Just a few suggestions spring to mind, and they are pretty minor tweaks, suggested by the character write-up rules for Valdorian Age.

1) Since she is Heroic level, her DEX should actually cost 42 points.

2) Change her 22 DEX to a 20 DEX with +2 Lightning Reflexes. That avoids you needing to change the costing for her DEX and saves a point off her current total. If you give it a Limitation like "Not When Wearing Heavy Armor" at -1/2, it saves another point and explains why she never wears much.

3) Her Combat Luck could take the same Limitation, which drops the cost to 5 points (if you add the Limitation to the calculation for the original Talent from the Armor Power).

4) Her Levels in DCV could also use the same Limitation, which drops the cost to 5 points.

The 5 points saved could be used to buy Combat Luck up to 6/6, with the above Limitation. Alternately, she could add 3 points to INT and a point to BOD. Or she could take a Counterstrike martial maneuver for 4 points and reduce her build to 175 points.

All this means is that while lightly armored or unarmored, she is a quick-moving, light fighter, which seems to fit the build concept. If you don't like any of my suggestions, you just need to increase her total cost by 6 points to be legal.

Fixed Valeria's DEX and posted a corrected character sheet.

Steve, with your permission, I'd like to add your comments under "Designer's Notes". That okay?

[Steve]

Sure, that's fine.

Another great character interpretation. Makes me want to run a Conan game.

One typo: should read "PS: Mercenary 11-". Right now, the 11 is missing.

With the Conan write-ups lately I got interested in finding Conan info. I came across one site that did some D&D write-ups for some of the characters. If Susano or anybody else is interested the site is http://enworld.org/Inzeladun/conan.htm

You have "Climbing" at 14- for 2 points. I think you mean Climbing 13- for 3.

That gives her a total Powers/Skills/Talents/Perks cost of 88 and brings her total to 180.

Nice!

[Susano]

Actually, I'm making that Climbing 14- for 5 points.

She's 185 now.

Hmmm... I count 90 points of Powers/Talents/Perks/Skills. 21 points of Martial Arts, 7 points of Powers, 4 points of Perks, 6 points of Talents, 52 points of Skills. 21 + 7 + 4 + 6 + 52 = 90. Plus 92 points of Characteristics is 182 total.

Then again, I got up not too long ago.

I'll double check when I get the chance.

I think my brain fried working on John Carter....

Fixed all errors and point totals.
