[b]Backstory[/b]
If you have never played Bioshock 1 or 2, you [u]must come from the surface.[/u]
If you have played either, you may start as a resident in the west side of the city. Coming from the surface is still an option.
If you have played both in their entirety, you may start as a sane big daddy (be aware Big Daddies do not have access to plasmids, unless you choose an Alpha Series), or as a courier for Andrew Ryan. Coming from the surface or being a west-end resident are still encouraged options.
Be aware these rules will only apply to early characters.
[b]Skill System.[/b]
The skill system is an experimental work in progress. Essentially, you will be able to choose what areas your character is good and bad at, without a long annoying number system that must be updated constantly. The ratings go from Proficient (best), to Good, to Average, to Bad, to Horrid (worst).
You must have 1 Proficient skill, and 1 Horrid skill. You [u]can[/u] (this is optional) acquire a second Proficient skill, but you must add 2 [u]more[/u] (total of 3) Horrid skills as a sacrifice. You must have 2 Good skills, and 1 Bad skill. The rest of your skills must be marked as average.
Skills to choose from:
Health(amount of damage you can take before being forced to retreat, heal, or die):
Eve(used to "cast" plasmids):
Guns(effectivity with all ballistic weapons):
Experimental Weaponry(effectivity with all non-ballistic, non-plasmid weapons):
Plasmid(affects plasmid damage and effectiveness):
Melee(damage of anything from wrenches to drills to bayonets):
Speech(how convincing your character is in conversation with NPC's):
Scavenging(finding ammo, money, Eve injectables, and rarely even new weapons is easier):
Speed(allows you to move faster, and in some cases perform more actions before the enemy):
Hacking(increases odds of success, speed, and overall effectiveness of hacking anything in Rapture):
It is encouraged to try to make these skills match your backstory (ex: from surface, low EVE) but not required.
Overall, have fun!

His father was, well a big daddy, and his mother was one forced into a kind of prostitution ring as to create another generation of big daddies, hidden from the public eye of even Andrew Ryan himself, deserters or renegades, if you will. Yavin was, for lack of a better term, the runt of the litter, and cast out to live in the madness that is rapture, though he was lucky enough to find himself a "home" to live in [b]Skill System.[/b] Melee: proficient Scavenging: proficient Eve: horrid Hacking: horrid Guns: good Plasmid: bad Health: good Speed: average Experimental weapons: average Speech: horrid
