conversations.value: Lets build a character background together. The setting is 1105, 3rd Imperium.  The rules are a home cooked Storium adaption of the Cepheus Engine's character creation. If none of the above made sense don't worry. Gritty, deadly, interpersonal space opera is what I'm looking for. 
  
  Most importantly keep in mind that Space is an unforgiving place. Your character has a good chance of dying within the scope of our storytelling. Please don't take it personal. What kind of space operatic death would you like to write about?

conversations.value: Tell us about your home. What was your world like when you grew up? Who were your parents?
  What were the stories you grew up on?
conversations.prefix: Home: A prologue:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Your human heritage stems from those who lived on Terra until the backward world developed its own jump drive. Only to find that the surrounding space was already dominated by of all things... Humans. 
  
  In true Terran form it only took your people centuries to invade and destroy this so called First Imperium. Your people then imposed a millennium of Terran rule upon known space.This era known to history as the Rule of Man. 
  
  Your people were also the architects of the dark age that followed.  
  
  Pride and Prejudice are your Birthright.
conversations.prefix: Solmani:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Your heritage reaches back to a population of humans, abducted hundreds of thousands of years ago and transplanted to a planet now known to history as Vland.
  
  Vland was only habitable by humans in the most elementary of ways. The harsh environment shaped these humans in such a way that they lept forth into the stars, of their own accord, ten thousand years before any of the other branches of Humanitie.
  
  For ten millennia your people ruled all of known space.  Util your long lost Terran cousins arrived 
  
  Tradition and authority are your birthright 
conversations.prefix: Vilani:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Humans weren't the only species taken from Terra hundreds of thousands of years ago. Your people's heritage goes back to the wolves of Terra. 
  
  Why and how the Vargr were uplifted from ancient canine stock and shaped into the intelligent and adaptable bipeds of today is not known. Their planet of origin is known to known  space as Lair.
  
  Your people hold a poorly organized realm of space known as the Vargr Extents. It is largely seen as barbarian space and unruly den of mercenaries and pirates. 
  
  The charisma of the underdog is your birthright. 
  
conversations.prefix: Vargr:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Your people developed from herbivore herds whose predator pressures  spawned a vengeful intelligence.
  
  Your four running legs and two arms lead humans to often slur your people with the label centaur. Your ancient ancestors fought out from under the tyranny of their carnivorous rivals. After wiping them out on Kirur, their homeworld, the K'Kree launched themselves into the stars with a collective mind to do the same to all carnivorous species in the galaxy. 
  
  Genocide and vegetarianism are your birthright.

conversations.value: Your people developed from subterranean omnivores. Being radial hexapods your are the most alien of the major races in known space.
  
  Your people don't use vocal communications. Touch, signing and technology provide all your people need to talk to one another. When interacting with vocal species audio broadcast tech known as a vocoder is used.
  
  By no means pacifists the Hive Federation was built on the industrial and military might of client minor races.
  
  Diplomatic manipulation via psychohistory is your birthright 
conversations.prefix: Hiver :
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Your humans heritage stems from the human diaspora offshoot planted on planet now known to the galaxy as Zhodane.
  You people have built one of the most harmonious interstellar empires and cultures ever known. The Zhodani are known for their high level of psionic ability and its formal integration into their society.
  
  When the 3rd Imperium encountered your people a series of conflicts known to history as the Frontier wars began and have never really ended.
  
  Psionic Governance is your birthright. 
  
  
conversations.prefix: Zodani:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Your people are a short, lithe, and agile race of Saurian with vestigial  wings. They are known to possess psionic as well as advanced technological aptitudes. Your people were the last to be recognized as a major race as they are scattered across known space but control none of it. Droyne worlds are most often shared with other races. 
  
  The Droyne homeworld is unknown though it is speculated it is probably in the Spinward Marches Sector of the Imperium, as this is where the greatest concentration of Droyne worlds are found.
  
  Mysterious origins and collective disinterest are your birthright.

  Be sure to give some perspective on how you learned it. Then give some detail on how it directly relates and to what degree when presenting the plan.
conversations.prefix: Uniquely Enabled :
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: This personal factor will cause trouble in achieving the goals of the plan. Its the crux of the matter. The rub. The anticipated problem that must be mitigated.
  
  Why are you inhibited in this way. To what degree is its severity. How do you plan on dealing with the frustration.
conversations.prefix: Hindrance:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: This bends the rules just enough to make sure you the player gets what you want out of this process.
  
  Weather it be a fudged roll or a plot twist that strains ones suspension of disbelief. Play this card when the Narrator is reasonably resisting some development that remains important to your enjoyment.
conversations.prefix: Inspiration :
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Your Universal Personality Profile is your identifying characteristics. It is liken onto a social security number except that this number actually describes you. It primarily develops just after puberty. In a ubiquitous and intuitively interfaced panopticon like the Imperium your Strength, Dexterity, Endurance, Intelligence, Education and Social standing are all matters of public record and constantly surveilled.
  
