That's pretty solid. I am a little unsure about the minimal guns training, and I'm still figuring out improved confuse. The target block seems to be transport, but that would be good to confirm. You also didn't describe a world to be from. Knot tying is weird, but whatever.

I think the game looks like a lot of fun but I'm to exhausted to try and make up a character to fit these specific requirements at the moment

If a character is all that is keeping you we've got a dropped player and I made three "test" characters back when it looked like the game wouldn't happen. Shooter-mind control, sneak-precog, and face-tk.

If no character is the biggest obstacle. I can understand if it's only the first of many.

Improved Confuse: Like Confuse from Psionic Powers, but it works on electrical machines (figuring the percentage cost based on the confuse technique) and causes Daze instead of Stun.

Block is transport. I guess automobile is the right specialty for the forklifts. No necessary skill for elevator operation?

Knot-tying was copied from the infiltrator template (along with many of the other skills).

Here's some biographical information I put together:

Spoiler:  

Name: Hua Cheung
Race: Human
Height: 5’3”
Weight: 142 lb.
Age: 28
Hair: Black, bob cut
Eyes: Teal
Skin Tone: Light

Bio: Born in Fángqu Lièhùzuò II, Bianjiang, the third of three children. Her teachers found her to be surprisingly hard-headed, and getting into trouble sneaking around. During the Sha Tsui Coup, she and her family resettled to Kimbilio IV, Quinta Republica around age 11. Perhaps the popular belief in the disloyalty of Bianjiangese migrants was what spurred her to become such a fanatical patriot.

Kimbilio IV is a remarkably cold and mountainous planet, notable for a few ski resorts and electronic junkyards. Between fiddling around with obsolete electronics and skiing, Hua managed to keep busy in her youth. Once, during a ski trip, she ended up being trapped in an avalanche. She managed to survive but has since become quite skittish whenever there’s a plausible risk of being squashed.

At university, Hua was considered fairly studious (at the very least, not much of a partier), while pursuing a geography degree. However, after one semester, she discovered she had psionic powers and proceeded to join the army. It was her duty after all.

Oh, I see on knot -tying. If you want to switch that to some forgotten skill later on, remember it.



Looked up daze. Its fine.



No skill is needed for elevators unless its for moving heavy things, and that's freight handling, which you have. I don't know that automobile is exactly what you want for a fork-lift, but we both know what its for, so it will work.



I like the background.



Hua is ready to start play!

This made me laugh. Its true, but I'd have never though to put it that way.

for the record, I rolled Pothi and Botha up from random tables.

Should we expect to receive any additional character points in play, or is that unlikely given the time span of the mission?

Its fairly unlikely.
