Tacokarp's attempt at character creation

I hope I do not mess this up too badly

Character creation rolls

Ok max ballistic skill and good dex on a... boatman, im not sure if that's good or bad

i don't really know what im doing so feel free to correct me if im making a terrible mistake and i should just redo the entire character creation.

5 advances in agility

5 advances in Ranged(Bow), Gossip, Charm

3 advances Cool, Haggle, Evaluate

Talents: Doomed, Suave

mimic, flee! and very resilient it seems

Class talent: fisherman

ok i think that is all the rolling at least, i think i get an extra 120 xp for not rerolling

Yes, all the rolling is done, now you get 5 free advances in your starting career characteristics (I recommend upping your toughness and strength ti 30 if you can), and you get 40 free advances in your 8 starting skills, I suggest putting 5 advances in each, but you can do as you will do long as no skill begins with more than 10 advances before you spend any of your 120 XP.

I Doom your character thusly: "Be it stormy waters or tavern brawl, thine end will be a violent one!!!"

i can precisely do just that 30 str and tgh so i guess ill go with that! also if i have have 5 in each of my class starting skills can i advance my class immediately since i start with 100 xp?

Not quite yet. In order to advance to your next career tier, you must get all 3 of your starting career characteristics to 5 advances, you must have at least 5 advances in 8 career skills (which you have), and at least 1 talent in your current Tier/Level (which you do). So, you must get five advances in Strength, Toughness, and Agility first.

I would suggest if you want to get to a new career or rise to the second tier of this one as quick as you can, to go ahead and start putting your XP into your characteristics.

Alright! If you wouldn't mind could I ask some questions. In your honest opinion is my character built awfully, is this an awful class and talent selection, are they extremely mechanically non functional, basically did I mess up character creation in anyway because I basically just went with thr flow of what felt right to me athletics the time. I'm asking this so I can use this as a benchmark mark for future characters should I for some reason happen to need one looks around shiftly

It’s up to you! As this is your first time playing, I will allow you to roll 2 more times now, to see if you get something you like better, that will cost you half the 50 XP from class/career rolling, and you can, if you like switch some of your skills around for only 25 bonus XP. If this character dies in a way that satisfies the doom I gave him, then you’ll get a character with half his bonus XP, so I suggest just having fun as is, seeing if you like the character, if you die, a new one will come.

hmm we have a wizard, a dwarf warrior and slayer, a priest and then we have a boatman. That is kinda hilarious we have an actual dnd party and the person they hire to bring them places

If you want to change characters, you’re free to do so! Up until we start playing, at least.

I'm not saying I don't like it, frankly I don't know enough to know If I shouldn't like it. Boatman could top tier for all I know, could be essential to all party compositions

I'll just go with what fate gives me!

Awesome! You have your 120XP, if you want to spend it, you may.

Spending 100 xp to add 4 advances to agility

Awesome, you have 20XP left