  Which of these are promising? which of these disappointing? How? Why?

conversations.prefix: Primary Education:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: There was a moment, that first realization. Back when you had few words to describe it. You were different from other people and they were afraid.
  
  What convinced them you were Afflicted? How did they react? 
conversations.prefix: When you knew...:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: ..the probable causes were dismissed. Something was disrupting Elio's phenotypical expression in a disruptive manner. When all environmental causes were ruled out only genetic precursors were left as an explanation. Finding that cause was proving difficult. So difficult that people were beginning to talk. 
conversations.prefix: That formative conflict...:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: It was apparent from your first years that you knew how to laugh off an upset, revel in intoxicating joy and infect others with your mischief.
  
  Even through the twin storms of your symptom's onset and the legal troubles that followed you remained a bright star around which everyone spun and smiled.  
  
  When the news came that you'd most likely not survive your 20th birthday your ability to make your loved ones smile through their tears remained remarkable. 
conversations.prefix: Carouse-2:

conversations.value: Your Mother could not accept your condition without someone to blame. So she did the only thing she knew how to, she litigated. Being eager to please you did your best to learn how to be useful.

conversations.value: Elio spent a year in bed rest with no other company than his family and the tutors for which his father spared no expense. The emotional cost of his seclusion was terrible enough to bear and then the truly bad news came. The Physicars did not expect Elio to live beyond the age of 20. What was Elio studying at the time of the diagnosis? Assuming the crushing news doesn't kill him, how did his study interests change?
conversations.prefix: School of Hard Knocks.:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Biochemistry, epigenetics, neural genesis. You took particular interest in any subject that could possibly shed light on your worsening condition. 
conversations.prefix: Applied Biological Sciences-0:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: The hormonal maelstrom that is puberty is particularly maladaptive to the untrained psion. Imperium medicine prescribes a steady dose of denial and an exercise regimen. Its been found that if, in the end, the patient's affliction can be sublimated away then rigorous occupational therapy of the body and mind at this particular juncture can do wonders of mitigating permanent disability. Which of your characteristics responded to the therapy. Which did not.
conversations.prefix: Personal Development :
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Poetry, music, dance, exposition, debate, singing you have a knack for capturing and entertaining an audience.
  
  Your first real accomplishment in this regard was the publishing of a book while you were Afflicted on Luna. The book was a surprising success that launched you and your cowriter into the public sphere as cautionary tales against the chauvinistic values surrounding the Solmani party line on all things Zhodani.
conversations.prefix: Performance-1:

conversations.value: You can sense the active use of psionics as visible light and warmth. 
  
  The color and intensity varies with the psionic discipline and power of the source.
  
  The effective distance and ability to detect subtler uses or even latent ability is a function of greater skill.

conversations.value: Elio's first real friend, crush and collaborator. 
  
  And now she was leaving. Elio could see she wanted to go. To have a chance to return to the consulate after spending a year visiting the Imperium's most important worlds. All as part of a mission to bring their message to an audience orders of magnitude larger than the one it found here in the Sol system. 
  
  Who could blame her? 
conversations.prefix: Stlfitsia:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Stlfitsia left you a part of her self you. Buried in your mind is a presence. A warm and encouraging reminder of her. It never speaks but it looks on as an additional conscience. Constantly reminding you to trust in your abilities and to accept your burdens.
  
  It also will lead you back to her one day.
conversations.prefix: Che'eld Mind :
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You have the ability to reach into the substance of your self and other conscious sophonts and create psychosomatic effects. 
  
  With this ability you can promote or depress any natural process to amazing effect. The degree to which you can make changes depends first upon your skill (rank value) and then your mental state. The more aggravated or adrenalized you are the more powerful and random the effect.

conversations.value: As Elio's majority approaches his ailment fades and he grows restless. He is eager to do something with his newly won lease on life. What will he do? His parents all have hopes that he will follow in their footsteps. Someone on his treatment team tells him he'd make a good Medical professional at least once a diurn. Will he chase after Stlfitsia? All are possible. The real question now though is will he have the patience to make his full recovery look natural?

conversations.value: It's not over yet. You're still breathing, you're still alive. Struggle just a little more. Time waits for no one, move forward.
conversations.prefix: Not Over:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Elio had been literally bouncing to be free of Luna's embrace for months now. The Che'eld in his mind was a much more patient creature. Knowing he could just be done with his discomfort and recovery was a constant temptation. The Che'eld cautioned, soothed and generally held him back to a healing pace that could be believed as natural to his care takers.
  
  That patience did not extend to the other ideas his family had for him. They each wanted Elio to stay close, protected, to remain ascetic and conservative, academic and studious. That may have suited the Elio they thought they raised. This Elio had no patience for such.
