Bounty Hunters Start - ChatGPT Inspired

In 1 collection by Dr. Igor Dolvich
Lore Friendly Role-Playing Experience v1.9.7.2.1 (2025)

Description
A New Gamestart based on a conversation with ChatGPT. I utilized the program to create a baseline of characters (4 starting characters with specialized skills, a Martial Artist, Two Rangers, and a Heavy Armor tank). Inspired by the Bounty Hunter Armor mod.

I tried to balance out the starting skills in the low 20-30s range to allow for a quick start but not be overly out of balance. The skills have a modifier of +/- 8 skill points in each stat, so you may get lucky and have a high 30s skill set in a particular skill or a low-medium 10s. Specializiation is slightly buffed to account for this offset (Example: Martial Artist will start in the mid-high 20s, before offset. You might get lucky and have a 35+ martial arts skill or an ~18).


Overview:
  • You'll randomly spawn in a choice of five locations, to include: Mongrel, Sho-Battai, Stack, Squin, and Blister Hill.

  • I attempted to balance out money by giving a random amount of Cats, but the function in FCS does not seem to work unfortunately. Money was generated based on a response from ChatGPT with a dice roll. I found it to be relatively fair to account for "Cost of Living" and give you a small amount of cats to buy food and some bed rolls or whatever you'd like (Start with ~2789 cats). You'll start with the gear you'd probably use for a short while.

  • You'll start with a random assortment of weapons based on how I viewed each starting class based on ChatGPT responses. "Jax", the Leader of the group, starts with a Ranger bow and random straight swords. "Ava", starts with a Ranger bow and random Blunt weapons. "Korgoth", starts with heavy armor, a Heavy Weapon or Polearm, and a "Mercenary Banner" that increases combat skills by +1 with a very small storage slot (carry your bandages and splints, or some meat). And finally, "Zara", who is your lead martial artist, who starts with some decent martial arts gear and has a relatively high chance of "Upgrading" to High quality gear (25%).

In "Discussions", I'll copy and paste the ChatGPT sessions for anyone curious at the inspiration.


Do note, the characters (names, races, etc.) are immaterial, you don't need to be a Greenlander, Shek, or anything. It was just the basis to allow for me to expand upon the ideas presented to me by my experience, such as generating a head cannon backstory for each character to develop what stats they'd be good at, etc.


Each mod in the Required Section is somewhat needed, as I pulled items across the 3 mods to give each character a unique set of armor and weapons. Example would be Korgoth's backpack which is a Mercenary Banner from the Merc Armor Bundle mod.

@Luna

Lol to be fair this was mostly an experiment to see how well ChatGpt knew the lore, etc. of Kenshi like 2 years ago. It worked pretty well at the time, to a somewhat surprising degree

ah okey thanks a lot

But, if you load it without the attached 3 mods, you'll just get an error and you might be missing random pieces of clothing on your characters (boot, or your jacket, etc.). Which I suppose you can RP as you getting robbed just before starting lol

@Planklillo Unfortunately one way or another you'll need all 3, as this mod references all 3 mods in the required section. I'll need to make a Vanilla only one that doesn't require the 3.

@friendlygermansoldat329 It was more of an experiment to try using ChatGPT to see if I could brainstorm a new gamestart I wanted for myself lol. Let me know if you try it out!

I personally like using this start as it helps alleviate the very slow start while not giving you insanely good gear, items, etc and is still pretty challenging.
