Starport Encounters

[Jame]

A topic dedicated to all sorts of encounters at starports.

To get started: A group of adventurers looking for a starting or new ship, they would need to go to a shipyard and a bank; also deal with the ship seller and bank loan officers.

Could deal with hiring vessels, being hired by vessels, booking room on ships. Also the locals in a port: shop owners, port personell, world natives at the starport on business, and etcetera.

An adventure seed: a local "street worker" who has stumbled upon a huge secret (or thinks that he/she has) and gets the PCs either very angry or in deep trouble...

Hey..Mythmere! IDEA..

We make 200 of these puppies up out of what we drew up, kay? then make ten separate columns-for the generic 20 places in the starport concourse where they might occur? Whaddya think?

I am working on TA: Travellers & Citizens - which will contain a variety of NPC's and encounters - a number of which will occur at Starports.

Yeah, quit moaning Mulliss! (remember, I know where you live...)

But seriously folks, I was thinking the encounters would be quite vague skeletons that can be used anywhere, not really detailed ones like G is doing.

The problem is that a number of these NPC's are going to be generics and some of the more interesting ideas I have seen posted resemble those that I am writing - just worried about accusations of plagarism.

Liam - I will post some of the "cast-offs" when I have decided what I'm going to cut.

Don't feel bad, Merlin - I was working on a Starport Supplement that MJD cleared. I think that one is most likely gone completely after Ports of Call gets published.

###I haven't a mean bone to me, honest! Besides, we work for the same CoTI/ Qli. I have no ZHodani/SolSec clairvoyants or spy devices in your region of terra.

Mythmere! I hadn't a clue. really this is a surprise.<honestly>. I wouldn't give up on it, if I was you. IF you feel this is going to supersede it, I'd check with da Boss, were I in your shoes.

e-mail me at liamdevlin44@yahoo.com.. this sounds like an off board chat to me.

we should probably have Vargr and Aslan merchant crew templates (like in the THB) - I already did an Aslan crewfem on another board (Enemy superstore). Vargr wouldn't be long to add. Would be interesting to put in a Virushi spacer, too...
The THB covers most of the other types that would normally be found in a starport.
