/tg/Station 13

I've once again gotten that itch for Rimworld with the release of Biotech renewing my interest. On top of the rather rapid pace of mods being updated, I've decided to make ANOTHER Rimworld run. Looking for a diverse cast of crew misfits to once again embark onto the Rim and see how long things last before it goes to shit. Due to the genetics mechanic added by Biotech and the alarming rate at which some particular mods were made for it, this expedition is now capable of taking along our more scaled/feline-oriented crew along with the standard human.

If you're interested, post a character name and ideally some image reference for their appearance. I rather enjoyed doing these runs the last two times and the insane amount of additions between versions should make this more interesting.

Please have a clown and do horrible bio-experiments on him. Give him powerful +mood traits at the cost of being clumsy and good at nothing.

Not sure about artistic, but giving him great social skills would be funny because everyone will get super upset if he dies

i want to dig a big hole.

I figured the great art because clowns usually have a lot of free time and drawing all over everything is the other thing they're known for besides pissing everyone off.

I'm not sure how the biotech expansion works, but it would be hilarious if you could make the clown really enjoy making art but make him really bad at it. That way, all he does is eat food, make crappy art nobody likes, and make people sad when he gets killed. The perfectly useless crewmember on your Rimworld colony.

I don't think there's a gene that makes him enjoy making art, but people enjoy doing things they have a passion in, so he'd have to start with an art passion. However, Awful Art removes any and all passion they have for art. So you'd have to settle at Poor Art, but they'd eventually overcome the -4 to art and start making good stuff even if you gave them Poor Art and Slow Learner, or something.

I guess if you give him a background that makes him refuse to do manual labour, skilled labour, and violence, it's okay

That or just give him a large but overall benign brain tumour

Rex Eponymous. Maybe psychopath. Do doctor stuff maybe SCIENCE with no regard for human life.

I plan on starting this run sometime this week, list your characters if you want to see them die on the rim along their fellow spaceman.

Has this already happened or can I still add a character

So, how'd it go?
