I managed to recreated him in NWN's and messed around testin gother people's mods.. Here's a shot of me in a starfleet uniform with a wheel lock pistol... The phaser needs work though, the light sabres look cool however.

if you let this kind of play in a forum world, a nice admin skill would be "FTP'ng and editing the Dbase"  dealing massive damage to a certain area/character.....

:D I hardly need anymore incentive. :lol:

I'd love to be an NPC though, maybe an oracle of sorts. A local dude you can go to and ask for help when seeing far away places. ;)

That's what we have UT's stories for :D

I dont mind being an NPC, at least allows me to wield something into the story.

Speaking of which - when do I get started on the thing anyway? May need to talk to you about the overall concept first Tiara. If you are free now that is.

(anyone have the server for the IRC channel? Lost it a while back im afriad :()
