Then again, he’s equally well motivated to fuck you over if it ends the “misunderstanding” with the Protectors and restores him to his rank and privileges afforded by it. The Protectors want him dead more than ever and tried to kill him several times, so he’s well motivated to help you, should you side with the Brotherhood. He failed the Mission one time too many and had to switch sides in order to avoid honorable death by firing squad of his peers. The Colonel – a former officer of the Protectors of the Mission, makes the best damn fried chicken on the ship. You might think it’s a bit harsh but religious fanatics rarely make great traveling companions and joining the Church is more than a cosmetic choice. Once he’s in your party, you either do what he says or you kill him, which will displease the Church greatly. He won’t act against the Church’s interests and won’t tolerate your lack of faith, should you ever display it (he would find it very disturbing). He’ll join you if you join the Church of the Elect to make sure you deliver what you promised and keep you from having second thoughts. The Preacher – a man of God dedicated to saving sinners’ immortal souls but showing a callous disregard for their mortal bodies. Other than that he’s a great guy to be around. Holding out on him might give him the wrong ideas about the partnership.
Being paranoid, he gets bad feelings a lot, so unless you like shooting your way in and out, consider getting someone else. He doesn’t have much patience for diplomacy or long winded conversations, and if he gets a bad feeling he goes for his guns. He doesn’t care which side he’s fighting for as long as he gets paid. The Gunfighter – an unstable and somewhat paranoid (which is why he’s still alive) gun for hire.
To give you an idea, here is a quick overview of the top four gunmen who might be persuaded to join you (keep in mind that men of violence are rarely well adjusted individuals): In other words, the party members won’t be loyal and obedient slaves but will have their own beliefs, agendas, and personality traits (or in some cases, programming).
There will be 12 potential companions (max party size is 4) filling different roles: psychotic paranoia, racial superiority, religious intolerance (works best when mixed with homicidal tendencies), political idealism, and other delightful personality quirks. As I’ve mentioned earlier, the CSG is a party-based game and the party dynamics will be one of the areas we’ll focus on.
