Now, is the second part targeted at my question? I got a bit confused as it as almost in the same sentence.

Okay, typical soap way of meeting: I used to date the best friend of your roommate's sister, so I got to know you too. Sound good?

ROFL...sounds totally convoluted...so its perfect! So let's set the basic premise...did we not like each other? It could be that. Perhaps Rei wanted to have a go at the roommates sister and stole her away from you...muahahaha....and then tossed her aside.

ohhh the plots...and it hasn't even started yet!

I thought that we did and I was in need of a job and that's why I came to bunk at your place for a time.

Perhaps Rei wanted to have a go at the roommates sister and stole her away from you...muahahaha....and then tossed her aside.

No, you forgot 'the best friend of' from there.

ohhh the plots...and it hasn't even started yet!

Indeed.

I'm ready for some soap opera fun! but I think I'm still confused as to how exactly characters are created. Levels, picking skills, etc. Should we pick levels and skills that make sense for the character we chose? It would be kind of silly to have adults and teens with same skill level.

Okay to keep myself (and everyone else) sane I suggest that EVERYONE create a character at Level 2. I beleive that the issue of Teens vs Adults is addressed through the Age prereq for Occupations (eg a White Collar worker (Lawyer) has a Age prereq of 23.

However I will allow 1 bonus feat for characters aged over 25, 50 and 75

So the Character Design Process is

1. Chose a Name and 'concept'

2. Decide how the Character is 'connected' to the Family

3. Choose 3 'Core Character Traits' (Alleigances) - this defines the characters personality (eg Ambitious, Manipulative, Rich)

4. Determine you Major Goal (eg to Takeover control of Banking)

5. Determine your Secret (email me ngaiterangi@hotmail.com)

6. Build a Character at Level 2 (28 pt buy)
6a. Choose an appropriate Occupation Background
6b. Choose Skills that will help in a Soap Opera (ie more mind games than combat)

* Remember
All characters begin with 5 AP (regardless of Level)
All characters gain Wealth +2
All Characters should be connected somehow
