Page "Traveller (role-playing game)" Paragraph 12

Characters range from " everyday Joes in space " to crack mercenary teams, and the game often draws from pulp science-fiction for its aliens ( the Aslan are similar to Kzin, the Hivers to Pierson's Puppeteers, and so on ).

Some character " classes " are military-oriented, while others are civilian.

A character can be human, robot, alien, or of a genetically engineered species.
