Did a few small updates and add ons to my profile… Might add more if I can think of anything to give the character more life…
Hey JP, if you want I can also let you use the character from my fanfic: The Brotherhood. I can give you more details on her past and such if you’d like. Though if you wanted to limit submissions to one-per-person that would be understandable.
Marah
Valker, more info is always good, gives him more material to work with. In case something doesn’t work he will just shape the character together with you if needed.
Well if there is any more details you think you might need then just let me know…
Yup, the more information the better guys. Bear with me as I try to compile everything. (I have to edit and re edit for changes as some forum users requested)
There will be changes to fit your characters into the story and I will try to have it “true as it can be” to your character.
I will not do anything that would seem out of character, and will contact everyone if I have a question.
Story tags so far: Grim Dark, Comedy, Serious, Action, Adventure, and romance…
Mmm, sounds like a epic saga I seen in a galaxy far far away long long ago…
1 Name:
lmnbar8-Name taken from the crashed transport which he was found. Also known by another name, but only to few very select few at this time for
security reasons.
2 Brief Decription of Appearance:
Just shy of 50, and a little overweight, he has short brown hair, ice blue eyes. Although quiet and well mannered, sometimes has violent fits of rage.
Mostly works alone, but has worked well with almost everyone he’s been assigned with.Has a large scare across the left side of his face caused by
a dagger during an attempt on his life.
3 Role in the SC Universe:
Can hold his own in most situations, often takes the role of “decoy” to distract or divide
the enemy forces. Became a “Merc” at an early age, engaged in privateering for more than 20 years now.
He is now a spy for Jericho charged with obtaining Federation technology for use of the Jericho
elite forces. Is thought to be involved in several sabotaged Iridium refineries and high profile robberies.
4 Allegiance:
Born to the Empire, his family was all killed trying to flee the oppressive society. At age 16, he found a crashed frigate with a survivor, John Holmes, whom he became friends with and learned much of the ways of the Federation. After being cheated in pay by the Federation, Lmnbar8 turned to the life of a pirate. After he defected to Jericho, a leading family convinced him to return and acquire Federation technology for a very large price.
5 Corporation:
THE CORP this is not likely to change.
6 One funny thing that distinguishes you above others:
After getting a broken jaw in a bar fight, every time he says the word “beacon” it sounds like the word “bacon”. Also, when he meets a attractive woman, he gets an erection and stutters a lot.
Edited my character profile. And I’m gonna throw in my opinions…
I like the story behind Kine’s name, it’s rather amusing. Kinda reminds me of the kid who gets pushed around in the playground, and then you feel sorry for him/her.
And lmnbar8, I think your character and mine are destined to punch each other in the face over ‘beacons’.
Addition: having a hard time with the last picture as an exam is coming closer, to picture the main features of the ship look at the sizes i wrote about it in this post and search for the Nyx from Eve online (they have a 3D model on their site - main page - ship viewer on the bottom), but just for the major lines of the shape

Seem to have some degree of interest by forumers.
You guys want to start something parallel and flesh out the Star Conflict world … ?
There’s so much left uncovered by the official storylines
Like historical and contemporary population centers. Economy and trade. System names, the Galaxy we’re in etc. etc
I can imagine it’ll be rather awkward to write anything detailed without background information… you could make them up as you go along but still.

Sure, so long as we don’t waste our time fleshing out an intricate galaxy only to be told it isn’t cannon and trashed. See: George Lucas
Personally, I would love to see the inner workings of the criminal underworld fleshed out. Middlemen, smugglers, salvagers, drug runners, mafia… and how they view/take advantage of the war and society in each of the three faction’s territories.
Maybe there’s a mercenary-run space station where all the criminals can meet and trade items with legals. Kinda like Freeports in Freelancer.
Or maybe there’s several large criminal syndicates that employ all types of scum and have a secret war of their own going on underneath the surface of the real war.
Illegal trade of precursor artifacts could be the driving force. Or just influence within each faction.
Or maybe they’ve experimented on people with precursor technology and have some sinister knowledge of what it can be used for.
IDK.
Based on what we have as official text - looks to me like only two people on the Development team gives a damn about backstory / culture. The one who came up with the concept and the person he hired to type it out.
- […] smuggling, mafia and whatever else stuff […]

