Status: at one point of status, you have an id card and a file in some dusty computer that says you exist. at 2-3 you are a low-medium level person on some world: you've got a birth certificate, a credit card (which means you can get into a bar with a bouncer), etc. At 4, you're a white-collar level person: your name comes up on an internet search on the first page, you're on international registries, and you can get appointments/reservations/etc. at upscale places. No one will look at you funny walking around the deepest corp-zone, or in a lycurgan city. at 5 you're important to somebody who's got real power, and it shows (even if you don't have any yourself): you'll probably get into clubs without a cover, and low lifes will clear the sidewalk for you. at 6, you're a low level exec, a low level lycurgan, or an Aenean officer. At 7, you're a minor lycurgan aristocrat, a corp exec, or a party member of Aeneas. At 5 or above, nobody but a bat-shit crazy cracked out fringe-pirate from Castor would even try to sell you into slavery (cause there'd probably be more money in turning him over than accepting the deal). At one or below, watch your back: they do occasionally take people off the streets when supply is low... No more than one at 8 without GM permission. None at 9 or above without GM permission.
Focus: This is the Grit of the Character: it represents how much they can push themselves in the pursuit of their beliefs. Based on the Prologue and the background you subsequently write, the GM will assign you a focus rating, with a 10 level hierarchy of focus that determines in what sorts of actions you may use your focus. If you fail on Focused actions, you may lose Focus and/or Path. Path: The Gemini is a strange place, and not everyone values the same things. Based on the Prologue and the background you subsequently write, the GM will assign you a path and a level along that path, with a 10 level hierarchy of sins that you must adhere to. If you fail to do so, you may lose path and/or focus.
Advantages/Disadvantages: Natural abilities/traits that are not easily characterized as above.
