Major Erik Jensen, 2 terms Army, 25000 CR 569687, SMG-2, Rifle-1, Mech-1, Admin-1
Lady Marie Leroux of Penzance 4 terms Noble, 10000 CR, Auto Pistol, 3 High Passage 48852A Hunting-1, Carousing-1, Navigation-1, Grav-Vehicle-1, Vacc-Suit-1, Zero-G-Combat-1, Auto Pistol-0, Rifle-0, Dagger-0
Tried for a weapons expertise improvement, but failed (rolled 7), will try again after a year of play.
Equipment and cash after selling 3 High Passage for 27000: 23,610 CR
Supplies for the ship: 100 days dehydrated rations, 8 Hostile Environment Kits
Combat Gear: Auto Pistol + 10 clips, Rifle + 10 clips, Dagger, Cloth, Reflec
Other Gear: Hand Computer, Long Range Communicator, Radiation Counter, Atmosphere Tester, Medscanner, Light Intensifier Goggles, Cold Light Lantern, Respirator, Filter Mask, Combo Mask, Cloth Protective Suit, TL 8 Heat Suit
Just for fun, I tried to roll up a dwarf using the rules from Dragon magazine:
Dwarf Hero Skori (5 terms, age 160), 6000 CR, Great Axe, Hand Axe 9CA7B4, Great Axe-4, Prospecting-1, Mechanical-1, Shotgun-1, Tactics-1, Instruction-1, Brawling-1, Hand Axe-0 p.s. I think the Instruction skill should be swapped out for something else.
Ok, I had a set of stats I rolled while trying to roll up a Dwarf that I held for another use, and we have:
Adele Boudreau, Lady Marie Leroux's personal servant.
Adele got her training through Lady Marie's family business (essentially the Merchants). She was well regarded in that service, attaining the rank of 2nd Officer after 3 terms. While in that role, she was initially tapped to man one of the turrets, however, her personal skills eventually led her to serving as Lady Marie's personal servant, with the promotions a recognition of that service. She is also trained in using the false transponders the Penzance ships utilize.
Stats: A35999 Age 30, Merchant 2nd Officer 3 terms, 41,800 CR (sold 2 low passages) Steetwise-1, Gunnery-1, Bribery-1, Vacc-Suit-2, Zero-G Combat-1, Electronics-1, Steward-1, Shotgun (1), Foil (1)
She has made her dedication roll (8) to start a Weapons Expertise program in Shotgun and Foil (noted above). She will share a cabin with Lady Marie.
Kit: Shotgun (10 clips), Foil, Cloth Armor, Reflec, Hand Computer, Long Range Commo, Med Scanner (total kit 5120 CR) Cash remaining: 36,680 CR

True, most of my favourite characters have been one-term losers that ended up winning.

Makofan, I'd like to slightly adjust my character with two alterations: (1) Apply the second "gun" benefit as a skill, giving him Shotgun-2, and (2) change the Vehicle skill from Ground-car-1 to Air/raft-1. I'm assuming Air/raft falls under Vehicle skill, even though it's listed as its own thing in the Scout skill lists. Finally, Buzz receives a small pension.
If that's cool, and after purchasing equipment, Buzz looks like this:
Barry "Buzz" Goudreau Scout AA4927 Age 42 6 Terms Cr 48700 Electronic-1, Shotgun-2, Mechanical-1, Medical-1, Pilot-1, Vacc Suit-1, Air/raft-1 Pension Cr 6000, Shotgun
Shotgun ammo 100x Cloth body armor Cold weather clothing TL10 Combination mask Vacc suit TL11+ if possible

Sure, and Air/Raft is now part of the greater Grav Vehicle skill

Since the ownership of this player character has now officially changed hands, I figured I would repost his stats: San Halo 868D85 Merchant Captain, 5 terms, Age 38 Jack-of-all-Trades, Gunnery-2, Steward-1, Bribery-2, Revolver-1 Pilot-1, Vacc Suit-1, Streetwise-1, Wheeled Vehicle-1 4000 CR Merchant ship with 20 years of payments left Revolver Blade Low Passage (cash value 1000 CR) NOTE: Since in Traveller a "Blade" is a weapon distinctly different from a knife, I think San is likely carrying something which looks rather a bit like this . . .

This is probably overdue, but I got to thinking about Lui's background and how it relates to our crew.
Being 26 years old - four years of which being an active member of the Scout Service - his relationship with the Duke is probably one of a guardian nature. If Psionics are viewed with distaste as in the Third Imperium, the Duke may have rescued a young Lui Wu and have him introduced to a Mángdiǎn Temple, which could nurture his growing telepathic abilities. The Duke's reasons for doing so are a mystery to Lui, but he would be grateful to the Duke for having been sheltered at the Temple - just for the sake of quieting stray thoughts around him in his mind. The years of disciplines at the Mángdiǎn Temple have benefited him greatly, teaching him control of his powers and respect for others' privacy.
Lui tends to over analyse situations, as his teachings have explored the nature of actions having consequences and these consequences creating very real alternate realities. All actions have meaningful impacts on life as we know it and beyond our traditional understandings.
During travels through Jumpspace, he is commonly found on the bridge of whatever ship he is serving on, meditating through an open view screen, observing the pinpoint of the void ... The Mángdiǎn believe that all powers of the mind are awakened and strengthened by the void in the Jumpspace Dimension. Others, however, contend that staring into the blank is the surest path to space madness.
