In the year 2034... Mining can be dangerous, being crushed, suffocated, or trapped and starved to death are only the usual risks. You could also be redirected into the sewer and drowned, shot by other rogue miners, or eaten alive by monsters from the depths. But they pay is good, the right merchants will pay handsomely for minerals or metals, and the wrong merchants will pay the gear you steal from other miners. To start your life as a miner fill out the character sheets below.
Also spend you starter money for gear at Godmund's Shop. (Note: Weapons will stay in your items list and not under arms until you choose to equipped them)

There is a circular tunnel leading down, with a metal ladder painted red. After climbing down you find yourself in a small room with walls of welded brass. There are two heavy-duty doors leading out of the room.

There's no response but the door across from you opens with a sighing sound. There is a icy breeze coming from the door.

You enter a armory, a small almost pantry sized room with two shelves covered in weapons. Mostly the room is full of cheap carbines and shotguns but several high quality items stand out. Namely, a commando knife, some carbon-fiber gloves and a weapon-suppressor.

I take quick glance for other people before taking the commando knife, carbon-fiber gloves and the weapon-suppressor.

The darts are only wood and so cant actually cause much direct damage to the metal door, but they stick into it and the spare energy half smashes the door of its hinges. There's a girlish giggling sound from behind the door...

As you stuff the stuff into your pack a inebriated man stumbles into the armory and collapses overturning a crate and spilling rifle-ammunition everywhere.

"Who is in there?" Ilden calls. "I- ...We have you surrounded!" He says, considering backing out. I came here for ore, nothing else. Can I use the machine-pistol? would I know how?

I quickly attach the silencer to my Gorgon and shoot the drunk man in the between his eyes.

Okay Mr. Triggerhappy, you preform the shot without any problems and shove the drunk guy off his mortal coil. A tag on the mans coat claims he was Daniel Cyser.

You'd probably be able to figure it out, it's just like firing a regular pistol when used for short rounds of fire.

You empty the mans pockets and find the following: x1 Key card x3 wooden Casino tokens x4 $1 pieces x1 .18 Magnum cartridge magazine
This is not really a tycoon sort of game, but I may make it so that you can hire NPC mercenaries, miner, medics. If you do plan to join do you want to mine inside city limits, outside city limits, or in the forest?
