Session Zero/Character Creation

Looking over the Artificer some more, think I'll skip it. Was thinking it's more like the FC Tinkerer AB, which per SW Ebberon is strictly forbidden.

Think I'll focus on a Rogue/Soulknife mix. Should be submitted by tonight or tomorrow.

@ctme2000 Sounds good.

Looking at getting Dane Gareth transferred over to a GP sheet from Savaged.us. :) In the process these are some background points I've come up with...

Just so I'm clear, his mother was the head of the Dragonmarked House? The leader of House Orien? Kwanti d'Orien?

@Knighthawke I'm also playing a dragonmarked character, but low ranked in the house. Would it be fun/interesting if she was also of House Orien? Then we would have the prince of the house and a lowly soldier.
At the moment she is of House Tharashk (Mark of finding)

That dynamic sounds awesome!

@Knighthawke House Orien is based in Aundair, in a city called Passage. No objection to you being born in Sharn. Why was your character born there and not in Passage? :-)

@Knighthawke @ctme2000 Need any help with your characters?

I completely missed that. :) Although, perhaps he was born there because his mother was visiting his father who was there for something wizard-like and she didn't expect to give birth before they got home?

I submitted Dane Gareth. The sheet itself is still WIP, but most of the stats/skills are there.

For the Beast Master edge, regarding the magebred template, should I just pick an animal from the FC bestiary to apply it to?

@ctme2000 or from the Savage Worlds bestiary.

Thanks. Almost done. I've built an assassin style rogue, but what's the viability of leaning more toward an Indiana Jones rogue-ish type, in particular if I took the edges Treasure Hunter and Trap Sense edges? They sound cool thematically, but will they actually be viable in the game mechanically? Not sure how much we'll be dealing with treasure and traps.

There will be both treasure and traps. I wouldn't call this an old school dungeon crawl, but we're definitely going underground at some point.

Two Rogue types in the game then :)

Woo hoo, roguesies!

Sounds good, I'll stick with the assassin for now and build out into those when/if we advance.

I'll transfer him into GP and have a backstory later today.

Character submitted, lemme know if I should change anything.

Kyras Blackthorne, Ky to his friends (though he has none). Born in Sharn, orphaned and penniless, he scrapped his way through, catching the eye of a famous thieves guild after he successfully swiped the pockets of its leader. With no real choice in joining, they made use of his filching fingers and smarts, working his way up from burgles to back alley bloodshed. The guild eventually loaned out his talents to assist in the Last War. It was at this time that the headaches started, culminating into a botched assassination attempt that ended with Kyras thrusting a blade made of pure energy into the General's wive's throat, instead of the man himself. He barely escaped, were it not for these new found powers.

A few years passed. He has a better grasp of his psionic abilities, and now works for the House of Vadalis. For a critical mission well done, they gift him a black jaguar, specially bred. Ky doesn't mind, feeling a kinship with the creature.

Looks like everyone is wrapping up or done with their characters. Shall we begin?

That works for me.

Ready!
