ChrSch / Aizashi Nobara

Welcome @ChrSch

This thread is for your character creation. Take a look at welcome and character creation.

If you have any questions you can post them here or if you think they are general on the Q&A

I can walk you through things. Read over the topics posted above and review the standard message to becomes from one of the site admins below.
I can give you a quick intro if you give a bit of info on your background/interest in RPG

That sounds good thanks.
I've been playing RPGs of all kinds in video game format. And have always been interested in games like DnD, but never really had a chance to play. I was aware of forum-based games when I was younger, but since most of them were in English I didn't get anything out of them, since I didn't speak any back then.
I've been following channels like Critical Role, Viva la Dirtleague, and Table Stories for a while.
Now I finally got over myself and decided to actually try and play myself, rather than just lurking.

Hi, if something in my character doesn't fit anywhere, let me know, and I'll change it.

A couple things on your character
+ Which sense did you want Aizashi to have heightened? I assume smell
+ I have all characters start with a minor magic item, see character creation for details, that is useful but has no mechanical advantage (+damage, invisibility, etc)
+ Even with martial arts you may want a weapon. With martial arts having a ranged weapon might be nice. Ex : throwing starts/darts/chakra

When you are ready and happy with the character go ahead and post in character (see the character creation thread) on the "Who's Who" thread and the Preferred Posting Rate survey

When both of those are done I will start Aizashi in a story

PS : Nice Avatar :)

Okay, I'll get right on that to fix that. I left the weapon open because I wasn't sure if a ranged weapon would be allowed alongside martial artist.

And, thanks :))

Martial Artist is explicitly in addition to the base weapon proficiency. In fact, choosing ranged with Martial Artist makes a ton of sense as you Unarmed proficiency should cover melee just fine. Not only is it allowed, it's a great choice!

Okay, that makes sense.
In my character sheet it says:
You can select Unarmed as a Weapon Group to be proficient with. You must select a particular martial arts attack as your Mastered Weapon.

Are those the ones from the tiny dungeons player handbooks? Or is that something for when proficiency has gone up far enough?

"Mastered" means you can test with advantage, 3d6 instead of the standard 2d6. Ignore it for now as I have newcomers begin without any mastered weapons or attacks. But if you stick around you git a new trait or mastery pretty quick

Okay. Perfect :)

@Psybermagi has to answer that one.

I am not sure where that description is drawn from. That's not how it works "by the book".

In TD2e, you can't explicitly choose Unarmed as a weapon group proficiency. You can only get it through the Martial Arts trait. You can't have any Mastery with unarmed in TD2e. Instead you can gain Martial Arts Disciplines as a prestige trait. (And they are cool! They are worth getting if you take Martial Arts first.)

However, other games in the Tiny D6 family do change things up some. In Tiny Supers, you can take Unarmed as a weapon group proficiency and can get Mastery, too. (The mastery there is typically listed as "Haymaker", which is just their big punch.) Maybe that's the idea of where the text you mention is taken from. In that case, the mastery would be "punch", "haymaker", "roundhouse kick", "karate chop", or something like that.

Do note that even if you can get Unarmed proficiency without Martial Artist, the trait is still worthwhile. This is because if you use Martial Artist, you do get that other proficiency, you get that one reroll a day, and you unlock the ability to take those Martial Arts Disciplines. And, you can probably still get Mastery in "karate chop" later, too, after gaining experience.

Done and done.
I added "sensitive nose" or should it be sensitive smell? "Binding Bands" into the gear. Added Darts as a weapon and voted on the post rate :)

Thanks for the info. I'll keep it in mind and an eye open.

@Psybermagi
will you let me know where to go to start the ball rolling or if I'm still missing something?

You're good I just had to get through my existing games, then work. I will get you started tonight. I will drop an into here and point you to the active story via a link.

Okay, great. Just wanted to make sure that I got everything right so far :)

Aizashi locks in on the smell and starts to follow it. Remembering that there were reports of strange things happening he decided to be a little cautious about it.
