Obligation #1: Criminal: The character has a criminal record, or was accused of a crime, and is somehow embroiled in the legal system. Obligation may be settled by paying ongoing legal costs, making attempts to bury evidence, or efforts to prove his innocence.

Obligation #2 - Favor: The PC owes a big favor. Perhaps officials looked the other way when he smuggled in goods, or a friend got him out of prison. Regardless, the favors are stacking up, and soon he's going to be asked to pay them back or return the favor. This favor may be called in a little at a time, prolonging the Obligation.

Freedom: The character desires the freedom to do what they want. This could be a passion to overcome one or more of their current Obligations or to see others freed from the shackles of bondage and servitude in all its forms.

Local Politics: The character supports some particular political cause, typically within a single planet or system. The character actively gets involved in campaigns and candidates, and may even fight on the behalf of a political organization.
