Prologue
The Scoundrels last chance
- "I made a deal with the devil, Jimmy, she dies. I go free."
-"We all got our choices to make."
-"Damn shame...
You are Tychus J. Findlay former marine, outlaw and convict and you have died. Shot through the head by Jim Raynor your long-time friend and former partner in crime and more recently part of his rebellion.
The reason was over a woman or more accurately you being forced to choose between your life and hers on account of being fitted with a kill switch and being ordered by the one holding your leash to betray your friend and kill her, it ended up with her being fine and you quite dead.
Strangely you feel quite self aware despite being dead that said something seemed to be pulling you away from your body not in any physical direction but rather "away" from the world itself...
As you faded you heard Jimmy ordering his men to leave your body where it lay on account of you being a traitor.
[ ] It made you feel regretful that things ended like this maybe you should have trusted Jimmy more...
[ ] Goddammit why the hell did things turn to shit like this...
[ ] That just shows that you can't trust nobody but yourself.
[ ] It's just the way of things, those at the top endlessly shitting on those below themselves.
(Choose one)
As you faded even further you suddenly gained clarity that you had never felt before both in your sense of self and your perception of the world itself and as whatever force where dragging you away strengthened you felt yourself reflect on both yourself and the universe at large your own memories suddenly clear from birth to you death.
[ ] You were never one for painful self reflection and thinking about anything else even armour maintenance and repairs would distract you somewhat...
[ ] Maybe you should reflect on everything that has happened in your life it's not like you will get the chance to do this ever again... Probably...
[ ] It is because you always took whatever chance you got but perhaps if you were more patient and had simply told Mengsk to shove it up his ass when he came calling you would have been freed by Jim when he busted all those spectres out...
(Choose one)
Suddenly it feels like you have passed through whatever separates the universe from everything else whatever "that" is you can't quite comprehend it as you hurl through whatever it is towards something? You feel as though you are going mad and try to shut your non-existent eyes to no avail.
[ ] You turn further inwards and concentrate on everything you remember of the world you left behind shutting out the "something" as best as you can.
[ ] Why the hell would you quake at anything you're no coward! You are Tychus god-damn Findlay and no pansy ass "space-continuum" or whatever would make you flinch!
[ ] Maybe if you tried to figure out whatever surrounded you it would hurt less? You've never been a deep thinker but perhaps it was worth a try...
As sudden as you departed from your former world you arrive at a new one and as you entered this new world you do so as you did it in the last one as a damn baby.
The first few years are hazy as it took some time to well re-establish your sense of self and your old memories returned in flashes and dreams but by the time you were ten you had realized a few things...
That you were born in the so called:
[ ] Taurian Concordant.
[ ] Magistracy of Canopus.
[ ] The Outworlds Alliance.
[ ] Free Worlds league.
[ ]Federated Suns.
[ ] Draconis Combine.
[ ] Lyran Commonwealth.
[ ] Capellan Confederation.
Your new parents surname was:
[ ] Andersson
[ ] McKellan
[ ] Findlay (What are the odds)
[ ] Write-in
They named you:
[ ] Tychus (no really what are the odds)
[ ] Morgan
[ ] Victor
[ ] Write-in
In the beginning you didn't quite know how to feel about all this reincarnation bullshit or how to regard you new parents? But in the end you decided on:
[ ] The only parent you ever had was your mother bless her soul and that good for nothing man calling himself your father...
[ ] They treated you alright and looked out for you and in the end you simply thought of them as a second set of parents.
[ ] Eh well they gave you food and shelter so you got their backs.
You had trouble deciding what to do when you started getting your memories back but in the ned you decided on.
[ ] Telling your parents what was up.
[ ] Keeping it mum, nothing good would come from telling anyone.
More concerning than your memories were the "feelings" you would sometimes get that seemed to pop up whenever something was going on. You finally admitted that you had some weird ghost shit going on when your "feelings" allowed you to:
[ ] Suss out a traitor and thereby saving the lives of some of the other mercenaries working with your parents.
[ ] Find a real mother-load of germanium that some poor son of a bitch had hid and left behind some centuries earlier letting your family make mint.
[ ] Find a group of pirates that had hoped to sneak by and in the process impress the local commander.
Your parents were mercenaries piloting giant war machines resembling Goliath's and Thor's of your old world and they had complete ownership over one of those beasts. It was an:
[ ] Archer ARC-2R
[ ] Orion ON1-K
Thus your early years passed and in the year of 3000 you turn eleven and the world keeps turning...
GM note: Ok so here is a new quest were you will be following Tychus as he gets a second chance. You will get different bonuses depending on your choices and such.
Starcraft will not play any role except for providing you with Tychus and depending on your choices either more Psychic powers or more knowledge/technology from his old world.
