Captain Selection[]
All 6 Possible Captains
When beginning a new adventure, you are first prompted to pick a captain. The options are out of the 6 main characters; Emmet Ellis, Deedee Dawkins, Baby Bronco, Maegan Mann, Tom Thomson and April Angelle. Each have ranked attributes, as well as unique Perks and Goals. These affect different aspects of scavenging and survival.
Attributes[]
As well as providing advantages to decision making in survival, Attributes (Agility, Intelligence and Strength) correlate to different factors of scavenging. Intelligence - Higher intelligence grants additional prep time while scavenging to plan and get a grasp of the layout of the ship.
Agility - translates to how fast your character will move when scavenging. The higher the captains agility, the quicker you move.
Strength - the Strength attribute affects the number of inventory spaces the player has while scavenging.
Perks and Goals[]
Once you have completed scavenging, the captain will have a perk unique to them that will help the crew survive. Often, the captains perk helps to work toward the captains goal. You work toward your captains goals over multiple in game days. Once completed, your captain will gain the Fulfilled trait/status.
