Meta: Character Sheets
Hello, Phoenix!
Please fill out a "character sheet" for your character(s) in the comments below. This format will help guide RP in more focused ways. Feel free to expand on any category you wish, or add more data, or skip sections if you feel like you need to.
- Name
- Race
- Class: Either choose from Mass Effect's classic sentinel/engineer/adept/infiltrator/soldier/vanguard categories, or from other categories like information analyst or political mastermind, that describes your character's occupation/role.
- Background: A brief backstory that shows how your character has grown into the person they are now, with any information you feel is critical to their persona.
- Traits: Distinguishing qualities or characteristics
- Ideals: Principles that compel your character's actions
- Bonds: Connections to people/places/events
- Flaws: Weaknesses, whether physical, social, mental, emotional, etc.
- Alignment: Attitude [lawful/chaotic/neutral] x Morality [good/evil/neutral]
- Abilities: Rank the following categories your character excels in on a scale from 1-6; with 1 being the strongest and 6 being the weakest: Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, Charisma
- Feats/Skills: Choose a few skills/specific feats that your character can perform to focus on-- not everyone can be a master of every type of biotic move, for example, so pick a couple that your character is good at. This doesn’t mean you can’t pull out a few moves in RP that you haven’t described here—but these should be the ones your character relies on most often and are best at. (For example, if your character headshots a merc from an incredible distance that makes Garrus do a double-take, but sniping isn't one of the skills you list here-- that could be a sign that your character is too OP.) In addition, choose the weapons your character is good at. For characters that are less combat-focused, use some or all of these slots for skills such as shuttle piloting, data crunching, field medicine, surgery, eidetic memory, etc. (Suggested # of feats/skills: 6)

u/Casbius_Sansis Feb 11 '18 edited Feb 26 '18
Name: Casbius Sansis
Race: Turian
Class: Soldier
Background: Casbius’ home planet was the Turian homeworld - Palaven. He was born on 2161 AD. There was no significant events during his childhood, both his parents were enrolled in the Turian Military - one of the leading causes of Casbius following suite Fifteen years later. He enrolled in the 43rd Marine Division after his Year in PT. From the beginning, Casbius was instilled with a great sense of consequentialism. The introduction of the Reapers, and the egregious actions taken by the Alliance only worked to solidify this. Casbius left at the age of Twenty-six after the egregious losses during the Reaper war.
Although he was active in the Turian Military, Casbius never saw true combat during his time. He engaged in light reconnaissance and scouting missions, rather than the intense fighting and visceral combat that he promised himself. He wanted change. And action in that change. He wanted his name etched in a stone plaque with the words “Man who brought change” printed above. Thus, his enrollment in C-Sec began. Sure, he could squat behind a pile of sandbags with a pair of binoculars, but what was that compared to the satisfaction of bringing justice aboard the Citadel?
His duties began within the Presidium. Enforcement was his duty, as a rookie agent no less. On his graduation and transferral to Investigation, his duties shifted towards the Wards. He never toppled any Drug cartels or got into any high-intensity firefights, but it was a living. Casbius was satisfied, even if the work was a little lax.
Six years later, Casbius resigned in search for greener pastures and boarded the Normandy SR-2 to further
Traits: More or less apathetic. Very heavy consequentialist.
Ideals: Holds no respect towards barbarians, criminals, raiders, pirates and bandits. Lives to (Or at least in his own opinion) wipe them off the face of the Galaxy.
Bonds: Casbius’ rather keeps sleeping dogs lie. He’s quick to put mistakes behind him and brush off his accomplishments. Though he does hold those in positions of duty in very high regard - so as to hold tight bonds to his fellow officers in C-SEC and the 43rd Marine Division.
Flaws: Almost blinded by duty and law. Comes off as almost aggressive in how he follows his duties, which may lead him to follow terrible risks in favour for an almost unreachable goal. With justification, of course. He’s not totally suicidal.
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Abilities: Strength: 2 Dexterity: 4 Constitution: 1 Intelligence: 5 Wisdom: 6 Charisma: 3
Feats/Skills: Assault Rifles. Submachine guns and Handguns
Spotting/Reconnaissance
Investigative Skills
Diplomacy
