w00t, I will be posting some more materials here in the next few weeks. I placed a few racial modifier stats on the other races on this page. You can see a lot of stuff on the Xin at the comic site.

Xin generally get along with most other races. As former soldiers for the Shi'an wars of conquest they are no strangers to interacting with alien races. As biomechanoids (essentially biologically engineered lifeforms) they are socially awkward and at times seem to bumble through social graces of other races. They are intelligent, fast learners, with an innate sense of curiosity and desire to serve. They are much more resillient than humans to extreme conditions and slightly stronger then your average human. They have superior night vision but inferior bright light vision. They have a very poor sense of smell which accounts for their ability to eat things that discuss humans and more sensitive spieces. Sense of touch is identifcal to humans and they are warm blooded. Xin have two sexes and are capable to reproducing heterosexually. However, do to their bio-engineering they much prefer invitro type clinical reproduction through artificial gestation where the development of their young can be carefully orhcestrated. Xin are very long lived and have natural life spans that have been known to be around 500 or more Earth years if they are healthy and without major injury or defect. The Xin were engineered by the Shi'an with physical features to fit function and environment. These Xin "castes" developed into were raised together, worked together and formed social communities together which became known as Clans. There are five clans, the Tal and the Fen are two largest and most powerful clans developed for interstellar travel and warfare" The Tal are more diplomatic and the Fen are more direct. The other three clans were devestated during the Xin's war of independance against their Shi'an creators. While the other three clans still exist there numbers and influence are considerably smaller. The three smaller clans include the Kae, the Pax, and the Gao. The Xin homeworld of Ryaden, located in the milkway galaxy, was left unihabitable by the great war with the Shi'an and the surviving Xin were forced to flee their now toxic and devastated homeworld. The Xin now roam the galaxy as nomadic wanderers finding solace in small refugee pockets throughout the known universe. The Xin are naturally gifted astrogaters and space travellers, as this was engineered into their genetic make up, and freely share their knowledge with others...even at times when it is not requested. They have a bit of an Ego but not do feel themselves as superior to others. The Xin have a loosely bound interstellar democratic based government which is called the Xin Confederation which is ruled over by a Clan Council of elected members from each of the five clans. Xin law is a tricky thing as it differs from clan to clan and is more of a abstract guide then a strictly concrete concept. Fen Xin are often sympathetic to their former masters the Shi'an feeling that the rebellion was too extreme and that life under the Shi'an was often better than life as homeless refugees. This is often a point of contension between the Tal and Fen clans.

Xin have a bio-mechanical organic structure throughout their bodies which they call the Q'almar. It is the legacy of their Shi'an biotech and provides a source of their accelerated healing and resillience. Xin have the ability to heal 10 STA points once per day making them very difficult to outright kill.

Absolutely, we would love to have you.

Please submit a basic character sheet by posting it here in the forum like Terl Obar did. If you would like to play a  frontier race you will get the chance but will enter a little later in the game. If you would like to play a Titan Rising Race there is a lot of basic info on racial characteristics for the Xin and some basics on the Edon. Simply apply the appropriate racial modifiers to your attribute rolls when creating your character.

We are in serious need of the following player occupations for the William Logan's command crew.

First Officer
Ship's medical officer / doctor
Security Chief
Chief Engineer
Pilot / Helmsman

(Similar postions for UPF crew will also be needed later)

Starting As A Level One Is Fine, Or If You Like You Can Go To A Training Center Prior To Start Of The Adventure And Learn A New Skill Level. The cost for learning at a holo center is 100 cr. per skill level and five days of training (Just like hypno training). Level 1 skill crew members will get paid 50 credits a day so if you start now you probably could move up a skill level prior to launch. Just post what you job you are starting to do on the ship and we will put you to work earning money for that next skill level.

Sounds good, Terl is our Nav. / Astrogater

Please remember that all Officer Positions are considered graduates of the Colonial Space Fleet Academy at Anchorage Station. To see the equivallent benefits of being a graduate please see page 91 of the remastered SFKH campaign book under the section on the Golwin Academy. Though the names are different the results are essentially the same. Please adjust your skill levels appropriately to reflect these skills on your character sheets as graduating officers. As stated below you can also improve skill levels by visiting the Holo training center on the 'Logan for the cost of 100 cr. per skill level and five days of training as equvialent to hypno training in the AD expanded rule book.
