The Composition of a Stargate Team
Hey guys.
I might have the opportunity to play in a Stargate campaign.
Although my knowledge of the series is very limited (at least I have seen the movie) I am interested. I would like to play a non military character. I'm uncertain what kind of character should I portray. I would like to come up with some ideas of my own to hand in to the gamemaster, so here we go.
My questions are: what personel did you use to make up your teams in your Stargate games?
And what sort of civilian specialist could be written into a campaign fittingly without being only a second Daniel Jackson type of guy?
My lack of in-depth knowledge of the setting is fitting for the role as my character would join the SG team without knowing everything about the history of the program and the accomplishments of SG-1 :-)
Could you please help me out?
My thoughts have been so far:
- Anthropologist (interesting)
- Linguistic specialist (might be interesting)
- Archeologist (already there in persona Dr. Jackson)
- Testpilot of some sort (scoundrel type like Han Solo / Indy Jones, hard to realise but fun)
- Medical specialist (don't want to do that)
- Engineer (don't want to to that as well)
- your thoughts...? :-)
