DiD Idea Bouncing?
Here's something I think may be an idea - a thread where people can post together half-formed ideas, or requests for things they would like to see done, so that people who want to write DiDs but haven't gotten solid ideas for them can browse and collect together ideas. May be best to keep them short and sweet, so people can glean ideas for what they plan to do. So, to pool some things together to start with, I'll add a few of my own recent scenario ideas:
A Teladi-based campaign in which the main character is the victim of a scandal or similar event and loses the majority of their assets, and is forced to rebuild their corporation from the ground up.
A Split-based campaign in which the main character is from a minor family or particularly downtrodden family, thrust into the spotlight by his superior combat or strategic ability. (Much like the Savage Split start)
A Pirate-based campaign in which the main character is forced into a life of crime by circumstance, such as running from his own government, and detests the life he has been forced to lead.
An Argon-based campaign in which the main character failed to gain himself a role in the Argon Navy, and so instead decides to seek his fortune and prove his worth as a soldier-of-fortune.
A Terran-based campaign in which the main character opposes the ATF regime, and is forced to flee the Terran sectors and seek refuge in amongst the commonwealth territories to escape the wrath of Gestapo-esque internal police force who wishes to silence his dissidence.
Hope these can give people some ideas, and that others will add to them!

Sorry, were you expecting a witty one-liner?
I like the Terran idea. I might go with something like that after I'm done with my current DiD. If I can come up with a suitable character, that is.
I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of how awesome I am

i was going to do something like the Pirate one suggested, using unholy traitor start. i decided against it tho, because i wasnt sure if i could pull off a Paranid character...
only other idea i can think of is what i wanna use on my next one (if there is a next one) bankrupt assassin start. can only take combat missions, no plot, and can only be friends with Teladi, Pirate and Yaki. a character that just wants to watch the 'verse burn

I intend, during the next break in my current DiD, to play a totally honest Split Trader. A custom start using a Jaguar and Caiman, instead of the Humble Trader's Disco/Mercury Combo.
