Base Character Creation
Posted: Wed Aug 28, 2019 7:42 pm
Character Creation will take place in a few stages. The creation of the base character (I.e. the individual before they are recruited to the SOE) is the first stage.
To create the base character the following items must be identified. Most of these things will have game relevance, but may not necessarily alter game mechanics.
Name: (Should somewhat match nationality/ note this is not your cover name)
Nationality: (All nationalities in existence at the time of WWII are available. German POWs were even recruited as agents, Soviets are the least likely race to be used or accepted)
Citizenship: (Along with nationality, but this is your country of actual citizenship)
Civilian Occupation(s): Choose any occupation in existence at the time of the WWII you will be able to pick five primary skills from the skill list which you would have learned through your occupations. The skills should make sense and be explained in your background. Military and additional training is provided after your background phase.
