Interest Check: Mobile Suit Gundam Game

I'm cool with that. Heck, we technically even have an IC reason for it. Nephilim's Hail Mary. It can get us into the same zone as an allied ship.
 
Hm. Interested. I'd like to join, if possible.

Name: Resh Duran
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Rank: Lieutenant Jr. Grade

Appearance: A young African-American male with an old scar over his left eye(Accident from childhood). Other than that, he looks normal for an Earthnoid.

History: His life as an Earthnoid child was a pretty good one, despite being near battlefields for most of it. He'd help out those who cannot run or protect themselves when a fight between Mobile Suits breaks out near his home. His father was a Zaku pilot that fought for earth in the early days of war, but was shot down after five successful ops. Resh plans to take up his father's mantle not for vengeance, but for honor.

Personality: A snarky, but respectful young man. Follows orders when he needs to and breaks them when he sees an opportunity to go for the protection of fellow allies. Likes to take out the enemies effectiveness by wearing them down by drawing out the fight.
High Concept:
Never the hero: Resh never takes the credit for saving people. He'll say that someone else did it and that he stood by.
Aspect: Stand behind me!
Trouble: Screw your orders! I'm gonna save them!
"Listen to me..... They're fighting to keep guys like you from being KILLED, FOR FUCKS SAKE!"
"Run! I got your back!"
"I fight...... TO PROTECT THOSE NEAR TO ME!"

Skills: +4 Piloting
+3 Melee, Shooting
+2 Notice, Physique, Will
+1 Medicine, Empathy, Deceit, Investigate
Stunts:
Team Player: Resh has been extensively trained to work together with others. Add two of the Guns skill when using it to make a maneuver to grant an aspect to an ally of Resh's. (A similar stunt could exist in many other skills.)
Shrug It Off: Resh doesn't bother to dodge; he don't need to. When he is attacked in a physical conflict, he may choose to make his defense Mediocre. If you do so, roll your Endurance skill and gain armor against that attack equal to the result. Armor from this stunt stacks with all other forms of armor.
Perfect Parry: Resh is a master of not attacking anyone in a fight. Add two to your Weapons defense rolls when taking a full defense action. This stacks with the normal benefits provided by full defense.

I'm good with skipping past Loum. It's been appropriately depressing, now it's time to get into the game proper!

We're playing Federation pilots in this particular RP and I think we're at capacity. If you want to try this again when I launch the game proper you're welcome to, though I think your aspects and story as are aren't as strong as they could be.
 
Plus the Zaku II is the new hotness as far as weapons of war are concerned at this time.

So, a person who was around areas with a lot of insurgencies, right? Because Zeon would be no threat to anyone on Earth in that point in the timeline?

He'd help out those who cannot run or protect themselves when a fight between Mobile Suits breaks out near his home.
The only way this makes any sense at this point is if anti-federal groups made a habit of using Mobile Workers as a makeshift weapon against Guntanks, and considering the lax state of Federal Mobile Suit development that seems unlikely at best.

If this character's father is presumably an Earthnoid, then how did he get his hands on an enemy weapon this early on? Was he a part of that unit piloting Captured Zakus from the second episode of IGLOO?

Yeah, there's not much explanation for how you would acquire a customized mobile suit this early on, but there's a lot of problems in that profile aside from the backstory, we'd have to do your aspects and stunts from scratch it looks like. That is if you're receptive to criticism on it.
 
If everyone who participated in Loum could submit any changes they would like to make and their extra Loum-created stunt, that'd be great. Think a Stunt that's influenced by your character's actions and experiences during the conflict.
It might take me some time.

Right now I'm too sick to think straight and I'm going to be on a trip Friday Saturday.

Trust the Targeting Computer, Christopher: Once per scene, if shooting with the aid of a computer able to calculate a firing solution (so inside a ship or mobile suit or something like that) you may increase your Shoot skill by +2.

Take your time. I don't think I'll be able to tie up everything in just a few days anyway.

Can I suggest this from the Stunt Wiki?

"Uncanny Accuracy. Once per conflict, stack an additional free invoke on an advantage you've created to represent the time you take to aim or line up a shot (like In My Sights). (Fate Core, p.125)"

Sure.

Also thinking of changing Trouble to 'Ghosts of Loum', totally not because that sounds cool.
 
Have you designed if you want to run one character, the other or both?
I don't know, and honestly not sure if I can for the next little while in my current mental state. Having one of the bugs that makes you feel really damn dizzy for some reason.

Thanks. I'll try better next time.

Sorry, got the sides mixed up. I'll fix that. And yes, actually. How'd you guess that?
 
@Sushi

I have no problem with this.

I dunno what Maion's would be, considering I don't really consider myself having done much of note, which does make sense for a guy who was a test pilot.
Maybe I could name the Stunt, whatever it is, something like "It Works In Practice, Too" or something? Something to compensate for his poor combat skills and illustrate he can use his Piloting offensively?

...that said I'd almost be up for calling it "Maneuver Kill" or something of that sort.

The reason I wanted the computer in there is that he hasn't used guns that he can hold in Loum.
