Another option for developing a unique
character is to take a look at your own life. We all know someone
from our lives that we'd consider “unique,” for whatever reasons.
Why not borrow some of these unique behaviors or backgrounds and
convert them over to the science-fiction setting for your character?
For example, if you know someone at work who shows up late all the
time and claims their OCD is the reason (and gets away with it), your
game character could be similar, either with a genuine problem or
with con-artist tendencies who games the system to his or her
advantage. You do need to be careful, though, because some
personalities aren't fun to be around, and role-playing these types
of people might ruin everyone's fun. If you know someone who is an
aloof, narcissistic megalomaniac with a perpetual victim mentality,
role-playing that can certainly make an interesting character, but it
might turn the other players against you. Unless you're the MC/Game
Master acting out an NPC (who might be the antagonist or villain in
the plot), you may want to reconsider playing a dictator-type
character in your group!
As seven alien races struggle to co-exist in an uneasy alliance, the Inter-Stellar Union sends Union Guard agents on missions to preserve the crucial balance. These specialized operatives must do what regional security cannot, dealing with smugglers, pirates, terrorists, and even greater challenges in order to bring stability to a universe that needs it desperately. Without the Union Guard, the races will not be prepared to face a looming alien threat they can only hope to defeat together.
