In the first episode, referee Matthew Capodicasa takes players Sydney Amanuel, Skid Maher, Alicia Marie and Seth Skorkowsky through Traveller's famed character creation system, building the lives of our crew together. Plans go awry, careers get discarded, dreams are abandoned and no one ends up where they expected.

Voyagers of the Jump is an original adventure using the 2022 2E Update to the Traveller RPG rules set by Mongoose Publishing.
First published in 1977, Traveller is a science fiction RPG in the vein of The Expanse or Battlestar Galactica. Most who played the original game back in the day remember the robust character creation system where if you push too far and get unlucky with the dice, you can die before you even start playing.

I wanted to thank you for giving your time. I can’t wait to see you play Traveller. I learned how to create characters from your videos. Thanks for that too.

God Skid is such a wonderful human being. Just immediately comes on with the most genuine, warm, "I'm so happy because i'm such a big fan of everyone here and all their specific stuff" while being such a funny, talented, absolute treasure. What a truly lovely man, he makes me smile by being him. And by being other people too.

@Guts3570 Жыл бұрын

This character creation seems so good. The way that it takes the players control away from aspects of their own backstory makes their story so much more believable. In real life things don't always go the way we expect or want them to, and it translates that into the game really well.

@docsavage8640 Жыл бұрын

Thats why random generation is almost always preferable to point-buy

@keithparker1346 10 ай бұрын

There's a nice mix of randomness and choice. I suspect over the years people have devised their own versions for non Traveller RPGs. I suspect it would work quite well for Call Of Cthulhu characters

@owenf5222 8 ай бұрын

It’s very much that when you start character creation, you have already started playing the game. You look at your abilities and what you want, you decide what you want to try to do and roll the dice to see how well your character accomplishes their goal. It’s the same process as any other action in the game, just over a larger time scale.

Bit of a pity you're going to finish rolling them offline, but looking forward to seeing an actual campaign unfold!

I did two message board versions of the game. Loved both characters. One an engineer, daughter of a somewhat famous archaeologist and another engineering type, extremely educated, but puts on the affect of a ‘backwoods seat of the pants’ engineer. And is best described as a ‘determinator eeyore.

Career Book 1 even has expanded event tables for the standard careers and life events. They are highly recommended!

@GryphonDes Жыл бұрын

One of the best, and for some tables most terrifying thing about Traveller is its sheer scope ! It is massive, and the Imperium's level of tech can be mind boggling -- but remember its size is ultimarely what gives the GM and your table the flexibility to tell any, and I do mean 'ANY' kind of scifi story -- the Imperium is so big - that it can comfortably exist within it! As for characters -- say goodby to the wide eyed 18 year old (though you can try that too if you want) - but normally the characters are nicely seasoned, averaging late 20s to late 50s in age :O Gotta love it!
