Character Occupation: Chemistry Consultant
OBJECTIVES
Primary Objectives are your character's main goals. This should be the thing that drives their part of the plot. When not engaged in stories, these are what occupy your character's thoughts or keep them busy. Examples include: acting on a desire to become a powerful and respected leader; attempting to overcome some horrible thing in the past which hinders the character on a day-to-day basis; seeking to break out their shell by overcoming profound shyness (getting involved with stories); comping to terms with a major flaw that inhibits the character from reaching full potential; etc.
Secondary Objectives are minor goals. These should be an undercurrent for your character when they are engaged in stories or on their free time. Examples include: acquiring weapons and becoming proficient with each one; improving sundered relations with a companion; improving their reading comprehension; mastering news spells; researching a cure for a plague; etc.
Objectives such as "making friends" or "finding love" are NOT acceptable. Please put much though into your character's objectives - they are what flesh out your character and one of the most important aspects necessary to portray the character as 3D.
Primary Objective: Spread his hedonistic and chaotic worldview or find a partner willing to be along for the ride with him. Ultimately he seeks to indulge in the joys of life but has never felt complete without a true soulmate by his side to enjoy the experiences with.
Secondary Objectives: Attend concerts, experience new things and taste, feel and see the world, make music, synthesize or tinker with chemicals and recreational drugs.
MUNDANE SKILLS
These do NOT require points. These are the average, daily things your character can do. Examples are "drive a car", "speak one Foreign Language", "play a guitar", "write poetry". Some mundane skills come from your bio and are freebie. A soldier has gone through Basic training. However, Medic, martial arts or sniper would be a Specialized Skill or Talent.
List Mundane skills here
Drive
Swim
Speak Arabic
Write Music
SPECIALIZED SKILLS AND TALENTS
These are specialized skills that set you apart from the average person. You have 7 points to spend here. Examples are swordsmanship, sniper, coercion, medic, wizarding, piloting etc.
- Ability 1 and Points Spent: Superb understanding of organic chemistry and pharmaceuticals. 3 points
- Ability 2 and Points Spent: A familiarity with criminal and underground elements able to supply contraband. 1 point
- Ability 3 and Points Spent: Outstanding physical health. 2 points
- Ability 4 and Points Spent: Basic self-defense skills. 1 point
OPTIONAL SUPERNATURAL CHARACTERISTICS
You have 7 points to spend here on supernatural skills or abilities. Sonic Scream, Levitation, Spell Casting, Shape Shifting etc. Superman MUST have his kryptonite thus weaknesses are things which inhibit the ability. Restrictions are what can't they do with their power or what balances it. They can only use it when they genuinely need it? They can't use it for more then five minutes without serious side-effects? Some things are allowed without points. A pegasus has wings thus it can fly. A raptor is fast thus no points are spent in speed. These "natural" abilities should be listed here, however. What isn't allowed: teleportation beyond a few feet; the ability to alter or go back/forward in time.

List:
1 cartridge and injector of nanites capable of cellular and chemical repair
EQUIPMENT
This is what your character has on their person at the very moment when they are pulled from their home dimension. Don't abuse this. They won't be clutching an entire bunker.
List:
A small travel bag containing clothes and two pairs of shoes.
A omni-pad, basically a smartphone built into a chip in his palm.
Several small bags of various recreational drugs
A Union Passport
BACKGROUND
Be detailed please. You must explain how your character aquired their skills, talents, abilities, and special items. Wrap your primary and secondary objectives into it.
Education or Training: 4 years at Menoa Prep Highschool, multiple classes in traditional Arabic language and Music, 6 years at Menoa University with a Major in Pharmaceutical Chemistry and a minor in Pharmaceutical Law
Character Background/Biography: Born to upper-class parents in the city of Menoa, Samuel was exceptionally well provided for as a child, never having to want for anything. His parents could afford private tutors and extra classes so Sam excelled in school, his wealth and social status also made him popular among his peers. Despite his apparently ideal life Samuel suffered severely with Depression in his teen years, it was at this time that his fascination with Drugs and chemicals at large developed. By the time he had graduated high school he had experienced much more than people of his age thanks to lax parents and endless money, his summers had been spent attending music festivals with friends or partying days away at second homes.
However, Samuel still failed to find a sense of happiness in his life and had never fostered a real relationship with anyone. As he went into college he decided to take his love of chemical intoxication and make it into a career, the almost non-existent drug laws in the SCU permitting him to experiment and break new ground in mind altering substances. With a well paying and secure job Sam now seeks to fill the void of meaning and connection that has bitten away at him for so long.
