Are the talents what is listed below the class description?

That is correct. So, for instance, the Rogue (if that is still what you are looking at) can chose from:
• Backstabbing: Silently incapacitate a foe while unseen. If risk is unavoidable, roll an extra d12.
• Blending In: Be unseen in crowds & darkness.
• Fast Talking: The gullible or unwary believe or do what you say, at least briefly.
• Intrusion: When bypassing locks or traps, treat disasters as setbacks, setbacks as success.
• Jack of All Trades: Roll at least a d8 for all mundane tasks outside combat.
• Light Fingers: Pickpocket and palm small objects in plain view, no roll needed.
• Tumbling: Falls that hurt others only slow you. Recover instantly when knocked down.

The Characteristics are the list that follows that note about "either increase a Skillset or gain 2 Characteristics":

• Bestial: Attack with fang or claw.
• Dark-dwelling: Sense perfectly in darkness.
• Fire-breathing: Spray an area before you.
• Magical: Take 1 incantation. Cast without risk of side effects, lasting while you concentrate.
• Mechanical: No need for food or air. Must be repaired, not healed. Limbs break as defense.
• Small: Helps evade, hide, and seem harmless.
• Thick-skinned: While your guard is up, deflect attacks from all but heavy weapons & magic.
• Unsleeping: Rest awake. Ignore Sleep magic.

We, the players, can not see Jasra.

In order for the other players to be able to see the contents of the character sheets, the sheet need to be Added to the Library.
You can do that by marking the grey 'note' icon that says Add to Library on your character list.

Red means others can see the sheet.

Else tell us about the character.

Just to clarify a few things before we get started:

Sounds like Garrett and Jasra were kids that grew up on the streets. How old are they now? Are they still kids/teens or are they adults now? (EDIT: just read Garrett is 20 yo). I'll say Asha looks like she's in her early 20s too. Asha has been living on the streets for the last year. Is it safe to assume that we banded together recently to better survive? Perhaps Ane is our ring leader?

How does Dhakan's "Sinbad"-like character fit in? Did he lose his ship somehow, effectively bankrupt, starting from scratch on the street too. That would fit in with the rest of us easily.

How is Ginseng related to our group? Was he a member of our little gang as well (perhaps his connection to Big Zhad is how we got some of our previous jobs and why Big Zhad trusts us?) or do we not know him at all and he simply the target of our current mission?

Oh also, @mathias0077 is Garrett a different ancestry than human based on the characteristics you picked. For example, some kind of underground-dwelling race/species, or did he develop these characteristics from years as a street urchin.

Yup! Just tardy! Buzruc bin Shahryar submitted. Warrior! have I created him correctly?

How's this sound? He's gambled away his ship and crew the night after a particularly spectacular failure. His sure thing turned into an unmitigated disaster. The goods were not unguarded. Three crew were captured and imprisioned leaving the remaining 12 happy for new leadership. AND every shows up at the docks, the guards seem to feel him coming! Drunk though he was, he's sure that Layth ibn Kahlan is a cheater. There is no way that he could have lost at dice that night! His were loaded afterall! Aground with only meagre means left to him, Buzruc, aims to gain himself another ship and crew and show that Layth who is the real Rogue of the Waves. But first, money. ...peferably easy money.

(in RP) ... Getting there ... will require you to ascend two stories ... to the top of the sabban wall, then follow the sun-seared wall-top road to Osiir. ...

What is our main opposition to doing this? Is it hard to get up there? Are we not allowed on the sabban walls? Can we talk/trick our way past guards or do we need to avoid them?

Ane has no plans —nor desire— to go through the sewers (yuck!)... but others might suggest it. Are we 'required' to use the sabban walls for some reason?

I did not actually mean to roll in the post above. That was for illustration in the screenshot. :)

But it does raise the point. We don't care about the 8 I rolled with Reason and Help, we only care about the individuality dice.

tibbius, you can use the Advanced Rules Definitions below to tell the system not to show us the total, just the dice, and also to color our successes and failures. Feel free to pick and choose whichever bits you like.


{
    "diceRules": [
        {
            "rolled": "d",
            "autoSort": true
        },
        {
            "rolled": "d",
            "ge": 5,
            "highlight": "success",
            "hideTotal": true
        },
        {
            "rolled": "d",
            "le": 2,
            "highlight": "fail",
            "hideTotal": true
        }
    ]
}

... or the probably more elegant:


{
    "diceRules": [
        {
            "rolled": "d",
            "natural": ">=1",
            "autoSort": true,
            "hideTotal": true
        },
        {
            "rolled": "d",
            "natural": ">=5",
            "highlight": "success"
        },
        {
            "rolled": "d",
            "natural": "<=2",
            "highlight": "fail"
        }
    ]
}
