Basic Character Details

Names

Choose your character name!

This can be as simple as a first name, or a long combination of first names, family names, and other planetary culture naming points.

You will also have the option to add nicknames to your character, primarily to help crew identify you if you don’t always go by your first name.

Job prefixes that are suitable to your profession, such as Dr, are appropriate to add here.

Restrictions

Avoid copying full names from popular media. Even if it’s a niche piece of media, it’s much better to put your own spin on it.

Planet of Origin

There are five origin planets your character can be from. If you wish to be from a spaceship, you must still be affiliated with one of these five planets. It is not currently possible for players to create their own planet to be from in this game, or originate from an alien homeworld (other than Earth).

Earth

Viront Z85

Marzion IX

Geostation Kessler

Sultonia

Your planet of origin does not confer any mechanical benefits. However, each planet comes with its own society, philosophies, and approaches to the universe, and we encourage you to pick the planet which has the ideas you’re most keen to explore or which is the best fit for your character’s motivations. There may also be roleplay situations or in-game scenarios specific to each planet.

Aliens

There are six playable aliens at Ardent Spacers. It is not currently possible for players to create their own aliens to play in this game, but more will be added over time as the story progresses.

There are no mechanical bonuses to playing any of these aliens, but each may have specific roleplay prompts when entering new environments or receiving specific injuries or medical treatments.
