So far we have:
Gerald Eskot, who is a shooter with some outdoor skills
Felix Dawson, an axeman with thieving skills
Hugh Ashfield, a wealthy swashbuckler type

Review of Felix Dawson
All good, except for secondary attributes missing:
- Pace 6
- Charisma -2 (from Hindrances)
- Parry 5 = 2+1/2 Fighting
- Toughness 5 = 2 +1/2 Vigor

Review of Hugh Ashfield
- Your second Edge is missing the name (Acrobat)
- You need spent 3.5 edges (Florentine, Acrobat, Attribute raise, 0.5 for add'l cash), but only have enough for 2.5 (Human, Major hindrance, 0.5 for 1 minor hindrance).

I also took 13 skill points, which should free up 1 additional edge, correct?

While there is no rule for that easily found in the Solomon Kane book, the math holds (1 edge = 2 skills) and I'm okay with it.

Oh ok, sorry, thought you had outlined that mechanic above. But ok, we're all good then. I was trying to employ a sort-of a Cthulhu-like mechanic, where a younger PC might have fewer learned skills but higher stats. And Hugh is supposed to be younger. But the "Young" hindrance was not quite what I was going for.

Looks like combat is covered, would a support/smart medical tinker step on anyone else's lane? Might look at Leadership path also.

That sounds promising, Remnant and should add some great flavor to the group.

ok submitting Ataan

Ok, so I became inspired to go a different route with my character. Let me present the puritan swashbuckler Praise God Waterston:

And, in case anyone is asking, the inspiration for this was indeed a character from the Baroque Trilogy by Neal Stephenson. An excellent series, if somewhat dense.

The stats are almost identical, so hopefully no issues there, but take a look and let me know your thoughts.

Qralloq gave me approval to make a sorcerer, primarily invested in smarts. Remnant let me know what you came up with and maybe we can collaborate or check out our sheets to find out where we can diversify.

Also on my sheet: should be done soon, maybe not today, likely by friday.

Sure Ataan Sezen is the mender of many things my friend; men, machines, marriages, it's good stuff so don't throw away especially broken man we give him spirits to perk up if all else fails.

I've approved the two new characters but I'll double check the stats later today.

Turns out I had alot more time today finishing up my character then I initially thought (except for backstory but that too will arrive).

@remnant your sheet isn't public btw, I can't spy on it.

I had accepted Remnants character into the game, so even if it was public, you can't see it now, if that works that way I think it does.

Accepted Somebox's too

Review is Ataan Sezen
- looks like two too many edges (Brawny, First Strike, Healer, Investigator, and an attribute raise; should just have 1 human, and two from the hindrances)

Review of Cecily Meldrum
- I think you're short 1 skill raise; you get 15, you traded 4 for two attribute raises, and you have 10, I think - Oh,I see, you took the extra cash. Okay, all good!
Oct 10, 2019 4:43 am
Wait I didn't take extra cash. Did I calculate my supplies wrong?
Edit: You can PM on discord the details if it's a lot to explain btw.

10 Spellcasting components (Burn 1 per spell or suffer -1 to mod. Each costs .5 pounds)
As 10 x .5 = £5, this is what I assumed you spent the point on.

My apologies, was making a porter type but realize were already combat heavy.
Oct 10, 2019 4:34 pm
Ahh I see the problem. I start the game with 10 components for free (page 100 under "components") as part of taking the sorcery background.

Sorry if I took someone character concept lol I'm not 100% sure what I am doing yet lol
