====== PLAYABLE BETA AGE CHARACTERS ======

{{ :102_pnp_overviewplayablecharacters_illustration_scenic2fd.jpg?direct&200|}}
===== Introduction =====
All officially released [[pen_and_paper_adventures| Beta Age adventures]] of [[start|One Hundred and Two Lightyears Away]] take place under the umbrella of the [[office_for_special_operations|Office for Special Operations (OfSO)]].  

Founded in September 2626 by [[ezrah_scherkenstein|Ezrah Scherkenstein]] and headquartered in [[New Kourou|New Kourou]], the OfSO operated as a lean, ledger-driven private investigation bureau serving the settlements of the [[asari|Asari]] and [[ralar|Ralar Regions]]. Its mandate included discreet investigations, cold-case work, covert surveillance, fugitive tracking, and protective escort missions. Although the OfSO lacked formal authority, a quiet information exchange existed between Ezrah and a small circle of [[guarding_troopers|Guarding Troopers]].  

Officially dissolved in 2631, the network persists informally into the[[the_gamma_age| Gamma Age]] — hidden behind botany covers, borrowed desks, and old connections. Because the OfSO relied primarily on short-term operatives rather than permanent staff, all playable Beta Age characters are freelancers hired on a contract basis.  Their motivations differ. Their loyalties are loose. Their skills are anything but ordinary.

This page provides an overview of all currently playable Beta Age characters, linking to their full biographies and offering direct download access to their character sheets.
