+You have 2 options to build the character:
-   *Select one of 350 point [[starrangers:character_training_packages#enchanced_templates]], reduce DX and IQ by 1, take 8 point version of [[home world]], [[starrangers:basic_bionic_enchantment]] and use a total of 19 points from [[starrangers:character_creation#suggested_background_0-60]] and [[starrangers:character_creation#basic_skills_background_0-60]]
+    * Sidekick: Build as normal character with 200 point Basic character package, except you get no Special background[300], no Special power[-25] and 2 less Additional training packages and 25 points less for the suggested background/background for a total of 400 point character.
+    * Random Cannon fodder: As above, but you roll the basic training(200) and get a -25 point Random power balance and one more 25 point training package.
+=====Using=====
+You play the character normally and gain points normally, but never put more than 1 point/session into the store as you will not get the big drain in points from the store at the end of act 2 as you are considered support.
+===== Death and new low power characters =====
+If your low point character dies you start again at 400+**FULL** earned points on the character sheet, but have to play the 400 point character as such as the previous earned points go to a special store named "Previous character earned" that is not usable in any way until you do the switching to a NPC.
+===== Switching =====
+When a NPC that you want to play is in the party you can take it as your character in a one time operation. You will then at that point get 800 points+**FULL** earned points from your temporary character instead of the normal 800+2/3 earned.
+After this switch the new character advances normally and any further deaths and changes cause normal point loss.
