Merchant Reaper
SOC-9
I had a strong psi character in a MegaT. game that rolled box cars for psi strength and then threw boxcars for special, then eleven for teleportation, then eleven for Awareness, then ten for telepathy. Since I was tested as a teen the GM also gave me a +2 to my psi strength for having a 12 INT.
Anyway, I ended up breaking the game because of the special the GM decided on my having, the ability to "talk" to electronic devices, which we labeled Cyberpathy. If it was electrical, and controlled by some kind of code, or computer language. I could "talk" to it. I spent years developing my Psi-powers, even did 5 terms in the marines, Commando. Won many awards, including 3 SEH's, due to bonuses my DM gave me for using my Psi to survive. Fianlly, I had my Cyber powers maxed out. I had also taken skills in Computer, admin, business, and trade. I had also obtained a source of anagothics. I also did not lose any stat points during my two sets of checks.
Now to the meat of how I broke the game. Using my psi powers and knowledge of computers and business/admin, I started monitoring tranactions involving rich people through less secure access points, and recorded their codes. I spent several years working for major banking agencies, obtaining dozens of codes of very rich people and Mega corps, and lesser, but still wealthy Corps.
I then started embezzling, setting up dummy accounts that bounced money around and eventually into my accounts. the dummy accounts were set to self delete after 3 to 5 transactions were relayed through them. I did this for ten years. After accumulating over 26 trillion credits, using the embezzling and the insider trading info I obtained from ease dropping for some awesome investment opportuniites, I bought myself a noble patent of Marquee for the world of Emerald in the Jewell sector. I spent 12 years upgrading that world to be TL16, across the board, including my massive shipyards. I had also built a large contingent, or two, of naval warships, and support craft, all with Jump 5 capabililties. With huge fuel tankers I could use them to jump deep into an enemy territory, attack, and return. The Zhodani were near by. I knew they were very rich in psionic resources, so I also had my ships equipped with psi-shielding. I still had a back door into every ships control systems. I had also recruited some very good psi-talent for my own purposes, one of which made him like grandfather, in that he was a super genius (his "special", and only, psi power), and was an awesome researcher, working exclusively for me, and had an ego well fed by me.
Needless, to say the GM knew he had a huge gaming headache on his hands, that was only going to get worse. So he ended the game.
