Rehab (Grimdark)

Rehab
Hey Guys!
I'm making a more story based grimdark PnP.

Intro:
War cripples and maims ponies in ways you can’t imagine. Sometimes it’s physical, sometimes it’s mental. Here at Fluttershy‘s Mercy - Center for Rehabilitation and Stabilization, we’ll make sure all your medical needs are tended to and help our fighting mares and stallions return to civilian life. Thanks to our wealth of medical expertise and equipment, including our new state of the art MWT Cybernetic Limb Replacement Service, you’ll be walking out of here right as rain before you know it. Visitors are always welcome!

But Rehabilitation might work better if you don’t have to do it alongside zebra…

System and Characters Creation/Improvement:
Spoiler: show
I’d like to use my own modification to the revised ruleset. It’s basically the same thing but skills are more specific, and gaining experience/upgrading skills is different. (no Character Levels)
Example: Because you used a rifle often I won’t let you level up your Lockpick-Skill, but the Rifle-Skill. However, if you would already have the MagicRifle-Skill (a related skill) high, you can level (regular) Rifles-Skill up much easier.
At the end of every session the GM will give out skillpoints in the area the character has used them, or was trained in (by book, PC or NPC)
Character Creation will be done together with GM as well, and you get as much as your backstory is plausible.
As the game is centered in a Rehab hospital I also will hand out some disabilities, like a character walking with a limp (permanent minus agility), or having sleep disorders (usually degree of sleep deprivation), or other things. They of course get something in return then. (They might also be able to get healed/stabilized/cyberponied)
Starting Gear: nothing/personal items/stuff they let you take into a hospital
Characters Profile (food for thought):
Spoiler: show
soldiers?, grew up in a nation at war, who may have enlisted for the perks of education when having served, or for whatever reason you can think of. Naturally things didn’t go perfectly. The character now has either a psychological issue because of the things he/she saw, or actually got wounded.
want a zebra? it changes minimally to them having ended up as prisoners of war.
want a griffin? the same rules can apply with them might have been griffin mercenaries (backstory can be that they were properly schooled for fighting, but then they have to have some serious issues that needs mending, or else their pride wouldn’t make then go into a hospital.
don’t want a soldier?, you still can have a hospital visitor in the hospital or a staff member.

Color me intrigued. I want to see where this goes, especially since it's on game times I can actually play.

I could probably join, but I'd need someone to explain IRC to me I've tried to join games in the past and literally that's the only thing that's stopped me.

f1r3w4rr10r, G-man64, Strawberry Fields, Jarulso, Tennisdude9993, and another friend i already recruited, that makes a full set even though I hardly revealed anything of the story
#rehab_group and #rehab_ooc on canternet open their doors
I wrote everyone of you a pn with my skype acc, we should talk about your character creation (but I believe/hope everyone of you already has a little something in mind)

@G-man64
It's not hard, any information you might need i can explain to you over skype

@Jarulso
happy to help ^^

@Undostrescuatro
that's too bad, if nessecarry i can always move the timeslot a few hours back and forth
we would have to move it later then though for Jarulso
I sent you a pn with my skype too
