over and over to create different worlds and different situations, and to watch them all evolve according to their own unique destinies.

Today, of course, few of these stories are untouched by the grand epic of the Dragon Empire. Perhaps there are other galaxies out there, too, also fashioned by the gods in different, sometimes strange or alien ways. But only the gods know for sure.

Campaign

Specs

Recommended Power Level: 150 points, with -75 point limit for disadvantages, and -5 for quirks.

Tech Level: 10 (see Equipment, below).

Prohibited Disadvantages: Anything that has a cost of -30 or less (unless it is in the racial template), and also: Amnesia and Weirdness Magnet. Mental illnesses are not recommended.

Prohibited Advantages: Anything that costs 30 points or more (unless it is in the racial template).

Starting Wealth: $50,000 for average Wealth. (Remember that you can't start Very Wealthy or better because of the point limitations.)

Languages: As usual, everyone starts with their native language (only). There's plenty of real-time translators around, though it's still recommended to learn Common. Many settled planets (i.e. those which didn't have a native intelligent race) have Common as their "native" language. Common is indentical to modern English.

Cultural Familiarity: Everyone starts familiar with their home culture, at a cost of 0 points.

Equipment

Ultra-Tech Armor, Ultra-Tech Weapons, and most other equipment are available, up to TL10. Not all planets have nearly everything that TL10 has to offer. TL11 things are generally not available at any cost, and most of it is only theoretical or completely unknown.

Legality Class 0, 1, or 2 equipment are generally not available for player characters. Ask GM about any LC3 gear.