- Learn some stuff about how business and interest works and the entire theatre of war is revealed before you.
- Pandora for one: http://star-conflict.com/en/game/sectors/1/current/ - locking a star’s light for power collection - this is a BIG one
You should take a look at the other sectors’ descriptions too, there’s several stuff here and there that raises intrigues.

I’m not sure if they read the fan fiction at all? I’m still wondering if they use it for inspiration, letting us build the universe of the game or if it is just a place for us to waste and enjoy some light reading time on. Or maybe everything in the storyline department stopped at what it is now.
And i don’t want to flesh out the SCon world, when i posted my wall’o’text i had the storyline open in another tab, the sector descriptions and a few other fan fictions (only Jasan’s remained in the end). But i found no mention what happened to Earth as of the mentioned date that we play in (which is also uncertain, i just know it is post-4620. After mankind leaves to search for relics in other sectors they push Earth away completely from the storyline it seems.
PS: post 400!
Reason I asked was because I remembered someone started to write his fanfic and in it got Jericho to ally with Empire to attack Federation. I thought that was weird. Fleshing out the SCon world isn’t for the development team. It’s for fanfic authors to use as a common ground for consistency. And as writers churn out their works, whatever info and details they create gets added into the ‘common ground’ pool hopefully growing the game world for future use one story at a time.
I see. Indeed a full alliance between Jeri and Empire seems completely off the charts. Especially against the Feds who are the middle ground for trading, connections / diplomacy and other stuff, thus the ‘prosperity center’. It only works if one plans a deception in it’s favor and you know what would happen next. Cults within the factions would probably do better at this subject.
I was thinking of adding small descriptions of the ships my character has, You what is a smuggler with out his ship after all… lol
[…] what is a smuggler with out his ship after all… lol
The circus ship xD
All possible tricks to get away or pass by unnoticed lol
You could call it ‘Toy Box’ 
JP, do you want us to provide in-game ship information? Just noticed everyone forgot to say what they fly xD
If yes how detailed and how many ships?
Ships wont be nessary, as normal mercenarys have multiple ships at there disposal.
Again, bear with me guys. Im suddenly busy with work and personal matters.
I appreciate this thread and your willingness to cooperate with this cool little project. Thanks so much!
- EleventhTime - aka “Eleventh” or Juuichi
- The youngest pilot of them all. In his mid-late teen years, wears goggles, short messy brown hair, has teal eyes, and is rather scrawny.
- Rookie, interceptor pilot, great ship mechanic, often repairs ships for the Empire allegiance for extra credits, and is an exclusive mechanic for the NASA corporation. Has an extensive knowledge of Jericho ships from previous events.
- Empire - Mechanic
- NASA
- After epic battles, he scavenges the battlefield in his commonly known “Garm” for roughened up ship parts to fix up and sell.
Okay,
-
The three factions will NEVER want to ally with each other. That breaks canon by all aspects.
-
Corporations on the other hand CAN ally with other corporations of differing factions, provided they are after the same objective or goal.
-
Mercenaries are selfish people by nature, but usually stay loyal to other friends or their corporations.
-
Every character can have a mini arc, with 2 people mentioned involved in something that could be foreknoledge for them being properly introduced.
my one rule: when writing a story and you think the reader is expecting something, stop, do the COMPLETE OPPOSITE and THROW IT OUT THE 3rd STORY WINDOW! Thats how you make a good story. RANDOM PLOT TWISTS! (I swear sweet rolls DO NOT get mentioned till later!)
^ Probably the only post in this entire forum when all points of someone are valid and correct 
Soooooo, any news on the sketches?
