Celebrity

Whether you’re a celebrated chef, musical superstar, or popular influencer, you’re famous. Your name and face are across billboards, advertisements, and merchandise galore, and people love—and love to hate—you for it.

Did you come to the public’s attention by winning a famous cooking competition, putting out an innovative new album, or just being wealthy and controversial? Did you step gracefully down from the pedestal you were put on, or were you pushed? Do you want to return to prominence or would you prefer a quiet retirement?

Feature:
Star Power

Unless you put active effort into disguising yourself, you’re instantly recognized on your home planet, as well as a number of settled planets equal to half your Charisma modifier (round down). These locations must have access to the network that made you famous. Work with the Narrator to make sure your selections make sense for the story being told. While at one of these locations, you and your companions are treated to a rich lifestyle by a fan, as long as you indulge them with appearances at parties and the like. Being recognized can be a double-edged sword, however. There may be no such thing as bad publicity, but there’s no end of bad intentions.

Adventures and Advancement

You might not be actively pursuing the limelight right now, but you still have influence that grows with every mission you undertake. Powerful figures will seek you out to endorse or decry certain people or policies as the media clamors for your opinions. The more you accept these jobs and lean into your role, the more well known you become until your face is seen across the galaxy. You gain the benefits of your Star Power feature on every settled planet.
