Character Creation

May 22, 2018 9:34 pm
Thread to discuss character thoughts and idea’s. The way I’m thinking to start things is with you all already knowing one another and your party is in the Free City of Dawnsmoor looking for work as adventurers/sellswords but I’m happy to shift things in a different direction if anyone has any particular ideas they want to explore.

Looking through the books I'm thinking of playing a melee-tank Stone-dweller orc who considers the party her family. However if any of you already were lining up something similar I was also interested in playing something different as a catfolk.

I was looking at playing a Human Primalist. Hard to nail down the description...so here is a link. Kind of a Druid/Barbarian mix. Sturdy but not the most tank-y. A good back up combatant and a healer.

I'll go the odd route of randomizing...

Edit: Wanderer Gnome Scout it is... XD...

They look good, only thing I'd say is you might want to adjust your XP spend a bit and put more into stats - after character gen you only get to improve each one once through use of the Dedication talent which is also a bit more pricey to pick up than in the Star Wars lines of games due to the way the talent pyramid works. You can submit the character to the game whilst you're working on it if you'd like.

I looked at it and did some test rolling on the site, and I agree. I rolled back all my skills to 1 and took Cunning up to 3.

Also, rolling for cash...

EDIT: Aw...I got a whammy...but actually it makes sense for my character to be broke.

If we had a lot of starting money wouldn't we start the adventure on vacation?

Good point!

Loving all the characters so far peeps. I'll be working on a few things for the game over the weekend now I've a better feel for how the party is shaping up and I'll be hoping to kick things off early next week.

Sounds great to me.

I've got my backstory set up, let me know if any of y'all have any specific ideas regarding the characters knowing each other.

Nya has been submitted.

I have updated my character's backstory. I chose an owlbear cub as her animal companion...and the shape she will change into with that talent, hope that is ok.

Here is a link to the way Prong will look transformed. The companion is much younger looking.

Prong came to the city young and looking for adventure. She tried making a living as a street performer, but she wasn't very good. Adventuring has proven more lucrative. So if someone feels like they might have picked up a stray kid...or fallen in with her career jump to adventuring...we can forge a party link around that.

Nya has spent a lot of time on the streets as well, she definitely would have taken a big-sister role to watching over Prong, if that works?

Hi guys, sorry for the delay in getting things started. Last week was a bit crazy so I was focusing on keeping the other games I’m running/in up to date before I started on anything else. Hoping to get things rolling on here later today/tomorrow.

Hey all, new player here! I'll be taking some time to read up on what's already happened before coming up with a character concept…but I usually play an agile magic user. I hope there's room for one of those here :p
